Chapter 1079: Return

Even though two days had gone, Rhode was still in a really good ht back the Astral Telescope Whenever Rhode recalled Ion’s ashen expression as though his father had just passed away, his obble a few h it took less than three hours for hier sister to head and return from the Darkness Capital and they didn’t even bother to speak a few more words or have a chat over tea, Rhode didn’t feel like what she had done rong Even though her behavior was inappropriate according to ‘traditional’ diplohted Moreover, they went to the Darkness Capital to express their stand too

Since they had gotten the Astral Telescope, they needed to give Ion a warning using their attitude that the Void Territory wouldn’t accept bribes and ‘acting tough and talking soft’ wouldn’t work on theon would behave hi his younger sister to not show deference to the Dark Dragon In fact, even soout, Rhode planned to do the exact opposite He was eager for the Dark Dragon to lose his patience and declare ith him because to Rhode, the most important on Soul Continent away from the threat of Chaos For this to work, he needed to prove his abilities to the other three Creator Dragons (Lilian wasn’t included because she would basically do anything as long as he told her to) Of course, Rhode wouldn’t be that foolish to single out the twin dragons as a point of attack, which hy the Dark Dragon was the best whetstone As long as he defeated the Dark Dragon, he would have sufficient credits to explain his plans and ‘demand’ that they supported him

Yes ‘Demand’ and not ‘request’

This hy Rhode purposely ain, ‘taunting’ hih this method, Rhode could justifiably turn himself into a victim who had to retaliate with vicious attacks of his own What is that certain famous sentence? Hmm… Yes! We won’t fire the first bullet, but it doesn’tas you fire it, don’t bla all-out

Therefore, what he did wasn’t conspiring in secret Instead, he was conspiring openly His younger sister didn’t treat the Dark Dragon with deference and even disregarded him, but so what? Did anyone set the rules that one must face others who invaded one’s territory with smiles? Why would Rhode even care about this when he had reached the distinction of the Creator Dragons? If Ion were to send out his armies to the Void Territory over this issue, he would be the childish one instead

But nohat Rhode did wasn’t for naught He knew that the Dark Dragon was an unyielding on could tolerate it once or twice, but Rhode refused to believe that he could hold it in after 10, 20, 50, or even 100 tion could hold his patience so well, wouldn’t it be a waste if Rhode didn’t take advantage of hi more important to attend to

And that was after a period of ti, he was finally about to return to his body

Even though Rhode felt free and unfettered in his days as a spirit, he still pretty ht was also contradicting He eia she had for this world after finally beco this period If it was possible, he didn’t wish for this to end But… he are that this couldn’t last forever After all, even though he could accept this temporary relief, others couldn’t possibly accept the days without hi at the Astral Telescope that was fully reconstructed, Rhode let out a subtle sigh After returning froer sister reasseraved with dissonant runes, it was also put aside As the power in Rhode and his younger sister changed, he felt like the day of hi closer This also ain leave this world

“It’s fine, Big Brother This surprise is considered the best present forat the starry sky, the young lady said softly under her breath She closed her eyes and stretched out her hand to feel the gentle histling by The radiance of the sun, the water droplets on the surface of the greenish leaf blades, the crisp, refreshi+ng sound of the flowing creak in the near distance… Everything was co to an end for her Shortly after, the power inside her would vanish completely As the final traces of the power of contrast were lifted, the state between them would automatically reset like how a co the last virus to complete the final step

“I will surely think of a way to give you a body of your own”

“I trust you, Big Brother But don’t stress yourself over it… after all, it isn’t easy”

Indeed, just as the young ladyeasily-achievable If it was only about creating a body with life, it wasn’t hard for him as he had Lapis and Marlene around The former possessed the prohibited alchemy techniques of the Behermes, while the latter could create ‘hu for theical puppets

But the probleer sister was the first Void Dragon and her powerful strength wasn’t easily supportable by just anything If not, it wouldn’t be necessary for the dragon soul heirs to be beings foron soul protection to inherit the dragon soul For instance, Christie Even though she was the product of the essence between Rhode and his younger sister, the power she possessed wasn’t tolerable for most humans It was due to this reason that Christie was always sick and frail ever since birth If Rhode were to randoer sister’s soul, there was a high probability that she would end up like Christie If that happened, the gains wouldn’t er sister was only a soul fragment Rhode had discussed this with Alice, Lapis, and Marlene and the conclusion he got was that if he couldn’t find a perfect body for her to recuperate her soul, she would be hurt even more and eventually turned into ashes completely And that wasn’t what Rhode wanted

Time’s up

The sensation felt as familiar and reentle touch and scent Everything was the same as he remembered Rhode lifted his head and looked at the face that was identical to his He sensed the touch in his hand gradually fading away as though so that was supposed to be drawn as a line of boundary, turned indistinct, and eventually vanished

The radiance becaht light, the warm, familiar touch in his hand disappeared When he opened his eyes again, the young lady was no longer there and he finally returned to his usual self

“It has ended…”

Gazing at his palh He turned to the Astral Telescope and the pitch-black coffin under its supporting pillars had blended almost perfectly into the structure But before that… Rhode stretched out his hand at this thought Along with his action, a card in black and white contrast appeared in his hand His expression turned odd as soon as he witnessed it

Because that was, in fact, the Contrast Deity Warden, Cassidy
