Chapter 188 The Mystery of Shura and the Truth Behind Lufa's Defection (Part 2)
"What? Is that possible? What do you mean?"
The method of the road is incomprehensible.
What do you mean by "can't be used"? Doesn't the armor work once you have a summoner? Are the usage conditions very strict?
Is this related to the characteristics of the Shura Armor?
Is it because I don't have enough information?
Originally, most of the information about the Shura Armor came from legends.
The birthplace of the Flame Star, the Asura Armor.
At the very center of the Yan Emperor's altar, there is no record of the Asura Armor. To be more precise, there is not a single piece of literature or cultural material to be found.
"Brother Yan, can you tell me what you mean?"
The road was unusually polite.
Because the matter is very important.
This was something he had always been certain of.
Emperor Yan chuckled.
He's not one to keep secrets.
What kind of person do you think Peele is?
"What kind of person is he...?"
Lu Fa pondered.
At this moment, he has countless reasons to criticize Peele, but if he were to give a serious answer,
He tried to be as objective as possible.
Unaffected by emotions.
“Peale was once a man who shared my lofty ideals,”
Lufa's black robes fluttered once more.
The hollow head looked up at the sky.
His gaze seemed to pierce through time and space, returning to the years when he fought alongside Peel.
"He was extremely shrewd and adept at managing the internal affairs of Ares. He skillfully balanced the various forces, enabling Ares to recover quickly after the war, with the people living in peace and the economy flourishing. He was truly a capable minister in governing the country."
A complex expression appeared on Lu Fa's unseen face, a mixture of nostalgia for the past and deep sorrow for the current situation.
"His series of policies, like a gentle spring breeze and nourishing rain, have nurtured every inch of Ares, giving it new life and vitality. Whether it is the comprehensive education system or the efficient administrative system, they all demonstrate his extraordinary wisdom and foresight."
Lufa had to admit that without Peel's assistance in domestic affairs...
Ares's revival won't come so quickly.
“However,” Lufa’s tone suddenly changed, “power and desire ultimately blinded him. The ambitious and capable Peele of the past had vanished, replaced by a suspicious, narrow-minded dictator.”
In order to consolidate his position, he did not hesitate to kill his former comrades, dragging Ares into a dark abyss...
Lufa spoke at length.
But Emperor Yan only heard a little bit.
"It means he was once very righteous, and then he turned bad..."
Lu Fa: "…………"
You can't talk too much with this kind of person.
He couldn't understand.
"Correct!"
"it is good."
Emperor Yan smiled.
His idea was further corroborated.
He spoke slowly.
"The Asura Armor isn't something just anyone can use. As for why, I can't tell you since the Asura Armor isn't in my possession yet."
Emperor Yan was not entirely stupid.
He's just not good at various strategies.
"Huh? Then?"
"If that's the case, then it means he's not capable of unleashing the full power of the Asura Armor, even worse than you are now. The Asura Armor would be a waste in his hands... He can't use it."
Emperor Yan was very certain.
After obtaining this crucial information
Lufa's mind raced, and an idea popped into his head.
"You mean he couldn't use it, and then, in order to prevent me from using it, he fabricated a lie and shelved the Shura Armor?"
Lu Fa was stunned.
This was an angle he had never considered before.
"Perhaps, Peele is a complete hypocrite? It's not that he's turned bad, but rather that his true feelings are slowly coming to light?"
Lufa was somewhat unable to accept this fact.
But considering what Emperor Yan said, he found it increasingly reasonable.
Because he had never thought of things that simply.
Is it possible that my intelligence is inferior to that of Emperor Yan?
It turns out I'm a complete clown...
Was even the initial close friend a fake? Was I not betrayed, but deceived?
A complex mix of emotions surged within him, creating a turbulent storm. Anger, regret, shock, and self-deprecation crashed against his rational defenses wave after wave.
He felt angry, a burning rage born of being deeply deceived.
The trust and loyalty I've shown to Peel over the years now seem like a farce.
He served Peel tirelessly, doing everything in his power to revive Ares, only to find himself merely a pawn in the enemy's game, manipulated and used at will.
The feeling of being fooled made his hands tremble involuntarily, his teeth clenched so tightly that they cracked, and a fire of revenge burned in his heart. He wished he could return to Ares immediately, confront Pierre face to face, and make him pay a heavy price for what he had done.
Shock confused him. He had always believed that Peel's transformation was a corruption caused by power, but he never thought that it was an elaborate hoax from the beginning.
This new realization seemed to cause his worldview to collapse. He began to re-examine everything he knew and began to doubt every fact that he had once firmly believed.
A self-deprecating laugh echoed in his heart; he laughed at his own foolishness and his own arrogance.
He once thought he was Ares's hero and an indispensable partner to Pierre, but now he finds himself to be nothing more than a pathetic creature being manipulated.
He felt like a clown, performing energetically on stage while the audience below just watched him make a fool of himself.
Even though the audience member was just Peele alone, it was still unacceptable.
Although Emperor Yan cannot see what Lu Fa looks like now.
But the resentment in the black robe was indeed much deeper.
Emperor Yan sensed the changes in Lu Fa's aura.
"It's become a bit richer, but it's still a little lacking..."
Emperor Yan murmured.
But Lufa was still caught in a complex emotional state. He wasn't completely vulnerable; he was still reviewing some details. Gradually, he became certain of the Flame Emperor's guess: Pierre had never seemed so pure from the beginning...
He was simply unaware of it because he was immersed in the story.
After recovering.
He spoke slowly, "Brother Yan, actually I didn't hide the Asura Armor Summoner that thoroughly... Please forgive me for lying to you before."
