Chapter 695: Winning and Losing
In the golden vision, Raphaela was hoisted up by the main perspective and pushed into the Crevice. After completing all this, Elizabeth finally closed her eyes, as if beginning to breathe anew.
Everything in the sky above remained chaotic. Amidst that expanse of golden light occupying all vision, aside from Raphaela's dumbfounded expression, no one else discovered Elizabeth's actions.
And how Raphaela reacted, Elizabeth didn't even look. When she opened her eyes again, her vision was filled with the scene of Saint-Nazareth below.
The infinitely spreading golden awe-inspiring light above had already occupied the gazes of the vast majority of people. Those terrified citizens of Nari had long been forced out of their homes amidst this conflict, subconsciously walking towards the hub of Saint-Nazareth, the Golden Palace.
Before the Golden Palace, Jasmine looked at the sky, while Alajina beside her also wore a tense expression, because Valentina above was already plummeting unsteadily downward.
Alajina hurriedly stepped forward to catch the other party, but Valentina swayed her body and landed steadily on the ground.
Jasmine also quickly ran towards her, hastily asking,
"How is it? Has the medicine been delivered?"
"I-I don't know, the light above was truly too bright, I couldn't see anything clearly. Furthermore, that Chaos-kin plummeted down as well, I didn't dare to linger there..."
"Light?"Jasmine vaguely felt an ominous premonition in her heart. Sure enough, half a moment later, a burst of crisp "crackling" sounds abruptly echoed from the firmament, causing everyone below to shudder slightly.
That sounded like...
The sound of something shattering.
Jasmine widened her eyes and looked up at the sky, only to see that sky-filling golden light abruptly shatter apart. That light symbolizing Xuan Can's Golden Rule finally teetered on the brink of shattering and could not be maintained after thoroughly blooming to its full might.
"Crack crack crack!!"
After the light shattered, it left behind only the few heavily injured Chaos-kin, as well as Xuan Can, who clutched her chest with her entire body covered in rifts of the Law.
"Ha... God of Destruction..."
Xuan Can weakly glanced at the enemies before her. Just as she was about to make a move, the Crevice in the firmament abruptly churned wildly again.
The unconscious Dagon naturally could no longer manipulate Authority. The only one capable of such an action at this moment was Fisher.
"Buzz!"
Following a resounding boom, those few Chaos-kin were also violently pulled into the Crevice and vanished without a trace.
"Mom!!"
Jasmine had just breathed a sigh of relief, but Xuan Can in the sky above uncontrollably plummeted downward. Valentina's expression also changed slightly. Just as she prepared to spread her wings and fly high, the heavily scarred wings behind her suddenly caused her to feel pain.
Since... since when?
Earlier, when chasing after Taurus, she had used everything she had to fly upwards. The hormones in her body temporarily numbed her to fatigue and the pain of her wounds, but now, a mere moment of rest made it ache terribly.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
But just as Xuan Can fell half-way, countless Cardinals abruptly intercepted her in mid-air, gently hoisting her up and flying towards this direction.
It was Alajina!
Jasmine shot Alajina a grateful look, yet her heart remained extremely anxious.
At this moment, the sky suddenly quieted down. The surrounding people of Nari, previously frightened immobile, grew even more confused and headed towards this direction. Soon, they surrounded the entire plaza of the Golden Palace, witnessing the scene unfolding here from afar.
"Dad, what... what happened to mom?"
Jasmine's small face was pale as she conversed with Gou Wen far away in the Spirit World.
Gou Wen seemed to have also been attempting to contact Xuan Can just now, but there had been no response from over there. At this moment, suddenly shifting his focus to Jasmine's side, his tone was of the utmost anxiety,
"Jasmine, listen to me, your mom forcefully utilized her shattered Law just now. Now, the wound of the Law inside her body is continuously spreading. If it spreads to her entire body, wait until the Law completely shatters, then she will die! But don't panic, didn't I say there's still a chance? Earlier, I told you to stay on the ground specifically for this step, though I didn't anticipate your mom acting so quickly..."
"Dad, hurry up and say it! Stop explaining! Mom... mom she..."
Jasmine's little face was pale, and tears uncontrollably fell from the entire contour of her eye sockets. The feeling of knowing Xuan Can was about to leave her pierced her heart to the core.
The love and care Xuan Can showed her in the past were all entirely hanging by a thread at this moment, about to turn into memories.
