Chapter 506: 506

Redefine It

“I’m a little tired.”

Kant looked up at the sky and said slowly.

Hong San was shocked.

That was because he could hear the desolation in Kant’s tone. It was a kind of bone-piercing fatigue. His tone carried the intention of retreating from the world. This was something Hong San had not expected.

After all, in his eyes, His Highness was in his youth. He was successful and famous all over the world. It was the time for him to be proud of himself. He should show his skills and realize his ambitions.

Not too long ago, they had been talking all night about their future career and prospects.

During Valentine’s time, Hong San’s awakening had completed his own nirvana, and it had also allowed Kant to verify and realize his own beliefs. They were like two streams that had met at the end of the day and flowed through a rapid and dangerous river bank. They had made a promise that they would give a second chance to the despairing people in this world who also yearned for change but could not change. They would make everyone a real person, not a numb cow or sheep.

But now…

“Has Your Highness encountered any difficult problems recently?”he asked softly.

Kant did not answer. He only exhaled slowly.” Hong San, if you only think about yourself and do not involve any ideals, ambitions, or responsibilities, what do you want to do in the future?”

” What?” Hong San was stunned for a moment, but he still thought about it seriously and replied,” It seems like there’s nothing else to do other than following His Highness.”

Kant glanced at him. I don’t feed people who eat nothing.”

“Ah, that’s a little nerve-racking. I can’t possibly serve people again, right?”

Hong San smiled.” Then I can only save up some money in advance and buy a piece of land. It’s best if it’s near where Your Highness is staying. It’s not too far nor too close. It won’t be so far that I have to walk too far to visit Your Highness. It also can’t be so close that you’ll be annoyed to see me loitering around every day.”

” Other than that, I have to farm and work. I have martial arts and my strength is far beyond ordinary people. My master has also taught me farming and astrology. I can earn food by farming. Not only can I support my family, but I can also send some to Your Highness every now and then. It’s interesting to think about being a happy farmer like this…”

As he said this, his face became more and more delighted, as if he was also happy and looking forward to the scene of his secluded life. However, in the next moment, Hong San finally realized that this was not the main point.

“Your Highness…” the people of Aurora whispered. You want to retire?”

“Want to?” Kant repeated the word and suddenly burst into laughter.” Hong San, think, think is the most beautiful word in the world. Think…” What was I thinking?”

He lowered his head and looked at the ants crawling slowly on the ground.

The little bug knew nothing. It did not know that a war might break out in this area. It did not know that there was a conspiracy that had been planned for a long time hidden deep underground. It did not know that this world was very big. It did not know that there was a country called Goethe. It did not know that there were many extremely powerful creatures that it could not understand living, interacting, flourishing, and active outside its world. Its world was very small.

It knew nothing else.

It didn’t even know that as long as the behemoth from far away stepped on it, its life would immediately end. Even before this happened, it was still doing its own thing, and it didn’t feel anything when death came.

” Sometimes,” Kant said softly,” I even wonder if it would have been better if nothing had happened.”

Hong San didn’t know how to answer, because he vaguely realized that this was related to the deeper secrets that His Highness had. It was something that he couldn’t fully understand, something that His Highness had to bear alone.

Kant looked at his palm. It was said that the lines on it could tell a person’s fate.

” The Goethe people are very grateful to me, and you are very grateful to me. If it weren’t for me, Tina and the others would have been killed by the elven navy in the sea or trapped on the island. Goethe would have fallen, and many people would have died. You would still be rolling in the dust. No one could stop the elves. It was I who changed everything.”

” I used to be glad and proud of this. I carried out justice and walked the right path. I was admired by the world, and glory was bestowed on me. I achieved success and fame. How happy was that?”

” I also made a promise to my deceased friend to protect his country. I also made a promise to the brave warriors who died in battle so that the pitiful commoners would no longer be cattle and sheep waiting to be slaughtered.”

” But Hong San, a promise is just a sentence, just a moment, but fulfilling it takes a long, long time.”

