Tilie cried intermittently for nearly an hour before calming down, and when Roland put her on the sofa, she found that she had fallen asleep.When the two were separated, the tears and snot were even pulled a few filaments between the cheeks and the clothes.

So "no majesty" appearance naturally inconvenient to let the sleeping spell of the witch see, Roland thought, finally called Anna, with her to take Tili into the third floor of the castle bedroom.

After wiping her cheeks, Tiley's breathing was smooth, but there was still no sign of waking up, so she could see that she was really tired.Relying on busy work to paralyze herself, such a shock treatment is not uncommon, but she was not a moment to rest after learning the news of the ashes sacrifice.

"Sleep with her tonight," sighed Roland, "and be most afraid of being alone at such times."Now it's up to you to take care of her."

"Don't worry, I can feel her feelings one or two, and I know what to do."Anna nodded, “What about you?”

"I'm going to sleep in the third border town, and I've been there all these days, and it's okay to stay a little longer."Roland replied, "And the news of the victory of Operation Torch should have been known to them earlier - I think the ancient witches have been waiting for this day for a long time."

“Hmm.”Anna came up and kissed his cheek, "Although it kind of doesn't want you to leave, but these things are really more important..."

"I'm sorry, but you're back from the front."

"Don't say anything stupid, my lord, there will be long."

When Roland came to the door, Anna stopped him again.

"Well, don't forget to call the Nightingale," she said earnestly. "The only thing in this city that can't be an accident is you."

Looking at each other's clear eyes, Roland should go down and cover the door.

...

With a large team of guards who had just entered the third border town, Pasha appeared in front of him for the first time.

"Shhh, is there any news coming back from the front?"How is the situation?"

From the delicate need to swing all over the other party, you can know that she is at this moment of dissatisfaction and turmoil.

Roland also had no intention of selling the gate, and replied bluntly, "We have won a complete victory - the devil on the plains has been cleared, the demer has not been able to escape back, and now Tachira is in the control of the First Army."

Pasha’s tentacles stood still in an instant.

After a few seconds of silence, she said excitedly, “Is that true!Lord, please forgive my impudence... I am not doubting you, but I really don’t know what to say—can you tell me more details?"

After more than four hundred years of tempering, there is very little that has made such a big change in these high-order witch moods, and this is the first time Roland has seen Pasha’s fret, “Of course.”But—”

"Thank you, sire, for telling you this good news!"But before he could finish, Pasha disappeared at the top of the cave.

Roland paused for a moment, and finally shook his head helplessly.

And when he entered the underground hall, it was not only Pasha, El Kwan, and Celine, but all the remaining witches of the gods and punishments had gathered in the middle of the hall, lined up in a straight line, waiting for him to open their mouths with one face and expectation.

On the contrary, Roland did not do well to complete the second half of the sentence.

"Let it go," the Nightingale whispered, "or tell Pasha alone with conscious communication."

It can only be so.He nodded, taking a step forward, and began to tell the story of the final battle and the outcome – although detailed statistical reports have not yet been released and there are many omissions in the leaf relay, the data and gains and losses are not important to them.

For the survivors who have been waiting for more than four centuries, victory is the most important thing.

By the time he had finished the little news, the crowd had already boiled over.

The cheers were endless, and many witches burst into tears, but whether they were crying or laughing, everyone expressed the same feeling.

A joy of breaking free from bondage after centuries of silence.

"Pardon me for the disrespect and offending you," Eli said, coming to him and bowing down deeply, "from this day on, there is no need for a united front.You are the only ruler of Tachira and where our will is."

Pasha and Celine did not interject, apparently acquiescing to her statement.

It is also tantamount to acknowledgment that Tachila will henceforth be an integral part of the kingdom of the Greysburg.

Roland nodded and accepted that Eli had only set up the Lord's Presence.

“There’s another thing I have to tell you,” he said, concentrating on telling the three of Eleanor’s news.

“Yes... it was her.Pasha slowly.

To Roland’s surprise, they didn’t show much emotional fluctuation.

“You... you already know?”He couldn't stop asking.

“No, we were just ready.El Wei calmly said, "Ambush squad is premeditated by the devil, if it is the era of the Federation, there is basically no possibility of survival."It is fortunate to be able to save everyone at such a cost."

“You may not understand, but death is a common thing for us."After all, everyone is a person who has voluntarily survived through the fusion of soul instruments and carriers, and this process is equivalent to having been screened by death, let alone the heavy defeat that the war of God's will is facing."The only thing we fear is a meaningless death."

“And Elena just made the choice that every taqira warrior would make,” Eli said at last, “so you don’t have to worry about it.”"

So... is this consoling?

Roland felt a little sad in his heart, and did not know what to say for a moment.

“Of course, this does not mean that we will not be sad for the passing of our companions, but the war has taught us to exercise restraint.”Pasha looked at the still-celebrating witches, "I will tell them about this--but at this moment, let them enjoy the joy of victory.""

...

Five days later.

With the return of the frontline troops, the news of the victory of the Northern Expedition gradually spread in the winter city.

Although it was not as intuitive as the defeat of the evil beast or the Duke of Lane, nor did it bring the whole city to celebrate, but the people still pieced together the real face of the enemy from the family neighbors who returned from the army - fierce, powerful, fearless, far from the mixed species and the Duke's Knights can compare.Coupled with the testimony of eyewitnesses to the terrorist attack, a powerful enemy image that completely matched the devil in hell was gradually erected.

What's more, it is exaggerated into a legendary disaster demon, and the description of the height of the hundred feet, the mouth of the flame is common, and quickly become one of the hottest topics in the streets.

And even such an enemy is still defeated by the First Army, and still more than thousands of miles away, this argument greatly excites the hearts of the people - if even the devil from hell can not compete with the Grey Fort army, who is their opponent?

At the same time, the "Grey Fort Weekly" also made efforts to publish the accounts of frontline soldiers in large sections, and to restore the entire war process.

For a time, I signed up to participate in the first army and expand the territory for His Majesty's slogan to the whole city.

But the top of Winterfell knows exactly what the real challenge they are about to face is.

Public Cemetery in the West.

From the fall of the first tombstone in the evil moon five years ago, this has changed from an overgrown wasteland to a cemetery park now covered with greenery.

Today, 426 new tombstones have been added here.

Most of them are empty, because the limited capacity is unable to transport all the bodies back, but no one will feel that the victims have been abandoned - the name on the tombstone records their honors and merits.

The ashes and Eleanor’s stone tablets are also among them.

Like other steles, they did not look any different, the only difference was that there was a broken hilt in front of the ash monument.

“Honoring!”The iron axe spoke loudly, then raised his arm.

All the high-ranking officials followed the military salute, even if their official positions and positions were above the vast majority of soldiers.

It is a tribute and a police note.

The battle of God’s will is far from over.

Immediately after the funeral, Roland called Barov and said, "Call all the ministers, and I have a new task to explain."

This challenge has only just begun.
