Chapter 1408: A Decisive Aina

His eyes were starting to turn red, but Lear managed to calm himself down very quickly. He stood up and nodded, “Your Majesty, it seems that you’re not willing to accept my goodwill. Let’s collaborate when we come to an agreement.”

Aina merely looked at Lear, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. “Lacus, see the guest out.”

Lacus, who was on the side, nodded and gestured for Lear to leave. Lear stared intensely at Aina, turned, and left. Jay York, who was on the side, was also expressionless. But he knew that Lear had to be filled with rage. With Aina’s vision, she could not have not recognized the strengths of this team. Besides, Constantine’s information could not be wrong. Lear’s proposal was considered reasonable too. At least Aslan did not have much choice at the moment. However, this queen had actually rejected the proposal. This was unbelievable.

After leaving the palace, Lear stopped and looked up to the sky and the grand and majestic palace behind him. “Jay York, do you think that Aslan still has a backup plan?”

Jay York was the only person around Lear that had not gone through the transformation. Lear did not want Jay York to become the new human species. He wanted to use his cowardice and slyness. As soon as the new human species gained strength, they would lose their sense of fear. This was not a good sign. Only a person who knew fear would stay cautious and make fewer mistakes. Hence, he had kept Jay York.

“Boss, I don’t think Aslan has a backup plan. The Queen’s eyes were flickering. It was obvious that she was tempted. But that woman is too cool-headed. I think she guessed your intentions too. As for the second condition, I was rather surprised. Deep sisterly love is unusual among the royal family,” said Jay York. “Maybe it was bargaining. But we have the upper hand. We could continue to observe. I think that even if there is a major war, Aslan will not be annihilated.”

Lear nodded. He was very confident this time, but he had the door shut right in his face by Aina. Of course, such matters may not be successful in the first attempt. It was a gamble on both parties. A woman in exchange for a strong army. Regardless of who the ruler was, they would not reject the proposal. As to whether Lear would have any effect on Aina’s position after becoming part of the royal family, this was not an issue. Aina could not have considered the possibility so far ahead. Non-direct blood relatives could never be a successor to the throne.

However, both Aina and Wang Zheng were upsetting him. But this was precisely the reason why he wanted to see the final outcome.

Inside the palace, Lacus had already returned. Lin Huiying and Angela were in the grand hall too.

“Sister, if Lear has the ability to save Aslan, I’m willing to enter into a marriage contract with him,” said Huiyin.

“Do you really want to marry him?”

Lin Huiyin was silent. She had obviously not thought of the consequences.

Aina shook her head. “Lear is too ambitious and filled with the dark side. Aslan cannot use such a person. Attacking the Solar System would leave Aslan in a state of total isolation. Even though we want to unify the Milky Way Alliance, this is definitely not an option that we should take. As for wanting to marry you, I’m afraid he has some more schemes. It is definitely not for protection. For such people, other than their own powers and strengths, they would not believe in any other sort of guarantee.”

“But Grandfather…”

Aina sighed softly. “I can understand, but we cannot do things in such a way. This war was started by Aslan. We need to pay the price for it. As for whether we survive or get annihilated, let’s leave it to our soldiers to decide. If we are destined to be annihilated, it is our destiny.”

“Your Majesty, is there absolutely no hope from Atlantis?” asked Angela.

This was perhaps Aslan’s last hope. However, the Atlantis Empire had made it clear that they would not provide any military aid.

“Your Majesty, if Lear is so ambitious, should we be prepared? Will they turn to our enemies as soon as we reject them?” said Lacus suddenly.

Aina was silent for a moment and then shook her head. “Apart from that level of relationship, this guy’s strengths are unpredictably deep. My spiritual power could not perceive anything at all. The person he brought with him is highly skilled too. We would have to pay a high price for it. Besides, he is very cautious. Keep a close watch, but don’t engage. If they want to leave, let them.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Normally, people would hesitate. However, Aina was a very decisive person by nature. She had her own limits and criterion. Otherwise, she would not have lasted so long with Wang Zheng. Aina did not feel that Aslan would necessarily lose this war. There were many variables in a war. New elements would always appear at different stages. Aina could sacrifice something and betray some feelings. But there had to be a threshold. If the threshold was crossed, then the essence of the person would change and she would no longer be herself. There would be no difference between living and dying.

Besides, Aina was absolutely certain that Lear’s existence would be more troublesome than Arbiter.

“Lacus, try and find out what this genetic engineering is all about, as well as that Sharjah,” said Aina.

“Sister, I sensed a coldness from Lear, like a cold-blooded animal. He’s different from us,” said Lin Huiyin. It was like seeing a snake instead of a human.

Aina nodded. She thought that it was her misconception. Little did she know that Huiyin had the same feeling as well. But Angela and Lacus could not feel it.

They could only let this matter rest for now. With Aslan’s current production abilities, the army supplies were being supplemented continuously. Along with the supplies from Atlantis, it should be sufficient to deal with the next war.

The key was still Ren Yixuan. This was the sword of Damocles that was hanging above Aslan’s head.

The research department of the Aslan Empire was also analyzing the weakness of this tactic, including Ren Yixuan’s weakness. Was there no damage done to the body with such depletion?

Where was the limit? How could they target it? Assassination?

Different tactics were being discussed. Of course, it was predictable that Arbiter was doing the same thing. Ren Yixuan was the national treasure of Arbiter. They could not find a second person like him.

Countless major and minor wars were breaking out in the entire Milky Way Alliance. The humans’ recovery from war was, in fact, not very strong. But the Tita Star was displaying a totally different passion.

The Tita Star, which had just experienced the war with the Sirius Star, had not immersed itself in the desolation of sadness and wreckage. Instead, there was a kind of vitality. On the Tita Star, the elders were holding a ritual for the warriors who had sacrificed themselves during the war. The giants lived for war. It was the greatest honor as a warrior to sacrifice themselves in the protection of their country. They were proud of this. There were more new giants joining the army. They would continue the legacies of their seniors in protecting the country.

As for the rebuild after the war, there was no cause for concern at all. The Elders would migrate more giants into the cities. In fact, there were enough giants and wise ones on the Tita Star. However, in order for the Tita giants to embrace human civilization, they were gradually opening up the integration rate. The giants may not be able to adapt if the integration process was too fast or too forceful. There were also other social issues to consider too. Essentially, the number of the Titans was not a concern.
