My Players Are So Fierce

Chapter 2834 -945: Bearing All Evil, Serving Hope; This Body Is Dead, Awaiting the Future (Part 2)

We have already missed the most beautiful blueprint that the creator planned for this world, and we can never get such a chance again. Everyone is just a miserable being rotting in the mire, each in their own way, so no one should laugh at anyone else.

However, I think you can rest assured.

No matter how bad Hog does, he can never be ten or a hundred times better than the current state of the Wolf People. At least your children do not have to experience everything you did.

You are a very unsuccessful commander, Huggesen; you are neither a perfect Barbarian Soldier nor a perfect hunter. You vowed to avenge Botana, yet in the end, you joined forces with the enemy to kill your god. You are neither a devout believer nor a qualified son.

You abandoned your wife, leaving her to endure each lonely night thinking of you until her old age and death; therefore, you are not a qualified husband.

But, you were a good father…

You personally created a future for your children.

They will be grateful to you; all the Wolf People born from this point will be grateful to you.”

“No need! Why should they be grateful to a slaughterer, a failure, and an evil god-chosen?”

Huggesen said firmly:

“Please tell Hog that my name does not need to appear in the history he writes. Let me bear all of this and then be forgotten. Only when these unbearable and ugly thousand years are forgotten, can the Wolf People truly say goodbye to the past and embark on the future.”

“You are wrong, Huggesen. You are very wrong.”

Murphy glanced back at the Swamp Forbidden Area behind him, where Triss was leading the limping Death Claw here. He turned his head to Huggesen and said:

“You cannot forget the history of the past thousand years. Concealing the ugliness and failures of the past cannot make you grow, and pretending not to see the fall and struggle of your ancestors cannot forge new backbones for you. I guess Hog not only will give you a bold stroke in his history but will also write extensively about your story.

He will neither hide your downfall nor criticize your sudden awakening.

He will record everything and tell it to every Wolf Person willing to listen, then let them answer for themselves.

Forgetting the past means betraying the present and the future, and trying to completely cover up the sins of the past can only create a group of pitiable clowns without a backbone. That is how civilization is born, Huggesen, drawing nourishment from the past to support the present, and using the past experience to explore the path to the future.

If your people do not know where you come from, they will not know where to go.”

“Alright, alright, what you said makes sense. It seems I really am a savage Wolf Person, unable to stand at the same height as you civilized leaders.”

Huggesen let out a self-deprecating laugh and then fell silent.

Murphy smiled, and then asked:

“When we met above, I once asked you that question. I asked what you were thinking along this path, and you told me that only when you kill me or I kill you would you spend time revealing that answer.

It is time.

Speak.

After all, I have to engrave something on your epitaph.”

“Did I not already say it? I want to bear the sins of the Wolf People of the past to express our repentance in the most extreme way. I know one day I will become the vessel when The Master of Hunting comes to earth, and I will exert all my effort to trap Him to create an opportunity for all the righteous people to kill Him.”

In these final moments, Huggesen said in a light tone:

“Someone has to take this step, like the first person to climb out of the mire, to open their eyes from the illusory future woven by The Master of Hunting and face this cruel world directly. I cannot be a leader like Hog, but at least I can be a bearer.

All the evil falls upon me, so after I die, Hog can paint on a cleaner canvas, which is why I am here, and I have brought all the most insane villains I could find here to start a war with you that I cannot possibly win.

But this is also a trial, Murphy.

When I decided to entrust the future of my civilization and race to an outsider and the agents he nurtured, I had to use my way to confirm that you were enough to take on the full responsibility.

If even the Black Disaster I brought cannot be dealt with by you, then Hog’s so-called new future is destined to be only a beautiful and unrealistic drama.

Fortunately, you gave me a perfect answer.

Do you know? Murphy.

On the battlefield of the Klim Fortress, when I saw with my own eyes that you brought Cardman City back from the Star Realm, I realized you were the right person.

At least if it were me, facing such a war in your position, I would have no time to attend to other matters. To win, I would have to give up everything, to survive, I would have to sacrifice something. In my view, sacrificing the present can be appropriate for tomorrow.

But you did not do so.

You see, this is the difference between you and me.

Not only did you win, but you also completed the rescue. I was assured that in the most challenging moments of the future, I need not worry that you would use the Wolf People we exhausted all efforts to pull out from the mire as cannon fodder…

You won.

You won decisively and cleanly, winning with dignity, earning my heartfelt admiration. But I am still curious, just how did you do it? Was it solely relying on those foreigners?”
