Chapter 98: The Ender of Death’s relation! A familiar power: Fighting Spirit

"Woah." Caelus was stunned by the sudden impact.

"Because I was concerned." Sylvia looked up, her cheeks puffed out in anger. "I came back two hours ago, yet you were still not here. I had my doubts; something bad had happened. We clearly initiated the quest at the exact same time, even with the confirmation from the system."

"I like long stories~" Sylvia let out a cheerful, albeit slightly forced, smile.

He did not know. He felt like he was extremely close to Sylvia, but at the exact same time, he felt a strange distance.

In the end, Caelus decided to come clean.

"You can tell me anything," Sylvia said readily. "Even if I die, I will never allow a single secret of yours to get out."

Sylvia smiled cheerfully at that fact.

Sylvia listened attentively as Caelus continued speaking, absorbing every word.

"This tale..." Sylvia’s expression slowly turned entirely solemn. "I have heard of it."

"Yes." Sylvia nodded softly. "I have heard of this exact tale from my Ancestor. You might not know this, but he is not originally from the Azure Origin Planet."

"Yes. It is a long story, but the Azure Origin Planet never had any other races other than humans at one point in time. We are only residing here now because the Origin Network allows us to."

"My Ancestor told me that we are currently at a long stasis with no new Enders being birthed. But he foresaw an Ender being born soon. The war between them had been going on for millennia. If there is one born, then it is a definitive sign that a new Ender of Death will also be born, and we vampires will have to unite under their forces. But to them, we are nothing but disposable chess pieces. We will never be able to match the Enders under normal circumstances."

"Yeah." Sylvia nodded, looking slightly confused. "But what relation does that have with you, Caelus? Is your race, the Chaos Perception Dragon, related to it somehow?"

"Do you really have to unite under the Ender of Death?" Caelus asked with a deep frown.

Caelus hesitated hearing this. Did that not technically mean Sylvia was an enemy waiting to happen?

Now he was really having second thoughts about revealing his true class.

"Then that just means I will definitely not side with the Ender of Death. I am not like the other vampires, nor do I blindly follow their methods. I hate every single vampire in that estate. I will never follow the Ender of Death."

"My Ancestor was the only thing protecting me in that vile household. Once he went to another world, they..." Sylvia clicked her tongue, refusing to finish the sentence.

"So you hate the vampires and also will not follow the Ender of Death."

"Well..." Caelus sighed and physically manifested a system window containing his Class details, pushing it toward Sylvia.

Sylvia’s mind violently buzzed in shock as reality viciously kicked in.

"Unfortunately." Caelus sighed again. "The exact reason our Ascension Quests got violently split was also due to it."

"The past where the Ender of Origin looked at the burning skies of a ruined world with absolute indifference," Caelus added softly.

"The birth of an Ender... if my Ancestor is entirely correct, as long as one Ender is officially born, there will be a massive chain reaction, and it will automatically give birth to other Enders as well."

That meant the Ender of Death had most likely also been born!

"I will never betray you," Sylvia conveyed with burning intensity. "I already told you my answer before, and that is still my final answer to you."

"We absolutely need to see my Ancestor," Sylvia suddenly spoke up. "He might be able to help us."

By now, she had already firmly decided. She would not let a single soul harm Caelus. She would give him the absolute protection he needed as a newly born Ender.

And the very first step was contacting her Ancestor.

It was an urgent message from her brother.

[He finally found what he went there for.]

"Uh-huh." Caelus looked at the message with a heavy sigh.

Just then, he also received a system ping. It was a message from Mia.

"Then, I am heading out." Caelus turned to Sylvia, who was currently looking at him with a pleasant yet slightly twitching smile.

"I will be back in an hour," Caelus said speechlessly as he hastily left the apartment.

She quickly wore them, completely masking her usual striking appearance, and left the mansion, whistling innocently.

Her entire existence felt fundamentally threatened.

Soon, Caelus met up with Mia in a public square.

"Hello, Caelus Kross." Mia bowed back at him politely. Everyone nearby was giving Mia a look of awe; she was naturally very beautiful, almost as breathtaking as Sylvia herself.

"Alright. Lead the way then," Caelus said with a short nod.

She began closely tailing them, completely disregarding the passing pedestrians she forcefully bumped into. She followed them while audibly grinding her teeth in jealousy.

Bang!

"Hey, watch where you are going, freak!" the passerby snapped, clearly annoyed.

Sylvia immediately snapped her head back forward, only to realize that Caelus and Mia had vanished into the bustling crowd.

Eventually, she reached the mouth of a dark, narrow alleyway with not many people around.

"What is the actual meaning of this, Miss Mia?" Caelus asked, a very calm smile forming on his face as his Chaos Axiom energy silently surged around him.

Fighting Spirit.

The very next moment, a blinding holy radiance violently erupted from Mia’s body.
