The Goddess's War Follow-up (before the Goddess's Wedding)

Sardinia's winter is always very short.

The fog and rain gradually became warm and the thin ice and snow melted away. The lake and swamps burst out crisply at night and the extended daylight. The clear water overflowed from the gaps in the ice, and rippled with silver ripples in the blue sky. The land became soft and moist, and with the plants that stretched out, covered with tender yellow fuzz. People's roofs became wet, and under the sunlight that formed a right angle to the ground, it turned into a steam with a slight brick and tiles with aromatic aroma. Birds and small animals that disappeared in the cold came out of their very hidden nests, busy among beams, columns, eaves, and woods and grasslands.

"With spring coming, factors that are outbreaks and epidemics such as influenza are increasing, and the low temperatures feared by the strong poxvirus no longer exist, the epidemic will be counterattacked again... And when the human body catches a cold, the respiratory vasoconstricts, the blood supply decreases, and the local resistance decreases, and the virus is prone to invasion - so," Alex said calmly: "In this case, naked swimming is a very dangerous thing."

Not far behind him, Wilderger laughed out loud, obviously he felt very interesting about it.

The epidemic of fierce pox virus has subsided with the gradual retreat of winter. Even with new drugs that can effectively curb the spread of the epidemic and worsen it and the vaccines developed and produced in the shortest time, in the cities where the epidemic broke out in Western Sardinia, there are still countless people wearing all-black mourning clothes waiting for their emotions and bodies to recover slowly in grief. The fierce pox virus has claimed hundreds of thousands of lives, and left traces on the faces and bodies of more people that modern medicine cannot easily erase.

The pain has ended. Although it takes time to forget, the people of Sardinia obviously need some more exciting things to drive away the shadow of the plague. The cities, residential areas, buildings, and rooms were opened one by one. The bells in the church were ringing, and people crowded in the Thanksgiving Mass. Then people walked onto the streets, danced in the square, hugged each other without any scruples in the public eye. Restaurants and bars were quickly filled with people. The boss didn't mind taking out the last bottle of inventory to share with the happy survivors... After the carnival for several hours or even days, life gradually returned to its original track.

On the track, people re-entered their work and worked more intensely and passionately - but this does not mean that they have forgotten Alex, their crown prince. If the people of Sardinia used to only recognize and support, then now they are fanatical support. There are various news about the crown prince constantly appearing in the newspapers. He returned to the capital, and he still lives in the Crown Castle. Her Majesty the Queen is gradually empowering the crown prince to handle more royal affairs. He will continue to serve as a visiting professor in the course of ancient literature and alchemy at the National University. He is still one of the permanent members of the Ancient Library of the National University... and his emotional problems.

In addition to Anne, who often attends various evening parties with the crown prince, and Lily, who has been under the care of the Sallieri family - Barbara, far away in Beverly, is often mentioned, but there is no malice in this. It is just that the Sardinian people once again realized that their crown prince is already an adult male in his early 30s, and should have a noble and beautiful fiancée. It is best to get married quickly and have an heir. Given that Sardinian has revised the royal inheritance law, both boys and girls are good, and it is best to follow Sardinian's happy family standards, three men and two women.

The undead from the alien plane was unanimous. He could only maintain the support of the people to him until he got what he needed - as for the reasons and methods, as long as they did not have much impact on his actions and thinking, they could endure it - but what made him feel strange was that more and more human women were young, full of charm and passion, such as the one he faced now - if he remembered correctly, he was attending a charity afternoon dinner held in a greenhouse botanical garden today.

The materials here are fresh and rich. The lich who decided to take this opportunity to do a comprehensive collection work refused to accompany his master. He walked into the layers of plant curtains alone (Wilderger followed).

He originally wanted to play Hermes once (Hermes in Greek mythology, inventor of spells, guide of the dead, protector of merchants and thieves), holding a double snake staff. In the 7th century, Hermes was associated with alchemy. The alchemist was regarded as the descendants of Hermes, a craftsman of alchemy. The double snake staff had a clear and mysterious connection with it); as a result, he met the water demon who lured Selas ("Sulas and the Water Monsters" is the work of the British painter Waterhouse: On a moonlit night, several flower-like water demons seduced beautiful boys half-naked in the water lily pond - Selas, the attendant of the fearless hero Helakules in Greek mythology, went into the water. Finally, Selas could not resist the temptation, went into the water, and disappeared forever).

