Chapter 469 It wouldn't be fun, then
Azazeal — this is the name that everyone knew him by. He didn't remember from whom or when he received that name because it's been so long.
However, for the first time in a long while, Azazeal was taken aback when a very old yet familiar name slipped out from his mouth almost instinctively. His purple eyes flickered with surprise as he gazed at the silver-haired human across from him.
'Is it because I have seen you a lot in the future that has yet to come?'
On the other hand, Kyle's stance visibly relaxed as he gazed at the man dressed in white from head to toe. He mumbled under his breath with furrowed brows.
"Aze?"
He had no clue why the latter had suddenly chosen to reveal his name. But he snapped out of his thoughts when he saw Aze stepping towards him.
Azazeal parted his lips and stretched out his left hand towards Kyle.
Immediately, the deep purple color of his eyes began to dim, replaced by a more common shade of purple.
"Now that I have given my name, shouldn't you do the same?"
Kyle's eyes traveled towards the outstretched hand reaching out to him. He recognized the gesture; the man opposite him wanted to get acquainted. But he couldn't shake the sense of unease stemming from his bloodline.
"Aze, you say? How can I be sure it's your actual name? Besides, you're the one who disclosed your name to me. I'm not compelled to reveal mine."
He saw the man blink, but there was still no emotion in those purple eyes. Kyle quietly clicked his tongue and without another word began striding towards the mountain. He cast a final glance at the mountaintop and, without any more hesitation, started to climb.
Azazeal glanced at his outstretched hand, the purple color in his eyes gathered into two slits, revealing the hidden obsidian color beneath. He tilted his head to look at the silver-haired human who had once again altered the future.
"This guy... he's pushing it too much this time! I swear I'm going to punch him the next time I see his face!"
He leaped upward and continued his journey, this time ignoring the man just as the latter had ignored him. However, as he crossed one-third of the mountain, his head collided with Aze's back, who had halted to gaze at the area in front of him.
Kyle barely restrained himself from grabbing the man and throwing him off the mountain. He reminded himself repeatedly that he was unaware of Aze's strength and it wouldn't be wise to engage with someone who hadn't initiated an attack. Yet, for some reason, his patience was wearing thin in the man's presence.
He reached out to touch Aze's shoulder to push.. Ahem, gently move him aside, but before his hand could make contact, the man swiftly stepped out of his path.
Kyle blinked and glanced at the man suspiciously. Aze had stopped moving for some reason, even though the path ahead was clearer than before.
"Don't you want to climb the mountain? Why did you stop?"
Once again, he received no answer as the purple eyes peered at him as if waiting for him to move forward.
Kyle seriously had enough. He rolled his sleeves to have a one-
on-one with the man. However, as he took a step forward, the ground beneath his feet caved in, and he dropped into a narrow gap.
Immediately, a groan escaped his lips as he grabbed his back and stared at the dust and debris that enveloped his vision. And in that moment, a familiar voice echoed outside the gap.
"Oh, I thought you would avoid it?"
Kyle let out a laugh, a laugh that was nothing but cold as he locked his eyes with Aze, who stared at him from outside the gap. He raised his fist and with a single jump left the gap only to find that Aze had already jumped toward another place.
"Just you wait, you bastard!"
