Chapter 246: I once trusted you very much

"So you can smile too. I always thought that an expression like a smile wouldn't appear on your face."

Esdeath recovered her calm after the initial surprise.

"I once... trusted you very much."

Esdeath whispered.

"Ah, I know."

Su Xiao's voice was calm, and the two looked at each other.

"Since we are not on the same path, then today it's either you die or I die."

Esdeath's tone was cold, cold air gushing from her body, and ice crystals appeared on the ground under her feet.

Su Xiao carried the Little Emperor in one hand and picked up the key floating in mid-air with the other. A prompt from Reincarnation Paradise appeared.

【Complete/Not Complete Main Quest: Teigu · Supreme Power】

Choosing to complete it, the activation key for the Supreme Power shattered in Su Xiao's hand. This scene caused an uproar among everyone present.

"How could... this be? You damn bastard!"

An angry roar came. The obese Prime Minister ran out from the crowd. At this moment, the Prime Minister's expression was ferocious.

The Revolutionary Army had already surrounded the Imperial Capital, and the Supreme Teigu had become the last trump card in the Prime Minister's hand.

"Esdeath, didn't you say there was no problem? What's going on!"

The Prime Minister lost control of his emotions and roared at Esdeath.

"Fat pig, shut up."

Esdeath looked coldly at the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister's body shivered, suddenly remembering that this female general in front of him had once ordered the live burial of hundreds of thousands of people.

The Prime Minister said in a low voice: "What should we do now? Without the Supreme Teigu, we are all finished."

"At most, we will be surrounded and killed by the Revolutionary Army. You are too afraid of death, Prime Minister."

Esdeath didn't take life and death too seriously.

"What? You don't have the confidence to repel the Revolutionary Army?"

"Are you dreaming? The Revolutionary Army has nearly two million troops surrounding the Imperial Capital. If you have the ability to break out from two million people, feel free to escape."

The Prime Minister's face gradually turned pale. He didn't want to die; he still wanted to control the Empire and become the Emperor.

"It's all because of you, bastard. I want to skin you alive."

The Prime Minister pointed at Su Xiao.

"Oh? Are you sure?"

Su Xiao's eyes contained a smile. He was very interested in killing the Prime Minister.

"You..."

The Prime Minister's face flushed red, and he took two steps forward.

"If he is determined to kill you, he might succeed, so hide in the back like a pig."

Esdeath suddenly spoke. The Prime Minister stopped his footsteps, looking at Su Xiao with trepidation. He began to re-examine Su Xiao.

Being surrounded by the Empire's strongest general and tens of thousands of troops but remaining calm, this kind of spirit made the Prime Minister sigh.

"Prime Minister, it's good that you're okay. Hurry and think of a way to save me. I've been kidnapped."

The Little Emperor looked at the Prime Minister with joy.

"Your Highness?"

The Prime Minister looked at the Little Emperor with a smile that wasn't a smile.

"I was worried about you before..."

The Little Emperor was interrupted by the Prime Minister halfway through his sentence.

"Trash."

"Eh?"

The Little Emperor looked at the Prime Minister in astonishment.

"What's the use of having you if you can't activate the Supreme Teigu? Wasting so much of my secret medicine."

The Prime Minister looked at the Little Emperor with dissatisfaction, his face full of disdain.

"Eh?"

The Little Emperor began to be unable to understand the situation before him. The Prime Minister actually said he was trash and was even prepared to abandon him. Was this still the Prime Minister who had always taken care of him?

"Your Highness, you are useless now. Go die with this thief. I have no patience to play with you anymore."

The Prime Minister's words made the Little Emperor lose all hope, his face as pale as paper.

"Prime Minister... have you been using me all along? This must be a joke, right?"

The Little Emperor looked foolish. This time, the Prime Minister didn't even look at him much.

The Revolutionary Army was attacking, and the inability to activate the Supreme Teigu meant the Little Emperor had no use. The Prime Minister had to escape for his life.

"General Esdeath, after solving this thief, let's find a way to leave the Imperial Capital. The era of the two of us ruling the Empire might be over."

The Prime Minister sighed. The shattering of the Supreme Teigu key just now made him a bit uncomposed.

"If you want to leave, find your own way. I will stay and fight to the death with the Revolutionary Army."

Esdeath didn't deny that the two of them ruled the Empire. The facts were exactly like that: the Prime Minister managed the internal affairs of the Empire, Esdeath was responsible for fighting outside, and they discussed any major events.

"You..."

The Little Emperor now completely understood that he had always been used. The Prime Minister and General he trusted most were the true rulers of this country.

"Someone, take them both down."

The Little Emperor shouted, but the several hundred soldiers around remained indifferent.

"Take us both down? I am your most trusted Prime Minister. You were brought up by me, hahaha."

The Prime Minister looked at the Little Emperor with a laugh, the other party actually wanted to order his men.

"Don't worry about the Little Emperor when attacking. He's useless."

"Yes, my lord."

Unlike the Little Emperor's order, after the Prime Minister gave the order, most of the soldiers in the ancestral hall responded in unison, and the rest were Esdeath's subordinates.

Su Xiao didn't pay attention to what the Prime Minister and the Little Emperor were saying. He was checking the prompt from Reincarnation Paradise.

【Main quest reward has been deposited into the brand. Detecting that the Hunter has completed the main quest, starting to issue the return quest.】

【Main Quest 2: Coordinate Positioning】

Difficulty Level: Lv. 4

Quest Introduction: Arrive at a specific location in the derived world and set a coordinate. The coordinate locator has been deposited into the Hunter's storage space.

Quest Information: The coordinate locator is a precious resource. If it is lost in the Hunter's hands, 100,000 Paradise Coins will be deducted. If Paradise Coins are insufficient, equipment and items of equivalent value will be forcibly collected from the Hunter.

Quest Deadline: 10 natural days.

Quest Reward: Return qualification.

Quest Penalty: Forced execution.

The return mission finally appeared. Su Xiao did not know why Samsara Paradise had him set the coordinates, but the location for the coordinates was extremely infuriating; it was actually outside the imperial capital, and not close to it at all.

Su Xiao could be said to have wings but couldn't fly. The only way was to kill his way out, but Esdeath + Wave + tens of thousands of soldiers, the probability of him killing his way out was very low.

This was a dead end and also a lesson. Pay attention to details in the future, if there is a future.

After touching a woman's corpse, wash your hands. What a painful lesson.

"Hahaha."

Su Xiao suddenly laughed. He had been planning step by step from the Far North, but in the end, he was exposed because of the scent on Kurome.

"What are you laughing at?"

Esdeath's mouth also showed a smile for some reason.

"I fooled you, fooled the Prime Minister, fooled hundreds of thousands of soldiers, but in the end, I fell to Wave's nose. What a... speechless result."

Su Xiao didn't regret it. In the derived world, it was like this, success or failure, and he might be able to kill his way out.

"Let's have a hearty fight. If you win, my life is yours, Esdeath."

"That's exactly what I intended. I finally know why I trusted you. It turns out we are the same kind of people."

Esdeath looked very excited. ===== CHAPTER 247 =====