She didn't want to lose these; just feeling the loss of all this brought her heart-wrenching pain...
"Alright... Jasmine, listen... Just now, when the three deities merged into one inside the Crevice, a brand-new Law formed within Them... The nature of that Law is very special, because that Law was formed by devouring a part of Fisher's body... That Law possesses the innate characteristic of being compatible with other Authorities, naturally including Laws as well. As long as you obtain that brand-new Law, yours mom's shattered Law can be repaired, and she can be saved... That Law is currently inside the prosthetic eye of the human Empress behind you, you..."
As Jasmine listened, her pupils shrank slightly. Turning her head, she looked at Elizabeth behind her with blood-red eyes.
The anger suppressed within her body, the past grudges in Saint-Nazareth, the worry for her mother completely erupted at this moment.
"Priest Jasmine..."
Even Valentina beside her was startled. Jasmine had already emotionally broken down and rushed toward Elizabeth,
"Elizabeth!!"
Elizabeth didn't even evade, merely letting Jasmine grab her collar, shoving her backward, locking straight onto her neck. Cursing her with anger and a tearful voice,
"I'll kill you! Elizabeth! You... you beast!"
"..."
Elizabeth merely looked down at Jasmine before her. Her hollow golden eyes reflected her murderous gaze. The golden longsword in Jasmine's hand violently extended; she astonishingly intended to directly carve out Elizabeth's eyes to save Xuan Can.
"Clang!"
Elizabeth remained motionless, merely allowing her to raise the blade. As if seeing through Jasmine's target was her own eyes, she finally said expressionlessly,
"It's useless. The prosthetic eye is bound to me; without my consent, you cannot take it out... Even if you kill me, the prosthetic eye will also be reduced to ashes and smoke alongside me. Whatever you want, you will not get."
Jasmine's raised longsword stalled slightly, her furious expression giving way to a blank stare at this moment. In that moment, the ringing in her ears, born of her shattered emotions, gradually dissipated, allowing her to hear Gou Wen's voice again,
"Jasmine! Jasmine! Her prosthetic eye cannot be removed through conventional means; only she herself can take it off... You must convince her no matter what. If push comes to shove, go into the Crevice and have Fisher come down... I'm afraid only Fisher can make her do so."
Jasmine's expression struggled. Looking at the expressionless Elizabeth before her, her tears flowed ceaselessly. That furious anger receded bit by bit, leaving behind only sorrow.
Her wrist swayed bit by bit, and the raised longsword, lacking the strength to support it any longer, dropped to the ground.
"Clang, clang..."
Gritting her teeth, Jasmine wept endlessly. Looking at Elizabeth before her, she was ultimately unable to understand,
"Why... why must you do this? Why, Elizabeth?! How did we exactly wrong you? How exactly did my aunt offend you? Why could you so casually commit such a heinous act? My aunt was obviously so kind, did she just have to die simply because she was an eyesore to you? Why..."
Hearing Jasmine's questioning, the veins on Elizabeth's forehead popped slightly bit by bit. She sneered, looking at Jasmine before her, mocking,
"How are you still ignorant of everything? After so many years have passed, how are you still as naive as back then? Obviously you saw everything, yet you simply refuse to think deeper about the whole truth behind it... Do you know why? Because you only accept the things you wish to believe..."
Amidst Jasmine's slightly dazed expression, Elizabeth reached out and slapped away the palm grabbing her collar. She clapped her hands, gritted her teeth, and looked at Jasmine,
"Your uncle, the founder of the Pioneering Company, my father's close friend, formulated all strategies for the Pioneering Company over the years and served as Nari's greatest faction for all those years—do you not know this?
"Didn't you ask me before why humanity, initially so weak, recklessly bullied the demi-humans of the Southern Continent once they became strong? Let me tell you why: because the Pioneering Company only chased profit. In the blueprint your uncle formulated, be it demi-humans, nations, or people, all are merely commodities! Just digits, do you understand?
"The Pioneering Company invested; my father provided policy conveniences. They mined resources on the Southern Continent and trafficked the demi-human population in all directions. To profit off war during the conflict between Nari and Schwari, they preferred watching frontline soldiers die entirely over failing to sell the artillery and weapons in their hands... Who do you think formulated these strategies? Ah? Do you think your aunt didn't know these things?"
