Chapter 549: I Choose To Die Alone!

The stadium grew loud soon, with the various discussions of the clan leaders, who discussed the last test and their geniuses’ choice of sects.

To them, the last test was no doubt to be passed by their various geniuses...

But amidst the discussion sat Zeras, who reclined his back on the seat, his eyes closed, yet they were wide open in his mind, as Zeras thought about the second test that he just had...

The test that had shown him his death, and the question that the other Zeras had asked him...

————

“How pathetic is the fact that only two people care about revenge after your death...”

————

‘I truly am a lonely warrior, and it seems I can’t face everything alone...’ Zeras thought to himself, as he clenched his hands tightly together.

[It is truly a subject that I have wished to discuss with you, but I was waiting for the perfect timing. Perhaps after you were taught a good lesson on it. Then you might see the significance of it. But since you have been faced with it now, then perhaps I should tell you...] The system said into his head...

“And what is that?”

[You won’t make it to the top alone!] It said as Zeras furrowed his eyebrows...

[It might seem strange since you have been doing just fine all this while. But now, I’m sure the high races have felt your existence more clearly compared to when you were in the lower realms, and now, they may finally send their army to you.

You’re no doubt strong, Zeras. Your full strength even right now is something that is known.

But against a slumbering army of millennia ago?

[An army is a good thing, they would be a good help. But I am a living catastrophe. My armies would die in large numbers before they reign over the obstacles.

I can’t afford to lose people dear to my heart, on the promise that their death would not be in vain.

I would rather die alone, than die with an army of the people I love...’

[But...]

‘I won’t build an army. I have not the power to protect them from my catastrophe.

Being an anomaly is a blessing of mine, but is also my curse. So, I’ll wade through my catastrophe alone, and I know well, I would never fall!!!’ Zeras said with deeply ingrained confidence.

How many times had he been almost wiped out of existence, but every second he had also found a way to stand back up.

‘I don’t need any more people to die for me. I only need myself and also you. You have been with me since the beginning of everything. Only you can die with me...”

‘ Zeras determined with a serious expression.

‘These two people who died with me in my vision are none other than Princess Schyelleria and Fluffy.

I must have probably continued my relationship with them, and in the end, they both died to my catastrophe. I still have time to correct that...” Zeras determined.

‘And how do you plan to resolve that?’ The system asked as Zeras opened his eyes...

“By letting them go. They wouldn’t have died if they had nothing to do with me...”

Zeras determined as the system remained quite and offered nothing more in return...

[I was just like you once Zeras. My first lifetime...]
