Chapter 444 Is that true?
Chapter 444 Is that true?
You want to kill the entire royal family? ! ! !
After hearing what "Princess Veronica" said, the old king finally couldn't hold it anymore, and he opened his eyes wide and shouted angrily:
"you dare?"
"Why wouldn't I dare?"
Looking at the old king in front of her, whose defense was broken by her words and who no longer looked down on her, "Princess Veronica" couldn't help but curl her lips, and said with a happy but regretful expression:
"Sure enough, in your heart, the most important things are always 'the glory of the royal family', 'the authority of the king' and the like. I, your daughter, have never been within your consideration.
Well...but I can't say that I was always gone. When my mother was not sick and could help you like Joshua's mother, your fatherly love for me was still real."
Looking at the old king, who looked furious and even angrier than when she chopped off his head, the Ironhide Princess couldn't help but shake her head and concluded with a cold look:
"But when my mother dies, and my grandfather's family is drained by you like the Ryan family is now, and has completely lost its value, then I, a daughter who can't provide any resources, will no longer be qualified to receive my father's love.
You are a good father, and you are never stingy with your love. It's a pity that your love is conditional, and I need to surrender my own value first."
"you?"
After listening to "Princess Veronica"'s analysis of his father, the old king's expression on the ground could not help but stagnate slightly, and then he said with doubt in his eyes:
"You... why do you know all this? Are you Veronica?"
"Father, I have said it many times, I am Veronica!"
Looking at the old king who was still skeptical, the Iron Princess sneered:
"However, I am not your good daughter who cares about family affection. Although I don't want to admit it, strictly speaking, I should be considered as the dark side that she actively suppressed."
"What do you mean?"
"What it means is that I am a collection of dark thoughts that she doesn't want to acknowledge."
Looking down at the old king who was standing on the ground in doubt, the Iron Princess asked expressionlessly:
"Have you ever wondered why you almost never see any negative emotions in your daughter?
She lost her mother when she needed comfort the most, and was ignored by you, her father, for years, but she never complained. She tried her best to be a good princess, but received almost no praise, and she never felt lost.
She was clearly supporting the royal family, but she was still provoked by her own foolish brother, and scolded by her stepmother who was even more foolish than her brother, but she never complained or cursed;
Even when you revealed your intention to deprive her of all her efforts over the years and marry her off to a distant place, her first reaction was to find a way to solve the problem instead of having a big fight with you... Don't you find it strange?"
"I……"
"Don't blame me, you should really thank me for having such an outstanding daughter.
Seeing the old king with a somewhat shocked expression and a bit of shame in his eyes, the Iron Princess couldn't help but shake her head and said:
"Since she picked me up six years ago and placed me in her bedroom, the hope I represented to change the kingdom and prevent the tragedy from happening again became her sustenance.
It’s not that she hasn’t been angry or complained over the years, but those turbulent negative emotions, resentment and unwillingness were all suppressed by the wishes and ideals that I represented.
But these impulses and evil thoughts that she suppressed with reason when she saw me will not disappear for nothing. She has tolerated you for six years, and these suppressed things have accumulated in me bit by bit for six years.
After you imprisoned her in the bedroom, the things that had accumulated over the past six years finally exceeded the limit of her rationality. When the resentment in her heart was greater than her kindness and rationality, it was my turn to suppress her! "
"..."So...it was what happened three days ago that stimulated Veronica and became the last straw that broke the camel's back, awakening the anomaly in her bedroom?
After listening to the Iron Princess's story, the old king couldn't help but show deep regret on his face. He looked at his "daughter" in front of him and murmured with regret:
"If...if I had known this would happen..."
After hearing the old king's words, the Iron Princess paused slightly, and a hint of struggle emerged in her emerald glass eyes, but...
"I shouldn't have locked you in the bedroom!"
"..."
Sure enough, it is impossible for someone like you to regret.
After a moment's silence, as if something that had been tied to her body was suddenly torn off, an extremely human smile suddenly appeared on the stiff iron face of the "Princess".
Then, her leg joints that were twisted by the nail gun miraculously recovered after twisting twice. There was even a hint of softness and dexterity that did not belong to metal, and she suddenly became more human.
"Thank you, my father."
After stretching her joints, which had become smooth and flexible and not much different from those of humans, the Iron Princess smiled and said:
"I'm sorry, I just lied to you. Actually, I'm not Veronica, but I am indeed an anomaly that was revived with the help of her suppressed dark side."
"???"
Looking at the old king on the ground with eyes full of anger, the Iron Princess, who was becoming more and more like a human, smiled and thanked him:
"As a direct descendant of the Thirteenth Royal Family, Veronica's will is much stronger than I expected. Even at this moment, she is still trying to stop me from killing you completely.
If you hadn't killed her last bit of innocence with your own mouth, I would have had to fight with her for a long time, or even been suppressed by her, and might not have been able to kill all the royal family members.
Haha, from this point of view, you are indeed my father. After all, if it weren’t for you, I probably wouldn’t have been born. And to thank you for your kindness to me…”
As the old king looked regretful, the Iron Princess raised the ceremonial sword in her hand again and chopped it down on his head.
"I'll give you a quick death!"
……
Could it be... that I was really wrong?
Seeing that there was no hesitation or struggle in the eyes of the "princess", who was slashing at his forehead with a sword with a smile, a deep regret finally emerged in the old king's jewel eyes.
If... if I could be nicer to Veronica, if I could give her a little more care, or even... even trust her a little, would the current situation be different?
But... it's too late...
"boom!"
Just as the old king was looking at the chopped-down ceremonial sword with annoyance and preparing to wait for death in despair, the window on the side of the two men suddenly exploded, and the surging air flow carried the broken window frames and glass fragments and blasted directly into the study.
