A faint oppression came from Catherine's body, like the prelude of a storm. Chen Rui suddenly felt a sense of danger in his heart, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
In the < Analytical Eyes >, Catherine's comprehensive strength had actually surpassed the original S + and reached S + +. It seemed that her strength had also improved considerably during this period of time. It was certain that it was due to the black potion that he had given her.
This was equivalent to shooting yourself in the foot.
"Wait a minute, aren't you changing your attitude too fast? I haven't said no yet."
Catherine was startled. She restrained her breath a lot, and she was quite surprised, "Then just now you …"
"Don't you know that there is a word called 'reserved'? I was being a little reserved just now. " Chen Rui ignored the oppression and raised a finger, "I'm officially stating my attitude. No matter Catherine or Christina or any other identity, your husband, husband, man can only be me!"
That firm gaze moved even Catherine. Her Majesty Empress's momentum had completely weakened. This guy added another sentence, "Of course, it's not a problem to give birth to an heir. I can guarantee to complete the mission."
This sentence made Catherine's face a little hot, but she didn't hear the following for a long time. Her beautiful brows frowned slightly, "What else?"
"Also … Uh, it's not a problem to give birth to a few more heirs!"
"That's it?"
"Ah."
Catherine's murderous aura skyrocketed in an instant, and her voice became cold, "Are you fooling me?"
"No, I'm serious. What I'm talking about is just a matter between a man and a woman. Moreover, it's a man and a woman who have a mutual affection and an intimate relationship. It has nothing to do with the empire or interests. This is my answer. " Chen Rui looked straight at Catherine, "I once said that I would come to the Shadow Empire with the power to make the entire Demon Realm tremble to take you away. I also left a message in the Crystal Valley that 'I will definitely come back'. Do you know why I didn't go? Because my current strength is not enough. "
(Not enough.)
(Not enough for you to really let go.)
Catherine suddenly understood his unspoken words tacitly. In her deep black eyes, the calm lake seemed to have a stone thrown into it, and the water rippled slightly.
After a moment of silence, Catherine said, "Don't tell me … you want to unify the Demon Realm to achieve this wish? If so, I can only evaluate it as' stupid as always'. I came to the Dark Moon today not to listen to your so-called oath, so you don't have to talk nonsense. I just want to tell you one thing. Since you are unwilling to join the Shadow Empire, then we are destined to be enemies. "
Chen Rui sighed and made a look as if he had no resistance, "Chen Empire, do it? Of of of eliminating me, the biggest threat to the survival of the empire. If you want to kill me, I don't have any room to resist. "
Catherine looked into his eyes, and her aura suddenly disappeared, "I can't kill you, not only because you are calm, but also because of my intuition. Even with the Dark Shadow Cloak in hand, even though I am only one step away from nationalization. Don't say that you don't know what nationalization is, just like don't doubt a woman's intuition. "
Chen Rui smiled bitterly. A woman's intuition was indeed strong. However, Catherine didn't have any real killing intent from the beginning.
"In fact, Delia had unintentionally revealed her trust in you, and the veiled lady was willing to leave you alone by my side. I had already guessed it. Your strength should have grown to the point where you could at least leave safely in front of me. If I knew it would be like this … I would have left you behind in the Silent Night Wetland, or spared your life. Unfortunately, there is no turning back in life. "
Chen Rui sighed. "You've never really looked back. How do you know there's no turning back? It's like you've never really let it go, so how do you know that you can't? "
"Don't waste your time. Nothing can shake my will. Maybe you're the only man who can move me, but I can't let go of my obsession." After frankly expressing her affection for Chen Rui, Catherine seemed to have unloaded a certain burden. Her eyes were more determined, "If you really want to achieve a stupid wish by conquering the Shadow Empire in the future, even if you can succeed, you will only get my corpse. That's all I have to say. I won't disturb you anymore. You can leave now. For a talent like you, I will leave some leeway. Before we completely fall out, you don't have to worry about the disclosure of your identity or secrets. If you change your mind, I welcome you at any time. So … the next time we meet, it will either be in my palace or on the battlefield. "
Sure enough, she's as persistent as ever.
In order to protect the entire people.
He sat alone on the cold throne.
Chen Rui looked deeply into Catherine's beautiful and moving eyes as if he wanted to engrave her seriousness and determination in his heart.
"To be honest, Catherine, at first, I was more attracted by your beauty, plus that relationship and the man's … possessive desire. But now, I'm really fascinated by you, Your Majesty Empress. Please allow me to play a song for you before we part. "
Catherine wanted to refuse, but her eyes fell on the familiar red piccolo in Chen Rui's hand. She finally nodded.
