Nasus sighed and said solemnly: "It was too long ago..."

"I am very happy when I have just become an ascendant, because the library of the Divine Dynasty is too big. My biggest regret before was that I did not have time to absorb these precious possessions. Now I finally have a long life to read."

"A hundred years have passed by, and I have read all the books and profound ancient texts. The novelty of being able to explore the unknown has disappeared, and the loneliness has caught up with me."

"Due to my personality and identity, I don't have close friendships with other militant ascendants. The high priest also has almost no position to speak of. I fell into a state of sitting alone in the library with nothing to do day after day."

"The library is also empty."

"Until Azir came here."

"The blood of the sun makes us active and warlike, but Azir, who has the blood of the royal family, is quiet and introverted."

“He wasn’t afraid of me and asked me what books I recommended to read.”

"From then on, he came here every day, and sometimes even slept here. He read very quickly, almost reading ten lines at a glance."

"I thought he was swallowing the juicy stuff, but later I found out that he was really gifted. He could accurately tell the contents of a book he read a long time ago, and even tell which page a certain sentence was on in a certain book. A few lines. His talent is superior to mine."

"We sometimes don't say a word for a whole day, but we can feel that we understand each other more and more..."

There was nostalgia in Nasus's eyes: "That's when I understood, could this be the family happiness mentioned in the book..."

"To be honest, at that time, I thought from the bottom of my heart that this eager to learn and quiet child would one day surpass me as a great scholar and become the next great priest."

"But, you already know that due to the death of the king and the princes and princesses, Azir must inherit the position of Sun King."

"This position is not what he wanted. He has been in the library and has no power to plan for the throne."

"At that time, there were many rumors within the divine dynasty, such as Azir murdering the king, and how this weak and unknown prince could serve as a king in a war."

"However, I have said that my talents have made me a victorious general, and Azir, who is even more talented than me, was appointed as the Sun King at the critical moment. He went to the front line personally and finally ended the Void War!"

Having said this, Nasus was quite proud. No matter how talented Azir was, he still needed opportunities to practice, and what supported him was Nasus, a veteran who had been victorious for hundreds of years.

It can be said that Azir's ability to take the throne is inseparable from his merits.

The Void War is over, and the Sun King leads the Ascended Ones back in triumph.

The glory of that scene still makes Nasus fondly remember it.

After all... that was the last glory of the Sun God Dynasty.

From Nasus's words, Chen Ming could feel that he held Azir in high esteem.

This kind of admiration is definitely not the support of the elders to the younger ones who are pleasing to their eyes, but the recognition of the great priest to the Sun King who has been appointed in danger.

However, it was this recognition that brought unexpected disasters.

At that time, Nasus and Azir were both high-spirited, but then, the erosion of the void gradually became exposed.

The ordinary soldiers who participated in the war either died or turned into monsters due to the erosion of the void. Even the noble ascendants gradually started to have this trend.

Azir, who has the blood of the royal sun, but is ultimately not as good as the Ascended One, is somewhere in between.

He didn't turn into a monster right away, but he wasn't far off.

When the symptoms suddenly became apparent, Azir's appearance began to become distorted and his blood became filthy.

Azir, the king who ended the Void War, dies.

To save him, the ascension ceremony is the only possibility.

However, the ascension ceremony cannot be decided by one person. Even the royal blood must abide by the rules of ascension.

Many Ascended Persons have the right to vote, and the Great Priest, due to his status, should maintain a neutral wait-and-see attitude even though he is respected by the Ascending Persons.

At that time, many Ascended Ones divided Azir into three factions.

One part is the opposition represented by Ambises, and this group has the most Ascended Persons.

They believed that Azir sought power and usurped the throne, murdered the late king and all the princes and daughters, and then deceived the high priest.

As for him ending the Void War——

The main forces on the battlefield are soldiers and ascendants, and the leader behind them should be the high priest. What does it have to do with him?

What's more, some of the ascendants come from collateral bloodlines. Now that the main bloodline of the royal family is withering, perhaps this is the day when the collateral lineage will come into its own.

Some people are neutrals. They feel that although Azir seems to have some stains, he personally fought in the Void War and commanded it well, so it is not a bad idea to ascend.

Finally, there are the ascendants who support him, and their number is equivalent to that of the neutrals.

Nasus felt very confused.

His identity and integrity told him that he should remain neutral, but his emotions told him that he was Azir's only support.

This introverted child who originally wanted to spend his life in the library took up the responsibility of the royal blood and went to the front line. He should not be let down.

Finally, Nasus began to convince himself—

He should support Azir, not because of his relationship with Azir, but for the stability of the divine dynasty.

Azir is the only successor to the current main bloodline. If he dies, there is a high probability that it will cause a conflict for the throne.

Moreover, Azir had made great achievements in the Void War and was qualified to welcome the glory of ascension.

As a result, the most respected high priest Nasus personally resigned, the national support rate soared, many neutrals turned to support, and even the opposition began to waver.

With the support of Nasus, preparations began for the ascension ceremony of Sun King Azir.

It is run by the great priest Nasus himself.

However, during Azir's ascension ceremony, Azir's most trusted brother betrayed him.

The general who had risked his life to save Azir several times on the battlefield pounced on him and pushed him down from the ladder of the sun, while he himself was swallowed by the violent sun flames.

Azir's ascension ceremony was destroyed, the sun's energy raged, destroying the city of God, and everything was buried in dust.

By the time Nasus found Azir, Azir had fallen into a coma and was dying from his injuries.

Nasus was afraid that this was a premeditated rebellion, so he raised a storm to block everything, and took advantage of the chaos to take away the Sun Disk, which carried the true fire of the sun, and the seriously injured Azir.

He then used the Sun God Disk to perform a pseudo-ascension ceremony and hanged Azir's life. Therefore, Azir was not a perfect ascendant. He could only maintain his condition by being exposed to the true fire of the sun for a long time.

The two of them sensed that a riot in the Black Abyss was imminent, and ignored the chaotic Shen Dynasty and came to the mouth of the Black Abyss.

Azir burned himself and activated the Sun God Disk to suppress the Black Abyss, while Nasus swept away the void monsters that escaped the seal day after day.

The chaotic divine capital, the collapsed divine dynasty, the fallen ascendants who started the Darkin War...

The Sun King and the Great Priest were unable to stop this.

Therefore, it is not wrong for Ambisses, who is loyal to the divine dynasty, to say that Azir is a sinner and a traitor.

However, Nasus believed that it was his own bias and negligence that caused all this.

He did not dare to face his fellow Ascendants who were getting ugly, and he was unable to control the chaotic and collapsed divine dynasty, so he had to exile himself here, using the excuse of suppressing the void to escape from everything that was irreversible.

Nasus said bleakly: "This is the story of Azir and me, two sinners."
