I, Viego, conquer Terra!

At least this time, he could spare the energy to talk, without having to devote all his energy to suppressing the Ruinous Curse and recalling the incident in his mind.

Listening to Isolde's words, which seemed sincere but full of hypocrisy and performance upon closer inspection, Viego's disgust and nausea towards her reached its peak.

There were even signs that his disgust exceeded that of the bad woman who cheated on him in his previous life.

So, he spoke.

"Stop being hypocritical, you stupid [beep——] woman." He cursed plainly: "Stop? Why should you stop? You said that the soldiers of the United Army are innocent... Then are the soldiers of the Tower of Babel not innocent?"

"There is no right or wrong between the Tower of Babel and the Royal Court. There is only a difference in stance. Why do you make us seem like the evil and unforgivable demons that we must lay down our weapons and be killed?"

Viego suppressed the Curse of Ruin and the memories in his mind, looking ferocious. He stared at Isolde closely, his turquoise eyes even faintly covered with black mist-colored bloodshot, looking terrifying.

Under his gaze, Isolde even felt a murderous intent that made her feel cold all over.

The blonde woman subconsciously stopped walking towards him, stood there in a daze, staring at Viego blankly, and the pity and guilt she had for him on her face turned stiff at this moment.

"Viego...what are you talking about?"

Isolde even suspected that she had heard it wrong.

What is he saying?

Why......

Why did Viego suddenly insult himself?

Why...would he suddenly contradict himself?

Isolde was caught off guard by Viego's reaction, and was stunned into a state of unacceptability.

"I say, you are a double-standard idiot, Isolde."

Viego took a deep breath and spoke in a straightforward manner, as if he was venting his disgust, or as if he was using it to suppress the memories and obsessions that were churning more and more violently in his body:

"Stop putting on that hypocritical mask of yours and acting compassionately. Anyone can see that you don't care about this world, those innocent people, or the Ruined King... You only care about yourself!"

"Viago... why do you think like that...?" Isolde widened his eyes, and the stiff expression on his face finally dissolved, turning into a look of puzzled sadness and dejection.

"I just don't want you to bear new sins. Our story should have ended the moment Kamavia was destroyed... right?"

"Why, isn't this the time when you were crying and begging him to save you before you died? You were the one who started this. It was you who stabbed the King's Sword into my chest, and now you are the one who comes to persuade me to stop with a compassionate look on your face..."

Viego sneered:

"It was you who showed me indifference and disgust at first, and it was you who kept saying that you loved me now. But you wanted someone to kill me, and it was you who stopped me... Don't you think this is contradictory, Isolde?"

Unconsciously, Viego's way of addressing the "Ruined King" changed from "he" to "I".

"No...it's not like that, Viego." Isolde shook his head, his face full of pain, almost crying.

"I... I just don't want to see you continue to kill those innocent people. Please let them go, Viego... Look, I'm back now, right? We can live the life of our dreams... No need to kill anymore, right?"

Her face was a mixture of pain and hope. She just looked at Viego as if she really loved him deeply.

But Isolde said these words just to attract Viego's attention and create opportunities for the coalition's assassination team.

——Her biggest hypocrisy is that her words do not match her deeds.

He took a deep breath, tightly gripped the Ruined King Sword in his hand, and the ferocious look on his face subsided a little. He raised his eyes and looked at Isolde - the disgust in his heart became even stronger.

I feel like I have eaten the defense.

There is no point in continuing to talk nonsense with her, it will only make me feel disgusted...

Not far away, a blue-haired girl was carrying a huge pair of dark blue scissors on her shoulders and walking through the battlefield. She was walking in quick steps, with an anxious expression on her face, mixed with a little anger.

Isolde noticed Gwen behind Viego. He didn't have time to think about why Gwen came from that direction. He just felt relieved.

Gwen really didn't leave directly. She must have been following me secretly, wanting to reconcile with me but unable to let go of her pride...

Now seeing Viego's abnormal and ferocious appearance, he was afraid that he would hurt himself, so he ran over anxiously.

Gwen is still so worried about herself...

She must be very angry now.

And Viego, as expected, as long as I talk about living with him, as long as I tell him that I'm back, he will change back to his old self, obeying me and full of love...

Isolde thought of this and subconsciously smiled as expected, but her face still maintained a mixed look of hope and pain, as if she was hurt by her lover's cold words, but also as if she really loved Viego deeply.

But the next moment, the expression on her face froze again.

Gwen ran over and held Viego, with an anxious look on her face. "Viego, are you okay?"

She said...what?

Isolde stared at the blue-haired girl who was supporting the white-haired man in front of her, and tried hard to turn her thoughts around, which were stiff and sluggish due to her slow reaction.

why...

Gwen will be by Viego's side?!

She obviously made the doll herself...

next second.

Gwen looked up at Isolde, her brow furrowed and her eyes filled with anger.

"Isold...I'm beginning to hate you now!"

