Tricked 159: The Remedy of the Human World
He Qingfu was proud to be human. Because of this pride, she disdained using despicable means. Even if humanity’s power was insufficient, what she wanted to do was seek cooperation, striving to offer terms the other party could not refuse—a fair exchange of interests, not coercion or exploitation. Because of this character, that one step… Continue reading Tricked 159: The Remedy of the Human World
