We are from the future ark

Yinhui also came to Chuxue's side. Looking at the two sisters hugging each other, he rarely showed a sincere smile.

Of course, the smile only lasted for a moment. Soon, Yinhui turned his attention to the other Chuxue, who was standing not far from Chen Qi and was stained with blood.

Having not seen it clearly from the side before, Silver Gray was surprised again when he observed it closely.

This Chuxue...really looks exactly like his sister! Except that her temperament seems more elegant, and her complexion is much lighter, and she seems to be prettier than Enya, everything else is almost exactly the same, as if they were carved from the same mold!

Could it be that his deceased parents actually had a sister when Enya was born? But for some reason, she left Kjerag and wandered to Rhodes Island?

But...her swordsmanship that only SilverAsh can master, the Holy Bell of the Saint, and the power of the God Kalan...what is going on?

Yinhui felt that his mind was in a mess. He then looked around and finally set his sights on Chen Qi who was being hugged tightly by Ifrit.

"Mr. Chen Qi, thank you for Rhodes Island's help. Words cannot express my gratitude. I will talk about my gratitude to Rhodes Island in detail later."

"But now I am a little confused. What is going on?"

SilverAsh knew nothing about the sudden appearance of another Enya, and everything that happened afterwards, although he felt that there should be nothing wrong with this time of climbing up the ladder. This was also in accordance with Rhodes Island's plan, although it had not been discussed with him.

Now that everything has been settled, SilverAsh will naturally have to ask this "ally" with whom he had never discussed tactics.

Fortunately he took advantage of the situation this time. If he does it again next time, won't he have to let Yinhui clean up the mess for him?

In order to avoid becoming an inexplicable scapegoat in the future, and to avoid being used as a gun by Rhodes Island in the future, SilverAsh needs to discuss in detail with his future ally the direct pros and cons of their relationship.

They must be equal, and their plans must be open to each other.

"Well... this plan was actually decided on temporarily. My original intention was just to weaken it, but I didn't expect to raise the Council of Elders."

However, upon hearing this, Chen Qi looked helplessly at Chu Xue who was covered in blood. He saw that the woman gracefully put away her sword, looking indifferent, and shook his head.

This sister Chuxue... everything about her is good, except that she seems to not care about anything after something like this gets out of hand... It's really frustrating.

Fortunately, although this time it caused a big fuss, these are the best results that everyone wants to see.

"Let her tell you about this." Chen Qi still gave the right to speak to Chu Xue. He couldn't speak about this matter. Whether to tell the people now about their identities was entirely up to the parties involved. Chen Qi couldn't force them.

On the other side, Chu Xue, after a moment of contemplation, looked at the three people in front of her who made her feel a little dazed.

"…This is not the place to go into detail, but I can tell you about this matter now."

Chuxue's finger moved slightly, pointing at the self in front of her, and said lightly:

"I'm not your sister, nor am I your substitute. I am you."

"I am you, from the future, more than 20 years later."

"...What?"

Chapter 13: SilverAsh's Order—Big Cleanup!

One day more than 20 years later, in a conference room in Rhodes Island.

"…Have you really decided?"

"I made the decision a long time ago."

In the conference room, Chu Xue looked at Chen Qi who looked embarrassed, smiled faintly, and then continued:

"The war... now that it's over, our hatred and the trauma of this land are also over."

"Shelagh is still there, and the people there are still waiting for God. They also need the guidance of the Saint."

"...Brother, Enxia, ​​Mr. Messenger, Uncle Jiaofeng, they should still want me to accompany them."

"On that holy mountain, they must still want to see me."

After saying that, Chuxue revealed a faint yet a little tired smile and bowed slightly to Chen Qi.

"I am tired, and this continent is also very tired."

"If this is really the fate of this continent, or if the gods really have stopped bestowing blessings on the world..."

"But, I am the Saint of Kalan, and I still have to abide by my duties and complete my unfinished business."

Chu Xue said this and slowly straightened her back. She was still very calm towards Chen Qi, whose complexion had recovered a lot.

Looking at the young man in front of her who ended it all, Hatsuyuki should obviously thank him, but... she just couldn't say the words of gratitude.

After doing so much and ending the war that had lasted for so many years on the continent of Terra, however, the continent was already riddled with holes, and it was too late to make up for the loss.

But he still chose to end the war, even though he knew that this continent had no future.

His decision cost so many lives...

Among them, there are even her sister and her brother.

But... hate him?

Chu Xue gave a bitter smile, but she couldn't hate herself.

Even then, thinking back on it all, Chuxue couldn't tell whether she hated him or not.

...She doesn't know.

At the top of the holy mountain, at the peak of the snow and ice where no outsiders would approach, Chu Xue looked at the flying snow and strong wind for a long time, as if thinking about something.

Behind her, there was a slightly dilapidated stone statue. However, at this moment, the statue looked so dull and lifeless, as if... it had already lost its spirit.

On the other side, not far from Chuxue, the four tombstones seemed to be telling the story of everything that happened around this girl, and also telling that this girl had watched all this happen helplessly.

Now that she has such ability, she has lost the value of doing so.

"elder brother……"

Chuxue's moist lips gently called out this name that was so familiar to her but had not been spoken for so long.

However, at this moment, the person who had once hoped so much that she could call him like that again... could no longer hear it.

Never, ever hear again.

"Brother, sister... Mr. Messenger, Uncle Jiaofeng."

"You guys think... am I really useless?"

I don't even have the strength to hate a person. In fact, I still hope in my heart that he can change everything.

In fact, I still believe that he can do it.

She is really... so stupid.

