Ian: I Won't Put Up with Their Nonsense

Ian didn't seem to care much.

But.

With Elena stopping him, Younian could only watch helplessly, never getting a chance to experience what it felt like to ride in Flying Saucer.

Soon, after experiencing the convenience of this high-tech house...

The group entered a room, Younian reiterated his purpose to Ian.

It turns out that the Gogar Royal Family was misled by their ministers.

They wanted to pass on the information about Ian's current location to V5.

Certainly.

Most people were unwilling to offend Ian rashly, and the faction led by Egina was dedicated to preventing all of this from happening.

However, the faction in power is clearly more influential and advocates for this.

So.

Egina's arrangement for Younian to come was both a reminder to Ian and a gesture of goodwill towards him.

To some extent.

The other party also hoped to get Ian's help and support.

"I see. Now that you mention it, it reminds me of something..."

Ian suddenly realized.

Then he remembered that someone had tried to assassinate him before, and... Elena, who was standing next to him, also knew about it, so he calmly began to tell the story.

Ian remembers it very clearly.

If it weren't for "Iron Shell" taking the sniper bullet back then, Ian might not even be alive now.

It could be said that that was the closest Ian, who was still immature, ever came to death.

There were two groups of people arranged to come here at that time.

One group consisted of people sent by noble ministers.

Another.

It was Elena Egina had arranged to come here.

Hearing Ian calmly recount the story, both of them felt the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

Especially Elena, whose body trembled slightly; it was a memory she least wanted to recall.

Honestly.

She was implicated by those people at the time, and happened to run into Ian when he was angry.

Upon hearing Younian's words, Ian said calmly.

"It seems there are still some stubborn people in your country!"

"Alright, I understand why you've come. Although it's unnecessary, I still want to thank Princess Ejina for the reminder..."

Ian now understood why Kim hadn't called him directly.

Kim must have guessed what Ian was thinking.

For a powerful figure like Ian, frankly speaking, the boundaries between nations have become blurred.

Or rather, worldly rules have long been unable to restrain him.

That is precisely why.

Jin Cai didn't speak rashly, but let Egina try it out.

Princess Egina clearly knew Ian's strength, and given her relationship with Kim, she naturally hoped to win Ian over by showing goodwill.

Regardless of the outcome or Ian's attitude, it will ultimately be a positive outcome.

Certainly...

All of this stemmed from the hope that Ian would step in and help her seize power within the country.

Kim, being quite intelligent, had likely already guessed the choice Ian might make, and therefore remained silent.

Let Ian make his own decision.

Clearly, he didn't know what stance to take when explaining this to Ian, since it was all caused by factional infighting within the Gogar Royal Family.

He was clearly on Egina's side, so he didn't speak up.

So that Ian wouldn't let his influence affect his own judgment.

Unfortunately... whether this is a power struggle within the Gogar Royal Family or not is irrelevant.

I'll say it again.

Ian is no longer bound by such worldly rules.

He was fine staying here, and it was fine as long as we didn't provoke him. But once he offended Ian, whether the Gogar Royal Family still needed to exist was entirely up to Ian.

This is not because Ian is unkind, but because his kindness is compassion based on his immense power.

But this is by no means an attitude of letting others bully us!

Whether it's V5 or Sashado, Ian treats them the same way: if they don't mess with me, fine, but if they dare to mess with me, I'll scatter their ashes!

Therefore.

Younian then witnessed the duality of Ian before him.

He could receive them amiably, and even tolerate Younian's slight offenses, which didn't bother him; for Ian, nothing was too serious.

But... when it became clear that someone was indeed secretly trying to "harm" him.

Ian displayed an extreme indifference to life, a ruthless disregard for human life that required dispelling such thoughts and deterring the other party from repeating the offense, even if it meant leaving a million corpses behind!

Therefore, Younian and Elena met.

Ian first slowly closed his eyes, rubbed his forehead, then opened his eyes and spoke calmly.

"Even if you don't say it, I can probably guess that the ones cooperating with the First Prince you're talking about are probably still those same noble ministers from last time."

"They plotted this against me for their own benefit. The main reason they dared to do this is because they weren't afraid enough..."

They weren't worried about death coming upon them...

"It's also my fault. I was too easy to talk to. I've been busy with other things for a while and completely forgot about this."

"However, from now on, I will not give them any more opportunities to provoke me."

Ian's tone sounded off.

Younian and Elena didn't dare to breathe. They exchanged a glance, each with their own guesses. Younian gasped and quickly spoke.

"Lord Ian, if you're willing, Princess Egina should be able to handle this matter perfectly for you, and prevent those guys from doing anything out of line!"

After all, Younian had once served the royal family, and at this crucial moment, he stood up to try and exonerate the royal family.

Ian smiled slightly upon hearing his words.

He slowly stood up, gently patted his shoulder, and said softly while the other man remained stiff.

"Younian, although you've spent a lot of time with those people, you still don't understand them enough..."

"Suffering makes people grow. As parasites who feed on this country, they will never understand how foolish their actions were without experiencing absolute pain."

"I have my own judgment when it comes to handling these kinds of matters..."

"There's no need to meticulously analyze which nobles are good and which are bad, which royal families are good and which are bad. In short... kill some and replace some, leave some alive. No one will be wronged. Those who survive will, from now on, be good to the people. Do you believe that?"

Upon hearing Ian's absurd statement, Younian's pupils contracted slightly.

Just then, he heard Ian smile at him.

"From what you just said, you were approved by Princess Egina to be the steward of her child, which is why you decided to work for her? That's interesting. I can tell you're a smart person. I look forward to nurturing that child well and seeing how he grows."

Ian continued talking to himself, while Younian was completely confused.

However, he could sense it.

The other party definitely harbored a murderous intent at that moment!

He suspected that Princess Egina's judgment was wrong. He couldn't be sure if the other party intended to eliminate the royal family as well, but he was certain that he didn't want to see such an outcome.

Whether they are nobles or royalty, this country needs them...

Although this is his selfish opinion.

But even Younian, who had a completely open and honest heart towards his country, thought the same thing.

Unfortunately... he encountered Ian, who, once he made a decision, found it very difficult to change his stubborn mind.

He muttered something.

"That guy Jin, he's always causing me trouble. He could have taken care of all those guys, so I wouldn't have had to do anything..."

"Really... could it be to appease his pregnant wife's emotions?"

"This guy wants me to be the bad guy!"

As he spoke, Ian pulled out a pink [Anywhere Door] from inside the house.

He then opened it, and casually said to Younian and Elena, who were standing there in place.

"Are you going back together?"
