honor me as god

Since the beginning of the war, Kino has frequently appeared in public, and the panic-stricken people have become the perfect nourishment for the emotional harvest of the triple shackles.

The admiration and respect in the hearts of the friendly troops, the despair and fear of the enemy before death, and the scene of turning the tide of the battle with one's own power, just like the death scene, all the more make the awe value increase majesticly.

The war has been going on for more than half a month now, and Kino has harvested the emotions of countless people, and the values ​​of respect, fear, and awe in the triple shackles have exceeded [-] million.

Putting aside fear and awe for the time being, it is absolutely impossible for Andre to try to use blockade tactics to kill the rebel army.

Kino's respect points can be directly exchanged for items. The rarer the items and the higher the technological content, the more respect points they need, and vice versa.

The most basic materials like food are simply not too cheap.

It can be said that even if Andre is blocked for another five or ten years, he will exhaust the strategic reserves of the entire Dogolande, and the rebel army can eat two bowls every meal, and eat one bowl and pour another bowl.

Of course, Chino didn't intend to drag Andre to death.

A person's emotional range is limited, and there is a saying in the book of war in previous lives: one effort, then decline, and three exhaustion.

The slaves in the rebel army are not professional soldiers, and they don't have the patience to fight a protracted war. Don't look at them now, they are full of enthusiasm, and they want to cut off the shackles on themselves for thousands of years. The momentum is extraordinary.

Once time dragged on, and the slaves sat comfortably in the status quo every day, their motivation would probably disappear. If Andre caught this point and launched a surprise attack, he might be defeated.

Moreover, the time to summon Fitch is also limited. She devoured the Trojan elite headed by Edward in Fengyun Pass this time, and also devoured many humans in the follow-up war. It has soared sharply, I am afraid that the awe value of over [-] million is not enough to spend.

There is also the Far Eastern Dynasty. They are not moving now. If the fight goes on for a long time and this foreign dynasty gets involved, the situation will only fall into further chaos.

Therefore, we must find an opportunity to expand the results of the battle and hold the initiative in our own hands.

"Squeak—" Just as Kino was digging into the sand table, the door of the command room was pushed open. He had already judged the person coming from the sound of light footsteps, and a faint smile appeared on his face: "Good evening, little one." Princess. Or should I call you in advance. Her Majesty the Queen?"

Solandelle couldn't help but smile: "You're joking, I'm neither a princess nor a queen now, just a commoner who has been deprived of her status~"

After more than half a month of recuperation, compared with the embarrassment she had just arrived in Twilight City, Solandelle's current physical and mental state has improved significantly.

However, the innocent and brilliant Ninth Princess who lived in fairy tales is no longer there, and the vicissitudes and exhaustion of going through the world are like a shadow, leaving eternal traces in her eyes.

Except for the initial greeting, the two of them didn't speak. The atmosphere was silent for some reason. Kino looked back at Solandelle and asked, "You seem to have something to say, what can I do for you?"

Solandelle's eyes were a bit complicated. She lowered her head and rubbed the corner of her clothes, and said in a low voice, "I have a lot to say, but I don't know where to start. You have been controlling the whole situation during this period of time. I shelter from the wind and rain."

"I really appreciate what you have done to me, so no matter what you do, I will support you. And I also know that someone like me who hides behind and is protected should not talk too much. Just."

Kino had already understood the meaning of the words, and interrupted her directly: "There is no one else here, you can say whatever you want—you don't agree with my practice of letting slaves slaughter the nobles of Twilight City?"

Solandelle lowered her head, her voice was so soft that she could barely hear it: "I just think that not all nobles are bad people, and some innocent people shouldn't die like that."

Chino: "But this is war. The good guys, the bad guys, the guilty, the innocent...everyone can die."

"And you should be very clear that that is our strategic method. In order to deter the monolithic nobles, we must do that."

"Now some nobles are intimidated and choose to surrender in Kaesong when we arrive, I will treat them with dignity.

"But if they don't cooperate later, I will let the massacre in Twilight City happen again. You should know all of this."

"I know, I know." Solandelle murmured, her voice trembling, "It's because I talk too much. I believe in your choice, as always."

Just as Sorendel finished speaking and was about to leave, Kino came behind and put her shoulders on her shoulders, lightly held her chin with his other hand, rubbed his index finger on the soft red lips, and bent over to Solandelle's lips. In Er's ear, the voice was filled with an unprecedented depth: "You must always remember that this is your war. We are fighting for you, and everyone is dying because of you."

"So, if you have concerns in your heart, you shouldn't be perfunctory or evasive, otherwise this concern will always be with you. You need to give a definite answer to me and to yourself."

"Do you wish me to lay down my blade and show mercy to my enemies?"

Solandelle trembled, and the confusion and struggle in her eyes became more intense.

She unconsciously clasped Kino's hand, getting tighter and tighter until the back nails almost sank into his skin.

In the end, slowly, her body relaxed, even though the degree was small, she could still feel her shaking her head.

A dangerous smile appeared on Kino's face. He lifted Solandelle's long platinum hair with his hand, and sniffed it against the hair that exuded the fragrance of laurel flowers. Those amber eyes seemed to be burning: "You've finally grown up."

Solandelle closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, the confusion and struggle had faded away, replaced by clarity.

Kino came to the sand table and waved to her: "Come, let's take a look at the situation together."

Solandelle walked over and said with some shame: "I really want to help you with something, but with my current ability, I'm afraid I can't help you with anything."

"It's okay, it's good if you can stay here and talk with me." Kino said while staring at the sand table, "Of course, if you have any ideas, you can tell me directly."

Solandelle thought for a moment, then whispered: "I've been thinking for a while, is there something we're missing in this war?"

Chino: "What do you mean?"

"Reason." Solandelle explained, "Throughout the history books, there will always be a reason for a battle for the throne, such as claiming that there are rebellious ministers in the palace and raising troops in the name of 'cleaning up the side of the king'. Or claiming to be orthodox, Claiming that the current king is not in the right position, and marching to conquer."

"The reason is righteousness, and righteousness is very important. This is an explanation to our own soldiers and subjects in the territory. But we have not played any banner so far, and we have not occupied the commanding heights of morality and truth. This is what I am worried about."
