Li Zi, Li Mingji, Xides.
I’ve long forgotten how to address him.
The Void Overlord took a deep breath, gazing coldly at Leo:
"Do you know the amount of suffering I’ve endured? I’ve spent every day and night in the pain and unease of Li Mingji. To beco the Void Overlord, I paid an enormous price: imprisoned 29 tis, wanted 111 tis, pursued by bounty hunters 13 tis, many tis nearly executed by firing squad - to escape prison, I even crushed my own testicles. I’ve lost everything: dignity, identity, status, safety, self, soul!"
"Ironic, so ironic... As the seed of the Starry Abyss, I was supposed to enjoy all the benefits of a noble deity, yet now I’m just the ruler of the Seventh Pathway. I’ve lost my complexion and race; had I not beco the ruler, I wouldn’t even deserve a na!"
He held his forehead, sneering:
"Now, I’ve beco a minion of the Void, while you have the audacity to appear before under the na ’Liberator’."
"As if I did sothing wrong - Leoz! What right do you have to face ?"
Boom ————————!
The aura of nothingness swept through the hall, looking down, the markings on the ground vanished instantly.
This was rely the exposure of aura, capable of erasing the traits of matter. With a bit of intention, more than just the markings could vanish — skin, flesh... anything.
"Leoz..."
Zhi Xiang clenched his fist:
"Give it up, this guy is Kappa (10), no matter how you fought before, against a real Kappa, you have no chance of winning..."
Leo did not reply.
He looked up, toward that face so similar to his father’s in his mory.
"... There’s sothing you mistaken."
Leo spoke:
"I didn’t usurp Leo’s life."
"Leo, male, 21 years old, on Frost Plated ti November 21st, 3:29 am, was killed by a Spirit Monster at the Frost Plated Republic Jianlin County Village and Town Savings Bank."
"Leo could have attended the joint program of Red Arrow and Frost Plated, then gotten a work visa and emigrated abroad. But what truly caused him to be killed by a Spirit Monster?"
Leo said calmly:
"It was Frost Plated’s gender discrimination and racial discrimination."
.........
"What’s this— don’t co over!"
Leo struggled to get up, panic-stricken:
"Don’t kill , I don’t want to die... I haven’t yet flown into the skies of Frost Plated."
Yet the ghost couldn’t understand human language at all.
It floated, slowly approaching.
"Why kill ... my life isn’t worth anything, why not kill those rich people?"
Leo struggled, but the corpse of the bank’s security guard Lanny was pressing on him, and in his panic, he couldn’t break free.
"Why is it , what did I do wrong..."
Filled with terror, cold and suffocating pressure caused tears to involuntarily flow from Leo’s eyes. In despair, he suddenly recalled the words of the broadcast:
[Friendly reminder: Spirit Monsters are easily attracted to those who harbor resentnt. For your safety, please maintain a good mood.]
Turns out it was the Spirit Monster, his own resentnt that attracted it over.
...Pfft.
Leo grinned, laughing out loud.
Turns out poor people aren’t even allowed to complain.
Of course, the rich wouldn’t be attacked, for they harbor no resentnt.
Crying and laughing, facing the approaching Spirit Monster, all fear vanished, leaving only resentnt and unwillingness.
The rich can attend university, take expensive floating cars, eat fresh fruits and vegetables, even maintain a pleasant mood, not plagued by Spirit Monsters.
Spirit Monsters aren’t truly terrifying, the only truly fearful thing in this world is poverty.
Leo closed his eyes, he, a materialist, at this mont, full of resentnt, cursed:
"Deities, if you truly exist, please destroy this damned country."
The Spirit Monster closed in, extending shapeless claws, striking toward Leo.
.........
"Although I exist by residing in Leo’s body, preserving my existence, I did not kill Leo."
Leo spread his hands:
"On the contrary, I was born following Leo’s dying wish, inheriting the dual will of Leoz and Leo."
"Are you defending yourself? Your Excellency, Leoz, little Leo."
Xides barked:
"You’re just a re cannon fodder deity, do you think you can transcend your race? Am I to fear your rits surpassing the master? The Starry Abyss Divine Race stands above trash like you who possess nothing. Do you think you can cover your past atrocities with a little insignificant military rit and saving Leo?"
"Quite the opposite, Mr. Li Mingji, Lord Xides. I admit, I inherited Leoz’s identity and legacy, so the debts and sins of the past, I will not evade."
Leo said:
"But let tell you a fact."
"My humanity doesn’t just stem from Li Zi’s mories and what Leo gave , but also from the support of many companions, friends, classmates, comrades along the way."
"To this day, I am no longer just ’Leo’ or ’Leoz’."
He pulled the Sword of Destiny Awakening from the ground.
"I am Leo, the bank’s security guard, I am Leoz, the usurper tyrant, I am Leo, the legendary figure of Azure Star, among players, I am the invincible True General, in Starry Abyss, I am Leoz Dominet, President of Baizhu Star."
Under the watchful eyes of N4 and Zhi Xiang, Leo leveled the blade, aid at the Void Overlord:
"The chanic believed I could reach the cosmos, so I embarked."
"Then, I made a promise with a prosecutor to witness the cosmic starry sky for her."
"I told an insecure tailor I would await her rediscovery of self."
"A red-haired fool persuaded to attend university, and now I am a master’s graduate."
"I vaguely rember a foul-mouthed little ghost made a plethora of promises, to save a tragic country frost-plated bone white."
"I also have two college sworn brothers; the school beauty once beca my secretary, while the Gabros of war weapons was chard by ."
"You ask what right I have to face you?"
Leo shrugged, said:
"I have done more to save Starry Abyss than you, the people of Azure Star know of my sacrifices for them, even among the players, I have the best reputation."
"Even though I was infected by the Void, including my incarnations, I’ve died eight tis. Have I ever been so desperate as to run to the Void?"
"The answer is—no."
"I am utmost loyal to Starry Abyss, both past and present, while you, as the seed of Starry Abyss, can’t even maintain a basic pathway. You talk of qualifications with ? Then tell , what has Starry Abyss ever done for ?"
Leo spoke without pausing, candidly stated:
"As the deity born from Leo’s dying wish, and the usurper tyrant exiled by Gaia, my existence is for one purpose only."
"And that is: to reclaim all inequities inflicted upon ."
"Be it from society or narrative, or even—from the dignitaries of Starry Abyss!"
