Chapter 1011

~7 min read 1,282 words

"Let me see this final test, how you will choose, Student Bai Ge."

"What, Otto, do you want to cause trouble again?"

Bai Ge's brows furrowed slightly, and the Spear of Subspace pierced a little deeper into Otto's neck; he was already considering into how many pieces it would be appropriate to cut this guy, or simply feed him to the Sky Eater.

He was just worried about whether the Sky Eater would get a stomachache from eating something dirty.

Feeling the undisguised killing intent in the golden pupils, Otto also broke out in a cold sweat; he raised his hands and took a few steps back, indicating his surrender.

"Cough cough! Rather than saying I want to cause trouble, it's better to say this is a multiple-choice question given to you by this virtual world. However, with your intelligence, Student Bai Ge, you should be able to understand it soon."

"…………"

Bai Ge raised an eyebrow; he closed his eyes and sensed his surroundings. Under the authority of the Herrscher of Wind, the thousand winds became his eyes and ears, helping him investigate all the information in this world.

And the result of the perception was calm.

After Kallen crossed the death of her destiny, this virtual world had no changes; time was still moving forward bit by bit, and there were no abnormalities.

"No abnormalities, could this situation be..."

"Oh? You thought of it so quickly."

Otto was slightly surprised, then his lips curled up, and with a punchable smile, he explained the multiple-choice question this world gave to Bai Ge to the confused Kallen.

"This is a world that resets itself with 【Kallen being killed】 as the trigger point, Student Bai Ge. Although you helped the Saint cross the destiny of her own death, allowing her to move toward the future.

But you yourself are trapped in this virtual world."

Simply put, the logout button is gone.

Because Kallen Kaslana will not die, this virtual world will continue to develop, perhaps until the day she dies of old age in the future, when it will reset itself and start the cycle.

In this process, the consciousnesses of Bai Ge and Otto will also be trapped in this virtual world, unable to return to reality.

"How could this be!!"

Kallen could not accept that the price for her gaining a future was that Bai Ge would be trapped in this fake world.

The joy brought to her by just overcoming the fate of death was now gone. Kallen stepped forward and grabbed Otto's collar tightly, and she asked anxiously.

"How can Bai Ge leave this world! Speak quickly! Otherwise, I will smash Judah on your face!"

"…………"

Otto showed a helpless, bitter smile. He was convinced that he had been completely loathed by the Saint in front of him, and he couldn't help but sigh with regret as he answered.

"It's very simple, just start the cycle."

"What?"

"At the moment the cycle starts, this virtual world will reset to its initial state, but the reset requires some time, and this time is the only opportunity to leave this world."

The reset cycle of this virtual world is different from the cycle Bai Ge experienced during the previous civilization.

Back then, he turned back time to the starting point.

However, the reset cycle of this virtual world is "loading a save and starting over." The old world where the three are currently located will be directly deleted/destroyed, and the new world will load a save to replace it.

And at the moment the old world is deleted, outsiders like Bai Ge will get the opportunity to leave.

However, the condition for the cycle reset to start is...

"My... death."

Kallen said this answer in a daze.

"That's right. So if you, Saint, do not die, Student Bai Ge will be trapped in this world. But if you choose to die, you will be trapped in an endless cycle again. The fate you finally overcame will once again bind you tightly."

Otto spread his hands, then looked expectantly in Bai Ge's direction. This was truly his final trick.

Although vicious, it was bound to be very effective.

Because Otto Apocalypse knew very well that the youth named Bai Ge would absolutely never kill the person he loved; that brilliant and radiant humanity was his only and greatest weakness.

If Bai Ge did not let Kallen die, causing himself to be trapped in this virtual world forever, then he would be considered to have achieved his goal.

As for him choosing to let Kallen die...

Otto found that he could not imagine Bai Ge making this choice, because it was absolutely impossible.

"To pull something like this at the very end, you really are an unprecedented bastard, Dog-to."

"Hahaha, this wasn't designed by me on purpose, but the result of your own actions. To be honest, I also feel very regretful, but fate is just that cruel. There aren't that many perfect things in this world."

"My fate, I will decide it myself."

Bai Ge said without changing his expression. Otto was surprised to find that those golden pupils did not waver in the slightest.

This fool did not know that the youth in front of him had been constantly facing choices given by fate for a long time: save or abandon, sacrifice or survive, move forward or stop.

Bai Ge had made these unreasonable choices many, many times. The worst one was that time with the pink fairy lady. If he chose to save her, it would be equivalent to abandoning the current civilization. If he didn't save her, then Bai Ge would lose Elysia forever.

However, precisely because he had too much experience, Bai Ge also found a way to deal with it, which was... choose none of them!

Adults choose to have it all!

If there isn't one, create this choice yourself!

But just at this moment...

"I'm sorry, Bai Ge, I don't want to return to those days of endless cycles anymore. I've had enough of the constantly repeating death endings. I want to live, and in order to let me live, I am even willing to kill you, so..."

Kallen picked up the Oath of Judah with trembling hands and pointed one of the golden spears at Bai Ge.

She spoke of her despair.

She spoke of her craving.

She really didn't want to die again.

This despair accumulated over tens of thousands of cycles was so real, sad, sympathetic, and even desperate that even if Kallen betrayed Bai Ge right now, it seemed perfectly normal.

After all, this was merely a romance of less than two days. If this could be exchanged for an infinite future, then anyone would definitely choose the latter.

However, when she intended to meet Bai Ge's disappointed gaze.

What she saw was the same calmness as always.

"Too fake. Even this Dog-to beside me doesn't believe it."

"Cough cough! Student Bai Ge, that's really excessive."

"What? Do you have an opinion? Or should I go ask Welt and Tesla what they think later?"

"Ah this, there's no need for that..."

Otto shivered. He didn't want to witness what it looked like when stars were shattered; the feeling of being decomposed by a simulated black hole was not pleasant.

Bai Mou snorted coldly, then several Spears of Subspace directly ambushed from behind Otto, pinning this guy to the ground like a hedgehog under the standard of not being lethal, especially in a certain thick-skinned area, where he stabbed a few extra ones.

"Hey! Don't ignore me, I said I was going to kill you!"

Kallen stomped her feet to assert her presence.
