"Do you remember the bloody revolution of Stella in Lopez fifty years ago?" Olivia asked.

"Stela, that tyrant?" Shalom looked at her in confusion.

"Yes." Olivia put his hands on her chest, and the heavy rain merged along her arms to her fingertips, turning into a straight line to the ground.

She continued, "In the history of Lopez, Stella has many similarities with our [beheaded man] King Fey Ross. They are both descendants of the three great kings in the Battle of Blood 300 years ago. They all have extremely smart minds and political talents, and they all have very powerful means..."

"They are all greedy for pleasure, and use the people's money and the wealth of the whole country to provide their own enjoyment," Shalom cut off her words and sarcastically said disdainfully, "They all like to kill people. They have created and executed new cruel punishments, such as cutting tongues, cutting limbs, and burning living people with flames... Stella is the famous [Firebreaker], and Fei is the infamous [Beheader]. What a tacit and similar pair they are."

Shalom laughed silently, staring at Olivia motionlessly, as if saying-

You almost have to follow their footsteps.

"Yes, in some ways, they are very similar, His Majesty the King, they are all very famous [Tyrants]."

"Look at you, what have you done?" Shalom turned his head and said affectionately and angrily, "King Olivia, after the battle of the Frost Fortress sixteen years ago, he took advantage of the situation to grant the Frost title to the Thunder Knight Rosalind, making her the first grand duke of civilian origin in history.

Later, the Congress was rebuilt, and the Three Powers Conference of the Grand Duchy King and the God Envoy was transformed into a conference system with more than 100 people. Except for the remaining less than one-third of the nobles, what were the others-

The down-and-out foreign nobles, the businessman with only money left in their minds, the farmers who were so poor that they couldn't even know a few words, the chefs of the bread workshop, the shoemakers, the soldiers...

These people, besides becoming your vassal, can bring up many things that are beneficial to the kingdom?

In order to gain power, you weaken the power of the Grand Duke and the God's envoy, arrange personnel in the God's Association, and set up supervision departments in the local area. To put it nicely, it is to eliminate the fruit of buying and selling life, but in fact it is to conquer power.

You executed Prime Minister Phoebe because she was not satisfied with your revision of the law.

You executed the great Knight Penny who was loyal and wise for the Kingdom because she had some doubts about your [Kingdom Avenue].

...

You ignored the laws made by King Ross, the will of all people, and the atrocities, and the tyrants were no different from those tyrants."

"Thank you for the compliment." Olivia smiled slightly, with no slight anger on her face.

"Commendation?" Shalom smiled in surprise, "Didn't you hear that I'm mocking you?"

“Whether it’s the Fire Spitter or the Beheader, see what they will happen to-

He was sent to the guillotine by his own people.

The head was cut off by his own knight.

Being scolded by later generations will never be restored.

Despised by his own family, the portrait will never be able to enter the King's Castle.

This is the tyrant, no one will forgive them.

If you don’t want to repeat their mistakes, you should stop.”

King Olivia's lips raised and he looked at her calmly, "No, Shalom, this is..."

"Or, you are just following them and wanting to be a tyrant who concentrates power on your own hands?" Shalom's body moved slightly, and the armor rubbed and made a clicking sound.

At the same time, both sides took a step forward.

A tense attitude.

"No, there is no need for a tyrant now."

Olivia smiled calmly, her smile lonely and bitter.

"They have paved the way for us, only the last unfinished road. Maybe they are covered with thorns, maybe they have to go ahead, maybe they will be doomed, and I will complete it until that new future arrives."

"What does it mean?" Shalom noticed a strange thing and looked at her suspiciously.

When Olivia's face reveals this sadness and loneliness, she will always be shaken.

The reason for the wavering is simple-

Because she is very strong, she will always lead one step ahead in her prediction of the future, perception of danger, the fate of the country and political policies.

She always has a way to convince others.

This is also something that makes Shalom feel extremely unhappy—

She could clearly become a good king, but she had to follow her inner desire for power and become a tyrant who trampled on the law and the power of the great masters.

"Yes, it is undeniable that whether it is the beheader Fei Rose or the fire-breather Stella Hill, they are all tyrants. In the bloody revolution fifty years ago, Stella was her own child—

That is, Arya Hill later cut off his head."

"It's so cruel that I was killed by my own children. This is unprecedented in the entire history of the Eastern Land." Shalom mocked.

"But there are some things that I found when I thought about carefully later and found very interesting and extremely terrifying." Olivia ignored her mockery and continued, "Stela, the Fire Spitter, spent a lot of money and manpower to dig the very famous Dawn Avenue in order to allow herself to enjoy it from the cold city of Dawn to the south when the cold winter came. Do you still remember?"

"Of course I remember," Shalom responded, "In ten years, dozens of mountain tunnels were opened, gullies were filled, and the famous Ice Dragon Mountain Plank Road was built so that she could ride a carriage and enjoy the fun. However, more than 600,000 workers died in the period, and countless money was spent. This kind of atrocities will not be forgotten in history."

"Very good." Olivia nodded in praise, quite satisfied with Shalom's memory. "Then let me talk about another thing, do you remember the [Dongyang Magic Formation Group] created by Stella?"

"That was a crazy act." Shalom recalled history. "In order to make her movements more convenient, to facilitate inspections and supervision in the kingdom, and to firmly control power in her hands, Stella used more than 500 magicians and 300,000 labor forces to mine minerals in the Eastern Magic Crystal Mine, and to create a magic teleportation array group that spreads across important cities across the country through artificial accumulation.

More than 200 magicians died due to the exhaustion of magic, and 300,000 workers did not understand magic. The magic crystal itself had a strong corrosive effect on the body. In the past ten years, none of these workers died of illness.

It was this behavior that directly angered the vassals and people of the territory. Stella's eldest son Arya took the lead in raising the banner of resistance and led her knights into the castle and cut off Stella's head."

"In a word, Stella was an absolute tyrant and lunatic. During her reign, Lopez was trapped in unprecedented turmoil and darkness."
