Chapter 945: Just a little greedy
Gabriel was sitting under the moonlight, looking at the beautiful sky above. There was just one more day before he could use the crystal of Archangels. But as the time drew nearer, he was feeling more hesitant. He wanted to do this, but at the same time, he could still hear Karyk\'s voice who told him to live his life in a peaceful manner with Zena and the others. If he entered the world of Archangels, that peace was never going to return. And he would have to leave Zena behind. If he could find Karyk, it was fine. But if he could not do that, he wasn\'t even sure if he could ever return. There were two choices before him. He could either select revenge, or he could kill his desires and focus on his family. If he selected revenge, he could leave Zena with the others. This world wasn\'t too strong. With the Holy Priestess of Summoning, Novius, Cylix and two demigods, they could certainly protect her as long as nothing unexpected happened. But could he take the risk based on an assumption that everything was going to be fine? Could he really leave everything behind and just focus on himself?
On one end, there was Karyk when he wasn\'t even sure if he was alive or not. On the other hand was his sister and the last wish of Karyk. Everything depended on his decision. If he made a wrong choice, he could never forgive himself. He had been thinking about it for two days straight while spending as much time as possible with Zena and the others. Within these two days, his firm will had only gotten weaker. He only had one more day. Tomorrow night, it was the moment to use the crystal. If he used it then, there was no turning back. But if he gave up on the crystal, he could never get this opportunity again. "Brother, what are you doing here alone?"
Gabriel was looking at the crystal in his hand when he heard Zena\'s voice. He kept the crystal back in his Spatial Storage. "What are you doing here now?" he asked in return. "I was looking for you inside the house. But you weren\'t there. I was told that you were here."
"Did you need something?" Gabriel asked gently. "I need my brother, what else?" Zena hugged Gabriel from behind. "The last two days have been so fun. I am so happy that I could spend so much time with you."
Gabriel couldn\'t help but smile in response. Zena had grown up, but she was still a child. "What would you do if I told you that I had to go somewhere for a long time and I might never return?" "I would be really sad. But if you have to do it, I would understand that you must have an important reason. But the thought of never seeing you again... I can\'t bear it."
Although Zena was speaking calmly, but Gabriel could feel that it was filled with sadness as if she already expected that there was a possibility of that. Seeing her sad, Gabriel also felt hurt. His will was only growing weaker. "Is it right for your brother to be a little selfish and hold onto his family?"
"There is nothing greedy in wanting your family," Zena replied. "Aren\'t I greedy for my family, you?" n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Gabriel lowered his head. He also wanted to be greedy, but he was conflicted. "Protect Zena. Never return..." Karyk\'s words echoed in Gabriel\'s head, accompanied by Zena\'s words that it was fine to be greedy. "Will it not be evil to abandon someone for your family?"
"If I had to abandon the entire world for my brother, I would do it in a heartbeat. So it\'s not evil."
"What if you had to abandon a brother for the safety of your family?"
Zena grew silent. Why was her brother talking like this? Abandoning brother for family? Her brother was her only family. How could she think about this example?
"Can\'t you save both?" she asked. Gabriel shook his head. "You can only save one person."
"If you can only save one person, then it\'s not your fault. Instead of abandoning one person, you are saving one person. So choose the person you love the most."
"The person I love the most...?"
"Correct. If all three are family, no matter who you save, the other person will be happy. So why not save the person you love the most?"
Zena didn\'t think seriously about this example. She only had one family member according to her. She did not remember her other brother. So she only came up with these words. "Save the one you love the most. I see..." Gabriel placed his hand over Zena\'s hands. "I think I have an answer now."
"You can return home. I will be right there."
"Are you feeling better now?"
"I\'m feeling much better, thanks to my dear sister."
"Then come home fast. A delicious dinner is waiting for you!"
Zena freed her brother and started walking back, glad that she could help her brother. Gabriel stood up and watched Zena leave. "I do have an answer now. Even if this answer might be wrong, that\'s a sin for me to bear. I will select the person I love the most... No, the person \'we\' love the most."
He brought out the crystal of Archangels that could only be used the next night. He crushed the crystal and tossed the remnants off the cliff after destroying it completely. "I will be greedy this time. I will select to live my own life. If you are alive, I hope you can forgive me for being selfish..." He gazed at the bright moon in the sky before turning his back on it. That same night, the temple of Archangel in the city was also destroyed, but no one even took notice of it. The last remnants of the Archangels were also gone from this world, as a man chose to be just a little greedy.
