Chapter 29: His Origin...
The first option was always the most dangerous, no matter how simple it looked. And the second option was the safest option, no matter how dangerous it appeared.
Previously, he had doubted this pattern and selected the first option, thinking he was overthinking about the pattern.
With everything that transpired after that, he realized that the pattern was correct. By selecting the first option, he had literally walked over to death\'s door.
Even though he felt that the second option was dangerous, he decided to trust his heart about this pattern.
Even though the second option looked the most dangerous, he decided to select it.
His faith in his own observation was wavering. His back was covered in cold sweat as he told the Sect Master to mind her own business.
While leaving, he expected his head to be flying at any moment. But to his surprise, he managed to leave the fourth floor alive.
He wasn\'t stopped as he left. He quickly rushed down the stairs, not wanting to be here in case the Sect Master changed her mind.
As quickly as he entered the library, he emerged from it.
The winds of the Phoenix surrounded him, making him fly high.
He landed on the back of the Phoenix which soared high in the sky, leading him towards his mountain.
It was only when he was with the Phoenix that he felt safer.
Sitting in the Phoenix\'s back, he patted his heart that was racing, making him feel like it was going to jump out of his chest.
Eren kept looking back to make sure the Sect Master wasn\'t following him. Fortunately, none appeared to be following him.
....
Standing on the fourth floor, the Sect Master looked out the window, gazing at the Phoenix flying away.
"He is still the same..."
She turned towards the Great Elder, who didn\'t have a veil on her face.
"He saw her face, so why wasn\'t he affected?" she wondered.
"Is it because of his origin? After all, he is..." she didn\'t finish her sentence. Only her eyes revealed a sense of understanding, as if she had a rough idea.
She turned to the Great Elder, who had stood up.
"I know what you\'re about to say." The Great Elder covered her face with the veil again. "I know I was wrong. I shouldn\'t have done this."
She looked perfectly normal. There was no sign that she had been affected by the seed of love. Even the Sect Master couldn\'t notice anything strange in her behavior.
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a cold hand grab her neck. Before she could even react, her back was smashed against the wall of the library.
"I told you not to play with him," the Sect Master said coldly, her voice laced with anger. "Do you take my orders as a joke?!"
"I-i don\'t." The Great Elder struggled to breathe. Uttering even a single word was a great struggle for her.
She knew that Feng Yu could actually kill her, even if they were friends. Feng Yu\'s Cultivation had made her lose all her emotions. She could neither feel love, nor hate.
She didn\'t care if it was a friend. If her commands were overlooked, she was going to kill them!
"Next time you ignore my commands, I\'ll have your head hanging at the entrance of the sect."
The Sect Master tossed the Great Elder aside like a doll.
"I-i will remember." The Great Elder exclaimed, coughing heavily as she watched a portal open before Feng Yu.
Feng Yu entered the portal, and left the library.
....
[Congratulations on completing the Second Option]
[You have been rewarded with a meeting opportunity]
[The Meeting will be after twenty four hours. Please prepare accordingly]
"Prepare accordingly for what? Shouldn\'t you at least tell me who I am meeting?" Eren asked, looking at the notification before him.
He knew the reward was some kind of meeting. But the name of the person he was meeting had been hidden. The reward was also in an unknown tier.
He didn\'t know who he was meeting. Was he someone dangerous?
Since this was a reward, he had a feeling that he wasn\'t going to die because of this reward. But he was really curious about it. Just who was he going to meet?
The system didn\'t answer him. There was no response to him. The system only informed him when there were options or rewards. Everything else was a mystery for him.
"Fine. Don\'t answer. I\'m just glad that I managed to survive at least." He lay on the back of the Phoenix, letting the winds brush through his hair as they soared through the clouds.
The majestic bird carried him effortlessly, and he couldn\'t help but feel a sense of freedom and wonder at the world below.
Although this world appeared like a dream, he knew that it was his reality. Still, even as he walked on a thin line between life and death, he couldn\'t help but agree that this world was beautiful.
This world wasn\'t like earth. In this world, he could experience so many things that he couldn\'t on earth. It was an experience of a lifetime.
Still, he didn\'t forget his goal. His main goal was to become stronger. His goal was to become a conqueror who could survive on his own.
For that goal, he needed to use the memory fragment and see through the memories of Elder Ren. He had to find out more about Elder Ren, whose history was a complete mystery for him.
Even in the novel, there was no history given for this guy. Eren had thought that it was because the author was careless. But as he lived in this world, he had a feeling that there was more to it.
Something about Eren Ren wasn\'t explained in the novel, which made his character appear out of place.
Was this plot hole intentionally left in the novel? Or rather, was this intentionally ignored in the story that was inspired from this world?
