Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

"Why are you still alive?"

The Prime Minister's words were as sharp as a blade, like a lingering cold wind, blowing towards his face.

It was as if the air was freezing.

After winning the war, being grateful, being admired, being recognized, being in awe, the atmosphere like the stars holding the moon, the hero who saved a country, this air filled with the sweetness and joy of victory, was stabbed by the cold words Broken, followed by a bone-chilling chill.

The person in front of him, Cleveland's father, the man who lost his son.

Eyes and expressions, condensed the inseparable coldness.

After a second, Tina reacted and hurriedly stood in front of Kant: "Uncle Cid!"

Condela stayed with her.

The Prime Minister bowed slightly, polite and graceful, without a single mistake, and his expression was calm, as if the previous sentence was an illusion: "Your Highness Princess, what advice do you have?"

What happened now was greatly unexpected, Tina was a little flustered, and her tone was almost pleading: "Uncle Cid, this is not Kant's fault, we are all very sad about Cleveland, so..."

"—I understand, Your Highness."

The Prime Minister's tone and expression did not fluctuate at all. It was cold and calm, like a bottomless cold pool. It was scary because you didn't know what he was thinking, or even if he was angry.

He said calmly: "But what does this have to do with me?"

The Prime Minister turned to look at Kant and repeated: "My son is dead, for me, this is the result of this matter... My only son is dead, my most beloved, and I have high hopes. The Cleveland Cavaliers, the pride of the Kelam family, who taught me and watched him grow up, who carried on my life, dreams, heritage and blood, died."

"What does it mean to die?"

"Meaning, I'll never see him again."

"That's my only thought, all my feelings, as a middle-aged, bereaved father."

He stared at Kant and said calmly, "Now that you know, is there anything else to say?"

"...Uncle Cid!"

Tina's face flushed red, and she clutched Kant's arm tightly, her eyes filled with tears: "I can understand how you feel, but please don't say such things, you will only tarnish Cleveland's honor and sacrifice. , he kept his mission and faith, until in the end, his sacrifice..."

"—his sacrifice set off a chain of events that culminated in the hero's miraculous saving of this crumbling nation, his sacrifice saving the nation, you meant to say that, right?"

The Prime Minister's words mercilessly interrupted this divine greatness.

His well-trimmed eyebrows twitched gently, perhaps a manifestation of the sultry politician's uncontrollable anger, and his icy eyes were full of ridicule and anger.

"So, as Prime Minister Goethe, I thank His Royal Highness Kant for what he has done for this country, and I remember all the great victims. As the ruler of this country, I really appreciate him."

He pointed to his heart: "But I am also a father, he saved this country, saved your Teddaril family, saved most of the Goethes who might die, and saved the relatives of many nobles. , wealth and status, so, the whole city is grateful to him, everyone is cheering, mentioning this name, Kant, seems to be calling the name of a god, but ah..."

"But ah..."

The Prime Minister's tone was cold: "But not everyone was saved by you, not everyone thanked you, remember this, hero, because for me, for a father, this battle As a result, it is still a cold home, a cold darkness and a daze, a future where there is no difference between living, dying, the city is, the city is broken, the country is in, and the country is destroyed."

"My son is dead."

He stared into Kant's eyes: "You have a share too, right?"

"-enough!"

Tina said sharply: "Mr. Prime Minister! Such accusations and slander are not allowed! The killers who killed Cleveland were the Goode family and the empire. You can't blame Kant, who is also a victim!"

The Prime Minister said coldly: "Really? If he has no guilt in his heart, what would he do today?"

"...You are angering!"

"If you think so, so be it."

He looked at Tina and said coldly: "Are you demanding that a father who has lost his son remain calm and rational? Also, Your Royal Highness, if I call this anger, then a few months ago, you mistakenly thought that Mr. Kant also What is the murderous intent and tyranny displayed when Huisha died?"

Tina's expression changed suddenly, she clenched her fists, took a deep breath, pulled Kant and turned away.

Kant held her hand and shook his head.

Tina still wanted to speak, and the Prime Minister's fire returned to Kant.

"Mr. Kant, since I'm here today, can you answer my long-standing questions by the way?"

Kant said calmly: "You say."

