Chapter 1311: Chapter 1282: Sulin’s Reflections
The war is won!
For the various races in the eastern part of the minor world, this is undoubtedly an inspiring piece of news.
Lately, the Demon Clan has been like a dark cloud pressing down on them, constantly weighing on their nerves.
And in their minds, all they thought about was how to deal with the Demon Clan’s enemies next.
It could be said that even in their resting and sleeping hours, their minds were on how to achieve victory in the war against the Demon Clan.
Though most of those pondering these questions had little impact, there were always a few who played a crucial role in the war.
Sulin was one of them.
The war was indeed won.
Those from other races who once sided with the Demon Clan also surrendered one after another. As for the original Demon Clan, after suffering heavy casualties, they scattered and fled, completely collapsed, and no longer posed a threat to them.
At least, as long as the alliance exists, those demons would only be slaughtered if they dared to show up again.
But for Sulin, it wasn’t something particularly pride-worthy.
Though he was the commander of the Allied Forces and one of the few top experts in the entire camp,
he didn’t feel very proud.
Because he knew very well that the victory of this war was not brought about by him.
It could even be said it wasn’t closely related to him.
"Commander Su, what’s the matter? Why do you seem a bit down, are you not satisfied with tonight’s celebration party?"
During the celebration, someone curiously glanced at Sulin, noticing he was in a daze, and couldn’t help but laugh and ask.
"It’s nothing, you all enjoy." Sulin raised his glass to the person and then smiled and nodded.
At this moment, a voice sounded beside Sulin.
"Stop thinking about it."
Sulin turned his head in surprise and found that standing beside him was none other than the Elf Queen, Patricia.
"Your Majesty, why are you here? Aren’t you usually not interested in such gatherings?" Sulin looked at Patricia, who had transformed back into her loli form, and curiously asked.
"Indeed, I’m not interested." Patricia nodded, picking up a glass of juice from the table. "But I didn’t have anything to do for now, so I came to take a look."
"You’re still thinking about him, aren’t you?" Patricia couldn’t help but ask, seeing Sulin’s troubled expression.
Sulin shook his head and then wryly nodded.
"As the commander of the Allied Forces, I can do whatever it takes for victory. But I never expected our victory would be achieved in this way." Sulin said helplessly.
"I also didn’t expect that guy to be so..." Patricia thought for a moment but found herself at a loss for words to describe a certain someone and gave up shaking her head.
On the day the war ended, Li Chen approached Sulin and Patricia, proposing a condition to them.
"Handing over the Demon Clan to you guys shouldn’t be a problem, right?"
"If Black Sword doesn’t show up, these ordinary Demon Clans are no match for us at all." Patricia stated directly.
"Alright, I’ll take Black Sword with me, and you guys can handle the rest, how about it?"
"Wait, when you say take him, do you mean leaving with him or..." Sulin couldn’t help but ask.
Li Chen’s expression was very calm. "He’s my brother, and he’s in trouble now, so I need to help him deal with it."
"This..." Judging from Li Chen’s appearance, covered in wounds, he evidently went through a brutal battle, but he was still standing here, proving he won.
In other words, Black Sword is currently in his hands.
To be honest, letting Black Sword go was something he was reluctant to do. After all, for all the Allied Forces’ leaders, their biggest enemy remained Black Sword.
Compared to him, other Demon Clans could almost be considered insignificant.
"No unnecessary reasons, now there’s only one choice for you." Li Chen looked at Sulin, knowing the decision lay with this man.
"I’ll take Black Sword. The Demon Clan is yours." Stretching his shoulders, Li Chen calmly said, "Of course, you can also choose to attack me and then go find my brother and take him down. That is, if you have the strength to do so."
Sulin’s gaze flickered with hesitation. To be honest, he was tempted.
If both were in their prime, he naturally wouldn’t dare to act. But now Li Chen had won, yet he seemed half-crippled, and if he could defeat Li Chen, then Black Sword...
"However, I must remind you, even though I’m not in the best state now, taking out a few with a big roar and wiping out hundreds below Earth Level is still not a problem. So before you make a move, think carefully." Li Chen slowly drew the Demon Blade, its glow somewhat dimmed.
Sulin went through a fierce internal struggle in his mind.
Ultimately, he relented.
Li Chen left with Black Sword, whereabouts unknown.
Meanwhile, the Demon Clan, without the command of a main general, crumbled under the joint attack of Sulin and Patricia.
Eventually, the Allied Forces claimed victory.
But both Sulin and Patricia knew the key to this war wasn’t them.
It was that mysterious man, whose intentions no one could fathom.
Sulin wasn’t even sure if he had rejected Li Chen’s proposal, whether that man would have gone mad and attacked the Allied Forces.
Even after thinking about it for a long time, Sulin had no answer.
Looking at Patricia beside him, Sulin couldn’t resist asking this Elf Queen, who shared similar experiences with him, about the doubt in his heart.
"Are you talking about that?" Patricia held her juice, her young face bearing a hint of maturity that didn’t match her apparent age.
"Honestly, I don’t know either. Though our Elf Race should be familiar with him, truth be told, I can’t figure him out." Patricia admitted.
While chatting, they had quietly set up a soundproof barrier around them, making it impossible for others nearby to hear their conversation.
"However, even if I can’t guess his thoughts, I can tell a person’s intentions from their eyes." Patricia nodded with a bit of pride. "This isn’t an elf talent; it’s my talent."
"So what did you see in his eyes at that time?" Sulin couldn’t resist asking.
"Killing intent."
Patricia shrugged. "If you hadn’t agreed back then, he really would have started killing."
Upon hearing this, Sulin exhaled deeply, a relieved smile appearing on his face.
