Sigourney's calm declaration silenced her former companions for a long time.
Or confused, or conflicted, or unbelievable.
Sigourney left no room for exposing the part of their hearts that began to expand, filled with more desires and ambitions.
Sigourney was right. They were no longer satisfied with their freedom, but were more eager to reverse their status with the magical creatures and repay them with an eye for an eye and a tooth for everything that the magical creatures had done to humans.
But is there something wrong with this idea?
They were bullied when they had no power, but now that they have the ability to retaliate, are they just going to let it go?
They looked at Sigourney in confusion and anger. Didn't Sigourney have the same idea as them? Why couldn't she understand them?
Sigourney understood them.
It is precisely because of this understanding that he would not say things like “Everyone, put aside your hatred and join me in building a territory where humans and magical creatures can live together.”
He respects everyone's choice, but cannot follow everyone's wishes and stand in absolute opposition to magical creatures.
He also couldn't convey his ideas to everyone just by talking.
He was once human.
Later on, magical creatures.
The inner soul and the outer body together can be said to be both a human and a magical creature.
And now, he was conceived by the laws and was neither a human nor a magical creature.
He experienced two different worlds, two different identities, stood on different standpoints, and watched the hatred and entanglement between humans and magical creatures.
Even so, it still took him a long time to come out of his confusion, self-doubt, and self-loathing, because the people and things he met in Bai Yilufu gradually changed his thoughts and reshaped his understanding of the world and different races.
It is impossible for the members of the Freedom Alliance to replicate his experience, so naturally they cannot understand his thoughts.
Once like-minded companions, inevitably had differences.
No one can convince anyone.
Sigourney had anticipated the situation long ago.
When he confessed his true identity to Ash, Ash asked him, "If you could go back, what would you do?", and he had the answer at that time -
What Ash had said on the horoscope, he wanted to realize it with Ash.
After a long silence.
The elder sighed, his back seemed to be hunched. "Sigourney, let's take a step back. Even if we let go of our hatred for magical creatures, humans and magical creatures are still in opposition. If we want to gain freedom, we have to trample on magical creatures. There is no other choice."
"Yes." Ash looked up at him with clear eyes, "Didn't Sigourney say that? We will build a truly free land, and our territory will protect all our people. Do you believe Sigourney?"
The elder smiled bitterly: "Is there really such a place?"
Ash nodded seriously, "Yes." He smiled again, "It's no wonder you don't believe me now. But it doesn't matter. It won't be long before you will hear news from our territory."
He spoke with such confidence that it was hard to doubt his words.
Sigourney nodded slightly. "Elder, you can stay here temporarily for the time being. After the worlds merge and humans and magical creatures compete with each other again, you can leave here. At that time, you can choose to join the Wizarding Association... Of course, you are also welcome to join our territory."
A girl murmured quietly, "You guys are leaving? Aren't you going to take us with you?"
Sigourney asked back, "Would you like to leave with us?"
No one answered.
The advice Sigourney just gave was their best option.
Today, Red Iluf is still dominated by magical creatures. Once these people go out, they will become conspicuous targets.
It would be better to wait until the worlds merge and human power rises and grows stronger, then join the human side, learn magic, and strengthen yourself.
Sigourney left behind the alchemical tools for communication, and before dawn, she took Ash, Jane and Quentin and left the holy land.
"We're leaving first. We have to find a good place to establish our territory." Ash waved to everyone before leaving, "Wait and hear good news from us!"
He actually wanted to correct the elder's words, saying that humans and magical creatures were not always in opposition. But it was just empty talk, and no one would listen to it, right?
The world is merging, and the status of humans in Red Iluf will also change.
There will always be some people and things, like Mogonans and Sigourney, that change everyone's minds silently, right?
Sigourney didn't say anything else. He had said everything he could without reservation.
After leaving the holy land, their figures landed on Dragon Island.
Ashlar held Signy's hand: "Someone will be willing to come to our territory." He tilted his head slightly, his eyes fell on Jane and Quentin. Hatred may make people blind and extreme, but there are other emotions that can make people sober and soft.
Jane and Quentin felt extremely uncomfortable being looked at by him. One with a cold face and the other with a dark face, they turned and left.
In the entire long night, Sigourney finally smiled for the first time: "There's not even a shadow of the territory, and you're already talking big like this?"
Ash also laughed, "With Sigourney and I together, we can definitely build the territory."
