"Kevin, even though we've fought side by side for so long, you've probably never seen my true abilities, have you?"

Kevin: ...

Kevin did not respond, but he was ready for battle.

He is not Aponia and cannot persuade Sakura with words alone, but he will never sit idly by while Sakura continues to act recklessly. He will stop Sakura here!

A sharp blade flashed with cold light, and the greatsword burst into flames. Sakura and Kevin were locked in a tense standoff, and the surrounding space seemed to freeze.

Kevin walked towards Sakura step by step, and then suddenly, Sakura disappeared!

"what?!"

For the first time, Kevin's calm face showed a look of shock. He instinctively turned around and found that Sakura and Seele, who should have been in front of him, had somehow passed him and were behind him.

At that moment, Kevin finally understood what Sakura had just said.

Is her true ability to freeze time and space?

Kevin finally understood why Sakura had acted as an assassin before; her abilities were indeed perfect for assassination!

Meanwhile, Kevin wasn't the only one shocked; the viewers watching the video were also stunned.

Audience: (⊙_⊙)?

"Freeze, freeze time and space?"

"Is this Sakura guy really that awesome?"

"Warriors of the Fire Moth? Do you guys remember that short video the uploader posted before, the battle between Alicia and Qianjie from the Thirteen Heroes of the Fire Moth? Could Sakura and Kevin also be among the Thirteen Heroes?"

"I think so, these heroes all look incredibly strong!"

"She's really strong. Judging from the previous development trend, I thought there would be a big battle here, but Sakura just passed by like that!"

"This guy named Kevin looks all high and mighty, but he doesn't seem to be all that great in reality, does he?"

Viewers were not only amazed by Sakura's abilities, but some also expressed doubts about Kevin's combat strength.

That's understandable, since Su Yu hadn't shown Kevin's power in his previous videos. As more stories from the previous civilization are uncovered, these doubts will naturally dissipate.

But Jackal couldn't tolerate these criticisms.

Jackal, like everyone else in the comments, was amazed by Sakura's abilities, after all, freezing time and space is indeed an extremely terrifying power!

But when he saw some comments questioning Kevin's fighting ability because of this, Jackal couldn't stand it anymore and immediately turned into a barrage of trolls and started fighting.

"How dare you question Lord Kevin's fighting prowess? Are you all still half asleep?"

"The Thirteen Heroes ranked first, do you even understand the significance of that ranking?"

"Lord Kevin is someone who can tear apart a Herrscher with his bare hands; he is the world's only hope!"

Although most of the comments on Jackal's screen were factual, other viewers didn't know that, so they started mocking him.

"Where did this idea that Yingjie is ranked number one come from? Who exactly are Yingjie? The uploader hasn't even revealed all of them yet, and you're already making up stories about Yingjie being number one?"

"Tear apart a Herrscher with your bare hands? If you can tear apart a Herrscher with your bare hands, then why are you so afraid of that Bell?"

"No need to argue with this guy, he's probably just a clown trying to get attention!"

Jackal was furious with these comments.

Chilling!

These days, nobody believes you when you tell the truth!

Chapter 43 Alicia: I deeply love humans!

"Oh dear, it seems even Kevin was caught off guard the first time he faced Sakura!"

"This was a rare opportunity to see any other expression on Kevin's icy face. It's such a shame I wasn't there!"

When Alicia saw Kevin's shocked expression, she couldn't help but laugh, since it was rare to see such an expression on Kevin's face.

"Aili, you used the word 'also,' have you fought against Sakura before?"

Su Yu asked casually, "Judging from the current situation, Kevin didn't know Sakura's true power before this. But it seems that Alicia does know something about it."

“Even in training, Sakura won’t use her full strength if they haven’t fought each other.”

"Sakura used to be an assassin belonging to the Poison Chrysalis Squad. Her specialty is assassination. I'm so cute, how could Sakura bear to attack me?"

"Then how did you know?"

Su Yu's curiosity was piqued, and he continued to press for more information.

"Hehe." A smug smile appeared on Alicia's lips. "I got it from Qianjie!"

“Sakura has never fought us at full strength, but Qianjie is an exception. Before Qianjie became a fusion warrior, the two of them had a battle. I learned about the battle from Qianjie and then deduced Sakura’s abilities myself.”

