My hand rested on that strand of silvery-white hair. Although green represented an ominous color for the Sperud people, at this moment I wished that her hair was still that long, emerald-green.
……
The Principal's Office of Sharia Lanoa Magic University
……
"Dong dong."
"Please come in."
As soon as Luo Qixi arrived at the school gate, she was taken to the principal's office by members of the student council.
"Principal, Ms. Luo Qixi has arrived."
"Okay, go ahead and get busy."
Luo Qixi was a little puzzled. She walked to the desk and asked nervously, "Is there anything I can help you with, Principal?"
The principal frowned, hesitated for a moment, then took a small bag out of the drawer and placed it on the table. Judging from the sound, it seemed to contain coins.
"It's like this, Ms. Loki, because you interfered in King Lanoa's internal affairs and violated school rules, the school has decided to expel you. This is your salary for this year."

……
Lilith and her knight Beck entered the inn. As soon as they opened the door, everyone in the inn stared at them with hungry eyes. Beck instinctively placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, and the clanging sound of sharpening the blade echoed from within.
Unlike adventurers' guilds, inns are a mixed bag of people. Being targeted by ill-intentioned individuals can lead to a lot of trouble. In those impoverished times, it was common for innkeepers to sell guests like meat.
Lilith acted as if she hadn't seen the malicious guests or heard the sound of blades being drawn, walking gracefully and steadily up the stairs, followed by several people in the hall carrying swords.
"boom!"
"Ping ping pong pong!"
"what!"
"Uh!"
"Can't afford to mess with them... Run!"
"what!"
After a series of chaotic sounds and screams, the corridor was filled with corpses lying haphazardly. Lilith was left with only her guard knight, Beck, following behind her.
Beck wiped the blood off his sword, sheathed it, and glanced at the ground out of the corner of his eye. When his gaze shifted to Lilith, he noticed a few drops of bright red blood on the hem of her half-length white dress.
"Excuse me, miss, blood has splattered on your dress."
"It's okay, just be more careful next time."
Lilith didn't care about the minor flaw that had just appeared. She stopped in front of a door, took a deep breath, and knocked twice.
The person who opened the door was someone very familiar to Lilith, a young merchant who ran a large caravan—Bruno.
[Note: Bruno first appears in Chapter 42: The Journey Begins (Part 7), and is also a hired member of the B-rank adventurer party "Counter Arrow".]
"Ah, Miss Lilith, this way please."
Bruno invited Lilith into the room and then closed the door, while he and Beck stood guard outside.
Inside the room, Lilith stared intently at the man before her, his hair disheveled, his face covered in stubble, his gaunt face revealing high cheekbones.
It is Halfas.
"Your Highness..."
Whether it was the tears choking her throat or the moonlight outside the window washing over her, a tear rolled down Lilith's snow-white cheek, slid down her light makeup.
[Note: This is during the daytime, and there is no moon outside the window. To borrow a phrase from Natsume Soseki: "The moonlight is beautiful tonight."]
Gradually, tears filled her eyes. Although she had so much to say, she choked up and couldn't speak, only able to stammer and whisper, "Your Highness... Your Highness..."
“Lilith…Lilith…”
Halphas staggered to his feet, his gaunt face and dry lips slowly parting as he mumbled Lilith's name.
"I'm so glad to see you, Lilith..."
He walked towards Lilith, his eyes fixed on the girl before him, as if radiating a greedy green light.
Lilith looked at Halphas, who was now as withered as an autumn tree. He was almost a completely different person from the spirited Halphas she had met a year ago. But before she could react, Halphas had already picked her up roughly and thrown her onto the bed.
"Your Highness?"
"Hmm? Hmm..."
Halphas covered Lilith's mouth and frantically tore at her clothes, ripping open the collar of her grey sheepskin coat and tearing open her light blue silk shirt, exposing her snow-white breasts to Halphas. Then he unleashed his wildness on Lilith like a storm.
Before long, Lilith's face was flushed, and all her clothes had been torn off. Halphas then launched a fierce attack.
Lilith covered her mouth, trying not to make any sound, the sensation in her lower abdomen already spreading throughout her body.
“How many times have you done it with Rudius! Tell me! He did it with you like this! Like this, right!”
Halphas roared, his expression growing increasingly ferocious, and his movements becoming more and more violent, even attempting to flip Lilith over at the waist.
"Your Highness...please don't...ah!ah!"
The intense pain rendered Lilith speechless, and her moans gradually turned into screams. Suddenly, Halphas reached out and grabbed Lilith's neck, leaving bright red welts on her snow-white neck.
"Cough...ha..."
Lilith was powerless to resist; her breath was almost stopped, and her consciousness was becoming hazy.
"Lilith! Waaah... Do you know how much I love you..."
Just as Lilith was about to faint, Halphas stopped, tears welling in his eyes and dripping onto Lilith's neck, which was covered with marks from her fingers.
"Your Highness...cough cough...Your Highness is destined to become king...cough cough...How could you care about me? Your Highness and I are destined..."
"bump!"
Halphas didn't even listen to Lilith's words before throwing her off the bed, her already frail body slamming hard onto the floor.
"Don't mention Prince Cheng! I so desperately want you to be my princess! But you don't want to! Years ago, you conspired with my father to kill my mother. Do you think I didn't know? But I can forgive you. However, I cannot forgive you for becoming someone else's woman because of Prince Cheng's excuse!"
