Maple moon free collar, the capital of Zelan.
The parliament building in Freedom Square was brightly lit and full of seats.
On the square outside the building, the huge crystal screen projected the scene of the venue, and there were a sea of people on the square.
All the leaders turned their eyes to the solemn platform in the parliament building.
Today is a special day.
Fengyue free collar, known as the light of life, ushered in the 80th anniversary of independence.
At the same time, this is also the day when the general election of Fengyue free leader consul officially came out.
In the venue, representatives from all walks of life gathered together in dignified clothes.
Their eyes focused on the elegant and beautiful figure on the podium, with an expression of respect.
Sophia von wells.
She is the founder of maple moon freedom collar, the great freedom leader and the saint of life in the human world.
At the same time, she is also the most admired person of all young men and women with maple moon free collar.
Today, she looks more beautiful and noble in a white dress.
She was holding a magic microphone in one hand and a golden scroll in the other, with a smile on her face. Her elegant and beautiful voice rang through the sky of the meeting:
"Now... I declare -"
"According to the final voting results, Mr. Blake Schwartz, the mayor of olstown, was elected with 77.5% of the votes, which is the symbol and symbol of Fengyue free collar chief executive.
Sophia gently picked up her badge and put it on tiptoe.
While wearing it, she couldn't help sighing:
"I still remember that on the podium, black took a deep breath, calmed down and began his speech:
"Today, I am honored to be successfully elected as the 21st chief executive of Fengyue free collar..."
Sophia looked at the podium again, smiled, and then quietly left the meeting.
……
Outside the venue, the temperature was a little cooler than indoor.
Today's weather is very clear, the sky is high and the clouds are light, and the blue sky seems to have been washed, deep and charming.
On the square outside the building, there were also people who could not see the end. They cheered and held up a sign with black's name, looking excited.
Seeing this scene, Sophia pondered for a moment, changed her direction and walked to the remote street on one side.
It's easy for a gold professional to deliberately avoid the sight of mortals.
Sophia crossed the street without alerting anyone.
Over the past decades, Fengyue free collar has developed more and more prosperous, and earth shaking changes have taken place in Zelan, the capital.
The buildings are higher and higher year by year, the popularity of magic is wider and wider year by year, and the streets of the city are cleaner and cleaner year by year.
Looking at the rapidly changing territory, Sophia's eyes were full of emotion.
After 80 years, it seems that the day of revolution is still yesterday.
"Don't you go on with the rest of the celebration?"
An old voice sounded behind her.
Sophia didn't seem surprised, or... She had already sensed each other's presence.
She looked back slightly, looked behind her, smiled and said:
"Finn, aren't you the same?"
Behind her was an old priest with silver hair.
If the life priests of Fengyue free collar are here, they will salute him respectfully, because he is no one else, but the chief priest of the Life Church in Fengyue parish.
After hearing Sophia's words, the old priest sighed softly:
"When people are old, they will be tired after a long meeting, so they want to come out for a walk."
"Tell the truth."
Sophia smiled.
Looking at her penetrating eyes, the old priest looked helpless:
"Well, I saw you coming out, so I'll follow up and have a look."
"Me? My mission has been completed. Naturally, I don't need to stay there. I should give the stage to new people."
Sophia raised her eyebrows.
"Do you really not consider continuing to serve for another term..."
The old priest looked helpless.
"You have to give young people a chance."
Sophia shook her head.
The old priest was silent for a moment and said:
"But you should know that no one has a higher reputation than you. If you participate in the election, you will be able to be re elected smoothly, and... You know that you are welcome to continue your re-election."
"But I've been re elected for too long..."
Sophia shook her head again.
She looked at the sky, her eyes did not know where they were. After a long time, she slowly took back her eyes and sighed:
"When I first became a consul, my plan was to work for only eight years and retire when everything was on track..."
"As a result, eight years later, eight years later, eight years later..."
"Now, it has been eighty years..."
Then Sophia said with a bitter smile:
"Too long, this time is too long. Even the liberators who fought with me have already passed away..."
"Now, it's just you and me."
After listening to Sophia's words, the old man's expression also brought a trace of emotion:
"Yes... Eighty years have passed."
"I still remember the time when evil cults wreaked havoc on the territory. I was a militia forcibly recruited by fallen nobles. I didn't know where the future was."
"At that time, I'm afraid I never thought that I would become the head of a parish..."
"If it weren't for the power of faith that made me a high-level extraordinary, I'm afraid I, like those comrades in arms, would have been turned into earth decades ago."
Then his eyes fell on Sophia and sighed:
"But... After 80 years, you look no different... Still so young, so beautiful and so noble..."
"Of course, I am a half elf. Although my life is not as long as that of a real elf, it is more than ten times that of ordinary humans."
