Demi-human Girls Completion Manual Chapter 1845 - 173: Victory and Defeat (8k)_2

"I’ll kill you! Elizabeth! You... beast!"

"..."

Elizabeth merely looked down on Moli standing before her. Her hollow golden eyes reflected the murderous intent, and the golden longsword in Moli’s hand suddenly extended, seemingly intending to directly gouge out Elizabeth’s eye to save Xuan Can.

"Clang!"

Elizabeth didn’t move, merely allowing her to brandish the sword, as if she saw through that Moli’s target was her eyes. Only then did she speak emotionlessly,

"It’s useless, the prosthetic eye is bound to me; without my will, you can’t take it off... even if you kill me, the prosthetic eye will disintegrate along with me. No matter what you want, you won’t get it."

Moli’s raised longsword paused slightly, and her furious expression turned to one of confusion at that moment. The ringing in her ears from her emotional breakdown gradually faded, and she once again heard the voice of the Hooked kiss,

"Moli! Moli! Her prosthetic eye can’t be removed by conventional means; only she can do it herself... No matter what, you must persuade her. If it doesn’t work, get Fisher to come down from the gap... Perhaps only Fisher can make her do it."

Moli’s expression was struggling. She looked at the emotionless Elizabeth before her, with tears streaming down her face. Her rage slowly faded, leaving only sorrow.

Her wrist quivered slightly, and the longsword she raised fell to the ground, unable to be supported any longer.

"Clang clang..."

Biting her lip, Moli’s tears fell continuously. She looked at Elizabeth in front of her, still wondering,

"Why... why did you do this? Why, Elizabeth... What did we ever do to you? How can you so casually commit such wrongs? My aunt was so kind, does she have to die just because she was in your way? Why..."

Listening to Moli’s questioning, veins bulged on Elizabeth’s forehead. She sneered, looking at Moli mockingly,

"What don’t you understand? After all these years, how can you still be as naive as you were back then? You’ve seen everything, yet you refuse to ponder over the reasons... You know why? Because you only want to believe what you choose to."

With a slightly dumbfounded expression, Moli watched as Elizabeth pried her hand from its grip on her collar. Elizabeth dusted her hand, gritting her teeth as she looked at Moli,

"Your uncle, the founder of the exploration company, my father’s close friend, was responsible for all of the company’s strategies over the years. It was the biggest force in Nali all these years, didn’t you know this?

"You once asked me why humans, once so weak, began to oppress the demi-humans of the South Continent when they grew stronger. I will tell you now, because the exploration company only pursued profit; in your uncle’s blueprint, whether demi-human, nations, or people, they were all mere commodities, just numbers, do you understand?

"The exploration company invested, my father provided policy convenience; they exploited resources on the South Continent, sold the demi-human population far and wide; to profit from war, during the Nali and Schwali conflict, they preferred to watch soldiers perish rather than let their cannons and weapons go unsold... Do you know who made these decisions? Huh? Do you think your aunt was unaware of these things?"

Elizabeth squinted at Moli in front of her, mocking her naivety,

"Didn’t you personally visit your uncle’s underground palace? Beneath the royal premises lay treasures he hoarded, more than the entire Nali Treasury, do you think that money was just blown in by the wind? Didn’t you see it with your own eyes? Only your Whale-man kin could find that place, do you think it was my Pandora prosthetic eye that manipulated him into his desires?

"I’ll tell you this: your aunt always knew about these matters yet deceived herself, blinded by love, she pretended not to see any of it; even when her beloved was driven by his amplified desire to stay with her forever and killed her, she accepted it willingly... So I must rid the exploration company, the termite corroding our nation and society. Your aunt may be innocent, I’ve never denied she died because of me...

"But don’t talk to me about right and wrong, revenge is revenge, you win, I lose, I pay the price, that’s all there is. You think the world is so beautiful, you believe your Whale-man brethren and her wonderful love story are a pity... The truth is, only because your parents protected you well, and Fisher chose to help you..."

The voice of the Hooked kiss didn’t resound, perhaps because both Xuan Can and the Hooked kiss knew about Mu Xi and Blake’s matters. But after living through several mythical wars over ten thousand years, they had seen too much.

But as Moli looked at Elizabeth, who was also becoming emotional before her, she gasped and took a few steps back, shaking her head, then suddenly threw a punch, landing fiercely on Elizabeth’s face,

"Bang!"

Elizabeth’s true form was no more than a Tenth Rank, this punch directly knocked her to the ground. At that moment, the surrounding crowds also surged forward, the vast population of Saint Nali incomparable to the Whale-man species of the sea floor and the Wutong Trees of the Northern Realm.