” Ambition will be obliterated by trivial matters, and the Overwatch Society will be disturbed by the present. I once spoke generously to Tina and the others, but now it seems that their worries are more practical. I’m busy in this world, but I’m entangled with more and more things. No matter how beautiful my ideals are, they’re also troubled by greater doubts.”

“What am I here for? How long do I have to do this? At first, I only wanted to end a war. Later, I wanted to protect a country. Now, I actually find that I even have a responsibility for this world. I want to make decisions for the future of millions of people. I want to prepare for a powerful enemy that the world can hardly imagine.”

” The recent events have even made me feel that I’m just a puppet with a spring set. My life from now on has been destined. The sudden changes, twists, pains, sadness, and tribulations that I’ve experienced in the past two years are just a path envisioned by a great power in the unseen world. Everyone has expectations for me, hoping that I’ll become a protector, a savior, and a destroyer…”

Kant smiled bitterly. He shook his head and said,” But sometimes, I want to be an ordinary mortal. I want to live my life according to the rules. I want to finish university, find a job that’s neither good nor bad, marry a wife with normal values, and live a peaceful life…”

His smile slowly became complicated.

” Previously, I was still lamenting that although I had experienced all these hardships, I now possessed the power to control my fate. I used this power to save my father instead of waiting in front of my phone in fear. I used to feel lucky for this, but now, I even f * cking realized…”

Kant reached out his hand and rubbed his face. His smile even turned a little crazy.

” I even f * cking realized that my father’s encounter might be part of the so-called predestined fate. Because of the initial cause and effect, I finally obtained Tacitus, came into contact with the hive, and then saw that guy and heard that damn voice-”

“Do you know how I feel after thinking about this matter?”

“F * ck!”

” I’m thinking, f * ck, how could such a thing happen?”

“I’m thinking, what the fuck will happen in the future? Who will be next?”

“I’m thinking, why me? Was it interesting? Was it interesting? Is it interesting?”

He took a deep breath and then spat it out. Every word came out from between his teeth.

“Ever since the Battle of Danfeng and Lucerne, my heart has been a little empty. On one side, there is a huge emptiness and confusion, and on the other side, there are endless things. Everyone has a request from me, and everyone is urging me to do something. They don’t say anything, but just their gazes make you feel that not doing something is a crime. But I have my own things to do. Who should I f * cking ask for help?”

He panted, smiled, and clenched his fists.

“What’s even more ridiculous is that I don’t know who to blame.”

” I don’t know who to hate, I don’t know who to vent my anger on. I want to fight, but my rationality is stopping me. I want to vent my anger on others, but my morals are stopping me. They tell me that there’s a culprit for every grievance and a debt, but I can’t find my true enemy. Can you understand? Hong San, do you understand?”

He looked at his best friend.

No matter how eloquent Hong San was, he was tongue-tied.

” You definitely don’t understand. I don’t understand either, let alone you.” Kant smiled and sighed.” I don’t know what I’m talking about. I don’t know what I want. I know you want to console me, but you see, it’s useless. Words are the most useless things in this world.”

“Your Highness…”Hong San whispered.

“I just want an answer.” Kant interrupted him.” Can you give me an answer?”

Under his gaze, Hong San looked away and sighed.

“Look, this is the most f * cking part. There’s no solution, no solution.” Kant shook his head and sighed.” Fortunately, in this mortal world, most people just muddle along and go with the flow. The answer is not important. Even without an answer, we can still make do with it.”

“Just like I told you, the word ‘miss’ is the most beautiful word in the world. Of course, it’s also the most useless word in the world…Because thinking is all in a dream. What should be in reality will still be what it is.”

“What else can I do? Since things have come to this, there’s no turning back.”

“That’s it.”

He shrugged his shoulders. He was free and easy, and his smile became bright and clean.

“Thanks, Hong San. I feel much better now.”

“It’s time to do something.”

At this moment, Hong San felt a great sense of unease.

“Your Highness!” he cried out involuntarily.

In the next moment, black light flashed and Kant’s figure disappeared from the Realm Gate.

