Chapter 45: A Senseless Strife
People in the world are always self-righteous.
What you do is right, and even if you fail, it is the fault of the world.
You can never make a mistake, especially if you are fighting for your dreams.
Even if those dreams have been distorted to the point that people can't look at them directly, they are still clamoring for their greatness, and they are drifting away on the wrong path.
Burying the happiness of others in the abyss for their own selfish interests.
Moreover, there are some dreams, once you embark on the journey, you can never turn back.
The gap in ideas ushered in a positive conflict, and every amazing cause was built on the bones of the corpses! It's ridiculous, what works hard for the happiness of the people, in the end, is to bury the humble happiness of the common people with his own hands. Even if you wake up, you can't turn back, and the corpses on the other side that were mutilated by you are clearly forcing you to retreat! Is it really worth it to fight over something in the world, to fight for something needlessly, to pay a terrible price for each other, and to lose everything that you instinctively grasp for that ethereal dream that is completely out of touch with reality?
There are some things, the truth is always buried under layers of false appearances, and the person who thought he was doing the right thing for heaven was the real unforgivable bastard who destroyed the peace of the empire, what a ridiculous fate!

City, Hospital.
"Pain...... "" Alcia pulled the pain all over her body and got up from the snow-white bed.
Well? How did I end up here? Didn't I faint on the battlefield?
But I saw Iya walking in with a basin of hot water: "Poor breast, are you awake?" β
Ignoring the other party's rude name, although it was also true, Athea asked, "What's wrong with me, why am I here?" β
Iya shook her long golden hair and put down the basin she was holding in her hand, and little Lori proudly puffed up her almost empty chest: "I rescued you two back!" Thank me! β
"Anyway...... Thank you! Alcia replied with some embarrassment, her cheeks flushing with shame, after all, their relationship was not good enough to be friends.
Iya was taken aback, showing an expression like "A guy like you will also thank people", picked up the water, scrubbed the towel, wrung out the wet towel, and handed it to Athea: "Here, wipe your face!" β
Looking at the other party's slightly stunned expression, Aisia finally knew what kind of blackened image she had in the other party's heart, and took the towel she handed her angrily and funny, and wiped her beautiful face.
The warm heat rose along her face, and an inexplicable feeling of comfort flowed from her face to her whole body.
This little girl is still very careful!
Glancing at the cute little Lori opposite, Aizia sighed in her heart.
Suddenly remembering something, Althea asked, "What about Lan?" β
"Oh, he's ready to get out of bed!" Iya replied lazily and yawned, as if she hadn't slept well in order to take care of the other party.
"Woo...... Uh......" Althea suddenly twitched, and seemed to be in pain all over her body.
Is this the beginning of the effects of the drug? Damn, gotta take medicine!
"Ia, help me with the ...... Bring my clothes over! Enduring the excruciating pain, Ethya pleaded.
"This one?" Iya handed over Athea's clothes, "Here!" β
Athea grabbed her sailor suit with a trembling hand, and her heart felt like it was about to burst: "It hurts! β
Gritting his teeth, he put his hand into the pocket of his clothes, took out the only small bag of medicine left, quickly stuffed it into his mouth, and swallowed it ruthlessly before he had time to chew.
The aches and pains in her body were relieved, and Aisia breathed a long sigh of relief, but looking at the few pills left in the dry bag, Aisia began to cry a little without tears, how could she persist until the end of her hospitalization with such a little medicine?
When I looked up, I saw Ia's big watery eyes: "Are you okay?" Sister Athea. β
It seems that this little girl also felt that Athea's attitude was more friendly to her just now, and she didn't say anything like poor breasts, but still called the other party her sister, and asked with concern.
"It's okay, Iya, I'm just a little bit of an old problem." Alcia replied, but suddenly she felt something strange too. I don't even stutter?!
This is my long-standing dream, hoping to cure my stuttering with the medicine developed by the Empire, but it has come true in this case! What a providence!
But...... I still have to find a way to get through the next few days of recuperation without medicine.
At this moment, a young blond man with a pale face walked in, wearing the same hospital gown as Athea, but slightly larger, and this person was Ran.
"Are you alright?" Lan asked Althea, seemingly apologizing that the other party had been injured because of herself.
"It's okay, thanks to you, otherwise I might have died in the wilderness." Aisia replied, not talking about saving Lan's life, this kind of thing and the other party saving his life can only be regarded as offsetting, if he hadn't suddenly intervened in the battlefield here, with his strength, he might not be injured.
Although he knew that he was for that little Lori of Ia, but she was kind enough to save herself and fell into a crisis, and even in the end, she and Lan relied on her to save their lives. In this regard, Axia could only smile bitterly, and the vinegar in her heart really couldn't be sent out to such an innocent and cute little Lori.
Even, jealousy is unnecessary, and he may not have a place in Lan's heart at all.
She is Lan's relative, and what is herself?
Am I here to suffer when my companions have left me, alone in this world, and have to endure the ravages of drugs?
