Chapter 82 The Truth About Lilith

Chapter 83 The Truth About Lilith

"Hitie, come out for a moment, I need to talk to you about something," Rod said to Felicity.

At that moment, the girl put down her book and raised her amber eyes to look at Rhodes.

Before the joy of seeing his beloved could even cross his mind, he noticed Lilith standing next to Rhodes and was slightly taken aback.

She glanced at Lilith, then at Rhodes, clearly sensing that the atmosphere between the two of them was rather strange.

What, is it because this loser's tearful and remorseful plea for him has upset Rhodes again, so he's offering himself up to make Lilith give up?

If that's the case, it would be really interesting.

Felicity's heart is always good —

Only when facing Lilith did he appear so dark.

Yes, darkness.

"Luo—what happened?" She tilted her head, a hint of doubt on her face.

"It's just some things you need to figure out."

"oh.

""

Felicity nodded, not caring what it was.

In any case, Lilith is now the most despicable being.

Hate? That is indeed the case.

She was happy to see Lilith abandoned by Rhodes, and happy that this god who always occupied Rhodes would lose everything.

Her folly caused everything to vanish without a trace. What's the point of trying to salvage anything now?

Felicity leaped over the books on the ground and her figure floated like a spring breeze to Rhodes' side.

The girl always carried the fragrance of flowers, as if she were constantly immersed in perfume. Even when she was just standing in front of Rhodes, he could clearly smell Felicity's scent.

"Let's go." Rhodes nodded. "Ivina, you stay here and read a book by yourself. Come back in about ten minutes."

"Oh." Ivina curled up into a ball, resting her chin on her slender knee, and turned the yellowed pages of the book.

Phillips, the Gulf city, has had a deep connection with the sea since ancient times.

Whether they are people of the sea or people of the land, they will always have close ties and connections with each other.

Numerous legends were sung and passed down during this period, creating a collection of stories.

Ultimately, due to greed, envy, arrogance, and prejudice, the people of the sea gradually disappeared from human sight.

The contents of the book were clearly visible to Ivina, but in reality, she wasn't paying much attention to the book.

After all, it's not fair that Rod deliberately called Felicity away, leaving her all alone.

Even if you're just talking, even if you're asking Felicity questions, she can just listen and give you advice.

And this is still inside the Duke's mansion, on her own turf, yet Rhodes dares to treat his friend so coldly—

Hmph, so he doesn't want to take me out, huh?

The girl was very sensitive; even one of Rod's actions could lead to serious consequences.

Her jealousy had gone completely off track, but in reality, Rhodes was just trying to keep Ivina from knowing about these past troubles.

He really didn't expect it to have the opposite effect.

but-

He simply didn't know either.

After all, he had already closed the door and led Lilith and Felicity outside the library.

The three of them walked together, but the atmosphere was strangely somber.

Lilith didn't dare to say a lot of things before Rhodes spoke, lest she offend him again, while Rhodes calmed down and looked out the window, feeling the reality of everything.

The footsteps are real, and the figures are real.

The buttons on his chest had just been straightened by Cecilia's delicate fingers, and his body still carried the scent of Ivina from the previous night.

He kept walking and walking until he reached the door of an empty house that no one lived in, and then Rod finally stopped.

He turned around, looked at the two girls, and said softly, "You two, say hello again."

"Misunderstanding?" Felicity's eyes showed confusion.

But she realized what was happening in an instant, her lips moved and her eyes fixed on him.

Did Rhodes tell Lilith that she was also reborn?

A sense of foreboding instantly arose in her heart. She didn't want to be implicated by Lilith, and she didn't want the situation to become chaotic because of something Lilith said.

That would be good—Lilith has been driven far away, and the other girls haven't even appeared yet. That would be good.

But things don't always go according to anyone's wishes.

"Felicity, it's been a long time." Lilith's calm voice still rang out.

She didn't extend her hand to shake Felicity's, but simply looked at Felicity with her blue eyes, which had just been filled with tears again.

This is Lilith.

No matter how much she appeared frustrated and distressed in front of Rhodes, it was only because he was the only one who could reach her heart.

As for the others, none of their existence is important, and nothing about them is valuable.

"Lilith—" Felicity's voice fell silent, and the natural purity in her eyes vanished in an instant.

Gone was that gentle, innocent look she had when she was with Rhodes; in the blink of an eye, her eyes turned cold.

This is what she looks like after taking revenge, having lost her country and all her family.

The girl lost her pure kindness and had broken free from her dream, stepping into the forest that was being burned.

"I didn't expect you to be reborn as well."

"Really? So now you know." Felicity still wore a slightly affected smile. "So, what was Luo's purpose in telling you I was reborn? I think we can explain things clearly without him having to say it, right?"

"Rhodes wanted to know what the world was like after he died, but he didn't trust what I said, so he came to you."

The art of language.

Lilith completely dissected all her emotions and content, simply stating the condition that "Rhodes wants to know what happens after death."

This was her precautionary measure.

Even though she knew Felicity wouldn't lie, she still habitually dug a pit for others to make them reveal the truth she wanted.

Yes, all she needed to do was get Felicity to say the truth, to confirm it, nothing else was needed. But at this moment, Felicity's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Luo, is it true?"

"————Hmm." Rhodes did not deny it, but nodded.

After all, simply stating what the future world will be like is indeed enough to prove this fact. At this moment, Felicity took a slight breath, then her eyes turned cold: "After you died, the world didn't actually last very long."

About three years later, everything collapsed.

Moreover, I lost consciousness and returned to this original starting point three years after your death.

So, I can only talk about things within the last three years, is that alright?

"Um.

""

Felicity remained silent for a long time before finally speaking: "After you died, everyone tried to find a way to bring you back to life."

She paused for a moment, looked at Lilith, her eyes calm.

She certainly didn't want to reveal the ridiculous illusion that Lilith also wanted him resurrected.

After all, in her eyes, Rhodes was killed by Lilith, so how could she possibly want to resurrect Rhodes?
