Chapter 224 Responsibility
Greed blinds the mind, Camille murmured this sentence, she didn't understand why her brother could be so stupid because of profit.
He sent all family members to dangerous places, treated everyone as fools, and thought that no one could see through his scheme.
Where did he think he was?
In the Freljord? He is one of the real top families in Piltover , why would he make such an obvious decision to exclude dissidents?
Do you really think that no one knows that you are planning to send people to a dangerous place?
If that's the case, then...
"You shouldn't be here, Da Ke'er. But, well done."
She looked at the niece in front of her. This niece had shown extraordinary ordinariness, ordinary talents, and ordinary personality since she was a child. No matter who wanted something from her, she could get it. No matter who instructed her to do something, she would do it, but she would usually mess it up.
Such a child is naturally harmless in the Philos family. She herself does not have too many ambitions. As long as the family makes a decision, she will complete it as a task. She is not like other children who regard the power of the family as their own.
And now, when everyone knew the truth, she was sent to do something again.
but……
Can such a guy really survive in the Philos family until now?
Camille couldn't help but think.
Take her for example, she was once the youngest daughter in the family, and finally became the eldest daughter of the family step by step.
There were assassinations by people from other families, accidents, and "real accidents." But there were also struggles between family members, and she was certainly aware of the dangers.
She looked at the pitiful girl in front of her, her innocent yet frightened eyes, and smiled.
"You can go home now, Da Ke'er, everything will be over."
The old parts blocked her from seeing the reality clearly, and she was sure that the letters those people sent her contained absolutely nothing about herself.
What she got from the girl was a catalog of where the rest of the family would go, but this girl's was missing.
But the girl added the destination that Stevan gave her on the last piece of paper.
"St. Boss Workshop, a workshop specializing in the creation and modification of mechanical prostheses."
She only needed to think about it for a moment, and her years of experience would allow her to understand what her brother was going to do and how he was going to do it.
“…”
Camille popped out the hook silently, and her figure disappeared in front of Miss Daker, heading towards the core of the Philos family.
When Camille walked to the door of her brother's room, she saw her brother's confidants.
They had all sorts of fancy hex weaponry pointed at her.
"I'm really annoyed right now, so let's get this over with."
She didn't even have time to give these people a cup of tea. Idiots should always be treated like idiots.
When she pushed open the door and threw the leading mercenary's weapon onto the table, she saw her brother turning around, with no way to conceal the viciousness in his eyes.
"What are you doing? Camille, are you betraying the family?"
"No, Stevan, I just can't let you down anymore. You, the high-spirited man who led the family forward, have gone crazy."
Camille lost her patience with her brother. If Stevan had planned a conspiracy and demonstrated his abilities, she would not be so angry. What made her angry was that Stevan was so stupid.
Betrayal and sacrifice never make her angry.
The only thing that irritated her was stupidity.
"I don't understand why you are so stupid, my brother, but you really treat everyone as fools. You don't even understand how many excellent children your descendants are."
When Camille said this, she thought of Daker. She was not sure whether this girl was really scheming or just simply lucky, because she had seen people who were able to get along with everyone simply by luck.
But her intuition told her that her ordinary niece was really extraordinary.
But her brother only wanted the other person to replace him and become the new "Blue Steel Shadow". A girl who was most suitable to be the head of the family ended up being reduced to a killing machine. This made her think of herself and how her brother begged her to reject that person and become the Blue Steel Shadow.
What did she do all this for?
For loved ones.
For the family.
but……
"You've failed me! Camille! You should have served me! That core should have been mine! You took the core away! You should have obeyed me unconditionally! This is your responsibility!"
Stevan seemed to be aware of Camille's thoughts. He didn't understand why his perfect plan was seen through in an instant. He was enjoying his successful life three minutes ago, but now everything was over.
It only took him one hour from making the plan to being approached by Camille! If Camille hadn't been planning to rebel for a long time, how could he have discovered it so quickly?
So he was very angry. He felt that if his sister Camille had not discovered all this and was unwilling to help him, he would not have failed.
But his words made Camille understand one thing completely.
I turned him into a monster.
This sentence appeared in Camille's mind, and she also thought about why.
She had always tolerated her younger brother and agreed to all his requests, just because she didn't want to lose her last relative. If even he died, then no one would ever know what a gentle girl Camille was, and they would only remember how ruthless the Blue Steel Shadow was.
So she finally hugged her brother.
"Stevan, I obey this family, but you are right, you are indeed my responsibility... but I will never let you down again."
Jumping electric lights emerged from her body, but the process did not last long. Not long after, the head of the Philos family passed away.
When Camille stood up, her life also ended, because none of the Philos members who gathered around her had ever seen what she looked like when she was young.
She looked around at the members of the Philos family who were supposed to be scattered to various places, but did not see her niece. She did not show anything, but she knew in her heart who was the most suitable candidate for the head of the family.
People who secretly control everything are often inconspicuous.
Just like the Philos family.
The next day, when Camille came to Li Ke with profuse apologies and told him that the mastermind behind the scenes had died and he didn't have to worry about anything, Li Ke was at a loss.
"I always feel like I missed out on an adventure of more than 100,000 words, full of love, hatred, conspiracy, and intrigue, mixed with the open and covert struggles for the succession rights of a big family."
Touching his chin, Li Ke said this to Mei Mu.
"Neuropathy."
This was Mei Mu's answer.
