As a villain, I really don't want to be pursued by the heroine.

"Haven't you seen it too? Roy has already put himself in danger for them more than once."

"Perhaps when they grow up, they will bring together various forces to become Roy's strength, but how long will that take? What should we do before that?"

"The False King's Blood already has a troubled fate, and now he's drawn deeper and deeper into the fate of these extraordinary individuals. Blessed by good fortune, the False King's Blood has managed to hold on until now, but who can guarantee that he can continue to hold on forever?"

Simon turned around and smiled, but his tone was extremely cold, like the whisper of a devil.

"Lady Saint, you don't want to see your most beloved person meet the most tragic end, do you?"

Alice's eyes widened, her heart trembled, and she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, her whole body cold.

Chapter 88: The Situation He Hoped For

Alice's hands, placed on her knees, clenched slightly, and her breathing became heavier.

Simon wasn't exaggerating.

Even though Roy always downplayed his experiences and Alice rarely witnessed his bloody battles, the fact was that he had been on the verge of death several times.

The rebellion of the prince of the Lionheart Kingdom, the terrorist attack during the Blue Trial, the war against the Cassandra family, and the battle to retake Snowwind Castle on the border of the empire.

Every time, Roy made it through. But who can guarantee that he can keep going?

Perhaps his blood vessels were shattered, perhaps his life force was fading, perhaps he was unconscious...

Especially the most recent time, when Roy was attacked by the [School of the Undead] while he was in a state of amnesia. If it weren't for the girls present who risked their lives to save him, if Roy hadn't had the means to defend himself against the soul attack...

Recalling the pain that the false king's blood had brought to Roy, Alice felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife, so painful that she could hardly breathe.

It was at this moment that Simon spoke again.

"But you can save him."

"As long as you join the Holy Light Church, you can command the entire Eastern Continent to support him."

"You can also reveal to him the secrets of the [False King]'s advancement to a higher rank."

"If you're still not convinced, after you unleash your true strength and reach a higher level, you can fight for him personally."

"The fledgling Lionheart Princess couldn't do it, the Elven Nightingale couldn't do it, the powerful but limited power of the dual-school witch, the Ice Rose, couldn't do it either..."

He sat back down in front of Alice, put his hands on his chin, and said sincerely, "Only you can save him."

Joining the church meant parting ways with Roy.

Alice's first reaction was to refuse, but when she was about to say something, she felt something stuck in her throat and couldn't make a sound.

Because, isn't what Simon described exactly what Roy hoped for?

"If one day you become a great man, please protect me well."

Although she didn't say it explicitly, Alice had already sensed Roy's hope.

He has always been resisting the fate of the false king's blood.

Roy had come to this Saint Trial to learn the secrets of the [False King] breaking through to a higher level, hoping to gain the power of the Holy Light Church and to ascend to the position of Saint himself.

If this is what he wants...

"I need time to think about it."

"Of course, this is a serious matter and we can't make a decision lightly."

Simon narrowed his eyes: "But please don't discuss this with Roy."

"Ugh?"

Last time, Simon misjudged the relationship between Alice and Roy, which led to the failure of persuasion.

But in the final analysis, it was just because of incorrect intelligence and preconceived notions.

Cherubim will never make the same mistake again.

"I understand your bond. He will surely be reluctant to let you go and deny your plan to join the church. You will miss this opportunity to change your destiny."

"He's a gentle man who would be willing to sacrifice himself for you, but that's not what you want to see, is it?"

Simon sighed deeply, as if he felt the same way. "I know this is a difficult choice. If I stay with him, I can't protect him. If I protect him, I can't stay with him. But fate is sometimes so cruel."

“True love is letting go, not possessing.”

Alice was silent.

As a maid, it is natural to repay the master's kindness.

As a saint, it is natural for her to protect her guards.

As a girl...

Alice, who has only a vague understanding of love, has no idea what love is.

However, she instinctively didn't want to see Roy continue on his arduous journey of the false king's blood.

True love is letting go, not possessing.

In this case, even if I have to sacrifice myself, even if I can't be with him... as long as Roy can be happy, that will be the best ending.

Even before Alice answered, Simon could see her determination in her bitter eyes.

Simon smiled and said, "I will come to pick you up at dawn tomorrow."

"The choice is yours. For him, I believe you will make the right choice."

--------

That night.

Alice did not inform Roy first, but met with several girls first and told them her decision.

