195 A Lone World 4

"Big Brother…"

It was a brief moment, but Karlton found some possibility in there. Jaehwan was someone who could see Big Brother too. Surha once said that Big Brother disappeared in Pierre's unique world.

The rumor spread too quickly so no one asked Jaehwan about it. They either forgot about it, or they were just afraid. If Jaehwan couldn't see Big Brother either, then the amount of despair was too big to handle. They just waited for Jaehwan to mention it himself.

'That smile…'

It was natural for Karlton to wish for something as he looked at Jaehwan smiling while looking up into the sky.

"Ugh, this is annoying."

"Huh?"

"The tail is too long."

Karlton looked up to the sky. There, the shadow of a giant s.h.i.+p appeared from the back with the roar of an old man's voice.

-Jaehwan, you fool! Don't leave me behind!

Karlton smiled, "I guess you will never be left alone, Master."

"We sent Mirel and three Lords with 200 3rd step Awakeners. They don't stand a chance."

"…Pierre isn't easy to deal with."

"I know, but I don't think he's stronger than you."

In the outer castle of the Highseeker-

Kas.h.i.+m finished his briefing as they both looked far out at the scenery from the terrace.

"Maybe in a direct head-on fight, but he trained with me. Don't let our forces underestimate him."

"Understood."

Kas.h.i.+m nodded as he was surprised by Budda's concern. Budda defeated two of the 8 G.o.ds of . It was a power that can he could be prideful about, but he didn't overestimate his power.

"How's Myad?"

"He looks tired ever since the Day of the Revolution."

"Yeah. It was that big of a deal."

Budda cackled. He also remembered what Myad showed.

'I mean, he did put up a great show.'

n.o.body would ever see such sight again — the fall of a star. Budda remembered his excitement as he saw the sight. His excitement was different from the emotions that other beings had felt. Budda was the one who was mostly responsible for what happened that day. Budda was the one who played the biggest part in making the Day of the Revolution become a reality.

'If it wasn't for those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds…'

He gritted his teeth as he remembered Ignis the G.o.d of Flame and Droyan the G.o.d of Dragons. As he fought them, Budda died 1412 times and reincarnated 1412 times. He had died 1617 times throughout his thousands of years of life, but he had died close to that amount in just one day.

And the Vicegerent of Ignis was so powerful that Budda almost lost his energy.

'If this time pa.s.ses, the new world will come.'

And then it would be the end of their journey. The world power of the G.o.ds were taken and their grand plan -A lone world- only had one final step left.

"Captain, can I ask…"

"What?"

"Do you have the same thoughts as Master?"

Budda turned cold. He became suspicious if the Master had spoken to Kas.h.i.+m about their grand plan, but before his suspicion could take form, Kas.h.i.+m continued, "About… that, he will be coming."

"Oh, that."

Budda smiled viciously.

"He will."

It had been a while since he last heard about the man from Myad. It was surprising to know there was another being who could see Big Brother.

"If Myad said he'll come, then he'll come. That's why we kept him alive."

Budda glanced at Karavan who was laying on the floor of the terrace. He had now become a Lost One with most of his spirit having been destroyed. They tried to accept him as a member because his spirit had great potential, but he refused strongly.

'Poor guy.'

A report then came in from the watchtower. There were busy movements from all sides and members were swept away by a world power. Budda smiled.

The only one who knew about the truth of this world had finally appeared at .

Myad mumbled silently as he looked out the window, "You are here, Jaehwan."
