There are thousands of people who have had a similar experience with Hutz - countless Shurima people have made a similar choice, and when the solar disk rises again over the sand, they choose to rally around the Emperor to rebuild Shurima's glory!

However, as the central figure of the incident, Azir did not have much joy in the face of the growing power.

Yes, countless Shurima had been inspired by the Emperor to come under his command—but in Azir's eyes, it was a matter of course, and nothing to boast about.

In Azir's view, it is not enough to rely on these people alone to rebuild Shurima's glory.

During the time since his resurrection, Azir met Nasus in the city of Shurima, and in Nasus's mouth, he learned about the final events of the Ascension Rite - that the man he had always trusted had betrayed him.

This news made Azir a little difficult to accept, he really did not have the same as his most trusted brother, the man who made up his mind to fly out of slavery, actually betrayed him at the last moment.

"For power?" On the throne, Azir muttered in a tone, "Zelas...... It's not what we agreed on. ”

"Your Majesty." As Azir lamented, Nasus had to remind him again, "Because of the accident of the Ascension Ritual, that despicable traitor and you have reached some kind of twisted relationship...... When you wake up, Zelas will wake up with you. ”

"I know." Azir nodded unsurprised, "Even...... I have already felt his coming. ”

“！！！”

Even Nasus's heart shuddered at hearing the word of arrival - yes, Zelas was a shameful traitor, a despicable traitor, but he was also powerful enough, and the choice to steal the power of the sun at the last moment made Zelas a special being, an ascendant and a dark mage.

"The most important thing is." There was a sudden indescribable weariness in Azir's tone, "My descendant does not seem to be lovely—when she was in the mausoleum, she actually left her great ancestor behind and slipped away quietly, as if to her the glory of Shurima was not worth mentioning......"

In the face of Azir's complaints, Nasus wisely kept his mouth shut - he knew exactly who Azir was talking about, and he only knew a little about the emperor's descendant, but it was certain that a "small accident" resurrected Azil, but before the resurrection ritual was fully completed, the other protagonist left early......

Interestingly, the royal bloodline and the glory of the emperor, the power that countless people crave, was actually more of a "trouble" in the eyes of the emperor's descendants, and she naively thought that Azir had saved her, and she would be clear when she resurrected Azir!

Nasus really wanted to laugh at such a little creature - but he couldn't laugh when the words came to his lips.

There is a fault line in Shurima's history.

And all this...... It's all Nasus's own responsibility.

As the steward of Shurima's history, Nasus is obligated to spread the light of Shurima to the hearts of all Shurima people, but after the failed ascension ceremony, he was lost in the desert and became known as the "Lost Son" of Shurima.

At this moment, Nasus was suddenly a little glad that the emperor who had returned was Azir - among the previous emperors of Shurima, even if you count those who existed before the war of Acacia, Azir's approval can be ranked among the top three.

The reason is simple.

As emperor, Azir's last order was that "all slaves shall be free under the sun of Shurima".

Nasus was well aware that there was only one reason why so many warriors were willing to follow in Azir's footsteps.

They were all once slaves.

That's right, including the previous Hughes - their ancestors were all slaves.

It was Azir who freed them, and before stepping into the Ascension Flames, Azir freed all the slaves from the shackles in the name of the Emperor.

It was because of this order that Azir became one of the few emperors who are still remembered by the Shurima people today.

Perhaps when it comes to the earlier and more brilliant Sun Empress, the current Shurima people will be confused, but when it comes to Azir who untied all the slave shackles, few people don't know.

In this desert, the Shurima people, who struggle to survive all day long, can forget the traditions and glories of the past, but they will not forget who freed them from the shackles of slavery – and it is for this reason that when Azir announced his return, countless soldiers who were once slaves chose to join the army.

Fight for the Emperor.

Shaking his head, Nasus no longer thought about the choice of mercy and harshness, he just looked at Azir on the throne quietly, and hesitated for a moment before finally speaking: "Your Majesty, the resurrection ritual still needs to continue. ”

"Theoretically, that's so." Azir's tone was full of exhaustion, "But...... Recruits still need drills, and you don't have helpers. ”

“…… I know. Nasus nodded, "But I don't have a choice—after all, we don't have enough people right now. ”

This sentence silenced Azir completely.

In the process of Shurima's decline, Azir's blindness can almost be said to have played a "decisive role", although the curtain of Shurima's decline was opened by the earlier Acacia War and the conquest of the Dark Descendants, but Azir's ascension ceremony is the hole that completely sank Shurima's broken ship, no matter from any point of view, Azir needs to be responsible for this.

In the midst of a terrible silence, Nasus finally picked up his staff.

After stroking Azir's chest again, Nasus turned and left the empty palace.

Nasus was going to find the mischievous little girl – and the rest of the royal blood, if he could—and the only trouble was that Zelas was probably looking for her as well.

I wish I could be one step faster.

Nasus, holding his cane, left the city of Shurima.

"According to Azir, she left and went east."

"The ...... of the East Side of Shurima City"

"I hope that stubborn little girl doesn't rush headlong into Khalise."

In the sand, Nasus's footsteps drifted away - he now needed to find the mischievous little girl and tell her everything.

The glory of Shurima, the mission of the Emperor's bloodline, the possibility of revival......

And most importantly...... Beware of Zelas's attacks.

"Perhaps...... Will I still be able to see my brother? ”
