"They have a lot of money, but you, the person who takes the money talks so much." Tiers said.

"Because it's boring, and the surrounding atmosphere is still so depressing."

Because of the large number of soldiers, the atmosphere of the whole team was a little heavy and very quiet. The adventurers did not have such strict discipline, but in this atmosphere, it was not easy to speak loudly.

"Indeed, it's a little strange." Thiers whispered.

All the adventurers maintain a relaxed attitude as a whole, and some even seem a little relaxed. Most of the soldiers also have this attitude. However, there are two accompanying officers who are obviously nervous.

Escorting a bride, the force deployed is a bit too much...

Just as Tiers was thinking wildly, the carriage ahead suddenly stopped.

"what happened?"

"Go and see." Thiers wanted to push the horse under his crotch forward.

However, the horse's limbs seemed to be fixed on the ground, unwilling to move forward.

"What's wrong?" Mira asked. "Why don't you go, didn't we just set off?"

Now, looking behind him, he could even see the city wall of Duo La Tar, the capital of the Dragon King.

Tills was silent for a moment, then spoke slowly, her voice was very serious.

"Ma, I don't want to move forward."

Not only the horse that Tiers and the others were riding, but all the horses in the entire queue, no matter whether they were pulling carts or carrying people, whether they were eight-legged horses or ordinary horses, all stood firmly in place, unwilling to go any further. Move an inch.

Lying in the spacious carriage, Bernadette fell asleep unknowingly.

This carriage is actually not particularly big, but for a petite girl, it is enough to lie down.

She couldn't sleep last night, causing her to fall asleep when she was putting on makeup at the backstage of the wedding banquet. Someone still carried her into the carriage.

"Mom." She murmured like this, she didn't know what dream she had, and there were tears on her cheeks.

Bernadette has never met her biological mother, nor has she truly experienced the so-called maternal love.

But it's the nature of life to call 'Mom' when you're scared.

It's a pity that even in her dream, she still couldn't see her mother clearly.

It is said that people can only see things they have seen in their dreams. She has not seen her mother, so she can only see a vague shadow.

A hand gently stroked her face, wiping away all the tears from Bernadette.

Slowly opening her eyes, the girl saw an illusory figure.

"What a nice view."

This is a subconscious thought that appeared in front of my eyes when I saw this figure.

"Am I dreaming?" she said softly.

She is the only one in this carriage, and she can only contact outsiders when the convoy stops at the post station, so this beautiful woman in front of her must be a dream.

"Mom." The girl subconsciously said.

So warm, so comfortable, is this the feeling a mother brings to people?

I really don't want to wake up.

"I'm asking you." The woman leaned down and whispered in her ear.

"Do you want to live?"

Very gentle voice, and there is a sense of familiarity, as well as this question, it seems that someone has asked himself.

What a cruel question.

Bernadette didn't want to think about the answer to this question.

"After all, what counts as being alive?"

If Alec hadn't suddenly passed on the title of Bamboo Girl to her, making her a big star at the banquet of her debut and becoming a well-known figure in the upper class, she might have been taken away without knowing it.

If Zhuyueguan abandoned her as an abandoned baby left by a dead prostitute, then she probably didn't even have the value of sacrificing for 'humanity'.

If the mother who was a whore hadn't chosen to leave her 'cumbersome' fetus...

"I'm already very lucky." Bernadette whispered. "I want to be able to save other people too."

She was silent for a long, long time.

"I don't want to die, I want to live."

"No matter what, I want to live."

The woman stroked her head and smiled slightly.

That's right, only if you have this awareness—only if you feel that your life is worth living no matter what, then I have a reason to save you.
