The slanting sunlight shines into the room from the window, and the hustle and bustle on the street is full of excitement.
Sofia stood in front of the window, looking out at the beautiful scenery in the elf city outside the window, slightly lost in thought.
She looked a little lonely.
She thought of the days she spent in Zeroland Castle, the knowledge she saw in the castle's books, and the aristocratic glory taught to her by her mentor...
She always thought that nobles were glorious and great, kind and wise.
She always believed that the church was just and holy, and the empire was prosperous and powerful.
This is how it was described in the book, and how the nobles in Zeroland Castle flattered and flattered her in this way, and she herself was proud of it and made it her future goal.
However, the decline of Riverbend Town, the dead babies discarded in the ravine, the gorgeous aristocratic villas in Morningstar City, and Duke Rosen's hypocritical and hateful smile kept popping up in my mind. And Bishop Santis’ indifferent attitude... always told her a cruel fact——
Perhaps she has always been too naive and wishful thinking.
Maybe she saw what others wanted her to see.
Maybe she didn't really see the world clearly at all.
This world is not that beautiful, and this world is not that kind.
At this moment, Sophia suddenly remembered what Lord Zero Moonlight, the Elf’s Life Familiar, said to her before she left Gray Harbor for Riverbend Town:
"Since you were a child, you have never left the castle, right?"
At that time, Sophia didn’t know why the other party asked.
But now, she knows.
Nobles are not the kind and respectful lords that common people see.
Civilians are not regarded as objects that should be protected and protected by the imperial nobles.
Even the church is not completely sacred and objective.
Her understanding of the world is like a fairy tale, a fairy tale imagined from the exaggerated description in a book, a colorful water bubble...
However, when the fairy tale is revealed and the bubble is popped, what is left to the girl is a cruel fact and a completely shattered future.
At this moment, Sophia was confused.
She raised her head slightly and looked at the blue sky and the slowly moving white clouds on the horizon.
The cotton-like clouds are constantly drifting and changing, like an aimless traveler wandering in the sky with no end in sight.
Inexplicably, Sophia felt like a cloud on the horizon.
Without any power, without any direction.
She suddenly didn’t know where she should go from now on...
It wasn't until a steady knock on the door came that the girl was awakened from her daze again.
"Miss Sophia, I am Li Mu, can I come in?"
A respectful and gentle voice came over.
Sofia glanced at the door and said tiredly:
"I want to be alone and don't want to see anyone right now."
"But at least eat something. You haven't eaten for several days. We made your favorite pastries. Eat some to fill your stomach, but don't starve your body."
Li Mu's voice came again.
"No, no need. People like me deserve to be starved to death."
Sophia replied without interest.
The voices outside the door became quiet.
But after a while, there seemed to be some commotion.
The next second, with a "clang", the door was kicked open from the outside, startling the girl sitting in front of the window.
She frowned and turned around. When she saw who it was, her face instantly turned cold:
"Didn't I say it? You don't want to see anyone, why do you want to barge in?"
The person standing at the door was none other than Demacia.
After hearing what the girl said, Demacia suddenly smiled.
A trace of ridicule appeared on his expression, then he crossed his arms and curled his lips and said:
"Hey, who are you showing this dead face to? Where is that arrogant young lady Viscount? Aren't you the best at ridiculing me? Why did you go to Morningstar City? Like an eggplant beaten by frost? Don’t you want to inherit the territory and strengthen the family?"
Looking at Demacia's contemptuous expression, Sophia's face became paler.
"Are you here to mock me?"
She clenched her hands into fists and said with a trembling voice.
"Ridicule? Is it worth it?"
Demacia shook her head.
He glanced at the girl and sneered:
"I'm not in the mood to ridicule a little girl who gives up on herself when something goes wrong."
"You...!"
Sophia glared.
"What am I? Am I right?"
Demacia snorted and continued:
"I didn't bring you back just to see you feeling miserable here. I thought you were one of the few noble nobles with a conscience among human nobles. Although you may be a little naive and a little stupid, at least you are still good. You have a warm heart... but I didn’t expect that it turns out that you are only good at this, and you still want to revive the family with this little ability?"
After hearing Demacia's words, Sophia's shoulders trembled.
She suddenly raised her head and stared at Demacia.
"Why are you staring? Who are you bigger than? Otherwise, you think the eldest sister will hand over the goddess's summoned statue to you! The eldest sister and the others hate human nobles the most, even if you have some elven blood! ”
Demacia stared back and continued to curse.
"You...!"
Sofia gritted her teeth.
"What am I? Even though I have a lot of problems, I am still much better than you! At least I have never given up on the goals I have decided on! No matter how difficult it is! I will try my best to complete it!"
Demacia snorted and said.
"Why do you think we are so good to you? In the final analysis, isn't it just because of your high fighting spirit and the kindness in your heart? What's the result? You gave up on yourself after suffering a blow? You deserve to be starved to death. ? Do you still think that you are a child and you can win the comfort of adults by acting pitifully?"
He looked at the girl with a sarcastic look on his face.
Looking at Demacia's disdainful gaze, Sophia almost bit her lip and her chest kept heaving with anger.
"Go out..."
The girl said with a trembling voice.
"Go out? I don't want to. I just feel unhappy with you today. If you don't accept it, you will bite me! Aren't you very venomous? Come on? Why don't you come?"
Demacia sneered.
Sofia's eyes breathed fire:
"Get out of here!"
This time, her voice was so loud that Demacia was startled.
However, Demacia quickly adjusted and turned its nostrils upward:
"Why should I go out? This is my hotel. Does my hotel know? All the properties of Amway Trading Company were built by me, Demacia! I am not a waste like you. I only talk about it. When something happens, I feel exhausted!"
