“——【I hope that one day, my achievements will spread like the wind to every corner of the continent.】”
Facing the child's angry gaze, Su Mingan said this in a very soft voice, barely audible.
But Hui Shuhang heard it.
She tilted her head, the energy in her hands slightly relaxed, and there was confusion in her expression.
"【I want everyone to be able to live upright in the wasteland, I want them to no longer kneel down, and their blood no longer spills into the soil meaninglessly. I want those who leave to be away from the flames of war, and those who return to the country to have a home to return to.】
[——I will go to a grand death, but I want new birds, children who no longer cry, and people who shed tears of gratitude to sing at my grave.]"
Su Mingan finished speaking slowly, tapped his palms, and smiled:
“…I see. I understand.”
"What?" Hui Shuhang asked, slowly lowering his hand.
The child got up from the ground and seemed to have given up the idea of rushing forward. He stared at Su Mingan with a look of surprise, then picked up the broken dagger and rushed out without looking back.
The crowd began to move slowly, but no one dared to look over here anymore. They lowered their heads, everyone was in danger, as if they were deliberately avoiding the two of them, and formed a big circle around Su Mingan.

"The reputation of the regular army doesn't seem to be very good." Su Mingan knew that the "fake army" the child was talking about was the regular army.
"The people are always stupid. They don't understand the importance of stability." Hui Shuhang consoled him: "In order to fight against those disorderly revolutionary armies, war is a necessary sacrifice."
"——Then why did the Revolutionary Army come here?"
Su Mingan spoke in a low voice.
Hui Shuhang blinked and tightened her grip, but said nothing.
"It's a vicious cycle." Su Ming'an said: "Under this morbid order, there will only be an endless stream of revolutionary armies appearing, and then there will be endless regular armies to conquer them..."
"I let that child go. Hatred will be buried deep in his heart. When he joins the revolutionary army in the future, he will remember today's humiliation, and then return this hatred to the enemy army that stands in his way."
"——But these people in the regular army were clearly conscripted from his village, innocent people."
"He thought the people under his blade would be the damned enemy soldiers. He thought he was avenging those who were pulled out to join the army, but it wasn't."
"His hatred was ultimately directed at the people he wanted to save the most, including himself."
"Sometimes, the blade is not just aimed at the enemy. The regular army and the revolutionary army are essentially the same. He is just a blade in the hands of the superiors."
"This child will only kill his past self in the future - unless this war comes to a complete stop, no matter which side wins."
As he spoke, he slowly walked into the clothing store.
Hui Shuhang drooped her eyelids, and then the warbler on her shoulder suddenly appeared.
"Your Majesty." She watched Su Ming'an gradually melt into the shadows of the store, and then whispered to the bird on her shoulder:
"... Can we really not trust His Highness just once? If it is His Highness..."
The only response she got was silence.
She suddenly started coughing violently, and after putting away the blood-stained handkerchief, her expression gradually became firm.
