"Then I can avenge my family."
[His voice was choked with sobs, his grief palpable.]
[The scene shifts to an elderly man clutching a camera, pleading.]
"When can I go back to my hometown? It's been completely destroyed by the Black Flag."
Behind the old man lies a city engulfed in flames, gradually turning into ruins.
【"call out."】
Milong quickly turned off the TV, completely stunned.
[Then he clutched his head in anguish.]
[A torrent of emotions surged into my heart: agonizing, regretful, frustrated, suffocating.]
"How many people's lives must I trample on to achieve the happiness I desire?"
[Milon muttered to himself.]
In the room, only Milon remained, covering his face in anguish, suppressing the turmoil within him, a somewhat desolate scene.
"Migi, I no longer deserve your forgiveness."
[The screen changes. 】
Outside the inner door of the screening room, Milon quietly watched the boy, his memory merging with reality, and he murmured to himself.
【"Oooohhhhhhh~"】
The boy curled up in front of Milon, burying his face in his hands and sobbing, still clutching the broken nunchucks tightly in his hands.
The short blade slammed down!
But then, the short blade was found embedded in the crack of the door.
"Hmm, huh?"
[Asceo frowned slightly, indicating that he didn't understand what Milon was doing.]
"Grandpa Asio!"
【"ah?"】
Two pirates hurriedly ran down the stairs not far away.
"All the money that Milon prepared, except for the first box, was fake."
One of the pirates hurriedly said.
"What?! It's fake?!"
[Asceo's expression suddenly turned cold, and he turned to glare angrily at Milon.]
"That money has been anonymously donated to children orphaned during the war."
[Milon said calmly, as he suddenly swung the short blade in his hand upwards, shattering the iron chains locking the gate.]
"You clown who's all acting, how dare you defy the Black Flag!"
[Asceo's voice was filled with rage; his eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Milon with a predatory gaze.]
[“Hmph~”]
Milong gave a soft snort.
"I originally planned to leave today, but I never expected..."
Milong crouched down slightly, picked up the boy's glasses, and put them back on him.
"Silly boy."
[Milon said softly, trying to comfort him.]
"What?" The boy reacted, looking at Milon in disbelief.
As the chains snapped, the doors to the screening room slowly opened, and the audience, who had been engrossed in the film, began to express their dissatisfaction.
"We were just getting to the exciting part, what's going on?"
"What is that?"
"Miron! Miron! Miron!"
The audience in the screening room cheered excitedly when they saw Milon's appearance.
The three boys who had previously torn up the boy's ticket were taken aback when they saw the boy at Milon's feet.
"Isn't that a little mouse?"
The green-haired boy exclaimed in shock.
"How did he end up next to Milon?"
The brown-haired boy looked resentful, seemingly feeling unworthy to be next to Milon, or perhaps resentful that he wasn't the one standing beside Milon!
Chapter 24 Mi Long Kneels Down, the Truth!
(Who would have thought that the reason why the legendary Milan Kwan knelt down was because of him?)
【"you……"】
The boy stared blankly at him.
"This is the last thing I'll do for Migi."
[Milon lowered his eyes and said.]
After speaking, Milon gradually recalled a scene from several years ago.
[A few years ago, Mido Star. 】
"Milon, how do you grow your flowers?"
The flower field was bursting with blooms, each flower bathed in the warm glow of the setting sun, displaying a myriad of shapes and vibrant colors.
"You won't be able to sell it for a good price like this."
[The camera pans slightly, revealing Milon's garden nearby. The flowers in his garden are noticeably less vibrant than those in the adjacent fields, while the weeds grow exceptionally lush and taller than the flowers.]
Milong, dressed in a gardener's uniform, slowly walked into the flower field, looking at the scene before him with some astonishment.
"Silly girl."
[Milong bent down and squatted on the ground, smiling at Miji beside him.]
"If these weeds aren't pulled out, they'll steal nutrients from the flowers."
As he spoke, Milon reached out to pull out the weeds.
【"don't want!"】
Miji quickly reached out to stop Milon.
"Everyone wants to grow up, and they haven't done anything wrong."
"But grass isn't as pretty as flowers."
Milong explained.
Migi, unperturbed, gently stroked the grass with his palm.
"Flowers only look beautiful when the weeds are pulled out, but the weeds themselves can't see it. How can someone who does such a cruel thing have the right to appreciate beautiful flowers?"
【"Um."】
[Milon sighed softly, then said indulgently.]
"Okay, let them grow like this."
"Hehe, everyone, grow up without worry."
Hearing his brother's words, Miji smiled happily.
"I just can't do anything with you."
Milong chuckled and scratched his head, then gazed at the distant sunset.
As the sun sets, its orange-red afterglow paints the white clouds crimson, creating a sense of tranquility and peace.
【Sudden!】
[“Boom!”]
A deafening roar erupted without warning, followed by a terrifying explosion that sent a massive, blazing fire soaring into the distance!
"Ah!" Migi exclaimed in surprise.
The flower field was instantly transformed into barren, scorched earth. Thick black smoke billowed, creating an apocalyptic scene that enveloped the entire sky. Debris flew everywhere, and dust swirled!
As the memories slowly faded, Mi Long looked at what lay before him with a melancholy expression.
"That was the only flower field in the world, and it only exists in our hearts now. I don't want to destroy it."
"Milon, you..." The boy stared blankly at Milon.
……
"Of course, the grass can survive. It only needs the strong to help the weak, and the radiance of harmony will shine on everyone." —Honkai Impact 3rd: Starry Sky Railway World, Robin.
"As long as everyone follows the rules, they will naturally get what they want." Honkai Impact 3rd: Starry Sky Railway World, Sunday.
"If even the smallest grass needs to be given enough nutrients, the resources required are enormous. For long-term development, this is digging our own grave!" Morgan (Lord of Lighthouse City) in the Ling Cage World.
"This is simply because our production knowledge and production levels are too backward and cannot keep up with the ever-increasing material demands, which leads to a large-scale shortage of resources. Technology is the primary productive force." - Angel Yan, Super God Academy World.

"elder brother……"
The tears that Migi had been holding back burst forth instantly.
The gardener, who was on good terms with Migi, quickly stepped forward and gently comforted him.
……
[The scene continues.]
"No matter how small the blade of grass, keep living."
Mi Long chuckled.
[“Heh~”]
[Asceo sneered, his figure suddenly appearing behind Milon.]
"Hey!" the boy shouted, trying to remind Milon.
【"boom!"】
But it was too late. Milon's disheveled figure was sent flying backward, crashing heavily onto the stage.
"Since you're so eager to be a hero, then so be it."
[Asceo stomped hard on Milon's stomach, then pulled up his hood and mask, and said viciously.]
"What's going on?" asked a member of the audience, puzzled.
"Everyone!"
[Asio shouted towards the audience.]
"I'm a fan of this Milon, just like you, but I only realized today that he doesn't know any martial arts at all."
As Asio spoke, he twisted Milon's stomach hard with his foot, then grabbed Milon by the collar and delivered a powerful punch to Milon's abdomen.
"Hehehehehe!"
[Asio sneered as he watched Milon retreat, clutching his stomach.]
"Oh dear, someone as weak as me can't possibly be harder to deal with than the Black Flagship Team, can he?"
