The Ordinary Me is Worshipped as a Deity by the Extraordinary Them - Chapter 80.2

At this point, Su Li deliberately glanced at Xiao Zuo.

“All I can say is, they…”

“Are worthless.”

Ophelia became interested. She kicked Xiao Zuo, who was still smoothing her wrinkled skirt, and sat down in the chair, gazing at Su Li whose eyes seemed even deeper in the dim light.

“I thought, in your view, the value of human life shouldn’t be so easily dismissed.”

“Although saying this from my mouth makes me feel nauseous. But you, in my various judgments, are absolutely the type of person who values the weight of life extremely.”

“There’s no reward for guessing correctly.” Su Li spread his palms. “I don’t care about those jackals who flock to me like they smelled something delicious, because people have varying degrees of closeness.”

“So, of course, I won’t feel any condemnation for the death of a group of people who might harm me and cause suffering and pain to those around me.”

“I’ll only strike first when they try to attack me.”

Therefore, even if this so-called preemptive strike and some details mislead Ophelia into thinking that he doesn’t value human life either, Su Li wouldn’t extend it to anything else.

Sure enough, the next second Ophelia showed a look of enlightenment.

“But your so-called preemptive strike doesn’t necessarily lead to their death.”

“So you’re still that boring man, only your brain is okay, otherwise you’re completely uninteresting.”

“Hmm…” Su Li pondered for a moment, then decisively agreed with Ophelia’s statement.

“You’re right.”

Ophelia burst into laughter.

She simply said, “Tell me everything you’ve guessed, and I’ll tell you everything I’ve guessed.”

“That’s fair.”

“I don’t think so.” Su Li denied.

“Overly greedy men will have their four limbs chopped off and their fifth limb completely crushed.” Ophelia narrowed her eyes.

Su Li was unfazed.

What he guessed and what Ophelia guessed were not of the same concept.

Regarding information related to himself, Su Li didn’t mind openly stating it.

But for Ophelia, some inherently secretive things simply couldn’t be known by others.

Ophelia asked him to speak out to determine how much he knew and what kind of threat it would pose to her.

“Irrelevant information is completely equivalent to junk information. In terms of my personal safety, I value remaining unchanged in response to all changes.”

Ophelia: “So troublesome…”

Su Li was speechless. “Then why are you still smiling?”

“None of your business.” Ophelia retorted.

“Tell me what you’ve guessed and what information you’ve concluded. In return, you can get any information you want from me, with the limitation being only three questions. And my answers will only be yes or no.” Ophelia held up three fingers.

Su Li immediately decided. “I agree!”

His action stunned Ophelia.

“Although I can see at a glance that you’re a weakling without any elements, you wouldn’t not know that elemental contracts exist, right?”

“As long as you swear to God, you can make any contract that must be obeyed, and the price for violators will be determined by the content of the contract.”

Su Li was speechless again. Let alone how many loopholes there are in the contract…

“When you ask someone a question, do you only determine the answer based on the answer they give?”

“Eyes, micro-expressions, body language, heartbeat, even if a person doesn’t make any expression, just simply stands there, without any change, they are actually already answering.”

“Or, do you not think so?”

Ophelia laughed again.

She didn’t look like the kind of woman who would be thought of as dignified and beautiful when the word princess is mentioned.

Instead, she seemed more free than a freedom-loving mercenary.

And excessively free.

Su Li didn’t care about this; he simply stated his speculations according to Ophelia’s request.

“You and Xiao Zuo are siblings. As the older sister, you don’t have the ice-blue eyes inherited from the Amikbi royal family, so you inherited your mother’s eye color, while Xiao Zuo has ice-blue eyes.”

“Before this, I had already guessed that one of you had a mixed royal bloodline.”

“It’s not Xiao Zuo, so it can only be you.”

Facing Xiao Zuo’s surging killing intent, Ophelia was amused and reached out to stop him from continuing to release this unnecessary aura, which would only cause the other party to be wary.

