Chapter 1507 - 1017: Either Do Not Do It, or Do It Thoroughly
Looking at everything before him, Serges felt his scalp tingle with fear.
He had participated in the Tri-War before and witnessed battlefields resembling Hell, but even so, the scene before him now ignited a profound fear—an entire city transformed into mountains of corpses and oceans of blood, smoke and fire raging amidst scattered bodies.
Amidst this horrifying tableau stood a towering figure, covered in fresh blood from head to toe, like an envoy of Hell spreading destruction and death. He gripped a War Hammer in his hand, standing still, coldly scanning the massacre around him, resembling an emotionless killing machine.
Simply gazing at him gave one the illusion that the entire world was teetering on the brink of destruction, as though this Steel Warrior was the embodiment of the apocalypse, bringing nothing but death and annihilation to all.
Serges descended from the sky, landing in front of Duanmu Huai. He stared at the Steel Warrior, and just as he opened his mouth to speak—Duanmu Huai raised his hand, cutting him off.
"I hope you won’t ask me what happened here. As far as the Tribunal’s rules, stance, and policy of action, I’ve already explained it in detail to all of you previously. As for the causes and consequences of this matter, as the King of the Demon World, I trust you’re already well aware—there’s no need for me to waste words. So, do you have anything else to say besides those foolish questions?"
"......... I suppose not."
Faced with Duanmu Huai’s preemptive tone, Serges opened his mouth but then forced a bitter smile. Indeed, as Duanmu Huai stated, back when they had first met, Duanmu Huai had meticulously detailed the Tribunal’s goals, rules, and jurisdiction to Serges, as if explaining the properties of a cold, unfeeling weapon.
Once you choose to ignite the weapon, the ending is inevitable.
"Good."
Hearing Serges’ reply, Duanmu Huai nodded.
