"What do you mean?"
Delius quickly followed him, and De Levin let out a small scream and followed his brother.
"Literally. Do you think that if I had a choice, I would get angry when I saw you Noxus people and kill all of you at all costs?"
Li Ke's words made Delius puzzled. There was no doubt that he had a good impression of Noxus. However, judging from Li Ke's appearance, it was impossible for him to have a good impression of Noxus. Therefore, he was also interested in Li Ke's experience.
"But this …"
However, out of habit, he subconsciously protected Noxus's will.
"But this is not the reason why you betrayed Noxus, right?"
Li Ke turned his head and looked at Delius.
"Then do you think that forcing a person to kill unarmed women and children is in line with Noxus's will? Because of his own selfishness, he led soldiers to encircle a tribe without warriors. Then, he used their wives and children as a threat to make them fight with me, a gladiator. After they died, he killed their wives and children. Is it in line with Noxus's will? Or … did he rape the women and rob the soldiers who delivered the supplies, and then say that they were killed by Freldrod? Is this also Noxus's will? "
However, Li Ke did not expect that although Delius showed a hesitant expression, he slowly nodded his head.
"Yes."
His words made Li Ke's hand touch the hilt of his sword, but he put it down in the end.
"Why?"
Delius did not realize that his life was in Li Ke's hands at all. He knew that even if he waved his battle axe, he could not survive Li Ke's sword because this former gladiator was not an ordinary person at all. His movements were more agile and faster than any scout he had ever seen. At the same time, he also had a strange strength that surpassed his own. And in terms of technique …
He would not doubt a warrior who had fought his way through the Gladiator Arena.
"Because he defended that fortress for ten years before you rebelled! Even if he wasn't there, his soldiers would still be able to guard the gates of the Empire! For this honor, he even killed his own son who ran away! He resolutely and proudly completed his mission, the mission given to him by the Empire! "
However, he still answered Li Ke firmly and gave him an answer that Li Ke would never want to hear.
"… So, because he completed his mission, no matter what he did, as long as he didn't betray Noxus, he's a qualified Noxus people? With the will of Noxus? "
However, Li Ke saw the conflict between him and Delius. They had completely different views on what was most important. It was no wonder that his way of thinking made him a hero to the Noxus people and a demon, or even a nightmare, to the people of other countries.
"Yes, the mission is above everything!"
Teleus did not hesitate to acknowledge the principles that he agreed with.
"So, what is your mission? Delius, is it to serve the Empire? Does that mean that you won't carry out a mission that will weaken the Empire? "
This question made Delius hesitate for a moment. If it were any other occasion, he would never answer such a question. However, in this situation, he could only answer helplessly.
"… If it will really harm the Empire, then I won't."
"Then, you want your empire to be rich and powerful so that more people can live according to their own wishes. Also, you want to show off your strength in places where you're strong, while those who aren't strong can become strong in this environment. You want even more weak people to become strong. That's why you want to make Noxus strong. Or are you just looking for a place where you can bully the weak and slaughter others to gain glory? "
Delius knew that he had fallen into Li Ke's trap, but he knew that he couldn't not answer this question because what Li Ke said was what he had always insisted on. In this chaotic world, those who weren't strong would be bullied. Even their children couldn't guarantee a stable childhood, let alone become strong under the protection of their parents.
Weak people couldn't even protect themselves, let alone their children. They could only let their children become orphans with a very low survival rate and then suffer all kinds of hardships. Then, they would die in humiliation and abuse under the ridicule of everyone.
This was what he had experienced and what he swore that he wouldn't let his children experience. The reason why he was so loyal to Noxus was that in his opinion, Noxus was the only country that could remain strong forever. In Noxus, people would never have to worry about their families being despised and ostracized after they died bravely in battle. They would also be tortured by poverty and hunger. As long as the weak were willing to become strong, there would be a way for them to become strong. The children whose parents died in battle wouldn't hate their parents from a young age. They would hate their parents for giving birth to them and hate their parents for letting them live in this world alone. Because they would enjoy the glory and wealth that their parents brought them. They would also be supported by Noxus, allowing them to live through their weak years, nurturing them and making them strong enough to survive in this world!
This was a country where as long as one had courage, as long as one was willing to work hard, as long as one was willing to work hard, they could obtain happiness!
And how could a country with such characteristics decline like other countries? He would only become stronger and stronger, and his people would only become happier! Stronger and stronger! Able to live safely in this dangerous world forever!
And so, he nodded slightly and acknowledged Li Ke's words.
"… The former is the mission of all Noxus people, not my wish alone."
Li Ke smiled.
"Then it seems that there is still a possibility for us to talk."
After saying that, Li Ke mounted his horse. Aichy pulled the saddle and mounted her horse as well. She sat behind Li Ke and held her reins.
"… Can we switch?"
Li Ke suddenly felt awkward. He turned his head and whispered to Aichy. However, Aichy shook her head slightly.
"No, because I am the War Mother."
On the other hand, Teleus hesitated for a moment, but he still accepted the reins handed to him by the Freljord and mounted the horse.
He wanted to know what Li Ke wanted to do.
De Levin sat on another person's horse. Together with his elder brother, they headed to Aichy's tribe.
After they left, in another world that ordinary humans couldn't see, the Wolf Spirit stood there in a daze for a long time. After they left, he looked at the Goat Spirit who was also standing there in a daze.
"How many times has this happened?"
That was what he said.
"Shut up."
This was the Goat Spirit's answer.