"I heard that you annihilated five dragon flag battle groups outside the city of Valentine, which shocked the world. You broke through all the way three days ago. Such power, even if it is not like a god, is not far from the holiness of heroes in ancient times."

"—Why, in Huisha Town, just two or three months ago, you were toyed with applause by the incompetent Samuel, the Penguin was completely destroyed, and my son died there, please answer What did I, you, at that time? You saved Valentine, Danfeng Lucerne, and the power of Goethe, why couldn't you save my son, what were you doing when the Huisha changed?"

Speaking of this, the Prime Minister's tone kept rising, almost to the verge of roaring.

When Kant arrived in the sky of Danfeng Lucerne with unprecedented and unmatched strength and defeated the elf expedition force like a bamboo, the whole Danfeng Lucerne people cheered and jumped for joy.

Not including the Prime Minister.

The father who lost his son is just thinking, what are you doing when you are so powerful, Huisha Town.

Because that's how things turned out.

Kant used this power to save the entire Goethe, but failed to save his son.

"Is this power awakened and used because of my son's death, or..." he asked, "or did you decide to use it after watching him die?"

Kant didn't answer.

What's the point of answering.

And the Prime Minister did not expect him to answer.

This is the truth.

How to.

"Why are you coming..."

Prime Minister Sid sighed.

"What are you doing? Mr. Kant, great hero."

As the head of a country, what a terrifying vision and experience, piercing eyes, penetrating people's hearts.

The Prime Minister's eyes were full of indifference and ridicule from beginning to end.

"I know what you're here for."

"The first time I saw you, I knew what you were here for."

"Obviously, coming like a hero at the time of Goethe's demise, turning the tide, achieving an epic victory, being grateful to the nation, shocking the world, for you now, Cleveland is the last shadow of this glorious Goethe Way, You came here not to visit us, but to seek peace of mind and to hear what you want to hear."

"You want to see my wife and I's tolerance, relief and comfort for you, and to hear our understanding and even gratitude - Cleveland's sacrifice is worthwhile, please live with my son's sake, It's not your fault, he and you did the right thing...you want to hear that, then you can feel at ease, you can cry a lot, you can let go."

"This can win you double your gratitude and guilt, win your double compensation and concessions, and even in this way, it is logical to win more goodwill, shelter and commitment from you for Goethe, as well as for me and Kelam. The family has won the friendship and goodwill of a super guardian, and you, Your Highness Kant, you can also untie the entanglement and shackles of anxiety, it is really a win-win approach."

"But here, there is a problem."

"As a politician, I can say a thousand words without blinking my eyes, and I will definitely be able to coax Lord Guardian into obedience, but..."

He said slowly: "But as a father, I can't say such disgusting words."

"So, my answer is simple."

"Kant of Aurora, even if the whole Goethe is praising your name, even if the whole country is grateful to you, even as the Prime Minister, I must respect you and greet you with a smile, but as a father, I do not forgive, I don't understand, I don't appreciate it, I don't let it go."

"Because your grace and light shine on the whole country, but it does not shroud us."

"I'm sorry to disappoint you."

"Even if the whole country surrounds you with flattery and countless words of awe and gratitude, with me, forever and ever, you will never hear what you want to hear."

He was well mannered, and his movements still maintained a graceful demeanor.

"If there is nothing else, please leave, the Kelam family does not welcome you."

"If you are angry with my words and actions today, please use your majesty and means to retaliate. I am not afraid. Even if you are as powerful as you, what can you take away from me."

After he finished speaking, he saluted one by one, the gorilla, and even the coachman standing in the distance, all greeted him.

Then he turned his head, turned around, and walked back along the long, smooth and clean road, and walked among his colleagues, subordinates and students. The true expression of his father was once again obscured by the mask of politicians. Goethe's prime minister was silent but firm. The rock of the man is approachable, always smiling, without any dignity or sternness at all, but the Grand Duke respects him, his subordinates support him, and his subjects fear him.

With a warm smile, he walked slowly and slowly.

The bureaucratic courtiers of the Prime Minister's faction waited with bated breath.

Waiting for the leader.

"Attention! All are silent! His Excellency Cid-Karam is leaving for the Privy Council. Prime Minister Goethe will, as always, defend the rule of Teddaril, the interests of the country, and the well-being of the people! May the light always shine on Goethe's land, and may all Goethe heroes I still do my duty today!"

