Chapter 543: Breakdown
Rage bubbled inside Su Pei’s heart when he heard Dupravel’s reason behind defecting.
He couldn’t believe that Dupravel decided to switch over to the Cult just because he would have died otherwise, as the whole ordeal just smelled fishy and cowardly to him.
"So that’s it?" Su Pei said, his voice laced with venom.
"You turned away from your beliefs the moment things got hard? You shook hands with the devil just to keep your own head?" He asked, as Dupravel tilted his head with the same maddening calm that had defined him throughout their entire duel.
"Were you dropped on your head as a child?" Dupravel asked, as he spun a dagger beside his forehead in a circular motion, signalling to Su Pei that he was a fool.
"Dying for your beliefs is the ultimate honor," Su Pei growled, his glare deepening.
"By defecting you tainted your own legacy... Tainted everything you once fought for."
He accused, however, Dupravel’s expression didn’t change.
If anything, he seemed to pity Su Pei.
"Commander, if you really believe that the righteous faction is ’Righteous’ and that the Cult Of Ascension is ’Evil’, then there’s no point in us having this conversation.
You’re simply not mature enough to understand the universe for what it truly is.
But if you’re ready to accept the fact that both sides are morally gray, then yes, I have a reply that might interest you," Dupravel said, as Su Pei looked away from him in anger, but did not walk away.
