She sighed.

"However, regrettably, the sentiment supporting the Golden Age and Aglaia continues to grow."

"The peace we longed for, and everything we love, will be reduced to ashes of the city and the blood of our citizens..."

“Tell me, Your Excellency.” Katniss looked up, her gaze fixed intently on Naksha’s eyes.

"How much power can you dedicate to our noble citizens so that they may defeat the enemies of the city-state?"

"Heh." Xia was confident at that moment.

"Although it is regrettable, objectively speaking, after the attack on Shuting, I became the actual power holder in the academy."

"To bring down Aglaia, the Senate needs support, and the entire Academy is clearly powerful enough."

"Even if we take a step back, I have long been Shuting's special envoy in Ohmma, and naturally I also retain a crucial vote in the Citizens' Assembly."

After hearing this reason, Katniss nodded slightly.

"On behalf of Kefaller, Ohmma thanks you for your sincerity and valuable advice."

"Now that we've reached this point, you and I should both have a good idea of ​​what benefits we can gain from this debate."

"Let me put it this way: the Senate has always been known for its impartiality, and impartiality is based on sincerity..."

"The Senate has sworn to be forever loyal to all citizens of Ohm, and as for you, Your Excellency, you have already proven your sincerity."

"But that demigod of [Time] truly came to your side, and you even got along well."

Katniss gave her a scrutinizing look.

"How will you prove that you won't betray the invincible people of Ohma at the same time you betrayed Aglaia?"

"Hahahaha...!" Suddenly, laughter came from behind Xia.

Serhis turned his head and saw that Yan Huan was still there.

"After hearing what she said, it seems like I've betrayed the people?"

Yan Huan looked at Serhis.

"Does the Senate represent the people? What kind of logic is that?"

“I don’t understand how Ohmma works…”

Serhis shook his head and glanced at Yan Huan with surprise.

"But you, showing up in such a serious setting, aren't you afraid of causing chaos?"

"It's okay, they can't see me, I'll just eat some melon seeds."

That moment Xia: "..."

Chapter 1348 You Still Don’t Believe Me

“Ridiculous, my loyalty needs no proof.”

"The Senate's demand for proof of loyalty is itself tantamount to betrayal."

“Ha… what do you mean by that?” Katniss’s face darkened.

Just as tensions were about to rise, a person who seemed completely out of place in this world slowly walked in.

"It is my great honor to see the two of you shake hands and make peace in a civilized manner."

"However, please allow me to interrupt for a moment..."

Lai Gushi glanced at Yan Huan, who was sitting on the ground beside him, eating a watermelon, and then said to the two of them:

"In the name of the divine audience, I saw Lady [Kin-ori] Agrea on her way to Dawn Cloud Cliff."

“Oh?” Katniss raised an eyebrow.

"We seem to have a bit too many guests today."

"You're not reconciled, are you, Lady Katniss?" Naksha teased.

"The Senate holds a high position, yet it still has to look up to the Golden Descendants."

Seeing his expression, Katniss couldn't help but laugh in exasperation.

"Heh, why do I feel that you've been holding back? Perhaps I've made a mistake."

"However, I personally am quite happy to see her appear."

Katniss watched him with great interest.

“Tell me, Anaxxramas, now that you are an ally, what should I do if Aglaia comes to me demanding people?”

At that moment, Xia crossed her arms and said calmly:

"Hand me over."

"Then tell her that the Senate only wanted to have a chat with me and had no other intention of offending me."

"However, in doing so, the Senate's authority becomes like a blood-stained papyrus, easily torn. And it has also lost a precious spark of hope..."

"No, there should be two."

“After all…” Xia pondered for a moment.

"At the next citizens' assembly, the girl who was always by death's side will also stand with us."

"By the way, there might be another demigod."

"Oh?" Katniss asked, somewhat puzzled.

How can you make such a assertion?

"Is this important?" Xia asked calmly.

"I have plenty of ways to deal with this. In my opinion, you should focus more on the imminent threat."

“Aglaia, today she can take me away in front of everyone, tomorrow she can abolish the Senate with a wave of her hand.”

"And everything we just discussed... has become a joke."

"Is this what you wanted to see, Lady Katniss?"

Faced with Xia's question, Katniss frowned slightly and said with a forced smile:

"Hehe...I understand."

"I will handle this matter properly."

"However, sir, please remember this."

Katniss's gaze was gloomy.

"Those who deceive the people will surely be punished. I'll turn a blind eye this time, but there will never be a next time..."

"Unless you enjoy torture and are good at contemplating the true meaning of the soul in pain."

Hearing these threatening words, Xia remained completely unmoved at that moment:

"Do you know? This is precisely one of my noblest talents."

"Heh... then let's wait and see." After saying that, Katniss hurriedly went to prepare to deal with Aglaia.

Seeing this, Serhis, who was floating nearby, said to Naksha:

"Ah, you have truly impressed me once again."

"However, isn't what you're asking for a little too little?"

Xia glanced at the woman and asked, "You really want to know what I'm going to do?"

"Haha." Sersis chuckled softly.

"After all, I am the Titan of Reason, born to seek."

"Besides, that person has been sitting nearby the whole time, so I'm not the only 'audience' here."

"..."

Xia glanced at Sersis, then at Lai Gushi in the distance, and at Yan Huan lying next to her playing a single-player game, and fell silent.

"Don't worry, you'll find out soon enough."

Looking in the direction Katniss had left, Xia said in a deep voice:

"I didn't mention it in front of her just now because she can't give me what I really want."

"After all, bystanders see things more clearly..."

"The true master of Dawn Cloud Cliff has always been that [divine audience] who has a panoramic view."

Without lingering, Nashi Xia walked towards Laigushi, who was not far away.

At the same time, Lai Gushi slowly turned around and smiled at Shi Xia, who was walking towards him:

"...As I expected, welcome, Your Excellency."

"Did you know that you could actually skip those trivial debates and directly ask me for the right to have an audience with Cephalos?"

"After all, I have no reason to refuse you, do I?"

“Of course you have no reason,” Xia said calmly. “But Katniss does.”

"Whoever controls the fire of Kefal will control Ohma."

“She is wary of me, so I have to gain her trust.”

"Therefore, the debate just now was absolutely necessary..."

Lai Gushi nodded slightly. "Yes... an undeniable truth."

In response, Serhith couldn't help but joke:

"In my opinion, this boy's elaborate efforts to get close to Cephall are likely a ploy to do something untoward to the Titans."

Even so, are you still willing to let this child go?

“Of course, even so.” Laigushi looked at the long-haired man beside him:
