Chapter 411 Love and Destruction [Dialogue Attempt]

[What kind of person do you hope our children will become? Chou Ningji? Are you listening? Are you listening? ]

"Yes, yes..."

[I hope the baby in my belly is a happy little kid! Hahaha! Running around in Bailing Mountain every day! As happy as possible! As carefree as possible! How wonderful! What do you think? ]

"it is good……"

[Hey! Why are you so worried? I tell you, as a father, you must love him as much as you can! Do you understand?]

"I know, I know! I will be the father who loves his child the most in the world! Right?"

[No, let me make this clear first. If it's a girl, you have to treat her well! Dress her in the prettiest clothes! Feed her the most delicious flower cakes! Girls have to be spoiled even more! Got it?]

"I know, but you may have forgotten one thing..."

【whats the matter? 】

"Her mother is not a girl who likes to wear beautiful dresses. Maybe she doesn't like to wear them either. Like you, she is a heroine..."

[Maybe... How do you know that I really don't like wearing pretty dresses? Besides... I hope my daughter is pretty and doesn't have to go through so much fighting and killing. It's not good. When she is born, the war should be over... Then, we can have a good rest as a family...]

"Yes...I will..."

[No! What if it's a boy? I don't even know what boys like... Should we give him a sword? Or... something else? You're his father, you must know what boys like, Ning Ji, Ning Ji, are you sleepy? ]

"No, I've been listening. If it's a boy, I just hope he's happy... Boys don't need gifts, they need guidance..."

[Heh, are you saying that girls don’t need guidance? What if they learn bad things? But boys who are naughty need to be properly disciplined… If he doesn’t listen! I will beat his butt until it blooms!]

"Wow, I will definitely protect him behind my back. You play the role of the strict mother and I play the role of the kind father. It's not impossible..."

[Humph, you will definitely dote on your son. No matter how you look at it, he is the only son of the Ning family, a treasure! ]

"Even if she is a girl, she is the only child of our Ning family... It's nothing... I will still spoil her to the sky. I just think that boys should not be treated so harshly. If he is very fragile, he must need one of us to protect him, like a white face and a red face? My mother has been strict since I was a child. At that time, I hoped that my father could come forward to protect me... Um... Do you know?"

【Know what? 】

"I am very grateful that my mother was so strict with me. She made me never rely on my father. When I grew up, I always understood that I needed to do everything by myself..."

[Oh...I see...I am actually annoyed with my dad...he is always nagging me...he always tells me that girls shouldn't do this or that...But at least, I am so strong, and I have never relied on him.]

"If it's a boy, I hope he can still be like his father, that is, me, and be able to be self-reliant and strong, brave and strong in the face of all things, and not be crushed by difficulties. Even if the war ends in the future and peace comes, he will still be like this and face every day with a smile..."

[I don’t understand… how the war will end… but I will definitely make it end… let our children live in a tomorrow without war… I hope that when my children wake up, there will be no smoke of war, but blue sky and white clouds that they can see every day…]

"I also hope that……"

[Think of a name... Girl...]

"Girls... well... girls are called... long..."

[Eh... Can't girls have the last name Ning? ]

"Then the surname is Ning...Yu..."

[Jade...what? The king ordered jade? ]

"Yes, Yurou? How about Rou, which means tenderness? I think she is as precious as jade, and has the tenderness of a girl..."

[A bit plain...Are you serious? Ning Yurou?]

"But I think it sounds pretty nice...really...don't you think so?"

[Okay... Ning Yurou... what about the boy? ]

"For boys...just call them...Ning...hmm..."

【Um? 】

"It's actually hard to think of a boy's name... because it has to be three characters... According to the Ning family's genealogy... it should be three characters... I remember..."

[Three words are just three words... How difficult is that for you? How about I take the boy's name? ]

"You come up with it... Fine... But can you really come up with a good name? I remember the instructors said that you basically don't listen to the lectures..."

[Tsk... You dare to look down on me... My name is Ning Aotian? ]

"what?"

【How domineering! 】

"No... Ning Aotian... will be envied by the gods..."

[That...is called Ning...Xunlong? ]

"..."

[Ning Aodi? ]

"..."

[Ning...Erdan?]

"..."

[That...is...Ning...Oh no...it really won't work...]

"How about naming it after the place where we first met? It will have some commemorative significance..."

[Okay... Then call me! Ning Feng!? But it's two characters... It doesn't seem to work. Didn't you say that the family tree has three characters? ]

"Yes... Ning Feng... Ning Feng... Ning Yufeng? Wang Dianyu..."

[Ning Yufeng? It doesn’t sound nice, it’s hard to pronounce… Yufeng? Yufeng? Yufeng? Yufeng]

"Which one is with?"

[You know a lot... any word will do...]

"Ning Yufeng...how about the '羽' in '羽'? Feathers can symbolize the sky and freedom. It is a great blessing for a boy to be free..."

[Okay... Then call me... Ning Yufeng... Little guy... Now you can either call me Ning Yurou or Ning Yufeng... Does it sound good? ]

"Whether it's a boy or a girl... I like them all..." [Humph, you keep saying that... If it's a boy, you'll definitely be happier than a girl, that's for sure... After all, you're the young master of the Ning family...]

"This child will also be the young master of the Ning family in the future..."

[Look, you already assumed he was a boy... Really...]

"Then... I don't know what to call a girl from the Ning family... Ah... Young Master of the Ning Family... Young Lady of the Ning Family?"