The melodious sound of the piccolo sounded. To Catherine's surprise, it was not the familiar "Solo Dance under the Moonlight", but another song that she had never heard before. The clear and sad notes lingered in her heart with deep sadness and persistence of not returning.
She closed her eyes and seemed to see the windowsill, the lonely moonlight, the ethereal overlapping phantoms, the passersby in a hurry, the reluctant eyes, and the fading back.
One day, all the melancholy and sadness would no longer exist, and even the soul would be annihilated. However, the mark of the intersection of two hearts and two lives would forever be engraved in that moment like the flashing stars in the sky. Even if it was only for a moment, there would be no regrets.
The music disappeared. Catherine, who was unknowingly immersed in it, slowly opened her eyes. A tear slipped down from the corner of her eye. She touched the moisture on her face in amazement, but she found that she was the only one left in the room.
No matter what the result is, in this life … I won't regret it?
After a long time.
"Damn guy … he didn't even say the name of the song."
Not knowing if it was the influence of the music, this low voice was no longer calm and tranquil.
Bloody Empire, Iron Fist Estate.
Edmund was covered in blood as he stumbled in the woods.
The Iron Fist Castle was breached, and the last power he held was lost.
Just half an hour ago, his personal guards were all killed in order to protect him, and he had become a true loner.
After confirming that there were no pursuers behind him, Edmund leaned against a tree while panting. He supported himself with the long sword in his hand and slowly sat down on the ground. The scene of the city being breached appeared in his mind again. At that time, his troops either died or surrendered. Seeing that the situation was hopeless, he personally killed dozens of his wives and concubines to avoid being humiliated by Aleus and the others. When he was about to commit suicide, he was knocked unconscious by his personal guards and risked his life to save them.
Although he saved his life, the great humiliation and blow of failure was simply unacceptable to the Second Prince of the Bloody Empire.
"Why did the Demon God grant victory to Aleus? Why! What did I do wrong? "
The angry shout echoed in the woods.
"You're not wrong."
A low and indifferent voice rang out.
This familiar voice made Edmund feel like he was struck by lightning, and his shout stopped abruptly.
"Father …"
A figure appeared in front of Edmund. He was not tall, had long black hair, and had an ordinary face. He should be a passerby in any place. However, no one in the Demon Realm dared to ignore this "ordinary" person. Instead, they needed to look up to this person.
Because he was Raizen, the top powerhouse of the Demon Realm, Raizen. Mammon.
"Father, when did you finish training …" Edmund struggled to stand up.
"Just when I learned that you failed." Raizen looked at his son indifferently, "I'm very disappointed in you."
"You've always been disappointed in me!" Edmund's breathing became rapid, and he said desperately, "I'm your real eldest son. When I was a child, both Aleus and Travis called me brother. I'm the real Great Prince of the Bloody Empire! Later … I became the Second Prince. This time, I just want to take back everything that belongs to me. Unfortunately, I was wrong, very wrong! "
Raizen's voice was very calm, "I said that you're not wrong, Aleus is not wrong, even … Travis is not wrong. It's just that you lost. "
Edmund leaned against the tree dejectedly and sighed, "Yes, I lost. I completely lost. I have nothing."
"So I'm disappointed in you because you can't face failure. It was like this in the past, and it's still like this now." Raizen shook his head slowly, "As my son, I can keep your life and spend the rest of your life without lack of food and clothing."
"Captive?" Edmund's face showed a hint of sarcasm. He clenched his fists, "Let me watch the winner step by step to the peak of power and power? The first thing I remember ever since I became sensible was something you said to me. The Empire doesn't need losers. "
Raizen's eyelids slowly drooped, "There is an old saying, the winner is king, and the loser is in the wrong. From ancient times to the present, it has always been so. "
"Yes … the Empire really doesn't need losers." Edmund smiled miserably. His face suddenly showed an abnormal redness, then it gradually turned blue and black. The real source of the mutation was in his clenched fist. There was a poison crystal that was used for suicide. If he didn't use his power to resist, he would die from the poison in 10 seconds.
Raizen quietly watched Edmund, who was bleeding from his seven orifices, and slowly fell down. He sighed softly. The faint sadness that flashed in his eyes was quickly covered by cold solemnity. Suddenly, he punched the sky.
In the dense clouds, a crack was drawn as if a strange eye was opened.
In a flash, the heavy rain poured down, and the blood on Edmund's corpse was washed away by the rain.
In the rain, the lonely emperor's back gradually went away.
