The Second Life Liliana
Chapters 218. Choosing the path of war

...🍀🍀🍀...

Liliana, who had been sipping a cup filled with milk, put the cup directly on the table. She looked at her husband's face anxiously.

"Lily, you know what, there's a tension on our border between our kingdom and Lostier's work."

"Yes, I know.But have you not taken the path of peace together with the king of the kingdom of Lostier? Why can there suddenly be a word of war?" liliana did not understand her husband's words about the war.

There was no war between the two great kingdoms. Max has taken the path of peace. At year.

"Yes, I and the representatives of this kingdom have come to the king of Lostier to negotiate peace, but they do not agree at all with the peace offered."

The pregnant woman gasped in shock at hearing that, "Why could that be so? Do they disagree with the negotiations we're offering?" tanyanya fret.

Suddenly Liliana felt a tightness in her chest, like a bad feeling was about to happen.

"Yes, they are not satisfied and still want to take over our kingdom! Just yummy! Though all this time they have taken even dredged up the wealth of mines in this region of the kingdom and I cannot let it go any longer. Lily.." lily..."

"Then? Is war the only way?"

Max nodded his head, there seemed to be no other way but war. When one of the parties is not willing to give up and does not want to give up. Max was also unlikely to give up the oil mines that were the livelihood centers of the Istvan kingdom's residents. Just crazy!

"Lily, we're gonna win this war and I believe that."

"Haahhhh.." the pregnant woman sighed heavily.

"Lily, if you don't want me to go, then I'll stay here. I don't want you to be sad because I'm leaving you and our son who will soon see the world."

"Go and come home with victory! Don't let the people of the Lostier kingdom rule our livelihood."

"Lily, I don't have to go there. I can't leave you here alone, I can ask for the best troops and kstaria in the empire."

"Maxim, how can they fight without their king? Don't joke like that, let alone this is a matter of our country and everyone who lives here. You have to go!"

Her lips said Max had to leave but not with his heart.

"Darling, I can't leave you here alone."

"Maxim I'm not alone and you're not leaving for months anyway, are you?" tanyanya tries to be a wise queen. He realized that he should not be selfish, Maximillian not his own but also belongs to his people. Because her husband is a king.

"Maybe it's only a week" he answered, looking at his wife with teary eyes. The war is about the country, but Liliana is still more important to him. Moreover, Liliana is pregnant, and the time to give birth is about 1 month away.

"Yes you go, I'll be fine."

"Lily," he was not willing to go to war and leave his wife alone.

The woman held her husband's hand while looking at him gently. "I'll be fine, your majesty, and here I'm not alone. A lot of people are with me,"

"But-"

The cup!

Liliana kissed the husband's cheek tenderly lovingly. "I will be fine, so will you.Go and save our kingdom, defend what belongs to our country. You are a king and our children will be proud of their father, if his father can help others also honor the name of the country." she said, advising her husband gently.

Liliana was a wise woman, mature and unselfish. She is loved by everyone, especially her husband and those closest to her.

"Well, I'll be right back.I won't be long. My children, be well here with your mother, don't trouble your mother, will you? Pray that you can come home soon, I love you three..." Max kissed his wife's forehead, gently stroking the wife's distended stomach affectionately.

Liliana smiled back then she said. "Me and our children will be fine, we will always pray for you. Be careful.we are waiting for you." she said and hugged her husband.

Maximilian returned his wife's embrace gently and carefully for fear of hurting my wife's distended stomach. "I promise I'll be back soon, but my Queen I want to tell you something."

"Yes, what's my husband?"

"If..this is only if something happens with this kingdom or if I lose the war-"

"No dear, you won't lose!"

"Lily, this is only if I lose. If that happens, I want you to run away. Adrian and my two best knights will be here to take care of you as well. Suppose, if you were their hostage, you ask what they want, and tell them I'll give them what."

The two eyes of the woman were round, she thought that her husband had such thoughts. "Please don't say such a bad thing, you'll come back safe and our kingdom will be fine too! I believe you're strong!"

The cup!

