The woman in white said this in the conference room with four seats located at the end of the "Dobe" fortress.
Wei Feng nodded silently, with no expression on his face, as if what the other person mentioned had nothing to do with him.
There were only two of them in the room. A pot of brewed tea lay safely in the center of the square table, but neither of the two people in the room had the intention to touch it.
"Thank you." He said these two words calmly, cleared his throat, and looked at the seat covered with black cloth, "So what about the moment?"
"Leia's dying blow severely injured him, but for the 'King of Shadows', it only takes ten days to heal the injury." Shuiyun supported his cheek with his left hand and replied calmly, "We need to wait until he
Is the recovery complete?”
"No need." Wei Feng shook his head and said, "Without that uncontrollable guy, the plan might go more smoothly. Anyway, the next mission won't have anything to do with the "Shadow Department"——"
A steady sound of footsteps approached from outside the door. Wei Feng turned his head and looked at the door that was pushed open. He stood up with Shui Yun and saluted the visitor.
"Lord Chief."
The middle-aged man wearing a black robe and a serious face looked around the room for a moment, and then his eyes fell on Wei Feng's face.
"I know about Setsuna." He chuckled, "It's a pity for your fellow countryman. Originally, if he didn't betray the organization, it wouldn't be a bad idea to let him take over as the "King of Shadows"."
However, it was impossible for Leia to agree - even just staying in "The Pale Hand" was something that was difficult for him to accept. Wei Feng thought about this, but his expression did not change at all, "There is no need to mention the dead. We have already
Everything is ready, just waiting for that moment to come."
"It's best this way." The man as the leader nodded, "Our 'allies' have also completed their preparations, but don't let them... and me down."
Allies? I'm afraid not necessarily. Wei Feng sneered in his heart, when there is a common enemy, the other party is a temporary 'ally'. As for the future, I'm afraid it will depend on who will fall out faster.
"In short, you are responsible for ensuring the march route of the 'allies'." He turned his head and looked at the woman in white, "And the task of guiding the people will be completed by you, Shuiyun." The man pondered for a moment and then added.
, "Remember, as long as we win, all your long-cherished wishes can become a reality."
Wei Feng nodded silently, indicating that he had no problem. Shui Yun was silent for a moment, then spoke softly to the man.
"I understand, Sir Leader. But, with all due respect..." She considered her words, "Excuse me, what are you expecting in return... this time?"
The man in black robe smiled.
"I think you know." He said, "If not, how can I fulfill your wish? - Your Highness Shuiyun."
The woman's face seemed to be stiff for a moment, then she bowed slightly and said no more words.
"It's time for me to go back." The leader, the man, broke the silence again, "This is a battle that will determine the future of "Pale Hand." I hope you two will do your best."
The door was closed again behind him, and the footsteps gradually faded away. It wasn't until the moment that she couldn't hear them anymore that Shuiyun finally relaxed. She leaned on her own white chair and cast her eyes towards Wei Feng, with a look on her face.
A hint of confusion, and questioning.
He understood what Shuiyun wanted to say, but he couldn't give any answer.
"What are those little girls doing?" He changed the subject.
"I'm not sure." The woman in white shook her head and gave him a somewhat surprising reply, "Anya and the doll returned to the alliance, and the two girls from the northern part of the alliance... went to my hometown.
.I don’t know...their real plan.”
"In any case, they are 'variables' that need to be paid attention to." Wei Feng rubbed his nose, "Please, Shui Yun."
The woman in white lowered her head, looked at her neck, and responded softly. Wei Feng followed her gaze and found a round pendant hanging there - in his memory, this woman seemed to have never existed before.
I have never worn such jewelry before.
"What is that?" he asked casually.
"...a gift given to me by a 'friend'." The woman in white replied calmly, then stood up from her seat, "Goodbye. If there is any other news, I will send someone to convey it to you."
"Wait a moment." Wei Feng turned his gaze to the other party, but couldn't think of a good way to express it for a moment, "Don't forget... the reason why you have been working hard so far."
The woman in white didn't answer anything, but took steps and left almost silently.
Wei Feng stared at the empty corridor, slowly closed the door, took out his usual cup, picked up the teapot, filled it up, and drank it all in one gulp. He exhaled softly and sat back on his chair.
.
Regarding Leia's death, he was not as calm as he had shown before. After all, the only person who had a similar experience to him and understood him to a certain extent... was probably the young man who was a "half-demon".
No matter Suiyun, Setsuna, Sora or the leader of the "organization", they all hold completely different ideas from him. As for the subordinates of the "Dobe"... I am afraid it is difficult to understand his persistence. It is not just for revenge.
, he firmly believes that the demon clan must be completely defeated with sufficient strength in order to achieve long-term peace for mankind.
Even though he took different paths, even if he transferred part of his hatred for the demon clan to the other party, the "fellow countryman" who was a few years younger than him seemed to have never given up on his original idea. Even this time, I'm afraid,
He was also willing to risk his life alone for a certain 'possibility', and then died.
Don't be kidding, he thought. The so-called peaceful coexistence is by no means wishful thinking. As long as there are still monsters that hate humans, his mission is to fight back those hatreds exponentially. He is not worried about his own
His will is wavering, just as he firmly believes that he has never killed anyone by mistake.
What deserves more attention is Shuiyun's state - he is not sure what the "King of Mist" has experienced during this period, but he can feel a few changes in the other party; and... in Xin'an City, the one sitting on the throne,
The emperor seemed to have no unusual changes.
Just like hundreds of years before, the leader of the "Pale Hand" was concurrently held by the left prime minister of the empire; and today's "King of Darkness" is the right prime minister of the empire. In other words, two positions under one person in the empire
, all belong to the "organization" he is in. If "Pale Hand" has different intentions and shakes the foundation of the country, it doesn't seem that difficult.
The alienation already existed. Wei Feng didn't know the plan of the "King of Darkness", but he could guess the leader's intention - but so what. He didn't care at all what the name of the person sitting on the throne was... as long as that
People can achieve their expectations.
As for the result of failure, he was already alone and had nothing to lose.
"I will avenge you. I will not let go of any of those monsters who were responsible for destroying our hometown... Leia."
