Chapter 1308 The New Jared

Chapter 1308 The New Jared

'Is that... Jared?'

Legris was silent—no, not just him.

Everything was quiet, in an absolute lull, as the being that emerged from multicolored light manifested himself in glory.

The one cloaked in indescribable darkness felt perplexed as he stared at the newcomer.

He had long, blond hair. Based on his appearance, he looked to be in his mid-twenties, and his regal appearance caused him to appear majestic.

His pure eyes had a charm to it that made it impossible to look away, almost as if hidden within was a depth that couldn't be fathomed.

Legris did not understand this person.

He couldn't.

"Are you... Jared Leonard?" He asked, his brows raised in both suspicion and caution.

Something about the lad's appearance made him uncomfortable.

Even after the question, the man in front of him did not respond.

It seemed like his eyes were staring at something else—

something far more distant.

"You've changed a lot. What have you become?" Legris something far more distant.

"You've changed a lot. What have you become?" Legris spoke once again, hoping to get a response this time.

Once again, the man refused to speak.

"I don't like being ignored. But if it's going to be like this, then..." Legris shifted his attention to the sphere that hovered above his palm.

It had more than enough 'Nothingness' to finish everyone off.

"... Enjoy."

He thrust the swirling orb towards the regal man, a wide grin on his crooked face.

~WHOOOOOOOSSSSHHHHH!!!~

The darkness approached him at a fast rate, expanding at an astronomical rate.

Like a balloon, it seemed to cover more ground... all within a tiny fraction of a single moment.

This Seed Of The End had enough properties to consume everything in this Realm, and it wasn't even a contention.

Legris comfortably watched as his power would destroy everything and cause the last of his opponents to cease existing.

However, it didn't end up as easy as he thought.

'Huh? It stopped?'

The Seed Of The End was suspended, as if stuck in one frame of time, unable to jump to the next.

He could only imagine the kind of properties he had to be made of to allow for such processing power.

"You killed Z'ark and Gerard. Stefan and Ciel are also gone, it seems..."

If Legris was doubting his words, this person had just confirmed he spoke the truth.

He said everything as it happened.

"You're Jared, aren't you? You seem different, but..."

A brief moment of silence enveloped the two of them, and no one said anything for a moment.

The unconscious ones made no sound, and the blank reality was hollow.

Nothing and no one moved, talkless of spoke.

Until...

"Yes. I am Jared." The blond one responded.

He still had a serious expression on his face, not borne from caution or worry, but of something deeper.

"You've caused a lot of pain and suffering, Legris. My friends and allies did their best to stop you, but... apparently it wasn't enough."

"And? What about it?"

Legris gave a mocking grin as he stared at Jared.

"What else is new?"

This was his nature, after all. Ever since he was exposed as an antagonist—no, even far before that—he had committed horrors that transcended human malice.

Nothing much had changed.

"You can't go back to change it. You can't alter anything. So I ask you, Jared..." Wagging his tongue, Legris taunted in absolute confidence.

"... What are you going to do about it?"

Upon hearing his question, Jared narrowed his gaze and creased his brows slightly.

Silent tension danced around him as he seemed to be in contemplation of the question he was asked.

However, his silence wasn't permanent.

After a few seconds, he opened his lips to respond.

"I suppose you're about to find out."

That was the only answer he could give.

After spending an eternity preparing for this moment, Jared had no intention of losing.

'Everything ends now.'
