Chapter 157: Persuasion (1)

Kenna's mood has been even worse in recent days, even though she has been given the coveted chance to return to the stage. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

In fact, this opportunity was the most direct cause of her bad mood.

Contradictory? No, of course.

A few days earlier, Kenna had learned from her boss that she would soon be able to return to the stage. The opportunity was given up by the Midnight Lady, who thought that she could not let her young self go to waste, and secondly, she declared that she was tired of playing beautiful roles such as beauty and queen, and wanted to find novelty, so she was ready to suspend her theatrical performance and only play the harp solo, intending to conquer all the audiences in Crescent City with only her piano skills - perhaps this is the eccentric thinking that only a super-first-class artist can have! As for the former, Kenna expressed great gratitude.

The opportunity to return to the stage came sooner than expected, much earlier, so Kenna was particularly excited. She has been preparing for two days to celebrate her return with a flawless performance, but also to make the audience remember herself, and what she is most looking forward to is to be able to enjoy the heart-stopping cheers again.

However, the truth was unforgiving, and she was struck, hard, fatally.

On the stage, she was greeted not by cheers or applause, but by boos, boos all over the sky, and even ridicule, abuse and ...... Repulsion. Not because she's not good enough, it's simply because she's not a midnight lady.

The audience's affection for Midnight Lady has become more than reverence or intoxication but worship – as much as faith – and they can't tolerate another actor playing the same role, even if that actor is perfect.

Clearly, everyone in the troupe underestimated the charm of Midnight Lady, including Midnight Lady herself.

The matter finally settled down with the strong intervention of the Midnight Lady, but no amount of comfort or warmth from all sides could change Kenna's dead heart.

This kind of encounter is too cruel for an actor. It's like being blackfaced, castrated, broken spine, and all dignity and self-confidence crushed to pieces by a great humiliation, swept away, and then gone. If you don't have a strong mind, you may never be able to be an actor again......

Kenna, who lost her soul, welcomed Mephis the next day, which is good, this is a woman that her brother likes and likes. Kenna was happy to stay with her. Even if you don't do anything, just chatting is a beautiful enjoyment.

However, the slightly better mood lasted less than half a day, and then fell to the bottom again.

Because, the "devil in black" is coming.

Civic Theatre.

In its supporting tavern, in a relatively quiet booth in the corner, Ye Guyun, Mephis, and Kenna sat opposite each other.

Atmosphere...... It's awkward.

Ye Guyun and Mephis's faces had a happy smile on their faces like an old friend meeting, but after all, it was difficult to resist the hateful and indifferent look on Kenna's face.

There was no wine on the table, only two bottles of perfume, which were gifts brought by Ye Guyun, after fine packaging, the container was a high-quality glass bottle with a clear and clear shape like a treasure, and there were labels on the bottle, in addition to a bunch of beautiful lingua franca with rounded fonts, there were also a few large square symbols that were highlighted but could not understand the meaning - I felt tall when I looked at it. Kenna, however, only glanced at it, and did not turn her gaze to it.

What a stubborn girl.

It was not a way to let it be awkward, so Ye Guyun was the first to speak, he looked at Kenna, and said, "You seem to already know who I am, so it seems that there is no need for me to introduce myself." ”

"Of course. Kenna's expression remained the same, her hatred remained the same, and her indifference remained the same," Saphius, a visitor from another world, a 'black-clad devil', a legendary-level powerhouse, Grand Duke Josephine, Lord of Crescent City, patriarch of the House of Ashlon, chief advisor to His Excellency 'Venerable' Thurman Ashlon, and...... To one of the culprits who killed my brother in battle. ”

"No! it's not like that!" it was Mephis who hurriedly spoke, she looked bitter, sad and anxious, she definitely didn't want to see the lover's sister and good friend have an inexplicable misunderstanding, "Kent's death has nothing to do with Saphius, if you have to find a culprit, it can only be me, Kent sacrificed to save me......"

"Sister Mephis, you don't need to tell for him. I'm an adult and I have my own judgment. In response to Mephis, Kenna glared at Ye Guyun again, "The battle process is clearly recorded, and there is no room for deception or quibble." At that time, if he hadn't been reckless and accidentally lost, you wouldn't have forced your hand to save him and suffered an ambush, and my brother wouldn't have died tragically to save you. He is the culprit!"

"No!" Mephis shook his head repeatedly: "This is just the appearance, the real reason is not in this." ”

"What's that?" Kenna raised her tone slightly, "Or is it the 'necessity' you mentioned?" sorry, I can't believe that. ”

"And what else can you believe?"

What followed was Ye Guyun's low drink. In fact, he had long been unhappy, for he could not bear the sorrow he had never seen before on Mephis's usual cheerful face. And when he heard Kenna's somewhat stubborn and arrogant denial, his temperament was suddenly aroused, and he exploded.

