"You have a pretty complicated relationship." Wain said, standing in the aisle.
"No, it's simple. They will join us, or we will resolve this conflict by force. I don't have time to waste negotiating, the city's life is threatened, and the situation is getting worse by the day, they don't understand that." Leon said.
Leon was known as a calm, cold, and tough man. He rarely compromised because he always understood the solutions and would not accept other options. Some people criticized this way of thinking, but others, the contrary, thought it was the right thing to do.
Everyone had an opinion, but no one questioned Leon's power and influence. They knew that at the right moments, he became tough and cold-blooded.
"What are you going to do next?"
"What I planned originally. Tomorrow the Scarlet Rose Family and our allies will march to the entrance of the Lotus District. I have been informed that the situation has deteriorated and something has happened there. Regardless of what the Fallen Lotus Family decides, my choice will not change. If you haven't already changed your mind, I'll see you here tomorrow." Leon uttered and headed for his office.
"Wain, are you sure?" Eva asked.
"Hmm? You don't want to go to the Lotus District? You don't have to go with me if it bothers you."

"No, that's not what I'm talking about." Eva shook her head, "Are you sure you want to wait until tomorrow? We don't have to go with the Scarlet Rose Family."
"Huh, are you suggesting we go to the Lotus District right now? I don't mind, but it might not make sense. If the passage is protected, we will incur the wrath of the Fallen Lotus Family and the Scarlet Rose Family. They might see us as enemies, and then we'd be in trouble."
Wain shared the position of the Fallen Lotus Family in some ways. He, like them, wanted to use the Blood Lotuses to raise his blood purity.
When Leon asked whose side they were on, Wain contemplated joining the Fallen Lotus Family. It made sense, since then, the number of blood lotuses would gradually increase, and Wain could definitely raise his blood purity enough, but he gave up on the idea.
Wain didn't know if he needed so many blood lotuses since everything had limits and hundreds of flowers might be useless to him. He also didn't want anything bad to happen to Virfal because of it. Wain believed that the Plants, at least the Scarlet Rose Family and their allies, could cooperate with the humans.
"Okay, I hear you. What are we going to do before the operation begins?" Eva asked.
Wain looked downtown and smiled, "That's obvious. Now we have a chance to go to the main square and see the Statue of the Hero up close. We have to do it, we can't miss such a chance. Perhaps after the war, this statue will be destroyed."
"Is this another date?" Eva grinned.
"Huh, maybe it's also where we might meet Feno. I'm sure he's still admiring that statue."

"Then go ahead." Eva said and took Wain's hand.
...
Wain and Eva walked through town and enjoyed the scent of flowers. Eva was thrilled as it was a paradise for any girl in the Rose District. Wain was focused on a slightly different scent.
Three strands of bloody scent connected and led in one direction, downtown, where the Lotus District or Zone Zero was located.
"Here we are." Wain pronounced stepping into the main square.
The Hero Statue looked a hundred times better and more majestic than it did from afar. A powerful aura emanated from it as if the hero were still alive.
You felt the energy of someone who was strong and brave enough to win the war and ensure peace for thousands of people through your actions.
*Your psychological resilience in the face of deadly situations is greatly enhanced.]
"Did you see that?" Eva asked. She got the Title, too.
"Yes, we definitely didn't come here for nothing, but now it's time to pick our next destination."
Wain didn't expect that one could get the Title just by looking at the Statue of someone great. It was a revelation to him.
"Hey, isn't that Feno?" Eva said, pointing toward the store on the opposite street.
'ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ No(ve) l Bi n',
Feno was standing in front of a wide windshield, behind which were shelves of various books.
Wain and Eva headed toward him.

Feno's eyes brightened. He liked what he saw and decided to enter the store.
"Who are you?" Suddenly two men and one girl appeared next to Feno. They looked at him with disdain. Each of them was dressed in luxurious clothes, flashy and tasteless.
"It looks like a commoner."
"Ugh, how did he get in here. His mere presence pollutes Hero Statue Square."
These three were among the nobles who supported leaving the Statue of Hero in the Rose District. They, like many nobles, were pompous and thought they were better than others. To them, commoners were something unpleasant or even disgusting.
"What do you want from the menu?" Feno muttered.
The nobles smiled.
'This chapter is updated by Nov elB i n',
"I think we should correct this misunderstanding." Said one of the nobles and, with an evil grin, gave Feno a hard slap.
Feno did not have time to react or defend himself and was thrown back. He clutched his cheek in pain, and his eyes grew wet. He could hardly hold back tears from the hurt and humiliation he felt.
"Why are you doing this...?"
"What? We're just letting you know that you, a commoner, don't belong here. You should be grateful to us for that. Go back to your neighborhood and stay there. You should know your place."
The others nodded, "I still don't understand why commoners are allowed into the Rose District. It's a big mistake."
"Excuse me."
Someone touched the shoulders of the two nobles standing nearby. They turned around and saw a beautiful girl with short gray hair.
"Hello, can I help you?" The men smirked.
"Yes, I need to solve a problem."
"And what problem is that?"
"It's you." Eva smiled and grabbed their heads. She pressed down with force and turned the two of them into tortillas, breaking their bones and shattering their vertebrae into tiny shards.