Elizabeth looked at Jasmine before her, narrowing her eyes, mocking her naivety,
"Didn't you personally visit your uncle's underground palace back then? Beneath the Royal Academy, he astonishingly buried more wealth than the entire Nari treasury combined. Did you think that money got blown in by a strong wind? Didn't you see it with your own eyes? Only Whale-kin could find that place; who do you think found that place for him? Was that also his desires manipulated by my Pandora's Prosthetic Eye?
"I'll tell you, your aunt knew all these things from start to finish but deceived herself! Because of love, she pretended to turn a blind eye to all this! Even when her lover was killed by me magnifying his desire to grow old with her, she was a willing participant! Therefore, I had to completely eradicate the Pioneering Company, this parasitic worm corroding the nation and society! Your aunt might be innocent, and I have never denied she died because of me...
"But don't talk to me about right and wrong. Revenge is revenge. You win, I lose; I pay the price, that's it. You thought the world was beautiful and thought the beautiful romance story of your Whale-kin compatriot was a pity... Actually, it was merely because your parents protected you so well, and Fisher also chose to help you..."
In their ears, Gou Wen's voice remained silent end to end. Perhaps both Xuan Can and Gou Wen knew of Mu Xi and Black's affairs. It was just that after 10,000 years past and experiencing several Mythic Wars, they had seen far too much.
But Jasmine looked at Elizabeth before her, whose emotions were equally agitated. She panted, took a few steps backward, shook her head, and suddenly threw a punch, viciously hitting Elizabeth on the face—
"Bang!"
Elizabeth's main body was merely the tenth-tier; this punch directly knocked her to the ground. And at this moment, the surrounding citizens all flooded inwards. Saint-Nazareth's massive population was simply incomparable to the underwater Whale-kin or the Northern Border's Wutong Tree.
The outer crowd was a sea of people, and very quickly surrounded this battlefield of fewer than a hundred people led by the Wutong Tree.
"Your Majesty!!"
"Those damn demi-humans!"
"Protect Your Majesty!"
Seeing Elizabeth punched down, all of Saint-Nazareth seethed with indignation, beginning to surge frantically toward the center. The Giant Troll-kin holding weapons at the perimeter hurriedly raised the weapons in their hands, yet looked somewhat lost facing the crowd who simply wanted to rush beside Elizabeth regardless of them.
They looked back at Valentina, who frowned and flew into the sky in a flash, revealing her rank, attempting to suppress the situation with the icy wind-like power seemingly from the far north,
"Silence!!"
The crowd beneath quieted down momentarily, yet still glared indignantly at Valentina in the sky.
But did they actually know Valentina?
No, they simply cared for the besieged, isolated and unassisted Elizabeth at this moment.
Valentina cleared her throat, hastily saying,
"You've all just been deceived by Elizabeth. What she hasn't told you is that she..."
"We know everything! You get down here right now!"
"You bunch of demi-humans!"
"Your Majesty!!"
"Let go of Your Majesty!!"
Yet defying Valentina's expectations, nearly all Nari people before them had learned of her actions after the telegram broadcasted by Elizabeth. They were not entirely ignorant of what she had done in the least.
Amidst the surging tide of people, many fanatics even began directly attempting to breach the defensive lines of the Giant Troll-kin and Cangniao-zhong. The Giant Troll-kin shot a glance back at Valentina in the sky, their grip on their weapons tightening progressively.
"Stop!"
The commotion outside didn't disrupt the confrontation between Elizabeth and Jasmine in the center at all. Droplets of blood fell onto the ground. Elizabeth suddenly spoke, causing the fanatic citizens outside the circle to immediately quiet down, though they still anxiously looked at the Elizabeth inside the field, reaching out their hands toward her.
Elizabeth panted, covering her right cheek struck by Jasmine. While Jasmine continued weeping, she looked at Elizabeth on the ground, revealing an unprecedented sense of sorrow in her eyes,
"Elizabeth..."
Jasmine suddenly opened her mouth, speaking in a hoarse voice,
"Do you think everyone in this world is like you... only caring about winning and losing, and profit?"
Elizabeth froze slightly. Her hollow eyes flickered faintly, involuntarily avoiding Jasmine's utterly bruised expression at this moment.
She remained silent for a while. Disheveled blonde hair fell over her forehead. Through that hazy vision, she looked at the citizens before her and suddenly spoke aloud,
"Is it not? Look at the people before your eyes, do they care about world peace? Do they care about great righteousness? To put it bluntly, do you think they care about me? No... It's merely because I provided them with sufficient benefits, and I will safeguard their interests in the new order based on my responsibility, nothing more..."
