Chapter 573: Chapter 312: Showdown, The Stubbornness of Little Swan

Until that day... 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Olivia remembered the battle in the Shadow Country, where she had prepared a great deal to face potential crises.

But when truly confronting the demi-god-like avater, her weakness was still laid bare.

At that moment, she truly thought she was going to die, and even considered persuading Sister Lumi to flee on her own.

After all, with Sister Lumi’s experience, escaping danger alone was not so difficult.

The hard part was just taking him away from danger.

And then Louis descended from the sky, dragging a shimmering rainbow light.

Under the dual effects of time stop and the Isle of Time, the entire world seemed to come to a halt in an instant.

That sword tore open the divine avatar, and with it, tore open her panic.

Seeing him fall to the ground at that time, she was really anxious.

She even took out the treasure her mother had left her, which could activate the Emerald Sacrifice once on its own.

Later on, she watched through the perspective of the Black Swan as he shared his feast with the out-of-control avatar, seeing him fight through the pain, her heart ached unconsciously.

At that time she was really envious of her sister, having someone like him to protect her, she would surely be very happy.

But the desire growing in her heart was like a thief hiding in the shadows.

She could not step into the light, because she knew very well that she was the eldest sister.

She had to complete her own mission, and also... protect her father and sister.

With this thought in mind, she projected the time avatar she had just absorbed not long ago once again.

But this time, the projection was of a girl named Olivia, harboring a small desire deep in her heart.

With the disappearance of that tiny desire, her restless heart returned to calm.

She would think, this way she wouldn’t harm Beatrice, right?

It was at this moment that she learned Louis was going to the Giant Demon Tribe.

It is said that the sin of wrath had been awakened and could cause massive destruction, and for the sake of future plans, Louis decided to go there on his own.

At that time, she thought, this guy must be crazy, always heading towards danger.

But letting him go alone didn’t seem right either.

Beatrice was also very busy, needing to handle domestic affairs and eradicate the remnants of the Abyssal Church in the Ense Empire.

Coincidentally, she asked me to check on the progress of the atmospheric circulation digitization project in Tunisia, so she followed along with Louis with a subtle thought in her heart.

When Louis planned to head to the Giant Plain alone, without knowing why, she sent the newly separated small avatar with him.

Meeting him at the Giant Demon Tribe, stepping onto the battlefield with him, watching him make a pact with the Grand Chief, watching him devour the sin of wrath, and then watching him get injured in the war...

She was actually prepared to lose this time avatar.

After all, even if it died, she would only bear part of the near-death pain, but that avatar was indeed a part of her and naturally accumulated years of experience dealing with countless enemies.

That was the experience accumulated... under the city of Tino, it would always help him at some point.

But why, why was his first reaction after opening the "Door in the Painting" to take me away, even as he was almost consumed by sin, falling into a coma.

At that moment, a thought arose in her heart: "Am I someone special to him?"

This thought, after he took her out of the battlefield, sprouted like mushrooms after rain.

During the time taking care of his comatose body, she, in resonance with the time avatar, could feel the avatar’s inner peace and a little-known happiness.

Clearly, she had separated that thought out, but why did she feel that such a thought had emerged deep in her heart once more.

She was very curious and very puzzled.

So, when Louis was about to wake up, she dismissed the surrounding maids, claiming she wanted some private space to rest with magic, and then used wide-area teleportation magic to come beside him.

She retracted the avatar and learned how to care for Louis like the avatar did.

Right now, he still thought she was the Black Swan, right?

Unexpectedly, the arrogant Prince of the Empire was ultimately deceived by her.

Indeed, she was the true wisdom of the Empire.

But as she excitedly thought about it, her mood fell again.

Why have you not woken up yet?

She gently wiped Louis’s body. Obviously, she could feel the strong and powerful heart beating continuously, but he was like being trapped in a dream he was unwilling to wake from, delayed in his awakening.

So she said:

"I’ve told you long ago, don’t push your limits, or it will surely lead to trouble."

After rambling for a long time, she suddenly felt a bit sad.

So she pushed his body, with very light movements, whispering softly:

"Of course, let’s deal with these trivial matters later, stop sleeping, get up quickly."

"Sister... there are still many people waiting for you."

At that moment, she actually wanted to say "I’m waiting for you," but she was usually not good with words. The few words she wanted to say to him felt too banal, even overly sentimental, so she swallowed them back in.

After all, he had said, she was a proud little swan.

Would there ever be a day when you also looked towards the swans outside Sister Wang’s palace?

The swan is looking at you, the little swan is also looking at you.

As she thought about this, she became a bit dazed.
