Global Game: Ten Billion Spirit Energy Coins From The Start

Chapter 680: 677, Su Yu’s Persuasion_1
 

Sky Dragon’s mother emphasized the word “14 years old”, the implication of her statement was clear without saying it out loud.

Sky Dragon’s father also looked serious: “Su Yu, I know you are the backbone of our Blue Star, the hope of us defeating the Skru people.

But as far as my daughter going to Skru Star is concerned, I absolutely disagree! She is too young. I think you should understand our feelings; we don’t want her to take this risk.”

If it was some time ago, Sky Dragon’s parents would definitely treat Su Yu with the utmost respect seeing how influential he is.

But today, for their daughter, they had to be very firm.

Su Yu glanced at Sky Dragon.

Sky Dragon was staring at him with her big eyes, as if saying, “Since you’re here, help me out!”

Su Yu showed a helpless expression.

At this point, all he could do was try to persuade Sky Dragon’s parents.

“Well… Uncle and aunt, let’s sit down and talk. Standing won’t solve anything.”

Su Yu courteously pulled out a chair by the coffee table, gesturing for the couple to sit down.

At the same time, he sent a look to Sky Dragon that meant, “How about I use [Mind Control] to control them, so they won’t oppose your trip to Skru Star?”

Sky Dragon immediately returned a disapproving look.

About whether they should sit down for a talk or not, Sky Dragon’s parents exchanged glances.

For Su Yu, who is an influential figure, they decided to give him face by stiffly taking a seat.

However, by their demeanor, it was clear that they had no intention of backing down.

After the elderly couple – although using ‘elderly’ is inappropriate as Sky Dragon’s parents are not even 40 – took their seats, Su Yu took the highest grade Longjing tea from his necklace, steeped the leaves in boiling water and filled three cups.

Regardless of whether the couple wanted to drink, after the tea was steeped, Su Yu picked up the cup and gently took a small sip.

Then he put down his cup, looked at Sky Dragon’s parents with stern expressions and said earnestly,

“I fully understand your feelings. At first, when I learned that Sky Dragon was going to Skru Star, I was against it, too.

My objections coincide with yours for sure, it’s of course her age. We don’t think a 14-year-old girl should go to such a dangerous place, right?”

Hearing Su Yu’s words, Sky Dragon’s parents’ expressions softened slightly.

However, they knew that Su Yu hadn’t finished speaking, so they weren’t in a hurry to express their thoughts, but watched him calmly.

Su Yu finished the tea in his cup.

Frankly, he was really embarrassed.

But he had to say what needed to be said.

He put down his tea cup and said in a serious tone: “However, I still agree with Sky Dragon going to Skru Star.”

Seeing Sky Dragon’s mother raise her eyebrows as if ready to scold, Su Yu quickly said, “Auntie, wait until I finished! Can you comment after I finish speaking?”

Sky Dragon’s mother shifted her gaze and finally grunted without a word.

Sky Dragon’s father acted rather well-mannered, drinking the tea Su Yu poured to calm himself, waiting to see if Su Yu could convince him.

…

Su Yu’s long-windedness earlier was purely to buy time, he needed to figure out how to convince Sky Dragon’s parents.

But within a flash of thought, he had figured out what to say.

Crossing his fingers and placing them on his thighs, Su Yu said earnestly, “I agreed with Sky Dragon going to Skru Star mainly for two reasons.

The first reason being is the concept of ‘with great power, comes great responsibility’.

With great power comes a greater responsibility. Especially when Sky Dragon’s powers are built on the sacrifices of ordinary people, she should repay them with her actions. That’s the only way to not disappoint people’s expectations.”

“But…” Sky Dragon’s mother couldn’t help but interrupt, “Can’t she ‘take up her responsibilities’ in other ways? Going to Skru Star is too dangerous! If she dies there, won’t that be a huge loss for our Blue Star?”

“Mom!” Sky Dragon protested from the side.

For the past two weeks, she had been actively preparing the equipment and items needed to go to Skru Star, studying the Skru people’s language and culture.

With such thorough preparations and having already advanced to the sixth level, there was no way she would die easily, would she?

But Sky Dragon’s mother didn’t listen to her daughter at all and was instead staring intently at Su Yu.

Su Yu gave the couple a gentle smile and continued,

“Regarding the topic of ‘taking up her responsibilities’, if both of you have been following recent news, you would definitely know that the war on Blue Star has come to an end. We won’t be attacking the Skru people for the next three to four months.

Which means, there’s no room for Blue Star’s sixth-level or higher disciples to show their prowess anymore.”

“But!”

“Please wait for me to finish,” Su Yu paused them with a hand gesture,

“I know the talk about responsibility can’t convince you. If it could, Sky Dragon would’ve already succeeded in convincing you.

Now, let me talk about the second reason. I’ll explain from your perspective as to why I’m supporting her going to Skru Star.”

Sky Dragon’s parents took deep breaths. They restrained their emotions that were nearly out of control, their foreheads’ veins throbbing.

Meanwhile, Su Yu seriously said, “If, as you wish, Sky Dragon cancels her trip to Skru Star, do you think that’s necessarily a good thing for her? Would that harm her future?”

On hearing this, Sky Dragon’s parents were stunned. They never considered their daughter’s future.

Not only them, Sky Dragon, who was sitting by the side, was also stunned. She hadn’t thought about this at all.

Su Yu slowly asked, “Uncle and aunt, by the time of the final battle, Sky Dragon will still be only 14 years old, right?”

“Of… course.”

“Even at 14 years old, she will definitely have to go to the battlefield, right?”

Sky Dragon’s father nodded heavily, “You’re… right.”

At this point, he faintly understood what Su Yu meant.

Su Yu continued, “Sky Dragon will inevitably go to the battlefield in future, the battlefield of the decisive battle!

In such a battlefield, where ‘sixth levels are everywhere and seventh levels are common’, only by becoming powerful can one increase their chances of survival. Besides those at the Divine Rank, no one can be sure they will survive.

If Sky Dragon doesn’t go to Skru Star, she will miss this opportunity to enhance her combat power.

In the future, Blue Star disciples still have five chances to go to Skru Star. If she misses all of them, she will let other players get ahead.

In that case, the Blue Star government will definitely give more resources to the players who perform exceptionally on Skru Star.

Since Sky Dragon is ‘too young’ to demonstrate her value, the Blue Star government will definitely allocate the resources planned for her to others.

By the time of the final battle, I guarantee that Sky Dragon will still only be at the sixth level.

Would you like to see your daughter, who is at the peak of the seventh level or even at the eighth level, be invincible on the battlefield? Or do you want to see her clinging to her small sixth level body, constantly worrying about being hit by the remnants of war and dying?

You should carefully consider Sky Dragon’s future!”
