Chapter 3178 Always

Chapter 3178 Always

Leonel stood in silence for a while, digesting everything he read. It was a long while before he looked up to meet Old Bow's eyes once again.

Honestly, he was a bit confused. What about this was an opportunity?

Was the opportunity just knowing that the world was going to end? He already knew that.

Was the opportunity to know why the world was ending? Who cared about that?

Old Bow chuckled as though she could see through Leonel's thoughts.

The opportunity was actually to feel Time Force and learn how to incorporate it into your Weapon Force. Those that could pull themselves out from the illusion would always come back with this understanding, and if they could refine it well enough before the end of the battlefield, then they could leave here with their knowledge intact.

Otherwise, the Regulator of the Idol Battlefield would be able to erase their memories, much like they had done with everyone that came before them, and the end result would just continue to be more of the same.

Old Bow didn't explain because she knew that Leonel would be able to figure this out on his own. And Leonel's next question proved that.

"Then why is the Regulator obsessed with erasing the memories of those that enter here? What am I missing?"

It didn't make sense to Leonel even after some thought. The Regulator was birthed through the efforts of the Ancient Humans, fine. But the Regulator obviously didn't listen to these Ancient Humans, or else there would be a very clear path to succeeding here.

Someone like Leonel, who had two such powerful Weapon Forces, should be treated like a VIP if the Regulator was listening to the Ancient Humans.

Not only was Leonel a true Human, but he had exactly the potential in both Spear and Bow Force to succeed where they had failed in the past. He should be exactly the sort of candidate that they should be propping up.

Leonel shook his head and sighed.

Indeed. The world did feel like one big practical joke. It really made a man wonder... why?

However, after his sigh, his lip curled a bit.

Old Bow, who was watching his expression like a hawk, couldn't help but be taken aback. The sigh was pretty common, albeit much more muted of a response than she had received from everyone else.

She assumed that this was because unlike the others, Leonel and the talents that had entered the Idol Battlefield this time around were dancing on the edge of the end of Existence. Compared to the other talents who still felt like the end of the world was an impossible distance away, this was a very different situation to be sure.

It was only natural, then, that Leonel would take it more in stride.

But that smile... it was completely out of place.

As for Leonel, he wasn't thinking about any of the matters that weighed Old Bow down. He was smiling because he felt that he had made the right choice to allow his wife to experience happiness.

If the world's end was inevitable, what was the point of holding out hope, waiting for everything to settle down before they could finally chase after their happiness?

In this case, they might as well do their best to grasp what strands of jovial memories they could before they faced off against the inevitable.

Who knew? Maybe this obsession with improvement, of delaying, of finding a solution...

Had always been the problem.
