Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Rely on strength to conquer and plunder everything?" Croseid looked at Tenaya as if he had seen something disgusting in the past.

    "Don't you agree with Mr. Closide? You also said that you think that everyone is civilized and violence is just vulgar and barbaric behavior. Do you think that disputes can be resolved by just sitting down and having a good talk with each other?"

    Tenaya laughed softly. Although her tone was very polite, it contained a kind of sarcasm that only Croseid could hear.

    The law of the jungle and the strong are supreme. Only those with strength can seize and conquer everything and do what they like. The weak without strength can only silently endure the fate of being plundered. This is the philosophy of the Black Dragon Clan!  A cruel but undeniable concept, it is a well-known thing among many extraordinary beings and extraordinary forces.

    Closed knew very well what Tenaya was alluding to in a roundabout way, but in the end it was just a hint, and Tenaya had no intention of exposing herself.

    If this is the case, Closide wouldn't mind chatting with Tenaya: "I'm not the kind of naive dreamer who thinks that the world can be changed with so-called love and justice. On the contrary, I am more practical than anyone else.  A realist, and the world today is indeed one where power is paramount. For example, in a free city, a person without money, power, and strength is not worthy of enjoying the taste called 'freedom.'"

    "So, Mr. Closide, are you dissatisfied with what I said just now?" Tenaya asked with a half-smile.

    "If you want to be that child's spiritual mentor, then your encouragement and education are too rigid. You just let the child pursue physical strength, and the so-called power! It's not just about being strong.  The fighting and destructive power that a person possesses within himself.¡±

    "Oh~ I don't know what you have to say, Mr. Closide."

    Croseid looked at Tenaya as if he were looking at an old-fashioned and rotten thing: "Think carefully about the definition of power. What is power? In addition to physical strength and destructive ability, wisdom, knowledge,  Wealth and power are also powers, and even the more general reputation, connections, prestige and appearance are all part of power. If it is only measured by pure physical strength, then all the beasts in the forest are qualified to be kings.  If you want to kill the other party and take away everything the other party has to prove that you are stronger, then humans might as well give up civilization and go back to the forest to live like wild beasts and live according to the laws of nature."

    "But intelligent beings are not disordered beasts, and the world cannot be completely reduced to chaos. Chaos exists, but order is always the mainstream of this world, even for those outstanding people who are known for their treachery and will regard being sentenced and murdered as an honor.  The elves also established a set of laws in their own cities to restrain the people, because they knew that if they completely committed themselves to chaos and disorder, the only outcome would be the destruction of the country. And in this era of order, power is not only  It is only defined as physical strength. In my opinion, wealth and power are also a manifestation of power. For example, I am a businessman and do not have the physique of a warrior, but I can use money to hire powerful warriors to be my guards, and even  I can sit in a safe place without even bothering to move my fingers, leisurely watching those who are more powerful than me fight for my benefit, and afterwards I only need to pay some compensation to pocket most of the benefits.  , this is the power brought by money and power.¡±

    Tenaya burst out laughing after hearing this: "Hahaha! So our Vice President wants our Grand Duke's son to go into business and then come to me to buy my little pet? But I won't sell it.  Here~"

    "I have said that the definition of power is not only the strength of the body, but also the amount of wealth." Croseid shook his head: "If I were that boy, if I wanted to get Aisha, then I would  I will find your weaknesses and attack them. Since you are the highest technical advisor of the empire, then I will also learn this technical knowledge until one day I overwhelm you and replace you. When your existence in the Kalsemmen Empire is dispensable, Hou Ogu  Prince Star will definitely not protect you anymore. If you still refuse at that time, someone will try their best to help me snatch Elsa from your hands and bring it to me without even having to do it myself."

    "Interesting idea, although it may seem fanciful, it is indeed the most practical idea©­©­"

    Tenaya nodded and said noncommittally: "But if my power is unmatchable, then how can you take everything away from me even if you have great wealth and power? With absolute violence,  People can plunder wealth and rights as they please, but more wealth and rights on the earth cannot be exchanged for the same power."

    ¡°There was once someone who was instilling your idea of ??supremacy in power in my ears all day long.Talking about it, tell me that the reason why I suffer suffering and pain is because I have no power. With power, I can defeat him, end the pain and dominate everything he created, but do you know what I think?  "

    Croside came closer to Tenaya and said with a slightly ferocious tone: "I never think that there is an absolutely invincible power in this world. I will let him know that I don't need to blindly pursue physical strength and use money.  and interests, using rights and means, using wisdom and cooperation, I can also create new rules in this world, new rules that are not based on power!"

