Necromancer Farming Notes Figure Master

Chapter 748: Ascension or Not (Page 13)

While everyone was concentrating on studying, in another reception room of the manor, the King of Cultivation was meeting the little princess.

"That guy, the King of Madness and Fire, was unwilling to even send a clone over here, and asked a little girl like you to come and see me. Aren't you looking down on me too much?" The King of Cultivation said with a sneer.

"You're joking. The Mad Fire King has important matters to deal with and cannot be away for the time being." The little princess reacted calmly and was not frightened by the bad attitude of the King of Cultivation.

"Important things... let me think about it. Haha, is that guy looking for his lover Nanaya again? As a king, he is actually led by a woman. How pathetic." The King of Cultivation laughed sarcastically. In the eyes of others, the deep affection of the King of Mad Fire is a plus, but in his eyes, this is completely a fool's behavior.

The little princess smiled when she heard that. "I have a collection of your paintings at home. You were really high-spirited at that time, standing at the forefront of the fight against the nobility. You created many valuable works for everyone. After all, painters of that era would not consider the appreciation level of the lower classes, nor would they paint paintings that reflect people's livelihood. You were the most down-to-earth painter at that time. People loved you very much because of that."

The King of Cultivation's face changed. "That's enough! Everyone gets carried away when they are young. At that time, I was ignorant and thought that some ugly things were beautiful. I always thought that I could change the world through my paintings. But what was the result? What if my paintings were liked by the untouchables? They are still not worthy of being displayed in the halls of elegance!"

"Even though the nobility was overthrown, those critics still belittled my paintings! Even when I held my exhibition for free, no celebrities from the art world came to visit. Only some low-class untouchables came..."

"It's hard to imagine that I felt honored at the time! It's ridiculous!"

"A few cheap compliments can make me lose my way. But after I went bankrupt because of holding too many art exhibitions, how many people would be willing to spend money to buy my paintings?"

“It was not until that moment that I realized that those untouchables didn’t like my paintings at all, they just liked me to cater to them!”

"What people's painter? Those titles are all empty! They can't fill my stomach, nor can they make my life better!"

"Hahaha! The most ironic thing is that after I entered politics, my paintings became more valuable! And after I reached the pinnacle of power, my paintings became masterpieces!"

"Interesting, right? Very interesting, isn't it? Hahahaha!" The King of Cultivation laughed loudly, without any grace at all.

"But that experience wasn't entirely useless. At least I knew that I could gain benefits by catering to others. I used this principle to slowly climb up the ladder, and it actually allowed me to do things that I didn't even dare to imagine!"

Looking at the somewhat crazy King of Cultivation, a trace of sadness flashed in the little princess's eyes. Didn't the King of Cultivation ever think about why he was able to rise so quickly after entering politics?

At that time, the lower classes were very poor and could not afford paintings. But that did not mean that people did not like them. They also wanted to repay the painters in their own way.

So after the painter entered politics, people's support made him reach the top. But he turned around and forgot about it. I don't know whether he really didn't realize it or he was making excuses for his selfishness.

The heart of an artist is always sensitive, it can be easily ignited and easily cooled. People's delayed feedback has become the last straw that broke the camel's back for the painter... But it's meaningless to say this. Time flies, things have changed, and people have changed. How many people can keep their original intentions when they were young? I'm afraid most people have long forgotten their original intentions at that time?

The little princess calmed down and said seriously: "Your painting is really beautiful..."

"Stop saying these useless words of flattery! I'm tired of hearing them. Besides, I don't paint anymore. That kind of behavior is just like exposing your private diary to others! It's really disgusting and self-degrading!" The King of Cultivation rudely interrupted the little princess.

The little princess frowned. She felt that the painter had gone to the other extreme.

From an artistic perspective, the painter's words were actually quite good. However, because of his stance, he was criticized by critics who still had some aristocratic habits. After those critics died, critics of the new era were full of praise for this kind of artistry. People discovered the brilliance of these paintings and praised them highly. However, the painter mistakenly thought that this was a byproduct of his change in status. It was this strange misunderstanding that led the painter to go to extremes. He never looked back on the road to pursuing power.

In fact, in a sense, the painter is also a microcosm of the sadness of the times. During that period of change, many people did experience unimaginable pain. And the sequelae of that pain also broke out in this era.

"Don't look at me like that! It's disgusting!" As if sensing the little princess's rich emotions, the King of Cultivation flew into a rage.

The little princess was startled and quickly regained her indifference.

Fortunately, the King of Cultivation did not do anything extreme. He sneered and said, "I know why you came this time. Those guys want to delay time. I have temporarily reached a bottleneck, and everyone wants to rest. This is very understandable. And I agree to a truce. But I hope you will stop smearing me, and don't add resistance to me when I carry out my activities."

The little princess nodded. "We also played a big role in your successful completion of this major exam. And the arrangement of those reporters was also done by us. This is our small token of sincerity."

