Chapter 28 - Chapter 28: I'm Just Lost

Silver Wolf: It's like this, and like that.

Silver Wolf: Do you understand?

Zāwù: I understand.

Zāwù: But I still think Big Sis Kafka is a good person...

Silver Wolf: You're a lost cause! What kind of born-to-be-kidnapped-by-bad-women constitution is this!

Zāwù: But, I'm willing to trust Big Sis Silver Wolf, and trust that Miss Himeko is a good person.

Zāwù: And right now, we must seek her help!

Zāwù: Big Sis Silver Wolf, do you remember when you were worried about me stepping onto the Path of Destruction?

Silver Wolf: I remember.

Zāwù: Perhaps that wasn't an illusion. I only realized it later.

Zāwù: It seems that the more Voidrangers I kill, another self, a monster, seems to be nourished inside my body.

Zāwù: "He" craves endless slaughter, craves contempt for and destruction of this world.

Zāwù: It's like... he wants to take back everything he's lost.

Zāwù: He wants to make everyone who has ever hurt "him" regret it.

Zāwù: I don't dare to let "him" out.

Zāwù: I can't turn back...

Zāwù: There is something high above the clouds, Its damaged body seems to flow with golden lava. Behind It, thousands of worlds collapse, the universe becomes ruins...

Zāwù: This is everything I felt when I was trembling before the overwhelming horde of Voidrangers while guarding you as you opened the tunnel door.

Zāwù: But my trembling was from the excitement and thrill that rose from destruction.

Zāwù: Sorry, I lied to you then, Big Sis Silver Wolf.

Zāwù: I was afraid you would see me as a monster.

Zāwù: But even now...

Zāwù: He is still watching me.

The boy spoke the most horrifying words in the calmest tone.

An Aeon... is watching him? And yet he is resisting that Aeon's Path!?

Silver Wolf was speechless.

Zāwù, in turn, comforted her.

Zāwù: It's okay, Big Sis Silver Wolf.

Zāwù: Have a little faith in me.

Zāwù: I'm just... a little lost, that's all.

Zāwù: Trust me, even if I'm walking on thin ice, I will reach the other side of this Path. To prove to those arrogant Aeons, to let Them know—how the son of man rebels against fate.

Zāwù: But first, we must get rid of these endless Voidrangers.

Silver Wolf: ...I understand.

Their long-standing tacit understanding allowed them to cooperate seamlessly without much communication.

Zāwù cast a warm gaze at the boisterous group of Stelle, March 7th, and Dan Heng beside him. Watching them joke and argue brought him a simple happiness and satisfaction.

Silver Wolf took this opportunity to contact Lead Researcher Asta and Miss Himeko at the space station. By the time they reached a consensus, Zāwù was also ready.

He looked deeply at March 7th, making the girl blush slightly.

Could it be, Zāwù... towards me...!

Really!? Although March 7th had always been confident in herself and yearned for a sweet, shoujo-manga-like romance, being fallen for at first sight by an angelic boy of Zāwù's level was a bit too much of a "fantasy time" scenario!

March 7th didn't dare to ask Zāwù in front of him if he liked her. She didn't want to be seen as a "plain-Jane yet overconfident" girl. And Zāwù's next words made her glad she hadn't been that narcissistic.

"Big Sis March 7th, can I trouble you to put an ice shield on me?"

"You mean 'The Power of Cuteness'?"

Zāwù nodded. Although the name March 7th gave her skill was a little... billion... bit strange, it was effective. To explain it in gaming terms, March 7th could not only provide Zāwù with a strong single-target shield to resist damage, but also increase his taunt ability. It was perfect for supporting this operation.

...

Herta Space Station, Main Control Section.

Asta's tone was clearly hesitant. "Miss Himeko, are you really going to trust... Silver Wolf, a Stellaron Hunter!?"

"Don't you think it's strange that she appeared at the space station?"

"The Antimatter Legion arrived, and she was here too."

"It's hard not to think there's some secret connection between them."

"I know all that, of course."

"But Silver Wolf's plan is crazy yet effective. I have no reason not to take the gamble."

"And besides, I also want to verify something."

As Himeko skillfully operated the virtual screen, the surveillance footage of the space station's support section was continuously called up. Soon, Himeko found the target's figure. They appeared on the platform, led by the white-haired boy, with Dan Heng, March 7th, Stelle, and Silver Wolf following closely behind.

At that moment, even the woman's beautiful eyes couldn't help but widen slightly.

What a beautiful boy.

How can there be such a perfect creation in this world?

Especially his light green, jade-like eyes, which reminded one of a famous woman in the universe. Ruan Mei, a member of the Genius Club, an expert in the field of life sciences who had caught the eye of Nous. If someone noticed the separator in her name, she would be quite pleased, because her name was taken from her parents' surnames. Of course, even if you called her Ruan Mei directly, she would accept it naturally.

Himeko suddenly turned to Asta. "Why do I hear that Ruan Mei visited the Herta Space Station some time ago and hasn't left since?"

"Miss Ruan Mei?"

"That's right! How could I forget, she seems to still be on the station!"
