Chương 424: The Reason and the result

"So, don't act like a fool."

The man's soft and delicate voice, which was akin to the gentle touch of rose petals on the skin, gradually faded as it reached the last words; like autumn leaves scattered by the winds. 

Kairen was left flabbergasted at the spoken sentences. The cracks that were swirling all around him came to a halt as his wandering eyes moved back to the person holding him, to his brother who was tightly hugging him while withstanding shockwaves from the pillar of light and Kairen's power. Small and large wounds kept appearing on his brother's body as various powers clashed and hit them. What gave him the most injuries was the electric currents bouncing around Kairen.@@novelbin@@

"...."

As if a needle hitting a balloon, in an instant, all the emotions boiling in his chest vanished like a lie. He froze on his spot, unable to comprehend the situation or understand what was happening to him. 

-You and I are basically strangers.

-Kairen. 

-That's who you are. 

Roy's words echoed in his ears. As he gazed at his brother's face, hot streams of tears flowed down his cheeks. 

Kairen was... a total stranger to that man?

He was Kairen. Not Reynold, but Kairen. Unlike Reynold, Kairen had a family, he had friends, he had his brother, and had hopes for the future.

The person who knew Roy was someone from the past, from another life; someone who was already dead. 

"...."

So does this mean that the emotions he felt didn't belong to him at all? That the desire he had to save that man was that of his past life's, not his? He was Kairen. Had Kairen put his, and his brother's lives in danger just to cling to someone of the past?

'No, does that even matter?'

He just wanted to stop whatever was happening. He could think about the unimportant matters later, for now, he just needed to-

WROMMMMMM

The instant hesitation was enough for Kairen to miss his chance to bring about any changes to the situation. With an earsplitting roar, the pillar of light quivered powerfully. It was as if the sky was falling down. The earth was splitting apart.
