My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 2029: An Unyielding Goal

Halian Jing’s rugged, bronze face was filled with arrogance: "For twenty years, I, Halian Jing, have dedicated myself to the country with body and soul, diligently pushing the Aus Empire onto the path of becoming a powerful sovereign. In terms of achievements, no one can surpass me. What has the Queen done? She is nothing more than a titular monarch. Such an incapable ruler is inherently a hindrance to the Aus Empire’s ascent to the world’s top power, and should have stepped down long ago, abolishing the monarchy. Even if it means inciting a coup, I am determined to change this nation."

Transforming the Aus Empire into the strongest nation is his ambition and his desire.

He wants to be the founding father of the new Aus Empire, creating history.

Even at the cost of war, he will see it through.

"But Father, you are a hero in the eyes of the people, the esteemed Councilman they revere, so you do not wish to become a traitor in their hearts, the culprit of a bloody civil war," Ling Kong sharply pointed out.

"You understand your father well." Halian Jing was surprised by his keen insight, smiling with a hint of admiration. The heroic complex in his heart indeed made him somewhat persistent. Those who have grown accustomed to being national heroes do not wish to become despised traitors, leading to an inherent sense of imbalance. "Hmph, in terms of capability and achievements, ten queens cannot compare to me. I am confident that in the highest leadership position, I would be better than her, and would make the Aus Empire stronger and more prosperous. So, I’m really unwilling to be regarded as a traitor by the people."

"So, Father, you hold the advantage but are reluctant to make the first move, wanting to wait for the Queen to suppress you and win the people’s sympathy, so you can justifiably take action and dethrone the Queen amidst everyone’s cheers."

"That’s right." Halian Jing did not deny his ambition at all.

But because of this, he lost the initiative, letting the Queen trip him up severely this time, leaving his public support in jeopardy and public opinion extremely unfavorable to him.

"Even if public opinion turns against you, and in the people’s hearts, you transform from the respected and beloved hero to an ambitious villain inciting war, hated and cursed, will you still continue, Father, without regret?" Ling Kong directly asked.

"Yes." Halian Jing’s voice was as clear and strong as steel, without a trace of hesitation.

He gave Ling Kong a deep glance, raising his proud chin. His shrewd and reserved eyes no longer concealed the intense desire like flames burning fiercely.

"No matter how the world sees me, no matter how the people curse me, no matter how history writes me as this villain, I will not change this decision. I must thoroughly change the Aus Empire, sweep away the royal family that hinders the country’s strength, and establish the most powerful nation in the world so that the world will bow to the Aus Empire, becoming a new nation recorded in history!"

Halian Jing’s words were firm and resolute, filled with grand aspirations, and his burning determination reached its peak.

Isn’t the greatest glory in a man’s life to use his own strength to change the country, to change the entire world?

Even if I become a villain, I will never regret it.

Ling Kong watched the flames burning in his eyes, his calm chest stirred, and he felt a faint sense of admiration and reverence. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

No matter the goal, to make a man burn everything for one fight, that wholehearted dedication and passion, regardless of the outcome being success or failure, it makes one’s blood boil, never wasting a lifetime.

So, he was so envious because he could not find a goal that would make him give his all in such a way, feeling life’s aimlessness and emptiness.
