The corners of Marennia's mouth relaxed, and she was obviously much more relieved by his answer.
She felt relieved when her brother said that.
There is no burden in helping my brother and mother. At worst I can go back to the magic academy to see my father in the future.
Maybe, I won’t have to study the Golden Rule anymore, and I can spend more time with them like I did when they were little.
After being interrupted by Torina, the atmosphere eased a lot, and Roland and Marika no longer worried about the fire.
After all, they are gods from outside the border area and are not so easy to touch.
If the power of the Mad Fire is to be borrowed, Marika would be the first to disagree, just like Melina caring so much about the people in the border area, a large part of which was influenced by her mother.
The blond young man leaned back with his eyes closed, and Di Xi helped him massage his shoulders, which made Tolina and Marenia curl their lips.
He didn't expect it to be so smooth. From their last conversation, it could be seen that Marika really treated him as her own and trusted him wholeheartedly.
Now the problem is here.
The mother wanted to get rid of the situation of being controlled and let him become the King of Elden. He just needed to pretend to obey the supreme will but not become another her.
But Roland simply didn't consider the sacrifice of his mother and sister.
He felt that once they left the border, it was unclear what the Supreme Will would do.
At worst, I can learn from Lani in the game and run away with the magic ring and my wife.
It couldn't get any worse.
Roland opened his eyes and looked at Marika: "No matter what, it will take some time before Mother wants to do anything, right?"
"Well, I was planning to take a long-term view." Marika nodded.
Yours is really long. You never know when it will suddenly break and shake Roland's heart.
There is also the problem of the Faded One. Roland was too embarrassed to say it. If all else fails, he will just have to wait for the Faded One to be recalled and there will be one more chance.
Roland's eyes reflected his mother's figure. "Anyway, there's still some time left, and there's more than just Melina as the Fire Seeder. I'll find the others and let Melina come out."
"You want me to cancel her mission?"
Marika knew her son's style too well. If he wanted to do this, she would contact Dianhuo later. By then, the matter would be done and there would be other fire sources, so the problem would be solved.
She looks further ahead and thinks more.
Although Roland seemed unlikely to fail, as his combat power in this land was already top-notch, there was another possibility for Melina's mission, which was that he failed.
At that time, Melina will need to step forward and burn the golden tree.
She sighed slightly, "How about this, there will be no result if we continue to argue, I will cancel her mission temporarily, how about that?"
Marika was backing off. She gave in to her beloved eldest son.
Roland was stunned at first, then he smiled, stood up, ran over, and hugged his mother.
"I knew Mother would agree. When will we go over there?"
Marika touched his head, her eyes full of helplessness, she was still childish sometimes.
Chapter 55 Leaving
"Why are you in such a hurry? I've already promised you."
The woman sat there, crossed her legs, and let her son hold her shoulders.
She picked up the teacup and said, "We haven't finished talking about what happened just now, right?"
Roland sat back down and breathed a sigh of relief. "At least half of the problem is solved."
"What? You still want to get rid of me, your significant other?" Marika joked.
As a result, no one dared to answer.
Roland smiled and said, "Mother, don't think about sacrificing yourself. Just go and smash the magic ring."
"There's no rush anyway." Marika leaned back with the cup in her hand. "Do you have a better idea?"
"Not yet." Roland spread his hands, "But there must be a way."
At least he didn't die. Marika gave up completely and smashed the magic ring, causing complete devastation in the border area until A-ti stood up.
Now, with just a little smash, he can repair it immediately and become the new king with the attention of all people.
Otherwise, he would have to wait a while if he wanted to become the King of Elden.
Marika shook her head, her son was still young and could wait for a while.
There is still some time before Radagan becomes her, so she should support her son for a while longer.
She said, "You don't have much time left, maybe one year, at most. If you can't think of a better way, you have to do as I say."
Roland actually has more information. If he thinks about it carefully, there must be more ways.
Radagan can definitely win, but it’s useless because he still has half of the Golden Law in his hands. What will he do then?
He refused to let go, and even Marika had no choice but to smash the ring.
"Can I steal the magic ring?" Roland asked.
"No, the magic ring cannot bring out the golden tree. We will be discovered and exposed in an instant." Marika answered him.
"Okay, I see."
Roland nodded. "One year, right? We agreed that during this year, Mother cannot break the ring."
"Okay." She nodded, put down the teacup, and looked around. "You don't have to follow me. Godwin and I will go."
No one objected, and they left the room one after another, until only she and Roland were left.
