Know Yourself in the Dragon World

Chapter 193 I'm a Bastard

"Can you give me one?" Uesugi Yue smiled awkwardly.

Yuan Zhisheng glanced at him and pushed the cigarette and lighter in front of him.

Heavy topics should be accompanied by cigarettes. As Uesugi lit up, his mouth slowly opened.

"Do you want to be the next head of the family?" Uesugi Yue asked.

"If you hadn't shown up, maybe the result wouldn't be like this." Yuan Zhisheng said, "Someone has to lead the Eight Snake Clans. This is my responsibility."

"I didn't expect this to be the ending," said Uesugi Yue.

There were too many unexpected things. To some extent, the tragedy of the Snake Eight Clans can be entirely attributed to Uesugi Yue alone.

Because of his departure, some secrets of the Inner Three Families were burned, and the inheritance of the Inner Three Families was cut off.

As a result, for a long period of time in the future, the Eight Clans of Sheqi lost the leadership of the three inner clans, and there was even a situation where the five outer clans operated independently.

The glory of the Sheqi Eight Families ceased from then on.

It also gave the guy named Herzog the opportunity to steal information about the Eight Clans of Sheqi.

A decades-long farce all started because Uesugi Yue left everything behind and fled.

"The ending is already decided, no matter what you say, it will be useless." Yuan Zhisheng flicked the ash from his cigarette, "You came back for me and your sister, right? Now that you've seen it, you should be satisfied."

"I want to take you away." Uesugi Yue said suddenly.

Yuan Zhisheng glanced at Uesugi Yue coldly, "Like you abandoned the Sheqi Eight Clan? Why should I go with you?"

"You only know that I abandoned the eight families of Sheqi, and I don't know whether I lived or died." Uesugi Yue recalled the past, "but do you know why?"

Yuan Zhisheng was silent.

Uesugi Yue did not expect Yuan Zhisheng to cooperate. He continued: "You are very lucky. You met a good era and met a very good teacher."

He would rather call Masamune Tachibana the teacher of Minamoto Chisei rather than his father.

"I lived in France with my mother when I was young. In fact, I am 1/4 CN, 1/4 French, and 1/2 Japanese. In that era, the emperor's mission was to pass on the royal blood, just like a stallion. I happened to be the offspring of a stallion, but I was lucky enough to live a normal life for a few days."

"But the power in my body could not be concealed. One day, I accidentally released the Word Spirit and destroyed two streets. It was at that time that the messenger of the Snake Eight Clan found me and took me back to Japan to become the emperor here."

"I have to take various courses every day to learn how to be a good emperor, and sleep with various women at night to pass on my bloodline."

"Do you know anything about love? When I was young, I struggled with love. During my time as the movie king, I could never find the answer to this question."

"Those women were arranged by the family. They didn't love me. They slept with me, tried to get pregnant, and gave birth to a monster with royal blood. This was their destiny. My destiny was to sit on the throne and do simple and boring things."

"When I was young, I was somewhat addicted to this kind of life. In that era, the Emperor of Shadows was the master of this country, and I had tremendous power."

"I have many wives and many ministers."

Yuan Zhisheng listened attentively, like a student in a history class.

The cigarette in Uesugi Yue's hand burned out. He threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stepped on it, and then lit it again.

"The wheel of time is moving forward, and war is coming. People define that war as World War II. In wars of this level, traces of mixed-blood forces can be found behind the scenes."

"I have also worked hard for the glory of the Eight Snake Families. During World War II, we formed an alliance with Germany. My family advocates war, and I am a member of the family that advocates war."

"I lived a good life in the first few years of the war. Germany was fighting in Europe and we were fighting in East Asia. Every day I mobilized the young people in the family, received the heroes who returned home, and mated with my wives. At that time, I really thought that the Sheqi Eight Clan would stand at the top of the world, and I only needed to do these simple jobs and live an absurd life."

"Then, when the news of France's surrender came, I was awakened from a dream. I was worried about my mother. She was a good woman who loved me very much. She worked in the church and loved the beautiful world and children like me. For many reasons, she could not come to Japan with me."

"I told my family that I wanted to go to France. But the war was intense at that time, and the whole world was arguing about its position. They didn't let me go, but sent someone to greet Germany's allies. The news they brought back was that my mother was no longer in the previous church. She left a long time ago and no one knew where she went."

“I feel relieved, but still worried.”

"This worry was dispelled at a mobilization meeting not long after. I was too young at that time. Perhaps it should not be attributed to youth. You, who are also young, are much stronger than me. I don't have much of my own opinion. At that time, we were always at a disadvantage in the Pacific battlefield when fighting the Americans. This has to do with the secret party, that is, the guy Ange. You should know him. After all, the Snake Eight Clan is also a subordinate of Kassel Academy."

