The chief's gaze refracted across the void, and finally refocused on me. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Do you think a new leader who has been appointed by usurping power will be loved by the people?" His hoarse voice rang out in the space.

"I want to ...... No way. I thought for a moment and shook my head.

"Hmm." The chief approving.

"So, what do you think of a heroic monarch who always saves people from fire and water?" The chief asked again.

"This ...... It will definitely be the object of the people's support. I blurted out without even thinking about it.

The chief smiled softly, "That's right, exactly. ”

"Well, then, I'll ask you again." He slowly paced in front of me, meeting my eyes.

"When the country of Manyo was about to be destroyed because the Sacred Tree of the Protector was about to be corrupted, who stood up to save the country?" The chief's eyes seemed to have nails hidden, and he pinned my gaze to the place.

"Yes...... I? I replied blankly.

"On the battlefield of Kazuha and Weaving Stars, who is the one who takes the lead and is willing to be a pioneer?" He took another step closer.

"Yes...... I. I nodded.

"In the end, when the people of the Wanyo Kingdom are in exile in the valley and fall into the trap of monsters, who is it to destroy the demon caves, destroy the barriers, and save everyone from the dark fear?!" The chief's voice grew louder and louder, and when the last word came out, it shook my ears.

"It's me!"

"It's me!"

"It's me!"

I keep affirming.

That's right, it's me.

These things are indeed me.

"So, who is qualified to lead this country, even if it is now covered in bruises?" The chief stared at me deadly, only one step away from me.

"Me."

My eyes were no longer confused, and my firm tone was full of trust in myself and response to the old man in front of me.

"I've said what I'm going to say." The chief nodded approvingly, his form gradually turning into nothingness, "The rest is up to you." ”

I waved goodbye to the chief and looked at my hands.

For some reason, unlike previous meetings, I seemed to understand what he was saying.

With the chieftain gone, my consciousness gradually escaped and collapsed in the soul space.

……

In a familiar wave of vertigo, I returned to my body again.

The scene in front of me has not changed in the slightest from before I entered the soul space, and even the posture of my body is still the same as before I was pulled in.

"Noelle, I ......" Even my words were still in a state of freshly blurted out.

But this time, I changed my mind.

Noelle turned his head and looked at me quietly.

“…… I want to take back my dominion. ”

I looked at his aqua blue eyes, word by word, sonorous and powerful.

"What, master, are you crazy?" When Elise heard this, she immediately lost her voice.

Even the way Star Ring and Noelle looked at me became strange.

"Boy, what are you thinking?" Starring stared at me, his tone full of bewilderment and disbelief.

Noelle also showed a confused expression, "Although I did tell you these things just now, it doesn't mean that I want you to take back your throne." ”

"Hope?" I shook my head, "No, no, no, no, it's not your will, it's what I want to do." ”

"I will lead this country, I will establish a new order, I will expel those usurpers who will not leave any of them, right here, right in this Shining Valley!" I straightened my back, and the words kept coming out of my mouth.

"Jokes." Starring couldn't help but scoff.

Then he slowly stood up, lifted my collar, and pressed me against the wall.

Although he was a mage, I could not resist the power he exerted on me, so I had to bear it in silence.

"Boy, did you just have a problem with one string?" He asked, staring silently into my eyes.

"I see that your expression suddenly became a little different from you just now." The strength of the Ring's hand did not diminish in the slightest, and he stuck me tightly against the wall, "You can't suddenly lose your mind because of a twitch of your brain. ”

"That's not what I think of you." He added one last sentence.

I turned my head away, stopped looking at him, and didn't reply.

"No comment, huh?"

"Well, since you insist on this, then I'll ask you." Star Ring sneered.

His eyes were still locked on my face, "You just kept saying that you want to establish a new order and lead this country, so let me ask you, how are you going to lead this country in exile?" Come up with your statecraft?! ”

I was silent.

Because I really can't come up with a plan.

"You can't take it out, right, I'll move on." He held my hand a little harder.

"I think you seemed to say, 'Expel them'?" Star Ring sneered twice again, "What a joke. ”

"Do you think it's easy for someone else, as a systematic political group, who controls and governs everything in this exiled country, and puts all the chaos into order?" "If you expel such a group," he asked, "how are you going to maintain order and daily life in this country?" ”

"Just because of the false name of a protector and inheritance, you will deprive them of the right to govern, and the country will be in chaos again." His tone became more and more intense, "What is the difference between you and a tyrant like this?" I'm afraid you're the real usurper. ”

"I think the reason why they want to prevent you from coming back to inherit the throne is probably to prevent this from happening now." He pressed me against the wall, and my words and actions kept me moving.

Speechless.

The frenzy that had just been ignited by Nai Lago was now as if it had been doused with a bucket of ice water. Every word that came out of the ring's mouth struck my nerves and prompted me to reflect.

"Lord Protector......" Noelle walked up to me and looked at me worriedly.

"Ahem." Somewhat out of breath by the star ring, I looked at him and smiled bitterly, "Don't call me this name, you can call me the Edge Night." ”

The strength in the ring's hand was instantly relieved, and I slid down the stone wall behind me to the ground.

"What the hell happened to you?" Starring's eyes were full of doubt.

I shook my head bitterly, "No, I don't know either. ”

It was just a conversation with the chief, why did we do such a thing?

I gradually woke up from the madness just now, stared at my palm, and didn't say a word.
