Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1577: To Rest For Eternity

It was already night.

Standing on the balcony, Demoic Ring City was still flickering with lights of all colors in the night. Like gemstones embellishing the city, it was beautiful and mysterious, giving off an unrealistic feeling. Having changed into a Baltic dress, Simeel lay on the stone railing on the balcony and squeezed his face hard, but he cried out in pain before saying, "So it's not a dream."

Today was like a dream to her.

In the shadow hall during the day, Ellen treated her as a guest and prepared a gorgeous seat for her on the right side of the throne platform. Throughout the hall, everyone except her and Alan stood there, and the girl was naturally embarrassed when she sat on that chair. At one time, she thought that Alan was teasing her, but when she looked at the man on the throne from time to time, she would always see a look of encouragement in his eyes. Just like that, Simeel endured it like a needle, but apparently, when she left the hall, she noticed that the gazes everyone in the hall looked at her were somewhat different from before.

"But I'm really not used to it." Simeel whispered.

"Then you have to learn to get used to it." Alan's voice suddenly sounded from behind. The girl jumped up like a cat with its tail stepped on. Alan turned around and changed into civilian clothes. Simeel's face turned red as he hid his hands behind him and whispered, "Why is His Majesty here?"

"I came to see you."

Alan sat down on a chair by the balcony and said, "I know you're not used to it during the day. But I have to do it, because only I do it will the empire recognize you and your status as Gus. Otherwise, it won't be easy for some of you to make a living in the empire in the future."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for being so considerate of us."

"That's not necessary. Helping you is also helping me. I also want to build a space weapon for it one day. In the future, when Yordon looks at that bastard, I will fire a cannon at their lair."

Simeel chuckled.

"But that's probably all I can do. To gain respect from others, you have to show respect. Whether the Gus can win a place in the empire in the future depends on you, especially your talent in weapons making," Allen added.

Simir nodded and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I don't dare to say anything else, but we Gus won't lose to anyone in weapons production, especially cannons!"

"Oh right, that's what Simeel looks like." "It's not in your nature to be cowardly," Allen smiled.

He stood up and said, "Remember, Simeel. No matter how humble a person is, there must be something to be proud of. Don't forget your pride. That way, you can embrace the sunshine at any time."

Something was shining in Simeel's eyes, and she nodded forcefully.

Returning to his bedroom, Alan walked to the Sky Garden. In the garden, Laura picked a bouquet of flowers, and when she heard the sound of footsteps, she stood up and said, "Looks like you care about that little girl."

"What? Are you unhappy?" Ellen purposely said as he hugged Laura's slender waist and lightly tapped her lips. "I just wanted Simil to be more confident and prepare for the Gus' integration into the empire. In the end, I was looking for their talent in weapons making. If they were worthless, I don't think they would have spent so much effort on Simil."

"You seem to have changed."

"It's changed." Ellen buried her head in her long hair. "People, the positions you stand in are naturally different. However, there are still some things that haven't changed "

"For example?"

"I won't tell you." Alan laughed and let go of her. Then he saw something and his expression turned solemn. He walked over. Those were two tombstones. Alan reached out and touched the surface of the tombstone. His tentacles were cold. Laura also walked over and split the bouquet into two, placing it in front of a tombstone.

"This is Peggy's and the others'?"

Laura nodded.

Alan sighed softly and said, "That's good. The two sisters only want to have a small world of freedom in this palace. It's good to live in peace. Letting them sleep here is also repaying their wish. However "

"Sorry, as your master, I can't protect you "

At this moment, a maid walked into the garden and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Gronn and the others are here."

"I see."

In the living room of the dormitory, Alan saw Geron and Barrow. After Ramo and Ganli ambushed them yesterday, all the generals and officers involved in the rebellion were imprisoned. These people should have been executed. Thinking of the upcoming war, Allen allowed them to get away with their crimes. Apart from Lamo's trusted aides who were executed, the rest were all thrown into the vanguard battalion. Once they were at war with Omiska, these people would fight as vanguards. The death rate of the vanguard army was not necessarily high, but their military contributions were also exceptionally high. Alan promised that if they could earn enough merit points, they would be reinstated. Of course, everyone knew that the war was over and very few people could return from the vanguard battalion, but it was better than being executed immediately. As for Geron and Barrow, Alan had surprisingly not executed them, otherwise, with their crimes, how could they stand here?

Seeing Alan, Glen and Glen immediately knelt down and shouted "Your Majesty". Ellen snorted and did not intend to wake them up. He made them kneel on the ground and listen to him. "Don't misunderstand," said Allen. "Don't think that I'm merciful not to kill you, but you still have some valuable plants to use."

Hearing this, Glen felt relieved. As long as he was still useful, his life would be temporarily saved.

Alan continued, "You saved me some trouble by identifying Ramo. Adding on your familiarity with the operation of the empire, this is the time to hire people. But there's one thing I want to tell you, don't expect to revive the family. I'm not His Majesty Sbernak. I won't raise useless people. If you want to survive, you have to earn it yourself."

Gerald buried his head on the ground and asked, "I wonder what we can do for His Majesty?"

"Not long from now, we will start a war with Omiska. I need a lot of military resources, and you can't do anything else. However, you have deep connections within the empire. It shouldn't be difficult for you to gather the resources I need in a short period of time."

"We will definitely do our best to serve His Majesty. We will not dare to have any second thoughts," said Gerald hurriedly.

After this incident, seeing that the Kidds' space weapons could not take Alan's life, Geron gave up completely. Such a person, unless he was a supreme being, who else could be his opponent?
