Chapter 47: The Dawn of Peace

"This is not peace, this is just a truce of twenty years!" With the conclusion of the French Marshal Foch, which seemed to be a prophecy, the entire Paris Peace Conference came to an end.

"Human beings, all the time, make repeated mistakes, even if they know it's wrong, but for various reasons, they will continue this path."

What El saw at the Paris Peace Conference was a group of smart people arguing and conspiring over something stupid, and then laughing and reaching an outcome that no one was happy with.

"I'm tired, El." Diana said to El that Diana had also expected a great war, but she no longer wanted to do anything about it.

Because she knew that even if she tried her best, what she saved was only a drop of water in the ocean, and although the flame in her heart was still not extinguished, it could not withstand the tempering of another world war.

Every time she saw the soldiers on the battlefield, Diana felt an unspeakable pain, their sacrifice taken for granted, their wails not exchanged for any mercy.

And sometimes, these poor-looking soldiers turn into the most terrible demons.

"Maybe it's time for us to take a break." Even El, accustomed to seeing death, is extremely indifferent, but also shocked by the terrible self-destruction of human beings, if it is the kind of weak-willed person, after seeing everything El and Diana have seen, I am afraid that he will only become a villain who hates the world.

After witnessing everything, El and Diana returned to England, Sir Patrick was gone, everyone who knew Diana and El was gone, the war was over, and all the past was gone.

On the outskirts of London, a manor house was handed over to a young man and woman, and the pain of war had not yet passed, but the revelry of capital standing in the Second Reich and the corpses of the Habsburgs had begun.

It's been a decade of prosperity, it's a decade of rejoicing.

But none of this had anything to do with El and Diana, and after settling everything in London, El and Diana returned to Paradise Island.

"Oh, my dear daughter." After seeing Diana, Hippolyta caressed Diana's face lovingly, although the years did not leave half a trace on Diana's cheeks, but through those eyes, Hippolyta knew everything.

"Thank you, El, for protecting Diana." Hippolyta thanked El.

"No thanks, Your Majesty, this is what I want to do." El motioned to Hippolyta not to say thanks, even if she hadn't asked for it, he would do the same.

"Come back this time, stay on Paradise Island in peace, Diana, your mission has been accomplished." At the banquet to welcome Diana, Hippolyta said with some joy and some sadness.

Joy and sorrow come from the same reason, that is, Diana's growth, the once innocent princess of the paradise island no longer exists, and now there is only an Amazon warrior with strong faith, a demigod, a great hero.

"No, Mother, I won't stay on Paradise Island." But in the face of her mother's earnest retention, Diana refused.

"One thing I have learned from my long travels is that it is not my duty to kill Ares, but my real duty is to give hope to those in despair." Diana's tone was firm and powerful.

Hearing Diana's words, Hippolyta remained silent for a long time, knowing that she could no longer stop her daughter.

"Then do what you want." Hippolyta did not stop Diana, since the young eagle was already soaring in the sky, there was absolutely no reason to cut off its wings.

After obtaining her mother's consent, Diana had a happy smile on her face, although she had already prepared, but if her actions could be recognized by her family, it would be very happy.

But unbeknownst to Diana, Hippolyta had secretly found El.

"Her Majesty!" El didn't know about Hippolyta's intentions, in fact, the queen hid a lot, and the queen had a very deep understanding of the gods, which was why Hippolyta didn't want Diana to step out of paradise island.

"The death of Ares is a foregone conclusion, but this is just a foreshadowing, and the gods are about to wake up, which is not a good thing." Straight to the point, Hippolyta told El directly what she thought of the gods.

"I know, but don't worry, Your Majesty, the gods are just the afterglow of a bygone era in this era." Are the gods strong? Of course. But it depends on who they're up against.

The power of the gods, in fact, comes more from people's awe, in ancient times, superman, vision they are the supreme gods, but in modern times, even without these superheroes, human beings have enough power to fight these gods.

The reason why Ares didn't join the battlefield himself, or destroy modern civilization directly, was because he couldn't do it.

"I know that the development of mankind has made a new breakthrough in this era, and the paradise island is not closed in all aspects, and the boat at the ferry is not just for Diana." Hippolyta said with a smile, indicating that she was not a stubborn antique.

"But I'm worried about Diana, the gods are tyrannical, I don't want to involve Diana in that dispute, and in countless futures, I see you. You have that ability to protect Diana. ”

"Protect Diana?" Of course, El knew the personalities of the Greek gods, and they were just a bunch of unscrupulous people. "Of course I will."

El thought of the blood in Diana's body, after all, demigods still have limitations, and in the face of some gods, Diana will have pressure even if she stands in front of each other. El believed that Diana could handle the pressure, but it was still necessary to make the necessary insurance.

A chain appeared in El's hand.

"It can be protected from her." Different from the rope appearance of the mantra lasso, the lasso that appeared in El's hand was the shape of an iron chain, but the aura faintly revealed on it showed the extraordinaryness of the other party.

"Enkidu, good weapon." A familiar voice rang in his ears, and a man dressed as a mage appeared beside El.

"Supreme Mage?" The old man was none other than the Supreme Mage Ancient One that Elr had ever seen.

"The first time we met, oh, it can't be said to be the first time we met." The Ancient One smiled at El's surprise.
