Chapter 62 White Lion Kins Tomb Part 3 (2/2)
”Well... I confess I wanted this sword, but I can't accept your offer!” Theo said without hesitation.
”Oh? Why can't you accept it?” Leonidas didn't expect anyone to turn down such a chance so easily, it surprised him greatly.
Theo took a deep breath and replied, ”That's because I have people waiting for me, I can't let them down and end up dying here!”
”I see, I see, so that's it! Young man, you're really interesting!!” Leonidas couldn't help but be happy, not expecting that such a being would appear in his last moments of life, but at the same time regretted his bad luck on finding friends… he couldn't help but sigh as he remembered the moment he was betrayed by someone who thought he was his best friend.
”How do I get out of this place?” Theo asked, not wanting to keep them waiting too long.
”Wait! You don't have to rush out!” Leonidas said, ”I don't want you to fight me to death, I just want to test you.”

”I understand. But why is that?” Theo didn't understand his actions. He thought this man in front of him had already died as he thought upon receiving such a mission from his system, but he could see that he was alive and kicking. So he didn't know why he was doing all this.
Sadness passed his eyes, but soon returned to normal and he said: ”Actually I'm already dead! Or at least my physical body has, I'm just here to communicate with you because I left a part of my soul in this sword, so even though I'm dead, a part of my soul resides in this sword.”
”Ohh!” Theo didn't expect that to be the case.
”No need to worry, even if you don't take possession of the sword, the rest of my consciousness that resides in that sword will disappear,” said Leonidas.
”I see.” Theo took a deep breath and said, ”Okay, I agree to fight you!”
”Hahaha! That's what I wanted to hear!” Leonidas stood in a fighting stance and asked, ”Do you have any weapons you want to use?”
”Huh. Well, although I have never used it, I have a sword.” Theo drew a silver sword with a black handle interwoven with silver lines.
This was one of the last swords he had ever made, a sword made of a Lightning Magic Core. It is a Level 3 Medium sword.
The moment the sword came into contact with Theo's Mana, it began to produce crackling lightning sounds and began to generate lightning bolts throughout the sword.
”Oho! Despite being a low level, it's a good sword!” He praised Leonidas.
”Thanks!” Theo thanked him.
”Hmm? Were you the one to make it?” Leonidas didn't think he would be so lucky.
”Well, yes, it was me!” Replied Theo.
”I see, I see, it was made by you!! Haha, the heavens have not forsaken me!” Leonidas looked up at the sky and Theo could have sworn he saw tears streaming from Leonidas's eyes, but very quickly it disappeared into thin air.
Theo looked at him strangely, but seeing that he got serious, he decided not to think too much and also to prepare himself by getting into a fighting stance.
