"Mm?"
Ye Kai suddenly saw Cecilia slowly rising, and he couldn't help but be startled. At this moment, she was vulnerable; having already lost too much blood, if she didn't rest and recuperate properly, she might suffer lasting consequences.
He immediately stepped forward, grasping her arm with a hint of reproach in his voice. "Why are you getting up? You should be resting more right now."
Cecilia smiled gently. It felt like the first time she had experienced such a feeling, reminiscent of when her father was still alive—like even when everything was collapsing around her, there was someone standing by her side, supporting her.
She gazed at him, lost in thought, observing every detail. The man before her had slightly furrowed brows and pressed lips, clearly troubled.
He was deep in contemplation!
Yet those eyes, as deep as the starry sky, held endless warmth—like a gentle breeze or a ray of warm sunlight that illuminated the gloomy space around them.
Warmth!
Gentleness!
It felt as if she never wanted to leave this moment, wanting to remain forever entranced.
"I want to see you, to really see you."
Cecilia squinted playfully and flashed a mischievous smile. "You're the first man brave enough to approach me like this. You know I'm the Queen now, the Queen of Blanster!"
"Even if you're the Ice Goddess, I'll still be this bold," Ye Kai replied with a smile. He gently tucked a playful strand of hair behind her ear, his soft voice resonating once more. "Because it is your beauty and your strength that give me the courage to come closer to you."
"Do you remember what I said when I gave you the 'Book of Ice Lancer'?" Cecilia asked softly, blinking her eyes slowly.
"Of course!"
Ye Kai replied with a smile, his confidence evident. "I will remember it for the rest of my life. If I can find a world suitable for the Ice Lancer people to live in, then you will marry me!"
What a rogue!
Cecilia pouted adorably, as if silently accusing the 'big rogue' before her. Then she suddenly laughed lightly, "Since everything has come to fruition now, my knight, when are you planning to marry the Queen of Ice Lancer?"
"Soon!"
Ye Kai gazed deeply at the charming girl in front of him, nearly losing himself in her clear blue eyes that resembled the vast sky. He said dreamily, "I wish I could marry you right now and have ten or eight children with you so we could live happily ever after."
"Pfft!"
Cecilia giggled shyly but quickly realized it was inappropriate. She feigned anger and glared at him with wide eyes. "Quickly return my dowry! I haven't agreed to anything yet! Unless you can find something more precious than the 'Book of Ice Lancer.' You know all women love treasures."
That does seem true!
Well, women are just like dragons; as long as it's shiny gems or treasures, they must collect them, right?
Nodding, Ye Kai took out the 'Book of Ice Lancer,' tapped Cecilia's nose playfully, and said softly, "Whatever you say!"
The information on Rune Technology contained within this gem had already been replicated by the gods, so there was no need for this trivial matter to cause unnecessary discord between the two who had just begun to sweeten their relationship.
He truly handed the ruby to Cecilia.
However, he did not notice that in Cecilia's eyes, which were lowered as she played with the gem, there was not joy or happiness, but a resolute determination, a sense of finality.
At the same time, there was a hint of guilt.
This man really trusted her so much and loved her!
But perhaps she would never again see those deep eyes that revealed infinite tenderness, nor would she hear his magnetic, gentle voice!
She truly was a bad girl!
Struggling to hold back her tears, she could no longer suppress the complex emotions in her heart and took the initiative to lean against a man's chest for the first time.
"Is this what moves you, my Your Majesty?"
Ye Kai felt a mix of heartache and boundless joy as he gently embraced the woman in his arms. The feeling of holding the entire world once again washed over him.
Yet, he did not see that blood, which had already stopped flowing from Cecilia's wrist, was slowly seeping out again, being absorbed little by little by the Book of Ice Lancer he had just taken out.
As time passed, Ye Kai suddenly felt something was wrong. It had been several minutes; why was the woman in his arms still unmoving and silent? Moreover, it seemed her body was beginning to tremble slightly.
Furrowing his brow, he touched her delicate shoulders. When he tried to take a closer look at her, he suddenly realized that his arm had become completely immobile.
Stiffness. Rigidity!
A sense of foreboding surged within him, a panic intertwined with confusion.
“Leah, Leah, you…”
Cecilia gently lifted her head, tears blurring her vision as they streamed down her cheeks, glistening like crystals before falling onto the man’s chest.
“I’m sorry, Ye Kai…”
“I heard everything just now. Perhaps time is running out, but…”
“But I can’t just abandon my people and escape alone!”
“I am the king of Ice Lanster, and I must bear the hope of continuing the Bloodline of Ice Lanster.”
“Whether in the past or in the future, the king of Ice Lanster will never betray his people, even if it means fighting on the battlefield or having his soul turned to ashes…”
“Please forget me!”
“This is what a king of Ice Lanster should do. Take care!!!”
Ye Kai felt as if his chest would explode. He stared in horror at Cecilia’s tear-streaked face, watching as she slowly withdrew from him. The sensation of the entire world collapsing around him hit him like a thunderclap.
As he watched her fragile yet determined figure step forward, Ye Kai felt his heart shatter. He wanted to scream; he wanted to rush forward and pull that foolish woman into his arms, to tell her that there would surely be a way.
But he could only watch helplessly, for an invisible shackle held him firmly in place.
"Don't!"
"You'll die!"
"Don't go!"
Ye Kai screamed frantically in his heart.
It seemed that his prayers and shouts were answered, as Cecilia suddenly paused, turning slightly to look back, revealing a perfect smile.
Just when Ye Kai thought she might change her mind, that stunning face suddenly vanished from sight.
He clearly saw a single crystal tear drop from mid-air, shattering upon hitting the floor.
"Damn it, God, show yourself!"
The fury within him nearly burst from his chest, causing Ye Kai's eyes to turn red and veins to bulge on his forehead. "Release this damned state immediately, or I'll kill you!"
"Yes, Lord God!"
Suddenly, Ye Kai vanished from his spot and appeared in the System Space, a massive beam of light descending to envelop him.