Unfortunately, what is projected from the dense forest leaves is not the frosty moonlight, but the sunlight of broken gold. The banshee is not facing Seulas, a passionate young man who is not deeply involved in the world, but an immortal lich in her 270s, so she can only stand up with regret - her body is as white as milk, plump as pearls, her eyes are blurred, and her voice is sweet and hoarse.

"Thank you for your concern." When the naked young woman stood up from the dark blue pool water, the white and purple water lilies floated gently: "Sorry for disturbing, Your Highness." She took the velvet on the branches - the whole piece of velvet, wrapped around her like a Greek woman.

The journey was also straightforward.

Wilderger blinked at Alex.

Lily saw a girl of about twenty years of age walking into the crowd from the edge of the greenhouse. Her brown hair was already tied up and was tied high behind her head. The hair mesh of gold and silver threads intertwined on the round bun, matching it was a dress named "Jingdan". It consisted of three colors of brocade, red and brown.

She was obviously not used to this outfit, and from time to time she took every small opportunity to examine her clothes and accessories, including the shadow reflected by the silver pot on the dining table. This girl probably first entered the social circle. She was a little late in age and didn't choose very well. The dress was also a regrettable place. Its texture was light and the bright and luxurious brocade was woven with metal wire, so there were always light spots in every place.

When I turned around, I could possibly be considered a perfect match with the magnificent gold-plated leaf-shaped decoration and the brilliance of the crystal chandeliers, but in this plump leaves with countless dark green, turquoise, light green, tender green... and pure sunshine, it seemed too dazzling - especially the theme of this afternoon dinner was charity and prayer, and almost everyone's clothes were simple, simple, and even dull - at least in terms of style and color...

In such occasions and moments, the ones that don't have to worry about making mistakes are black and white, such as the milky white cashmere dress on Anne, which is soft, warm, and quite decent; from the corner of her eyes, Lily saw Prime Minister Agnelli's daughter quietly bringing the girl to a bush of white, red and golden orchids intertwined with breathtaking orchids, and after a brief conversation, she put her originally on her arm, embroidered with exquisite patterns, on her half-naked shoulders, and now she looks much better. Lily shook her head, she

I was not so lucky when I entered this circle. Even with Barbara's careful teaching, the girl from the small fishing village on the coast of Western Sardinia would find that she was out of place with everyone. Fortunately, her nerves were tough enough to treat herself as a new trend advocate and continue to seek as many opportunities and benefits as possible from the targets that were difficult to approach - for those who need help in urgent need, a temporary embarrassment and cold reception are really not a big deal compared to their crumbling fire of life.

Of course, noble purpose does not mean that you can do whatever you want at other people's banquets, neat, beautiful, and appropriate dressing is a kind of respect for the owner. Occasional mistakes can be forgiven. The repeated mistakes, or intentional rudeness and rudeness are enough to make all social circles close the door to you - but Lily now doesn't make any mistakes in this regard. She is wearing a moss-green crocheted hollow cardigan, with a black wool long-sleeved dress inside, which looks solemn and vibrant.

Anne shrugged in a way that was not easy to detect, and then walked gracefully towards Lily, the beautiful girl, like a member of these gorgeous plants.

When I got closer, I realized that she was trying her best...not so obviously letting her eyes follow a banshee who had just walked into the crowd.

"What happened?"

"I think I saw what I thought would happen in Beverly." Lily murmured with her hot gaze. "I just want to see Alex."

Anne turned around and looked around naturally - including the banshee with a little drop of water at the end of her hair.

"It's normal." She didn't notice how Lily saw Alex who had already entered the plant community: "Alex is the crown prince."

"I haven't...

"In the past, he had a unclear life experience and a future uncertain. Now, as long as the queen abdicates, he will be the unquestionable King Sardinian." Anne smiled dangerously, "This is enough for girls to continue, you can never imagine what a future king's proposal means. Even if you can't become a future queen, those girls who once appeared before the real queen can get good returns - an amazing wealth, a noble title, and perhaps a manor, depending on her performance." Anne made a gesture: "And a correct answer - no."

"Yes," Lily whispered, "I understand."

"Thank you." She also said that she knew that Anne was helping herself, which was not necessarily clear about Barbara and others. There were rules of the game about the upper class. Although she had heard that enjoying a night of love with the prince or prince could also bring some glory to the ladies and ladies, as if from then on they had some capital to become people with special identities in the aristocratic class. But that was in Beverly, and the royal members involved also came from Ross or Odin.

"But...whether...whether his future wife?"

"Ah..." Anne continued to smile without saying a word.

"I was really brave when I used to be."

"…right." Anne thought for a while and added: "very right."
