Protagonist:

Xuan Ge

"Xuan Ge, what's your hometown like?"

The Trailblazer and Xuan Ge strolled through Motalie District in Li Na Xi Ta.

Without the Shorekeeper's presence, the two got along increasingly well, practically wanting to become sworn brothers.

Along the way, Xuan Ge occasionally glanced around, as if confirming nothing interesting had run off yet.

"Probably... teeming with life, all things flourishing."

Xuan Ge said it in a strange tone, which amused the Trailblazer.

"So you, this emperor, aren't home—aren't you afraid things will fall into chaos back home?"

"Chaos?" Xuan Ge shrugged, "Don't look at me acting like a good person now, but I used to be the Divine Might General; when in doubt, I kill decisively."

Hearing this, the Trailblazer froze for a moment, then finally realized.

"You... usurped the throne?"

He was a general before, now he's emperor.

If that's not usurpation, what is?

"Hey, what you're saying isn't right."

Xuan Ge stopped walking, glancing out of the corner of his eye at the bandaged woman who had been observing in the dark.

And at Ke Lai Ta hiding in the shadowy alley.

It seemed all these people were out for the Trailblazer.

"Failure is called rebellion; success makes one Emperor Xuan."

He was appointed by the Hunt; that rebellion was a planned performance, and Hua couldn't possibly bring the Heavenly Generals to fight to the death with him, this Divine Might General.

Do you understand the weight of being personally chosen by the Divine Bow?

So Hua had no second choice; she had only to obey.

After the Abundance Civil War, the foreign enemies had already vanished; without external pressure, internal conflict began to erupt.

Long Tao Ran was the first case.

Had he not raised troops to seize the throne, the Xian Zhou would have split sooner or later, and might even face the choice of Paths.

And yet there's a bunch of idiots who don't understand his move.

Too lazy to waste words; they don't deserve to hear it.

"Uh..." The Trailblazer was startled by Xuan Ge's self-righteous words, and laughed awkwardly while shaking his head.

It seemed Xuan Ge had no connection to any power from his homeland.

Perhaps it was somewhere back home—another star domain ruled by Xuan Ge that remained undiscovered.

"Then what brings you here?"

Pausing, the Trailblazer still said that somewhat roguish word.

"I really can't say it's for something grand."

He's already an emperor, so concubines are inevitable; Xuan Ge shouldn't go that far just for this.

"Trailblazer, Trailblazer, I see you just don't get it."

Xuan Ge nudged him with his elbow, then raised his chin toward Frolo's direction.

"Take her—though she has scale, she's too common; I have a collecting habit, you understand."

Frolo:?

The Trailblazer followed Xuan Ge's gaze and saw that woman from the Remnant Stars Society.

Zero-Frame Startup, Annihilation Power!

"Hey hey, what are you doing?"

Xuan Ge pulled the Trailblazer back; seeing his eager look, Xuan Ge was confused.

"You two have a grudge? Why try to cut someone down the moment you meet?"

"Xuan Ge, she's from the Remnant Stars Society; she came to the War Chant's turf, trying to restore many human-remnant frequencies into residual images."

"Hmph." Frolo chuckled; since she'd been discovered, there was no need to hide anymore.

The plan went awry when these two stat monsters teamed up; Christopher went to find the president, while she stayed behind to monitor.

"Long time no see."

Frolo ignored Xuan Ge's aim assist; she'd long known what kind of person he was.

But in her eyes, Xuan Ge wasn't important.

What mattered was him.

"Yo, more melon to eat?"

Xuan Ge saw the resentment hidden beneath Frolo's gentleness; he stepped back, preparing to eat melon with Ke Lai Ta.

"Indeed long time no see." The Trailblazer stared at Frolo, "Maybe I should send you to Jinzhou to sit with the Scars."

"Mm, maybe you'll have that chance later."

Frolo wasn't afraid; instead, she goaded the Trailblazer.

"But now, ever since someone descended upon Li Na Xi Ta, the chants here have been unusually restless."

She looked at Xuan Ge with meaning.

But at this glance, even though she had lived for over a thousand years, she still couldn't quite hold back.