Who has ever cared about themselves?
In a trance, Aisia was a little dizzy, as if she had seen through this earthly world, and could hardly suppress the outburst of negative emotions.
But suddenly, Aixia's hands were held by a pair of white and pink hands, and she looked up and saw Iya's worried expression: "Sister Aidia, are you okay?" β
"It's fine." Aisia responded by pretending not to care, but she knew the joy of holding her hands in Ia's hands, the excitement of breaking the loneliness.
Maybe I'm not alone anymore......
"You're a member of the Imperial Assassination Team." Lan said lightly, revealing Athea's secret.
"How do you know?" Alcia asked in surprise.
"Strengthened himself by taking the medicine of the Empire, but at the same time caused great damage to the body." Lan's sharp gaze seemed to be able to penetrate Athea.
"Sister Elthea?" Iya looked at Athea who didn't speak, in horror.
"Yes."
"Don't take that drug anymore, that's self-destruction of life." Lan said.
"No, I have to eat, and if I don't, I'll be useless waste, and I'll be disposed of." Alcia said, not allowing Lan's words to interfere with her decision.
"Really?" Lan smiled wryly, turned around and walked out, "You can do it yourself." β
"Sister Athea, don't do this again, okay?" Iya asked.
Silent Ia's head, Aisia responded dotingly: "Sister has something that must be done, this kind of thing is not negotiable. You don't have to worry about me. β
Iya nodded as if she didn't understand, and also got up and walked out: "In short, sister, you have to take care of yourself!" β
"Good!"
This little girl is really kind, no wonder Lan spoils her like this, if I can, I also hope to have such a sister...... Alcia thought.

Underground Vault.
"Luoya, it's time for you to wake up, don't be such a naΓ―ve child anymore!" Chris said, "Blindly believing in your false dreams and doing things that are completely out of touch with reality, you are not saving, but destroying!" β
"Maybe......" Loya weakly lowered his clenched fists and reluctantly admitted, "But, I've come this far, I've killed so many enemies, killed so many partners, I can't turn back!" β
"No, you still have a chance! Stop these ridiculous and senseless strife! Your brother has already left you a way out, come with me, you can regain everything, whether it is money, status or beauty, you were originally a noble eagle, how can you crawl on the ground! Chris discouraged.
"I'm so sorry." Luo Ya refused, how could the so-called friend give up when he said to give up.
It is easier said than done to give up everything for success, but how can it be as difficult as climbing to the sky?
Loya is not cold-blooded, and the gentleness hidden under the coldness makes it impossible for him to make such a choice.
"Maybe my brother is the real genius, I'm just an ordinary man, but even if I am prostrate on the ground, I have to step on the other side of my dreams step by step with my own steps! This is the path I have chosen, and I cannot abandon any of my partners. Whether it's headstrong or naughty, I won't agree with you! Loya said.
"It's really worthy of being an adult's younger brother, and even stubbornness is almost exactly the same!" Chris said, "Since you have decided so, I can't force you, after all, your identity is there, and you won't turn back if you don't let you fall and bleed." β
Turning to the front, no longer looking at Loya and the red pupils, Chris sighed, "Young people now, what a ...... It's so stubborn! β
Loya smiled bitterly at the red pupils, and with the help of the girl, she followed Chris's footsteps to the depths of the secret room.
"Luoya, since you refused, then I have to give you the greatest help possible." Chris said, pulling out a small delicate wooden box from a corner of the chamber and handing it to the boy.
"What is this?"
"The holy relics of the 'Angel of Doom', you should have obtained the holy talisman and the holy sword, this is the last of the three holy relics - the holy ring!"
Loya opened the small wooden box, attracted by the dazzling light that shimmered in it, and the light diffused for a while before shrinking sharply, finally revealing the outline of a ring.
"Your Excellency once said that this is a holy weapon that can only be used by the people of your clan through bloodline. The richer the bloodline, the more powerful it will be. The Holy Sword can be activated through the Holy Talisman and the Holy Blood in your body, and this ring is the key to the Holy Sword. Adults probably didn't expect you to activate the holy sword in advance, and they didn't expect you to get involved in danger so quickly, so you used your life force to urge the holy sword, wasting a lot of years in vain. β
Wearing this beautiful ring, Loya also felt the resonance of blood.
The holy talisman and the holy sword, along with this holy ring, emitted a pure white light, illuminating the somewhat dim underground secret room, Chris was already speechless in surprise, he silently thought: "This guy's blood concentration is so thick, even more than adults!" β
That lord is the person Chris respects the most, his talent, his strength, is almost unparalleled in this world, in front of him, as if no one is worthy of standing, dominating for him to carve the greatest dream in the world.
Unlike Loya's utopia, his idea is the only thing that can save this ruined empire!
Only such a person is worthy of being called a king.
O my king! Your splendor will shine in every corner of the Empire!
Chris blessed Loya's brother with joy.
