12.14 – He made you like this, right?!

It was nighttime. Murphy was called in as backup for the negotiations. Although she had already given up on Kent and his mother completely, when the child that she had raised knelt in front of her and begged her for the last time, she had no way to harden her heart and drive him away.

This was Murphy’s first time meeting Ivan. She felt a little helpless – if she had met this child at any other time, perhaps she would have liked him. But now, this child had already been destroyed, and even if the poison could be cured, his personality had already become warped.

Murphy’s spiritual power could cover the entire capital, so Kent asked her to take them to the palace.

Although she was very powerful, casting a net and searching through still required a lot of energy. But before Murphy could even begin, the two people they were looking for materialized in front of them.

The atmosphere became rather awkward. Murphy slowly adjusted her posture and resumed her high and mighty stance. She opened her mouth to say, “Since the people you wanted to see have already arrived, I won’t disturb you any longer. I’m leaving.” She was unwilling to be further involved in this matter. If anything happened to her, the royal family would truly be doomed. Murphy had not lived for so many years for nothing, and although her appearance belied her age, her experience was genuine.

Xue Ling spoke lightly, “It’s better if Your Highness Murphy stays. In case something happens here, you can serve as a witness.”

Murphy’s steps paused. Now that Xue Ling had said this, it was obvious that something big would happen tonight.

“I’m not going to meddle in tonight’s business.” Murphy sighed helplessly. “Since it’s like this, could Your… Excellency give the royal family a way out?”

Xue Ling’s voice was lazy. “I was never enemies with the royal family. But I will not let these two people go. Since Your Highness Murphy has said that you will not interfere, then this matter will naturally not involve the royal family.”

After obtaining this promise, Murphy stopped speaking. This world had always been one where strength was respected. In the face of absolute power, the royal family could not say anything more and could only maintain their silence as a way of self-preservation.

Kent gave Murphy an obscure, profound look. He was very clear about Her Highness’s character, and knew that she was always thinking for the sake of the royal family. But no one would have anything good to say about the other side after being so obviously tossed aside.

Ivan glanced hesitatingly at Xue Ling. He didn’t know why, but he now had an inexplicable fear of the other party. “Oliver…” Kent placed an arm around his shoulders and pushed him forward, signaling for him to speak slowly and not be anxious.

Ivan closed his eyes and finally summoned up the courage to say, “Oliver, can we have a proper talk? I know I was wrong before, I shouldn’t have given you that curse and gone against your wishes, but I really have no way to do anything to Kent, you know? I really love him, and I also really love you. Both of you are important parts of my life, and I can’t afford to lose either of you. That’s why I came up with that kind of solution…”

“Oliver, we no longer have a contract between us. You’ve already punished me severely with your departure. I was very heartbroken, too. I can accept that you want to get your revenge on me, but don’t do anything to Kent, okay?” He looked at Xue Ling, and for a moment, there was a flash of honesty in his eyes. “Kent indeed did something unforgivable to your parents, but he didn’t know who they were… He was just a child who wanted to give his mother the best. Since you miss your parents so much, you should be able to understand Kent, right?”

Xue Ling sneered, “He wanted to give his mother the best, so he deliberately planned to kill my parents. That’s true, demonic beasts have no human rights and were born to be hunted by human beings. So there is nothing wrong with me taking his life as an offering to my parents, right?”

“It’s not like that.” Ivan quickly retorted, “Oliver, you’re misunderstanding my words. My meaning is that vengeance has a way of rebounding upon oneself. If you keep trying to get revenge like this, the situation will only snowball from generation to generation.”

“What, are you going to have a son for him?” Xue Ling’s expression was indifferent. “There’s no point giving birth to one. I’ll strangle it once it’s born.”

Ivan’s eyes were red. Why was this person like this? Why were his words all useless? They didn’t have any common viewpoints at all, and he only knew how to fight and kill. How could he have thought that Oliver was just like a gentle elder brother back then!

“Oliver! How can you say that? No matter what, children are innocent! “

“Yes, and I am innocent, too.” Xue Ling was already turning a little impatient. Ivan’s tone and attitude remained unchanged, and he didn’t like those Holy Saint-type words of his at all. An eye for an eye was his method of conduct. “Let’s not talk anymore nonsense. Aren’t you innocent too? Then why did the Queen poison you?”

“This…” Ivan’s own logic came to a stop here. “Maybe the Queen just thought that I wasn’t suitable for Kent. No matter what, she was doing it for Kent’s sake.”

Xue Ling felt that Ivan’s logic was about to move even him. Looking at Ivan’s expression that seemed like he was about to cry, he was really amazed at how much of a Holy Saint he was; he was really the type who would offer themselves up for death just to prove their innocence. “Fine then, I’ll give the two of you a choice.” He pointed at the two of them, and lifted up two fingers.” Tonight, only one of you will survive.”

His tone was so indifferent that it seemed that he was not talking about murder, but about a simple game. “If Kent lives, then you will die of poison. Or, if you kill him, I’ll have my love dispel your poison, and ensure that you can live on safe and healthy for a long time.”
