Chapter 156: Observer Ashe

Chapter 156: Observer Ashe

What is Touch?

Ashe was perplexed. These sorcerers always managed to come up with new terms he had never heard before.

He actually succeeded, Heath actually succeeded! How is this possible, how can this be possible! Sylin roared quietly, suddenly turning into a desktop cleaning master, striking the desk hard and swiping the Screen of Knowledge onto the floor, shattering it into pieces.

Ashe swallowed: Calm down, why dont you explain to me whats going on? Maybe I can offer all sorts of support apart from substantial assistanceeh!

The tree trunk suddenly compressed inward. Ashe felt a heavy pressure coming from all directions, almost suffocating him. Even breathing became extremely difficult, as if he was about to turn into an Ashe pancake!

I cant breathe!

Arent you going to fight back? Sylin said coldly, his left hand pointing at Ashe, making a grip gesture: Your body is still so fragile, I might accidentally crush you. Ill count to three. Three, two, one

Is this the end for me?

If only I had killed him earlier If only I hadnt come to find Sylin If only

Facing death, Ashe surprisingly found that he was not as strong as he thought. His heart was filled with regret. He thought he didnt care much about life, but it seemed that was not the case.

Or perhaps, what he cared about was not life

Ashe instinctively closed his eyes and clenched his teeth, waiting for the severe pain before death.

However, when the countdown ended, the tree trunk did not squeeze Ashe into a pulp, but instead loosened somewhat, allowing Ashe to enjoy the freedom of breathing again.

He opened his eyes and saw Sylin stumbling and falling against the desk. Sylin had tears running down his face, but he was laughing: You are indeed not Heath, you really arent Hahaha! He succeeded? He actually succeeded? How could he succeed?

Ashe silently watched Sylin crying and laughing, then after a long while, he finally asked, What were you testing just now?

Sylin, completely disregarding courtesy, sat on the carpet next to the desk. After a while, he replied, The real Heath, he possesses the Key. He doesnt need arcane energy or even language. As long as Heath activates the Key, he can control any followerincluding me.

He showed a deep-seated fear on his face: That is a contamination more terrifying than death, its completely stripping away ones self-control! I tried to commit suicide before, but death is not an excuse for disobedience. The moment before I attempted suicide, I lost control of my body until I completed the work he assigned. I then regained the right to use my own body From then on, I could not resist any of his orders and could only faithfully enforce his will.

From the moment you placed the sword heart on my neck, I knew you were not Heath. But I dared not believe, dared not take risksperhaps Heath was just pretending, perhaps you were a personality split from Heath, or perhaps Sylins voice was trembling, I simply didnt have the courage to believe that Heath would disappear.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

I was afraid you were just another one of his tricks.

Ashe looked at Sylins right hand: You mentioned Stunning Eyes just now

You didnt inherit Heaths memories? Sylin raised his right hand, the hole in the center of his palm was so round, like a missing puzzle piece, the moonlight passing through without hindrance.

The one who wants to kill me is Heath?

Even though Ashe tried to judge if Sylin was lying, his heart still beat uncontrollably.

Infinite malice and resentment flooded his thoughts like a deep sea. A bone-chilling cold seeped into his body, and he seemed to hear the laughter of countless people.

From the beginning, he was a clearly arranged pawn.

He couldnt even tell who the real mastermind was. He was like a child who saw his backpack being tossed around by bullies, not knowing who to hit, almost about to cry out of frustration.

But strangely, Ashe didnt ignite the fire of anger to dispel the chill in his heart.

He calmly accepted the truth that he had been fooled. He could even dispassionately observe his own thoughts tumbling and boiling, as if looking at someone elses Sorcerer Handbook, enjoying a dramatic plot of storms.

When you can observe pain, you are freed from pain.

When you can observe the self, you are freed from fate.

Anger, resentment, and regret cant solve any problems. Only absolute calm, precise judgment, and mechanical execution can penetrate all secrets, understand the truths of the world, and implement your own will.

Dont let the hormones secreted by your body affect your thinking. Dont let boring worldly concepts restrict your imagination. Dont let an unknown future destroy your calm.

Ashe, you need to watch yourself, you need to transcend reality, you need to think about the correct next step, execute the strategy that maximizes benefits, using all available resources.

Just treat others as tools.

And treat yourself as a tool as well.

Then you can become the unprejudiced Observer Ashe.
