NABC Chapter 119: True Past!
Chapter 119: True Past!
"Then, Ashen killed his uncle and their children as revenge. That's the end of the story, Now tell me your views on the story! Was Ashen wrong? Was Ashen a bad person? Anything that you find wrong in Ashen's actions!"
Ashen finished narrating the story to Feng Xue before looking at her with a curious expression to hear her answer.
Feng Xue had been listening to the story attentively with a lot of interest.
After thinking for a while, she began to express her views:
"Hmm... In this story, Ashen was righteous until he began killing William's children and Grandchildren. They were only obeying their grandfather."
"It was William who was wrong to eye his brother's wealth and power, however, his children like Leopold and Leopold's son, Conrad, only kidnapped Ashen and Vic, that too on William's orders."
"Even the twins, It must've been William who taught them this. They shouldn't be killed too. They should be given punishment only for the crime they had committed, however, killing them was going too far!"
"Ashen was wrong in this!"
She nodded her head with a proud expression as if praising her analysis.
Ashen was dumbfounded by her analysis:
How can she think like this?
Just what kind of justice has she studied?
Even in this story, Where I removed my evil deeds and presented my past as a righteous person, she managed to find something wrong, How would she react if she found out about my real past?
Ashen looked at her as another thought flashed in his mind and he asked:
"Then Feng Xue, If you were to judge Ashen, Would you punish him or would you let him go?"
Feng Xue thought for a second before answering: "Well, I would obviously judge him evil since he murdered his own family members. For Murder, shouldn't he be sentenced to death?"
Hearing her answer, Ashen was convinced:
This woman... Her mind is flawed!
It's like I am hearing a judge talking in the court with their false sense of justice!
Even if I gave a thousand logical reasons for killing all those protagonists, she wouldn't be swayed.
It's like she hasn't suffered throughout her lifespan to make those claims... Wait!... Then why don't I force her in a situation where she would've to murder people to protect someone to change her mind?
Yeah, that's the only way!
I'll need to change her thinking process and her sense of justice from scratch for her to understand anything.
But how?
She is a King realm expert, how can I make her feel similar to how powerless feel?
Then his widened as an idea flashed into his mind:
Yeah, I can do that! Let's do that after I return from the Xue Mo Clan!
These men then surrounded Ashen along with Conrad and Leopold.
"W-Who are you all?" Conrad asked with wide eyes, taking steps back in fear.
No one answered him, instead, One of the men came forward and freed Ashen's hands, helping him to stand.
"You? These men are yours? But how?" Leopold was dumbfounded, his eyes were wide in shock along with his son.
"Tie them!"
Ashen ordered and Conrad along with his father was tied down and made to kneel in front of the ongoing video call.
Ashen fixed his gaze on the Video call where his Grandfather and William could be seen with shocked expressions on their faces.
"William, now I give you the same offer, Sign those papers!"
Ashen said with a winner smile as Maria placed another set of papers in front of William which said that William was giving his wealth to Ashen.
William, however, refused, and at that moment, a guard from out of the room, in which William and Ashen's Grandfather was, entered and shot William in the head.
Bang!
Conrad, Leopold, and everyone present were shocked to see what just happened.
"Now the wealth will all be transferred to William's son, Leopold."
Ashen looked at Leopold beside him and said with a terrifying smile: "So Uncle Leopold, what would you do? Would you like to sign these papers or die?"
Ashen presented him with the same set of papers, just with Leopold's name in place of William's.
Leopold knew he would die the same death as his father if he refused and so, he simply signed the papers.
"Good! I will also keep my promise, you can go!"
Ashen released the hostages and after going through William's funeral, Ashen went through the paperwork and finished the registration and transfer of wealth to his name.
Then he killed Leopold and his children as a safety measure. They could come back for revenge if he didn't. You shouldn't leave your enemies alive for future headache!
As for Xinovia, he loved her in true sense but he felt betrayed. He understood that for Xinovia, her family came above him, hence therefore, he decided to not let his love grow anymore.
As punishment for her betrayal, He decided to not treat her with the love and care that he did before.
Previously, he had planned to marry Xinovia, however, now she would just remain his lover.
He just made her another member of his harem where she would go crazy for his dragon.
However, this incident also twisted his personality!
He wasn't able to love women due to the fear of being betrayed someday!