"Haha, you are smart. Otherwise, do you think you can walk into this manor? Non-interference and peaceful development will be the theme for a long time in the future. What you should worry about most now is the evil god Dio. He is the biggest uncontrollable factor. He hates everyone and his mind is full of thoughts about destroying the world. I hope you can pay more attention to him instead of focusing on me."

"Also, don't do anything that would weaken your own strength. The Fire Lord's withdrawal from the Internet is not only a blow to me, but also to himself. By then, we will all be weak, and Dio will just take advantage of it for nothing."

The King of Cultivation spoke to the little princess in a manner that was three parts human talk and seven parts nonsense.

The little princess just nodded frequently without saying a word.

After the King of Cultivation scolded Dio again, he waved his hand to signal the little princess to leave.

The little princess bowed and left. Before coming here, she had some regrets for the King of Cultivation. But now it was completely gone. She felt that the guy had completely become an extremely selfish scum, and it was not excessive for him to die.

The Mad Fire King also has a tendency to turn into a scum, which makes the little princess very sad. She followed the Mad Fire King because she knew his deep affection in the past. But now the Mad Fire King's personality is collapsing. He is now busy testing everyone's faith in him and has completely put the search for Nanaya behind him.

"Why is this happening? Will I be like this when I get old? Becoming so ugly!" At this moment, the little princess even had thoughts of committing suicide.

Because even such great figures inevitably fell into depravity in the end. They were undoubtedly powerful people who surpassed ordinary people, but even those powerful people fell into such a miserable state. The little princess felt that she was far inferior to those powerful people, so she felt that it was inevitable that she would fall into depravity after getting old.

With this prejudice, she thought that it would be better to end her life while she was still pretty, rather than becoming uglier and uglier.

She was driving in a luxury car, in a daze, on the busy road. It was time to get off work, and many people who worked overtime were leaving at this time.

When other vehicles saw this luxury car, they all kept their distance. After all, if they accidentally hit such a luxury car, they might not be able to afford the compensation in their lifetime.

It was this alienation that shocked the little princess. From the perspective of ordinary people, was she also considered a strong person? Then was she also ugly now?

The little princess subconsciously looked in the rearview mirror. The person in the mirror was bright and beautiful, without a trace of ugliness. But the little princess felt that under this beautiful appearance lived an empty soul.

Sometimes she really envied her sister. Although her sister was not very smart, she had no worries. Even after she learned that she could not practice, her sister did not react. At most, she felt a little sorry. But after feeling sorry, she let it go. Now she travels with her brother-in-law all day long. She doesn't know how happy she is.

After passing through the crowded traffic, the road became lonely, after all, there were few passers-by leading to the manor. Their previous manor had been completely destroyed in the war of gods, and now they lived in a larger manor, but this place was more remote.

Back in the empty manor, the little princess changed her clothes and went to the garden.

In the garden, the old king was sitting on the grass in a daze.

"Father, what are you thinking about now?" asked the little princess.

“……” The old king just sat there in a daze and did not answer.

The little princess has gotten used to it. Since the last war of gods, the old king has become what he is now. He sits in a daze all day without saying a word. Although he doesn't need to be taken care of in his daily life, this tendency is very dangerous. Professional doctors say this may be a precursor to Alzheimer's disease.

But the little princess thought her father simply didn't want to talk. The world has become like this now, and her father must be very disappointed, right?

The father and daughter didn't have any more conversation and just sat there blankly.

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps. Two concubines who were as old as the old king came over.

"Your father is angry again. Is he ignoring you again?" asked the foul-mouthed girl.

"Maybe we are too noisy." The world-weary girl smiled.

"How about we play cards? There are just four of us!" suggested the foul-mouthed girl.

"Heh..." The old king suddenly chuckled.

"Hey! I thought you were mute!" The foul-mouthed girl stepped forward and grabbed the old king's ear.

The old king's expression changed, and finally he looked a little helpless.

"I'm sorry, I feel like I'm overestimating my own abilities. I always think about things that are beyond my ability. I'm too lazy to pay the internet bill next month. The news online is too disturbing and it affects my mood."

"You, have you failed in your online romance? You haven't even looked at us since you connected to the Internet." The foul-mouthed girl complained.

"He's probably watching some videos of beautiful girls. He's silent and looks so gloomy!" The world-weary girl also started to make a noise.

"That's enough! If I had that kind of mind, I would have had three wives and four concubines when I was young!"

"Come on! Think about how long it has been since you hugged us?"

"Uh..." The old king paused. A kiss between a middle-aged couple would give him nightmares for several nights. What's more, they are now elderly.

But the king also lost his temper and stood up and hugged the two princesses in his arms.

The little princess felt a little sad when she saw this scene. This hand of dog food was thrown unexpectedly, which made her feel uncomfortable.

However, looking at her frivolous parents, the little princess suddenly realized that even if some people grow old, their hearts remain unchanged.

"Child, there is something we have not told you." The old king said suddenly.

"What's the matter?" The little princess smiled.

"Well... didn't a euthanasia service come out recently? Some elderly people want to reduce the burden on their families..."