Sofia felt sad and angry after being scolded by Demacia.
Her eyes were red, and tears gradually gathered in her eyes:
"Okay...Okay..."
"If you don't go out, I'll go out!"
After saying that, she rushed out of the room without looking back.
Looking at the girl rushing out of the room, Demacia quickly followed her.
He stood at the gate and shouted to Sophia who ran out:
"Hey! Where are we going? Can't stand it after just a few words? Still can't think about it anymore? Do you want to commit suicide? If you really can't think about it, please run away, otherwise it will dirty the city. I'm Dema Even West Asia looks down on you!"
Hearing Demacia's words, the girl's back swayed slightly, and then disappeared into the street at an even faster speed.
After losing sight of Sophia at all, Demacia breathed a long sigh of relief, and sighed with emotion in front of Li Mu’s stunned gaze:
"It's so cool to scold."
Li Mu:......
“Didn’t you say you can’t be tough?”
He glanced at the other party speechlessly.
"I'm not trying to be tough, I just can't stand it any longer. Here's an irony. Anyway, even if she becomes a camp NPC, I guess she won't be able to save my favor. I might as well just stay with her until the end. If It would be better if you could scold her to wake her up."
Demacia spread her hands.
Li Mu:......
"Aren't you afraid that if you lose your temper, you really can't think of committing suicide?"
He said with twitching corners of his mouth.
"No, absolutely not! She hates me very much. As long as I say this, she will definitely not do it, even if she is against me! And her AI setting is originally She's not stupid, she just has a little experience. I guess she knows a lot of things in her heart, but she just can't get out... If she is sober, she should be able to figure out many things."
Demacia shook her head.
"Are you sure?"
Li Mu raised an eyebrow.
"Of course."
Demacia nodded.
But after finishing speaking, he hesitated:
"Um, she shouldn't be really worried about it, right?"
With this thought, Demacia subconsciously wanted to catch up, but after hesitating for a second, he stopped again. Instead, he brought up the chat interface and quickly called someone in the guild channel to catch up and take a look.
Li Mu:......
“Sometimes I really don’t know whether you have high or low emotional intelligence.”
He shook his head slightly and rushed out of the room.
……
Sophia ran in the streets of Gray Port in tears.
She felt sad and angry, and besides the sadness and anger, there was also a bit of hatred.
That's not hating Demacia, but hating herself...
She actually understood very well that although many of the things the other party said were extremely unpleasant, they were all right.
She was indeed confused and somewhat flinched.
However, although her reason told her that she really needed to cheer up, she really couldn't accept it emotionally.
In the final analysis, she is just a sixteen-year-old child.
Not to mention, it is still a bunch of flowers that live in a greenhouse and have never seen the wind and rain.
Run, run...
It seems that he wants to vent all the anger in his heart...
It wasn’t until she ran very far away that Sophia gradually stopped.
She was sobbing slightly and her eyes were red and swollen.
The anger in my heart calmed down a little, but what came to my mind was further confusion.
Sofia knew she needed to make changes and cheer up.
But how should I work hard?
Depraved nobility, corrupt church, desperate people, dull society...
The entire empire is like an old man in his twilight years, or a giant ship that has lost its course.
How can she, a mere Viscount lady with no power or influence, change the future of the territory?

The persistence in her heart disappeared, and her faith, which was not a firm one in the first place, completely collapsed. Where should she go?
Unconsciously, the girl didn't know where she ran.
This seems to be a relatively quiet residential area. The houses are all newly built and have a strong traditional Elf color.
The greenery between the buildings is very good. Located here, it feels like being in a garden. There are green grass and flowers everywhere. It seems to be blessed by magic. Even in winter, the vegetation is still strong.
On the streets, there were some elves in more traditional clothes coming and going.
They don't have the gorgeous equipment like Demacia and others, and they look more simple.
At the same time, they do not have the intimidating evil aura of the "Elven God's Favored Ones". They seem to be more approachable, simple and honest.
"A civilian area of elves..."
The girl sniffed and muttered to herself.
She subconsciously thought of the human civilians she saw in Riverbend Town, and a hint of complexity flashed in her eyes.
"Civil areas? No, the elves have never had any civilian areas."
A gentle and melodious voice came from behind, attracting Sophia's attention.
The girl turned around and saw a female elf dressed as a druid.
The robes she wears are as gorgeous as those of the "Elven Favorites", but her temperament is more noble than them.
Seeing Sophia's gaze, the female elf smiled slightly:
"This is the residential area of returning elves."
"Return to the Elf's residential area?"
Sofia was slightly startled.
Reminiscent of certain rumors in human society, a hint of understanding flashed in the girl's eyes.
"The elves who were saved..."
She murmured.
Looking towards the elves in the distance, Sophia saw their happy smiling faces.
Children are playing happily, and the old man is sitting on a small wooden chair, leisurely playing the war chess game that has become quite popular in the empire recently.
The adult elves perform their respective duties and are busy running around.
Their eyes were full of passion and hope, completely different from the elven slaves and human civilians the girl saw in the human world.
They are not living zombies, but truly free beings.
"They...seemed very happy."
Sofia couldn't help but said.
"Of course, under the blessing of the goddess, all elves will live happily, because there is no oppression here, everyone is equal, and as long as you work hard, you will gain something and there will be a better tomorrow."
The female elf smiled.
"Without oppression, would everyone be equal..."
Sofia's heart moved slightly, thoughtfully.
She suddenly raised her head and looked at the other party.
"What is your name?"
The girl asked.
The gentle female elf smiled slightly:
"Wind."
"You can call me, wind."
She said gently.
