Chapter 1051: Time Lord

1051 Chapter 1051: Time Lord

In a faraway land, a middle-aged man walked with two youngsters through the heart of a vast desert.

All three beings had lizard-like tails coming from their backs, covered with sharp spikes.

If one were to ignore the tails, the two youngsters would appear no different from ordinary humans, except for their double pupils in each eye.

The middle-aged man, however, looked nothing like a human. He had a human head, but the rest of his body was mechanical, made from an unknown metal.

It was as if a human had donned robotic armor. For this man, it was his entire existence.

"Soul!" one of the youngsters exclaimed.

"What do you think?" the middle-aged man asked, turning to the other youngster, waiting for his response.

"If it's just the soul without the memories, then will that still be the same person? Aren't the memories we experience what make us who we are? I think it's the memories," the other youngster replied.

"Without the same soul, isn't that an entirely different person then?" the first youngster argued back. "Master, I am right, aren't I?"

"You're both wrong," the middle aged man smiled. "It's neither the soul that makes a person, nor their memories."

"If it was the soul then people wouldn't be entirely different beings in their reincarnation. And if it was just the memories, doesn't that mean the existence of a person is futile?" he further asked, enjoying the confused expression on the face of the youngsters.

"Then what makes a person?" the two youngsters asked at the same time.

The middle aged man smiled in response. "The answer is nothing... The entire existence of a person is nothing but a culmination of circumstances. A person can change from one hour to the other. Can you say that I'm the same person I was before?"

"A coincidence?" the middle aged man wondered, looking at the young man who didn't have any extraordinary traits.

This entire world belonged to the time lord. Only for the celebration, it was opened. Moreover, only those who had the invitation could find this world to attend the celebration.

How could a random man end up here? There was no such thing as a coincidence like that, especially since the entire world was surrounded by a protective layer.

While the middle aged man was looking at the person in the distance, the young man glanced back in his direction.

Karyk's lifeless eyes scared the middle aged man who subconsciously took a step back, feeling as if he was shoved in a deep hell.

It took the middle aged man a brief moment to come out of his daze, noticing that the young man had already stopped paying attention to him.

'I was right. Anyone who can be invited to this place isn't a simple person. What a horrifying gaze... Just how many lives has that person taken?'

"Master, are you alright?"

"Ah, I am fine. Just remember what I said. Don't offend any other person here, especially that person. Also, stop pointing at him!"

The middle aged man only started moving when Karyk disappeared from his view, sighing in relief.

"We die every second, huh. What a pathetic answer..." Karyk dragged his body towards the place where he saw many other people moving.

Along the way, he had been hearing what the others were talking about, which gave him a context about this place.

It wasn't just a world of any Civilization, but a world that belonged to just one person. That's why, no one came to investigate even when he fell.

As for the person, his identity was also more interesting than Karyk had expected. It was a person known as the Time Lord.
