Chapter 613: Chapter 549: Is There Anyone Willing to Accompany
to the Underworld?
Yeah, knowing that I’ve been taken hostage and unable to confirm whether I’m within the target range, just ordering a scorched-earth bombardnt, isn’t that saying...
He truly wants to kill ?!
"It seems you’ve figured it out."
After glancing at the erald-eyed girl’s difficult expression, Leon continued:
"Of course, if you want to forcefully explain it, you might insist he has a way to detect whether you’re in the target range, ensuring you won’t be accidentally hurt before ordering the strike.
But as I ntioned earlier, he has tried to get rid of you at least twice.
Besides this ambush on the Scorpio Branch Chief, he also gave Atifie00 orders to constantly monitor the situation outside the Crolock Kingdom. If a suspected target like
or another cleaner tries to leave, unleash heavy bombardnts until completely annihilated."
After relaying the information heard from Atifie00, and seeing Feiliya’s face turn ghastly pale, Leon summarized:
"I don’t deny he cares about you as his sister, but you must understand one thing: to him, your safety isn’t as important as it appears.
He will go all out to try to save you, but if there’s a chance you might leave the Crolock Kingdom and co under the Clean-up Bureau’s protection, he’ll kill you without hesitation... Do you agree with my judgnt?"
"..."
"If you remain silent, I’ll take it as agreent."
After glancing at the silent Feiliya, Leon calmly asked:
"So, now that you understand your actual status in Prince Andre’s eyes, would you consider cooperating with ?"
"?"
Upon hearing Leon offer an olive branch, Princess Feiliya couldn’t hold back anymore. She widened her erald-like eyes in frustration and yelled:
"Are you crazy or sothing?
If you hadn’t taken
hostage, things wouldn’t have gotten to this point! Yet you dare to ask
to cooperate with you?"
"Is there a problem?"
Leon raised an eyebrow and asked in return:
"He wants to kill ; I want to kill him, so we’re enemies. Now he wants to kill you, too, so why not turn the tables and cooperate with
to kill him?"
"You... It’s not that simple!"
Confused by Leon’s overly straightforward logic, the erald-eyed girl stamped her foot, angrily arguing:
"If it weren’t for you, he wouldn’t want to kill ! And if I could be rescued, he wouldn’t harm
either. So I just need to wait for him to defeat you, and I’ll be saved. Why should I cooperate with you?"
"Hmm... Makes sense."
After seriously listening to the erald-eyed girl, Leon nodded in agreent, then took out the [Silver Dagger of Cutting], pressing it against her heart, and seriously proposed:
"I can leave a chanism within you ahead of ti, like cutting open your heart with this dagger but not piecing it back together. If I destroy the dagger before I die, the ability left on your incision will fail, ensuring my death also ans your death.
So now, you can choose to cooperate with
to defeat Andre; maybe both of us survive. Or abandon cooperation to see
lose, and accompany
in death, while Andre, who tried to kill you twice, ends up surviving... Which outco do you prefer?"
This man... He’s practically a devil!
Looking at Leon’s calm and steady tone, but with words like knives constantly provoking her dark thoughts, the erald-eyed girl felt a chill running up her back.
Subconsciously stepping back to break free from the knife’s tip against her skin, Feiliya covered the slash on her chest with her hand and gritted her teeth:
"I... I choose the second option!
Prince Andre doesn’t really want to kill ; he has his reasons! Compared to surviving by betraying him, I’d rather die with you!"
Reasons?
After exchanging a glance with the sheep head in the erald-eyed girl’s embrace, from the Black Mountain Sheep’s aningful expression, Leon got the answer that ’this is the truth’, nodding slightly before questioning again:
"So, you and Prince Andre are both mbers of the organization targeting the royal family?"
"?!!!"
Seeing Leon disclose her biggest secret, the erald-eyed girl trembled, and spoke in shock:
"How did you... Ugh..."
"Don’t worry, I’m not bluffing; I genuinely guessed this."
After quickly grasping the situation, and covering her mouth sharply, Feiliya’s exquisite face was full of regret, Leon shook his head slightly:
"Earlier, you ntioned Prince Andre had ’reasons’. I interpret reasons like—if you might fall into the Clean-up Bureau’s hands, he’d have to choose to kill you.
This proves there’s definitely so kind of ’restraint’ on him, and the restraint’s content is likely to ensure the royal bloodline must be cut off. Who but that organization could impose such a ’restraint’?
Based on my observation of Prince Andre, this person probably isn’t afraid to die and even has slight self-destructive tendencies, so threats of force likely don’t affect him much.
Then, it must be through receiving so irresistible condition from that organization that he chose to join it and accept such strict restraints... Would you like to tell
about this?
"..."
It’s just because I said he has his reasons, and you deduced all this?!
Marveling at Leon’s perceptiveness, and afraid of accidentally revealing more deadly information, the erald-eyed girl tightly covered her mouth, deciding not to utter another word to him, however...
"If you don’t want to speak, then don’t."
Seeing Feiliya defensively covering her mouth as if guarding against a thief, Leon couldn’t help but shake his head slightly and sigh:
"After all, you are siblings by blood, and under such circumstances, it’s normal you’re unwilling to betray him; I understand."
"..."
Feeling Leon’s words carried hidden aning, the erald-eyed girl held back her curiosity but eventually couldn’t help it, covering her mouth and muffledly pursuing:
"What do you an?"
"What I an is, although over ten years have passed, and the original brain is lost, both your soul and body are indeed the original Princess Feiliya."
Acknowledging her shocked expression, Leon slowly uncovered the truth:
"I doubted earlier, if you were rely a derived core program from intelligent machinery, it would be impossible to have a genuine soul, incapable of deceiving my eyes.
After questioning Atifie00, who claims to be your aunt, I confird your soul, while sowhat peculiar, is indeed a human soul.
You are a recreated Princess Feiliya through combining the adjusted soul using Soul Encoding Technology with an artificial Feiliya’s body. So you aren’t rely a core from intelligent machinery; you are yourself, a living human being."
