Umm, you are right, then why don't I go with Forsaken by fate?
You have said that you cannot see my fate, right? So it sounds like a good na for .
Beside that, I do not want to get entangled with fate at all.
So the na, soone who has been forsaken by his fate.
[Hmm, you can go with that.]
Alright, then, I choose Forsaken by fate as my na for the tower.
After I wrote my na on the screen that popped up before , the robotic voice sounded again.
[Congratulations, player Forsaken by fate. Your na has been forever engraved on the tower as the first conquerer of the tower.]
[You will hold this title as long as you are arrived or till you keep on conquering the tower.]
[You will forever be burdened with the duty of the conquerer, that is to keep on conquering more floors and carrying the hopes of the beings that you have gave slained.]
As i read the notification that popped up before , I stood there stunned.
I did understand what that ant, but still, I couldn't help but raise the question...
What?
[You will now be getting all the mories of the beings that have died by your hands.]
I will be having their mories...?
And as soon as that notification fell... I heard a buzz inside my head.
Countless mories were being filled inside my brain, they were so much that it was getting insufferable for .
I grabbed my head in pain, sweats covering my entire body.
Veins popped up on my forehead as i gritted my teeth.
As soon as Nova saw in pain, she imdiately wished over to and tried to calm down.
"Evan... what's happening with you?"
But I was in no co edition to say anything to her.
But then, the voice of my system sounded and even Nova was able to hear that.
[This is the burden that he must face in order to beco a conquerer. He will be carrying the legacy of all the beings that have been enslaved by the tower, only then he will be able to conquer this tower. He will forever be burdened with the mories of the fallen.]
[But do not worry, it won't harm him. You know him more than anyone, just this isn't enough to do him harm.]
But that didn't satisfy Nova, her face looked pained. She gritted her teeth in anger as she hugged .
"If sothing happens to him then mark my words, I will destroy you and this tower entirely."
She swore at the system screen.
I simply laid there in her arms as more and more mories appeared in my head.
I had killed billions just now, and the mories I received from them... it felt like I have lived the life of each and every one of them. If not for my ntal fortitude, I would have lost my identity.
Inside my head, I kept on chanting...
I cannot lose... I cannot lose...
If I were to lose my sanity for a second, I will lose myself forever.
I was finally able to form a clear picture inside my head.
Slowly, their suffering before their death... I was beginning to feel them.
I can clearly see how all of this started. How the tower appeared in their this planet and how they fought against it.
But at the end... they couldn't win at all.
As the more mories popped up in my head, I could feel as if I was one of them...
I was feeling their emotions of them slaughtering their own kind for more power... them being the slave for the tower... and most importantly, the feeling of hopelessness they felt when they were faced with that demon. Your journey continues at My Virtual Library Empire
Hmm...? That demo-...
My head began to hurt even more, blood began to run down from my eyes. I began to hungrily gasp for the breath... but nothing.
And when i looked at that demon in my mories again, it grinned at .
It felt as if he could see , no... he was looking at .
His grin intensified even more as he looked at my pathetic self.
Then suddenly, I felt sothing deep inside . It was a familiar feeling.
Deep inside my body, a dark vortex was swirling trying to devour anything on its path.
I know what that was... it was my physique. But why was it acting up now?
The vortex beca more and more bigger, it was trying it's hardest to get out of my body.
And just when it was about to erge out, that demon spoke to .
"Not yet, youngest. Tell that little beast of yours to stay put. It won't be fun for if I killed you here right now. You have a lot to achieve in the future. But we will et soon, and when we do, I will give you a good present."
Saying that, the demon disappeared from there. It disappeared from my mories, but what he said just now... I rember that clearly.
[Error... an error is occurring. The mories of the conquerer is being altered.]
[The system is trying to stabilise the source of the error.]
The system imdiately acted up, but even that didn't find anything.
[No error found.]
It was shocking, just what was that thing? Even the system wasn't able to find him.
What kind of entity was even that?
After that thing disappeared from my mory, my head finally felt at rest. The process of receiving the mories of the fallen also ended.
***
Inside the system space.
The female looking glowing thing trembled after seeing the sight of that demon in Evan's mory.
"T-that thing... he is coming after Evan? Why did you not stop him?"
To her response, the system spoke...
[That is not my duty. Whether he cos in the mory of the variable or not.]
[Beside, I do not hold the strength to resist him.]
"If not you then who will resist him? If Evan dies even before reaching his full potential, then what about the war that will happen in the future?"
[Hmm, you sound as though he is the only one partaking in that war... there are many key holders that will be of great significance for that war. Even, I am a key in that war and that demon as well. Either one cannot be killed.]
[And we also do not have permission to use our strengths yet. If we do, then the cycle will repeat again.]
"If you are not willing to help then, I will. Even if i have to sacrifice myself, I will do it."
[Hmm, you... overestimate yourself. Your existence doesn't hold that much importance to either of us.]
[But your sacrifice might help him... a loss of soone dear often helps to unleash their potential. But I do not think it will work on our youngest.]
"If you feel i have so little importance then, why did you even offer your help to ? Why even give hope?"
[It wasn't . It was her who told to help you. It was with her order that I asked you to be the familiar of our youngest.]
[She told , if you wanted your revenge, then youngest might be able to help you, but it wasn't for certainty, he might fail as well. Other than him, the only one who could have done that for sure was our eldest, but he will never follow anyone's order.]
'I had agreed to his request to get my revenge on that demon, but if it is going to endanger the life of Evan, then i am fine with not having my revenge. If it cos to it, then I will go take my revenge myself. I don't want to see the things that happened to happen to others. I will face that demon myself.'
***
The mories ended, but I still laid there motionless.
I was taking my ti sorting out all the things that I just saw.
There i felt their sufferings, their pain but I was able to learn many other things too. It wasn't a complete loss as I now have battle experience of all those goblins and their techniques, though that doesn't amount to much. Still, sothing is better than nothing.
I slowly opened my eyes. The first thing I saw after that was a crying face of Nova who was tightly holding onto .
I feel bad to make her cry but at the sa ti it feels good to see that soone is crying with the thought of losing .
I forced a smile on my face and said, "I didn't die."
She sobbed seeing that I was fine and replied with, "You dummy."
And kissed on my lips.
Her long hairs fall over my face gently. The setting sun dimly shine upon us as both of us were connected as one.
