Chapter 1115: Is it or isn't it?

You want to kill all the Royal Family? ！！！

After hearing "Princess Weiluonika's" words, the old King finally couldn't hold on, directly widened his eyes and scolded angrily:

"You dare?"

"Why wouldn't I dare?"

Looking at the old King who was broken by her words and was no longer in a high-and-mighty posture, "Princess Weiluonika" couldn't help but curl her lips, her expression pleasant but not lacking in regret:

"Sure enough, in your heart, what is most important is always things like 'the glory of the Royal Family' and 'the power of the King'. I, this daughter, have never been within your consideration.

Mm... but it can't be said that I have never been. When the

Looking at the old Emperor, who was seething with rage—appearing even angrier than when he had his head chopped off by her—the Iron Wang Gong couldn't help but shake his head, concluding with a cold, indifferent gaze:

"But once Mother passes away and Grandfather's family is drained dry by you just like the Laien family is now, having completely lost their utility, I, a daughter who can provide no resources, will no longer be qualified to receive fatherly love.

You are a decent father and have never been stingy with your affection, but it is a pity that your affection is conditional; it requires me to first hand over my own value."

"You?"

After hearing "Princess Veronica's" analysis of him as a father, the old Emperor's expression on the ground faltered slightly, and then he said with suspicious eyes:

"You... why do you know these things? Are you really Veronica?"

"Father, I have already said it many times: I am Veronica!"

Looking at the old Emperor, who remained skeptical, the Iron Wang Gong sneered:

"However, I am not that good daughter of yours who cares about family ties. Although I really don't want to admit it, strictly speaking, I should be considered the dark side that she actively suppressed."

"What do you mean?"

"It means that I am the collection of those dark thoughts she didn't want to acknowledge."

Looking down at the old Emperor, who was filled with shock and uncertainty on the ground, the Iron Wang Gong questioned him expressionlessly:

"Have you never wondered why your daughter almost never showed any negative emotions?

When she lost her mother and needed comfort the most, she was ignored by you, her father, for years, yet she never complained. She tried her best to be a good princess, yet she received almost no praise, and she never felt disappointed.

Even though she was single-handedly supporting the Wang Guoli, she was provoked by her stupid younger brother and criticized and scolded by a stepmother even stupider than that brother, yet she never felt resentment or cursed.

Even when you revealed your intention to strip away her years of hard work and marry her off far away, her first reaction was to find a way to solve it, rather than having a big argument with you... Don't you find that strange?"

"I..."

"Don't 'I' me. You really should thank me for having such an outstanding daughter."

Seeing the old Emperor, whose expression was somewhat shocked and whose eyes showed a hint of shame, the Iron Wang Gong couldn't help but shake his head:

"From the moment she found me six years ago and placed me in her bedroom, the belief I represent—to change the Wang Guoli and ensure tragedies are not repeated—became the sustenance in her heart.

It's not that she hasn't been angry or resentful all these years; it's just that those turbulent negative emotions, that resentment and unwillingness, were all suppressed by the wishes and ideals I represent.

But these impulses and evil thoughts, which she suppressed with reason whenever she saw me, wouldn't just disappear into thin air. She endured you for six years, and these suppressed things accumulated bit by bit within me for six years.

By the time you confined her in the bedroom, the things accumulated over these six years finally exceeded the limit of what her reason could suppress. And when the resentment in her heart outweighed her kindness and reason, it became my turn to suppress her!"

"..." So... it was the events of three days ago that stimulated Veronica, becoming the final straw that broke the camel's back and awakened the anomaly in her bedroom?

After listening to the Iron Wang Gong's account, a look of deep regret could not help but appear on the old Emperor's face. Looking at the "daughter" in front of him, he murmured with eyes full of remorse:

"If... if I had known it would be like this..."

Hearing the old Emperor's words, the Iron Wang Gong's figure paused slightly, and a hint of struggle appeared in her emerald glass eyes, however...

"I shouldn't have locked you in the bedroom!"

"..."

As expected, someone like you is fundamentally incapable of regret.

After a silent pause, as if something that had been tethered to her body had suddenly been snapped, a smile of incomparable humanity suddenly appeared on the "Princess's" stiff, iron-skinned face.

Immediately after, her leg joints, which had been twisted by the nail gun, miraculously recovered after twisting twice, even showing a hint of softness and dexterity that did not belong to metal, suddenly gaining a few more human qualities.

"Thank you, my father."

After moving her joints, which had become smooth and agile and were now no different from a human's, the Iron Wang Gong smiled and spoke:

"Sorry, I lied to you just now. Actually, I am not Veronica, but I am indeed an anomaly that was able to revive only by borrowing her suppressed dark side."

"???"

Looking at the old Emperor on the ground, whose eyes were full of shock and anger, the Iron Wang Gong, who was becoming more and more human, smiled and thanked him:

"As a direct descendant of the thirteen royal families, Veronica's will was much tougher than I expected. Even at a time like this, she was still preventing me from killing you completely.

If you hadn't turned around and personally killed her last shred of innocence, I'm afraid I would have been entangled with her for a long time, or even suppressed by her in turn, and might not have been able to kill all the royal family members.

Hehe, looking at it this way, you really are my father. After all, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been born at all. And to thank you for your kindness to me..."

Amidst the old Emperor's regretful expression, the Iron Wang Gong raised the ceremonial sword in her hand again and slashed down directly at his head.

"I'll give you a quick end!"

Could it be... that I was really wrong?

Looking at the "Princess" who had no more hesitation or struggle in her eyes and was smiling as she slashed a sword toward his forehead, a deep look of remorse finally appeared in the old Emperor's gemstone eyes.

If... if only he could have been a little better to Veronica, if he could have given her a little more care, or even... even believed in her just once, would the current situation be different?

But... it is already too late...

"Bang!"

Just as the old Emperor was watching the ceremonial sword slash down in deep regret, despairingly preparing to wait for death, the window beside them suddenly exploded. A surging airflow, carrying broken window frames and glass shards, roared directly into the study.