Covering her face and disheveled blonde hair, she stood up. Looking at the quietened citizens before her, her seemingly confident smile also abated bit by bit, her voice growing soft and faint,
"I am willing to give my prosthetic eye to you, Whale-kin."
Jasmine blanked slightly. She lifted her head, yet saw Elizabeth in a trance, not knowing what she was thinking,
"Not just my prosthetic eye, but my life, I'll pay it all back together... Taking away my prosthetic eye must be related to your mother. Take it away to save your mother; the matter this time was my doing. It is only rational I face the consequences and pay with my death... Lastly, the Chaos-kin in the sky above refuse to leave. I can also tell you the method to make them leave, so that the others remain unharmed..."
Jasmine raised her eyes, looking at the decisive yet mocking Elizabeth before her. Elizabeth concurrently turned her head, ultimately declaring,
"From now on, all scores are settled. From now on, the Empress of Nari is Isabelle. The people of Nari will not be purged, agreed?"
Jasmine gritted her teeth. Amidst the silence, Gou Wen's exasperated sigh suddenly arose in her ears as well,
"Jasmine, that works perfectly. The transfer of Law is fundamentally a transfer of Authority. Authority necessitates a vessel, otherwise it cannot operate... And during this process, an individual must inevitably endure the corruption of the Death Law until your mother recovers, with a human body at that... Since she speaks such, then act accordingly."
"Dad, about aunt's matters... you all knew from start to finish, right?"
"Jasmine..."
Jasmine wiped her tears, speaking no further. She merely nodded and stood up. Looking at Elizabeth before her, she relayed the impending actions.
Elizabeth quietly listened to it all, then nodded in acceptance. However, prior to doing so, she looked at the nearby citizens and said,
"You all heard what I said previously... I pass my responsibilities down to my sister who holds the Gothrin bloodline. After I die, Isabelle Gothrin... she will become your Emperor, fulfilling her responsibilities to you..."
"..."
The citizens all remained absolutely quiet. Elizabeth consequently turned back to gaze toward Jasmine once more, continuing,
"The best method to make the Chaos-kin retreat is actually negotiation. They fear the contamination inside the Spirit World. Because according to the original plan, when the Crevice ruptures, the Spirit World Contamination would also enter reality. Hence, the Chaos from the outside told me a spell that makes the Spirit World Contamination fearful to protect the living beings... If you tell them this spell, they can remain safe and sound inside the Spirit World. That spell is...
"Okāsan (Mother)."
After pronouncing the memorized incantation from her mind, Jasmine's limbs surprisingly began shuddering uncontrollably. Perhaps her distress strung much too tight. Nevertheless, recovering her bearings out from underneath stupefaction, she found her outfit entirely soaked bearing cold sweat.
"Ha..."
She sucked in a mouthful containing dense breath. Meantime, the distant Alajina previously commanded an automaton bringing over the pale-looking Xuan Can exhibiting sealed vision directly over here.
Elizabeth understood the destined moment approached.
Elizabeth swept glances above evaluating those tight-lipped, brow-knitted ladies bearing close bonds featuring Fisher prior. Converging unitedly seemingly unbreakable bearing collective hatred striving striking her flat down akin similar fates preceding combatted by herself beforehand mirroring an insurmountable scenario.
Gazing vacantly from vacant apertures, dwelling within absolute muteness, she bowed leaning downwards, drifting hands gradually marching alongside eyeballs...
"..."
Yet inching closer aside peepers, hands uncontrollably shook fiercer emitting magnified dread.
Never sourced from Pandora’s prosthesis exhibiting resistant feelings combating detachment; emerging from inner reluctance originated directly alongside herself completely.
It plainly laid out clear explicit understanding dictating only personal authorization permitted detachment proceedings regarding eyeballs, so nonetheless even amid accompanied presence involving Fisher prior times triggering alarming fright stemming purely hands drawing adjacent facial surroundings precisely?
She possessed potentially mere anxiety confronting regression tracing footsteps restoring instantaneous deprivation originally bearing peeper removal prior epochs.
Immersing immensely inside heightened anxiety states, palms unexpectedly quivered surmounting beyond voluntary containment exactly resembling twin iron slabs, instilling hardship simply caressing facial layers.
