Another World: My life is on the hook!

Chapter 2544 What if the future does something to you

Besides the painter himself, the only person who can move freely in this world is probably...

far away.

A figure dropped from the sky, revealed its true form, and looked at his back with complicated eyes.

He was a young man wearing a long robe engraved with patterns common in the Violet World. Compared to the last time he saw him, he seemed much more vicissitudes of life, but Lin En recognized him.

Lin Meng in the western border.

One of the Four Kings of Hell.

Previously in hell, he had led the jailers into conflict with their City of Night.

Lin En also learned about the Violet Lord's past from his memories. In the old world, he ranked second among the seven kings of Violet. He was also the most trusted and relied-upon deputy of the Violet Lord. After the rebirth of the old world, his loyalty seemed to have never wavered.

Lynn didn't reply, but just looked at him sideways.

He didn't know what he was doing here, but he didn't have any good feelings towards these old subordinates of Violet.

"I have no ill intentions. I am deeply sorry for what happened before. The circumstances at the time were special, and for the sake of the overall situation, I had to take action. I hope to receive your forgiveness for everything that occurred during that conflict."

His eyes were complicated.

"Can we talk?"

……

……

In the blue world, the two stood in the breeze.

The same face, as if once upon a time, in that distant old country, he seemed to have stood beside that figure for a moment, overlooking the world.

But he knew they were not the same person.

"I will resolve my internal affairs, but I hope that you can also resolve your internal problems."

Linn raised his head and said.

Apart from that, he didn't think there was anything else worth talking about between them.

He had long been able to see that the painter had always been laissez-faire towards them. Unless there were major decisions to be made or they were needed to participate in the war, she would not manage them at all.

“This is a difference of philosophy.”

Lin Meng took a deep breath, his age and haggardness were visibly evident, but he hid it in his eyes, not wanting others to see the decision in his heart.

"Maybe I shouldn't say these words, but if I don't, then there really might not be any chance."

His eyes were depressed.

"Actually, you should understand."

"Our internal problems aren't simply corruption. Every one of our former subordinates who has been able to follow the mistress all the way to this day has actually been tested by time."

“Many of us weren’t corrupted by the outside world, but… they actively embraced that corruption.”

Linn said nothing.

But as he said, he had actually guessed this a long time ago.

Their internal problems are huge and special, so special that they are almost impossible to solve.

"They've all made the same mistakes I made before."

Lin Meng said with a slightly bitter voice.

"Many are loyal to our king's ideals, but many are also loyal to... our king as a person. Do you understand the difference between the two? A single word of difference can make the world of difference. And precisely because of this, sometimes it's hard for us to say it's a mistake."

In the midst of chaos, endless years pass by.

Many people died in time.

Many people fall halfway through their lives because they cannot withstand the backlash of disorder.

The Palace of Neptune has disappeared.

The old soldiers of the empire have also died.

Most people who have survived to this era rely solely on the unshakable obsession in their hearts.

This obsession has supported most of their lives.

There were no problems in the past, because whether it was loyalty to the Great King's ideals or the Great King himself, it was all the same, because everyone believed that their Great King would one day return to the world and guide them.

"But many of us are increasingly confused as to whether the calamity that now looms above us is the Great Lord we have been waiting for."

"If that is my king."

"If our king has fallen, should we still follow him and fall into the evil path of the end?"

Countless chaotic lights danced in Lin Meng's eyes.

That's the problem.

"The hostess never gives us the result of this problem."

He said with some self-mockery.

"But to be honest, even if they gave it to us, for those of us who have held on to our faith for a lifetime, some things can't be changed so easily. Just like if the hostess told us that he was our great lord and wanted to take us to the end of the world, I would definitely not agree, just like the other way around, the same goes for them."

But in fact, who can give the real answer as to whether that disaster is their lord?

Lynn was silent for a long time.

They had always avoided addressing this issue before because, in a sense.

If that disaster really recovers.

The Violet Lord is the Lord of the End.

Because after he actually took control of that disaster, the fusion had already begun. The struggle between them was the ultimate confrontation between humanity and chaos, and this was why those nightmares had to eradicate him, because he, the raven, had become the last anchor of the great ruler's humanity.

"In fact, as long as he can come back, all the differences can be resolved immediately."

Lynn said with a side eye.

"Isn't it?"

Lin Meng smiled bitterly and said:

"But the great lord has not returned for countless years."

And when time is eternal enough, then this eternity is also a kind of death.

So before he came back.

This problem can be said to have no solution.

Everyone has an obsession in their heart that they believe is correct, and this obsession has lasted for countless years and it is no longer possible to change.

"If there is a war among you in the future, what will you choose?"

Linn looked up and asked.

Lin Meng lowered his head and clenched his hands in his sleeves little by little.

"I don't know. I don't want us to fight to the death over this issue, but if that day really comes... then we will have to take action."

Lynn turned her head and looked at him again.

And what a drama this is.

Because he knew very well that in that ancient old world, he was the first person to have walked out of that wrong path. Whether he was loyal to that idea or loyal to himself, he had been going further and further on the latter path.

"I see."

Lynn gave him a reply.

"I forgive you. You don't actually need to apologize to me. I would be very happy if one day in the future we could fight side by side."

He didn't stop anymore and walked away.

Lin Meng looked at his back from afar, and finally, he said those words before he left.

"Lynn! The mistress hasn't always been like this, do you understand? She hasn't changed. She's always been waiting for the return of the Great Lord. Her humanity has always been there, but she's been hiding it. Because on this dangerous road, if you don't try your best, if you don't become a true painter, how can you survive in this era!"

He knelt down in front of the figure from a distance, bowed his head and knocked on the ground, and drops of crystal tears wet the ground.

"If the future does anything to you."

"Please forgive me, please... please don't do that to that girl..."

He couldn't utter another word.

Only the falling tears soaked the straw curtains drop by drop.

The huge fate rumbles over us, like a dark cloud covering the sky and the sun, pressing people so that they can't breathe. Just like everyone has their own choices and their own obsessions that they can't let go of,

And is this what one can never ask for in a lifetime?
