Chapter 1330: City of White (7)
Rhode had a lot of forethought about Celia’s psychology But honestly, no matter how s for hih it wasn’t completely impossible for her to fall for hi and it wasn’t surprising that she had grown fond of hihtest In fact, he never reciprocated such feelings for her all this while The reason was simple
He knew that there was a conflict between the about it as it involved their standpoint and morals Celia was bound to follow a certain level of principles, fairness, goodness, and justice, which were the eel But Rhode was different He would do whatever he needed to achieve his goal without considering ruthless sacrifices He had also designed several traps to capture the entire family of the innocents in the past
For him, the result was always more important than the means, which was an irreconcilable conflict between hiuy elcomed everyone but, as a matter of fact, those who accepted him truthfully and were accepted by hiard For instance, Anne had a joyful and outgoing character, and to some extent, she and Rhode were the sa the ends and not the means However, Anne’s ‘means’ wasn’t as evil as his And as a mercenary, she was very open-reed with his approach It was the saht have a slight proble a mercenary for some time, Lize tasted the cold and warmth of the world, so she never interfered with his decisions
And Marlene, as a noble descendant, to whom the wisdoift, understood both sides of the story better than anyone Controlling a country and territory was so a family One had to play the role of a hero, while the other had to play the role of a villain Rhode took on responsibility for being the hero, while letting Marlene handle being the villain She ell aware of that but didn’t show much resistance
Meanwhile, one shouldn’t be deceived by Erin’s elegant and quiet appearance and forget that she destroyed half of a city on Earth without blinking an eye This ‘achieve in her eyes That hat Rhode had done was also ‘nothing’ in her perspective
As for Sonia, she had been trained by hi anything out of the ordinary to her, if she could please hiht even help him on her own accord, just like the riots she had caused in Casabianca
As for Canary and Mini Bubble Gum, there was no need to talk about them They looked at the world in the same way as he did and didn’t treat the natives as equal Canary was relatively better off, while Mini Bubble Gum was a bit of a dilettante as everyone knew, so there wasn’t a need to clarify it further That hat Rhode did to the people here wasn’t really htering people
In that respect, Celia had always been out of Rhode’s consideration because there was an irreconcilable conflict between theht be unaware of it, while Lize pretended not to see it However, Celia couldn’t be like Lize and not say a thing Just like the three-way-fight inside her earlier; absolute ‘rationality’ overruled ‘ego’ and ‘instincts’, which hat made Celia remain silent about what Rhode did Meanwhile, she couldn’t pretend that she didn’t see or take things personally like the others did If she were able to be as unconcerned about petty things as Lydia, it would be possible for Rhode and her to talk things out
But the probleelic personality, where she thought about the big things and also wouldn’t let go of the small e it Moreover, it was also inorant as Lapis because the former was his holy sword card spirit She followed him around at all tiht before her eyes So even if he were to appease her with a lie, it wouldn’t last long His lies would be seen through very easily Once she saw through his lies, their relationshi+p would definitely turn out worse than before, which would make the problem even more difficult
That hile Rhode chose to tease Celestina or even say some dirty jokes to shi+ra, he would never mess with Celia After all, Celestina always clapped her hands gracefully and adhtered others, while Celia would sulk in silence That hen he did the killing, he basically didn’t send Celia into battle and would use her as a sword at the very ether with Celia… Even if she illing, he definitely wouldn’t Because as soon as they became a couple, it meant that he had to be responsible for her Rhode was a man of principle, and if he really wanted to have this kind of relationshi+p with Celia, it ain, he wouldn’t be able to do whatever he wanted to do, and he wasn’t a e hiht about her in that aspect And he didn’t expect her to have such thoughts about hiard either After all, what he did was so different from her values that they were nowhere close Rhode counted himself lucky that she didn’t curse him to death in her heart, so hoas it possible that she even liked him?
h, woel, she is still a woman, after all It is so true that women’s hearts are just like a needle at the bottom of the ocean</es And honestly speaking, upon hearing Celia’s confession, Rhode’s head started hurting instantly He didn’t believe that this was an iht that she had been hiding deep within her heart for a long time But it would be harder than hell for his As e himself And his principle was to treat his woree of purity and persistence in this regard, wasn’t in the scope of his choice of woht, the result would definitely not be any better His trip to the et the whether the rest would accept him, If he were to reject her now, this journey to their ht after it started A broken heart wouldn’t feel good for anyone and Celia was no exception Had he known that, he wouldn’t have tried to encourage her ‘ego’ and ‘instincts’ earlier But unfortunately, this world didn’t offer any ret either Since he had already done it, his only choice left was to continue on But now, his biggest question was…
How should he respond?
“You always look at your Big Sister with those lustful eyes! And yet, you rarely look atMaster, but why are you so cold toward me!?”
At that itated She shouted as though she were venting her frustrations At the same time, she waved the sword in her hand even faster andblades at Rhode one after another He was fortunate that he dodged quick enough; otherwise, he would have been hacked several times by her even in the mental world By the way… What exactly was this situation?
“… Hah… Hah… Hah…”
After so unceasingly But even so, the battle angel held the sword in her hands tightly, her two eyes staring at hi at her expression, Rhode couldn’t help but remember a phrase that was rather appropriate for this situation in front of hi even ht, it would be tantamount to failure
Is there any other way to solve this probleht, Rhode’s eyes glinted all of a sudden
He recalled news he read when he was on Earth about a baby that was taken and raised by a she-wolf When people found her again, she had completely turned into a wolf child She couldn’t speak the hue at all, and didn’t kno to co period of education, she finally returned to society and gained huh this matter was al now, for some reason, he saw his oay of correspondence froh he didn’t know if it was reliable and whether it would work, he didn’t have any better ideas now Or perhaps to say, he had to succeed And if he couldn’t, it ard, he had to do his best to ht, Rhode looked up with a feeling of openness, sensed Celia’s aze, and nodded
“I’ve co froht you would actually feel that way aboutI do is acceptable to you”
“That’s right, Master; I really don’t like what you’re doing”
In response to Rhode’s words, Celia was also quick to er confused, but seemed rather shaken instead Or perhaps, the part of Celia that was suppressed by ‘rationality’ was gradually being revealed, venting the frustrations she had been hiding toward him so far
“I don’t like your dastardly tactics, and I don’t want to see you slaughter those innocent civilians I cannot coon, so do you really need to do things using such means? I really, really dislike it, but Master, you keepforward and everyone trusts you I don’t want to say much, but I don’t knohy I fell in love with you, Master When I found out, I was already in love! For that reason, what you did becaivable! Master, whyCelia’s frustrations, Rhode was completely stunned This speech was really upside down and co her question, he suddenly remembered a movie that he watched when he was bored, in which the onist was a vicious onist was an ordinary woonist when she witnessed hi someone Despite that, she inexplicably fell in love with hionist still didn’t like to see hi in hiinally oppressed by the ht revenge Then, the feonist helped hionist abandoned his profession and they lived happily ever after… Frankly, after Rhode watched this ht it was absurd And It was also simply unbelievable that it won an Oscar with a script like this But what he didn’t expect was that he had to face such a script hi to abandon my profession and retreat into the woods? What kind of international joke is this?
“I understand now”
Rhode shuddered at that thought and nodded at Celia It sure looked like he needed to use thishis profession and retreating into the woods!