Hong San grabbed nothing. After a moment of being stupefied, cold sweat immediately dripped down.

“This is bad, this is bad, this is bad!” he cried out bitterly.

A moment later, a beautiful figure dashed out. Stella ran over in a panic with a mechanical sphere in her hands. Seeing that Kant was nowhere to be seen, she exclaimed,” Where did he go?”

“Of course it’s Red Maple Lucerne.” Hong San covered his face and sighed.

The Second Princess ‘reaction was much slower than Hong San’s.” What are you going to do?” she stammered.

” You were the one who told him that the news had been leaked, that Goethe was being attacked by many parties, and that the Grand Duke and Princess Tina were facing the pressure of various countries in Lucerne to buy time for His Highness…”

“What else can I do?” Hong San asked with a bitter face.

Huge frustration and regret filled the minds of the people of Aurora.

He should have discovered it earlier.

It turned out that after the success of the defense of Lucerne and the retreat of the elves, His Highness’s calm heart was not completely at peace, but was temporarily comforted.

The Dimension Portal opened, and Kant returned to Maple Leaf Castle. This was Tina’s and his bedroom.

A refreshing fragrance entered his nose. It was a familiar scent, but she was not there. Kant looked around and strode out of the room. The maids who passed by in the corridor were surprised at first, then bowed.

“Where’s Tina?” Kant asked.

The leading maid bent down and replied,”It seems…” He seems to have gone to discuss matters…”

“Thank you.”

The cold and brief words lingered in his ears. The wind blew, and Kant strode away.

After a while, the maids finally got up, relieved.

He felt that His Highness Kant was very scary today.

It was also very unfamiliar.

In the unofficial audience hall of Maple Leaf Palace, a heated debate was playing out.

” When the Arcane Magic Council first established the Life Department, its philosophy was to transcend politics and countries and join forces with the various races to resist malice and disasters from beyond the world. We request that Goethe share the details of the corrosive energy your country discovered near the Qilin’s Horn in the Green Wave Province to the Arcane Magic Council according to the ancient contract. We also open the borders and allow the Council’s investigation team to enter for evaluation…”

” Esteemed ambassador, the contributions of the Arcane Magic Council have never been forgotten by the countries. Goethe is grateful for the contributions, dedication, and sacrifice of the council. However, please allow me to point out that the Arcane Magic Council transcends politics and countries, but it is not an organization that is above all countries. According to your spirit and ideals, you should avoid becoming a political tool, not act for personal gain, and respect the independence and sovereignty of every civilized country…”

” Before you question the Council, please consider whether Goethe’s behavior was appropriate. There is evidence that your country chose to keep it a secret after discovering the invasion of the mutated decaying energy instead of reporting it to the Council. Is there any ulterior motive behind this? I have to remind you, Princess Tina. History has taught us that every gift from the outer realms has a price!”

” According to the relevant regulations of the Arcane Magic Council, if the country concerned has the ability to resolve the Mutation Invasion alone, there is no need to inform the council or apply for external assistance. They only need to report it afterwards. Goethe’s actions are in line with the rules of the ancient contract. On the contrary, the council rushed to Goethe with unknown information. We are really flattered by the importance they attach to Goethe. However, I am more curious about the fact that Goethe was poisoned by the soldiers during the Battle of Songyue. The whole world was watching from the sidelines. Where was the council that was full of humanity and justice?”

“We are now discussing the problem of the foreign energy! The Arcane Magic Council requests Goethe’s cooperation. Otherwise, for the sake of world peace and tranquility, we reserve the right to take further measures!”

“Is this the Arcane Magic Council that transcends countries and politics? No matter what country or organization it is, if they use the banner of justice to harm Goethe and seek benefits for themselves, we will fight back!”

“Archduke, is Princess Tina’s meaning your meaning? Please think carefully. All the countries have placed a lot of importance on this matter. No matter how strong a Forbidden Mage is, he’s just one person. He…”

“What about me?”

