Should we intervene and try to save them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Save them? What are you thinking! Even Hero Rank warriors fell here. How are we supposed to save them?

Their lives would no longer be treated as worthless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, for now, Aurek had to be ruthless—he was willing to kill many if it meant ensuring a better future!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>War to stop war, killing to end killing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he still felt uncomfortable deep down, Aurek knew there were no other options.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for how others would judge him—Aurek could not afford to care.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not concern himself with other people’s opinions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, night fell completely,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the torches on the execution grounds illuminated the entire area!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The executioners had changed several times, and the bodies were now piled into multiple small mountains!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The once terrified onlookers now began to grow numb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This emperor Aurek was a madman who loved killing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, similar thoughts began to fill the minds of the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Commander Gaia, riding a swift horse, rushed towards the execution grounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"His Majesty has issued a new command.