Sophia sighed.
"I'm old... I always feel that I can't see clearly recently. It's estimated that I'm a little dazzled."
The old man smiled.
After hearing what he said, Sophia raised her head and looked at him with some complicated eyes.
Her eyes swept over the old man's wrinkled face and nodded:
"It's old. Now you look like an old willow bark."
The old priest hesitated slightly and said helplessly:
"Lord Sophia, you are still so bad..."
"Ha ha ha..."
Sophia laughed.
A moment later, they were quiet. Sophia looked at the crowded street in the distance and became distracted.
After a long time, the old priest could not help but speak again:
"Are you... Going to leave Fengyue free collar?"
Sophia was silent.
"Where are you going? You are a beacon in people's hearts. If you are gone, I'm afraid many people will be sad."
The old priest continued to ask.
Sophia shook her head:
"But even I... Can't guard the territory all my life."
"My task has been completed. The rest should be handed over to new people and let go... In order to make them grow better."
"As for me..."
Sophia paused and shook her head:
"I don't know yet. Maybe... I'll travel around the world."
Then she stopped.
However, his eyes quietly looked at the distant street.
However, although she was looking at the street, her far-reaching eyes seemed to be looking further away.
"Are you... Waiting for someone?"
The old priest suddenly asked.
"Why do you say that?"
"I've heard some rumors... Why haven't you been married..."
"It's just some rumors. It's not true."
"But I know that you have always kept correspondence with the spirit forest. You will receive and send letters every month. On your birthday, you will smile quietly at the gifts sent by Amway chamber of Commerce."
"Are you watching me?"
"No... Lord Sophia, this is no longer a secret at the top. The only thing you don't realize is that everyone already knows, only you."
Sophia:
"But if I remember correctly, you haven't received any new letters for a long time. Will the people you're waiting for... Really come?"
Asked the old priest.
After listening to him, Sophia's eyes were a little confused.
"I... I don't know."
"But I want to wait..."
Looking at her blurred vision, the old priest sighed:
"I see..."
Then he looked at the sky and said:
"It's getting late. I should go back to the meeting."
"You look a little tired. Don't stay out too long."
Then the old priest left.
Sophia was left alone in the street, staring at the street view in the distance.
The conference ended soon.
The sun is also gradually sinking, and the crowd gathered in the square is gradually dispersed
Soon, dusk... Came.
Sophia stood alone in the street, her shadow pulling long and long in the dim yellow light
At this moment, she did not look like a retiring consul, but more like a lonely girl.
She stood for a long time
However, I didn't see what I wanted to see.
Gradually, the last ray of sunshine disappeared on the horizon.
Sophia's expression was also hidden in the dark.
She sighed and turned away.
However, as she stepped forward, there was a voice of some cynicism behind her:
"Hi, this beautiful lady! I heard that you seem to have just quit your job. I happen to have a great job here that needs someone to do. Do you want to do it?"
Sophia trembled at the familiar voice.
She stopped, did not look back, but asked with some trembling:
"What job?"
"Cough, I opened a small chamber of Commerce. Now I lack a manager. I heard you are good at management. Do you have any interest?"
Asked the cynical voice.
Sophia smiled, but there seemed to be something shining in front of her eyes:
"No... I don't want to. I'm tired and don't want to be in charge anymore."
"What a coincidence! The manager I want doesn't have to take care of too many things. In fact, there is only one person she wants to take care of."
The voice continued.
"What does she care?"
Sophia asked.
"Mind me."
The other said frivolously.
Sophia trembled, slowly turned back and saw the familiar figure looking at her with a smile.
"I'm sorry... I'm late. I've been to a far, far place in recent years. It's hard to catch up with the news of your seclusion."
The man scratched his head and apologized.
Hearing this, Sophia curled her mouth:
"What do I have to do with you? What are you doing back?"
"What relationship? What relationship do you mean? Is there anyone in the world who doesn't know our relationship?"
"At least... I don't know."
"No! My princess! What about all these years of friendship?!"
"You haven't contacted me for years."
"Well... I'm really sorry... I really went to a far place, far away from all the planes before. I can talk to you later. It was a more wonderful adventure..."
"Who wants to listen to your adventure?"
"Ah, this... Is not... You... I... I..."
Looking at each other's embarrassed appearance, Sophia burst into laughter:
"Well, I won't tease you."
As she spoke, her eyes softened in an instant:
"Can you... Repeat what you said before?"
The figure on the other side was stunned. He quickly reacted, made a gentleman's courtesy and extended his hand to Sophia:
"Beautiful princess, my chamber of Commerce lacks a manager. Are you interested in coming with me?"
"Of course..."
Sophia's tears were shining, but she handed her hand with a happy smile:
"Mr. demacia."
