147: Agares's confession, the union of two powerful men
Agares truly didn't know what to say at this moment.
Because Long Xingyu's words...
Had completely revealed his thoughts.
He had no possibility of refuting them.
He truly did want to resist the Demon race and rebel against Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu.
However, he hadn't expected this. He had originally chosen to conceal everything because he was afraid of scaring Long Xingyu and the others.
But unexpectedly, in the end, it was Long Xingyu who directly exposed everything, a situation that startled Agares himself.
After all, this action was too bold.
Didn't he worry that he wasn't at all what Long Xingyu thought, and that after Long Xingyu said all this, he would go back on his word at the last minute and tell Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu everything?
Agares was certain.
Once he told Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu these things, even if Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu wouldn't directly launch a Holy War, he would definitely cause trouble for the Temple Alliance and for Long Xingyu.
This was an absolute certainty.
Because he knew the Second Demon God Pillar, and the importance of the Moon Demon God, even more than Moon Demon God Agares himself!
However, it was clear that Agares would not choose to do so.
Because Long Xingyu's words hit him right where he lived.
However, he was curious about one thing.
"I want to know, why do you think I want to betray Feng Xiu?" Agares asked.
He needed an explanation.
If Long Xingyu said he was just making it up, then even if Agares cooperated, the effort would be greatly reduced.
"I said before that the Demon race is a being that won't act without profit. Even if Yue Ye is the girl you love most, without sufficient profit, you wouldn't choose to handle the merchant guild matter, even if you are behind it."
"Moreover, a mere Yue Ye Merchant Guild has virtually no value, so how could you use it as a bargaining chip to make a deal with me?"
"Furthermore, although I entered the state of Heaven-Human Unification earlier and couldn't perceive anything in the outside world, nor did I know what happened at the Bear Demon God's place before.
But the Throne had already completely perceived everything within it and later told me that that beast Oliver would attack me, with your instigation. Your goal, naturally, wasn't to kill me, but to make the Demon God Emperor go back on his word and put him on the spot."
"This matter is tantamount to treason."
Long Xingyu said calmly.
His words seemed capable of killing.
Every word struck at the heart.
Suddenly, Moon Demon God Agares was stunned.
It seemed his actions this time weren't as meticulous as he thought.
Unconsciously.
There were so many flaws?
Agares couldn't help but admire Long Xingyu's perception and deduction abilities, as well as the courage to directly state all this.
He truly lived up to his reputation as the strongest Knight of Divine Seal of Judgment and Inquisition in history.
"Since that's the case, I will also be frank. My goal is to overthrow the Demon race, to make the Demon race bloodline in me, and in all human-demon hybrids, completely disappear, so that they can truly become individuals!"
Agares said calmly, but in his words, his eyes were not as indifferent as his speech.
As the Second Demon God Pillar, and currently the second strongest being on the Holy Demon Continent, Agares held a high position. Countless beings would call him "Lord Agares" upon seeing him.
Yet, who could know that he actually had a tragic childhood, and the source of this tragic childhood was precisely because he was a human-demon hybrid?
At this point, he also began to explain his thoughts to Long Xingyu.
In Moon Demon God Agares's early experiences, he had witnessed the tragic fate of many human-demon hybrids.
Even after he grew up, he still couldn't change the fate of these people, and even due to his identity as a Moon Demon God, he couldn't interact with them.
Because once someone knew the Moon Demon God's thoughts about these human-demon hybrids, an even more tragic fate awaited them.
It was precisely because of this situation that he felt a deep sense of frustration and loneliness, causing Moon Demon God Agares to increasingly detest his own Demon race bloodline. Now, he was becoming even more extreme, wanting to see the Demon race perish and for them to become normal beings.
As long as the Demon race was destroyed and the Demon God Pillars were completely suppressed or even destroyed, their Demon race bloodline would gradually disappear.
And even if there were some remnants, they would eventually vanish slowly through reproduction amidst the intertwining of eras, turning into nothing.
And this was one of Agares's ideas.
And after hearing him completely reveal all of this.
Long Xingyu also smiled.
He said, "A Demon's body, a Human's heart."
"Should the day come when this can truly happen, I will then devote all my strength to create a small world where the Demon race can survive, together with you."
"As for those mixed-blood Demons and pure-blood humanoid Demons who can be classified as human, they can decide, according to their wishes, whether to belong to the human race or to be with you."
Long Xingyu said slowly.
In his memory, under the original circumstances, Agares had still been alive in the end and had cooperated with his son, Long Haochen, to create a small world exclusively for the Demon race.
That was the Demon Realm of Divine Seals 2 ten thousand years later.
And he could naturally do the same.
There was definitely no problem.
"So open-minded?" Although Agares somewhat believed Long Xingyu, he instinctively still felt a bit strange: "Aren't you afraid that I will treat you as I treat Feng Xiu?"
His meaning was clear: if he could betray Feng Xiu now, why couldn't he betray Long Xingyu in the future?
He was surprisingly so trusting of him.
"Do not use a person you doubt; do not doubt a person you use."
"With your ability, you absolutely don't need to come here to be a spy for me."
"The dignified Moon Demon God Agares would not stoop to such things, and by cooperating with me, you can accomplish things that you, as Moon Demon God Agares, cannot. Under these circumstances, how could you betray me?"
Long Xingyu said calmly.
In some ways, he even understood Agares better than Agares understood himself.
Because he truly knew what Agares would do in the future.
At present, it was merely a retelling.
Hearing this, Agares fell silent.
But he didn't stay silent for long.
He quickly understood.
"You are different from the countless Knight of Divine Seal of Judgment and Inquisition I've known."
"If it weren't for the fact that your temperament truly doesn't fit, I would even think that, based on your words, you should be a Divine Seal Knight of Defense and Command."
Agares smiled.
After a while.
He paused.
A serious expression flashed across his handsome face, and he said directly:
"Happy cooperation!" (End of chapter)
