Chapter 193: Dessert and Feelings
However, an unexpected person appeared in the scene.
“Although our acquaintance was very brief, Princess Liana, you were a very interesting and excellent person.” Princess Avira of the Elf Forest, holding fresh flowers, came to Venus Manor and placed them at Liana’s grave.
Afterward, she approached Mephilia. “I never expected that you, Princess Mephilia, would give up your position as heir.”
“What? Are you disappointed in me?” Mephilia looked at her.
Avira shook her head. “Rather, I see the shadow of my sister in you, Princess Mephilia.”
“Your sister?”
“Yes, my sister, whom I mentioned to Princess Mephilia before; Sephirena,” Avira said.
Mephilia’s current situation was actually very similar to Sephirena’s. Both had lost important people, leading them to make some irrational and impulsive decisions.
“I’m sorry, Princess Avira, but giving up my position as heir was a decision I made after discussing it with Liana. It wasn’t an impulsive action due to her sudden departure. I just didn’t expect that I was still one step too late, or perhaps my actions accelerated things
“Perhaps this was why Liana always tried to stop me, but I didn’t understand. It’s my fault that Liana died.” Mephilia blamed herself deeply.
Self-blame...
The more Avira looked, the more Mephilia resembled Sephirena. She didn’t want to see another excellent person become self-destructive due to guilt and regret.