Lilith struggled to sit up. Her body was already very weak from the miscarriage a few months ago, and the abusive "greeting" from Halphas had made even speaking extremely difficult.
"Ahem... So Your Highness knew... But Your Highness agreed a year ago. For Your Highness, Prince Cheng is far more important than me..."
"I regret it! I regret it! I had no hope of becoming king, and now all I want is you! I have failed, and now even you are going to abandon me!"
"Your Highness has not failed yet... Rudeus is Your Highness's hope..."
"Don't talk to me, Prince Tirudius! The Aiolos family has already betrayed me, and so have you! I never thought I'd have to hear you mention that guy before I die! Lilith Aiolos Grellat, you're the one who killed me!"
Despite Halfas's roars, Lilith struggled to crawl to the bedside. The once revered noblewoman, worshipped by countless nobles in the palace, now crawled on the ground like an ant.
"Your Highness...please don't do anything foolish..."
"What is foolish, Lilith?"
As he spoke, Halfas pulled a dagger from under the bed and slowly brought it closer to his throat until the blade was pressed against his neck, drawing blood. "Is that so?"
"Your Highness! Please don't do this!"
Lilith tried her best to stand up, but she had no strength and fell to the ground again and again. She wanted to shout, but her throat seemed to have been damaged in the previous exercise, and she could only let out hoarse growls.
"Beck! Bloom! Stop His Highness!"
They couldn't hear it; Lilith was all alone, watching as the dagger in Halphas's hand slowly pierced his neck.
"This is the consequence of betraying this prince, Lilith."
Halfas plunged the dagger into his throat, spurting blood everywhere. He twitched a few times on the bed and then breathed his last.
"squeak……"
Baker pushed open the door, entered the room, wiped the bloodstains splattered on Lilith's face with a handkerchief, and covered her with a blanket.
“Miss, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have kept it from you, but I had to do it for your life.”
Lilith did not respond, but slumped to the spot, watching as Bruno, who followed her into the room, wrapped Halphas's body in a blanket and led it out of the room before helping Beck to his feet.
"Beck, kill me..."
"Miss, I can't do it."

Chapter 215: Two People Destined Never to Embrace Each Other (Part 3)
……
"Beck, kill me..."
"Miss, I can't do it..."
As Halphas's dagger pierced his throat, the beast of lust collapsed with a thud. Lilith was stunned; the guiding light in her heart seemed to have been suddenly swept away by the tide of the sea.
But it didn't take long for Lilith to recover. Her deep blue eyes shone with a cold gaze as she looked at Beck. "When His Highness attempted suicide with a dagger, I called your names, but you deliberately didn't hear me. You are truly remarkable to have been able to foresee His Highness Halfas committing suicide in front of me."
Baker felt a chill run down his spine. He couldn't look Lilith in the eye and involuntarily revealed the name of the person he had been in contact with.
“Miss, yes, yes, it is Philip Boreas Grerat. He said that Lord Sal has been imprisoned for pleading for Prince Halfas, so as long as you don’t stop Prince Halfas from committing suicide in front of you, your life can be saved.”
"Ha... my uncle has really cast a wide net... cough cough..."
She laughed, and seeing that eerie smile, Baker felt even more uneasy. How could she laugh at a time like this? Did Lilith have something else up her sleeve?
He wanted to ask, but couldn't open his mouth, and kept avoiding Lilith's eyes.
Lilith helped Baker to his feet and gave Bruno, who had just reached the door, a wink. Two maids carrying new clothes entered the room, and Lilith put on the new clothes and tidied her disheveled hair.
When she opened the door again and appeared before Baker and Bruno, both of them felt a chill run down their spines.
Her simple yet dignified attire and tightly tied hair accessories, even without makeup, clearly gave her a different aura than before, radiating a coldness from head to toe.
Bruno's sense of smell told him that Lilith was a dangerous woman who was always emanating a dangerous aura, so he quietly withdrew, leaving only Baker and Lilith to return to the caravan.
……
Rudyus's perspective:
……
As evening approached, I saw Lilith and her guard knight Beck return to the carriage in the distance, but I remembered that she wasn't wearing the same clothes when she left, and I had a vague sense of foreboding.
Doristina has not returned to this day.
"Rudy, Miss Lilith seems a bit off."
Hilfi tugged at my sleeve, looking worried.
As I watched Lilith approach, I remembered what Hilfi had said that morning: Lilith hadn't yet recovered from the trauma of her miscarriage.
As for me, my behavior over the past two months may have been somewhat nonchalant. I lacked the awareness and preparation to be a father, and I never even considered marrying Lilith.
In other words, I am unqualified as both a prospective husband and a prospective father.
"Maybe she needs comforting..." I said.
"I don't think it's that..."
"Rudius, Hilfiet, we'll be staying here tonight. Let's get off the bus and head to the hotel for dinner."
Before Hilfi could finish speaking, Lilith poked her head into the car. I could roughly understand what Hilfi meant: there might be something else going on, but since Lilith is such a cautious person, it probably wouldn't be a problem if she let us stay here overnight. Perhaps Hilfi was overthinking it; after all, she often overthinks things too.
"Okay, sure," I replied.
Lilith smiled at me and then left the carriage.
That smiling face always reminds me of my time at La Noah Magic University; I always seemed to see it vaguely before we made love.
“Sylphie, perhaps we underestimated Lilith. She has probably recovered.”
"I hope it's as Rudy says, but I just don't feel right. Maybe I'm overthinking it. I'm going to the hotel now, Rudy too."