A calm voice sounded from outside the audience hall, and the door was pushed open.

The few people in the audience hall turned around in shock and saw a black-haired yellow-skinned person striding in with a disdainful gaze.

Tina was delighted at first, but her expression changed slightly when she saw Kant’s appearance.

In the audience hall, the archduke sat high up, while Sylmeria stood by his side. Tina stood on the other side, arguing with two fair-skinned mages with deep eyes and high noses. Kant looked over, and in a moment, the expressions of the two Spell Casters changed rapidly.

The confidence of victory was replaced by shock. The Goethe people’s condescending arrogance was retracted in embarrassment. As the envoys of the Arcane Magic Council, they could ignore the princess of a small country who was exhausted and had broken rivers and mountains, but they had to bow down to the peerless master who intimidated the world with forbidden spells.

Because they were mages too.

The two messengers greeted the forerunners and the great achievers with the ancient etiquette of the council.

“Greetings, Sword of Defiance, Dragon of Skyquaking, the great…”

“-from the council?”

Kant was already in front of them.

As expected, he’s from Aurora. Didn’t anyone teach him the etiquette of a spellcaster?

An envoy from the council criticized silently, but he only criticized silently. There was not a hint of displeasure on his face. Instead, he smiled politely. His attitude was completely different from before.

” The council is currently conducting an evaluation of your achievements and rank. I believe that it won’t be long before you receive three badges and an official title. Your Highness Kant, we’re here to…”

“Who told you that?” Kant asked indifferently.

“The council has its own friends, but the problem now…” The emissary choked for a moment before smiling.

” Let me ask you, who told you? What’s your friend’s name?”

“Your Highness, compared to this, I think the safety of the world and Goethe’s future are more important…”

“It’s me now! Him! Mother! I’m asking you! Who was it?

Him! Mother! Yes! I told you!”

Kant cursed, but he did not look like he was cursing at all.

” That’s not important.” The messenger was silent for two seconds this time, then smiled.

“This is very important.”

“Since things have come to this, Your Highness should not ask any more questions, right?”

“Now that things have come to this, I want to know even more.”

“Even if we know that person’s name, it’s meaningless.”

” It’s meaningful. I can kill him, chop him into thousands of pieces, burn him into ashes, and stuff him into your mouth.”

“You can’t do it.”

“Are you going to tell me or not?”

“Please forgive me for refusing. Besides, I don’t have the authority to know this.”

“Then get lost.” Kant pointed at the door and said,” Go back and tell your people that the premise of the conversation with Goethe regarding this matter is based on this. Give me the name, and we can talk. Give me the person, and maybe I’ll let you have a taste of the soup. Otherwise, you won’t even get to eat a mouthful of sh * t.”

The emissary did not expect things to turn out this way. A moment ago, he was engaged in a diplomatic conversation with Princess Goethe, but the next second, Kant had stepped on his face and forced him into a corner.

Even if the other party was a Forbidden Mage, he still felt indignant. freewebnσvel.cøm

” Your Highness Kant, the presidents of the Arcane Magic Council won’t be happy to hear such an answer.”

His tone contained a tactful threat and signal.

” I’ll make a trip to your headquarters to cheer them up,” Kant said calmly.

As soon as he said this, everyone’s expressions changed.

“Forgive me for asking, but is this a threat?” the representative of the council asked coldly.

” If you’re not smart enough to understand what I’m saying, then I can tell you again. Tell me the identity of the leaker, and I’ll consider talking to you. If you want to use force, then I’ll use a forbidden spell to send you and your mother’s ashes into outer space. Do you understand now?”

The other party was already laughing out of anger.

“Good, good, good.” The mage nodded repeatedly.” Your Highness Kant, it seems that the power of the Forbidden Spell has blinded you. Do you know what you are doing? Do you know what the Arcane Magic Council means? Do you know how laughable your actions are to humiliate and desecrate the dignity of the council with your own strength? It’s like…”

“The Clown?”

Kant turned his neck and smiled brightly.

“Do you want to see me redefine The Clown?”
