Offer your allegiance to Chaos!

Now, there is no doubt that he is the final victor in this war.

But Ashe didn't show a look of rejoicing or joy. He looked at Ms. Sicily for a long time, pondered for a long time, and finally, let out a long breath, and stretched out his hand to her:

"No, not prisoners, now, we should start negotiations."

On the side, the teacher showed an expected faint smile, but Ms. Sicily showed a look of astonishment on her indifferent face. She blinked and hesitated: "Negotiation? What do you mean?"

"There will be no winners in this war from the very beginning. What I want to do is to bring you to the negotiating table."

Ashe shook his head, feeling the ups and downs of the Book of Khorne in his mind, opened the book, and scanned the dazzling array of innate abilities one by one, even though he had expected it, he still took a breath of air—— The power of the book of abuse is stronger than he imagined, and Ms. Sicily did not show her strongest strength until the end, and she still kept more than one hand.

This is a power that is enough to make any force on the continent of Terra fear and envy it. If Ashe keeps it and uses the backhand and resourcefulness left behind in the past, he can even make it in just a few months. Control the supreme power of the entire Syracuse.

This is exactly what Ms. Sicily said. The moment she handed over the Book of Khorne, she was defeated and became a prisoner. Even with the huge Forbidden Army of Syracuse behind her, it is impossible for her to come back The best hope is to add one or two stumbling blocks to Ashe at most.

But Ashe didn't intend to keep the Tome of Khorne.

"teacher."

He looked at the teacher, looked at each other, and both of them nodded. The next moment, the teacher came to him, and Ai Xi pressed her hand on her forehead, and she turned into a golden spot of light, and merged into Ai Xi again. Xi's body.

But this time, it was not in the Book of Slaanesh, but in the Book of Khorne.

On the Book of Slaanesh, the handwriting of the Spirit of Chaos No. [-] disappeared, but appeared in the Book of Khorne, and the suffix of the Roman numeral No. [-] no longer existed, and was replaced by [Spirit of Khorne].

Ashe summoned the teacher again, this time, what appeared in the void turned into a blood-red spot of light.

After the teacher's body was condensed, she squeezed her hands, tilted her head, and smiled: "I don't seem to feel any difference."

"Is this the so-called possession?" The Sicilian lady who witnessed all this had a complex expression: "You really did what she said, if you want to return the Book of Khorne to me, you will not be afraid..."

"If what the teacher and Amy said is correct, if you get the Book of Khorne possessed by the teacher, your excessive killing and possessive desires will be restrained, and you should not take excessive actions again."

Ashe closed her eyes and felt the remaining connection with the teacher, "Besides, the Spirit of Chaos came from me. Although it was transferred to the Book of Khorne, the connection seems to have not been completely broken. The teacher should still obey my orders." ...Although you are not sure how far you can play, this is also a kind of restriction for you, even if you fight again, you may not be able to win."

After a pause, he continued: "Besides, I believe that since you have just chosen to hand over the Book of Khorne to me in exchange for my awakening, then you will never force me to come to the Such a situation, isn't it?"

He walked up to Miss Sicily, stretched out his hand, and shook her lightly.

Ms. Sicily did not speak, she pursed her lips lightly, feeling the familiar power fluctuations in the palm of her hand.

The bloody radiance soaring into the sky reappeared, and when the Book of Khorne returned to Ms. Sicily, she closed her eyes, feeling the newly established link in the spiritual world, and opened her eyes again, looking at the teacher.

The silver-haired woman who was exactly like her smiled cheerfully and waved to her.

【In the future, please take care of me】

Sensing the fluctuation of the spirit of Khorne on the other side of the spirit, Ms. Sicily's eyes softened slightly, and she sighed, "Indeed, as you said, it feels...as if there is some barrier blocking the most extreme ones." The emotions are the same, but in the blink of an eye, the way of looking at the whole world has changed a lot—it turns out, unconsciously, I was really eroded by this book a lot.”

Great.

Seeing the visible change in Ms. Sicily's eyes, Ashe breathed a sigh of relief.

"but……"

But Ms. Sicily changed the subject, and her eyes became solemn again: "I have not lost my love for you. The only thing I care about now is the issue, which is the core of this so-called negotiation—yes, I am now After losing the war, I can only give up the pursuit of Texas and Lapland, and I can only admit the fact that you fell in love with a phantom, and I can't deprive you of the Book of Slaanesh... In a sense, I have lost all the initiative, I can no longer ask this question with an order, but only with an inquiry tone, but I hope you can understand that this question is related to everything in this negotiation."

"——You, are you going to return to Syracuse with me?"

After the words fell, the air became a little heavy again, Amy and the teacher looked at each other, Laplande and the angel looked at each other, and then everyone turned their eyes to Ashe.

