Meredith left.

　　Todd finally understands now why this woman tried to dissuade herself from embarking on the road of tyrant.

　　Think about it now, will those who gain power really fall into the pleasure of power as she said, and eventually forget their original intentions and become unable to extricate themselves?

　　 Todd could not give his own answer, but he had heard a word in his previous life.

　　 Between humans and beasts, there is only a thin wall. What really knocks down this wall is the desire hidden deep in my heart.

　　 Throwing away these complicated thoughts in his head, Todd turned his attention to his eyes.

　　 Going to the end of the room, Todd took the Silent Gun from the wall, unwound the linen cloth, looked at the bright red flowing on the gun body, and felt the breath contained in his hand.

　　Todd was thinking, in Skaha's mouth, those creatures that destroyed the Linglan Empire thousands of years ago, mastered such a powerful force of the Spear of Silence, is it also the reason for their depravity and self-destruction?

　　 Infused the soul power of the body into the spear, and under Todd's intentional traction, Silence let out a slow and steady hum.

　　 Recalling the use of the spear during this period, Todd gradually discovered that as long as Silence was aimed at any living object, the spear would automatically lock the opponent's dark matter band and control the direction.

　　 principle?

　　 Todd tried to analyze the spear using the perspective and eagle eyes of the tyrant form, and the result was only a bunch of unexplained silicon-based molecular structures.

　　 If you want to truly understand the power contained in this long gun, you may need to find top physicists. Relying only on his academic ability, I am afraid that it will be difficult to crack the mystery.

　　 Hung up the Gun of Silence again, Todd walked down the stairs and came to the living room on the first floor.

　　 Deirdre got up from the recliner, looked at him concerned and said, "Your face is not very good."

　　 Evie leaned against the wall and said coldly, "Did that woman say something?"

　　 Todd shook his head slightly: "Evie, do you remember that you once asked me a question."

"problem?"

　　 "You once asked me, Twilight City and Froststone City are like two wagons that are moving away from each other. They are already moving on two completely different roads. You ask me, have you ever thought of driving them together?"

Evie nodded: "Yes, I did ask. As a king, everything you do in Twilight City and everything in Froststone City are completely different. I don't understand, what is there in this way? necessary?"

　　 Toddy rubbed his cheek and said with a wry smile: "I did this out of my fear."

　　 "Fear?!"

　　 "It took me a lot of hard work to manage Twilight City and Froststone City to where they are today. I don't want to destroy them for my own sake."

　　 Evie didn't seem to understand Todd's thoughts: "I don't understand where your worries come from. Are you worried that your people and believers will no longer be loyal?"

　　 Todd raised his neck and looked to the ceiling, and sighed, "I am not worried about my people, I am worried about myself...I am worried that I will change in the future..."

Todd continued: "Meridis has something that has indeed been confirmed by history... Those monarchs who were enterprising and resourceful in their youth, but in the later stages of the dust settled, most of them became cruel and selfish. insensitive."

"So, regarding Twilight City and Froststone City, I am actually experimenting with two different roads. Twilight West City is to let the vast majority of the people, based on reason and enlightenment, try to manage themselves; as for the believers of Froststone City Guys, I conceal part of the truth from them, and run this country through the centralization and restraint of deity beliefs."

　　 Todd spreads out his hands towards Evie: "Which way is more conducive to the continuation of the race and the development of the country, I can't give a conclusion now, I can only continue to observe and analyze..."

　　 Compared to Deirdre's dumbfounded, Evie shook his head irritably.

　　 She walked to the window, slammed the window abruptly, pointed to the temple with her finger, and said, "Come and listen!"

　　 Todd listened, and there was a sound of praise and prayer that resounded across the sky.

　　 "Son of the gods protect us!"

　　 "I must go to God's Domain after I die!"

　　 "Death is no longer a shackle!"

Evie looked at Todd and said categorically: "I don’t want to think about the headaches you mentioned! In my opinion, deception or truth is good, as long as it can make the people feel happy, That is a successful monarch! As for the future...what is the use of worrying about those things now?!"

　　 Todd laughed blankly. He looked at the tall and heroic woman and said after a moment: "These words really resemble your style..."

　　 Todd walked to Evie's side and listened to the words praising the gods outside the window, and said softly: "Perhaps you are right, but the point is now. It's useless to think about the future things now..."

　　——————————

　　 In May 1175, half a year after the battle between Todd and Cú Chulainn, it was also the sixth year that he came to another world.

　　 A trivial incident occurred in Froststone City-a woman was confirmed by a shaman doctor that she was pregnant for one month.

　　 But for Todd, this is a big deal—because the pregnant woman is Deirdre.

　　 When Todd heard the news from Shaman Minnie, for a moment, he doubted his ears.

　　 "You mean, Deirdre is pregnant?"

　　 Minnie, with a cane, looked at Todd with a surprised look: "I have repeatedly confirmed that she has indeed been pregnant for a month."

　　 Todd sat in a chair and didn't recover for a long time.

　　Minnie glanced at Evie beside her, leaned slightly towards Todd, and walked out of the room.

　　 Evie looked at the bedroom on the second floor, and said to herself angrily: "It's obviously that I try more times, why is she the one who won the lottery?"

　　 Todd's mouth slowly bends an arc, and the whole person seems to slowly recover from the huge shock.

　　 "I'm going to be a father soon..." Todd closed his eyes and said with a smile: "I always thought that I, who gave up my human form and embarked on the road of tyrants, would never have children anymore..."

　　 Evie raised her eyebrows and said helplessly: "I will let my Valkyrie sisters stay by Deirdre's side and be responsible for her safety before she gives birth to a child."

　　 walked to the door, Evie turned towards Todd, who was still immersed in great happiness, and dropped a sentence: "During this time, don't touch Deirdre, you know what I mean..."

　　 Ignoring Evie's teasing, Todd went straight to the bed in the second-floor bedroom ~lightnovelpub.net~ Deirdre lying on the bed, stroking her flat belly, with a joyful smile on her face.

　　 Todd sat next to Deirdre and gently held her hand: "We will have a baby soon..."

　　 "Is it a boy or a girl?" Deirdre's beautiful and refined profile made Todd faintly see the glory of motherhood: "What about the name? There are clothes, cribs, toys..."

　　 Todd shook Deirdre’s hand and motioned her to calm down: "Those things are still far away. The most important thing is to get your body healthy and take a break..."

　　 Deirdre smiled and nodded.

　　 Todd looked at the woman beside him and said softly, "Deirdre, I should say sorry to you, since you are with me, I don’t spend much time with you..."

Deirdre turned his head and looked into Todd's eyes: "I grew up in a tribe. Because of my alien identity, no one wants to approach me. When I reach adulthood, my father will form an alliance with Conchi Urban. Not as a hostage, staying in the arena and struggling to survive..."

　　 raised his head and looked at the room in front of him, Deirdre said with a smile: "The years I have lived in this small building have been the happiest time I have ever had in my life."

　　 Leaning his upper body and gently kissing Todd's lips, Deirdre blushed and said: "A woman's happiness does not lie in how much she possesses now, but depends on whether the future is good."

　　 Todd sighed and gently hugged Deirdre into his arms, speechless for a long time.