Liliana's forehead gets another soft, loving kiss from her husband. "I know I'm strong, but this is only if. I'm saying all this not because I'm unsure and confident, but because I'm worried about you and our son. I'm afraid they're doing things I don't know, so this is just in case." she tells Liliana.

He was not insecure about his abilities and the military capabilities of the kingdom, he was just afraid of unexpected things happening. The unexpected thing concerns his wife and son.

"Eungh, alright," Liliana nodded her head, she understood what her husband said.

*****

That same afternoon Max was preparing to leave with several thousand troops, Liliana drove her husband to the front gate of the palace.

Actually Lilliana's heart is heavy to let her husband go to war this time, even though this is not the first time Max went to war. But why is his heart restless like something's stuck? It's strange!

Seeing her husband in full battle clothes made her heart even more restless, but as much as possible she hid her anxiety in front of Max who would go to fight for the rights of his country.

"My queen, I'm leaving?" Max looked at his wife with his sad eyes. It felt heavy heart leaving Liliana who was in the middle of a big pregnancy at this time. But inevitably, he had to leave for the war to be over quickly.

"Yes, your majesty, be careful.come back safely." In front of everyone Liliana kissed her husband's cheeks and forehead gently.

Everyone there immediately mesem mesem mesem mesem see the intimacy of the couple let alone who see it every day. It feels like their love never runs out and there is never any boredom at all.

Some of the soldiers were even noisy about their romance.

"Romantis once the King's majesty and the Queen's majesty,"

"It's as if their love never fades, gets bored and never withers."

"You are right." said one soldier smiling and confirming the words of his two friends.

On the other hand, Eugene is just like Max. He said goodbye to his wife because he had to go to war. Eugene holds his daughter who is now 9 months old. "Dad go first Princess Rose..."

Roselia, that's the name of Eugene and Laura's daughter. She has beauty like her mother and beautiful eyes like her father. Like a beautiful rose, she had blushing red cheeks.

In her kiss the adorable baby cheek lovingly. Then Eugene handed Roselia back to her mother. "My wife, I'm leaving first. Take good care of our child and yourself too." the message.

"Yes, beware, me and our daughter will always pray for you."

"I love you," Eugene kissed Laura's forehead gently.

On the other hand, Liliana put a bracelet made of thread on her husband's wrist. The bracelet he got from the great priest while praying in the holy temple.

The bracelet is called a prayer bracelet. "May God always protect you, my King."

"The same prayer for my Queen and the future leader of this country."

After the royal entourage disappeared from sight. Laura, Liliana, Rose and some of the ladies and ladies and the palace guards returned to the palace.

Inwardly, they prayed for the salvation of all those who would now go to war and return to victory in good health, of course.

*****

It took only half a day for Max and the Istvan royal troops to get to the border of his kingdom and the kingdom of Lostier.

Compared to the Lottier kingdom, the Istvan kingdom had more military power and their army members were also superior. Then why would they dare to light a war flag on that great empire?

Answer's one!

They were quite confident because they had a lot of support from other kingdoms, the kingdom that had been defeated by Max before in the war. It could be revenge, too.

Now the leaders of the two kingdoms are in a position to face each other even though the distance is still far between them. King Lottier is not alone because he is with two former Kings whose country was once conquered by Max.

"Your Majesty, it turns out that King Lostier is with two former leaders of two kingdoms that have been destroyed." Eugene whispered to his king.

Max stared intently at the King and the troops in front of him. "Yes, I was expecting it. That's why he dared to raise the war flag to us. No wonder!"

Is there Prince William too? Goddamnit!

(If anyone forgets who Prince William is, he is the man who is the candidate for Liliana's future husband in Gallahan)

"Your highness, the number of our troops may be equivalent to the number of troops now."

"Why Prince Eugene? Are you scared?"

"No majesty, how can I be afraid not by their numbers. Haven't we fought against more people than this?"

"You're right, so don't worry like that. We'LL DEFINITELY WIN!" Max smiled with a confident grin that his kingdom would win.

"Hey King Istvan! Come here!" king Lottier shouted at Max.

The king of Istvan snickered cynically, he really did not like it if anyone was shouting at him. He took the arrow and released it to King Lostier without fear.