Su Li continued, “And, the king doesn’t know this information.”

“Furthermore, after knowing Xiao Zuo’s existence, I understood why Qi was exiled to this city. It wasn’t because his talent wasn’t enough, but because Xiao Zuo’s talent was too amazing.”

Under the sun, the stars are dim.

“The king only needs to do one thing: hint to his legitimate wife that the child she gave birth to doesn’t have the ability to inherit the country. Then, as the legitimate wife and one of the Holy Maidens of the Church of Light, in order to prevent her son from becoming a target, she can only compromise.”

Of course, Qi also holds the position of being the eldest son.

From the perspective of the queen, as long as she doesn’t know about Xiao Zuo’s existence, she will only simply regard sending Qi away as a compromise and wait for the opportunity.

“‘One of’ is destined not to represent the absolute.”

Even in those speechless aristocratic gossip history books, which are full of junk information, they have never gossiped about the king marrying a holy maiden.

In other words, this marriage is the first in history.

Innovation means an unknown future, meaning that risks and opportunities coexist.

And for a holy maiden, not being the absolute ‘one of’ proves that she is replaceable. Therefore, even if she has a child, if the child dies, it means nothing.

“Someone who was personally declared by the king as unsuitable to be the next king, but who happened to inherit the orthodoxy and is both the eldest and legitimate son, if he wasn’t sent away, he would probably only become a thorn in the eye of all the children born later in the palace.”

“And as one of the holy maidens, she obviously couldn’t rely on her queen’s status to occupy the first place among the many holy maidens and become an indispensable root for the Pope. So she could only choose to compromise with reality, send her not-so-powerful child away, and then shape herself into a weak and helpless character who can only obey, and secretly plot.”

“Of course, this secret plot is my own speculation; I have no evidence to prove this. But I still think that a person who can sit in the position of a holy maiden of light, and is also ‘one of’, she must see more clearly than… before.”

The name omitted is Egbert.

Those who have always stood at the peak cannot see the chaos below.

And only after a major setback did he recognize reality. No matter how necessary the recognized reality is for Egbert, it still cannot be denied that this is something formed after breaking some important things.

So even though Su Li instantly thought of Egbert, he immediately swallowed the pronunciation of the name back into his mouth.

“The eldest son who was proactively sent away will also be destined to not receive the education of an heir. From the king’s point of view, no matter how Qi develops in the future, whether good or bad, from the moment he was sent away, he was already destined to have no chance of that position. After all, for the king, how can a child he didn’t personally teach be trusted?”

“Similarly, as the eldest princess, you were originally the king’s beloved daughter. When the king publicly showed his affection and used this as a reason to provide resources to Xiao Zuo through you, you only need to proactively tell the king that because Xiao Zuo cannot appear openly and cannot reveal his identity, he cannot properly receive the systematic education of an heir, so you can take his place, learn those things, and then teach them to your half-brother.”

“And the king can also use the excuse of simply loving his daughter to place you on the battlefield for the legitimate heir. No one will suspect you have a problem, the king won’t suspect you, outsiders won’t suspect the king, and at that time, no one will know Xiao Zuo’s existence.”

“Returning to the speculation that you are not the king’s child, I guess you probably knew your true identity before becoming the ‘most favored princess’.”

“And after that, you started to plan for yourself purposefully.”

Su Li glanced at Xiao Zuo; there was no pity in his eyes.

Although he knew that Ophelia probably started to brainwash her half-brother, Xiao Zuo, after knowing that she wasn’t the king’s child.

Otherwise, Xiao Zuo, who is only over ten years old but whose strength is already so strong that he is being guarded by a series of top experts, how could he not be angry when Ophelia kicked him while he was fixing her skirt?

Even now, his eyes are full of affection.

Su Li also has a speculation about Xiao Zuo.

However, Su Li hasn’t finished talking about the speculations related to Ophelia yet.

