Chapter 518 Explanation
Chapter 518 Explanation
A soft smacking sound broke the silence.
Everyone looked at the originator of this voice that was out of tune with the atmosphere.
Qi Yan licked his dry lips, completely ignoring the atmosphere, and complained to himself:
"Brother Chesper, you are such a great leader of the Knights, don't you know how to offer a glass of water to the guests?"
"Uh, I thought you hated water."
Chesper quickly stood up and went to get the kettle to pour water.
Qi Yan slapped Tolan's thigh hard and said angrily, "Who told you that I hate drinking water? Didn't you see that I was so angry that I deducted Dester's salary because I didn't drink water just now?"
Desiree: ?
"You...I..." Chesper felt a little overwhelmed, "I am a little confused about your character. You are really as unpredictable as the rumors say."
"If you don't understand, why don't you ask?" Qi Yan scolded.
Chesper paused as he handed over the glass of water.
Qi Yan snatched the water cup and drank it all in one gulp.
Then he let out a long breath, with an expression that showed he had finally come back to life:
"Really? You almost made me thirsty to death. Remember, if you don't understand something, just ask directly. People have mouths not just for eating."
After being reminded twice by Qi Yan with such obvious intentions, Chesber completely understood what Qi Yan meant.
He looked at the still silent Maenna and said with a wry smile:
"I thought that with the relationship between us, there was no need to say many things."
"fart!"
Qi Yan interrupted and said, "You don't have the skills of the Doctor and Silver Gray, so don't pretend to be profound here.
No, even SilverAsh knows how to hit the ball straight!
The person I hate most in my life is the Riddler, except for my old lynx!"
Ma Enna also turned her head and looked at Qi Yan.
He didn't know who SilverAsh was, but he knew the Doctor very well, the man who manipulated the war and the fate of Casimir, sitting firmly in the hotel and in control of the overall situation.
Even if you are that kind of person, do you need to talk frankly with your friends?
Mauna's eyes dimmed a little, and she sighed in her heart that only she could hear.
"Chesber, I don't think I need to explain anything." Mayenna finally chose to make a change, "But if you want to listen, I can tell you once."
Chesper tightened his grip on the kettle:
"Tell me why you didn't save Serena."
"Because I can't do it..."
Ma Enna closed her eyes and whispered about her inner torment: "I clearly realized that I had no way to save her. I knew she was innocent and was just dragged into the conflict between many forces.
The Supervisory Council, the Chamber of Commerce, and even the National Council representing Casimir's law, there were thirteen people who were tried in that trial alone.
Even if I try my best, even if I expose all the injustices, even if I fight to have the injustices I see written into the law, I still cannot bring any change to the status quo. "
"So you can just remain indifferent?!"
Chesper could hardly control his anger. This was the first time he yelled at Mainna so out of control.
"I can't do that..."
Maena still didn't open her eyes. "My brother is missing, Margaret is caught up in the vortex of knight competition, Maria is still a child, my father passed away, the Linguang family... I can't do anything."
Chesper was still full of anger, but he didn't ask any more questions.
In fact, his anger was not directed at Mahenna.
Manna finally opened his eyes. His eyes were as calm as a pool of stagnant water. He looked at Chesper and said in a gentle but firm voice:
"Tell me, Chesper, what are you doing?"
Chesper turned his back to the group and placed the kettle on the table.
His voice was filled with suppressed anger:
“I will attack the Leitanian troops sent back from Zvonek City, and take the opportunity to let the expedition knights enter Zvonek City, so that those who are still immersed in fantasy will understand that war is inevitable.
Casimir needs real violence to awaken, a war that will shake the world!"
"Chesber...you need to wake up." Maenna retorted, "War can't bring anything, it will only make people suffer.
I know you are angry, you are angry at this country that has forced everyone into despair and has been stuck in the dark quagmire for a long time without any way to struggle, but I believe you don’t want to see people displaced because of your actions. "
Chesper turned around and said word by word: "I said, war is inevitable."
"I will stop you before you reach the point of no return." Mainna also did not give in.
Facing Maenna's oath, Chesper just smiled regretfully:
“You have seen everything that Casimir has been through. It only takes a little provocation for other countries to take the initiative to start a war.
Ursus' ambitions are obvious to all, but we cannot ignore Leithania either. They have been recuperating for a long time since the fall of the Witch King's Tower, and I have seen with my own eyes the preparations they have made for war.
I know that the moment you appear here, all my plans are doomed to fail, but you can stop me, can you stop others too?"
"I can't do it, but I believe someone can do it." Mainna said this with great determination.
"You mean Russell?" Chesper said sarcastically, "She gave in to Leitania and seemed to be putting pressure on the Business Federation, but she only took action against a few companies without any pain.
You must know that the Chamber of Commerce has long begun to interfere with the knights of war. More and more knights are trying to sell their glory and even throw themselves into the merchants' ambition to gather armed forces.
Do you know what I saw in the old leader's notes when I took over this expeditionary knight order?
One after another, the deals between the Knights of War and the Merchant Union, one after another, the dirty things that are unknown to the public!"
Mahenna did not deny any of this.
Although he was depressed, he did not lose his judgment. Since he chose to give up his identity as a ranger and return to Casimir, he had witnessed too much in the past ten years.
Chesper took a step forward and continued:
“Maenna, Russell avoided Leitania and chose to use Ursus as proof that Casimir is not inferior to other countries. I cannot blame him for this, but you and I both know that Leitania will not give up.
Their troops are still stationed at the border. They have never really accepted Russell's surrender. It's just some face and insignificant interests, which can't satisfy Leithania's growing ambitions. "
“But it shouldn’t be now. Casimir is currently unable to resist the invasion of multiple countries.” Mainna reminded.
"Casimir is doomed to fail, but he is also doomed to fail."
Mauna:?
He couldn't understand the source of Chesper's confidence.
Casimir is by no means a war-torn country. In its many years of confrontation with Ursus, it has paid many painful prices and even lost a lot of territory.
Chesper suddenly smiled.
With a bit of reverence and unparalleled confidence, he said firmly:
“Casimir, this country that is silent in darkness refuses to allow those two dazzling beings to leave in peace.
But when war breaks out and a crisis of destruction comes, people will hope they will return, and they will definitely come back.”
Mauna: “……!”
The golden Pegasus suddenly stood up and rushed to Chesper: "Do you know where they are?!"
