Chapter 361 - Closing Ceremony (2/3) (2/2)

“Mr Rhode, I think you’d better not provoke them anymore”

Marlene looked at Rhode hopelessly This was her first tih she knew that he was a self-deterard their taunts… perhaps he was the only one in the whole of the Munn Kingdo this

“Don’t worry”

Rhode understood her concern On the surface, it h both Southerners and Northerners were eternally incompatible; but as a matter of fact, both of them needed each other’s existence The North had abundant produce, plus they were the central hub for all food and ination Both sides were equally disgusted with one another but neither could leave Nothing wasable to leave someone you hate

In the end, the most valuable resource in the world was ht to develop, and compared to Purple Lily or Cole Falcon who had operated for years to build a stable infrastructure for itself, Starlight’s foundation was quite fragile Once soht’s development would easily screech to a halt

But that wasn’t as iht now As they say, when the water is overly clear, there’s no fish But on the flip side, if the water is too polluted, there will no fish either As the situation between the North and the South were too coet rid of the Reforet rid of theatively ihosts, lurking in the shadows and waiting for an opportunity to strike If the King’s Party did not ht would take advantage of the situation to wipe them out But of course the Reformist Party also had its own concerns, so they didn’t dare to defame their rivals publically

(ED: Oh the irony)

One had to give it to Lydia; her y, the Reforh they were going through terminal cancer, they chose to live on and spendthe inevitable If they were sensible, perhaps they would request for euthanasia, alas it was a pity that coame, when the terminally-ill Reformist Party realized that their days were nu’s Party But in the end, they were unsuccessful and were eventually double-crossed by the Country of Light

Similarly, Rhode drew a distinct line with the South While this action created a few eneroup People who understood what eneht had to face and still decided to join were the ones worth trusting Furtherth was no doubt beneficial

Coht’s foundation was like a speck of dirt not worthabout Because of this, Rhode had no choice but to reht didn’t have the power to deter those who they mistrusted The only as to use external pressure to force theoals or oals easier to develop

If those furious people knew that their actions were actually helping Rhode, perhaps they would’ve comle suppressed the bustling noises in the Main Square Then, a graceful figure appeared at the top of the platform

The entireon the highest platform before them, was the ruler of the country, Lydia Paphield Mila Frandrica

Rhode lifted his head and squinted at the beautiful figure glowing against the sun rays

Her golden hair shi+entle wind A beautiful, slender body coant white dress There was no royal crown on top of her head, but a bright halo glinted in its place Behind her, were six wings glea with holiness A syel

She hadn’t changed a bit

Rhode lamented from the bottom of his heart as he reminisced the painful memories

Lydia looked the same as that day