Ash was silent.

He quietly looked at Ms. Sicily, and from the corner of his eye, he glanced at the teacher with the same silver hair.

Many images flashed in his mind, and many voices echoed in his ears.

It was just a few tens of seconds, but it seemed like half a century had passed.

It was just a sudden question and answer, but it seemed to be brewing in my heart countless times.

Finally, he nodded slightly.

He smiled:

"—Well, let's go home."

Chapter 128 Epilogue

When the word "go home" in Ashe's mouth fell into his ears, a smile finally appeared on Ms. Sicily's solemn face.

She nodded slightly.

"Well, let's go home."

On the side, the people who were waiting with bated breath also breathed a sigh of relief.

At this point, the incident finally came to an end.

However, the follow-up negotiation of detailed rules was much more troublesome than Ashe expected.

Everyone came to Wei Yanwu's mansion together, and started negotiations for nearly five hours in the conference hall.

The problem is mainly on the Texas side. At the end of the war, she had promised not to interfere in the internal affairs of Syracuse, and she would lead the pure-bloods to withdraw from Syracuse after making peace with Ms. Sicily. Although Ms. Sicily did not Nod directly, but also acquiesced to Texas' choice to some extent.

But after the Spirit of Chaos took possession of the Book of Khorne and suppressed the spiritual erosion of Ms. Sicily to a certain extent, she changed her mind.

"The fact that the Pure Blood faction was able to infiltrate the city of Rome shocked me a lot, especially after the possession of the Chaos Spirit, I seriously reflected on it. I did have some problems with the way I dealt with the opposition forces inside Syracuse. .”

Ms. Sicily frowned and said: "Today, the elite main force of the Zionist Alliance has been wiped out, but several leaders except Albert are still on the run. I can choose to kill them all, and deal with the people inside Syracuse." Another purge from the remnants of the Zionist Alliance...but I'm not going to do it."

"Yes, ending war with war is the only way to achieve peace, but after the war is won, blood and death can hardly solve the problem, as now, after my successive purges, Rome is more and more like a city On an active volcano that may erupt at any time, I can suppress it once, twice or even a dozen times with pure violence, but one day, either when I make a mistake or when I grow old, all the strength I have accumulated before They will explode in doubled amount.”

"So, I'm going to discuss another cooperation with Texas and the pure-blood faction about how to deal with the remnants of the Zionist Alliance... I want to seek a different path."

Hearing this, Ashe, Laplande, and Archangel looked at each other in blank dismay (the teacher and Amy had already returned to the two books at this time), and were quite shocked by the great changes in Ms. Sicily.

Still, it's clearly a good thing.

As a result, Can Angel connected the phone of Texas again. During the more than three hours of negotiations, the two parties and Ashe, who was mediating in the middle, had a lengthy discussion on this issue, and a set of plans were put forward and then overturned. .

Ms. Sicily is a good player in iron-blooded dictatorship, but it is the first time for a big girl to be in a sedan chair. Even though the spirit of chaos suppresses the desire to kill, even if the starting point is to find a different path, she still habitually thinks about it. Solving problems with knives often comes up with scary words like "kill [-]% of the radicals first", "or kill [-]% of the radicals", "it's okay to kill [-]th."

In the end, under the persuasion of the sweaty Ashe and the persuasive Texas, Ms. Sicily finalized the final plan: kill the real leader of the main family of the Restoration Alliance, but keep her family members under house arrest in Rome, and imprison the Restoration Alliance A backbone of middle management, but forgiving lower executives.

Afterwards, the Syracuse government officially came forward to register the official status of a transnational mercenary military organization and security company for Texas and the Pure Blood faction, symbolizing the recruitment of the remnants of the old party, and then the two parties reached a cooperation, and the Pure Blood faction One side gradually absorbed dissidents who were dissatisfied with the rule of the new government but did not want to resist extremes, completing the "purification" of Syracuse's interior.

All in all, it can be regarded as building a bridge between the new government and the old party.

At the same time, this plan can be regarded as a disguised compromise of the friendship between Ashe, Texas, and Lapland.

According to this plan, Texas will stay in Rome for a long period of time (not less than three years), and Laplande will also serve as the personal bodyguard of Texas and the security minister of the new pure-blood organization. For Ashe, although she can't get along with them 24 hours a day like before, Ms. Sicily would not mind taking time to have a cup of coffee with them every afternoon.

The possession of the Spirit of Chaos, the suppression effect on the Book of Khorne, is really stronger than imagined...

Ashe glanced secretly at Ms. Sicily, who was reviewing the negotiation draft, and breathed a sigh of relief.

