Changing Life And Career? I Planted The World Tree At The Beginning

She dared only to let half of her buttocks touch the chair, with her hands placed on her knees, sitting very upright, like a first-grade elementary school student being stared at by a teacher.

"Relax a little, don't be so nervous, I won't eat you."

Chen Yu placed a handful of melon seeds in front of Delia and said, "Here, try them, they taste good."

"Mmm, thank you, sir."

Delia imitated Chen Yu's appearance and ate one.

However, due to being too nervous, she couldn't taste the flavor at all.

"A foul smell." Xiao Miao glanced at Delia and flew to Chen Yu's shoulder with a few melon seeds in her arms.

Delia's body immediately stiffened, and her breathing slowed down.

At this moment, Xiao Guang flew over and smiled gently, saying, "Don't be afraid, Xiao Miao doesn't mean anything against you, she just doesn't like all the ignorant livestock and maggots."

After speaking, she also flew to Chen Yu's shoulder with a few melon seeds, sitting next to Xiao Miao.

Delia felt like crying but had no tears, so she could only bury her head even lower.

Fortunately, the other three little spirits didn't pay any attention to her.

Xiao Feng and Xiao Yan were having a melon seed eating contest.

Both little spirits held a melon seed in one hand, chewing with big bites, their cute little faces puffed up.

Xiao An, on the other hand, slowly ate a melon seed while using her tender little feet to play with the melon seed shells, arranging them into various shapes.

After about a minute, Hou Tu flew back.

She landed on the table, cut a melon seed in half with a sword, poured out the two halves of the melon seed, and started enjoying them, one in each hand.

Chen Yu released all the plant lives and blew the horn for dinner.

The plant lives immediately rushed towards the Snowy City.

Seeing this scene, Delia couldn't help but mourn for the Snowy City for a few seconds in her heart.

At the same time, there was also a sense of revenge.

After all, all her difficulties originated from the Queen.

And the Queen was a person of the Stuart Empire.

"Bitch, what expression would you have if you saw this scene today? I'm really looking forward to it!"

Unconsciously, Delia's mouth began to curl upwards.

Suddenly, Chen Yu's whispering voice reached her ears.

"Now, only the Horadric Kingdom is left."

"Twenty main cities plus one royal city, it's probably going to waste a lot of time."

Upon hearing this, Delia's body trembled, and she couldn't help but ask anxiously, "Sir, are you going to destroy the Horadric Kingdom too?"

After all, the Horadric Kingdom was where she grew up.

Apart from the struggle with the Queen and the suffering of persecution, there were many beautiful memories from her childhood.

Knowing that the place she grew up in was about to be destroyed, her heart was filled with panic and reluctance.

"Yeah, do you have any objections?" Chen Yu said casually.

To him, Delia was just a necessary prop.

She might have some thoughts in her heart, but they were not important to Chen Yu.

"No." Delia quickly replied.

She didn't even know if she could save her own life, how could she have any objections?

In fact, as the princess of Heradric, she, like all Western feudal monarchs, only regarded the people as her property.

There was not much affection within the royal family, and it had long been worn away by the persecution of the Queen and the indifference of the old king.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have colluded with the Dark Cult and tried to seize control of the kingdom.

Now, the kingdom was about to be destroyed by a terrifying powerhouse, and she only had some feelings and regrets for the soon-to-be-lost property.

"Sir, may I ask you a question?" Delia asked cautiously.

"You may ask."

"Why do you want to destroy the kingdom, and why did you bring me along?"

"Do you really want to know?" Chen Yu showed a malicious expression, "Are you sure you want me to tell you?"

"I do!"

Seeing that Chen Yu seemed to have a response, Delia was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.

"Alright, I can tell you." Chen Yu's mouth curled up, "But before that..."

"Do you know what your kingdom means to me?"

"A place where I can experience the pleasure of killing and destroying to my heart's content?" Delia cautiously voiced her speculation.

Chen Yu shook his head, then reached out to push the melon seeds and four little spirits on the table aside, and set up a chessboard.

"What is this, do you recognize it?"

"This is... a chessboard for a kind of chess game?"

Even the Horadric Kingdom has chess games.

Chessboards like this are not much different anywhere.

"That's right."

Chen Yu took out the chess pieces and filled the chessboard.

"The chess pieces are placed on the chessboard, and the chessboard gives them identity and responsibilities."

"King, minister, knight, chariot, army..."

"Do you think if the chess pieces had life and thoughts, would they consider the chessboard as their world?"

"Now, let the game begin."

"But it's not a game between two sides."

"But..."

"Another party enters the scene, capturing pieces for points!"

Chen Yu placed an extra chess piece on the chessboard and used it to capture all the chess pieces on the board.

Then he showed the captured chess pieces to Delia.

"Look, my score is very high now, I have won!"

After listening to Chen Yu's narration, a great fear struck Delia's heart.

A chill rose from her spine and invaded her limbs.

She was not a fool and naturally understood the meaning behind Chen Yu's words.

This chessboard is the Horadric Kingdom.

The two sides on the chessboard are the kingdom and the Demon Dragon, or herself and the queen.

And Chen Yu is the chess piece that just entered and captured all the pieces on the board!

Everything Chen Yu did was not about enjoying killing or having hatred towards the kingdom, but only for...

Scoring, victory!

And she, the queen, the Dark Demon Cult, the Snowfield City, are all just chess pieces already placed on the board, waiting to be taken for points!

As a chess piece, everything about her is false.

Her identity, her position, her memories, and even her grudge against the queen, are all bestowed by higher-level beings.

Her existence is only meant to be the background of a game.

And after the game ends, where will the chess pieces go?

Will they be stripped of everything and put back into the chess box, or will they be placed back in position, waiting for the next game to begin?

At that time, will she still be herself?

If it were at the beginning, when she heard Chen Yu's words, she might not have felt this deeply.

But now, she has clearly felt the existence of "shackles" and "prison".

This is undoubtedly the most direct evidence for the term "chessboard".

"What should I do?"
