Black curls sandwiched with white.
Broad shoulders, tall figure.
A face as sharp as a knife and an axe, with deep eyes.
The man in front of me has all the qualities a tough man should have.
But those are not important, because there is such a person who makes people involuntarily ignore his appearance, age, and even gender.
The "Golden Rakshasa" Alleria is, and the "Iron-Blooded Prime Minister" Osborne is even more so. They are even better than the former. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are number one in the empire or even the world.
After all, having two lives, the first emperor and the second prime minister, sounds like a fantasy. If they hadn't seen the scene and memory of the spiritual cave in person, even if Osborne told it personally, no one would believe it.
Rean's experience of "going back to the past" is already mysterious enough, and it still pales in comparison to Osborn's. Counting the blessings of the super-standard "Servant Summoning" and "Illusionary God", it is equal.
At this moment, Li En thought of a lot.
When I was young, I heard various rumors with mixed reviews.
When I was a student, I felt the monster-like oppression for the first time. That is a completely different sense of existence from the Sword Immortal, which he has always considered to be the "strongest".
During the witch's broadcast, she was shocked when she suddenly encountered an assassination.
Huang Mo City reappeared, and there was a sense of blankness like a bolt from the blue - "Why, why are you still alive?"
The great anger that followed - "All the efforts and efforts Crowe has made, is his life in vain?"
And the verge of collapse when the truth is revealed - "Long time no see, my child."
Since then, he has been living in confusion and pain. No matter how well he behaves, only he knows the deepest torture in his heart.
Until Midsummer two years later, when the man "teared off" all the disguises, he could not come out. Instead, he fell deeper and deeper into the darkness because of Miriam's sacrifice.
If his companions hadn't abandoned him, never given up, and saved him at all costs, I would have been sinking into darkness, as confused as a walking zombie, and missed the opportunity to know all the truth.
It turns out that this is all a game.
Controlled by Yin Xiu Mag's ambition and desire, a game that uses all living beings as pawns.
It turns out that the man who has always been regarded as the mastermind behind the scenes has never succumbed to the darkness. He has always been enduring it.
While resisting the erosion of the curse with an iron will, he pretended to cooperate with Yin Xiumai, just waiting for an opportunity to completely take the curse away from Semlia.
As long as this goal can be achieved, everything is secondary and expendable.
Miriam, Altina, Rean, the Anor royal family, the soldiers and people of the empire, plus the affected neighboring countries.
He and his companions could not agree that such a thing was happening, so they risked their lives and future to challenge this man who planned to bear all the darkness, his biological father, the greatest emperor of the empire, and the strongest man of ZTE.
When the silver sword edge passed through Yin Xiu Mag's body, and when the shining knife cut through the darkness, the man who had always been as frozen as a mountain finally showed a little relief, a little relief, and more unbearability.
Probably because he couldn’t bear to have this cruel burden fall on his children’s shoulders.
After all, keeping this child away from the whirlpool and away from all this is his deepest and first hope.
Suddenly, Li En returned to the starting point of his memory.
On that windy and snowy night, the steely man put down his five-year-old child and his last tenderness.
"Rean, you must grow up healthy...goddess...please let this child -"
The past events are vivid in my mind.
The words are still in my ears.
There are mixed feelings in my heart.
Although it was just a glance, it seemed like twenty years of life had passed.
Without deliberately thinking about it, Li En stood up and bowed his head in greeting.
He would never do this before starting over.
Because he had anger, resentment, and injustice in his heart, but the person opposite him never thought of resolving the frustration in his son's heart.
This pair of father and son, who are very similar in their bones, have been in a stalemate and confrontation because of this stubbornness engraved in their souls, as if whoever bows his head first will really lose.
Not only did he lose to the opponent, but he also lost to himself.
But now, Rean has understood all the cause and effect, and knows Osborne's original intention. In fact, it was not that he was unaware of it before, but due to the disapproval caused by Crowe's death, he never thought about it in this aspect. You won't engage in meaningless battles of will.
Affected by him, the students of the new Class VII also stood up one after another. Even if Yuna, Kurt, Ash and others did not want to, with the instructor starting and with the responses of Artina and Miao Jie, they also It’s not good to continue to sit shamelessly.
Osborne seemed not to have expected this, and looked at Li En with surprise for a moment: "You... seem to have changed."
"Because people will grow, Your Excellency." Rean's expression was calm.
Osborne nodded and said with emotion: "Indeed, you are only twenty years old, and you are still in the golden period of growth... The last time we met was at the investiture ceremony at the end of last year. You are not yet an adult. I didn't expect that you are not yet an adult. A few months have passed and you are already a 'Sword Master'."
"thanks to you."
I didn't do anything - Osborne wanted to say this, but when he saw Li En's clear eyes, he quickly realized that he was overthinking it. He nodded twice and said, "Let's just treat it like this."
Rean was able to become a swordsman so quickly, and Osborn was indeed "indispensable" for his contribution.
Although most of what he did was to create obstacles and troubles for Li En, it was precisely because of these pressures that Li En had the motivation to grow. Otherwise, with his easy-going personality, there is no doubt whether he would become a disciple of the Sword Immortal. Not to mention becoming the youngest sword master.
Those who cannot defeat you will eventually make you stronger - both father and son have a profound understanding of this truth.
There is a tacit understanding without having to say it out loud. Even if this tacit understanding seems weird to others, it makes Claire happy.
"Rean...Your Excellency..." The ice girl subconsciously took a step forward and murmured in a voice that she could only hear.
As long as the two of them are not at war with each other, it is a success!
Rean really didn't lie to me. He is a man who does what he says.
Their relationship has really eased. In that case, I also——
Just when Claire finally suppressed the impulse in her heart, Osborn spoke to Rean again: "You don't seem to have changed."
"Because I have my persistence."
Understanding is understanding, and recognition is recognition.
I understand your intentions, but I don't agree with your actions.
I will no longer mind the blood connection between you and me, but when it’s time to draw the sword, I won’t have any hesitation.
Even if the opponent is you!
Rean's expression was still calm, but his eyes were no longer calm. The sharpness that instantly lit up made even Osborn feel dazzling.
Even though the latter's courage has long been natural, Rean can still compete with him.
