Chapter 412: Caden (1/2)
Ten million years later and our bored gamer sat supreme above emperors and kings alike. It took this long since the challenge was upped to hell mode all of a sudden. Clark conquered not mere galaxies but a large part of the known universe. It was only too natural for our good gamer to pay handsomely with untold time and effort in consequence.
”You're really serious in letting me pay so much in order to possess your true power, partner.” Clark commented.
”...” Same as the last, the clay brick inside his soul never bothered to make a reply at all.
”Ohhh... well... i'm glad that i have 2 other soul fragments out there that enjoy the fullness of life and more. If not, then i would have long gone insane with the monotony of this endless quest.” Our bored gamer sighed deep after these words. He looked at the myriad people down below and his concentration was broken by the screams of agony in the distance. They had been suffering for seven million years already but our vengeful gamer still did not release them from this mortal hell. This was of course none other than Radix and the leaders who ordered the carnage in his initial world.
”I only hope that even when i'm gone, this formation shall still continue to go on for ages without end.” Clark could only shrug at this point. Whenever he would leave a conquered world, he would always leave behind countless edicts for his followers. This would enable peace and order for many many years to come but time was ever fickle. No one could know what will happen tomorrow. Much less millions of years in the future.
”Life and death.”
”Growth and decay.”
”Light and dark.”
”This is the way of this mortal world.” With these last thoughts in mind, Clark could finally let his obsessions go.
”I'm ready, partner.” Clark smiled one last time and then awaited for the familiar sound in his ears.
”DING!”
Power Systems Conquered: 12/50
Our bored gamer then saw nothing but only felt the friendly embrace of nihility.

”Go on, Caden!”
”Give her those flowers!”
”Come on!” Caden's friends cheered for him.
”What the fuck are all you shouting for?!”
”Just keep quiet and see how a master tempter does the job!” Caden retorted and bravely went to meet the girl of his dreams.
”HAHAHA!”
”Then show us how Mister Master Tempter!”
”BWAHAHA!” Fun and gags resounded on his back but Caden was deaf to it all. These were his friends for many years now and all of them only wished for his happiness and nothing more.
”Happy Lover's Day, Luna...” the voice of a meek rat announced its entrance. Caden did not know how he got here as his full attention was caught in the divine mien of his crush, his fantasy.
The Untouchable Princess of Clayton High.
”Thank you, Caden.” a beautiful girl accepted the flowers.
