The Joker performed at the center of the stage, surrounded by a sea of jubilant spectators.
Whether it was the performers or the audience, it seemed everyone was receiving pleasure....Lu Ping'an hadn't expected that a casual stroll would lead him to witness such a grand play.
"....Tsk tsk tsk, it really is quite ironic."
Lu Ping'an didn't find the fate of this Your Highness surprising at all, as he had seen too many traitors and worshippers of Evil Gods; he didn't even think that her betrayal and the downfall of this Island Country were directly connected.
The collapse and subjugation of an entire Kingdom are fundamentally only probable due to an absolute gap in power; the traitors are often just part of this inevitable outcome, and to blame the entire world's collapse on them might be giving them too much credit.
They are often just cowards and traitors who realize the situation is grim; they have neither faith nor loyalty, they are the result, not the cause, of failure.
