Chapter 321: The Time Draws Near

[Luna POV]

[Nice to meet you, Reverious the dragon. Im Hoshi, the Spirit King of space spirits, and I have a proposition for you.] (Hoshi)

Reverious completely stopped moving at Hoshis words. I could feel the surprise radiating off of him as he lay there in silence.

I get that the anger of learning someone beating you to a position that youve strived for, for thousands of years or more is one thing, but Im kind of offended that hes more surprised by Hoshi showing up than the person that is supposed to be ascending to godhood soon.

{Do you really care about it that much?}

No, but still, all he did was try to kill me, but he freezes up like this at Hoshi just introducing herself. Unless of course hes just being petty, in which case I might need to do something to fix that.

Why do I feel a sudden chill? (Reverious)

Big sis, stop making it colder. (Soleil)

Fine. (Luna)

Oi brat! You dare show disrespect in front of a spirit king!? (Reverious)

[It matters little to me, she is the Goddess Im going to end up serving, after all. And besides, this isnt really disrespect. Ive show her more disrespect than she has to be honest.] (Hoshi)

Hoshi, lets get back to business. (Luna)

[Yes. Reverious the dragon, you show promise and the aptitude, so I offer you a boon. Will you become a space demispirit and serve under me?] (Hoshi)

Before I answer, may I ask some things? (Reverious)

[You may.] (Hoshi)

First, was my entire path pointless? (Reverious)

[To be very blunt, yes. No matter how long you lived and how hard you strived to become a god, you would never achieve it unless an even higherno, you would never become a god, at most you could strive for is a demispirit position like the one Im offering you, or the position of Apostle, but that is already taken as well.] (Hoshi)

I see. Then what was the point of my existence? (Reverious)

[An existential question that has many answers yet none at all. Your existence is what you make of it, and as long as you consider it so, it is never wasted. Though if its validation you seek, then Im glad to give it. You may not be able to ascend to godhood or Apostleship, but becoming a demispirit is a wonderful thing. While it has happened many times, I can count on one hand the amount of times its happened, and this is the first time someone has the chance to become a demispirit of a primordial aspect of the world.] (Hoshi)

Hmm. Then what is it that I need to do? I may still hold some feelings of animosity for the little fox over there, but I have come to respect her strength, so I dont mind serving under her as a demispirit. (Reverious)

Well, that took less convincing than I thought it would. (Skadi)RêAd lateSt chapters at novelhall.com Only

Indeed. (Ophidia)

Reverious, what do you want us to do with your body? (Luna)

Doesnt matter to me. If this happened after a fight with another dragon, wed leave the corpse there as its last resting place, but I know that other races consider things like dragons scales valuable, so feel free to do with them what you will. Though I would like it if you didnt eat any of it. (Reverious)

Alright. (Luna)

I stored the corpse in my inventory before snapping my fingers and dissolving the domain.

Oh, before I head off to finish up things, feel free to get an apple. As the one in charge of managing the guarding of the tree, I give you permission to take one. (Reverious)

With those last words, he vanished. I then turned to the others that were just standing around and walked over to them.

So, what were we doing before this interruption? (Luna)

We were going to have some tea while we talked about whatever with Chen and the others. Is everything over here finished? (Nian)

Yeah. Though Im going to go get an apple before we head back for the night. (Luna)

Sound fine to me. Lets get back to what we were doing guys. (Nian)

Um, are we really not going- (Lisk)

Lisk, it is times like these that one should just follow the flow and not question things. (Ling)

Once the domain was fully gone, we all headed inside.

Chaos Realm:

I see, so that's her plan. Guess I should set up the safety measures.

Order: Need any help?

I will when the time comes and her ascension starts. I'll tell you what is needed at that time.

Order: Alright.

Atmos: Guess I'll get to work at setting things up as well. Gotta make it a spectacle after all.

Grey: Guess I'll run crisis management. Something like this is surely going to cause waves and I also need to get the maps ready for Luna and I's plans.

Then we all reconvene here once we're done?

Everyone: Yep.
