142. Rosa's Last Rest

After a long night, the sun finally began to emit its rays. The rest of last night's fight left many memories for many. The ground cracked, the atmosphere was chaotic, many corpses were lying on the ground for being killed in the fight overnight.

Not a few soldiers get injuries, ranging from minor injuries to very serious injuries. The overnight fight also left a lot of grief on everyone, especially for Lilian who until now had not been able to accept Rosa's death.

At the place of the fight looks soldiers who get a little wound to help other soldiers who have a bad condition. Physicians from last night struggled to provide treatment for soldiers and people who needed help when the battle occurred.

The former fight last night gave memories that they would not forget at any time. Slowly Seint began directing the unharmed soldiers to help clear up the rest of the battle overnight. For soldiers who have serious injuries or minor injuries are given treatment.

Seint and the others gathered the dead bodies for mass burial. King Reinal had decided to bury them all in that place as a sign that they had fought in that place. For the bodies of the opponents will be moved elsewhere and buried en masse but they will be marked traitors as punishment.

Those high nobles who still exhaled like Marquis Gaustark and Viscount Wilson were thrown into prison without treatment until the day of their sentence. King Reinal has decreed the death penalty in front of all his people for the traitors who are still alive. As for colleagues who help the traitors such as assistance from the kingdom of Elmore will be sentenced to death but previously King Reinal will send a letter of notification to the kingdom in question so as not to get into trouble again to ahead of him.

While for the carcass of the green snake will be moved along with the bodies of the traitors. Prince Igor and Concubine Gracia will not be buried in the cemetery of members of the royal nuclear family because they have committed treason, their bodies will be taken along with the bodies of other traitors.

For the corpses of the warriors of the Apollonian kingdom will be buried with a token of gratitude for their sacrifice to maintain the peace of the Apollonian kingdom. Soldiers killed in battle will be rewarded and compensated for the families left behind.

Lilian looked at her reflection in front of the mirror of her room, she thought back to Rosa who always helped her in everything. But today there is no longer a figure who always accompanies him wherever he is.

Lilian returned to shed her tears as she recalled the incident that took many lives last night. Lilian lost a lot of things overnight like losing Rosa who always accompanied her days. Lilian also had to give up the Citto's departure for good and what made Lilian depressed was that she had to accept her past soul back to sacrifice for her safety. Lilian had strengthened herself not to be hurt on the night of the war so as not to make her past soul feel pain.

The thing Lilian regretted the most was that before losing them, Lilian had yet to say anything to them. Lilian regretted that at the end of Rosa's life, she didn't spend as much time with him or just tell him about the little things they used to do every day. Lilian also regretted not being able to hug Citto for the last time when the dragon disappeared. Lilian also regretted why last night she could not control her feelings, if she could control her feelings Citto would not lose consciousness and her past soul would not sacrifice itself anymore.

Lilian stared at her two hands that still left small scratches marks during the battle last night. Ever since Lilian came to her senses, the place around her had been destroyed a lot, as the battle overnight made Lilian's body feel weak and her gaze slightly clouded.

Lilian convinced herself to stay strong to pay her last respects to Rosa. If Lilian's condition weakened then she would not be allowed to escort Rosa to her final rest. Lilian looked back at the mirror in front of her and her pale face was in stark contrast to the color of the white dress she was wearing.

When Lilian was busy with her thoughts. Someone walked up to Lilian's room door and walked over to the girl.

"Are you okay? If you don't feel strong then you better rest here." Seint.

Lilian immediately turned her body and looked straight into Seint's eyes. "No. I must pay my last respects to Rosa. There's not much I can do and give during his life. This is all I can do for the last time." Lilian.

Seint nodded slowly. "alright. You will still come, but if you feel your condition is deteriorating then you have to say it." Prattling

Seint nodded slowly. "alright. If you're ready then we can leave now." He said as he gently rubbed Lilian's head.

"Then let's go now." Bring Lilian.

Seint nodded slowly then took Lilian's hand to walk with him. Seint could feel Lilian's hands very cold and Lilian's face looked very pale but Seint did not want to make Lilian's heart grieve if he had to forbid her to pay her last respects to Rosa.

The sound of crying filled all the final places of reverence for the people who fell in the fight last night. King Reinal officially announced the place would be known as the warriors of the Apollonian kingdom. Each year that will come the night of the lantern will not only be a night of hope but the next night will be remembered as a night of struggle and will be held a tribute event for the people who have fallen.

Lilian could not help but cry at the mound of earth that was in front of her. Zheyan tried to hug Lilian's body tightly, hoping that she would feel calm and let Rosa go in her life.

Although heavy to accept the departure of Rosa but Lilian must still be able to mengikhlaskan his departure for the peace of Rosa's soul. Lilian gave several awards to Rosa and then stared long into Rosa's resting place.

"I hope your last wish is fulfilled. If given another chance at life, then I too want to be your sister and I will obey all your words." Inner Lilian.

Asgar stared long at Lilian who was standing still in front of Rosa's grave. "Sister knows you are saddened by Rosa's passing. But know, Rosa loves you very much. You don't have to stay down too long with your guilt. I'm sure Rosa's happy up there." Her speech.

Lilian turned her body and hugged Asgar tightly. "Wouldn't Rosa hate me?" Ask.

Asgar rubbed Lilian's head slowly. "Rosa did so on the basis of her will and not from the coercion of others. If you can choose then Brother also wants Rosa to stay with us. But Rosa loved you so much and chose to sacrifice herself." Evidently.

"You just have to pray for Rosa." Timpal Zheyan who was standing next to the two.

Lilian nodded softly in Asgar's embrace. The last thing Lilian could do was pray for peace for Rosa's soul.

"If it's over then we better get back. There's a lot we have to take care of because of last night's battle. Your body also needs a lot of rest to get back on its feet." Duke Marven.

Everyone nodded confirming Duke Marven's words. Before actually leaving Rosa's resting place, Lilian stared long at the vortex in front of her then turned around and stepped away from the place.
