Located in the center of the capital city of Serel, the Square of the Kings Monument, where statues of the immortal kings of Serel stand in the past, was chosen as the place for dialogue between Serel and the Morning Sky Island.

Minister Serel, who is responsible for advancing the peace talks, does not know the reason why His Majesty chose this place. This level of dialogue should have been held in a higher-level royal palace.

Judging from the temples dedicated to many Serel gods not far away, does His Majesty Narea think this means the ancestors share witness and the gods learn from each other?

There was no time to ask for these details, because the Lord of the Dawn said "the sooner the better."

After working hard all day and night to decorate the palace next to the Monument of the Kings Square, they couldn't wait to send an invitation to Dawn Sky Island.

"Have everyone dispersed in this area?"

"Following your instructions, they have all been dispersed."

This meeting is a tightrope walk for Seler. Although the domestic people are afraid of the destructive power of the Dawn Sky Island, they are also gritting their teeth at the Sky Island that threatens their right to exist on this land.

If there is an impassioned collective demonstration during the meeting, or if some idiot suddenly shouts insults, all their efforts will be in vain.

"The specifications of the banquet..."

"Lord Cade, there is no doubt that we require the chefs to purchase the food to the highest standards."

"Is the rumor that the Lord of the Dawn likes seafood true?"

"It's absolutely true, that's what the Sligo shipowners in the harbor say."

Cade finally relaxed. As a scholar, he was rigorous and meticulous in his work.

Although the location of the conversation was still too simple in his opinion, he could not protest to His Majesty at this moment. After all...the Lord of the Dawn was here.

Seeing that three of the four Lords of the Morning appeared, and they appeared together with the envoys, not relying on force, Cade's pounding heart calmed down a little.

Consistent with the description of the shipowner in Sligo, the four Lords of the Dawn are known to be gentle and approachable. As long as they can maintain a low profile, they will definitely promote dialogue.

but……

After seeing the appearance of the three lords up close, Cade was still shocked.

Too young. According to rumors, the Dawn Lords are already middle-aged like themselves, but they look similar to Selel's energetic young generation. Time seems to have favored them, and they are not willing to leave a little time to wash away.

The vicissitudes of life and twilight.

Knowing from his companions that the Lord of the Dawn does not like red tape, and is even less interested in lengthy etiquette, Cade canceled the fancy greeting ceremony originally planned, and omitted the firing of the salute to receive distinguished guests, striving to be straightforward.

theme.

This approach indeed won the praise of the three Lords of the Morning, but Cade then heard a question that made him sweat a little.

"Where is your Majesty the Emperor?"

The original plan was for His Majesty Narea to greet the Lord of the Dawn in person, but the lobbying of the main war faction made him have concerns, and finally chose the stupid decision of letting Cade and others take the front line.

Oh my god, if the Lord of the Dawn really wants to go on a killing spree, is it really safe for His Majesty to hide?

Your Majesty, who is usually wise, cannot understand such a superficial thing at this moment.

"Your Majesty's young daughter suddenly fell ill today. I love my daughter very much, so there may be a slight delay. I hope the Lord of the Morning can forgive me."

"It doesn't matter, I am also the father of two children, and nothing is more important than taking care of my children." Lu Yu said, "This is the same for parents."

"Sure enough, as the rumors say, the Lord of the Dawn is wise and gentle. I am grateful to the Lord of the Dawn for your majesty's generosity."

After prevaricating this critical question that made Cade sweatdrop, he immediately ordered the chefs to prepare the banquet. It was almost dusk now, and it was the time for the banquet. It didn't matter whether His Majesty could be there, as long as he could serve in an atmosphere where the guests and hosts were enjoying themselves.

Lieer was seeking a glimmer of hope, and he was willing to bear the sin of temporary transgression.

"Mostana shouldn't have the habit of having a banquet while talking, right?" Lulu joked.

Cade quickly stood up and answered: "Selier has developed maritime transportation, and Sligo is the largest number of Mera merchants who visited Selel. From their mouths, we know a lot of anecdotes about the Dawn Sky Island."

Now that he had opened up the conversation, Cade simply bowed heavily to the three of them.

Lu Yu picked up a piece of bean sprouts that were as white as jade with chopsticks and pinched off the heads and tails for Lulu, and picked out a piece of fresh fish belly for Sera. Then he put down his chopsticks and spoke slowly.

"We are not your majesty. It is a bit heavy to do this kind of ceremony before eating."

"If you can forgive Serel's past crimes and give us another chance to correct ourselves, it would be okay to turn into a statue and kowtow to the morning sun forever."

The ministers who followed Cade left the table one after another and followed his example and knelt on the ground.

The serving servants and the chef who was serving the dishes didn't know what was going on. They just thought that this was a major event related to Serel. They were infected by the atmosphere and knelt down tremblingly, not daring to raise their heads.