But...
She clearly acknowledged everything entirely...
She universally grasped situations eternally priorly.
She definitely experienced complete ruin already...
The theorem framing victors inheriting paramount kingdom alongside losers turning mere villains resonated continuously throughout minds. Ergo pursuing triumph claiming ultimate acquisitions dictated necessities correctly mapping failing completely surrendering all aspects inherently valid conceptually embraced continually originally inside mental spaces.
Presently undergoing explicit collapse scenarios, appropriately resigning encompassing serene acceptance logically mapped perfectly correctly?
"Your Majesty! Woo woo..."
But right at this moment, an aggrieved cry drifted from the perimeter. Elizabeth stared blankly while Jasmine and Valentina rotated heads focusing outside bounds.
Instead noticing a grief-stricken elderly lady genuflecting upon flooring spreading overflowing tearful expressions weeping uncontrollably crying out vigorously.
"Your Majesty... 'twas you restoring my beloved son's martyrdom status... perished battling amidst Schwari... you singularly recall his presence entirely! Everyone distinctly forgot..."
Elizabeth pushed apart eyelids turning gaze peering onto woolen sweater draped alongside wrapped scarf elderly female. Smothering facial contours whilst tears streamed meandering downward wrinkling profiles.
"Those children sent marching towards battlefields ah, post-mortality compensations distributed extremely measly merely. Preceding sovereigns disposed subsequently rendering identities wiped cleanly absent entirely. Within neighborhoods occupying us previously, one child amongst ours privately, dual offspring relating towards Madam Martha intimately, tri-children adjoining Mrs. Donaldson respectively... Our cherished perished returning naught save depending minuscule pensions managing laborious survivabilities barely stretching ends, coercing rentals allocating living quarters forcibly surviving... 'twas your excellency reforming corresponding identities re-issuing auxiliary allowances..."
"So too am I, Your Majesty... Beforehand exclusively Royal Academy pupils accessed governmental employments, folks mirroring us sourced directly outside city-states residing rural poor peasants experienced absolutely zero opportunities stepping feet touching Saint-Nazareth borders. Expected enduring faithfully farming eternally throughout lifetimes... Presently featuring regionally established academies, enabling sprouting magical casters emerging out impoverished backwaters..."
"Your Majesty, failing provisioning mechanized industries initiated directly originated by your excellency, middle-aged demographics similarly matching my profiles long faced dismissals owing physical declinings handling exhausting labors terminating employment inside mining infrastructures... Cough cough I... hold uttermost gratitude attributing Your Majesty reforming legislations guarding against Pioneering Company exploitational practices."
"Whoosh!"
Nari individuals standing outside Giant Troll-kin lineages instantaneously kowtowed consecutively matching synchronized waves. Countless digits squeezing past robust extremities corresponding Giant Troll-kin, piercing amidst sharp feathers aligning Cangniao-zhong, extending grabbing stretching seeking holding firm grabbing Elizabeth frantically yet constrained distant stretches abundant populaces failing physically accessing tightly securely holding her frame directly.
Elizabeth observed surrounding weeping genuflecting demographics whilst an aggregated gasp remained choking consistently stuck chest preventing exhalation smoothly.
All this explicitly represented mere responsibilities...
All this evidently constituted spoils successfully snatched contesting father alongside older sibling beforehand...
All this clearly formed theatrical platforms manifesting superior compatibilities eclipsing older brother directly...
But why...
Yet why...
Elizabeth stared bafflingly interpreting countless extending digits attempting grasping reaching herself consistently simultaneously discovering rendering utilizing Pandora’s prosthetic peering underlying internal desires contributing null effectiveness whatsoever.
Perhaps harboring fears enduring retribution inflicted upon varying competitive factions post-mortem events triggering instinctual gripping maneuvers grasping lifelines tightly uniquely...
Yet reciprocating feedbacks channeled via prosthetic strictly genuine sentiments radiating sincerity confusing Elizabeth overwhelmingly comprehensively.
She parted lips permitting exhalation dispersing confined atmosphere retained enclosed chest entirely however mirroring sobbing patterns escalating frequency accelerating fragility matching rhythmic respiratory progressions respectively...