[Heh... you wish... if it was a girl, I would never let her touch these things... it's not necessarily the same for a boy... if it was a boy, this is something he must go through, Young Master Ning... actually... I really hope that my child can stand majestically on Bailing Mountain, how majestic would that be? Right? ]

"Am I not majestic now?"

[Not impressive... I think you are always like this... You are pressing on my hair... Move over a little...]

"it is good……"

[I always feel that... you are... stupid... I'm not saying stupid, you're just too weak... you're the kind of... nerd, you know? Nerd! ]

"Nerd... I'm not a nerd... I just... need to be like this... You and I are both at the Tianzi level. After so many years, you must know that I'm not..."

[No, you just... you have to be reasonable in everything... they can't beat you... why do they need to talk about courtesy before force...]

"No, you are not me... naturally you don't understand... I need a name to take action... Wutongsi will not obey the orders of an unknown person, I can't be a rogue like you... You can make everyone listen to you obediently, that's because you are strong enough, but you don't have strong enough reason. Your reason is just that you are strong enough, which is not enough. You need to be strong and reasonable at the same time, so that they can follow you wholeheartedly. The people of Wutongsi are all arrogant geniuses, it is definitely not that you are stronger than them, they will listen to you..."

[Oh… this is such a mess…]

"No, this is very important... Take the Duke Longxu of the Principality for example. As long as he is on the front line for one day, the morale of the Principality will be high. This is not only because Duke Longxu is strong enough, but also because he has enough prestige... Remember that time at Baiyu Pavilion? If it weren't for him, General Li would have beheaded the sergeant. When Duke Longxu stood there, General Li had to give him some face. Although we are fighting a war, those who have experienced it know that such a war will eventually end. During the negotiation, it will also give the other party a way out..."

【I don't understand……】

"It's just...others want to know why you do this, but you can't explain it, so they will think you are a scoundrel and look down on you from the bottom of their hearts...it's that simple...no matter how much you pressure...it won't make this contempt disappear...on the contrary, it will become more and more intense...leading to a rumor that is unfavorable to you, and the team you lead will be defeated...any one of your own people may come to surrender to the enemy with your head, and then you will be deserted by everyone..."

[Why me? I would never do such a stupid thing... I'll beat you to death!]

"Awoo... I mean, this kind of thing is very complicated... It's not as simple as you think... I can't do things unreasonably, I can't punish or reward anyone in Wutong Division at will, and I can't lose my temper, and I can't kill innocent people indiscriminately. Even for the enemy team, their rebellion requires me to have enough prestige to stabilize the morale of the army."

[Yeah, I get it... General Ning is so good at speaking and fighting, he's really amazing...]

"Actually, the most important thing I came back for this time is to tell you that I may have to live in the military camp for a long time..."

[I knew it... I might as well not have given birth to this child... I would have been so happy to follow you to the front line...]

"It is precisely because of this that I dare not take you to the front line... Although you are strong enough to fight with me, you don't know the importance of the enemy. If you really injure too many enemies and arouse the anger of the people, peace will be even further away..."

[You are so weird... Why do you want to fight and ask for peace... I really don't understand... But of course I hope there will be no war... I sincerely love peace. ]

"That's the best... I certainly believe you... But peace will take some time... We need the crystal ore from that mountain. It's a very rare resource, and His Majesty doesn't want to let it go... I guess it will be ready when I come back next time..."

[Just go ahead... I won't stop you... You're still thinking about treating the people of the Principality well at this time, what if His Majesty finds out? ]

"I am the leader of Wutong Division... His Majesty will not do anything to me... At most he will give me verbal criticism... I am kind to the people of the Principality, Lord Longxu will definitely see it, and the casualties of this war will be minimized. Believe me... When the time comes for negotiations, even if I lose the ownership of this mine, Lord Longxu will definitely thank me..."

[Are you sure that Longxugong is a good person? No, I mean... Longxugong... will really negotiate with you? ]

"Of course, although Longxu Gong is from the ancient dragon clan... his stance is to protect the peaceful coexistence between the various clans... over the years, it's like brothers fighting each other, so the balance among the dragons is particularly important... otherwise, if they really kill each other... it will definitely be a catastrophe..."

「That is indeed very important... You have only come back once in such a long time... I think it is already very bad... If there are continuous wars, I may not see you once a year...」

"If there are no other powerful tribes to mediate... the consequences will be disastrous... this is what I am most worried about... Lord Longxu is already old, and there are not many tribes willing to mediate... The mountain gods are dying out... I am afraid that future wars will not be as simple as just fighting for a mine... that must be a nightmare, and I hope that future will come later..."

[When you say that... I feel like the dragon race is so stupid... Why... do they do this? Can't they just live their lives peacefully? Why do they have to care about the disputes between other races like this? ]

"Because... I actually thought about this too... As a powerful ancient dragon, Lord Longxu did not hesitate to run around for peace, and even prevented conflicts of all sizes... Even when he was powerful, he would be exhausted. I don't know what motivated him to persist... Then I thought... Maybe, there are people in this world who want to completely destroy the world, and naturally there are people who want to protect this world. They love this world, so they are willing to pay for it... That's all..."

[Giving my whole life... is all...]

"Perhaps, that's it... that's all..."

【…】

……

[Ning Ji...Do you love this world or hate this world? ]

"..."

……

"I have no idea……"

[Okay, I understand...]

"what do you know?"

[I know what my husband has to deal with... and I'm proud of him... What do you think? Do you think I'm right? My husband?]

"Of course my wife is right."