For a time, in the brightly lit main hall, only Lu Yu and three others, who were sitting at the head, were still enjoying the table full of delicacies unhurriedly.

"The special envoy who came to Morning Sky Sky Island asked me to give Selel a chance to argue and clear his grievances." Lu Yu peeled another shrimp for Selah and Lulu, and at the same time took the bottle filled with soda from Lulu,

Filled the bowl for himself and Sera, "But you don't seem to be arguing, but you seem to be admitting."

Serra asked: "According to your statement, you have admitted that Serel committed unforgivable crimes in Mostana over the past hundreds of years, right?"

The people around Cade carefully touched his body with their hands.

This question is like a boulder, enough to make anyone breathless.

Cade turned a blind eye to his companion's kind reminder. He took a deep breath and used the courage of his life: "Yes... I admit it."

"So, you also admit that the Serel people were expelled from Zolegos and wandered around, and they also committed unforgivable evil, right?"

"me……"

Thinking of thousands of Serel people, Cade lowered his head: "I admit it too."

Everyone behind Cade was trembling and no longer dared to raise their heads.

Lu Yu played with the wine glass in his hand playfully: "Do you know what you say here will lead to something?"

"Yes, the great Lord of the Dawn... I had already thought of it before he came."

Seriel is a race blessed by God. They have never done anything wrong. What is wrong is only those despicable races who are jealous of their wealth, rights, and wisdom. These races unite and rack their brains to exclude them, just to prevent their excellence.

Be recognized by the world.

The long period of displacement, the expulsion from Zolegos, the continuous conquests of various tribes in Mostana, and even the arrival of the evil apostle Dawn on the Sky Island today are all to wipe out their best ethnic group.

Almost every Selerian believes so firmly.

Serel is not wrong, they are the victims of suffering.

As a scholar, Cade knew that those were all pure lies, but he was powerless to prevent these lies from becoming the consensus of the Serel people, and he did not dare to become an outlier among this ethnic group.

If possible, he would also be willing to be a timid, cowardly, trend-seeking person, enjoy the benefits brought by Serel's massacre of foreign races, leisurely close his eyes, plug his ears, and spend his life as a fool.

But, Dawn Sky Island is coming.

The two direct hits of [Red Flash] shocked him. As the secretary of the army, he clearly knew the power of Dawn Sky Island, and also understood the meaning of the fate of Sky Island, which Mera praised as "no fight, no demand".

Does quibbling really make sense?

Could it be that the traces Selel left on this continent have not allowed the Lord of the Morning, known as the Sage, to glimpse the truth?

To deceive the sage and let his wrath descend on this land again, causing all Serel people to completely lose the land they depend on for survival and wander again, Cade cannot do this, which is called a stupid move.

Frankly, beseech the Lord of the Dawn, and hope that the sage who has always been kind and gentle will look at the tens of millions of Serel people in this land, and it is a clear move to have compassion.

Cade knew that many people could see through this layer, but... no one wanted to be the first to bow their heads.

If Serer is lucky enough to survive this disaster, will the people of Serer really be grateful to him for kneeling down?

Cade didn't know.

But he knew that some things had to be done by someone.

"You will become a traitor in the hearts of Serel people. Is it worth it?"

"I just don't want the child to feel ashamed after a few years because his father became a coward." Cade sighed, "I am his role model... I taught him how to protect himself wisely before, and now I want to teach him...

What is responsibility."

When it comes to children, Lu Yu, Lulu and Sera's eyes are a little wandering.

The envoy who hurriedly entered the hall saw this scene and was embarrassed for a while. Then he found Cade who was still kneeling on the ground and whispered.

"Your Majesty is coming."

Hearing the news, Serel ministers stood up one after another and prepared to welcome him.

There was a roar like a salute in the distance, and the slight vibration caused ripples in the wine in the glass.

"boom!"

In a brief moment that took less than the blink of an eye, the floor of the hall shattered like glass, and scorching waves of air surged from bottom to top.

The bottomless pit below the main hall instantly swallowed everyone present. Before the servants on the edge realized what happened, another deafening explosion came from the bottom of the pit, followed by a burst of gray-brown, choking

People, pungent smoke and dust spewed out.

"Cough cough cough..."

They coughed violently and tried to escape, but the mist seemed to take away their strength. Many of them only ran a step or two before their eyes darkened and they fell to the ground.

Fortunately, he rushed to the closed door, enduring the pain of the smoke corroding his skin, the surviving servant struggled to open the door to escape.

In the night, countless brilliant streams of light are like shooting stars, piercing the sky from very far away and converging.

There was no time to say a word of beauty, no time to escape. In the next second, all the servants who escaped were drowned in the gradual bombardment of magic.
