Chapter 1812 The victor is king, the loser is villain—this is the eternal law of the universe; fictional characters originating from different works.
As the commander-in-chief of the armored forces on the planet Ares, Lufa shares supreme authority with King Peer in the Ares civilization.
Over thousands of years of warfare, the warriors of Ares's Legion, even if they didn't swear allegiance to him, would only obey his orders. He must have had many confidants, and it's estimated that many of them were promoted or trained by him.
He enjoys extremely high prestige in Ares.
Only in this way can we explain why King Peer was so wary of Lufa.
A commander who holds absolute military power is always the greatest threat to the throne.
Therefore, when King Peel suddenly launched an attack and falsely accused Lufa of treason, given Lufa's prestige in the army, he could have directly led his trusted troops to launch a thunderous coup before King Peel had fully controlled public opinion.
He didn't need a large-scale mobilization at all; simply mobilizing his directly subordinate Nether Legion and the Royal Guard fleet stationed in the capital was enough to take control of the entire Ares Central Command within hours.
Since he was able to obtain the Shura Armor and the Gengnu Vajra Pestle later, there's no reason why he couldn't have obtained them before. And with the Shura Armor and the Gengnu Vajra Pestle, he could have killed King Pierre immediately.
If he can complete the power transition before the news spreads to other interstellar civilizations, King Peel, who is dead and unable to testify, will naturally be nailed to the pillar of shame for traitors.
The victor is king, the loser is villain; this is an eternal law of the universe.
However, Lu Fa chose a path that Su Yunqing considered somewhat foolish: to lead the Netherworld Legion in an escape!
This was tantamount to voluntarily confirming the traitor's guilt, allowing King Peel to fabricate evidence at will.
The so-called "energy crystal project" also has many problems.
The massive Afars warship was conducting large-scale energy plundering on the planet's surface, yet no interstellar civilization reported it to the Ares civilization?
The theft of more than 20,000 energy crystals is equivalent to the destruction of the life of more than 20,000 civilizations, and Ares has not even noticed?
The destruction of these planets was even discovered by chance a thousand years later by a three-person patrol.
This means that Ares's ruling system had long been corrupt to the extreme, and the bureaucratic system under King Peer was completely incompetent.
One wrong step, and all the struggles that follow will seem futile and laughable.
Even if he eventually gathers all the energy crystals and returns to Ares, they will only face an even harsher manhunt.
How could King Louis possibly acknowledge the position of these "traitors"?
It's possible that King Louis played a part in the falling out between King Pierre and Lufax.
If you can't influence him, that's fine, but if you do, Su Yunqing doesn't think King Louis will obediently hand over the throne to Lufa.
Unless Lufa is truly capable of easily defeating Ares's armed forces, but that seems highly unlikely.
Su Yunqing still felt that Lu Fa and Qiao Shefei were exaggerating, or perhaps they were unaware of the development speed of the Ares civilization while acquiring the energy crystals.
Himouto! Umaru-chan: "If that's the case, it seems that's true."
Himouto! Umaru-chan: "But back then, Lu Fa's heart was probably more righteous than evil, right?"
Himouto! Umaru-chan: "All I wanted was to restore my own and the Netherworld Legion's reputation. I never thought of killing King Peel or seizing power."
Looking at Su Yunqing's words, Xiaomai also felt that doing this seemed to be the most correct thing to do.
With King Peer dead, it wouldn't be difficult for Ruphat to become the new king of Ares, given his prestige.
He had that ability, otherwise King Peel would have had no reason to be wary of him.
There might be some troubles along the way, but for him, with his Asura Armor, suppressing it wouldn't be a difficult task.
Even other planets might not have any objections.
After all, it was always the Lufa who fought in foreign wars.
They might fear Lufa more than they fear King Peer, and even if they guessed that Lufa had usurped the throne, they might not dare to do anything.
Whatever he does, for Lufa, it's just another round of doing things.
But he ran away anyway, taking with him the Netherworld Legion and Ares' two great treasures, the Asura Armor and the Gengnu Vajra Pestle.
