He looked at Planck, the woman's slender figure was reflected in the golden eyes.Said softly.

"Because I'm always fighting, and my fighting determines too many things. And when people expect me because of it, whether it's respecting me because of it or insulting me because of it, for me Said it was something that would only interfere with my decision."

"I'm not a star, a politician, or anything else. With the exception, I'm in the most special position in the world. I'm Nicholas."

"I won a battle and saved a village. Then the people in that village will have expectations of me. If I save a city, then the people in that city will have expectations of me. I The more people I save or influence, the more people will have expectations of me. And if they influence the people around them, the scope of this expectation will become bigger and bigger.”

"But what effect do their expectations have on me? Can they participate in the war against the Houkai or can they give me a buff in the battle between me and the Herrscher? In addition to promoting my name, They can't do anything except to increase this expectation."

"Five hundred years ago we did not hide the collapse of the common people, because we needed them to feel the threat of the collapse, and we needed them to have such expectations for the [idols] we created to maintain our rule. But early We discovered the problem with this strategy five hundred years ago, and finally all the news about the Honkai was hidden in legends under the blockade of all walks of life.”

The man shook his head slightly.

"Guess why?"

"..."

Plank didn't speak, just looked at him silently.And Gong Ming didn't seem to want her to answer anything, but continued after a slight pause.

"Because the people are getting harder to be deceived..." He smiled wryly and shook his head.

"Wisdom is becoming more and more enlightened. Although the blooming of ideas will intensify the progress of society, the overall will of mankind will become more and more chaotic, and it will be more difficult to form a unified will. People begin to despise authority, start to use rebellion as glory, publicize their individuality, pursue Freedom. This in itself has nothing to do with it, but it also means that we cannot always control the right to educate and speak to people like we did five hundred years ago. Although public opinion is generally in our hands, it is no longer possible It's all in our hands."

"However, Honkai is getting stronger day by day, and the crisis we face is always intensifying day by day."

"..." Planck was silent, but gradually understood what he meant.

"If five hundred years ago we chose to hide the truth of the world in the dark, then the current situation does not allow us to expose the truth of the world to others."

"If we tell everyone in the world now that you are actually living in a world that is about to be destroyed, we are fighting to the death, but we don't have much chance of winning now, maybe a Herrscher will appear tomorrow Cause a flood and submerge several countries. The day after tomorrow a self-proclaimed god will emerge. Raise your hand and it will be a nuclear explosion. Snap your fingers and the world will be destroyed. Guess what will happen?"

"..."

"So I don't care about their insults at all." Gong Ming said calmly. "Because if I lose, they don't have a chance to insult me ​​at all."

"Expectation is really a word with little taste here, because I don't care about their insults, and I don't need their praise, so in order to avoid these troubles, everyone should not look forward to it."

"...You are changing concepts secretly."

Plank was silent for a while, shaking his head to express his refusal to accept Gong Ming's words.

"From the very beginning, the [expectation] you mentioned and the [expectation] I mentioned are not the same thing."

"No, it's actually the same thing..." The red-haired man shook his head.

"Do you think that I accept Nancy just to marry her, have a child, go back and see her and the child when I have time, and be busy with my battle outside when I don't have time? Such a simple thing? ?”

"Isn't it?" Plank raised his eyebrows.

"Of course not." Gong Ming smiled, as if laughing at her innocence. "Have you ever thought about what if one day I die?"

Plank froze.

"I can protect you now because I'm alive, and if I were dead you wouldn't be worth revenge. But if one of you started a family with me and had a child. You know the world would How many sets of eyes are there on this child?"

"The last ethnic group with my bloodline has been fighting for the destiny for more than five hundred years, shed an unknown amount of blood and made an unknown number of sacrifices." He said softly.

"As for the last bloodline... do you guess why I got into this state?"

"..."

Plank was silent, and after a long while, he put the oranges in his hands on the plate on the bedside table and got up from his seat.He walked out the door without saying a word.

With a "squeak", the door closed.

Gong Ming rested his head on the white pillow, and the white light fell from the ceiling.There were delicate reflections on his pale face due to injury.

Now, he was alone again.

"..."

In the quiet room, the expression on his face also slowly faded away.

"You are really... hypocritical."

He murmured into the air.

[It's hard, isn't it? ] This is the question Planck asked him.

Stumped... isn't it?

How could there be so many ridiculous excuses in this world, even if he found a suitable reason today, or even a more suitable reason, but no matter what he said, it could not change the core problem.

He, Gong Ming, was cowardly on this issue, that's all.

Perhaps Planck really saw this, so he gave up the idea of ​​continuing, turned and left.

"Why do you need a reason?"

He raised his arm to cover his eyes, blocking all the light, and his vision fell into darkness again.

"Nicholas, you really..."

"Are you afraid?"
