Chapter 158: Rowe’s Performance

When everyone heard what Rowe said, they all rushed forward and to plead with him.

“Lord Leader, our Lieluo Army is about to start a war with the Empire! You must not make such a decision at such a crucial moment!”

Dali implored Rowe.

Following Dali’s entreaties, Rowe continued to speak.

“I think you guys don’t see me as your leader at all. Forget it, men! I don’t want to be the leader of the Lieluo Army any longer!”

Following Rowe’s order, a large number of soldiers from the Lieluo Army quickly crowded into the room.

Romon stood to the side as he observed Rowe’s actions. Throughout this, he remained silent. He seemed to have understood the meaning behind Rowe’s actions.

Then, he smiled as he looked at Sifusco and Dali.

At the same time, Sifusco and Dali seemed to have sensed Romon’s gaze on them. After which, the two of them once again stepped forward and spoke to Rowe.

“Sir Leader, our Lieluo Army really can not do without you!”

“Move aside!”

Rowe let go of Dali’s hand that was tugging at him. Then, he walked towards the gathered soldiers in the room.

Then, Rowe faced the soldiers and addressed them.

“Soldiers, the greatest enemy of our army, the mastermind behind the Empire’s northern front, Higgis, has now surrendered to us.”

When the soldiers heard this, all of them began to look at Higgis viciously.

“That’s right! That’s him! The last time our army fought against the army led by Higgis, many of our brothers died!”

“That d*mned fellow! Now he actually wants to surrender to us? What wishful thinking!”

When Higgis heard this, he could not help but feel a trace of fear in his heart.

However, Rowe continued to speak.

“Right now, Haggis has brought all the information and surrender of the Empire. If I accept Haggis’ surrender and let him go, then I will be letting down the dead brothers of our Lieluo Army.”

“But, if I don’t accept his surrender and don’t accept the information that he gave us, then I will be letting down the brothers who are still alive!”

After saying this, Rowe paused a while before continuing.

“Because of this, I have decided to step down from the position as leader of the Lieluo Army! If anyone wants to be the leader, then please come and take this position!”

When they heard Rowe’s proclamations, one by one, all the soldiers present started to speak up.

“This can’t be! Leader! It can’t be!”

“That’s right! Leader, if you are not our leader, who else would be qualified enough to lead us?”

Seeing that the time seemed to be ripe now, Rowe continued to speak.

“But if I accept Haggis’ surrender, how could I possibly have any self-respect to meet those brothers who have died on the battlefield?”

With that, Rowe quickly drew Dali’s sword out in front of him, feigning an action of wanting to commit suicide.

When everyone saw Rowe’s action, they all stepped forward to stop him and begged.

“Don’t do it! Leader! Please don’t do it!”

Seeing that the atmosphere had gotten very intense, Rowe covered his face and cried.

“I’ve let you down, dead soldiers! I, Rowe, am useless! I can’t let down the lives of the people who are still alive!”

The soldiers had just woken up from their sleep.

So, they were dazed when they saw their respected leader in such a fragile state.

Each and every one of them covered their faces and cried bitterly.

“Lord Leader! You should let Higgis go, Lord Leader!”

“Yes! Yes! Lord Leader, we know that you’re doing this for our good, but it’s better if you let him go first!”

“That’s right! Sir Leader, the most important thing now is to take down the Empire!”

When Rowe saw this, he continued to dramatize his act to the climax.

He then asked the crowd, “But how can I let everyone down…”

Romon, who was still standing at the side, saw that the situation had almost reached its peak, so he decided to finally open his mouth to speak to Rowe.

“Big Brother, in my opinion, I think you’d better let Higgis go first. Let’s give him a chance to redeem himself!”

After Romon finished speaking, he gave Rowe a look.

The soldiers came forward to dissuade Rowe again.

When Rowe saw this, he raised the sword in his hand again.

He then stabbed the palm of his own hand.

When the soldiers saw this, they all started to scream.

“No! Leader! No!”

Rowe saw that the situation had reached its climax, so he opened his mouth and shouted out to everyone.

“If I don’t take down the Empire, I, Rowe, will not be human any longer!”

Inspired by this, the lion in the hearts of all the soldiers of the Lieluo Army seemed to have awakened.

Following this, all of them opened their mouths and roared towards the sky.

“If I don’t take down the Empire, I swear I won’t be a human any longer!”

At that moment, the whole of Lecter City was filled with the roars of these strong soldiers.

Rowe then stretched out his hand towards Higgis who was kneeling on the ground and pulled him up. Then, Rowe opened his mouth and said to him, “Higgis, I’ll spare your life for now!”

Upon hearing these words, Higgis immediately spoke to Lowe.

“Sir Leader! I will definitely not let down your expectations of me. I will definitely help us set up an army to take down the Empire as soon as possible!”

Higgis then once again handed over the blueprint that he had been holding tightly in his hands.

When Rowe received the blueprint from Higgis, he grasped it tightly in his hands and raised it above his head.

Then, Rowe roared at the sky.

“Empire! Sano! I will not live under the same sky as you any longer!”

…

When all the soldiers had dispersed, only Rowe, Romon, Dali, Sifusco, Lecter, and Higgis were left in the room.

It was then that Romon chose to speak to Rowe.

“Congratulations, Big Brother, for adding another brave general to our army!”

When Rowe heard Romon’s words, he laughed loudly towards the sky and said, “What did you think? My acting wasn’t bad, right?”

“Of course! Leader, especially with the tears you cried just now, no one else could compare!”

Dali replied to Rowe in amusement.

Rowe turned to look at Haggis and said, “Higgis, if I had not acted like that just now, I’m afraid that you would not be able to leave this place alive today!”

Seeing this, Higgis also said respectfully.

“Thank you for your help, Leader! Higgis will never forget it!”
