"Actually, it's not just the princess, everyone else should stay except Antonla." Ignoring the astonishment, I continued.

'Why?' Everyone asked in unison.

"yes, why am I the only one left out? Just because I'm not human?" Antonla's groove is obviously different from the others, but I don't bother to take care of it at this time.

"Now that the Holy See has learned about the Demon King's awakening, others will definitely know about it soon, and I will definitely become the target of various factions at that time, and it is too dangerous for you to continue to be with me."

"But hasn't it always been like this?" Ah Zi wondered.

"The current situation is different from before, in the past, only a very few people knew my identity, and even the Holy See pursued us on the charge of so-called "heresy", but after the last time we made such a fuss in "Bezukhov", soon everyone will know that I am the incarnation of the Demon King, and everyone will do everything to deal with me, and if you continue to stay by my side, you will inevitably be implicated, so I do this for your good."

"Wait, in that case you're still excluding me, what are you kid about!?" Before the others could answer, Anton La on the side had already continued to pretend to be crazy and stupid.

"I can't do without a helper, can I? There is a great ability among the people who belong to you except me, and they have done so many iniquities, and it is not unjust to die with me."

"You..."At first, when I praised his skills, Anton La's face was quite colorful, but when he heard the second half of the words, he couldn't help but be so angry that the old dragon was furious, and he was even speechless for a while.

"What, am I wrong? In a group of people, except for me, you have the most enemies, otherwise you wouldn't have to hide in Tibet for so many years. I'm afraid I'll make trouble for Scarlett and them..."Now that the words have been spoken, I won't care about it anymore, anyway, I know very well that this "old bachelor" can definitely bear it.

"You... Ah Zi, you give a commentary, is there anyone like him talking like this!?" Seeing that I couldn't get off the stage, Anton La hurriedly turned to Ah Zi for help, although everyone was born and died together for so long and has been extremely close to each other, but to say that the best personal relationship with Anton La is Ah Zi, firstly, he is the most gentle and easy-going, and secondly, the Doragon people have always claimed to be "descendants of the dragon", so compared to other people, Ah Zi's inner resistance to the "dragon clan" can be said to be the least.

If it was in normal times, even if Ah Zi knew that Anton La was mostly cute and coquettish at this time, she would still inevitably comfort her, but today she was unusual, and she didn't pay attention to Anton La at all, but forced me to ask: "So you want to leave us behind and bear the next danger alone?"

"Not alone, you forgot about Anton La..."

"Come less!" Ah Zi interrupted me rudely, such a violent reaction was extremely rare in her.

"I know you're doing this for our own good, and you don't want to put us in danger, but have you asked our opinion? We are also human beings, we have our own thoughts, our own personalities, and we have the right to determine our own future. Yes, maybe the enemy you face in the future is so strong that we won't be able to help much even if we follow you, but if we let you face it alone, will we be better? Can our consciences be at ease? You seem to be thinking about other people, but in fact you are extremely arrogant, you think you care about others, but do you really understand what other people are thinking!?"

Ah Zi's words were deafening, and I was speechless for a while, yes, for a long time, I always felt that I was burdening the people around me and owed them a lot, so I thought about how to make up for everything, but in fact, I really understood the true thoughts of others? Whether it's Ah Zi, the princess, or even Ellie, who has been separated, in fact, many times I just make decisions for them from my own point of view, and I don't understand what they really need...

"Ah Zi, don't be like this, Kane has no malice in doing this..."At this time, Xiao Jia on the side hurriedly stepped forward to clear the siege.

"Xiaojia, you don't have to be like this, in fact, what Ah Zi just said is right, maybe I've been too selfish all along. I'm sorry that I always think of myself without thinking about everyone's feelings... I can let you decide for yourself this time, but I just want you to understand that the enemy we will face in the future will be more dangerous and murderous than before, and I cannot guarantee the safety of everyone..."

"Hehe, you better think about how to take care of yourself first. We don't have to worry about you." The princess said confidently, and although she still had a tired face despite her serious injuries, I had no doubt about the truth of these words.

"Well, we can." Ah Zi couldn't help but clench her fists as she spoke, and I guess at that moment she might have thought of Wald.

"Since everyone is going, then count me in." Xiao Jia hesitated for a while, but finally made a statement. I can understand her hesitation, after all, this is originally a cautious person, she neither has the compassion of Ah Zi, nor is she like the princess who bears the responsibility of defending justice, she joined us only to escape the pursuit of the wizarding guild and wash away her grievances, but unfortunately, after that, she was greeted by a series of birth and death. It's fair to say that she's probably the most qualified person to choose to stay, but she ultimately decided to stay with us, and what can I say about this choice but to be grateful.

"Thank you..."

"Don't get me wrong, we're actually doing this for ourselves, and we will never have peaceful days until this war ends." The princess looked into the distance and said coldly.

"Hey, wait, doesn't anyone care about my opinion?" At this time, Anton La on the side couldn't help but say loudly.

"So are you going or not?" I asked with a sneer, in fact, I knew in my heart that Anton La was just joking all along, he knew the current situation better than anyone in the room, and he himself would never back down, and there was no room to back down.

"Hmph, I really don't have a sense of humor..."Anton glanced at me and said angrily, although it was not quite what I expected, but in the end, the five of us chose to face the next challenge together, a challenge that was destined to kill you...

"So what's next?" Xiao Jia was the first to ask.

"I want to go up Mount Quds first..."

'What?' Everyone present was amazed when I said this, and even Lance, who had always been calm, couldn't help but look at me with wide eyes.

"It's... Too risky, isn't it?" Ah Zi immediately expressed his concern.

"Wait, don't you kid want to go straight to Lancelop for a head-to-head showdown, right?" Antonla, after all, was the first to perceive my intentions after spending her initial astonishment.

"yes, it's the crux of this whole thing." I nodded in reply.

"No, it's too dangerous." The princess objected at the first time, and the expression on her face was like frost.

"Not to mention the thousands of mountains and rivers along the way, the guards of the Holy City Mountain alone are not something that a few of us can handle, even if you are now half a demon king, you can't do it..."

"Actually, it's not half a half, strictly speaking I'm only one seventh...", I corrected with a smile.

"And you're still taking risks?" The princess asked rhetorically.

"Actually, the current situation is not as bad as you think, at least now we still have two advantages under our hands." I had already guessed that this would be the reaction, so I was not in a hurry at all, but explained to everyone slowly.
