In his memory, the little girl who used to follow behind him was now a female general of a country, standing against him.
Ray sighed in his heart; the two had once been in love.
But now, they could only meet on the battlefield.
No, he had always loved Athena and regarded her as his life.
But Athena just doesn’t love him anymore.
Ray tightened the reins, gently nudged the horse, and stepped forward a few steps.
Beside him, a woman in black reminded him, “Your Majesty, be careful p>
“It doesn’t matter.” Ray stood under the city tower and said to Athena on the tower, “Atheny, do we really have to be like this p>
Athena looked at him with a cold expression, even with hatred in her eyes.
She looked down at the familiar and unfamiliar figure under the city tower. Ray’s black robe unfolded in the wind. He was no longer the powerless heir of the past.
The current Ray was the King of Virelda.
He fought all the way to Pidence City for his ambition, not hesitating to collude with Northcold.
The man before her was a stranger to her.
“Ray.” Athena’s voice fell from the city tower, as cold as iced water. “There is no room for manoeuvre between you and me.
“After coming all the way here, how many innocent people have you killed? And now you’re still talking to me about loyalty p>
Ray, under the city gate, suddenly clenched the reins, the horse’s belly was squeezed, and it uneasily pawed its hooves.
He looked at the silver–gray figure on the city tower, the hair beside her temples was lifted by the wind, and the tenderness that Athena once had was no longer on her face.
She pointed the sharp knife at his chest.
“Atheny.” His Adam’s apple bobbed, and his voice was extremely gentle, as if he were afraid of scaring Athena. “As long as you come back to my side, I will immediately withdraw my troops. Everything I have done is just for you p>
“You’re not doing it for me. You’re doing it for your ambition.” Athena interrupted sharply, pointing the spear at him. “For your ambition, you slaughtered 30,000 people in Ramberg.
“For your ambition, you colluded with Northcold, leading enemies into the country. Ray, are you doing it for me, or for yourself p>
Athena’s voice grew louder and louder, and Ray’s heart felt like it was being pricked by needles, the pain suffocating him.
The woman behind Ray spoke. “Your Majesty, there is no need to say more to her. 100,000 troops can attack the city at any time p>

The woman was dressed in black and wore a mask.
Only a pair of sharp eyes were exposed, looking at Athena with hatred.
She waved her hand gently, and immediately dozens of civilians were pushed to the front of the city gate.
These were all civilians Ray caught along the way.
They were men and women, old and young.
Everyone looked at Athena with fear and longing in their eyes.
They kept shouting, “Please save us, save us p>
Athena’s eyes suddenly widened, and those terrified faces deeply pierced her heart.
“Ray, you are despicable and shameless, using the lives of the people to threaten me,” she said.
Ray acted as if he didn’t hear her and just stared at Athena. “I know you hate me, but I never wanted to hurt you.

“As long as you come down, I will immediately release those people and lead the Northcold army back to Ramberg. From then on, we will divide and rule Petanion along the river. How about that p>
“Divide and rule along the river?” Athena laughed, her laughter full of deep sarcasm. “Do you think that Petanion’s land is something you can divide at will? Do you think that the Fouver Pass that Xander guarded with his life is for you to bargain. with? ”