"Demi-human entities, actions performed Your Majesty totally exclusively benefited us entirely. Received mercies emanating directly her majesty inherently enjoyed collectively accordingly... Hence assuming required burdenings allocating Elizabeth solely, permit us sharing mutual participations enduring jointly... Forbidding solitary suffering shared collective accountabilities..."
Jasmine alongside Valentina never beforehand encountered scenarios matching alike whilst facing approaching tear-coated genuflecting Nari populaces, absolute chilling utmost rigid weaponries materialized incapacities maintaining ascending positioning.
Shooting glances rotating reviewing Valentina whilst remaining duos continuously observing standing Elizabeth encountering peaceful admitting defeat expressions sprouting fractures progressively widening exponentially. Her delicate frame quaking continuously incapable ceasing whilst golden iris plummeted gazing ground ward suffused scarlet shades.
Intending dripping tears resulting merely crimson fluid droplets splashing downwards continuously instead.
"Drip drop... "
"I definitely failed losing completely..."
"I solely fulfilled underlying responsibilites correctly simply..."
Yet utterances voiced increasing shakings minimizing volume dropping ultimately resolving isolated sobbing noises solely.
She inherently failed understanding rationally attributing origin losing previously stripped absolute properties initiating viewpoints solidifying win-lose scenarios deciding outcomes establishing rulers against losers effectively simply mere occurrences...
Consequently maneuvering deploying strategic plots striving guaranteeing victories acquiring coveted possessions entirely...
Yet assuming hypothetical validations confirmed inherently accurately why preceding ambushes plotted siblings alongside father resulting visual deprivations experiencing losses clearly manifested triggered unparalleled despair alongside extensive sadness respectively?
However assuming conceptual realities confirmed inherently factually previously residing inside Saint-Nazareth establishing decisive victories why intentionally liberating Fisher permitting free departures?
Nevertheless hypothetically validating actualities confirmed intrinsically currently experiencing total sweeping losses causing entire board collapsing why remaining deeply affected receiving touches emanating subjects directly?
She perhaps harbored absence firm devotions attributing win-loss scenarios purely...
Merely experiencing extended durations lacking acquisitions separated apart "triumph" categorical selections solely, enduring extensive chronologies absent personnel dragging extracting outward life-death quagmire mud pits...
"Demi-human folk, hypothetically feasible kindly permit sharing participating enduring alongside Your Majesty... undergoing destined Law repercussions collectively! Permitting amalgamation forming unified centralizations jointly bearing underlying sinful deeds completely together!"
Jasmine pondered momentarily whilst Gou Wen’s previously muted prolonged silence auditory signals resonated manifesting vocalized expressions anew,
"Already passed reciting spell instructed transmitting spanning entire Chaos-kin cohort currently occupying Sea of Souls respectively. Supposedly capable inter-communicating effectively, combat scenarios located inside Crevice seemingly ceased functionally. Surprisingly proven effective entirely generating redundant running sequences individually, nearly bordering kidnapping extracting utilizing extortion formatting relating Chaos-kin sibling members... Jasmine whatever occurrences transpiring there exactly..."
"Dad..."
Jasmine utilized pitiful observation glances peering towards thoroughly collapsed Elizabeth crumbling receiving outreached hands delivered masses collectively momentarily drawing blank slates lacking proper vocalizations matching appropriately delivering entire preceding narratives briefing Gou Wen thoroughly.
Meanwhile Gou Wen silenced pondering momentarily considering carefully uttering subsequently,
"Perhaps attempting trials isn't entirely forbidden however human tier-rankings extremely low attributing collective sum absorption absorbing consequences even assuming successes, mortality Law taint consequences remaining utterly unimaginable exceeding limits... Furthermore allocating partial absorption substituting human bearing capacities remaining entirely unknown similarly."
Jasmine expelled releasing sigh transmitting Gou Wen's utterances directly forwarding addressing surrounding Nari crowds constituting near-complete human demographic spanning Saint-Nazareth perfectly.
Elizabeth listening corresponding revelations fragilely raised pupils hastily hoisting arms hoarsely vocalizing,
"No... unrelated them completely I..."
"Heard pronunciations confirmed! Repercussions aligned correspondingly judging inability handling consequences Nari people kindly rise departing immediately."
Crowded demographics transmitted conversational buzzes amidst minority individuals immediately standing vacating premises simultaneously executing bowing gestures honoring Golden Palace direction prior lowering head continuously pacing swift departures exiting scene promptly.
