I achieved the impossible and the envy of all the past Scholars. ” Gold said with a slightly arrogant, filthy tone which made Weslie laughed.

”Immortality, ” Weslie said with a smile despite her cloak hiding her eyes.

”With conditions! ” Gold smiled widely before he again tried to lower her cloak down.
”Don ’t worry.
It ’s just the two of us here.
” Her peaceful, delicate eyes along with that sweet looking mouth was a sight for sore eyes as Gold curled her hair behind the right ear where the flesh and bones were apparent.



Weslie retracted her head a little and Gold apologised, thinking that without the skin, touching the muscle would have hurt her, but she shook her head furiously.
After multiple suicide attempts, she felt very little at all.

”….I want you to join us.
To see the world we live in and many more.
To meet Jin and all those whose life your spell has saved.
My Master has even granted us a mansion with a farm in front of it, tended by all of us.
You could finally live out the simple life a lot of people dream about. ” Gold said, but Weslie could see that he was struggling to say something out.
It was not until he took a deep breath.

”…I …I missed you.
I really did.
Not a day went by where I did not regret that I was unable to protect you. ” Gold confessed while looking straight into her eyes.

”I always regret not able to say it as I grabbed onto your nearly cold corpse as we fled away from the Compass Tower…I promise I will absolutely slaughter the North and South Scholars for defiling your corpse. ” Gold then realised he might have been a little too emotional as he saw her eyes were flooded with tears.
He remembered how West used her last breath to teleport Gold even further away from the scene as he had already used the last of his mana to fight against the mutiny.

”As I thought, that my life was over at the fight, my last thought was hoping you would be safe.
When I awoke once more, I was looking forward to meet you again… but then I saw what they did to me.
What they forced me to do since then… ” Weslie felt those nightmarish memories were ever recurring.

”Every time I created a new weapon, I wished that none of them would be used against you.
Each and every day, my heart ached, and it grew numb by the consistent demands of North and South.
I am sorry.
I am so sorry! I tried to undermine them.
I really tried. ” Tears flowed like an unending river and Gold attempted to come closer and put his shoulder around her, but she took the initiative first.

”I will only get uglier, you know? Even if you manage to recreate that necromancy ritual! I may look worse! I might even be a different person than what you see now! You know the repercussions of re-resurrecting a dead person! ” Weslie cried, and Gold sighed because it seemed like she did not remember whatever they discussed a while ago.

”So please, let me be yours.
Not because I owed you.
Not because of the guilt that I have.
But because I really did like you.
– No, I still do! Please let me be in your arms until the end of my life. ” Weslie wept.

Gold never thought that a logic driven lady like Weslie could fall into the traps of emotions and act way beyond reason.
But he understood the fear…even though it was just a little.
Since he too had experienced death.
Not once nor twice but like a frequent traveller going through the customs.
All he could do now was to comfort her until she experienced the System ’s resurrection herself.

”Scholar Gold, System has determined that Scholar Weslie won ’t require the necromancy ritual.
Her soul has been tightly linked to the two Elder Demons due to various circumstances.
System speculates that this was done to prevent the deterioration of her skills and abilities. ” The System suddenly informed Gold about it.

”Your rivals have used the highest quality of blood ritual normally performed by powerful demons.
Scholar of the West, Weslie ’s fate is greatly intertwined with the two Elder Demons. ” System then provided the most optimal solution.

”To assure a perfect capture, both Elder Demons have to be killed simultaneously, or her soul may fracture. ”


”Roger that.
Any relevant information from our cute malware Foxy? ” Kraft overheard the conversation from the System Channel, and the System notified that there was nothing of note yet.

”Boring! ” Kraft yawned on sight as Sebastia was working out furiously.

”Sebas, Girl! You heard the System.
Just weaken, I will kill them together.
Enough with the warm up, time to show off your skills, before I finish it. ”

”Yes, Bellator Kraft! ” Sebastia smiled as she performed her Demonic Minotaur Martial Arts, Drawing the Full Moon, Dividing the Watermelon, and cutting the Water Snake ’s tail away despite the watery illusion it used.
The Burning Lion had already received damage through its innards with her ’Noodles that Skips The Mouth and into Stomach ’ punch.

”Okay, that is good enough. ” Kraft sneered as he aimed at his No Mercy at the two Elder Demons.

———-

Suddenly, Weslie felt a strange feeling coursing through her whole body.
She could feel her circulation system begin to fail her.
Her breathing was getting worse along with it.
”Gold! ” Her eyes were trembling with even more tears as Gold held onto her.

Even though he knew that she was going to be resurrected again, Gold could not help but tear at the sight of it.
”Shhh Shhh…I am at your side.
Do not worry, Weslie.
I am here.
I am here for you.
I am not going anywhere.
It ’s just like a short dream.
And once you wake up, I will still be by your side. ”Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

Weslie tried her best to cling on to Gold, but her strength was waning by the second, and she disliked that feeling a lot.
For the second time in her life, she was fading away from her lover.

”At the very least…I finally confessed my feelings for him.
This time he is here for me… ” She thought to herself as she could see Gold sweet talking her as if encouraging her that everything will go just fine.

”You idiot.
Thank you for giving me hope… ” Weslie smiled weakly as she closed her eyes in peace and soon her flesh disintegrated, leaving just her cloaked robe and dust.
However, within that robe, Gold could feel something heavy and went to dig into the robe.

What he found was the Litoride Gem that the Elder Demon Burning Lion and Water Snake had treasured.
”Hahah, those North, South bastards…I know you were bastards.
But to go the extra mile… to defile my gift to my love and use it the catalyst for her life.
I am – We will never forgive you. ”

”But first…System suggests that Scholar Gold welcome his lover at Werejackal ’s home instance.
System has placed her in your bed.
A kiss will be sufficient to wake her up. ” The System notified before it automatically teleported Gold back with all the items in that basement hall.

”Damn System.
I didn ’t know you were such a romantic. ”