"Let's go, aren't you in a hurry?"
"Ah."
Roland watched as his mother picked up a coat, wrapped it around her body, and left with him.
The carriage is ready.
It was very low-key, and didn't look like the car that Eternal Queen Marika would drive when she went out. It had no decorations at all, a pure black cabin, and even no windows.
The coachman was a dashing white-haired young lady, tall, slender, and undoubtedly a black knife.
She opened the carriage door for the two of them, and immediately closed it after they got in.
The carriage moved forward silently, just like the black knife itself.
After several turns, the carriage stopped on the road leading to the forbidden area. No one would see it here.
Roland jumped out of the car and held Marika’s hand, “Slow down, mother.”
"In such a hurry?" she asked.
"No." He shook his head.
It's already this time, what is there to be anxious about? Of course there is no hurry.
The blond young man lagged behind his mother by half a step. When people on the street saw the two of them, they all half-knelt in greeting.
Until they reached the elevator leading to the forbidden area, both of them floated lightly in the air and entered the passage easily.
The Golden Tree nobleman who was guarding the door turned pale with fear and quickly stood up, trying to explain about the chair, but Marika didn't give him a chance and waved her hand.
"You don't have to come anymore."
"Your Majesty!" He fell to his knees with a plop, and was almost about to lick Marika's feet.
Roland smiled and pushed him away. "I don't mean anything else. I just don't need your position anymore."
"Yes, yes." His legs were shaking, his teeth were chattering, and he was shivering.
Marika didn't even look at it, she pushed the door open and walked into the room, she glanced around and saw the girl with short chestnut hair, sitting behind a long table.
The two looked at each other. The girl seemed to find it incredible and was stunned for a moment.
"Mother?"
"Well, I haven't seen you for a long time. You won't blame me, right?" She took a few steps forward, revealing Roland behind her.
"No, I know my mother is busy." Melina shook her head.
Marika doesn't come here often, or even often, because she has to protect this secret.
She walked over with a slightly complicated expression.
"Melina, your mission can be temporarily lifted. Leave with Roland."
"Ugh?"
The girl was completely stunned, looking at her mother and then at the blond young man behind her.
What my brother said a few days ago really worked, and my mother was relieved of her mission.
In this way, I can always be with my brother and stay by his side.
Melina's eyes gleamed, and then she noticed that there was another word in her mother's words.
"Temporarily? What do you mean?"
"For now, as long as Roland is safe, you don't have to complete your mission." Marika explained.
"Huh? No surprise?" Melina tilted her head, still with a puzzled look in her eyes.
"As long as I don't die, you don't have to fulfill that damn mission."
Roland said bluntly, "Let's go, pack up and leave here."
"die......"
Melina stopped her hand on the table, stared at Roland blankly, and asked.
"Will my brother die?"
"No, I am the god of death. No one can kill me. Don't even think about it. Temporary is permanent."
Roland walked up to her, rubbed her head, and pulled her to a nearby place.
He looked at the books and clothes and said, "Forget it. I'll ask a few servants to pack it up for you. Just leave with me."
"okay."
Melina took a deep breath, stepped forward, and hugged Marika's body, feeling her stiffness slowly turn into softness, and her palms ran through her hair.
She whispered in Mallika’s ear, “Thank you mother, I will remember this, and if my brother dies, I will take up my mission.
As long as my brother is okay, I will always help him and stay by his side."
"Well, go help Godwin."
She patted Melina's back gently and ran the back of her hand down, also hugging the girl.
Of all her children, the three imprisoned ones definitely received the least love.
Melina, in particular, volunteered to be imprisoned for Marika's mission.
Roland smiled as he watched his mother hugging his sister, not disturbing this quiet moment.
The fire on the table flickered, shining on their figures, emitting the last bit of light.
The scent of the aromatherapy was very light, a bit like lavender, which made him quite happy.
They left the room together. Roland blessed the nobleman of the Golden Tree and asked him to pack up all the things and send them to the palace. The man was so grateful that he knelt down directly.
He frowned, but ultimately said nothing.
Melina breathed in the fresh air, the cold wind from the forbidden area and the summer air from the royal city.
Her face was calm, she held her brother's hand with her left hand and her mother's hand with her right hand, and got into the carriage.
Chapter 56: First Arrival
That afternoon, in the royal city.
After my mother and I picked up Melina, the carriage did not drive into the palace, but stopped on the roadside, near the west city wall.
"Yes." Marika threw a black robe over, hitting Roland on the head.
