Chapter 429 Half Dead

'.....'

'...'

'....Sigh~ That was a powerful Soul attack, if I hadn't placed a great deal of importance on raising my Soul Strength it might have been destroyed by mere contact with that thing!'

'...In the end, I couldn't avenge Mila, nor save Richard... Emperor of the Planet Jura? Heaven's Chosen? It turned out that I was just a petty character in the end, I led myself to death in a place that had nothing to do with me..'

'...I wonder if the owner of that soul died too, I bet that would greatly ease the burden on my guys, they might be able to return to Jura now if they built the space portal...'

'But... Heh~ I'm the only link that unites them, Alexander and Old Gu, Victora and Elizabeth, and the Burton family saints won't listen to each other, and Caesar doesn't have enough strength to unite them fully under his command yet, after my death, the army will undoubtedly disintegrate... If my fall causes the Golden Battalion to disintegrate and led them to their death, only then will I feel that I died in vain...'

'hmm? ....I'm dead, why can I think?'

*Slowly opens his eyes...*

'Tsk tsk~ even the dim candlelight can hurt me now? Looks like my soul got severely injured in that Soul battle and--'

'...I can see candlelight. I am alive?!'

*bzzzzzz*

Robin tried to raise his head gradually with half-closed eyes and blurred vision, and with ears that could hear nothing but a lot of buzzing as if thousands of bees were flying in circles around his head.

Even after about two seconds of looking around, he could only see that he was in a closed space, and there were a few golden objects scattered around him…

"Ah! His Excellency has woken up!!"

"Thank the heavens!! I will go tell General Caesar."

"I'm going to check his pulse!!"

When the individuals in the room noticed Robin's movement, it looked as if scorpions had stung them, they went from sitting dejectedly to running around in a panic.

Although Robin did not hear anything from them clearly, the feelings of fear and happiness were evident in their voices, so he was reassured and rested his head in its place again with a light smile

'It seems that I'm still alive somehow, and in a save zone at that... I actually managed to keep my life after facing that horrifying being. I always thought of the soul power as a way to help me formulate various techniques faster, who would have thought that it would save my life today...'

Then he closed his eyes again, and with it the rest of his senses...

"This feeling... What does His Excellency do?" One of the Life Forces soldiers furrowed his eyebrows after Robin rested his head again

The person who was feeling Robin's pulse also furrowed his brows for a few seconds before letting out a relieved sigh, "Don't worry, he is using the Soul Replenishing Technique."

"Soul Replenishing Technique?" The rest in the tent raised their eyebrows slightly, but they soon understood…

During those days, they tried more than once to treat him with the various laws of the Life Path, but to no avail... After many tries, they affirmed that the damage Robin suffered was not physical.

Everyone here wasn't trying to heal Robin, they knew they can't, their main job is to take turns checking Robin's condition every few minutes and providing him with easy-to-swallow food and enough drink to keep his body strong and healthy...

Even though Robin is at level 30, he can stay for about ten days without food, and this period would be longer if he was unconscious, but the point was not to preserve his life, but rather to keep him strong all the time, as this would increase his chances of survival.

"The Soul Replenishing Technique... This is one of the basic techniques of the Soul Path that His Excellency personally devised when he was still living in the afflicted Jura city, and it is one of the most basic techniques that were distributed to all of us before we came here. We were told that it is very important to revitalize and renew the soul. I remember it well because I had wondered what we might use it during the conquest of another planet... Considering now that His Excellency uses it to treat himself, only now did I know its value..." Only now did they become certain that the damage that Robin had inflicted and made him unconscious during this time had something to do with the soul

"I can't believe that His Excellency distributed this invaluable technique to us for free..."

"He is really a great man.. a great man...." One of the Life Forces girls said while looking at Robin with eyes all looking up and in awe.

"FATHER! ...I heard that my father woke up? How is he?!" At this moment the tent curtain opened and Caesar came in shouting, when he saw that Robin was still lying in his place he grabbed the shield of the nearest sage of the Life Forces and shouted at his face, "What is going on here? Is this? Some kind of prank? Do you think fighting those damn creatures is so easy now that they are back and it's time for your little jokes? Maybe I should throw you guys in the front row, I would like to hear you laugh then!"

"We dare not!" That sage who was unfortunate enough to get into Caesar's hands shouted in panic, "His Excellency did indeed wake up and raised his head, but he activated the Soul Replenishing Technique and fell back to sleep again, it seems that there are injures in his soul that prevented him from moving."

When Caesar heard this, he raised his eyebrows and let go of the sage's armor, took a few steps towards Robin, then furrowed his eyebrows again…

pαпdα Йᴏνê|,сòМ Robin only distributed two techniques related to the soul, the first is the Soul Strengthening Technique and the second is the Soul Replenishing Technique.

Other than the Soul Replenishing Technique, they had no way to treat anything related to the soul, and this technique a person could only use on himself.

'No, Even if they could help him using the  Soul Replenishing Technique, would it really help? This technique was made to restore clarity of mind and speed up the process of healing the soul after its exhaustion, can it do anything to treat Robin from his injuries? Although I do not know what really happened, Father's cry and fall that day, and then his fainting for a few days says that he certainly did not receive any minor damage.' Caesar thought as he kept examining Robin

But this is the current situation~ None of them can do anything but stand on the side idly by and watch as Robin tries to do something to heal himself...

Robin's achievements in the soul path can be said to be revolutionary in relation to their previous knowledge, well, there was no previous knowledge of the planet Jura in the first place, they just knew it exists.

But his colossal achievements now seemed to be completely insufficient...

After a few seconds, Caesar turned and moved toward the exit saying, "Keep up your good work."

The Life Force Saints and Sages followed him until he came out and closed the curtain of the tent behind him, only then let out a long exhale…

The adopted son of the Emperor of the World... Sometimes he acts spontaneously and gets close to his followers, which makes him popular among the members of the army, and sometimes the pressure that puts as the one and only *Sage of Death* exceeds even Robin's somehow

With a few glances among themselves, the Sages of the Life Force decided to summon Peon next time instead of Caesar...

------------------

"Caesar, what is the news? How is His Excellency?"

The moment Caesar came out of the cloud there were a few people waiting, they were Victoria and Elizabeth and some other sages at the top of the sage realm, even Alexander also came leaning on crutches with his body wrapped in bandages like a mummy

All of them furrowed their eyebrows and expressed fear as they waited for Caesar's reply, after all, his absence did not last long inside and he went out alone without Robin...

Caesar let out a long sigh and announced as he clenched his hands tightly, "Father did indeed wake up but he shut down his senses and activated the Soul Replenishing Technique, I checked it myself."

"Hooo~"

As if a stone had finally been lifted from their chests, they all let out a long exhale and their expressions relaxed.

Robin's fall that day shook their world, only now their legs found solid ground to stand on again.

But soon their features changed again.
