Chapter 21 The Heart That Pursues Strength
Is this your country? Yu Lai, yes, there are so many new and interesting things here that I've never seen before. Don't tell anyone about what's happening here.
"My Lord, you have returned. These are my two wives. Build them a house. But Your Lordship, this is unworthy. We should build him a palace. No need, that's too extravagant. One house is enough."
Okay, we'll get right on it. How many days of intimacy did you spend together?
Hey, Sand Demon, do you miss me? You're my benefactor! From now on, you don't need to call me by my name, just call me by my given name. So, what's your name? Yu Lai, I understand. Yu Lai.
What brings you here? Are you staying in your tribe for a few days? Okay, I understand. I'll treat you well. Sorry to bother you.
Xue'er, what's wrong? Did you forget to give me something? No, I didn't. Then why aren't you giving it to me? You can keep it with me for now. You don't need it right now anyway. You don't want to keep it all to yourself, do you? No, I want to collect it now.
Alright, mission complete. Reward: Morax's Peak Strength Experience Card. One minute.
How many more years? The Nielsen will soon be extinct. Hmm, about eighty years. I understand.
The protagonist has returned in 80 years. He's traveled far and wide. A few more years? Fendnir will be destroyed. I understand. Let's go now.
Ancient Mondstadt was indeed very cold. Thankfully, Venti blew away the snowstorms of later generations. Otherwise, the future inhabitants of Mondstadt wouldn't have been able to withstand it. It's so cold! Snow, quickly get me a cold-weather shield.
I understand. I'll get you one right away. After several days of travel, we finally made it to the top of the snow-capped mountain. All the creatures we encountered along the way were incredibly resilient to the cold. They actually managed to survive in this kind of weather.
Who are you? Who are you? Answer my question first. Yu Lai. Why are you here? I'm a wanderer. You're not welcome here. Get out of here! I understand.
What should I do, Xue'er? He won't let me go up. I don't know either. But you can just quietly watch Fendnir's demise, can't you?
Okay, that's the only way. Or another way. What way, Xue'er? Kill them all. Isn't that just another form of annihilation? I'm clever, aren't I? It's chilling. Xue'er, how could you be so cruel? It's terrifying.
I was too naive after all. On the Tree of Imaginary Numbers, a world dies every day. Hundreds of billions of beings die in each world. But I don't want to. No, you have to think about it whether you want to or not. This is a necessary part of your growth.
Forget it. You don't have any fighting talent. And you're not strong enough either. You'd better stay behind me. Heh.
Sigh. After all, people in our world don't kill openly. I've never seen it. It's a peaceful society, but things are turbulent in the shadows. I can't really comment on it. But it's good that I don't see it, isn't it, Xue'er?
Yes, let's quietly wait for them to die. Okay. One day passed. Two days passed. Three days passed. Four days passed. Today is the day of the destruction of the ancient kingdom of Fendnir.
Look, the Heavenly Nail has descended. Which is stronger, the Heavenly Nail or the atomic bomb? To be precise, the Heavenly Nail is more powerful. An atomic bomb can only grind away a thin layer of the Earth's surface. But the Heavenly Nail can actually grind off a whole piece of skin.
Humans are fragile. Without great power, they are helpless and at the mercy of others. Everyone desires great power. With power, they act recklessly. Looking at these humans, one wonders what mistakes they've made. Have they touched the abyss of despair? Or is it something else entirely?
That's all unknowable. All I know is that with sufficient power, I can protect anything I want to protect.
Yu has witnessed the destruction of two ancient kingdoms. What are your thoughts? Like I told him: They were too weak. If they had the strength to defeat Heaven's Law, none of that would be a problem.
Well said. I will do my best to improve your skills. Thank you, Xue'er, it's so good to have you.
