James paused after all he had learnt, he had no idea what he was supposed to say, but something seemed to have suddenly occurred to him.
"If Chronos doesn't know, if Chaos destroyed everything, does that mean no one, including Nyx and Erebus, knows what happened?" James asked suddenly, knowing the answer but wanting to ask it anyway.
"Exactly. No one heard the Fallen God's conversation with you because their vision was blocked. Next time everyone will know, unless you want to tell them now," Emily said, and it seemed to have strangely sunk into James' mind.
James didn't want to tell Nyx or anyone else about all the things he had learnt, he was distraught that everyone's view of him would change after they found out.
After all, Desmond was feared, maybe Nyx and Erebus would be angry with him, but they wouldn't change their view of James, but it would be hard to say that about the other gods.
He couldn't fully understand what had happened or what would happen in the future, he couldn't even think about it, but he knew one thing, if his ancestor had left him a job and it was for the benefit of humanity and those he cared about, he had to finish it.
"It's quite strange though, aunty. A tower appears in our world for me to enter, but others manage to get in before me, I hope I can meet them." James said suddenly, smiling.
"Ummm...isn't one of them already in the guild you founded?" Emily suddenly asked and James, hearing this, asked "Ariel?" with his eyes wide open, he seemed to have asked this question to himself.
"I mean, your energies are similar, that's what happens when you're from the same world, didn't you know?" While hearing this, Emily said, and James silenced her by saying, "Auntie, it's been half a year since I entered the tower. I guess I will ask this after clearing some floors."
Emily seemed surprised when she heard these words, shook her head left and right a few times and then asked, "You managed to kill a Fallen God in half a year?"
"Not one, but two," James said when he heard this question and saw Emily come up to him and look at him.
"James...Do you know how old our ancestor was the first time he killed a Fallen God?" she asked.
When James sneered as if he didn't know, Emily patted his head and then said, "He was 58 years old. It took you half a year to kill two..."
When James heard these words, he said, "More than twice my age...But I wasn't alone, remember Miracle?", these words seemed to tell how much James's potential was enough.
"Unbelievable, it still is unbelievable," Emily said, she really couldn't understand what was going on, it was one of those stories that had progressed steadily from family stories and had progressed to their generation, what Emily had said, Desmond had killed the first god at the age of 58.
"Didn't you know how old I was?" James suddenly asked and Emily, hearing this, laughed and said "I knew, I just didn't know that you had already killed two of them..." and fell silent.
However, the conversation seemed to have come to an end, the sounds of shouting coming from the corridor were clear to James' ears, and even Emily sat back in her seat at such strange noises.
The voices grew closer and closer and then the door to the room suddenly opened.
"James!" Nemesis suddenly called out, her expression relieved. Ariel was holding Miracle in her arms and trying to keep Miracle from pulling her hair.
"I'm fine Neme, it's just my body's a mess," James suddenly said and Nemesis sat on the edge of the bed and patted James on the cheek.
"That's good to know, can you get up? Should I get you something to eat?" Nemesis asked and James said, "If you know of any way to relieve the pain in my body, please do that, I don't need anything else."
Nemesis thought for a few seconds and then said, "I can ask my mum, we can move freely now, we had to force her not to come here, I can tell she's still trying to come."
James laughed deeply and then said, "If Lady Nyx knows anything, it might be good, I need to keep climbing now."
With that James shifted his gaze in the direction of his aunt and smiled, Nemesis was trying to figure out what was going on when Emily's voice was heard by James:
"You found a good girl."
At those words, James had to hold himself back from laughing, but he eventually let out a loud laugh:
"Puhahaha!"
At this laughter, the people in the room were surprised, James even realised that his eyes were teary from laughing.
"What's wrong?" Nemesis suddenly asked, and hearing this, James said, "Nothing, I was just thinking about what a beautiful family I have, so different from my life before I entered the tower. Nemesis, whom I admire, is my wife, the Chaos-Borns are my family, and Ariel, who is as dear to me as my mother, is now carrying my daughter in her arms. You have no idea how happy I am."
Every single person who heard these words was deeply touched. None of them had expected to hear such sweet words from someone who had killed a Fallen God on his own just a few days ago.
However, the day was coming to an end, James was tired and needed to recover quickly, and when he opened his eyes again he should be ready to climb the tower.
Perhaps the dangers of the floors he would climb in the future would not be so challenging now that he was stronger, perhaps the tower would make the floors more difficult, the opposite of what he thought.
He was not at a level to know the future, after all.
Still, whatever was going to happen was going to happen, and James wanted to be ready for any of it. Searᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
It had been a long time since he had used his Gacha and climbing another floor meant killing more monsters, it was hard not to get excited.
There was only 65 floors to the 75th floor.
