Knight Asylum

But unlike the Tooth Ghost Clan who must devour human life energy, killing is not a necessity for Orphino. Orphino can kill or not. It is not that Orphino's homicide rate is high, but that the homicide rate of some Orphinos in the Intelligent Brain Group is high. Many Orphinos live the same life as before awakening.

And there is no harm in awakening into Orphino. The mind will not change at all. After overcoming death, the body will evolve and gain power that surpasses humans and monsters.

No one can be sure whether they have the qualifications to awaken into Ophino, but no one wants to be treated as a monster after finally overcoming death.

Of course, this has a huge premise, which is the popularization of the special law for monsters.

Red stared nervously in Rosette's direction.

If the special law for monsters becomes popular, most people in this world will realize how cool monsters are in human society, and Orphino will be judged as a monster...

What will happen?

In the worst case scenario, people who often talk about having a good life in the next life begin to seek death and try to change their identity.

It's exaggerated, but in today's society, it is really possible.

Whether this worst-case scenario will happen really depends on what Rosette says next.

Every word and action of public figures influences public opinion. It may not be the final word, but it will definitely push things in a certain direction.

So far, no public figure has taken a stand on whether Ophio is a human or a monster.

Rosette is not only a jewel in the fashion world with a very pure fan base, but also the daughter of the Enoch Group. As a public figure, she can be said to be top-notch.

Normally, Rosette, who only shines in the fashion world, would never touch upon the question of whether Orphino is a monster or a human being.

"So Miss Rosette, do you think you are... a weirdo, or a human?"

A reporter tremblingly raised the microphone in his hand to break the silence and asked the question that everyone was curious about.

coming!

Reid's heart sank.

Rosette is an extremely self-centered young lady. She doesn't care what kind of social impact her words will cause. Montana's kidnapping made Rosette very unhappy and it can be said to be a psychological trauma, especially now that Montana has been acquitted.

He held a press conference and revealed his identity as Ofinho. It seems like he is going against Montana.

"Am I a freak or a human? Would you look at the sun to see if it's the sun?"

Rosette opened her arms and raised her head arrogantly.

"Of course I am a human. I am different from the phantoms that were born from the remains of the host, and I am different from those guys who were modified by implanting genes from other creatures. Orphino is a human!"

Red was stunned, his eyes widened in disbelief.

The reporter who asked the question also stood there in a daze, holding the microphone.

Everyone thought that the willful Rosette would call herself a weirdo in order to get revenge on Montana, and would say that Ofinho was a weirdo.

Murakami Gorge, standing in front of the door, began brainstorming.

The King of Orphion will make up for the short-lived defects of Orphion caused by over-evolution, making Orphion a complete being. After the completion, Orphion can use and develop his own power more confidently, and even further...evolve.

But this has a huge prerequisite, that is time. Orphinoth needs time to evolve, and the King of Orphinoth also needs time to complete Orphinoth.

If those powerful beings caused the death of King Orphino, then the future of Orphino would be completely destroyed. Those powerful beings were not something Orphino could fight against.

The king needs guards.

But they, the Orphinos, are not qualified to be the king's guards.

Following Rosette's line of sight, Murakami Gorge saw Red.

It's Him

[Yes, it must be him]

[The King's Chosen Guard]

Murakami Kyoer took a deep breath, took a few steps back, closed the door, and said nothing. But the glowing look in his eyes made Zhuomu Yiran's heart skip a beat.

"Zhuo Mo Yilang, I'm sorry, the situation has changed. You can no longer be the president of Zhinao Group."

"Uh... President, do you want Wang to become the new president?" Zhuo Ma Yilang scratched the back of his head.

"No - the Brain Group exists to protect the king. The president of the Brain Group must be the guard chosen by the king."

Murakami Kyoji moved aside and raised his hand to point in the direction of the crack in the door.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhuomu Yilang took a few steps forward and put his face against the crack in the door. There was only one person facing the direction of the crack.

That's Red.

It could only be Reid.

Zhuomu Yilang remembered the noise he heard in the lounge before. Rosette, who was extremely harsh and contemptuous of everyone, acted like an innocent little girl only in front of Reid.

"I'm sorry, Takumi Ichiro, we have to find a way to make this man the president of Zhinao Group," Murakami Kyoji said apologetically, but with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

He was indeed optimistic about Takuma Itsuki and wanted to train Takuma Itsuki to become the new president, but the appearance of Wang changed everything.

If Zhuo Mo Yilang refuses to repent, he will have to deal with him personally.

Zhuo Ma Yilang's expression was a little distorted, because he was trying hard to suppress the urge to laugh and not let his character collapse.

Let Reid be the president of Zhinao Group?

Then he would definitely agree with it wholeheartedly, but if that were the case, wouldn't the personality he has been building up all this time collapse?

The Zhinao Group exists to protect the king, so the guard chosen by the king must naturally be the president of the Zhinao Group.

This reason is reasonable, but not sufficient.

As one of Red's most loyal subordinates, he had to think more, just in case. He had to make Murakami Gorge trust him and feel at ease with him.

"I, I know..."

Zhuoma Yiran closed the door and revealed a smile that was uglier than crying.

