The Ultimate Fire Master of Avatar

Chapter 28 Thoughts

"Hmm, what's wrong?"

Ailo noticed that Kahn's gaze towards him suddenly seemed a little strange.

"It's nothing."

Kahn dared not voice his inner thoughts, for fear of getting beaten up.

He continued, following up on Ai Luo's earlier question:

"I don't really care, as long as peace can be achieved as soon as possible. But objectively speaking, neither the Earth Power Kingdom nor the Water Good Clan seems like they can win. It's only a matter of time before the Fire Blaze Kingdom wins."

For him, who had transmigrated from another era, there was no sense of identity or belonging to the Fire Kingdom, let alone the Earth Kingdom and the Water People, which currently only existed in books.

Although aggression was absolutely wrong, it was none of his business, and it was none of his concern.

Moreover, as he said, although the resistance from the Earth Power Kingdom and the Water Good Clan has always been strong, they can only resist and cannot even retaliate. And now, even their resistance is becoming weaker and weaker in the face of the Fire Blaze Kingdom.

Although the Tu Qiang Kingdom and the Shui Shan Clan recovered a considerable amount of lost territory during the two upheavals in the Huo Lie Kingdom, it only prolonged the war, and there was still no hope of any change in the outcome.

For example, just looking at naval equipment, the warships of the Water People and the Earth Power are still wooden sailing ships, but the Fire Kingdom has long since replaced them all with steel steamships!

How can you fight back against such overwhelming technological superiority? With your head?

It was only because the world possessed the miraculous ability of magic control that the two races were able to barely resist by virtue of their terrain advantage; in other aspects, they were simply no match.

Thinking this, Kahn glanced at Airo again.

As the recently retired Grand General of the Fire Kingdom, Airo certainly couldn't be unaware of these things, so it goes without saying—

Aren't you the one who's having the most fun?!

Ailo was unaware of Kahn's inner turmoil, but he fell silent after hearing Kahn's words.

He certainly couldn't be unaware of these things, and he understood even more clearly that what Kahn said was indeed true, which made him even more tormented.

From the moment he was born until now, his experiences, his knowledge, what he has seen and heard, and his ethical and moral values ​​have determined that he is destined to pay the price and struggle for this in his life.

Thinking of this, Airo glanced at Kahn, his eyes filled with emotion.

No matter how smart Kahn is, or how much he speaks and thinks like an adult, he is still a child. He has never seen, experienced, or felt the suffering in this world. He is innocent and ignorant, which is why he has such simple thoughts.

That's truly enviable.

But speaking of which, has the patriotic education in the Kingdom of Fire recently become so poor that a nine-year-old child doesn't care about his country at all?

Ailo glanced at Kahn again, feeling that his assessment might be somewhat biased.

Perhaps the child himself is a bit odd, so we can't entirely blame the school.

Thinking this, Airo couldn't help but rub Kahn's head.

What will this child bring to the Fire Kingdom? And where will he lead it? He felt a sense of anticipation.

"Could you please stop touching my head?"

Kahn slapped away Ailo's mischievous hand again and glared at him.

What if you keep styling his hair like this and make him bald?!

"Hahahahaha!"

Airo burst into laughter again.

Although Kahn didn't know Elo's opinion of him, even if he did this time, he probably wouldn't be able to refute it.

From Ai Luo's perspective, he is indeed still a child, and he would rather continue to be the child Ai Luo speaks of for the rest of his life.

But that's probably impossible.

Oh, what a chaotic world.

As Ao Zai looked at the various reports at hand, he kept thinking about all sorts of plans.

The order to resume the offensive was naturally driven by his eagerness to conquer the world, but its significance goes far beyond that.

The reasons for launching this attack were threefold: first, to continue conquering the world and fulfill his and his predecessors' ambitions; second, as he had just ascended the throne as the new emperor, he needed to demonstrate his abilities to reassure the people; and third, to eliminate hidden dangers within the army.

As the former crown prince and former general of the Fire Blaze Kingdom, Ai Luo had cultivated his influence in the army for many years and was extremely prestigious. How could he not make plans?

Although he had secretly purged many of the traitors who supported Elo and opposed him during this period, it was impossible for all the remaining silent people to be pragmatic.

A cold smile appeared on Ao Zai's face.

Anyway, just to be on the safe side, it would be better if all of Airo's old subordinates died.

However, he couldn't personally deal with those who didn't openly oppose him, and it would be a thankless and exhausting task, so why bother?

Since they are soldiers, let them die peacefully on the battlefield, making their final contribution to the great cause of the Fire Nation's unification of the world. He will be magnanimous and forgive them for what they have done, regarding them as good soldiers who sacrificed themselves for their country.

This is also a gradual process, because while sending away Elo's old troops, he also needs to cultivate a new batch of generals to replace them, so it cannot be accomplished overnight.

In any case, conquering the world is his ultimate goal, and all other means serve this purpose. As long as he can achieve this goal smoothly, a little compromise and tolerance are acceptable.

His biggest compromise was to allow his subordinates to die more slowly before they could rise to power.

After finishing his work, Ao Zai closed his eyes to rest for a while before starting to think about another matter: his current lack of top-tier combat power, including but not limited to the lack of Fire Masters.

Originally, Fire Masters were extremely rare, with only Ai Luo and another general, Zheng Zheng, currently holding the title. This is because the assessment of a Fire Master is not only based on combat strength but also requires a deep understanding of the art of fire control itself.

He doesn't have time to understand that kind of thing.

If we disregard the title of Fire Master and only consider his combat strength, he is not bad either, but he cannot personally take to the field.

However, needless to say, Ai Luo remained silent in this team, but judging from his past experiences, this guy probably wasn't on his side either.

In other words, he has absolutely no top-tier power at his disposal.

At present, Azura may be the only one he can rely on.

Azura's talent, personality, and intelligence satisfied him in every aspect. Moreover, with Azura's talent, even if he couldn't become a Fire Master, his combat strength wouldn't be much different.

Most importantly, as his daughter whom he had raised himself, he was confident and had the means to ensure that Azura would never betray him.

Indeed, only those you have personally trained and know well can be trusted and completely controlled.

However, it's not easy to find people with potential like Azura, and he doesn't have the time or energy to spend so much time collecting and training them.

However, Aozai was not in a hurry, after all, the time for "that" to descend again was fast approaching.

anyway.

A genius like Azura... He had recently heard some news about Kahn, the commoner boy who was by Aiolos's side.

"Father, you wanted to see me?"

Just then, Azura arrived.

Ao Zai opened his eyes and looked at Azura casually, saying:

"My dear daughter, I've heard that the boy named Kahn seems to have a good talent for fire manipulation, and he's even been taken on as a disciple by Airo."

"Are you aware of these things?"
