"You ... Want to bear all the burdens? Want to fight Imperial Tiger and Third Scars with your group?"
Looking towards Julian, Ark smiled. Despite having a smile on his face, it was not a friendly smile at all. Instead, the smile on his face contained a hint of ridicule and provocation.
"I don't care. At the very least, the Silver Cross contains "humans" who still care about other "humans!"
"You really seriously want to challenge those two groups with those weak youths who can collapse due to a gust of wind?" said Ark coldly.
"We'll do it!" Julian Strictly.
Ark got up then opened both of his hands while putting on a provocation expression.
"Even if you talk like that, I won't waste precious materials to make an evolutionary potion and sponsor you.
If you want to do it, do it yourself! Let me see ...
Whether that fire-like determination could destroy the order of the food chain!"
"Hades ..." murmured Joseph.
Hearing Joseph's words, Ark immediately pointed towards the man. With a cold look, he said, "You better not interfere in this matter, Joseph."
Ark's blatant threat clearly made Joseph feel somewhat doubtful. Yet he suddenly recalled some figures who had sacrificed themselves for a better world. Taking a deep breath, he finally stood up.
"I have great respect for you, Hades. But this time, I have to agree with Julian.
What the Imperial Tigers and Third Scars were doing was already overkill. I want to stop them. Although it is uncertain whether the person arrested is guilty or not, such excessive actions must be stopped.
Perhaps sacrificing the small good for the greater good is not at all suitable for us."
The answer surprised Ark. He took a few steps back, lowered his head then covered his face with his left hand. After a while, a terrible laugh was heard in the room.
"HAHAHAHA!!!"
A murderous intent emerged from Ark's body. It instantly made the people in the room shudder in horror. They immediately felt nervous until their bodies were petrified. Can't move.
Lisa immediately got up and stood in front of the Ark to block it.
"Your atmosphere is getting unstable, brother. Calm yourself."
Ignoring Lisa, Ark muttered as if talking to himself.
"Interesting ... Really interesting ..."
"Is this justice?"
"Is this hypocrisy?"
"Is this naivety?"
"..."
A pair of jet-black eyes turned blue, glistening coldly while watching the people in front of him like a predator observing its prey.
"Then let's make a bet!"
"Fifteen ... I suspect that the number of "awakeners" in the two opposing groups is around fifteen! So I'll give an evolution potion to fifteen people.
Then I want to see. Whether the 15 chosen people can really be trusted as heroes. Or the opposite ... escape because of their greed!
If I lose, you won't have to pay anything for the potion I gave you!
I will admit that there are still good and not greedy people. People who can be trusted and considered as heroes."
Looking towards the Ark, Julian took a deep breath.
"What if you win."
"KILL!"
Ark answered briefly. He then showed a vile grin on his face.
After what I've done, I'll kill you and chase those who have fled.
I'll send people to look for clues.
As long as someone is hiding something ...
KILL IT!
KILL IT!
KILL IT!
I WILL KILL AND MAKE THIS CITY A FIELD OF DEATH.
LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT LIFE IS CRUEL!
LET EVERYONE UNDERSTAND THAT THIS WORLD DOES NOT NEED NAIVETY LIKE THE WORLD BEFORE IT.
IF NO ONE UNDERSTANDS, ELIMINATE EVERYONE IN THE CITY AND GO TO THE OTHER CITY!"
Ark looked right into Julian's eyes.
"How, Hero? Are you sure you're really heroes? Or is it just a child playing with the word justice?"
"Sacrificing the whole city. Brother, you—"
"Shut up, Lisa. Shut up when two adults are talking."
Ark glanced back at Julian.
"If you're scared, better—"
"GOODNESS IS STILL IN THE WORLD! WHAT IT TAKES IS TRUSTING EACH OTHER!"
Julian passed by Lisa and stood in front of Ark with a stern expression on his face. Taking a deep breath, he again said.
"EVEN IF MANY PEOPLE ARE MORE SELFISH, IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT NO ONE CARES ABOUT OTHERS!
SACRIFICING THE ENTIRE CITY?!
DON'T JOKE WITH SOMEONE ELSE'S LIFE, B-DICK!"
Julian punched Ark in the face.
Ark did not respond at all, only receiving his punch. He looked toward Julian's resolute eyes with an expression full of surprise.
"I, JULIAN RESPONDED TO YOUR CHALLENGE!
BUT NOT TO SACRIFICE THE WHOLE CITY.
IF INDEED THE PEOPLE I BELIEVE BETRAY, I WILL CHASE AND KILL THEM.
I'LL PAY 100 TIMES THE PRICE YOU WANT.
I'M GONNA DISPERSE SILVER CROSS. DAY ...
I WILL CUT MY OWN NECK BECAUSE IT IS SO NAIVE AND CANNOT ADAPT TO THIS WORLD!"
Hearing that, Ark's body trembled. A smile cannot disappear from his face. He immediately took out a knife and cut off his palm. The young man inhibited regeneration and threw a knife at Julian.
Receiving the knife, Julian was shocked. He then looked at Ark who extended his hand and finally understood what he meant.
Julian also cut off his palm. After that, he shook Ark's hand.
Thus, their agreement was agreed.
In the end ... This winter will be one of the most important and darkest winters in the new history of mankind.
