Ark, they don't revolve around you

"Why?" Margaret smiled a little uncomfortably, "I thought you were still blaming me."

"Complain? Oh, you mean you haven't sent me any news in several years?"

Zhuang Ning was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, "At this point, I don't mind it anymore. If I really cared, I would have too many people to target."

"Don't you want to ask why?"

"Why? You are just trying to avoid suspicion. You are a public figure, and so am I. How could your reasons be any different from those of Huijie and Vina?"

Zhuang Ning spread his hands, as if helpless, "Forget about that."

Knight Yao was stunned, not understanding the meaning of these words.

Along with the issue of stance, there are indeed many people who decided to distance themselves from Zhuang Ning for political reasons.

Because when they are in their position, they can no longer just think about themselves.

But does this person really not care? There is no exaggeration, no hesitation.

"Then why are you looking for me?!"

"I'm here to invite you to rejoin Rhodes Island." Zhuang Ning did not show any impatience but smiled softly.

"......?" Margaret had a puzzled expression.

"Is this hard to understand? I have a good memory with you, and I envy you for defeating the enemy on the battlefield."

Zhuang Ning blinked. "Besides, you are Casimir's role model. After I make a judgment, someone has to carry out my will. You are a good candidate."

"Of course, if you refuse, I have no choice but to find someone else. Although it is a bit troublesome, it is not impossible." Zhuang Ning shrugged.

"That's it?"

"What else?" Zhuang Ning's eyes became more and more strange, "What other reasons could I have?"

Without waiting for a response, he laughed, "You are definitely very important in Casimir, but you are not irreplaceable. It's just that if you refuse, I will have to look for someone else, which will be a bit troublesome."

Margaret lowered her head, trembling all over: "You have really changed."

"Don't mention the same old stuff, Knight Yao, answer me." Zhuang Ning paused.

A strange aura surged from him, and he took one step after another forward until he came to the side of Knight Yao.

Looking down from above, the devil asked softly, "Are you willing to listen to me?"

Margaret shuddered, an inexplicable chill rising to her fingertips: "Are you asking me to surrender?"

"You can understand that."

"Your trial will result in the death of many people, right?" Margaret asked quietly.

"Those who desire death will die, that's all." Zhuang Ning smiled.

At this moment, the world was finally quiet, with only the rustling sound of rain.

It was raining heavily.

Knight Yao closed his eyes, his mind was shaken, and the words of the Grand Knight Commander rang in his ears.

She said that for Casimir's sake, she hoped she could calm Zhuang Ning down, or even surrender verbally and physically.

That is peace.

But the old man was wrong after all, and Knight Yao could not admit defeat, she could only move forward forever!

"I reject."

Zhuang Ning was not surprised: "What's the reason?"

"I don't agree with your judgment." Knight Yao stood in front of Zhuang Ning with his lance and said quietly: "You really have lost something. This is my fault. I'm sorry, Doctor."

"What have I lost?" Zhuang Ning raised his eyebrows.

"You have lost love." The Knight of Glory gritted his teeth.

When Zhuang Ning heard this, he was stunned for a moment: "Love?"

He seemed to feel ridiculous and even forgot to laugh, and repeated: "Love?"

"Yes, you must be disappointed with something, just like I was before." Knight Yao took a big step back.

Not long ago, she had been fighting with those Qiexue and was covered with wounds, but she would never fall down.

I have to keep fighting, she thought, and she felt relieved.

"I am a knight, and my knightly duty requires me to stand here and face the enemies of Casimir."

Zhuang Ning was silent for a moment. During the long silence, the corners of his mouth curled up as if mocking.

"Why... should I fight you?" he asked as if confused.

"I'm not very good at talking, I hope my gun can make you understand my thoughts."

"I want you to know that there are still people who love you." Margaret whispered, "So I must correct your mistakes."

That's how it should be. Why bother talking? Isn't it always through weapons that knights communicate with each other?

"I'm going to stop you," she said.

"Stop me." Zhuang Ning chewed on this reason and couldn't help laughing.

However, there was no smile in his eyes, but rather a cold look: "That's good."

"——But you are not worthy of it as you are now."

Collapse under heavy pressure.

It was as if several heavy mountains were pressing down, and the terrifying pressure was oppressing the bones of the Knight of Glory.

Forcing her to bow her head, bend her knees, and kneel down little by little.

"You have no chance of fighting back in front of me, Knight Yao."

The faint voice came, "You are too weak."

Cold sweat fell and wet the ground.

At this point, Lin Guang had to hold on tightly with both hands to avoid looking too embarrassed.

And this is just a trivial action for the devil.

"Although it sounds helpless, you are not qualified to fight me."

"Besides, you are a little mistaken. It's not that I don't understand love. I understand it very well."

Zhuang Ning said calmly, "Otherwise, how could I forgive those people?"

"As long as you are willing to listen to me, as long as you are willing to follow my command, I will forgive anyone, even if they are someone like The Shining who almost killed me."

"Lin Guang, doesn't this prove that I actually understand love very well?"

The gravity increased again, and Lin Guang's armor made a strange sound and cracked into tiny lines.

"And what else do you want to convey to me?"

"Tell me your theory? That's all very well and full of fantasy, but it doesn't make any sense to me."

"Now, let me tell you, there is nothing you can do, Knight of Glory."

"——You can't illuminate the earth."

The night is deep.

Margaret bowed her head to the ground.

She could no longer see Zhuang Ning's face, but she could hear the coldness and indifference in his voice.

And the funny thing is, this cannot be refuted.

She was too arrogant. Yes, that person was waiting for her, but this waiting was just a casual act.

It was like I was just having fun and I didn't really take it seriously.

Now that the Demon King already knows the answer, there is no need to wait. Only I am still so stupid and self-righteous that I think I can fight him!

The results were completely different.

The sound of rain mixed with the sound of footsteps, and Zhuang Ning turned around calmly:

"The love you speak of has no value."

"All I want is obedience and the ability to follow my instructions. You can't do that, Knight Yao."

The pressure suddenly disappeared, and he seemed to be bored, whispering softly, "Is this what knights are like?"

The gravity dissipated, but Knight Yao still did not get up.

At that moment, she did feel an inexplicable coldness from Zhuang Ning.

It was a kind of absolute indifference, looking at the earth and not taking everything into consideration.

All the things in the past came to mind.

The Zhuang Ning who would choose to be gentle to her is actually right in front of her. Just as he said, as long as she chooses to surrender, he can show his gentleness.

For a moment, Brilliant Knight admitted that he wavered.

So she didn't dare to raise her head, nor did she dare to look at the so-called doctor.

The Grand Knight asked her why she didn't know about the Doctor's change, and Platinum laughed at her cowardice.

It took her so much determination to come here.

The result is like a joke...

There was the sound of footsteps.

Zhuang Ning gradually moved away, but after learning of his choice, he was not too disappointed.

Just let him go like this?

At this moment, Knight Yao suddenly gritted his teeth, supported his knees with his hands, and climbed up.

Bai Jin said she had never understood the Doctor, and she couldn't refute it.

There is no need to refute. Putting aside those ridiculous thoughts, I am just a knight.

Since you are a knight, even if you know there is an abyss ahead, you must cross it, right?