Even if they weren't traitors, they were still traitors.
But at that time, Lu Fa was probably still driven by righteousness over evil. He never thought of usurping the throne or even rebelling. Instead, he wanted to make King Peer regret his decision.
So they just ran away with them and did nothing else.
An ordinary group owner: "That's how it is, which is why I don't know how to comment."
An ordinary group owner said: "When you're a rebel, how can you not be ruthless and hesitant?"
An ordinary group owner said, "They all dare to run away, so why don't they dare to rebel?"
An ordinary group admin: "Sigh"
Su Yunqing sighed, but she also knew that if Lu Fa really did that, there would be no subsequent plot developments.
Regardless of the underlying logic, what Lu Fa and the Netherworld Legion were thinking at the time, and why no one gave Lu Fa "add some clothes," they will eventually head to Earth and await the war with Li Haotian and others in the future storyline.
Lu Fa: "."
What Su Yunqing said was something he had actually thought about over the years.
Back then, he was the highly decorated and beloved commander of the Armor Legion on Planet Ares, fighting to uphold justice in the galaxy.
He held deep-seated beliefs in "justice" and "order".
Even when falsely accused, his initial desire was not for power, but to "clear his name" and return to prove King Peel's mistake in a way that was recognized by the laws of the universe.
In his view, directly murdering the king and rebelling was contrary to the "justice" he upheld, and instead confirmed the crimes imposed on him by King Peel.
Although taking them away from Ares was a form of rebellion and contradicted his initial belief in "justice," he seemed to have overlooked this point at the time, only realizing it later during his continuous acquisition of energy crystals.
But by then, he could never go back; he could only walk down a path to his death.
Perhaps he himself had thought of this, but what he wanted in his heart was a more thorough revenge, to let King Peel see with his own eyes that he would take back everything in a way that King Peel approved of.
So his intense hatred drove him to choose the more extreme path, one that would cause King Peel even more pain.
Lufa: "It's pointless to talk about this now."
Lufa: "I also lack the ability to return to Ares now."
Lu Fa shook his head slightly, putting all his thoughts back into his heart; it was too late to say these things now. If he were the one who joined the chat group, and he was the one from the timeline before everything happened, perhaps he could change the original ending.
But now he is merely a remnant soul residing in an ancient robe, and to change everything, he still needs to rely on the power of the chat group.
An ordinary group admin: "Isn't your Avast still around?"
An ordinary group owner said, "Even if we follow the original storyline, there's still a chance."
An ordinary group owner said: "In fact, even without relying on the chat group, as long as you have seen the memory copy, you can change the future."
An ordinary group admin said: "But you've already joined the chat group, wouldn't it be a waste of time if you didn't take advantage of it?"
An ordinary group owner: "Besides, you shouldn't be short of points."
Although Lu Fa seems to have nothing now, he has a lot of valuable things in his mind. After all, he is the chief of the Ares Armored Forces. Surely he knows the manufacturing methods of the Xingtian, Feiying and Jingang armors?
Even if things don't go well, he should still have a lot of valuable information in his mind, which can be recycled to gain a lot of points; plus the memory copy, it's basically a guaranteed win.
"Ding, the group owner has uploaded a memory copy."
An ordinary group owner: "@Lufa, I've uploaded your memory copy."
An ordinary group admin: "Make your decision after you've read this."
An ordinary group owner said: "You can return to Ares after you become stronger in the future, but some people want to stay on Earth and continue living, so you don't have to force them."
An ordinary group owner commented: "Someone like Ku Fens already has a girlfriend."
The ordinary group admin: "But Qiao is extravagant."
Who would have thought that Qiao Shefei, the former captain of the Purple Nether Division, one of the three major guards of the Netherworld Legion, a man of courage, resourcefulness, and wisdom, would become so cowardly and weak-willed after shedding the bloodthirstiness of a Netherworld demon warrior?
They may even lose courage and confidence, become self-conscious, timid, and soft-hearted towards those who bully them, and dare not fight back.
I doubt even the young Qiao Shefei could have imagined that he would become what he is today.