But just by saying this, Ophelia couldn’t help but clap her hands.

Her admiring gaze fell on Su Li, and she praised without reservation. “If I hadn’t put myself in your position and referred to the known information, I could have roughly guessed these things, otherwise I would have suspected that you were standing from God’s perspective, having read my life in advance.”

Ophelia felt for the first time in her life that someone’s thinking could actually keep up with hers, or rather…

A match for her.

Ophelia’s eyes became sharp, she said, “But you guessed one thing wrong.”

“That is my eyes.” The smile that had condensed in Ophelia’s eyes a second ago instantly turned into ice, “This is not inherited from my mother’s eye color.”

“That woman’s eye color is similar to yours, also emerald green.” Ophelia’s fingers almost touched her eyeball, pointing at her eyes, she said, “These golden eyes inherit from my real father.”

Su Li’s fingers, which were originally resting on the table, twitched uncontrollably at these words.

After these words came out, he couldn’t control his brainstorming.

The king who was cuckolded, what exactly did he experience…

Su Li muttered in a voice so small that he thought only he could hear it, “It be wouldn’t that he believe in atavism, inheriting the eye color of his maternal family?”

“Well, you guessed right this time.” Ophelia readily admitted.

Su Li: “???”

“Are you kidding me?!”

“What exactly did the king experience to believe… to believe such a statement?!”

Ophelia flicked her nails, a cold, inorganic light flickered in her golden eyes, then she said, “I’m not kidding, I’m telling the truth, and that man really believed it.”

“Every time I think about this information, I feel like I’ve seen the funniest thing in the world and can’t help but laugh, hahahahahahaha.”

Ophelia was really laughing wildly.

“That’s the first time I felt that ignorant people can really be this stupid.”

“But later, I put myself in that man’s shoes and felt that it wasn’t impossible.”

Su Li blinked at her, completely engrossed in the sudden gossip.

Ophelia glared back. “What are you looking at? You haven’t finished your guess, have you?”

“Or do you think that this kind of story, which will shock everyone when it’s said, doesn’t deserve to occupy one of your three questions?”

Su Li: “…Your statement is too general. If I can use this to guess a question that allows you to evaluate whether the answer is correct, it means that I already have a clear speculation about your father’s identity. At that time, asking or not asking probably doesn’t matter much, right?”

Ophelia snorted. “None of your business.”

Su Li couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

Apart from Ophelia’s disregard for the life, dignity, personality, and basic human rights of others, Ophelia is still a self-centered joker.

Su Li could clearly see that Ophelia found it interesting that she couldn’t figure out the truth but could only keep brainstorming.

Su Li didn’t have the intention of watching the show.

Instead, he wanted to make Ophelia lively.

“The reason you want to destroy the mercenary city is to prove Xiao Zuo’s absolute strength and the fact that he only listens to you.”

“A perfect tool, except that the strength isn’t on himself, but even so, he can act according to your instructions, and with your calculating ability, which many people find terrifying, I think your plans are definitely not small.”

“The King of Amikbi… to be honest, I think this can only be considered one of your goals, not all of them. But due to insufficient information, I can’t guess what the other one or ones are.”

Su Li always felt that Ophelia was like a book whose ending he could never see in a short time, no matter how much he racked his brains.

And.

This person is still growing.

This is the most terrifying thing.

Su Li, who had lived for 30 years before crossing over and had already reached retirement age, had long labeled himself as having a fixed mindset.

But Ophelia is different; she is only in her teens, an age with countless possibilities.

“So, are you going to ask?” Ophelia held up three fingers again.

“No, don’t try to use the answers to my important three questions to satisfy your gossiping heart.”

“I may be curious about everything that happened to you, but the purpose of sitting here with you is to protect Sadina City. And this will never be forgotten by me.” Su Li emphasized.

Ophelia frowned. “Let me say it again, you are a very, very troublesome man.”

“My honor.” Su Li nodded.

“Also, my three questions are…”
