The Devil Inside

Leila is really...

I do my own thing, without any worries.

Han Solo lifted the quilt, stood up and dressed, and she didn't know how to avoid him. She sat at the end of the bed and suddenly said, "I found something very strange."

Han Solo glanced away.

"Rachel's seal seems to have changed, and turned into a---"--a very strange seal. "Lila frowned, "It feels like it's of a high grade, but I haven't seen it before. Did she go out last night to reset the seal?"

"If you're worried, you can go ask her in person. She's in the next room."

"Well, can I just ask directly?"

Han Solomon said, "Why not?"

"Isn't the Flower Sword Saint living in Rachel's body? The changes in the imprint must be related to her. Rachel didn't say anything, maybe it was her request."

Leila's thoughts were deeper than Han Solo's.

She must have thought about this matter carefully.

"I was wondering if this was a conspiracy. Isn't it common for an old witch to take over the body of a young woman?"

Han Solo was speechless: "Are you overthinking it? The mark in Rachel's body should be the 'Mark of the Void', a legendary mark, exclusive to the Flower Sword Master, it is harmless."

[Why does Han know so much! ]

[Could it be that Rachel told him? But Rachel didn't tell me anything! ]

[Raid was successfully launched, free points +4 (from Leila). ]

The words Jinsha condensed on the floor.

Lyra looked at Han Solo suspiciously.

Han Solo was helpless and said directly: "Rachel didn't tell me that I was the one who took you to find the Flower Sword Saint. How could I not know the details?"

"Oh, that's right."

Leila was relieved, but soon frowned again: "How do you know what I'm thinking?"

Han Solo smiled: "Your thoughts are written all over your face."

"Is it that obvious?"

Leila muttered, then asked, "So, everything is fine?"

"It's okay. The Seal of the Void is the foundation of the Flower Sword Technique, and the upper limit of the Flower Sword Technique is very high. Let's put it this way, Rachel now has the potential to reach the peak of humanity, which is no longer comparable to other descendants of the Darkwood family."

In the game, the inheritance of the Flower Sword Saint was given to "Leon"

Until the adventure began and the decisive battle with the Primordial Demon King took place, Leon still had not been recognized by the Flower Sword Saint and had not inherited her mantle.

It was Han Solo who took the initiative to complete the side quest, which allowed him to exchange for the "Seal of the Void" and master the Flower Sword Technique.

Han Solo originally thought that it would take some time for Rachel to settle down and work hard before she could gain recognition.

Now it seems...

The Flower Sword Saint is also a person who looks down on people and treats them differently. He is a bit snobbish, but snobbery is a good thing.

He was relieved that Rachel had gained something.

"It's okay, I'll pinch it."

Leila breathed a sigh of relief and went to the living room with Han.

"Good morning, Leila."

Viola was up and reading the newspaper in the living room.

Her long blond hair was neatly combed, and her face was lightly made up. She wore a black and red dress with gorgeous embroidery and a pair of round-toed high heels.

Seeing Leila and Han Solo, she greeted them with a smile.

Only half of it was played.

Viola still feels bad about Han Solo blowing her whistle yesterday and making their affair public.

She wasn't going to forgive him just yet.

Han Solo saw through her intentions and said with a smile, "Miss Viola, don't you want to say hello to me?"

"Hey, who's talking?"

Viola put down her newspaper and seemed surprised.

Looking at Leila with her delicate green eyes, she said again: "Leila, did you hear any strange noises?

There seems to be a ghost in this room. It might be a haunted house."

Leila was speechless: "Am I also a part of your PLAY?"

"childish!"

Han Solo shook his head and asked, "What time is it?"

"A little after eight." Viola laughed. "Lila, Rachel and I got up before seven. We dressed, showered and changed our clothes. We haven't had breakfast yet. Unlike that person who made an appointment with someone at nine and slept until now!"

"Isn't it nine o'clock yet?"

Han Solo said as he walked towards the bathroom.

Viola didn't even look up: "Don't go in. Rachel is taking a shower and the bathroom door lock is broken."

Ok.

Living with a woman is troublesome. Han Solo sat down at the other end of the sofa, and Viola put her legs on Han Solo's thighs without any hesitation.

"what time is it?"

Tielang Forward Base.

