The Golden Throne

Chapter 223: The Final Battle (3)

Liu Feng shut his mouth immediately. He looked away, trying to avoid this conversation. He walked towards Liu Man. 

“Father, are there any tents that we can use? The king of the magical forest, and the king of the dragons require a tent for a private conversation, and I am clueless to which tent I can use.” Liu Feng asked.

“Just use some tent. No one can say anything. Just leave me alone. I have too many things that are going on in my head.” Liu Man said.

Liu Feng nodded and he looked towards Long Che and Bai Lu. He then walked towards the closest tent that he could see. He peeped inside. All that he could see was that there were a few cots, and a few clothes lying around haphazardly. 

He nodded, and he stamped on the ground with a lot of force. Three slabs of earth rumbled up forming three makeshift chairs. The cots on the ground started leveling, and they fell over. It looked pretty messy, but that was not of Liu Feng’s concern. He knew that they wouldn’t say anything, considering that he was the crown prince, and they had no choice but to listen to whatever he did.

“Looks like you are really looking forward to this interrogation. For you to prepare so much.” Bai Lu’s voice came from behind Liu Feng.

Liu Feng turned around. He saw that both Long Che and Bai Lu were inside the tent now, and they were sitting on the two slabs that he had prepared side by side.

“I have nothing to hide. Why would I be afraid? I was open about the entire process to Arad, and I have already told him and His Majesty, the king of the dragon tribe all about my plan to detonate the bomb.” Liu Feng said confidently. 

“He told you about this plan?” Bai Lu raised his eyebrows. 

“What do you think? Would you really believe that a bomb exists in this world that can destroy half of the demon army, and that he would salvage all of the entire war? Of course I didn’t believe him. A weapon like this shouldn’t exist in this world.” Long Che said.

“Your reaction was understandable. You have never been able to look at such a weapon in your life, and you simply did not know that this was possible. But I believed, and I knew that such a thing was possible. It was because I knew that I had the necessary materials that I put this plan forward with such confidence. And as for the method of preparation, it was not like I hid anything. The spirits within me have witnessed every step of the way, and they know exactly what needs to be done to replicate my success. But the question is, would you use it? I debated for hours on whether it was worth it. I am confident that even now, with the detonation of this weapon, thousands of innocents died because they were forced to take part in this war. I only did this because more would die if I didn’t use the weapon.” Liu Feng said.

“What he said makes sense.” Long Che nodded.

“Of course you would favor his words. He is your master, in all essence. I know that after all of this is over, his country or whatever will become the new Kingdom of Fire, and you will be their guardian angel. But do you think that I am going to leave it at this? If he uses this once more, then that is a loss for the continent itself. It can destroy mana itself, and that is a problem.” Bai Lu shouted.

“Wait a minute! If nuclear weapons can destroy mana, then isn’t there a chance that it can create it as well? If I can make a nuclear reactor of sorts, then I can think of mana as a sort of energy and I can use any energy to convert it into mana.” Liu Feng rose up as he thought out loud.

“Do you understand a single thing that he said?” Bai Lu pointed at Liu Feng as if he was looking at a crazy man.

“Not a thing. But I heard something about creating mana or something.” Long Che said.

“Your Majesties! The problem that you have with me is that I accidentally destroyed mana, is it not? Then I shall strive hard and work to make a device that can undo what mistakes I have done. Once the war is over, then I will have time for such behemoth endeavors. As long as you let me do it, I shall not disappoint.” Liu Feng said.

“Do you really think that I would trust you boy?” Bai Lu scoffed.

“I shall work only in Dilheim. You are always welcome to come and make sure that I am working on what I said I was. You can monitor me.” Liu Feng said.

“Do you think that I am just going to waltz into your city? It has the detestable dragons within them. Once the war is over, I will make sure that there is no dragon within a hundred miles of me.” Bai Lu scoffed.

“As usual, you are still stuck in the past. Not a single dragon in our tribe even knows the reason for this hatred that you have towards us, yet they are taught that the unreasonable king of the magical forest will kill them once he lays his eyes upon them. Trust me. We see even humans better than you. Some among them are more morally upright than you are.” Long Che scoffed.

“You dare!” Bai Lu shotued.

“I do. What are you going to do?” 

“Seniors. You are our biggest defense against the two demon lords. Without you two working together, it is going to be impossible to deal with them. Please work together at least until the war is over. After that, I will not interfere.” Liu Feng said.