Chapter 370: Short-lived Fate

Amid the noise, the press conference ended, and the reporters left in a daze, holding their blank notes. This was a public press conference, and the entire process from beginning to end was saved in the form of video. Before they finished writing the report, people all over the world had watched this video countless times, and everything that needed to be discussed had been discussed.

"My hero? How did I do~"

As soon as she stepped off the stage, no, to be more precise, when she faced Red, Rosette returned to her previous innocent and naive look, making it impossible to associate her with her arrogant look on the stage.

“Ah… um, ha—”

Reid's mouth twitched.

He really didn't know what expression to use when facing Rosette who had just finished her shocking performance.

He...did not discriminate against Ofiino. He couldn't tell whether Ofiino was a monster or a human being, but in his heart, he still tended to believe that Ofiino was a human being.

But Rosette claimed to be the king of Ophienoch and could make up for Ophienoch's short life.

He didn't know how this worked, and he wasn't like Orphino, so he couldn't tell whether Rosette was just talking nonsense or was serious.

The only thing that made him feel relieved was that Rosette did not mention Montana during the entire press conference, nor did she say anything about continuing to appeal.

"Hum hum--"

Rosette folded her arms across her chest and hummed twice, her eyes slightly lighting up.

"Where do you live?"

"No."

"I want to live with you."

"No."

"Hey——" Rosette crossed her arms over her chest and folded her face in dissatisfaction, "Why? I want to live with you!"

"no--"

Red raised his eyes.

He currently lives in Ming Hai's office.

Ming Hai Office is very clean and tidy, but letting Rosette live there would be like throwing a bomb in there. Who knows what it would become. Rather, with Rosette's personality, she would cause a lot of trouble no matter where she lives.

However, with Rosette's personality, she would never give up on such a straightforward refusal. She might even threaten him by continuing to hold press conferences to force him to agree.

Reid was a little worried.

"Mmmm..." Rosette gritted her teeth and stared at Red unwillingly for a long time. When she realized that Red would never agree, she sat down on the ground with a plop and lay on the ground with her hands open.

"Then I won't leave!!!"

"Then I'll have to inform your brother to buy this place," Reid took out his cell phone and prepared to contact Jingtian.

When Rosette heard that Red wanted to contact Li Zaiying, she jumped up, grabbed Red's wrist, and glared at Red with gritted teeth. However, under Red's emotionless gaze, her teeth could not be clenched anymore, and she smiled pitifully.

"Wait! Don't, don't do this - I, I feel a little dizzy, I, I can't breathe..."

"Then go back to the hospital."

"Will you come to see me often? Once a day, one day at a time."

"If you don't cause trouble for the medical staff, I'll go see you," Reid sighed helplessly, scratching the back of his head.

"it is good……"

Rose stretched out her voice unwillingly, and the bodyguards present cast admiring glances at Red. It was the first time they saw Rose compromise to this extent.

After sending Rosette back to the hospital, Red and Qiao came to the rooftop of the hospital. Looking at the night sky, Red let out a long sigh.

Now he suddenly understood why many people like to smoke on the rooftop to relieve stress.

"What's wrong—" Qiao leaned against the railing of the rooftop, tilting his head back, "looking like he's stressed out and wants to take stomach medicine."

"I really want to take some stomach medicine," Reid glanced at the message sent by Yilang on his phone, grinned and lowered his head.

"Now I don't know whether it's going smoothly or... not going smoothly. It's really a headache."

Qiao turned his eyes to Red, and after a moment of silence, he asked in a low voice, "Are you troubled? As a knight, you now have to protect Orpheino?"

Qiao pursed her lips and spoke even softer.

"To you, is Ophino a human being, or... a weirdo?"

"Is this kind of thing important?" Reid raised his head and met Qiao's eyes.

"I don't know either. I just thought of this question and asked it." Qiao turned his eyes away and stared at the night sky. He was silent for a while and then muttered unhappily, "If you don't want to answer, then don't answer."

"To me, coincidence is just coincidence—" Red blinked and smiled brightly.

"cut--"

Qiao shrank his neck and used his raised collar and hair to cover his slightly hot face.

"Leave Rosette to me. Well - although I'm not as strong as you, I can still delay time. If anything happens..."

Qiao raised his hand to hold his hair, leaned forward and said.

"No matter how far away it is, you will come immediately, right?"

"Isn't that natural?"

Holding the handrail of the rooftop, Qiao looked into the distance. Red's mobile Pegasus was like a meteor that streaked across the night sky and headed towards the horizon. Qiao tried hard to keep her eyes open and follow the trail of the meteor, but under the cover of the stars, she couldn't find Red in a few minutes.

Qiao held the handrail and squatted down slowly, holding the railing of the guardrail with both hands, breathing unwillingly like a prisoner longing for freedom.

"A short-lived fate—"

……

In the dark corridor of Qingmingyuan University, Yagyu covered his shoulders and screamed while staggering forward.

"Is there anyone here? Is there anyone here? Help!"

The shrill screams echoed, but no one answered.

Despair filled Yagyu's heart.

"I don't want to die, I don't want to die!!!"

"please!"

Yagyu stumbled and fell to the ground.

"Click——"

Heavy footsteps sounded from a distance. Yagyu turned his head with difficulty as if struck by lightning. At the end, a majestic knight holding a phoenix scepter was looking in his direction.