Only to see Xuan Ge sitting on a long bench to the side, holding a melon he didn't know where he got from, eating it together with Ke Lai Ta, who looked extremely unwilling.

"She's looking over here." Ke Lai Ta held the melon with a twitching mouth; she really wanted to smash Xuan Ge in the face right now.

You eat your melon, so why drag yourself into this?

I was already preparing how to meet the Drifter, but this Xuan Ge just had to cause trouble.

"See, it's none of our business." Xuan Ge ate his melon with his legs crossed, looking like a helpful citizen.

"Tsk." Ke Lai Ta didn't have Xuan Ge's thick skin; seeing the Drifter look over, she immediately stuffed the melon into Xuan Ge's arms.

But her movement was still too slow, and the Drifter still noticed.

Xuan Ge nudged Ke Lai Ta with his elbow and asked, "Eh~ guess what their relationship is?"

"Hmph, who knows." Ke Lai Ta let out a soft hum; she really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into right now.

The way the Drifter looked at her just now was strange; it was all Xuan Ge's fault!

"Frolo has this feeling, as if the Drifter might still remember our past things."

Xuan Ge put into words that feeling of Frolo—gentleness mixed with the air of a resentful wife.

He knew about the Drifter's amnesia, which was why he guessed this way.

"I think it's more like unrequited love." Ke Lai Ta crossed her arms and said a spiteful remark.

After a while, Ke Lai Ta suddenly broke out of her melon-eating state; she didn't notice for a moment and imitated Xuan Ge.

"We can't afford that diamond."

Ke Lai Ta changed the subject; the diamond Xuan Ge wanted to sell wasn't something the Motari Family dared to accept.

Let alone buying the Motari Family; on the Black Coast side, they say the purity of this gem is no less than compressing a planet.

If Xuan Ge really wanted to sell it, even all of Solaris wouldn't be enough.

"Then I'll give it to you." Xuan Ge ate his melon and didn't take that gem seriously at all.

Since it can't be sold, I'll exchange it for a Solaris version of Sha Jin; isn't that fair?

Motari also has a say in Li Na Xi Ta, and they have their own Dajinku Bank; they are very rich.

"Give... give it to me?" Ke Lai Ta felt she was hallucinating; this super precious thing, he... he just gave it to me like that?

"You don't want it?"

Xuan Ge turned to look at Ke Lai Ta; seeing her shy look, a question mark appeared above Xuan Ge's head.

"I... I want it..." Ke Lai Ta nodded and avoided Xuan Ge's gaze.

"It's just a gem; consider it making a friend."

Xuan Ge rubbed Ke Lai Ta's head, then continued watching Frolo and the Drifter's melon.

He really found it more and more entertaining the more he watched.

Comparing the Drifter to himself, the Shore Guard might be Ling Sha, and this Frolo would be the ex-girlfriend.

Although there are differences, it doesn't hinder his comparison.

Now that the Drifter's ex-girlfriend has come to the door, he wants to see how the Drifter handles it.

Xuan Ge, who was watching the show, didn't know that Ke Lai Ta had already turned into a steam engine.

Now Ke Lai Ta's head was emitting wisps of white smoke, and her eyes had turned into circles of extreme shyness.

"Mmm~~~" Ke Lai Ta covered her face, which had turned red; Xuan Ge's proactive gift of the gem just now was exactly what her grandfather had said.

Her grandfather said that if a gem was given away, she, who had some connection with Xuan Ge, would need to pay an unequal price.

That was to marry into his family.

Her grandfather said it decisively; she felt that if she refused, her grandfather would be very angry.

Afterwards, she thought about it and felt it was also true; someone who owned such a gem was definitely not someone the Motari Family could extort.

So...

Could it be that Xuan Ge likes her?

Did he deliberately first attract the interest of this young lady from a great family, then, knowing the family's survival rules very well, finally take her down directly?

Xuan Ge didn't know that Ke Lai Ta was thinking more and more crookedly; his own purpose was very simple—he just wanted a Solaris version of Sha Jin.

After all, being full for one meal and being full for every meal, he, as the current emperor, could still tell the difference.
