Chapter 195 Changing Relationships
The crown of the One King, the king of all races... Moher is probably the only one in the world who can make something like this.
If someone else were to make this crown, the symbolic meaning might be greater than the practical meaning, for example, taking something from the kings of each race, such as scales, feathers, hair... or gathering things similar to "totems" of each major race and melting them into one.
But Moher is different.
If she wants to forge something that symbolizes the "One King", then this thing must have a corresponding "symbol", something that has the power to control the power of each major race.
This thing should not be of much use to her and Duo Luo.
However... as an authority...
"Well, that's indeed the case."
Moher approved the proposal of the wise king, so she said to her: "Go collect the blood of all major races, I will use all my technology and wisdom to make a supreme crown. This matter must be announced to the world."
...
"Supreme crown? The only king?"
"Yes, respected human king, this is the news from the Demon King. I heard that the Demon King has returned to Butuo City and wants to use the power of the volcano and the world tree there to cast such a crown. The crown will have the power to rule all races."
A smile appeared on Duo Luo's face: "Very good, this is very good. The king of all races, the only king, is not just a human king, nor is he just a demon king, but he truly dominates the world. The demon king dominated the world in the past, but she should not have done such a thing. She likes a variety of races-and for me, doing such a thing now, it is really an honor. Let the races that belong to us also cooperate. This crown will definitely belong to me."
"I will follow your will."
...
"The only crown! He shouldn't agree to such a thing!" Xia Di couldn't help but say after hearing the news, "Such a crown was created. If Moher didn't intend to fight him squarely, but threatened him to commit suicide with the lives of many races in the world, that would be a very bad thing. He was equivalent to handing his handle to Moher!"
"What's the use of saying such a thing? Can you stop him or can you stop Moher? Do you think he will listen to what you say now as before?"
Adeline was surrounded by alchemical "elements". The light spots of those elements kept wandering in her body. She was constantly changing, reorganizing, and screening: "If you are really worried about this happening, succeed quickly, and then stop the devil. I still think it is a wrong decision for you to leave the church. When you are in the church, facing this situation, you can at least let the goddess come to stop it, instead of being powerless like now-if Moher intends to use this to threaten Dora, then do you think this thing can threaten you?"
Xia Di was speechless for a moment.
"If you want to do something, you have to make a decision in a short period of time. If you keep waiting and just give so-called advice, then this thing has already happened, and it is meaningless to talk about right and wrong."
There was not even the slightest wavering on Adeline's face: "You have always been like this, Xia Di, you are always waiting. When you were in the Brave Squad, you waited for him to confess to you, but you didn't wait. After you betrayed him, you waited for him to 'wake up' and 'forgiveness', but you still didn't wait. Now, you expect that if you say no, someone will replace you and go to his side and tell him that this is not okay? Are you kidding me?"
Adeline's words were sharper than Xia Di had imagined: "I heard that the funniest thing is that when he came to fight you, you told him that you were going to marry the Wise King, so if he was still that drunk and did nothing, would you marry the Wise King?"
"The marriage contract with the Wise King is not based on my personal feelings, but from the overall situation of the White Church and the Central Empire of Mankind. It is necessary to do so, right?"
"Oh, so you think this is right? Do you know what I'm thinking now?"
"What?"
"Why did I believe your nonsense before, thinking that your ideas, your actions, and your practices were all correct, all for the purpose of making more people happy, and using this as a goal to make myself move forward, it's ridiculous every time I think about it, Xia Di."
The smile on Adeline's face was quite bitter. She said it was ridiculous, but in fact she was laughing at herself: "You always find some great excuses for yourself. Seeing the state between him and the Demon King, you said you were afraid that he would become the Demon King, you said that there couldn't be another Demon King in the world, and then you and Adriana, who had no idea what was going on in her mind, planned such a betrayal. You said that for the overall interests of mankind and the White Church, you wanted to get engaged to the Wise King, you said that for the great cause of mankind, so you massacred the Lizardman Kingdom - I want to ask now, why are humans the overall situation, why is the White Church the overall situation?"
When she said this, without waiting for Xia Di to speak, she continued: "I know what you are going to say with my toes, because you and I are human beings, so humans are our overall situation, because the White Church is an organization born under the revelation of the great goddess, and it serves the goddess devoutly, so the White Church is the overall situation. Right? But in the final analysis, isn't it the so-called butt determines the head, what position you sit in, what period you consider? Why do you give yourself the name of greatness? Why do you think you are high above, why do you think you are right? It's okay to deceive the people who follow you, but if you believe it yourself, how can you feel that you are not in vain?"
Xia Di never thought that the girl who was still very young in her impression would say such words to herself. At this moment, she finally felt it. Adeline in front of her was no longer the girl who followed them.
Different from herself-she challenged the church, challenged Dora, and challenged the devil with her own will. So that in the end, she was turned into a stone statue.
She is the president of the Alchemist Association. She has long possessed an independent will, and is not lacking in courage and wisdom.
"I went to ask Doro about human alchemy, and he told me that if human alchemy can really reach the realm of the Demon King Moher, then the Demon King must be looking forward to it and even provide help. Because sitting in that position is so lonely, it is such a long wait for something that can make your eyes light up, whether it is a person or something else."
Adeline lowered her eyes: "So, Xia Di, tell me, what are you waiting for, what path do you want to explore? Even if you have walked through your path, what do you want to do through that path, power? Now the two of us can be here , because Doro is looking forward to our results. He is looking forward to us challenging him again - pleasing him is the meaning of our existence now. "
When saying this, Adeline felt her heart throbbing, but she still said: "It's been different for a long time, Xia Di, the relationship between us, our meaning to each other, our value... For Doro, it's been different for a long time!"
Many things have been different for a long time...
Xia Di should know this matter, she should have a clear understanding of it, but perhaps... but perhaps, she still doesn't really look at it this way, and hasn't really considered this matter.
...
Lastina is actually quite powerful recently, and she sometimes feels quite subtle.
Simply put, since she does not represent the Demon King or the Human King, but as a middleman - when the Demon King and the Human King have something to notify each other, they will pass it through Lastina.
This is a very huge authority, and the businessmen in the world began to gather because of this...Lastina almost doesn't need to do anything, a force called "middleman" quietly rises, and this sudden power makes Lastina at a loss.
But she knew very well that this power was not her own power, but the power attached to the Demon King and the Human King. It was because she, Lastina, accidentally and luckily became a member of the Moher Mansion, and then happened to have no deep connection with Moher and Doro, that she could make this choice.
She was not the real power holder.
Therefore, the arrival of such power made him particularly cautious. She knew clearly what kind of heavy task the middleman between the Demon King and the Human King was shouldering, and how fascinating the benefits brought by this power were... But one carelessness would destroy everything. Once
she was careless, or because she lost herself in the middle of passing the message, she felt that she had some weight, then she would be destroyed in an instant. For the Demon King and the Human King, they actually did not need their own power.
They might even have ignored the existence of this person named Lastina. Lastina could be sure that in the eyes of those two people, there might only be each other now.
Others are just scenery. If someone disturbs the relationship between the two people and disturbs their "struggle"... although Lastina personally thinks that "flirting" is more appropriate.
In short, if something goes wrong because of some people in the "middleman" force, then even if all the middlemen are killed, she thinks that the Demon King or the Human King will not spare a glance.
Her understanding of people is still shallow, but she still has some knowledge of this kind of thing.
Therefore, Lastina has been particularly strict recently.
She doesn't want any unexpected situation to happen.