Joined the Holy Light Church and bid farewell to Roy.

Separated by two continents and two forces, he was trapped alone in the world's most powerful force. It would be difficult for him to even meet Roy in the future.

Even though the two of them are still bound together, it also means that their relationship will end here.

"are you serious?"

"Is this guy under some kind of spell?"

Jon Snow and Lyanna couldn't believe that the little maid who wanted to stick to Roy all day long would say such ridiculous words.

"Wait, wait, wait!" Charlotte was fucked so hard that her CPU was smoking.

Holding her forehead, Charlotte was puzzled. "Let me ask you, why did you join the Church of Holy Light?"

Alice repeated Simon's words.

"So, in order to protect him from the fate of the false king's blood, Alice had no choice but to join the church."

However, once these words were spoken, the atmosphere froze.

Charlotte was the first to change her expression. She stepped forward and grabbed Alice's collar with one hand.

Anger burned in her crimson eyes: "Are you looking down on me?"

"Without you, we can't protect Roy? Is that what you mean, huh?!"

The pressure of Sequence 6 surged out uncontrollably, and the terrifying heat distorted the air.

Despite Charlotte's wrath, Alice calmly asked, "...Isn't it?"

"I'm not picking on you guys."

"Everyone here, including me, our power is not enough to protect him from the fate of the false king's blood, right?"

Lyanna frowned slightly and clenched her chest.

Not to mention protecting Roy, her demon bloodline could actually bring danger to Roy. Even if she ignored the demons, the Dark Demon Leader was secretly coveting her power.

Jon Snow, who had witnessed Roy almost die in front of him, was speechless and lowered his head heavily.

The mentor should have fulfilled his responsibility to protect the apprentice.

A Sequence 5 might be able to protect him temporarily, but Roy faced far more than just one or two powerful individuals; he faced countless cults. Furthermore, he was bound to face a battle with the Imperial Family. How could he protect him when he was too busy to do anything else?

Even Charlotte was stung by Alice's blunt words, and her anger escalated: "You...!"

However, before Charlotte could explode, Nia clapped her hands and interrupted her scolding.

"That makes sense."

"But what I want to ask is, do you really think that abandoning him and leaving the church is the best outcome for him?"

Alice lowered her eyes and said bitterly, "There's nothing we can do about it..."

I used to be just a maid, but now I am a saint.

Even if I leave, it's enough as long as I can be his strength.

The blessing of the saint, isn't that what Roy has always wanted?

"Anyway, he still has you guys, right?"

Nia's expression trembled, and then she sneered, "Okay."

"Then even if we're in love with Roy and he completely forgets about you, it doesn't matter, right?"

"......It doesn't matter."

The words fell.

No one expected that a solid slap would land on Alice's face.

Chapter 89 Alice is indeed a bad kid

No one expected that Alice would be slapped, and no one expected that the slap would come from Nia, who was closest to Alice.

"What the hell are you crazy about?!"

"Let me go, let me go! This is called the Ge Xiu Zheng Palm!"

The elf girl, who was held by Charlotte from behind, kicked her long white legs and screamed wildly.

Nia glared at Alice, her anger even higher than Charlotte's: "What do you mean it doesn't matter?!"

"What fate? How could Roy just leave you all alone? You're talking about taking on everything for him. Do you think you're the hero of this tragedy? He can't survive without you?!"

Alice ignored the burning pain on her face and said calmly, "Whatever you say, I won't let him bear the fate of the false king's blood again."

"Hey, you're not done yet, are you? I think you deserve a slap! No, you deserve a slap in the face..."

Charlotte couldn't help but complain: "No, you didn't even get the tools to commit the crime?!"

"Why not just strip her naked and tie her to Roy's bed?!"

Just as the situation was becoming increasingly chaotic, the door opened.

Everyone's movements froze.

"What are you arguing about?"

Before Alice could explain, Nia screamed, "Oh my gosh! Your maid said she'd join the Church of Holy Light for you!"

Roy looked at Alice: "Really?"

Alice was silent for a while before nodding silently.

She was a little afraid to look Roy in the eye.

“Actually, I heard everything.”

Normally, Roy wouldn't use [Calm as Still Water] to eavesdrop on girls' private conversations.

However, ever since meeting Simon, Alice has looked distraught and something is clearly wrong.

In all the time they've been together, Alice has never looked so sad.

And it turns out that now is not the time to worry about means.
