Lord of the Truth-Chapter 359 Side Damage
"Evren Duchy's capital… Heh~" Robin nodded when he heard these words and let out a long sigh, then started looking around again and examining more carefully, 'so that's what Billy meant'
The disappearance of the ruling class, no matter how tyrannical it is, results in nothing but destructive chaos.
All the decisions and agreements that were between that ruling class and other governments or major merchants would disappear into thin air with them.
All the huge farms that is responsible of feeding the major public are cut off, it not totally abandoned
The army, the police, and all government institutions would disintegrate and lose all their meaning, and with the disappearance of the executive authority, bandits and criminals come out to attack the merchants and farmers to control the largest amount of resources to monopolize these commodities and would obviously spread murder, rape and terror among the people doing so.
It is an inevitable chain of events that is inescapable except with the establishment of a new government as quickly as possible, but... even if a brave person could declare the establishment of a government to help the people, who would dare go against the Burtons orders?
Forgetting about the orders not to establish any organizations, there are even orders that prohibit everyone from entering the Knighthood Realm!
How is anyone supposed to start a government in a world ruled by the strong when you don't have the strength to do so?
The catastrophe that befell the ancestral continent had made nobles and scum equal in strength, as no one is above level ten no matter how rich or poor are you, in a situation like this, it also means that everything the noble families once had is no a public property!
This caused the spread of energy cultivation techniques and heavenly law techniques among everyone after it was the preserve of nobles, now there is no longer any difference between people, there are only gangs and ordinary people...
Huge numbers of individuals who have joined gangs have all the means needed to cultivate up to the level of a Saint!
But even though they have all that they need, they would still reach the tenth level of Energy Foundations and then stop, for fear of meeting one of the Red Demons.
In addition to all this, Evren has a special position unlike any other place in the Ancestral Continent
Here, Robin not only ordered the eradication of the ruling class and those in the Knighthood realm but also ordered the extermination of the entire bloodline of the Evren family...
Jura City, for example, had too many families and residents other than the Burton family, hundreds of thousands of them!
But all the shops, restaurants, farms, factories, and training academies belonged to members of the Burton family!
They owned all the important joints of the city so that they could easily run the city themselves even if all the other inhabitants left under any circumstances.. and this strategy was adopted by all the great families in the capital of their lands
About two hundred thousand Evren family members were exterminated in one night in an unprecedented disaster, wiped off the face of the continent, and wiped with them the life of this city.
Basically, there were even no big merchants and farmers left to be attacked by gangs and monopolizing their goods!!
A state of panic hit the capital a day after the incident when people felt the coming danger, and street fights and random cases of vandalism began, every man was trying to collect any bread crumbs to suffice his family during the trip to go to another place.
With that, another massacre, no less horrific than the previous one, hit the city.
By the end of that week, more than a million citizens had been killed, and the rest began to fall one by one from starvation until the city reached what it is today... A city filled with ghosts of the living and the dead. freℯ𝓌e𝚋𝐧𝘰vℯl.𝐜𝚘𝗺
After about a minute of looking around, Robin came back and fixed his eyes on the woman and her son
"EEEE---" frightened when Robin looked back at her, she pressed her back against the wall again, as if she wished she could pass through.
Robin ignored the woman's reaction and kept his eyes on her and her son
keeping his eyes on the results of his actions...
Robin sighed again, put his right hand behind his back, and then inserted his Spiritual Sense into his Space Ring, and out of nowhere a long piece of bread the size of his arm appeared.
Then he faked a smile and took his hand behind his back and made a throwing motion at the woman without getting any closer, then spoke with the fake smile still on his face, "Sorry, I don't have any more food, that's all I have for now."
The woman looked at the large piece of bread that fell on her son's stomach in shock, lifted it up, and slowly brought it close to her nose, then she started squeezing her face so hard that a drop of tears came down at the end...
That is it... There is no doubt... the smell of a fresh breed that she almost forgot.
"Thank you... thank you…." The woman embraced the piece of bread with one hand and brought her closer son to her with the other for a moment, then began to take small pieces of bread and feed her little one.
She did not suspect for a moment that this bread was poisonous or something like that, but perhaps she hoped that it is.
Die eating a fresh piece of bread... it would be the best possible death in their current situation.
Robin kept looking at this sight for a few more seconds before turning around and walking in the middle of the road again.
Robin knew that a piece of bread wouldn't make a difference, most likely the woman and her son wouldn't survive another month, and all because of his decisions, because of his revenge against Duke Donald Evren...
Does this woman deserve what happened to her and her family? of course not.
Did Robin regret the decisions he made? ...No.
Such women are considered secondary damages that occur in all wars and in all crises. If he went back in time, he would most likely follow the same sequence of events again!
most likely...
"No no please Nooo----"
Robin's train of thought was suddenly cut off by a woman's voice screaming in a frightened voice
He looked behind him quickly to see what was going on and found a naked thick-haired man, holding the piece of bread on his left, and a pointed piece of bone on his right.
The pointed bone pierced the neck of the emaciated woman... She died instantly.
"YOU..!!" Out of anger, Robin almost sent a flame ball to turn that person to ashes, but he restrained himself at the last moment.
"Hee... Hehe... HEHEHEHE... COUGH COUGH" that man fell on the ground while embracing a piece of bread and laughed hysterically, or at least he tried to...
The condition of that person was no better than the woman, Robin could see his entire skeleton with the naked eye, he can count it bone by bone
It was simply a battle of survival and the man chose that he would fight for his life...
Robin's eyes turned to the little boy whose death is now certain without his mother, even if Robin cures him completely, the little kid will not survive in a world like this, it would only increase his misery...
With difficulty, Robin raised his hand and took out a needle of energy, and sent it toward the child's head.
*Swoooosh*
With the same broken gaze towards the sky, with the same painful features and squeezed body... the child breathed his last.
*taa.. taa.. taa..*
"Go away... I have a weapon... Go away.."
At the last moment, before Robin turned to leave, he heard the voice of that naked man and looked at where the man was looking, and with the out of his eyes, he saw a shadow approaching the scene of the accident.
After the screams of the naked man, the shadow left him alone and began to approach the corpse of the mother and her son with saliva flowing 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨m
It was the dog that fought with the woman a while ago
*Bam Bam Bam*
Robin put his hand over his heart and clenched it quickly, he didn't need to guess what would happen to these two bodies soon.
He wasn't aware that he still could feel pity for someone's death after all those he had directly or indirectly killed
He turned around hastily and took a few harried steps, leaving that scene behind him, still not sure where he was going, but he was sure of one thing, the number of questions he had to think about had increased by one...
