Chapter 483: Chapter 483: Leaving Without a Word, Anixegon’s Conspiracy
John slowly woke up after an unknown amount of time, the faint fragrance still lingering at the tip of his nose, but the space beside him was empty.
He suddenly jolted awake-Merciless Emperor had left without a word!
Though his body was covered with clothing, a sense of loss lingered in his heart.
It felt as if he had been teased by Merciless Emperor, especially since it was her initiative...
"Kid, you're awake?" came Gaka's teasing voice from nearby.
It was then that John noticed the thick ice that had sealed the Tree of Life was gone.
Quickly dressing, he glared at the Tree of Life and asked, "When did Merciless Emperor leave?"
"About half an hour ago," Gaka's voice responded. "Kid, don't tell me you've fallen for that woman?"
John frowned. "Old man, I've realized you're a bit too nosy."
Gaka remained silent for a moment before responding, "I'm just looking out for you. Merciless Emperor practices the Path of Mercilessness-forgetting emotions, severing ties, and eradicating feelings. The only thing she hasn't cut off is love. She's using you to further her own path."
"Using me?" John furrowed his brows, unable to accept this at first.
Although he'd only experienced one intense encounter, he had to admit that he had started to like Merciless Emperor.
Gaka's voice came again, "What's the matter? Is it that all the beautiful women around you can't satisfy you?"
"None of your business," John snapped back, clearly annoyed. He couldn't deny that he seemed to have become a little too flirtatious.
What do you think?
