Chapter 254: Li En's Family Meal

The world always moves forward, but civilization does not necessarily.

Civilization is always inheriting and blending, but intelligent races do not necessarily.

Intelligent races are being replaced, and whether human nature can endure forever.

"Anyway, no matter what, we still have to live our little lives."

Some things become simpler once revealed; all the excessive caution Li En has shown for so long seems to have been overthinking.

The mastermind behind the transmigration does not exist, or rather, the mastermind has no interest in interfering with his life; this is undoubtedly the best news Li En wanted to hear.

Just live well yourself and live your own life well.

"It seems, it really seems there is no mastermind behind the scenes; did a pie really fall from the sky?"

The power of the heroic souls has always been a pressure and a supervision to him.

The inhumanity of the feudal hierarchy system made it necessary for him to be extremely cautious.

But now it seems, one thought for kindness, one thought for kingship; there is nothing Lex cannot do. Yet he is still the most human-like in the old kingdom; whether the kingdom revives or not seems unimportant.

"Uh, it seems I still have to live my own little life and take care of the people around me."

Li En no longer has awe or shackles; after all, from the perspective of the Thousand-Faced Dragon, winning or losing, life or death, even the inheritance of a race, are unimportant; what does the gain or loss of an era amount to?

"The highest priority is always to acquire power."

If Li En had Lex's power, the problems before him would not be problems; if Li En had the Great Red Dragon's power, restoring the imperial system and building a harem starting tomorrow would pose no problems at all.

"Can I also become like the Great Red Dragon?"

The Great Red Dragon is a "Dream Awakener"; I am also a Dream Awakener. It is very likely that our starting points, talents, and hardware are the same; is it possible for me to reach that stage as well?

"This Hero selection is also an opportunity for me."

The current Hero selection is both the conclusion of Lex's karma and an opportunity for Li En to gain fame, connections, and power. As long as the deer is sealed, Lex's regrets should be considered concluded, right?

"Let's take it slow. The first goal is 'single-mindedness'; get this resource in hand first."

The Great Red Dragon might also have an outrageous growth experience, but Li En does not think he will lose.

At least Lex's "single-mindedness" growth talent should be rare in history.

Obtaining this "growth cheat" naturally equals acquiring power.

No need for two years; as long as single-mindedness constantly accelerates growth, Li En is confident he can achieve a qualitative change in just one year.

If he can truly reach the fifth tier within half a year or a year and become a true Great Warrior, there will be much more he can do then.

Outside the window, it is already noon; the scent of hot bread and honey from lunch flows through the mansion, and Li En also feels a bit hungry.

The family members sat together, and Miss Shaliman, with a face full of worry, felt very uncomfortable as the new heroic soul heirs, each ambitious, were mentioned.

Especially their attitude, as if the kingdom and the Hero candidates were already in their grasp, made people angry.

"Those guys show no respect even to the Princess." Perhaps to those Hero candidates, "the Kingdom's Princess" is just an extra on this prize.

When certain matters are not involved, Miss Shaliman is quite loyal to Dai Niya.

"It's fine; I will win the Hero title."

These calm words are a goal that must be achieved.

Li En has no interest in what this title represents, but he is very interested in "not giving the title/Dai Niya to others."

"Is that so?" Miss Shaliman hesitated. She indeed did not want Dai Niya to be put in a difficult position, but she did not want Li En to get involved even more.

"It's fine; trust me."

Li En smiled calmly and pulled the worried girl into his arms.

Then, smiling, he happily watched Miss Shaliman first show a surprised expression, then blush red, lower her head, and act like a little girl.

Holding her slightly, feeling this softness and warmth, Li En inexplicably felt a trace of happiness.

"Mm, I believe you."

For the first time being treated so actively by Li En, this unprecedented tenderness and initiative made the usually proactive Miss Shaliman blush and lower her head shamefully.