The former headquarters, now Lorenzo's office.

Lorenzo took out his pocket watch and glanced at it: "Eight fifty."

"Really? It's almost time."

Isabella dressed up and took the meeting very seriously.

The Imperial Vanguard was once a calling card of Elzlia.

It may not have a very good reputation, but no one can deny its influence. This is the sword of the king.

The sword is invincible. Even the hereditary ministers have to avoid its edge.

And she, Isabella, was the last captain of the Imperial Vanguard.

This seemingly supremely prestigious identity brought not admiration and glory, but hatred and contempt.

Not everyone is qualified to curry favor with the king's favorites, but anyone can step on a fallen dog.

This is true of everything in the world.

The ministers who had been threatened, targeted, and bullied by the imperial vanguard vented all their anger and resentment on Isabella, blocking all avenues of advancement and completely locking out her hopes of turning things around.

And those who had received the favor of the imperial vanguard were as timid as cicadas.

Coming to visit privately was the best treatment. Many people cut ties with Isabella directly, and even if she handed over a name card, she would not be allowed to enter their mansions, let alone ask for their support.

Isabella thinks...

Becoming Leila's teammate may be her only chance to turn things around.

She attached great importance to the upcoming meeting.

Chapter 169#168 Future Vision

Lorenzo was still wearing his pure white military uniform. He was the kind of boring guy who wore a military uniform even during the New Year.

He looked at his old boss.

Isabella seemed too serious anyway.

She wore a black top with flower sleeves and a lotus leaf collar, a burgundy corseted skirt, and all kinds of gorgeous decorations, including skirt belts and hairpins. She also wore shoulder ornaments and corsages. She looked no different even if she was attending a palace dinner.

He asked, “Is it necessary to be so formal?”

"It's etiquette."

Isabella responded casually.

Lorenzo laughed: "Captain, you used to be not very polite."

"People need to recognize the current situation and not live in the past."

This sentence.—

Lorenzo didn't like it very much and had no energy.

He sighed softly and said, "The old captain once said that I was the hope for the Empire's vanguard to become great again, but now it seems that was just his last words. Facts have proved that I am not a hope."

Isabella's eyes dimmed when she heard this.

My thoughts go back to that day.

The old captain was seriously injured and dying. All the cadres of the Imperial Vanguard gathered together, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.

After the doctor declared that there was nothing he could do, the old soldier had a final burst of life!

He raised his hand, pointed at Lorenzo who was standing next to Isabella and said, "I, I saw the future."

Everyone was stunned.

There was a heavy storm outside the window, and a loud thunderclap was heard, the light overshadowing the candlelight in the room.

The old captain held on to his last breath, and pointed his finger directly at Lorenzo: "Protect yourself. The future of the Empire's vanguard is in your hands!"

Subsequently.

He died.

After that, Lorenzo indeed showed his unparalleled talent and soon became a rising star that attracted much attention in the Kingdom of Erzlia.

Isabella had high hopes for him and did her best to support Lorenzo.

pity···

"it's not your fault."

Isabella's smile was very helpless.

She looked at Lorenzo and continued, "Too many people heard the old captain's last words. I should have been ruthless and eliminated those who were disloyal and unreliable, trained you in secret, and didn't let others know of your existence. But at that time, I didn't think that far ahead and leaked the news."

Lorenzo was reluctant to continue the subject.

He turned his head to look out the window, and happened to see Han Solo and three others walking into the base gate: "Here they are. This guy is very considerate and brought his people with him."

Is it?

Isabella gathered her emotions and stood up: "Let's go, let's go greet them."

Leila looked around and just felt shabby.

It can be seen that the iron gate of the base has been newly painted, but the gate is too severely corroded, the paint is unevenly applied, and it has peeled off in many places, making it look even more dilapidated.

After entering the door, we were greeted by various bungalows with cracked walls, which looked like dilapidated buildings—"

Is this really Elzlia’s military base?

It is far from the impression of being the world's most powerful country.

After entering the door, I took a few steps and a man and a woman came towards me.

The man is Lorenzo from last night.

The woman next to him should be the so-called "senior".

"welcome."

When she got closer, the woman smiled generously and took the initiative to speak.

She looked at Leila behind Han Solo and smiled, "I guess you are Lady Leila!"

"Hello."
