How to Save Humanity After Transmigrating into a Villainess Princess? Chapter 376 : Someone's Going to Have a Sleepless Night, But
"All soldiers! Don't panic! Hold your positions!"
"Ah!"
Elashia, who had just fallen asleep not long ago, was startled awake by Ileina's sudden shout and cried out in alarm.
The newly awakened Elashia didn't complain to Ileina for waking her up, because she knew Ileina must have had a nightmare...
She quickly moved closer to Ileina's side, grasped Ileina's small hand and asked:
"Lena... are you alright?"
"Huff... huff..."
Ileina didn't look well at all.
Not only could her extrely unstable inner state be clearly perceived from her rapid breathing, but her trembling azure eyes were also shaking uncontrollably along with her hurried breaths...
"Sorry... Shia... I..."
Seeing that Ileina, despite being in such a terrible state, still wanted to apologize for disturbing her sleep, Elashia quickly embraced Ileina gently and comforted her with soft, tender words:
"I'm fine... I'm the most idle person in all of Northern Fire... even if I don't sleep at all today, it wouldn't matter to ..."
Elashia whispered softly in Ileina's ear:
"Lena... did you have a nightmare..."
"Ha... ha... yes."
Ileina, who had finally managed to calm her breathing in Elashia's gentle embrace, still spoke to Elashia with a trace of fear on her face:
"I... had a rather unpleasant dream..."
"In the dream... our military formation had completely collapsed, and no matter what I did, I couldn't stabilize the soldiers..."
"Alright, stop thinking about those things from your dream."
Looking at Ileina's fearful eyes, Elashia comforted her gently:
"That was just a dream..."
"Mm... I know... I know..."
Ileina in Elashia's arms still appeared extrely frightened, as if the events that occurred in her dream were all real...
Seeing Ileina's face full of fear, Elashia felt truly heartbroken...
After all, she was Elasian and didn't understand the affairs of the Holy Kingdom that well.
She wasn't clear about just how powerful the Blood Clan's army truly was, but she knew very clearly—whatever could make this brave Holy Princess before her feel afraid definitely wasn't an easy enemy to deal with...
In the storyline, the liberation of the Holy Kingdom should have been many years later, when the Blood Clan's power had already been significantly weakened through wars with the northern demi-human nations.
But now the situation was different...
The current conflict between the Blood Clan and the northern demi-human nations hadn't lasted very long, so the forces they could mobilize would inevitably be much stronger than in the ga...
Thinking of this, Elashia's heart couldn't help but be shrouded with so fear...
The Blood Clan in the ga was quite cruel...
Elashia could still rember several CGs from the ga depicting wars between humans and the Blood Clan...
The humans who died in battle had almost all beco mummies... that appearance was terrifying just to look at...
Although Elashia was now doing her utmost to calm the fear in Ileina's heart, in truth she was also extrely frightened right now...
Holding Ileina tightly in her arms, Elashia asked softly:
"Lena... are you afraid?"
Ileina thought for a mont, then replied to Elashia:
"I... honestly, I'm quite afraid."
But just after saying this, she continued with a firm tone:
"But... my fear will never appear on the battlefield."
"No matter how much fear I have in my heart, I will only expose it in front of those I can trust most, and will never expose it in front of my enemies."
Hearing Ileina's firm voice from within her arms, Elashia nodded approvingly.
This was the embodint of idealism from the ga...
Although Ileina was also human, and facing a powerful enemy she inevitably felt fear in her heart, she would ultimately only reveal this fear beside her intimate friends and companions, and would never let this fear affect her combat...
But undeniably—right now, whether it was her or Ileina, their hearts were almost completely filled with fear...
In such a state, there was no way they could get a good night's sleep.
It didn't matter if she couldn't sleep, but it would be problematic if Ileina, who had things to handle every day, couldn't sleep well...
Temporarily releasing Ileina from her embrace, Elashia looked into her eyes and asked:
"Right now... are you still afraid?"
Ileina nodded with lingering fear.
"Mm... the scenes from the dream... are still so vivid..."
"Mm..."
Elashia slowly nodded.
Just as she was about to say sothing, the system's voice rang out again.
[System Task Issued]
[Task One: Take Ileina to find Dorothy—"In that case... should we go find Big Sister Dorothy?"]
[Task Reward: Heart Purification Spell (Magic)]
[Task Two: Do your best to comfort Ileina, whose heart still hasn't cald down, even though you're also very afraid right now—"Lena... it's okay, it's okay..."]
[Task Reward: Mage level increased by one]
[Task Three: Show Ileina an evil smile and suggest doing sothing interesting to dispel the fear—"Lena... why don't we... why don't we do sothing interesting right now... it can also keep us warm..."]
[Task Reward: Warrior level increased by one]
Hmm...
Elashia, who had gained experience from choices involving Ileina, automatically ignored the "most stable" Task Three.
Then... between Task Two and Task One...
The Heart Purification Spell wasn't a particularly powerful magic, and under Alexandra's previous instruction she had already basically grasped its fundantals, so the importance of this spell shouldn't be much different from increasing mage level by one...
Faced with these two options that posed no danger, Elashia hesitated slightly before choosing Task One.
The reason was simple—she was originally a bit afraid of the dark, and now thinking about the Blood Clan made her even more frightened...
She didn't want to spend the night worrying and being scared together with Ileina until morning.
So Elashia asked Ileina beside her:
"In that case... should we go find Big Sister Dorothy?"
"Eh? Go find Master?"
Ileina was stunned for a mont.
"Mm... do you rember, when we were little, whenever we got scared at night we would go find Big Sister Dorothy to sleep with?"
Looking at Ileina who still hadn't reacted, Elashia smiled:
"Previously when we Elasians faced the impact of the Beast Tide, because the battlefield was truly too bloody, I couldn't sleep well for several consecutive days..."
"But, just like when we were little, as long as I was beside Big Sister Dorothy, I wasn't afraid at all..."
"..."
Ileina didn't respond, only recalling the daily life she had lived with Dorothy when they were young...
When they encountered bad people who bullied them, Big Sister Dorothy would hang those guys up and beat them without rcy...
When they encountered problems that neither Elashia nor Ileina knew how to solve, Dorothy, who had received so education, could solve them correctly...
Whether when sick, confused, or being bullied, Master was always so reliable...