"What territory?"
The voice of the Golden Dragon Lavinia came from the side, "By the way, what did you do in the Holy Land? Did you bring out any good things?"
After failing to break the barrier for a long time, he thought that the barrier might be created by the two "World Hopes"? So he simply returned to Dragon Island and arranged for other dragons to guard outside the holy land.
Sure enough, the two of them showed up. Jin Long thought with great pride that he was indeed very foresighted.
Ash and Sigourney looked at each other...it seemed like a good idea to let the dragons be the first settlers in their territory?
Ash raised the hand that he was holding towards Lavinia: "This."
Lavinia: "What?"
"I brought Sigourney out." Ash said in a serious manner, "She is the key to controlling the world."
Lavinia: “Huh?”
Ash smiled with two shallow dimples and selectively told Lavinia what happened in the holy land.
As Lavinia listened, her expression became extremely exaggerated and rich, as if she was listening to an incredible and bizarre story.
After hearing the last part, his first thought was, "Is this the world's arranged marriage?" He looked between the two of them, and then thought about his own recent bleak situation, and said with even more envy, "Hey, look at you, you can also be happy in an arranged marriage. Why don't I have a partner who was arranged for me?"
Ash was helpless. Was this the point of what he just said?
"The person who can control the world is standing in front of me, can't I be nervous for a moment?" Jin Long coughed lightly and changed his expression to a serious one, "Can you let me see the gift that the world has given you?"
Sigourney raised an eyebrow, as you wish.
The golden dragon immediately disappeared before their eyes.
In an instant, he appeared in the black dragon's cave and plunged into the ocean of treasure with a plop.
The black dragon who was teaching the little dragon growled gloomily: "La, Wei, Ni, Ya! You poor and greedy gold coin thief, what on earth do you want to do with my treasure!"
Lavinia quickly got out of the mountain of gold coins and quickly explained: "It's not me, I don't have it! Zeldorf, calm down! I was thrown here!"
Zeldof didn't believe his lies.
Although Lavinia has always been frivolous, he is the leader of the dragon clan after all, and his strength can still be relied upon at critical moments. How could anyone "throw" him away?
"I'm serious!" Lavinia was also shocked at this time. Although she had been mentally prepared beforehand, when she really felt it, she could understand the other party's unfathomable strength like the abyss.
At that moment, it seemed as if the whole world was standing against him. The laws and elements that he could control with ease on weekdays were terribly unfamiliar and did not respond at all. He had never felt that kind of weakness without the ability to resist, even when he was just born. He did not want to try it again.
It is worthy of being born from the cornerstone of the world.
Lavinia quickly adjusted her mentality. The dragon race was proud of their own bloodline. But it was obvious that the children of the world were one level higher than their bloodline, so there was nothing they could do.
By the time Sigourney and Ash slowly came over, Lavinia had already explained to the Black Dragon until her mouth was dry. With the help of the little dragon, she finally gained a little trust from the Black Dragon.
When she saw Sigourney and the others, Lavinia showed an expression of being saved: "Hurry, come and explain to Zeldorf that you threw me here!" She said loudly that she didn't feel embarrassed at being thrown here and there.
However, Zeldorf ignored the question and asked instead: "Are you sure the worlds can be successfully integrated?" He just heard from Jin Long's explanation that he obviously grasped the key points much better than Jin Long.
Ash: "Yeah. It'll be about a year before the worlds are completely united."
Zeldof let out a long breath, looking much more relaxed. He tilted his head and said to Gray, "In a year, you will be able to meet our parents."
Gray rolled a gem and said "Wow" happily. One year later, he would grow up to be as strong as his brother so that his parents would praise him!
"Ash, the territory you mentioned?" Lavinia tried to find her own sense of existence, "Can you talk to me in detail?"
Once the worlds merge, perhaps another war between races will break out, just like before the worlds separated.
The dragon race suffered severe damage as a result, and their population continued to shrink, almost to the point of extinction.
Even a young and half-baked dragon like him could become the patriarch of the dragon clan.
This time, Lavinia wanted to be smarter and take a firm stand before the dispute started, and never get involved in those complicated and boring struggles again.
Even if they win, there won't be any benefit for the dragon clan, right?
It is better to stand on the right side and enjoy the shade under a big tree. There is no place more comfortable than the territory of the Son of the World, right?