"You self-righteous child will only look at the small place in front of you with naïve, naïve, short-sighted, and narrow-minded eyes, and stubbornly think that what you see is the truth, the truth, and everything! You can't listen to any advice, you can't tolerate the slightest dissent, but if you don't agree with each other, you will do something offensive, and you only have a little ink in your belly, but you always like to question authority, and you claim to be extremely intelligent, but in fact you are a fool! People like you are a frog curled up at the bottom of a well all day long, and you can't see anything around in your life, and you proudly think that the sky above your head is the whole world!"

This is excessive.

Kenna's tone may have been a little overstepping, and her thoughts were indeed quite extreme, but she was by no means necessary to withstand such a stormy verbal attack, and she was still a long way from the hopeless stupidity of which she was criticized.

This is an emotional catharsis caused by Ye Guyun's loss of control after being stimulated and combined with some unpleasant memories from the past.

However, she was unusually strong, and she did not show a trace of cowardice in the face of this excessive accusation.

Facing Ye Guyun's cold gaze, Kenna mocked: "Stating the crooked reasoning of the big paragraph has no effect, I will only regard it as the helpless sophistry of the 'black-clothed devil'!"

People who are out of control probably can't realize that they are out of control, and Ye Guyun is the same, in the face of provocation and resistance, all he thinks of is to press down with a strong bullet.

"Sophistry? Okay, let's just sophistry. Ye Guyun sneered, "With your logic, can I say that the source of the tragedy is actually the Luoshanda Church? If they hadn't chosen Kent to carry out that task, there would be nothing behind." ”

Kenna retorted angrily: "Phew! Don't try to provoke! The source can only be you! It's the Dominion government! It's the Ehiron family! It's you degenerate and corrupt nobles! If you hadn't provoked the incident, there would be no later tasks! My brother died because of the evil schemes of your group of nobles! Don't think about relying on others!"

Ye Guyun showed an expression that was really like this, and asked mockingly: "So, purifying the Advance Fort, eliminating the lich that stole it, recovering an unclean land, and rebuilding the old homeland have also become evil plots?"

Kenna was stunned and speechless.

Obviously, these purposes are not worthy of the word evil in any way, but on the contrary, they are incomparably righteous, albeit by a group of "corrupt and degenerate" nobles.

"I don't think you're paranoid enough to ignore the basic facts, so what reason do you have to question the legitimacy of this mission?" Then, Ye Guyun let out a final blow, "Go on." With your logic, the source of the tragedy can only be Kent himself. Who called him a holy warrior? Since he has embarked on this path of pursuing justice, punishing evil and promoting good, he will inevitably not be able to shirk a similar dangerous task full of legitimacy, and even if he dies for it, he will not blame anyone. This is his choice, this is his pursuit. If he were not such a pure and zealous rotten good man, he would not have to bear this responsibility, and he could have had countless excuses to refuse a similar dangerous task. ”

Out of the corner of their eye, their eyes widened, not only Kenna, but also Mephis, and something called anger began to appear in their expressions.

"Of course, I don't agree with this view, it's shameless, it's cold, it's an insult to Kent's great deeds and noble character. Ye Guyun's tone slowed down greatly, not that he noticed the expressions of the two women, but that he gradually calmed down, "I just want to explain that with your logic, it can lead to this unacceptable point of view, and it is not so reliable...... I want to tell you that what you see and think is not necessarily true...... A person's cognition is easily swayed by external objects......"

sighed, glanced at Kenna, and finally, Ye Guyun said in a deep voice: "When can you put aside your preset positions and inherent prejudices, and you will have the opportunity to see the truth of things, and only then will you have the opportunity to ...... Jump out of that well that exists in your heart and see the whole world!"

There was silence in the booth.

Ye Guyun was excited, Mephis hung her head silently, and Kenna just stared at Ye Guyun with her eyes flickering, not knowing what she was thinking.

After a long time, Kenna said, "I admit that you won the debate, but I still can't accept your arguments. ”

"It's up to you," Ye Guyun no longer wanted to pay attention to this overly stubborn girl, "I have given the kind advice, and it's your business to listen to it or not." Anyway, no matter how many setbacks you experience in the future, how many traumas you will encounter, how many good things you will miss, you will always bear it yourself. As you said, you're an adult, and you have to take responsibility for your actions......"

"That's right—"

Ye Guyun knocked on the table, and then said coldly: "If you still believe that I am the culprit who killed Kent, then you are welcome to come to me for revenge, at any time, in any way, by any means." But, don't take your anger out on other people!"

After a pause, he added: "In addition, I will tell you one more piece of news that can raise the hatred - the plan to purify the fort has been carried out by me alone from beginning to end! It is my strong insistence that will lead to that ......action."

"Sapphius, don't do this!" Mephis interrupted.

It's too late.

The stimulated Kenna slapped the table, angrily, glared at Ye Guyun, shook her head and turned around, without saying a word, and left.

A sigh.

It seems that she didn't listen to a single word of all the words just now. (To be continued.) )
