All I Want

Despite the President's massive form almost blotting out the sky, Tilis was barely affected.

It was the mages under her command who were suffering...

Moreover, Tilis had already changed her form of life, and even a pack of hounds couldn't kill her. Luo Wei thought that if she wasn't so bent on fighting the President to the death, escaping would be effortless...

So...

Naya watched Luo Wei's pensive expression with careful attention.

Seeing his hesitant and frustrated look, the grin on her face grew wider.

“Well? Have you made your decision?”

As Luo Wei remained silent, Naya pinched her nose and leaned in closer.

“Or shall I be so kind as to help you analyze the situation?”

Luo Wei glanced at her. Naya raised her head, putting on an expression of deep thought.

“Hmm... First, let’s talk about the mage lady. I think...”

Naya looked into the distance of the hall. “This mage is quite powerful, isn’t she? And from what happened earlier, she’s extremely stubborn and... well, not quite sane. If you were to be with her, I predict a disastrous future for you~”

Naya shook her head with a sigh, putting on an air of genuine concern.

“One day, when she suddenly goes mad again, you won’t be able to control her, and by then, it’ll be too late to regret it! Killing you would be as easy as pie for her~”

“In my opinion~ you should just give up on her!”

Naya fluttered her eyelids seductively. “Why bother with such a dangerous, strong, and unpredictable woman?~”

Luo Wei showed no reaction.

Seeing he wasn't moved, Naya pretended to ponder again.

“Well then...”

“Since you’re reluctant, let’s just move on!”

She pointed at Ophelia with a smile. “This white-haired girl is the emperor’s daughter, isn’t she? She’s got quite a high status in your world, doesn’t she?”

Naya began analyzing for Luo Wei again, putting herself in his shoes.

“She’s so high and mighty, so picky and difficult to deal with, isn’t it hard to get along with her?”

She gave Luo Wei a sympathetic look. “You men don’t like such strong women, do you? If you were to be with her, she’d boss you around, leaving you with no freedom. Scary, isn’t it?”

“So!”

Naya concluded her analysis.

“It’s better to just let her die!!”

Luo Wei glanced at her with a cold sneer. “I really wish you’d just die.”

“Ohoho!” Naya covered her mouth, pretending to be surprised. “You’re angry now!”

Her expression was one of mock astonishment, though the corner of her mouth lifted slightly. “When I said I wanted to kill her, you got all worked up—seems like you really like her, huh?”

Luo Wei stared at her in silence. “What’s your deal today? Did you come here just to be my relationship counselor?”

Naya was all smiles and mischief.

“Alright, alright! Since this one’s out of the question, then…”

Her finger pointed toward Evelyn.

“This woman—nothing special in terms of power or beauty…”

“Hmm… not quite right.”

Naya pondered for a moment. “She does have quite a big chest, though.”

Luo Wei looked at her quietly. The atmosphere between them remained silent for a while.

Naya giggled. “But, what’s so great about big breasts?”

She continued to ruminate. “Uh… Let’s see. You two haven’t known each other for long, have you?”

Naya proceeded with her reasoning. “In my opinion, you really don’t have much of a foundation with the vampire. You’ve only known her for a few days! How can that compare to the white-haired girl or the mage? And right now, with your status, finding a woman like her isn’t exactly difficult, is it?”

She leaned closer to Luo Wei again, her eyes glimmering with temptation.

“Choose the vampire. Let her die for others…”

“Choose the vampire. Let her die for others.!!”

“Choose…”

Luo Wei glanced at her. “Are you done yet?”

Naya paused for a moment.

Despite Naya's voice echoing like a soul-piercing spell in his ears, Luo Wei remained unmoved. None of what she said had even crossed his mind.

Naya was also surprised that she couldn’t erode this man’s will, couldn’t awaken his inner desires.

“It’s interesting. You, this human, are really interesting…”

Naya propped her chin with her hand, observing him.

“That patchwork monster at the door, it wants to become a god, so I amplified its desire… after consuming the mages, it will be satisfied.”

“The big black worm in the tomb, it’s hungry right now. I’ve satisfied it, so it wants to devour everything it can…”

Naya wondered, “And what is your desire, hmm?”

Luo Wei didn’t respond, simply keeping his gaze fixed on the three scenes before him.

Actually, solving this problem was quite straightforward.

First, Tilis was invincible, or at least extraordinarily difficult to kill. Her strength was off the charts, and under normal circumstances, choosing her would be the safest bet.

The President certainly couldn’t kill her anytime soon. Once everything was over, escaping with her or seeking external help would be a breeze…

Moreover, given Tilis’s temperament, it wasn’t like Ophelia, who would probably mind such things. She would view it as having greater power come greater responsibility, even blaming herself for not making the choice sooner…

However, this thought only flashed through Luo Wei’s mind briefly before being discarded.

Why should he follow Naya’s reasoning? Why let her manipulate him?

The terror and chaos of the St. Carlon incident were still fresh in his memory, not to mention the tragic fate of Usuma that followed…

Against Naya, Luo Wei would never place the lives of himself or anyone he cared about in her hands.

“Time’s running out!”

Since Luo Wei hadn’t made a choice, Naya reminded him.

“I’m a busy woman! Don’t waste my time, alright?~”

Naya suddenly produced a pocket watch from somewhere, setting a timer with a mischievous grin.

Luo Wei glanced at her. Naya grinned and said,

“I still have a schedule to keep! Be quick, alright? I'll give you ten seconds. Decide soon and tell me!”

“Ten!”

“Nine…”

Naya’s countdown echoed around Luo Wei like a death sentence.

“Five!”

“Four~”

Luo Wei stopped looking at the scenes and fixed his cold gaze on Naya.

Naya paused the countdown, her eyes sparkling with excitement and anticipation.

“So? Have you decided? Which woman should be sacrificed for everyone?!!”

“Screw your choices!!” Luo Wei hurled an [Old Sign] directly at Naya’s face.

“I’m taking them all!!”

Ignoring Naya’s flustered and disgusted expression, Luo Wei sprinted straight toward the site where Tilis and the President were locked in battle.

He hadn’t considered making such a choice at all. He had remained silent for so long simply because he was evaluating the real solution to the problem.

The closer Luo Wei got to Tilis, the louder his roar became as he shouted at her:

“Tilis! Give me the Silver Key!!”

The solution to the trolley problem was to tear down the tracks!!
