“Thank you, Big Brother Rhode”
After a few moments, Lilian and Sonia separated froirl wiped her red, teary eyes and thanked Rhode for his help Rhode looked at her in silence, before shaking his head
“It’s nothing This isIn fact, this was indeed his duty at every level But this ti reunion To Lilian, Sonia was the key that allowed her to step out of her enclosed mind But eventually, she still needed Rhode to be responsible in leading the way
“What do you intend to do next, Lilian?”
“…”
Lilian’s s to the vacant expression from before She lowered her head silently After a while, she let out a long sigh
“I don’t care any anymore Just let the Brother Rhode I no longer wish to care about them Since they never needed me, I won’t need theht anyratitude is? In this case, they’re free to do whatever they like”
This was the first time Rhode heard such ‘willful’ words froiven up all hope If not, she wouldn’t have said such things Fortunately, Rhode found a loophole behind her disorganized sentences
“Is this really fine?”
“Big Brother Rhode?”
Lilian felt a little strange when Rhode asked again patiently She lifted her head and looked at hiaze, Rhode stared back
“You’re aware of the situation in the Light Mainland; they are suffering fro this chance to plunder and rob, while the people will suffer agony and eventually die… Is this what you really want?”
“I…”
“Once hu left, Lilian, be it pain or hatred, no ht before death But after they are dead, they will be free fro to let theest punishainst theht is ht?”
“…”
Lilian nodded quietly Of course, she knehat the Country of Light was most afraid of This was also why she faced such a situation It was also due to this reason that she didn’t do anything about it in the past But noas Rhode telling her all this?
“Death isn’t a punishment for them Instead, it is a relief, Lilian”
Rhode stepped forth while staring straight into Lilian’s eyes
“Haven’t you ever considered why such situations happen only in the Country of Light? If the Country of Darkness consists of mostly the obedient dead, ould it be for the Country of Law and dom and Lydia? There were people who provoked her authority, but did she back down? What you’ve experienced isn’t powerlessness Instead, it is that you’re weak Lilian, your weakness boosts their aggression Your backing down left theant Haven’t you ever considered why they are afraid? Because they knew that they don’t deserve everything they’ve done They are afraid that you will snatch everything away from them one day and this is the source of their fear And now, all you need to do is to not free the fear and pay for their greed and foolishness using their lives and the lives of their descendants”
Rhode spoke and extended his arm to Lilian Lilian stared foolishly at his hand Her eyes slowly turned clearer,within
“Are you ready, Lilian? This path is harder to choose than death I won’t talk about the peace and danger of the continent because they areto use this other ht upon you?”
Lilian pondered in silence Then, she extended her arlinting with deter Brother Rhode”
