Guard Captain Nair was kneeling at the ring in the central plaza of the underground city. He was kneeling in front of Joelson, and his face was full of pain.

At this moment, Guard Captain Nair’s heart was suffering too much. Such suffering made Guard Captain Nair’s heart extremely uncomfortable.

With regards to Joelson’s request, Captain Nair should have been willing to go through fire and water. With regards to any of Joelson’s wishes, Captain Nair should have been willing to do anything.

But at this moment, Captain Nair was unable to fulfill Joelson’s wish and was unable to provide any help to the other party.

This made Captain Nair’s heart extremely uncomfortable at that moment.

It was really too uncomfortable.

Captain Nair knelt on the ground with a pained expression. He knelt in front of Joelson. At this moment, he only had one wish, and that was that Joelson could take back his orders.

Joelson’s orders caused Captain Nair’s heart to feel extremely uncomfortable!

Joelson looked at Captain Nair in front of him. He looked at Captain Nair who was kneeling on the ground and felt a wave of helplessness in his heart.

Of course, he knew how helpless and uncomfortable Nair was.

Just now, Joelson gave an order.

He appointed Nair as the next king of the underground city, and Vice-Captain Hansen controlled the military power of the underground city.

However, what Joelson did not expect was that Nair could not accept this seemingly beautiful proposal.

Joelson really had no way of succeeding the king because, in his heart, Joelson had a higher level of ambition and more things to accomplish. For Joelson, such days did not have any aspirations for him.

The mysterious broken skin of the death artifact, the more powerful dragon egg of the death magic dragon… Whatever it was, it kept Joelson moving forward without stopping.

For ordinary people, it might be very comfortable to be the king of a country. For ordinary people, the position of the king seemed to be very beautiful.

But for Joelson, these things were too illusory.

Joelson still had higher goals and more things he wanted to accomplish.

Joelson was really disdainful of the empty position of the king.

He had thought that Captain Nair would readily accept his proposal, but he had never thought that it would be a real torture for Captain Nair.

Yes, it was torture.

Because this kind of job was not a good job for Captain Nair!

Because of the position of king, Captain Nair really could not accept it.

Captain Nair was very clear in his heart that he could not replace Joelson and become the king of the underground city.

Because the only one who could lead the underground city to prosperity was Joelson!

Captain Nair was very clear in his heart that the prosperity of the underground city needed someone. If he took the position of king, the best-case scenario would be to take the underground city to the same place.

But it was different for Joelson.

If Joelson became the king of the underground city, with Joelson’s superb strength and his talent as a wise monarch, he would definitely be able to make the underground city an extremely powerful existence in the entire underworld!

Captain Nair felt a wave of excitement in his heart.

This was something that only Joelson could do!

At this moment, Joelson had made Captain Nair the king.

Captain Nair understood that this was a cushy job. Becoming a king stood at the pinnacle of power. Food and drink were the best in the underground city. There was no one who could not enjoy the fine wine and be inexhaustible!

Who could refuse such a life?

However, Captain Nair was very clear in his heart. He could not take over, he could not enjoy the glory and wealth, he could not do whatever he wanted because of his selfish desires. These regrets could not be compared to one regret, that was, Joelson could not lead the underground city out of the Wailing Abyss and out of this damned land of extreme ice!

The residents of the underground city had already endured the pain for thousands of years. The pain of not being able to walk out of the Wailing Abyss was obviously more important than their own selfish desires!

For the residents of the underground city, if they really became the king because of these selfish desires, it would be truly irresponsible!

Joelson had the ability to make the underground city go to the Underworld, so he could not agree to Joelson’s request.

Even if Joelson asked him to do so, the captain of the guards, Nair, would not allow him to do such a thing!

The captain of the guards, Nair, was very clear in his mind. Perhaps if he used this as an excuse and did not reject the proposal, perhaps he would be happy for a period of time after Joelson left.

After all, who would not feel happy and happy after becoming a king and reaching the pinnacle of power and status?

However, Captain Nair could not feel happy at all.

In fact, for the rest of his life, Captain Nair would regret sitting on the throne. He would regret why he had agreed to Joelson on that day and regretted not rejecting him that day!

The captain of the guards would grow old in regret. He would welcome his own death in regret.

This was the reason why the captain of the guards could not accept Joelson’s request.

However, the fact that he could not agree to Joelson’s request made the captain of the guards uncomfortable.

This was because Joelson owed the captain of the guards a favor that was almost impossible to repay. The captain of the guards, who had wanted to repay the favor, should have complied with all of Joelson’s intentions and fulfilled all of Joelson’s requests to repay him.

However, at this moment, Guard Captain Nair was doing the exact opposite.

The Guard Captain Nair had no choice but to reject the favor of Joelson’s rebirth. This kind of thing made Guard Captain Nair’s heart suffer a great deal of pain.

Joelson’s favor to Guard Captain Nair was so important. The value of that bottle of recovery medicine was so immeasurable. However, Guard Captain Nair had no choice but to reject the other party’s proposal, to reject Joelson’s request.

Yet this reason was so important and could not be rejected.

Captain Nair kneeled on the ground, incomparably suffering.

Captain Nair really could not accept Joelson’s request and could not agree to Joelson’s proposal.

“Sir Joelson, I really want to agree to your proposal but…”

Captain Nair said with a pained expression on his face.

“But, I really can’t accept your proposal. I can’t accept your request!”
