Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When Lu Ze heard Alice’s sigh, he turned to look at her.
The dusk cast a layer of orange light on her. Her eyes were complicated and Lu Ze didn’t really understand it.
He smiled. “Alice, your smile is completely different from how you normally smile. We’re still young. No matter how beautiful the dusk is, just enjoy it. If we exclaim too much, we’ll get old.”
The two had gotten closer during the day so Lu Ze could joke around with her.
Alice looked at how Lu Ze smiled at her and her mood cald down a little. She turned to keep looking at the dusk but still couldn’t smile.
Then, she said in a seemingly distant voice, “Senior schoolmate, I want to tell you sothing. However, you must not tell anyone, not even Li.”
Lu Ze was left dazed upon hearing this. He looked at Alice, who didn’t seem to be okay, and said, “What is it?”
Alice looked at Lu Ze. “If you don’t promise, I won’t tell you.”
Lu Ze looked at Alice silently. Eventually, he nodded. “Okay, I promise.”
He felt like it was sothing very important.
Then, Alice showed a different smile from before. It seed quite sad under the dusk’s light. “Senior schoolmate, did you know that there’s a race that is naturally born at the peak of the universe?”
When Lu Ze heard this, he felt surprised. He wasn’t expecting for her to say this. He nodded and replied, “I know.”
There was no fairness in the universe. There were strong and weak races.
The human race was just an ordinary race, completely different from the races that naturally dominated the universe.
For example, the legendary star spirit race. It was a race born from starlight. Upon birth, they would already be in the cosmic realm state and when they mature, they beca a cosmic lord. Such powerful beings could annihilate the milky way galaxy with just a thought.
But the good thing is that such powerful beings have no interest in ordinary races.
They’re already immortal and have seen too many races being created and destroyed. There’s very little that can interest them.
Alice then smiled bitterly. “Did you know that there are so god arts that if you awaken them, you will have the sa talent and power as those of the top races?”
Lu Ze heard this and was shocked. Let alone not knowing this, he didn’t know much about god arts.
Seeing Alice’s bitter smile, Lu Ze realized that his chest felt heavy for so reason.
He simply said, “I didn’t know this, but Alice, why are you telling this?”
Alice turned to keep looking at the dusk. The sunlight gradually dimd down and she seed a little cold as she squird.
After a period of silence, Alice continued, “My god art is called source fla.”
Lu Ze didn’t speak. He had so conjectures of his own.
“It’s a part of that group of god arts that as long as you mature, you can compete with the top races of the universe.”
Lu Ze’s eyes narrowed.
Indeed...
He looked at Alice. She really has such terrifying talent?
At this mont, Alice suddenly smiled at Lu Ze and laughed. “Hehe, senior schoolmate is probably thinking: this naïve, smiling junior schoolmate actually has such terrifying talent?”
Lu Ze: “...”
How did you know what I was thinking?
After scaring Lu Ze, Alice’s voice sounded distant again, “But... the problem is, I was born in the human race...”
Lu Ze asked, “What’s wrong with being born in the human race?”
“Just awakening a god art at the level of source fla would require terrifying energy,” Alice said, “not to ntion future growth. The human race doesn’t have such energy...
“As soon as I was born, I showed signs of awakening. At first, my ancestor and elders all thought that I was awakening so powerful god art. When I was five, the awakening stopped.”
There was a hint of sadness in her eyes.
This was the first ti Lu Ze saw a girl as cheerful as her display such an expression.
“Due to the lack of energy, the awakening failed and there was a backlash. My mother...”
Alice’s body shook and she continued, “My mother tried to save by planting half of her life fla and soul into to help suppress the awakening source fla. Then, she fell into a deep sleep.
“anwhile, my ancestor and so elders discovered quite a bit of information before finding out what god art it was.
“So, my ancestor and the elders went outside the galaxy to help find energy to help the awakening. Quite so powerful beings in the federation helped as well.
“...Perhaps they’re hoping that I can awaken the god art and beco a powerful being who can protect the prosperity of the human race?
“Outside the milky way galaxy is far more dangerous than you can imagine. The last ti I saw my ancestor was 8 years ago.”
Alice bit her lips and said shakily, “At the ti, my ancestor was heavily injured and almost died. However, he brought back a small piece of hollow source. Due to this, I was able to live up until now.”
Seeing Alice shiver, Lu Ze took out the new blanket he bought and put it over her.
Alice squeezed herself into the blanket and smiled at Lu Ze.
However, her smile didn’t make Lu Ze any happier.
She continued, “So people sigh and say I was born into the wrong race. If I was born into so powerful race, I would be one of the most prestigious prodigies in the universe.”
Lu Ze looked at Alice. “Then, what do you think?”
Alice looked firmly at Lu Ze and smiled. “I’m happy that I was born into the human race.
“However, it’s too unfair for others. They’ve sacrificed too much. Mother has slept for 12 years due to . My father helps take in the fla’s backlash, enduring the scorch of the source fla every ti. My ancestor who almost died and the powerful beings in the federation have all been working hard to help...”
Lu Ze silently looked at Alice who was holding in her sadness and not crying.
Eventually, he smiled. “Um, if you want to cry, you can lean on my shoulder. Free for this ti only.”
Alice rolled her eyes. “You’re so an. You only say this to now.”
Lu Ze replied, “Do you want it?”
Alice didn’t talk and just placed her head on Lu Ze’s shoulder.
Then ca so sniffing. Then, the crying gradually grew louder and louder. Alice clutched Lu Ze’s clothes tightly and wept.
“Senior schoolmate... I don’t want to die! If I die, what would happen to my mum? Half of her life fla and soul are in my body. She will die! If both my mother and I leave, what about my dad? And what about my ancestor... I haven’t seen him for so long...”
