Positive little sun, magical girl, I am awesome

Chapter 494 I Don’t Think It’s Enough

"--What did you say?!"

Lilith and her group returned to Goletia in the evening. They never expected that Catherine, who had been so busy that she had lost contact with them all day, would finally return to school the next night. As soon as she opened her mouth, she brought such shocking news.

"Gone? What do you mean gone?!" Lilith immediately became anxious, "Where could Leila go? She never leaves your side! Have you looked for her everywhere?"

Seeing that Lily didn't know anything at all, Catherine hesitated for a moment before telling the results of the investigation, "The person who went with Leila to relocate Angel yesterday said that Leila got on a carriage with the Flair family crest printed on it..."

"Ah..." Lilith was stunned. Did she go to visit that Lao Deng? Yes, Leila was different from herself. Although she always complained, compared with herself, her relationship with Lao Deng was quite harmonious. Lao Deng seemed to be more like a normal person in front of Leila.

"--She hasn't shown up all day today, which is not normal. I specially asked Margaret to visit Viscount Friar..." Catherine glanced at Lilith's expression.

"There are only a few servants left to look after the Friars' mansion. According to them, Viscount Friars and his family left last night and returned to their fiefdom."

Lilith's eyes widened.

"I immediately sent knights out of the city to look for them, but no one saw any trace of them along the way. Viscount Freyr didn't seem to leave in an ordinary way." Catherine tore her nails anxiously. The viscount had the magic stone mine behind him and was rich enough to rival a country. It was said that he had many mercenary magicians around him. Perhaps the consumption of magic stones to build a long-distance teleportation array was nothing to him.

"what--!"

An ugly scream sounded, but it didn't sound like a human voice. It was Lulu who was too surprised to hear what Catherine said. She pulled out the mandrake she was feeding with force. The ugly little guy immediately began to cry unpleasantly. The elven dragon next to it drooled like crazy, fluttering its wings and winking at Lulu, hoping to taste this plant that looked very lively.

When Lilith and her friends left yesterday, the work in the greenhouse had not been completed yet, so of course it had to continue today.

"Could it be that Viscount Friar returned home and took Leila with him?" Lulu, with the help of Hannah, hurriedly stuffed the mandrake back into the soil and stood on tiptoe to press it down. She hadn't reacted yet, "But isn't Leila going to participate in the trial by combat..."

Everyone in the greenhouse fell silent for a moment. Ian stopped what he was doing and looked at Lilith with worry in his eyes.

"It's human nature." Lucas was also pulled here to do hard labor. His hands were covered with dirt. He was squatting in the corner and following Jaina's instructions, he stuffed the powder into the soil one by one. "If it were me, I wouldn't want my daughter to be involved in such a life-and-death duel. It's wise to take her away now. Hey, don't call me selfish. Nothing is more important than the lives of my loved ones. It's better to lose face than to lose my life, right?"

His words made everyone even more silent, and everyone's eyes followed his back.

Lucas was still working with his butt bent over. After a while, he paused.

"--No." Lucas stood up and faced everyone.

"If she can't attend, then that leaves..." Lucas looked at Lilith with a dazed look on his face.

"Thank God you were able to react!" Jaina rolled her eyes. "I almost wanted to take you to the infirmary to let Teacher Phoebe check your brain."

"But, but aren't you sisters?" Lucas didn't bother to fight back against Jaina. He was puzzled: Why did the Viscount only care about one? What about this? There is also a daughter here!

Lilith rolled her eyes at him as well. "What are you doing? Haven't you ever seen a biased parent?"

"Eh?" Lucas heard Lilith talk about this for the first time, and was a little at a loss. He felt that he had touched Lilith's sad story. He wiped his hands and went over to comfort her, "Don't be sad. At worst, I can take you away! Let you feel the partiality--"

Before he could finish his words, he was kicked by Lilith and fell into the soft black soil. "Why don't I let you die of pleasure? Do you still want to be my dad?"

"Ouch! That's not what I meant..." Lucas' face was only two fingers away from the cactus on the shelf in front of him. He was so scared that he crawled back in a hurry.

"Can you invite others to fight for you?" Ian stood up, with a look of determination to die, "I can do that, Lilith."

"No! What are you doing? Outsourcing is prohibited!" Lilith rolled her eyes at Ian again. If he hadn't been standing far away, she would have kicked him. "Besides, this violates the fair rules of trial by combat. He is a noble, and I must be a noble too."

At this time, she was grateful to Lao Deng for giving her a good identity. She smiled at Catherine with a heavy face.

"That's great. Before, Leila wanted to come to me but I didn't dare to compete with her." Lilith rubbed her hands briskly, and the blood-red lizard swayed.

"——Let me fight this duel!"

"Are you sure?" Catherine looked at Lilith. "This is a duel until one side dies. Lilith, you have never killed anyone before. I am afraid of you."

"I won't go easy on that kind of thing." Lilith couldn't laugh anymore when she thought of Vientele's disgusting face.

"Not only that—" She took a deep breath and asked Catherine, "Is your plan for that day?"

Catherine nodded hesitantly. She had a hunch that Lilith had come up with some new tricks. She wanted to know but was afraid to listen...

"The more chaotic the better, right?" A gleam of light flashed in Lilith's blue eyes.

Catherine looked around again and confirmed that there was no one else in the greenhouse except them at night. She lowered her voice and said, "That's right. After the trial by combat begins, there will be a peasant riot and attack the city gate from the east."

"Yeah." Lilith nodded, already understanding Catherine's intention, "I don't think it's enough."

Everyone else slowly put down their work. They had been working together for many years and had a tacit understanding. Just by hearing the tone of voice, they all looked at Lilith.

"I want to... give the Holy See another great gift." Lilith said softly.
