Chapter 665 - Eternity Beyond Everything
"What, aren't you gonna attack? Come on, don't be so reserved." Beline kept on provoking Bloodflaw. He knew that it was too easy to provoke an existence with hot blood, who only did things driven by emotions.
Too bad though, Noah was with him. If not, it would have been easier to deal with Bloodflaw.
"It seems like we won't get proper answer from you, Beline." Noah's eyes were changing colors. However, he didn't attack and held off Bloodflaw who still wanted to attack, "However, I have a decent guess of who has your legacy right now."
"Oh? Let's hear it." Beline knew that Noah would find it out one way or another. After all, Noah was a very intelligent law and even Beline had to admit this fact.
"Feng Lin's successor came here before us and you gave it to him, right?" Noah knelt down and pointed a finger towards the floor, "I can see light footsteps of two persons here. Although I don't know the identity of the other, he or she must be a knight having a sword as a weapon."
Beline smiled. He was so impressed about the wits of Noah despite being bitter enemies. Noah was capable and brilliant at the same time, it would only a matter of time before he became the strongest law in the world.
"Noah, you are indeed bright. Too bad, you chose this path. One day, karma will bite you and you cannot do anything about it." Beline sighed.
"I assume I am right with my speculation, then." Noah wasn't surprised. It was easy for him deduce the clues and connect them without a problem. He looked at Bloodflaw who was shocked and told him, "Blood, it looks like we have to hasten our preparations to attack the empire."
Bloodflaw nodded, "That's right. Since that bastard successor has Beline's legacy, we have to attack Phoenix Empire as soon as possible. We cannot delay any further. I have to contact God King for this."
For them, it was an utmost emergency and a disadvantageous situation. The enemy had the legacy and it would be detrimental if the Feng Lin's successor gave it to others. It wasn't a situation they wanted to see.
"Give up. It's already too late now." Beline interrupted and spoke, "By now, someone is already taking the legacy of mine and become the next law in my place. Do you think you still have the chance to become invincible then?"
"You shut up, old man." Bloodflaw cursed out loud, "You are nothing but a mere intent. Just die in peace and see this world be under our control, en?"
"Fool." Beline shook his head and didn't say more.
Bloodflaw was angered again after being called a fool but Noah had already pulled him away out of this place, "Beline, we will leave now. Although we might be enemies, I hope you will forgive us. This is for the betterment of the world."
"Noah, you believe that nonsense said by God King? You really think that by gathering the strength of strong laws and killing them to take their legacy, you can save the world from that existence?" Beline sneered, "You are gravely mistaken, Noah. You miscalculated."
Beline made sense. Even Feng Lin could only seal that existence for billions of years, what more for God King who was only the second strongest?
"Mistaken or not, this is my choice. And even if I replay this over and over again, I will still choose to believe God King. He is my savior and the only person who I greatly trust." Noah said calmly. He made up his decision a long time ago and it wouldn't change no matter what.
Beline sighed. He was very aware of the deep friendship between Noah and God King. After all, he knew the hidden stories behind them. But it didn't diminish the fact of what they did, "Do you really think God King is trustworthy? Think about it, even his closest brother, Feng Lin, was murdered by his own hands and you and Bloodflaw as accomplices. When there's a greater benefit for him, he would do everything including betraying those who was closest with him."
Noah didn't know what to say about this argument. In truth, he also thought about this but he refused to believe that God King could do that to him. At the very least, he believed it that way, "If God King were to betray me, then it's my mistake for believing him. However, it won't change the fact that I believe him right now."
"Alright, leave now." Beline knew that it was useless persuading this person. Noah fully trusted God King and wouldn't realize his mistake unless God King betray him, "But I won't wish you three well, I hope you all rot in hell."
Noah bowed but didn't speak. Eventually, he left and vanished.
Beline looked up and he could feel that his intent was soon to disappear. He smiled wryly and spoke softly, "It looks like my time has come. I can finally reunite with you, Dear."
It was a voice filled with warmth and affection. A long long time ago, Beline fell in love with a mortal woman. They lived together in peace and happiness. However, the tale was short-lived as the woman had only several tens of years to live. Beline wanted to make the woman an immortal however the woman refused it flatly. She wanted to die as a mortal and Beline had no choice but to acquiesce, albeit reluctantly. Since then, Beline chose not to love again.
For Beline, who could live for trillions of years, the tens of years with her was the brightest and happiest moments of his life and up until now, he couldn't forget her and her facial features that could shame fairies. For billions of years, he had been missing her until now. Slowly, tears formed on the side of his eyes despite being an intent.
Countless memories flashed in his mind as he slowly closed his eyes. He was greatly anticipating their meeting once again after a long long time.. Finally, they would be together and this time, it was for eternity beyond everything else.