Chapter 111 Gwen's Determination

Facing Gwen's angry gaze, Isolde was completely stunned.

It is an indisputable fact that Gwen is worried about Viego.

But Isolde didn't understand...

Why does it become like this?

Why did Gwen suddenly appear next to Viego, why did she look at her with such angry eyes, why did she... suddenly start to worry about Viego?

Isolde's stiff and sluggish thoughts were interrupted.

——Because a pitch-black grenade surrounded by black mist fell accurately in front of her.

Then, boom!

The black fog spread along with the smoke and dust, submerging Isolde's figure.

"Ha! I've been wanting to do this for a long time!"

W's excited laughter was accompanied by the sound of indiscriminate bombings. The white-haired Sarkaz came to Viego with a grenade launcher. "Just blow that woman to ashes, Viego won't be affected, right?"

Gwen was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously felt that what W said made sense.

"Thank you, Gwen." Viego patted Gwen's head to comfort her and walked forward with the Ruined King Sword in hand.

After he scolded Isolde, Viego felt that the memories and the curse of ruin that were churning in his body had settled down a little.

Although he didn't know why, his overall condition was indeed much better.

At least there's no problem with movement and combat.

W and Gwen followed him on either side.

Gwen cast a worried look at Viego.

Gwen actually heard most of the conversation between Isolde and Viego.

Now that her filter for Isolde is broken, she will naturally no longer subconsciously glorify that woman in her mind, so she can also hear Isolde's hypocrisy.

As she rushed over, she also saw the disgust and ferocity on Viego's face.

As a result, she also began to feel angry about what Isolde said.

Viego's current status...

Does it really matter?

Gwen pursed her lips slightly.

"Viego." She took two quick steps forward and stopped Viego. "Isolde's matter..."

Viego stood there silently, waiting patiently for her next words.

Even at this moment, he made Gwen feel that his attitude was gentle and tolerant enough.

Gwen's eyes hardened.

Of course, she was not asking for mercy for Isolde, but...

"Leave Isolde's affairs to me." The blue-haired girl clenched the scissors. "I have something to say to her, and I don't want to see you in such pain again, Viego."

Viego was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

He raised his free hand and gently rubbed the top of the blue-haired girl's head.

A portion of the thin black mist quietly remained on Gwen as he moved.

Viego was not confident that Gwen would act alone, so he left some black mist as a means of protection.

"I'll come back to you later, okay, Gwen?"

"Okay!" Gwen nodded, carrying the huge scissors, turned around and ran into the smoke.

This time it's not to see Isolde.

To end it quickly.

So that I can return to Viego as soon as possible...!

Viego watched Gwen leave, then turned to look at the Allied Forces headquarters in the distance.

There, a tall Sarkaz in full armor walked out slowly, holding a naginata in his hand. His eyes passed over the battlefield and stayed fixed on Viego.

"It seems that someone is unwilling to give up and wants to fight to the death?" W also looked over, and the smile on his face became more beautiful and brilliant. "It seems to be the major of the Military Commission."

"Don't make us sound like the devil."

Viego said helplessly, glancing at the grenade launcher in W's hand, which seemed to be no different from before. The strange black smoke produced by the explosion slowly dissipated in front of him:

"Is this the new weapon Babel gave you?"

The grenade that W just fired was obviously wrapped in black mist. Viego could also feel that after the grenade exploded, a burst of energy from the Curse of Ruin also exploded, enhancing the explosive power of the grenade.

"Well, it works very well." W smiled brightly, raised his hand and fired another grenade into the coalition army's formation in the distance.

Originally, she didn't want to be a guinea pig to test new weapons and ammunition for the Tower of Babel.

But Kal'tsit said that this experimental product was related to Viego, which made W see the familiar black mist wrapped around the weapon, and only then did she accept her new weapon.

However, there is no need to tell that idiot Viego about this.

...It's not a big deal anyway.

During the conversation, a major from the Allied Forces holding a naginata quickly approached Viego.

Viego raised an eyebrow.

"remarkably brave."

......

The other side of the battlefield.

Gwen broke through the black smoke and caught sight of Isolde, who looked disheveled and dazed from the explosion.

The blue-haired girl walked over.

Thanks to Viego's presence and W's grenades, there were no United Army or Babel troops within dozens of meters, so Gwen didn't have to worry about being disturbed when talking to Isolde.

Isolde sat on the ground in a daze, her eyes dull. Her originally luxurious clothes were covered with dust, making her look disheveled.

The sudden grenade and the unexpected accidents that followed one after another made her completely confused.

She couldn't figure it out.

Why would Viego refute her, insult her like that, and reveal the part of her memory that she wanted to hide the most without hesitation, which was completely different from the situation in Rune Continent.

Why was Gwen by Viego's side, worried about him so much, and looking at her with angry eyes.

Isolde noticed Gwen's arrival.

"Gwen..." Her eyes lit up slightly, showing a bit of hope. "Are you still worried about me...?"