This may be a ceremonial thing. As the butler-like person shouted such words, the officials surrounding the Prime Minister slowly walked along the street under the leadership of Xide. The servants of the Prime Minister's house and the residents nearby, Busy soldiers, officials and workers bowed their heads in greeting.

Kant and his party watched all this.

Tina shuddered suddenly.

Yes, the knight is dead.

Only the Prime Minister remains.

A person who has been deeply involved in Goethe's politics for decades, and whose family forces have been intertwined in Goethe for hundreds of years, integrates and controls Goethe's largest political faction, is respected by the Grand Duke, and is trusted by his subjects, who has lost his son, hope, and future father.

Just now, Prime Minister Goethe, who has never made mistakes, mistakes and anger in public for decades, showed a very obvious hostile attitude towards Kant.

It was only now that Tina carefully recalled the Prime Minister's last words.

Make her shudder.

- Even if you are as strong as you, what can you take away from me.

what does that mean…

For a moment, even Tina didn't dare to think deeply.

At this moment, Kant said calmly, "Let's go."

Tina turned her head to look, Kant's expression was very calm, but it looked like a volcano about to erupt.

She whispered: "Kant..."

"I'm fine."

He smiled at Tina, then turned to the carriage: "It's over."

Get in the car and leave.

In the silent carriage, not only Tina, but even the gorilla didn't dare to take a breath.

- If someone else had dared to speak to Kant like that, the Platinum Orangutan would have been scratching his head long ago, but just now she didn't dare to do anything, and she didn't even say a word, not because she was afraid of that prime minister, but Afraid of Kant around him.

"...Hey, Kant."

Tina also looked preoccupied and silent, obviously not counting on it.

Miss Platinum Gorilla thought for a long time, and finally reluctantly spoke.

Kant looked over curiously.

Ah Chiang said with a painful expression: "If rubbing against her with your face can make you feel better, I can pretend that I didn't see it this time..."

"…"

"…"

Kant and Tina were awakened at the same time, and then looked at each other, the princess stroked the corner of her skirt subconsciously.

Then, the two laughed together.

"...Why do you always think what did you do together secretly?"

Although the gorilla sent out such a soul torture, the atmosphere finally became a lot more active.

"Thanks, I'm fine."

"Is it really okay?"

"Um…"

Kant smiled: "What else can I do? He is him, his father is his father, it's good to distinguish clearly. If you don't forgive, you won't forgive, what's the big deal, what can hinder me? What should I do, continue Just do it, if he changes his mind because of his father's words, then he will be sorry for him."

He met Tina's worried eyes and shrugged.

"If you scold him if he feels comfortable, let him scold him. Quan should be doing his filial piety for Cleveland. This is the only time, next time you dare to talk to me like this, hum..."

Tina just forced a smile.

She still remembered the Prime Minister's demeanor, language and eyes, and his last words. Cid had lost everything, so she could not hesitate to hostile, reject and scold Kant without worrying about revenge, because he really had nothing to fear. .

But such a person is still Goethe's chief executive, the maker and implementer of national policy.

And now it is...

In Goethe's initial setting, but under the surface of the water will inevitably be turbulent today.

Kant's defeat of the elf invading army and the deterrence of the twilight moon will inevitably shock the mainland and usher in peace for Goethe, but the deterrence of power will inevitably arouse the fear and hostility of all countries, and the conflict on the frontal battlefield will not happen. , calculation and malice are bound to come one after another.

Goethe will not be calm for some time to come.

At this time, the Prime Minister...

Tina faintly felt that this matter may not be as simple as it seems.

perhaps…

The wheels rolled and returned to the palace.

Although Kant complained and complained for a while, he continued to be silent after he finished speaking.

Tina took a peek at the gorilla, who was holding one of Kant's arms and resting on Kant's shoulder so quietly, so the princess gently pulled Kant's other hand and put it on her lap.

Even though she was wearing a long skirt, she could still vaguely feel the touch that was different from her skin.

The other hand wrapped around Kant's arm, Tina slowly embraced it, and pressed her whole body to it.

The warm touch, the charming charm, the left hug and the right hug, the boundless beauty.

Kant just stared blankly at the roof of the carriage.

"...I'm not as bad as he said, am I?"