This also solved another major worry in his heart - although Ms. Sicily never mentioned it, but looking at the scale of military expansion and war preparations visible to the naked eye in Syracuse in recent years, she is obviously preparing to launch a foreign war, no matter what the cause of the war is The induction of the Book of Khorne is still for the glory of Syracuse, blood, turmoil and death will be inevitable.

Ashe didn't want to see such a scene, but he couldn't protect himself before, let alone persuade Ms. Sicily to stop, so he had to avoid talking about it.

But now, there is no need for him to talk about it. Seeing how Ms. Sicily is lost in thought from time to time, she will probably change her mind. convince her.

Ashe felt more relaxed than ever.

However, when the negotiation came to an end, something unexpected happened to him.

Ms. Sicily made a request, hoping to let Ashe temporarily stay in Longmen or Rhodes Island for half a month, and not return to Syracuse with her and Laplande.

This request puzzled everyone present, and Ai Xi was even more astonished. He thought that Ms. Sicily could not wait to take him home with all kinds of indescribable things, and he was thinking of persuading her to stay a few more days to deal with Wei Yanwu and others. As for the aftermath of the multi-party forces, I didn't expect the reality to be the other way around.

Regarding this issue, Ms. Sicily did not want to speak in public at the meeting. She dragged Ashe to the next bathroom with a complicated expression, and hesitated for a long time before telling the truth.

"I want to calm down first and handle my relationship with her properly."

Her tone was a little depressed, and she pointed to her head: "I just discovered it too, that phantom... your teacher, after possessing the Book of Khorne, although it played a great role in restraining my desires, it also brought a lot of pain. For example, I can't escape her eyes no matter what I do... I want to spend a while looking for a way to block this kind of contact, or if I really can't block it, I have to do some self-psychological construction. Before that, I can't be alone with you, otherwise, I'm afraid I can't help it..."

Now Ashe also understood, his expression became subtle, a little dumbfounded, but he still agreed.

After all, it's only half a month.

——At this moment, Ashe, who had such a relaxed idea, obviously did not expect what kind of dramatic old people and stories he would encounter in the next half a month.

(Volume [-], End)

(The second volume is the story of Rhine's life. It tells the reunion between Ashe and her two former guardians, Selia/Ms. Hemer. It is more daily and "daily". Looking at the written outline, I can't help but fall into deep thought ——I hope that the second volume of this book will not be blocked. If it is blocked, I will send it to p station, sis and 01bz. Don’t forget to support it enthusiastically)

Chapter 1 Olivia Hemmer

"Ms. Olivia Hemer, this is the second time Miss Ifrit has caused a small fire in Rhode Island this week."

Rhodes Island, doctor's office, a girl wrapped in a blue-black coat with only a few strands of snow-white long hair exposed, sitting behind the desk, looking at the woman in front of her, shaking the post-disaster damage assessment report in her hand, and sighed helplessly tone.

"...I'm so sorry, Doctor."

Similar words, this Li Boli lady named Olivia Hemer has said it countless times.

This is a rather petite woman, about 1.5 meters tall, she might be mistaken for a girl from the back alone, but if you look carefully from the front, there will be no such misunderstanding—the one wearing a round frame On the clear and beautiful face with glasses, there is a serious expression that does not change all the year round, and there is an intellectual and bookish atmosphere between the eyes. Just being stared at by those eyes can't help but remind people of their school days. The nervousness when the teacher rolls the roll.

Light brown bird feathers are dotted on the top of her short dark brown hair, and the uniform of the Rhode Island Medical Department on her body has been modified, similar to a windbreaker, more like an owl's wings, draped over her petite body, adding a rare touch majesty.

However, this lady whose petite appearance and solemn temperament formed a strong contrast, now has no room to show her majesty. She took off her glasses and lowered her head to wipe them, her face was full of exhaustion and helplessness.

The white-haired girl looked at her and sighed.

Olivia Hemmer, a former senior director of Rhine Life, just came to Rhodes Island Medical Department two weeks ago. He is knowledgeable, skilled, serious, meticulous in his work, and embraces the thoroughness from the entire Terra Continent. The great vision of expelling ore disease is a match made in heaven with Rhodes Island. In just one week, it has won the recognition and appreciation of the entire medical department and even Rhodes Island.

For such a lady, the doctor is very happy to meet her on such a sunny afternoon, have a cup of coffee, talk about trivial matters, the past and ideals, instead of criticizing her with a superior attitude and forcing her to show Such an embarrassed look.

But... But who made Hemer not only Hemer, but also bound a super troublesome brat with him?

The white-haired girl couldn't help but look at the report in her hand again.

