Chapter 727: Chapter 727: Live Your Life as You Pleased

Nick could protect himself but Loisa and Lei still need my protection.

I want to be able to protect Loisa and Lei with my own sword when necessary. Likewise, I want to be a strong enough leader for our people.

Fret not because I value my life very much. I am not into having myself killed since I am yet to witness all my adorable little siblings grow up and get married.

I am rather saddened though that Loisa is already preparing to get married and asking for marriage arrangements for allies when necessary.

Loisa still has a lot to learn as well and I do not want her sacrificing her freedom for Lobelius. I am reserving my marriage for that matter.

If need be, I already have my eyes set on possible allies who also want to grow their support in these unsure times.

Valeria is indeed such a formidable ally and that is exactly why I want to learn from them at the same time as our knights do.

Rest assured that what I did was merely a prank since I noticed that your husband was fretting of what you might think if something happened to me while in a duel with him (Hehe).

I have no intentions of truly ruining his image on our siblings or intentionally getting in the way of his peaceful relationship with our family just to get what I want.

If I was truly planning on using such a tactic, I wouldn’t have done it in front of you and nor in the presence of our younger siblings.

I was merely trying to test and see how he would react. It was nice seeing his confident self become desperate to prove himself (Hehe).

My apologies for my rudeness but I wanted to see clearly what he would do when placed in such a situation. I’m glad to see he remained rational and quickly thought of a way to clear himself.

Worry not since I will not do it again.

By the way, he is indeed monstrously strong. So much stronger than my dear friend Icarus.

When he had our bout, despite my years of training since childhood, your husband treated me like I was still a child in training and there was no sign of difficulty on his part at all. His expression only changed when he realized he saw my hands bleeding from the sword and when he tightly gripped my wrist and left a mark.

I knew immediately from the expression on his face that he was worried about what you would say in case you saw me in that state while in a bout with him. He kept looking in the direction of Lei’s room where you were staying just to ensure you could not see us.

I don’t know how you made him fall for you that much but I am happy that he truly loves you and values your thoughts and feelings.

Oh, but please, spare me the show. I don’t need to see you all intimate with your lover.

My little Ella who always followed me around was gone a bit too quickly. Go on and be with him just not where we can see you.

I know I cannot be a source of strength to you anymore with a husband as strong and powerful as he is whom you can rely on, but I hope you allow me to learn and grow stronger for the sake of our younger siblings and our people.

I do believe in you. I know you can always do what you want when you put your mind to it. I’ve seen you do it countless times so I know you can do it.

I am very much grateful for your support and assurance to aid Lobelius in times of need. It is a great reassurance. However, please do not overwork yourself either.

Valeria is still a foreign nation and I know there must be a lot of difficulties you have to go through to get their support.

Only in truly desperate need do you need to do everything in your power to aid us. But I’d rather not see that day happen so often so I wish to grow strong enough so you won’t have to go through such lengths for us and focus on your own future.

I am happy enough to see that you have a reliable husband by your side whom you can rely on in that distant place.

I might not have liked him for you just as you did back then, but now that I see he is steadfast and dedicated to you, I am impressed. I hope he continues to do the same.

While I can, please allow me to deal with the problems here. I do not wish for you to trouble yourself too much.

I wanted you to be just Little Ella for a while more but you have already grown and matured.

Now, I simply wish for you to live your life as you pleased and live it to the fullest.

I wish for your happiness. Enjoy your marriage and allow this brother to take care of Lobelius.

Your Loving Brother,

Benjamin

Arabella could not help but smile at her brother’s reply.

Just as much as she wanted to help her homeland, her brother wanted to protect it himself and not rely on her to do the heavy lifting.

Arabella forgot she was the younger sister. Of course her older brother did not want to rely on her on such matters, only when in dire need for the sake of their people.

Her brother was a responsible person and had lived his life thinking of their family and the good of Lobelius.

Since he was set on trying to get stronger, she knew they could not stop him.

She would rather see him become as he wanted to be so he could protect himself.

Arabella was also relieved that he was not serious about using dirty tactics to make Ferdinand bend.