"Whoah!" king Lostier shouted in surprise at the arrow heading towards him.

"Curtain! Too bad the arrow missed," decak King Istvan regretted his arrow that missed. Yes, but he was intentional.

King Lottier's self-esteem is seriously hurt by Max's arrogant attitude. He clenched his hands tightly, restraining his anger.

"Your Majesty, how could that arrogant man ridicule a noble like this? Would you just shut up, your majesty?" William cleared it to the Lostier king, maybe he intended to heat up the man.

"The arrogant man! Wait till he loses everything, I'll get him to his knees in front of me!" Angry shouting.

"Right, it has to be that way. One more noble one, we must exploit his weakness." whispered William with a grin on his lips.

"Yes, we will use that at the last moment." replied King Lostier with eyes that emitted a mist of emotion.

Max throws another arrow this time at William. William was surprised not to play when the arrow of Hampp touched his hand. "Damn it!" willian is upset.

"Hey! Don't whisper like a woman and let's talk to King Lostier."

King Lostier stepped forward into the middle of that border, Max also did the same. Now the two kings face each other, both of them have a strong body. But Max is much younger than the king of Lostier.

"We can still stop all this if you give up on our royal property!" Max attempted to take a peaceful path first before the war.

King Lostier smiled, his att.i.tude so sharp to the man. "Curtain! What did you say? Mine belongs to your kingdom? You're wrong, that mine belongs to the Loster kingdom!"

"You are very stubborn Lostier king, if this war happens then there will be many people who become victims. We better end it peacefully."

King Lostier brushes Max's hand violently, rejecting the peace offered by Max and the Istvan kingdom. "So you want that? Well, I also don't want to give up the mines that are the livelihoods of my people to those who are nobody."

"Let's just fight! Let's spill blood here, and let's see who's gonna win!"

The man challenged Max first, Max sighed at his wife's suggestion last time and he tried, but to no avail.

..."As much as possible, do not let bloodshed between you. Persuade King Lostier first, if it can be completed well then there must be no war that will later cause many casualties and instead create a new story called revenge. Try to persuade him first, your majesty,"...

The words of the wife kept ringing in his head, he had tried his advice but failed. King Lottier who doesn't want to cooperate.

Lily, I'm sorry, baby, but war is inevitable.

Finally the war drums began, the two armies of the two great empires came forward and attacked each other.

"Groan!!"

"Preserve OUR country!" yelled a man

Max has Duke Geraldine as a sword master and Eugene as his strategist. Of course they were both very proud of Max and everyone in the kingdom.

In just 15 minutes, the kingdom of Lostier had lost a lot of its troops.

"Give up King Lostier!" max said to the Lottier king who had begun to panic saw many of his troops who died there.

"WILL NOT!"

But his pride was still so high, he would not budge. Actually the mine problem was not a compelling reason to fight, but there were other reasons. He wanted to defeat Max, get his head then get the recognition from everyone that he could defeat the strongest king in the continent.

King Lottier is not alone in attacking Max, there are two former kings from the kingdom that has been destroyed, come to attack Max as well. They had a grudge against the king.

"You should have just let us die back then" said one man with a wrathful look at Max. He's a former king whose kingdom was destroyed by Max.

"No, I should have let you both live. Since you guys don't deserve to die that easily," Max clashed a sword with the three people, he still hasn't unleashed his magic power for now.

"Based on the arrogant king! We'll make sure your head is cut off today!"

"Just try, don't talk too much!"

The three men fought Max alone, but unfortunately the three men were overwhelmed in the end. They only fight one person. Max is really strong, but he hasn't used his inner power yet.

As the Lottier warriors began to push, King Lostier whispered to one of his soldiers in the middle of the battlefield. I don't know what he whispered to her. That was definitely not a good thing, as there was a grin on his lips.

*****

That night in Istvan's kingdom, Liliana was inside her room and she was agitated at the thought of Max. "Son, may your father return soon..." Liliana stroked her distended stomach.

BRACKET!

Liliana was shocked when her bedroom door opened wide and was forcefully opened. "You..."

"It turns out you're here, Queen Liliana." The man made Liliana dumbfounded, she stared intently at him.