"The secret party frequently launched attacks on the Pacific battlefield, and the eight Sheqi families kept sending people to resist. The war advocates were all a bunch of lunatics, including me. Everyone fought for justice and glory."

“I want to do something more, not just the absurdity of everyday life.”

"While I was thinking, the Emperor announced his surrender."

"It should be said that the war faction failed in the political struggle. Looking back, this outcome was justified. We did not take the lives of our people seriously and sent them madly to the battlefield. The United States developed the atomic bomb and woke up those who were fooled by us."

"After the surrender, I heard that Ange had arrived. Hilbert Jean Ange, leader of the European secret party, was with the American army. He was responsible for taking over the Japanese hybrids."

"As the emperor, I have no hesitation in representing the Eight Snake Clan to assassinate him. This is all I can do. I can't learn economics, nor do I understand war. I only understood that war naturally when I got older. I am only as powerful as the emperor. Sitting in the back is a waste of the emperor's blood. I should go and have a life-and-death battle with the enemy leader."

"Naive, right? At that time, I really thought that by killing Ange, I could redeem this country and the Eight Clans of Sheqi."

"But I failed. My proud bloodline was beaten by Ange like a child. His time zero was very abnormal. I had no chance to release the word spirit at all. It was difficult to even touch him. The dragon bone state that was as solid as a city wall was broken bit by bit by him, along with my arrogance."

"I was such a child. When I couldn't beat him, I started to talk nonsense, saying that everyone was guilty in the war and they had no right to condemn anything. He asked me if I knew what the Japanese soldiers did outside."

"I really don't know. I have always stayed in the family and only know how to preach and yell."

"He let me know. He didn't kill me, and the next day he sent me a truckload of files. They were testimony for the postwar trial."

"In those testimonies, I saw killings, and I saw the soldiers I mobilized killing innocent people in other countries. At first I didn't care, because war always kills people, until I saw a testimony about a massacre in East Asia. The pro-war soldiers burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of atrocities in other cities, even churches established by foreigners were not spared."

"I saw a description of a French church. My soldiers rushed into the church because women from the enemy country hid there. In order to protect those innocent women, the old nun in the church asked them to pretend to be young nuns. The old nun thought that this would save them, but my soldiers ignored international rules and raped and killed people in the church. The old nun couldn't stand such a scene and shot herself. Her death did not bring peace, and the soldiers used her corpse to test their knives. Major Fujiwara Katsu, a member of the war faction, used the old nun's corpse to test his knife."

"The testimony contained the name of the old nun, my mother."

"My mother worked hard for the betterment of this world, but I caused her death and destroyed her efforts."

Uesugi Yue's pupils suddenly glowed with golden light, and his breathing became heavier.

"It was really hard for me to accept this fact. I was like crazy, looking for revenge. It wasn't Angers, but Fujiwara Masaru."

"But Fujiwara no Katsu committed seppuku on the day of surrender and became a national hero. His spirit tablet is at the shrine, and the family members are here to show his loyalty."

"I destroyed the shrine, and my family thought I was crazy and kept trying to comfort me."

"At that time, Ange was establishing his power in the underworld, crushing one family after another. Inuyama He, the only people left from the Inuyama family were Inuyama He, his sister, and his mother."

"The eight Snake families fell due to a war, including the inner three families. A great defeat caused the old men of the inner three families to go to hell one after another. They should have died long ago due to their age, but their powerful bloodline allowed them to survive."

"Before they died, they were still trying to instill in me the idea of ​​making the Eight Snake Families glorious again and not kneeling at the feet of other half-bloods. That's why I got beaten up when Ange arrived."

"I have nothing left. I have truly become the last of the three inner families. The royal blood can only be passed down from me, but I am no longer interested in this."

"I killed my wives. I didn't love them and they didn't love me. Before they died, they told me that they stayed with me because my family would give them a lot of money if they got pregnant."

"Royal blood can also be sold for money, so how can it be called noble?"

Uesugi Yue spoke for a long time, very seriously, his eyes gradually becoming cloudy and then clear.

The second cigarette in his hand had already burned out, and he didn't even feel the burn.

Gen Chisei finally understood why Uesugi Yue became a sinner, but he was still a sinner.

"So, you hid," he said.

Uesugi Yue nodded, "Inuyama He knows, he is also a pitiful man, he sympathizes with me, even though I destroyed his family."

"You're such a bastard."

"Yeah, I'm a jerk."