    Tenaya was slightly startled.

    ¡®A new rule that even extraordinary people have to choose to obey©­¡¯

    Croside¡¯s last words rang directly in Tenaya¡¯s mind. In this way, Tenaya showed his identity, and his identity was not just the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce.

    Some of the guests around looked at the two people competing with each other with a look of fun, some with a negative attitude and a mocking attitude, but at the same time, some frowned or looked suddenly enlightened, as if they had understood something.  Coredil and Elsa on the side looked at Croseid blankly. The two children heard some of the meaning of Croseid's words but could not fully understand them.

    "I©­Hey! Forget it." Tenaya tilted her head: "I originally wanted to refute it, but now it doesn't make any sense. Only time can finally test the truth."

    "Then let's get back to the topic."

    Closide was obviously not interested in continuing on this topic and focused his attention on Elsa, who was still in a daze.

    Everyone who came back to their senses all turned their eyes over in unison.

    "Your name is Elsa?"

    When Croside asked, Elsa nodded subconsciously, then woke up and immediately hid behind Tenaya.

    "You originally lived in the Dawn Forest in the southern region of the Karut Kingdom, and you also had a sister named Airogel, right?"

    When she heard her sister Elogel's name, Elsa, who was originally scared, suddenly raised her head and stared at Croside nervously but expectantly, while Tenaya beside her  He secretly clicked his tongue in his heart. As expected, Croseide was indeed planning to use Elsa's sister as bait.

    "You were caught up by the slave team when you were about to enter the Mist Forest, and you were caught at that time, right?"

    Under the pursuit of Klosed, Aisha nodded.

    After being entrusted by Yalin to retrieve Elsa, Croside did a lot of work for this little elf girl. He learned from Gelkate that this elf escape team was planned by intelligence personnel from the Holy City.  , and the leader should be a female elf mage named Airojiel, and she happens to be Elsa's sister.  But it was another male elf who arrived in the Holy Capital after entering the Forest of Mist. Apparently Elsa's sister was left behind in the Forest of Mist, and the biggest reason for being left behind was the White Dragon King Yalin.

    Closed believed that Elsa's sister must still be alive and stay with the White Dragon King. As for the ancient Dragon King who wanted to be so persistent in retrieving Elsa, I'm afraid he had reached some kind of agreement with her sister. As for  It's not something he can care about. What matters is how to take away the elf girl who is so close now.

    "Aisha, listen carefully. I don't like beating around the bush. Someone asked me to find you. It seems that it's because of your sister Airojiel. Choose me now, and I will take you back to my client and maybe you will be yours."  My sister is waiting for you there. As for the person beside you, you don¡¯t have to worry. There is no way to go back on the promise you made in public, I can take you away right away."

    "Sister©­Have you seen your sister?"

    "Actually, I didn't, but based on some clues provided by my client, I think it was your sister who made the request." Closide's tone was very calm, without the impatient hope that Elsa would believe him.  Rhetoric is just an accurate and detailed explanation of the reasons.

    There is no persuasion, no persuasion, but this most direct and concise expression has credibility.

    Elsa couldn't help but be tempted. It should be said that it was impossible for a girl not to be tempted under such circumstances. She was caught by humans and used as items to be traded back and forth, especially during the period when she was imprisoned in a slave trader's carriage and saw the misery of her compatriots.  The fear of her own fate has already penetrated her heart, and what keeps Elsa's heart from completely collapsing is just the longing to see her sister again.

    And now it feels like a miracle has suddenly appeared, and a road to freedom is unfolding in front of me.

    Sister~

    AishaShe almost couldn't help but stretched out her hand to Croside, but in an instant the girl suddenly stopped abruptly, trembling and turning her head slightly with an inquiring look to see Tenaya who was looking calm beside her.  .

    Tenaya smiled and said nothing. The bait thrown by Croside was indeed heavy enough, but it would not work if the bait was large but could not be seen or touched.

    If it were Elsa who was still locked in a cage as a display before, she might have been eager to reach out, but now after her own 'education', Elsa is no longer so innocent~