However, if this hadn't happened, Joe Sheffield would probably have adapted to life on Earth by now and might not have wanted to return to Ares.
At least for the past glory and reputation, there is no longer such an urgent desire to restore them.
Lufa: "I understand."
Since the group admin has spoken, what else can Lu Fa say?
But Kufens has a girlfriend? He actually fell in love with a human from Earth?
Lufa frowned.
And what happened to Qiao Shefei? Why did the group admin stop talking about it afterward?
Does that mean he also found a girlfriend like Kufensi? But if that's all, why didn't the group admin mention it later?
Is there something wrong with this girlfriend?
Thinking of this, Lu Fa shook his head. The memory copy had already been uploaded, and he could just look at the memory copy to know, so why bother thinking about it too much here.
Without any hesitation, he opened the memory copy.
An ordinary group admin: "@Military Uniform Princess, which world are you from?"
An ordinary group owner: "It looks somewhat familiar, but I can't quite place it."
An ordinary group owner: "It seems like a world I've never seen before."
When Su Yunqing saw this name, a character came to mind, but it was from an anime she hadn't seen.
I've only seen snippets of it in short videos.
The richest man in the world: "A world you've never seen before? This is the first time."
The richest man in the city said: "Interesting."
The richest man in the lighthouse said: "Judging from the military uniform alone, I guess he is a character like Esdeath."
Tony smiled with interest after seeing Su Yunqing's words.
Unexpectedly, there are newcomers, and it's an anime that the group owner hasn't seen.
It's quite unique in a way to be familiar with it, know about it, but never seen it.
Princess in Military Uniform: "Haven't you seen it? Then it seems that the world I live in is not as exciting as other works."
Princess in Military Uniform: "However, I think the world I live in must be quite wonderful."
Princess in Military Uniform: "A chat group that spans countless worlds, this setting is really interesting."
Princess in Military Uniform: "I suppose everyone in the chat group, rather than coming from different worlds, is like me, a virtual character from different works, right?"
The richest man in the lighthouse: "???"
Qianwumei Xiaomi: "???"
Boil Daigo into soup: "???"
Erina Nakiri: "???"
A genius among loners: "Do you know that you are a character created by humans?"
Hachiman Hikigaya asked, somewhat incredulously.
Although the "military uniform princess" did not state this point directly, the meaning behind her words was clear enough.
The phrase "like me, a virtual character originating from different works" already demonstrates that she is aware that she is a character in a work "created by humans".
Re: The Creator World.
Altair looked at the chat group in front of her with great interest, and even looked at a few memory instances while the group owner was explaining to another newcomer who had joined at the same time as her.
Although the memory copies were very realistic, even immersive, she could still easily distinguish that these memory copies were essentially different anime and film works.
So the group owner who uploaded these memory copies must be from outside the "world," just like the author who created her world, right?
No, she and the author who created her world are only a part of "this world".
Or rather, it should be the "setting" of "this world".
The Great King of Asgard: "Why are you so surprised?"
The Great King of Asgard: "That's not entirely absent from the messages being sent through the chat groups."
The Great King of Asgard: "If you've taken this into account, what's so strange about knowing that you were created?"
The Great King of Asgard: "He merely knew his true nature beforehand."
Loki was speechless at their surprised expressions.
It's not that there aren't messages in chat groups; it's just a matter of whether you notice them.
At most, the newcomer accepted this fact more easily than they imagined, and even inferred from this that they were also characters in a created work.
But that's not a big deal.
Are there few group members who discover or notice this, yet remain completely indifferent?
"Turning Daigo into soup: It seems there was this message in the chat group."
He boiled Daigo into soup: "Looking at it this way, it seems normal now."
After seeing Loki's words, Daigo said with a look of sudden realization.
He joined the chat group quite early, so he almost forgot about it later.
A genius among loners: "Is that really the case?"
Hachiman Hikigaya frowned slightly.
Although the reason seems to be true, why does he feel that it's not that simple?
Did this newcomer really realize this because of the information she received in the chat group?
