Lord of the Truth

941  Aro's fate n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Ah..." Flora took a step back in shock, both hands covering her open mouth, but she couldn't cover her crying eyes

Aro... He had always been the perfect man in her eyes, a true hero who would face all difficulties on behalf of everyone, if the sky fell on their heads he would carry it alone even if he knew it would break his neck!

Although he was born in the Lightning Bull tribe that was treated like a meat warehouse, although he saw hell as a child and watched his family being dragged to their last glimmer screaming, although he made his way to the top with his teeth and nails!! ...He didn't take revenge on everyone, but rather he was satisfied with proving his strength and protecting the rest of his tribe, so he ruled everyone with justice and honor!

But now after hearing Robin, and seeing Aro's reaction... He..?!

"...." When Aro noticed his lover's reaction, he felt his heart clench, so he reached out and pulled his spear from the ground and shouted towards Robin, "Dammit... DAMMIT!! What did you gain out of this? Could you just shut your damn mouth and get it over with?! You deserve to die!!"

Robin laughed and returned to look ahead, "Relax, tough guy, or your wounds will open again. Even if you were in your best condition you wouldn't be able to touch a hair of mine."

*Craack* Aro pressed the spear with all his might, then *Baa* threw it aside

"... All you had to do was kill me, what's the point of all this chatter?" Aro muttered weakly as he sat back down, "Yes, everything you said is true, but what then? I took advantage of the situation to clear the future. If you saw what I saw I wouldn't be surprised, if you knew that all the stronger tribe leaders obeyed my orders knowing what I wanted to do because they also wanted to take advantage of the opportunity like me, you wouldn't have called me two-faced... I've heard about your home planet, someone who has seen bliss since childhood has no right to judge anyone."

"I haven't judged anyone yet, all I did was explain the events, I'm just trying to understand the person in front of me." Robin smiled, "I've always wondered why a group of hooligans like the Orphan Blood Planet's tribe leaders would take an honest and honorable person as their leader when they could simply gang up on you and kill you, it defies logic, but now I understand. You, who are not even 100 years old yet, are more evil than all of them."

Aro sent an angry glance at him, "Humph, and then what? What did you gain after you understood? If you had killed me a moment ago, I would have died as a martyr in the eyes of the people, Flora would have ruled the rest of the orphan's blood justly for the sake of my memory, and you would have had an obedient planet with few inhabitants that you could shape as you wish, but now she hates me, and if you spread these words everyone will reject her as a leader and chaos will reign again!"

"Stop saying that, you won't die!!" Flora recovered from her initial shock and took two steps forward then looked at the ground, "Aro, I.. I don't hate you!! I took a moment to comprehend what he said, that's all..."

"Grow up a little!" Aro shouted at Flora, "This is the world we live in, I had a chance to give you and my tribe a peaceful future and I took it, and now this person has a chance to kill me to have a peaceful future and he will take it, this is life, whoever seizes their chance first wins!" "...!!" Flora gasped and quickly turned to Robin, "Your Excellency, why don't you say something?!"

"...?" Aro's eyebrows sunk and he turned to Robin as well.

As for Robin, he laughed, "From the beginning, I had no intention of killing you, especially when I received your attack that day on the Demon City wall and felt your exceptional talent that I had never seen before, I told myself that this person should be working for me, but according to my old belief of you as a strict, honorable person who does not know when to stop, a fool that would inevitably be defeated by Sakaar, I was planning to make you Caesar's right hand, or be my personal guard for example, but now that you have admitted your evil truth..."

"..." Flora and Aro narrowed their eyes even more, she was thinking of a way to defend him, while he was thinking of a way to make her lose consciousness until the execution happened.

At this moment, Robin turned his body towards Aro completely, smiling, "... After learning your truth and the depth of your evil thinking, I decided that you would be a good general!"

"Huh?!"

Robin smiled, "There is nothing to surprise you here, I am A Planetary Emperor, I do not conquer planets with roses and jasmine, but bloody wars! My top generals must be extremely strong and cunning like scorpions to subdue my enemies with the least amount of time and losses," Then he turned to Flora, "If we talk about chivalry and standing up for the right, there is no one better than Billy in these matters, but you may have noticed that although he is my cousin and friend, he has not been given a high leadership position for a while, and in the Seven Planets War he was not sent anywhere but was kept at the headquarters, and there is also Elizabeth, she prefers to minimize losses from both sides as much as possible and does not make noticeable progress like the rest, this will be her last mission as a general to get a good finale by conquering a planet on her own, after which I will give her one of the planets to take care of in peace away from wars." After which he looked back at Aro, "I don't need kind and honest people, I need monsters, and you are a monster in heart and body... What do you think, will you follow me?" "...Aren't you afraid that I will stab you in the back when the opportunity arises?" Aro muttered in shock, even if he had hoped for mercy when Robin arrived, when he mentioned what he had done he lost all hope!

"Haha that's another topic," Robin laughed out loud, "If you agree, I'll make adjustments to the oath board and take my time to coordinate the most powerful oath anyone has ever taken, then you can try your luck~"

"...What do I get if I agree?" Aro asked nervously

"Basically, you'll be a citizen of the True Beginning Empire and have all the rights like everyone else, you'll get the title of General, and you'll get the status of a governor like Alexander, only three individuals will have a higher status than you, they are me, Caesar, and Sakaar. I'll give you the planet Orphan Blood Planet to manage as you wish and provide you with resources to strengthen its people, I'll give you 30% of the prisoners I brought with me so you can quickly strengthen yourselves and reach at least the same level of power as Planet Greenland, and I'll also allow you and everyone who obeys you to move around my planets as you wish, and they man settle elsewhere if they want but they will still have to answer to you."

"Of course, all of this you will get after I am assured that the oath went as I wanted," then Robin's tone changed slightly to seriousness, "After that, you must take into account that you are taking care of the planet and its inhabitants for my sake, you WILL forget any previous differences and grudges, if I hear that you are reducing the population of my empire on purpose again I will not be merciful."

"...!!!" Flora looked at Aro quickly with her eyes wide open as if she was begging him to agree.

"...My life was yours to kill, if you want to use it for something else, I'm fine with it as long as you don't humiliate me... I agree." After a long silence, Aro looked at the ground and let out a long sigh, he had put a step in the death gate and then pulled it back!

"Ah!!" Flora screamed happily and jumped towards Aro with her hands wide open, only now could she breathe a sigh of relief.

"Today I got myself a strong general, and you got yourself a ticket out of this mess, and I know that neither of us will regret it!" Robin clapped with laughter then motioned for Aro to get up, "Get up, I've postponed the sacrifices long enough, come with me, you'll be the one to supervise the process."