Operator Ifrit, a former Rhine life experiment subject, a patient with severe ore disease, has a violent temper due to the erosion of the brain by the origin stone crystal, and her strong adaptability to the origin stone skill. Things blazed up.

Hemer is Ifrit's guardian, or to put it more bluntly, her adoptive mother. When she joined Rhodes Island two weeks ago, the salary she offered was to allow Ifrit to obtain the most advanced ore disease medical conditions. ——If it wasn't for this child, as a senior executive of the multinational giant Rheinland Life, she wouldn't have "succumbed" to a small place like Rhode Island and served as an ordinary deputy director of the medical department.

Rhodes Island is thirsty for medical talents, so naturally happily agreed to Hemer's conditions, but unexpectedly, the treatment of Ifrit was far more troublesome than imagined, not only because of her ore disease, which is rare in mainland China The severity of the disease lies more in the troubles caused by the patients themselves.

——Ifrit, you are a complete brat.

Just like this time, Ifrit didn't follow the instructions of the medical staff to take a rest on time, sneaked out of the bedroom during his afternoon nap, ran around Rhodes Island, somehow got into the experimental animal breeding room, and was caught inside The little white rabbits and mice raised in captivity were so excited that they went crazy and started a fire.

Fortunately, Rhode Island's fire protection measures are quite complete. The automatic extinction device was triggered instantly, and the security personnel arrived in time. No personnel or experimental animals were injured or injured. Only two doors, a wall and a table of not-so-valuable equipment were damaged. The value is less than [-] Longmen coins.

But the problem is not the value, but... This is already the third fire caused by Ifrit after entering the island. As far as the mothership is concerned, fire prevention is the most important thing. How can there be a thousand days to prevent thieves?

"Ms. Hemer, I know that when Dr. Kelsey signed the agreement with you, he specifically stipulated the treatment of Miss Ifrit. She must not be restrained, imprisoned or restricted in any form, and she should be given as much freedom of movement as possible. The space and freedom of…”

The white-haired girl sighed and covered her forehead, "But I have to say, if this happens even once again, Rhodes Island's management must properly restrict Miss Ifrit's range of activities, and we will try our best to Open up more space for her to recuperate, but... well, sorry, you should know what I mean."

"...I understand." Hemer lowered her head gently, she finished wiping her glasses, put them on again, and said in a tired tone: "Actually, I have already thought that this time will come...you don't have to apologize to me, In any case, this is the fault of Ifrit and I, if there is another time, then even if she is locked up, she will not have any complaints."

"……Ugh."

The white-haired girl wanted to comfort Hemer, but she didn't know where to start. After all, the current situation is indeed "self-inflicted". Needless to say, Ifrit, a brat, even Hemer is also very responsible .

To put it bluntly, it is impossible to discipline a child as long as he is willing to be ruthless. She has never seen Hemer reprimanding Ifrit with her own eyes, but she thinks it will not be so severe, at least it will not cause Ifrit Psychology of fear.

She has read Ifrit's file, and knows that the child has an unspeakable tragic past, and can understand the reason why Hemer can't be cruel to her, but she understands it. As the nominally supreme decision-maker of Rhodes Island, she Just follow the rules and regulations.

In the end, she had to try to change the subject from another angle.

"Actually, you don't have to blame yourself too much. Rhodes Island is a relatively special company. There are many troublesome people among the operators, and there are also many bear children. Ifrit is at best a small trouble."

The white-haired girl pretended to be relaxed and said with a smile: "Compared to the super brat who is coming back today, facing Ifrit, I, Amiya and Dr. Kelsey are much more relaxed. "

"The one who is coming back today?" Hemer asked suspiciously, "Is he also an operator from Rhodes Island?"

"That's right, and he's the biggest and worst operator ever." The white-haired girl shrugged and said, "You don't know what shocking things he did last month and last month Cough, let me tell you secretly, don’t go out and spread the word, this is the black history of Dr. Kelsey, before she drove away that bear child, she stipulated that Rhodes Island is not allowed to discuss these things anymore..."

Next, the white-haired girl balabla uttered a long series of words with great interest, roughly explaining the previous Kelsey aphrodisiac and the illegitimate child incident.

And Hemer's original serious expression became a little subtle as the outrageous incident unfolded.

Although she has only been working in Rhodes Island for two weeks, she has already figured out the interpersonal network on the island, and she is also very clear that although Dr. Kelsey only has the name of the director of the medical department, he is the actual doctor of the entire Rhodes Island. supreme leader.

On weekdays, when chatting in the medical department, even the most daring Warfarin would keep quiet when mentioning Kelsey, and would look left and right if she complained, for fear of being hanged on the bridge.

Such a situation has already made Hemer form a serious image of Kelsey, who is almost a dictator, in his heart.