Outskirts boundaries multiple officials spat discharging saliva donning gentlemanly hats mounting carriages vocally calling drivers,
"Ah haste accelerating departure! Tormenting previously insufficiently now finally facing demise. Ah hurry stand rising! Why departing hasting? Knowing beforehand adopting automaton driven carriages denying employment statuses entirely!"
Multiple Nari residents rotated reversing departing yet majorities lingered maintaining static positionings staying present observing Golden Palace preceding regions.
Suspended firmament solar entities experiencing daytime fierce combats eventually commenced sinking downward trajectories dimming radiance persistently, yet slanted sunlight beams illuminating striking Golden Palace brickwork rebounding casting radiant glows illuminating plaza foregrounds immaculately.
Internal external stabilizing soldiers knelt completely armored suits clanking crisply respectively; previously mandated maintaining distant repositionings instructed explicitly Elizabeth regarding Saint-Nazareth coastal navic fleets similarly retaining worries executing democratic voting procedures determining collective absorbing disobeying command consequences steering back coastal regions anew.
Unexplainably Golden Palace dialogic communications seemingly channeled soulwards entering auditory networks encapsulating Nari individuals respectively universally.
Naval commanders positioning vessel decks distantly observing Saint-Nazareth directional coordinates dropping kneeling concurrently knocking heads grounding surfaces.
Elizabeth endured agonizing monitoring refusing departing Nari masses, singular addition aggravating body quakings amplifying intensities continually.
Amidst populated demographics similarly capturing glimpses noticing departed Nari extensive durations precisely newly restrained Isabelle previously ordered arrested directly...
Kneeling precisely amidst crowded figures raising pupils carrying sorrowful resolute expressions watching Elizabeth identically.
"I decline... no... sister... everything here wholly me myself... 'tis my personal fault intrinsically..."
Jasmine raised brandished sword carrying complicated glances peering present Elizabeth lightly uttering mirroring delivering judgments likewise,
"Elizabeth, remove prosthetic eye immediately commencing ritual protocols momentarily..."
"Deny disappointing subjects collectively."
Elizabeth maintaining crimson eye contours turning heads focusing elevated positioning Jasmine looking downward directly herself concurrently.
Presenting internal vision lacking victor mimicking mockings delivering sole thread complicated grief purely.
"Crack crack!"
Combatting prolonged durations existing Crevice presently returning completely silent rendering absolute quietness, Elizabeth eventually bowed heads newly raising quivering hand limbs afresh.
Lowered eyelids projecting surfacing past fears previously held internally.
Dreading darkness phenomenons...
Yet alongside countless massed kneeling prayers respiratory noises steadying quaking hand limbs gradually stabilizing thereby ascending tracking facial cheekbones progressing vertically.
Surface visualizing preceding instances sharing identical perspectives Heon transmitting concluding scenes lastingly captured visually.
Blood-soaked Fisher face loaded pure hatred looking "herself" mirroring appearances...
Fisher arguably already conceded dead hearts entirely regarding herself effectively.
Personal pursuits fundamentally...
Simply wishing returning past historical moments alongside himself functionally.
Spawning visual imagery precipitating abruptly Fisher concluding fully loaded hatred facial expressions finally stabilized quivering limbs appropriately. Sequential succeeding instances digit tips stretching overriding eyelid constraints securely latching grasping intra-orbital prosthetic ocular implants.
"Squelch!"
"Ahhhh! Woo hoo hoo..."
Agonizing noises resonating stemming Empress vocal channels instilling phobias delivering tremblings causing complete Nari populaces kneeling squeezing eyelids closing shut tightly pressing palms interlocked amplifying grips increasingly tighter continually.
Elevated firmaments Pandora phantom scattering dissipating gradually, terrestrial grounds dropping draining cascading blood trails dropping facial contours falling Elizabeth grounding surfaces. Dual golden prosthetic eyeballs twisting rotating looking referencing observing weeping bleeding tears continuously trickling down Elizabeth contours...
Yet succeeding instances dwelling bloodied eyeballs accommodating shattered Laws firmly clenched grabbed securely Jasmine palm centers intended mending Xuan Can saving life proceedings.
"Ritual immediately starting!!"
Populated demographics remained absolutely motionless excluding exclusively rear backgrounds densely packed regions singular pair blue-gold scattering irised pupils gradually withdrawing visual lineaments rapidly vanishing original position missing completely undetectable subsequently.