Finally, with a long sigh, Chu Xue knelt in front of the four tombstones, with her hands and her fingers tightly clasped together. Her snow-white palms were not sure if it was because the temperature was too low or because she was using too much force.

"May the glory of Kalan always shine upon you, and may the mountains of Kalan sleep with you."

"...My elder brother, may you rest in peace in the arms of the god Kalan."

A soft prayer sounded slowly under the heavy snow, but the girl was unable to shed the tear that symbolized cowardice.

On the holy mountain of Kalan, no one would wipe away her tears because of her crying. There was only an extremely cold wind that froze her eyeballs and turned them into cold ice marks.

All she could do was to recite the eulogy again and again, in front of every tombstone, to every person, every day.

May the gods of Nakalan allow them to truly obtain the peace of their dreams.

……

An hour later, in the fortress for trading with Kalan, the atmosphere was a little heavy and a little weird.

"So... that's what's going on."

At some point, Silver Gray had stopped sitting in his chief seat and came to the window where he could see the heavy snow outside. He looked out of the window calmly while listening to the first snow's story.

Hatsuyuki talked a lot about the future Rhodes Island, the time-travel device, the dangers they would face in the future, and the purpose of their coming to this time.

Yinhui also heard a lot. He listened to every word Chuxue said. Some of them he couldn't understand, but more importantly, he heard a lot of things that were said to happen in the "future".

In the future, he was originally on the road of advancing and retreating together with Rhodes Island, but problems arose in the rear. Suddenly, resistance forces appeared in Kjerag, who could have controlled the situation behind him. He had to choose to return to Kjerag to suppress these families and the Council of Elders who suddenly rebelled.

And because of this, he lost the last chance to support Rhodes Island, and this missed opportunity lasted nearly twenty years.

What happened afterwards, Chen Qi returned to Rhodes Island, the gradual development, and the decapitation operation of Noah's team. In order to make up for what he owed, he burned everything he had...

These things were spoken one by one by the future Chuxue's mouth. Yinhui wanted to find an excuse to deny them, but the more he listened, the less excuse he had to deny them.

All of this seemed to be vivid in his mind, as if it was the decision he had made, and it also seemed like... the end of his own choice.

Although he didn't want to believe it, now his heart had to believe it.

There weren't actually many people in the conference room. There were only four of them: Chuxue from the future, Yinhui, Chen Qi, and Ifrit.

Other people from Rhodes Island, such as Huang, did not join the conversation this time. Even SilverAsh's two sisters, Hornpeak and Messenger, were not allowed to listen to this.

It’s not that he didn’t trust them, but Yinhui thought of a concern that was very similar to Chen Qi’s.

If, let Enxia, ​​Enya and the others know all this... surely, will it be good for their future?

...Yinhui didn't know how to describe it. His emotional side told him that he should be open and honest with his relatives, but his rational side told him that he should hide these things.

For some things, the less you know, the better. Only in this way can they nip everything in the bud before it happens.

"…I already understand what to do."

Silver Gray nodded, then turned his gaze to Chen Qi and said in a very serious tone:

"A child from the future who wants to save Terra from the water and fire."

"Today, you are willing to come from the future to the present to save all of us for our future. I deeply admire your righteousness."

"Even though I don't dare to say anything openly for the sake of Terra, I am willing to offer my sword and body even for my family."

As he spoke, Yinhui raised his cane, placed it flat on his hands, and gently bent down towards Chen Qi.

"Here, I, in my name, Ensiodis Shivaash, as well as the chairman of Kalan Trade and the warlord of Shelag, offer our sincerity to Rhodes Island, which you represent."

"From today on, we, the Kalan Trade, and even the entire Kjerag, will use our strength to guide you in the right direction."

"——We accept. Thank you for your generosity, Mr. SilverAsh."

Chen Qi also nodded, and was very pleased with Yinhui's reaction. It should be said that letting Chuxue come here this time was a wise choice.

If it weren't for the first snow, perhaps Yinhui wouldn't have agreed so readily.

Blood is thicker than water... As expected, no matter how strong a man is, he still has a weak spot in this regard.

"But I have some things to take care of now."

Silver Gray straightened up again and said calmly:

"I didn't know before and I could pretend I didn't see it, but this time, the other families actually joined forces with the Council of Elders to oppress our family. This time, I can't just sit there and keep silent."

"Now that the Council of Elders has been destroyed, then... it's their turn."

As he spoke, a cold smile emerged on Yinhui's face. At this moment, he regained his former coldness and ruthlessness as a warlord and chairman. He would never show any leniency to his enemies.

What's more, these guys even caused him so much trouble behind his back in the future. Even because of this, Silver Gray would not give these families a chance to revive.

This time, he must firmly grasp the entire Shelag in his hands!

He might have thought about this in the past, but he didn't dare to do it, and there was no need to unify a religious country.

But now, with reality mature, even if it is just for revenge, SilverAsh wants to take control of the entire Kjerag.

He would not allow a second riot to occur behind him.

“——Jiaofeng.” A cold silver-gray voice was heard suddenly, and the next moment, the door of the conference room was pushed open.

"Master, what are your orders?"

"…Go and inform the other three families that I will host a 'banquet' for them today."

"…What if they don't come?" Jiaofeng also understood the meaning of Yinhui's words, his eyes gradually turned cold, and he asked.

"—they dare not not come."

Silver Gray smiled coldly, tapped his cane lightly with his fingers, and said coldly:

"Whether they come or not will determine whether they live or die."

"Tell them, those who come, live, and those who don't come - die."

Perhaps SilverAsh would not dare to shout such words. Although his power is already sufficient, he is restrained by the troublesome existence of the Council of Elders. Under pressure, SilverAsh cannot act rashly.