"I've been asking Qianjie about this for days!"

"Fortunately, in the end, Qianjie couldn't resist my request as a beautiful girl and told me all this."

Su Yu: ......

Is it possible that Qianjie was annoyed by your harassment, but couldn't beat you, and finally had no choice but to compromise?

After thinking about it, Su Yu ultimately decided not to voice his thoughts.

Qianjie must have told Alicia about her battle with Sakura because Alicia was so cute.

Yes, that must be it!

"By the way, Airi, do you know how Sakura's sister died? Normally, even if the guards were filled with hatred for the Honkai because of the Aponia Commandments, they wouldn't have been able to get their hands on Rin, who was imprisoned, right?"

There's a cell door separating the prison guards and the inmates!

Su Yu didn't believe that the prison defenses for a potential Herrscher like the one imprisoned by Ling would be lax.

Even if it doesn't require Dr. Mei's personal presence to open it, it certainly wouldn't be allowed for ordinary soldiers to open the cell, right?

Su Yu believed the soldiers when they said they were guarding Ling, who was imprisoned outside; but he didn't believe they opened the cell themselves, rushed in, and killed Ling.

Alicia: ...

"It's probably about the same as what you guessed, Su Yu!"

“The rules of Aponia were indeed the direct cause of those soldiers killing Bell, but it was actually the higher-ups of the Firemoth who gave these soldiers the authority to open the Bell’s cell.”

"The appearance of the Tenth Herrscher exacerbated the already disunity within the Flame Chaser, while the Eleventh Herrscher dealt a near-devastating blow to the Flame Chaser's power."

"After that, even the heroes became more suspicious of each other, not to mention the higher-ups."

"After the tragedy of the restraint, the Fire Moth suffered unprecedented losses, and the power of those in the leadership reached its lowest point, which made them even more suspicious."

"They suspect that Dr. Mei's reason for not killing Rin, but only imprisoning her, is to use Rin's power as a Herrscher to become the leader of the Flame Chaser, so..."

Su Yu: ......

"Are they out of their minds?"

Don't they even consider that if Dr. Mei really wanted to fight for power, did they have any chance of winning?

Moreover, Kevin, the strongest among the Flame Chasers, is a staunch supporter of Dr. Mei, and most of the Flame Chasers' most cutting-edge technologies were developed by Dr. Mei. If they really wanted to rebel, would they have waited until then?

"I had suggested that I take over the care of that little girl, Ling, but unfortunately, not only the higher-ups, but even Dr. Mei decisively rejected this suggestion!"

"They even sent me on other missions. If that weren't the case, I should have been at the base at the time, and then Sakura and Rin..."

As she spoke, Alicia's voice grew softer and softer, clearly recalling things she didn't want to remember.

Su Yu: ......

Although Su Yu also felt that having Alicia supervise the bell was a good choice, after all, Alicia was strong enough and seemed to get along well with children, and Sakura could trust her.

But Alicia, back then, in Dr. Mei's eyes you were a high-risk person of unknown origin. How could she possibly entrust Rin, a potential Herrscher, to your supervision?

"That's often how things are; before you know it, you've gradually moved towards a point that no one wants to see."

"But Alicia, after going through so much, why did you end up..."

Su Yu hesitated, unsure of how to ask the question.

Alicia, who was initially quite depressed, was amused by Su Yu's reaction.

"Are you asking me why, after witnessing the true colors of those high-ranking members of the Firemoth, I'm still willing to sacrifice myself to become the villain who can unite everyone?"

Su Yu nodded.

"The ugliness of a moment or of a few people cannot overshadow the brilliance of humanity as a whole. In my view, humanity is still a race where good outweighs evil."

"I deeply love humanity!"

Su Yu: ......

Okay, I can't learn that! Anyway, if it were him, he'd be lucky if he didn't stab those higher-ups in the back, let alone sacrifice himself!

"And most importantly, after the Herrscher of Corruption, most of those annoying high-ranking members were dead, but Sakura's death caused a split within the Evil Tribe."

"I play the villain, but the people I really want to unite are actually my remaining comrades!"

While Su Yu and Alicia were chatting, the video continued to play.

Using her abilities, Sakura unexpectedly brought Seele behind Kevin and then ran away without looking back.
