She had never even enjoyed the beauty of love.
Roland was certainly an ideal partner, but he already had Sylph, and she didn’t want to be a howrecker.
She didn’t reject Roland in her heart, but her upbringing didn’t allow her to act that way.
Looking at Alina’s distracted gaze, the corners of Roland’s lips slightly curled up.
He guessed right; Alina must have been so shocked that she was speaking nonsense.
He had no intention of taking advantage of soone in such a vulnerable state.
He rely created an atmosphere making Alina think that he would, and then—
People are always willing to compromise. If you directly ask Alina to tell the truth, she might still resist, but if you let her now stay the night, she’d start thinking about how to articulate the results of the divination appropriately.
The Jin Yuan People also like to compromise.
As Alina’s gaze gradually sharpened, Roland felt a chill in his heart.
Is this guy really going to keep her promise?
That’s about enough; after all, he was a married man, and this joke was getting too big to handle.
He cleared his throat and said seriously, "Alina, I know you’ve seen sothing terrible. Let’s face it together. Our fates are already bound under the Soul Blood Link. I have the right to know!"
Alina let out a small gasp of surprise, slowly lifted her head, and looked into Roland’s clear eyes, instantly realizing that Roland never intended to take advantage of her vulnerability. He simply wanted to know the truth.
Seeing Roland being such a gentleman, she breathed a sigh of relief, her worried heart finally at ease.
Feeling relieved yet strangely perturbed.
Is my face and figure so unattractive that you didn’t even consider taking advantage?
She felt a bit inexplicably annoyed, and then a face more beautiful erged in her vision, making her even angrier.
Empress Sylph was watching her in the void, with a mocking smile on her lips.
The fire of anger in Alina’s heart dissipated.
Yes, his wife is Sylph, the one who could challenge the feminine allure of the Ancient Era Elf Imperial Family.
Thinking of Sylph, Alina’s heart cald down a lot.
Just like losing to Sofia wasn’t embarrassing, losing to Sylph in a competition of charm was also easy to accept.
When she looked up again, her expression had returned to calmness.
Seeing her swift changes of weather, Roland shrugged, once again firm in his belief.
The thoughts of a girl are beyond guessing, truly unfathomable.
After this ordeal, Alina had her fill, feeling calm at last, ready to start the storytelling phase.
She pondered for a mont and decided to be straightforward.
"I saw Sofia... ascend to divinity." Even though a whole day had passed, Alina’s voice still trembled slightly.
With a True God arising in the world, there’s no need to say what fate awaits her enemies.
Facing soone like Sofia openly, both Roland and herself were like mantises trying to stop the rolling wheel of history.
Foolish and overestimating themselves.
Roland’s expression wasn’t too surprised.
It must have been quite a shocking scene to render Alina senseless and to make her consider ending her maidenhood with a decent-looking man.
He just didn’t expect it to be that shocking.
Sofia’s ascension to divinity...
Even if it were true, it doesn’t an he couldn’t do sothing about it, could he?
Last ti during the Ascension to Divinity, there were Light, Feng Rao, and Nature, the three Goddesses. It’s quite plausible for more gods to ascend in this era’s final epoch.
Seeing Roland’s calm deanor, Alina was shocked enough that she couldn’t close her open mouth, her pink lips slightly parted and closed, making her appear less sorrowful and more adorable, which strangely made Roland feel a bit hungry.
Although Alina couldn’t compare to Sylph, she was among those at the pinnacle of the world’s allure with a charm of her own.
Perhaps hearing the prophecy of Sofia’s ascension made Roland still act tough, but in his heart, he felt a bit of the sa suffocation as Alina did yesterday.
Her successful ascension would make her enemies just stepping stones.
Roland was also contemplating how to die with dignity, how not to leave regrets in his final monts, possibly making Alina’s idea not seem so mad after all?
It wasn’t that his mind wasn’t strong enough; it’s just that Alina’s prophecy was too discouraging.
He asked sowhat unwillingly: "In your prophecy, what is our end?"
Alina shook her head in confusion.
"At this point, what’s there to hide from? I can handle it."
Roland tried to keep a determined smile, contemplating what rhetoric to use to offset Alina’s defeatist pessimism.
If Sofia truly ascended, Alina’s targets would include a newly ascended God and the unpredictable fate, it being accurate would be the real surprise.
Alina sighed and spoke softly: "I didn’t see our future, so we don’t have..."
"So we may not fail."
Roland cut off her defeatist view, firmly raising a finger to refute:
"Alina, the divination result was altered."
"Why?"
"Your divination targets include , include Sofia, normally, the backlash could directly kill us."
Alina’s eyes brightened.
She had indeed been fooled.
When predicting the backlash, she only considered Roland, thus judged that there would be no backlash fatal enough to kill.
If Sofia did appear, even adding a few more people to the Soul Blood Link wouldn’t be enough for a family combo attack.
"I’m so dumb. If not for your reminder, I would’ve already despaired."
Alina laughed and shook her head, muttering self-deprecatingly: "Prophecies included soone who shouldn’t appear, making the prophecy result naturally false. It seems a powerful being intervened with the prophecy result."
