Chapter 294: The Final Gift

"Die, Rosalind!" the Heroine's roar echoed throughout the Dream Realm.

Thus, Li En saw a star.

The Hall of Heroic Souls was destroyed the moment that man drew his sword.

The instant that blade appeared in the world,

"The sky exploded."

Li En, the bystander, was somewhat stunned.

The moment Lex gripped his sword, he even saw a star explode.

Only at this moment did Li En realize that the outrageous performance in Radiant City before was merely the limit of his own vessel, not the limit of the "Continent Hero."

The "Spatial Burst" unleashed by his sword swing resembled the shattering of dimensions.

Every strike made Li En think of myths and the cosmos, while his opponent, Li En never saw from beginning to end.

No way; the visual effects were too terrifying, with only stars constantly exploding throughout the entire world.

Li En estimated he wasn't "excluded"; he probably vanished in an instant, or at the very least, was completely blinded.

The battlefield instantly became incomprehensible; if this truly represented the level of top-tier combat power, it was simply too terrifying.

Li En couldn't see Rosalind, but the woman's weeping, cries of pain, and screams never stopped.

And the only response to her was the man's silent strikes.

She seemed to be in great pain, yet she remained here.

"Curse... I curse you."

"Heartless man."

"I love you, I truly love you."

"It hurts... it feels good... it hurts."

Is this what Li En could hear?

Li En turned to look; Hela, also "excluded," wore a cold expression.

Meanwhile, Dai Niya kept rubbing her eyes, clearly having blinded herself from the glare.

The light pollution didn't last long, because the woman's screams and curses grew quieter and quieter.

"I loved you too late... fool."

Finally, as this voice reverberated back and forth, Rosalind finally vanished.

The light pollution disappeared; when everything calmed down, only that man remained standing in the void.

He flickered and paused, giving the impression that he was about to vanish.

But did it really make sense to severely injure or even kill Rosalind here? Li En was somewhat confused.

"It makes sense; at least for half a year, she must rest properly."

Lex's calm words carried helplessness and sorrow, yet also a painful resolve—the resolve to truly kill his "wife" if given the chance.

This time, he held nothing back; he truly intended to leave Rosalind here forever.

"Can one get injured in a dream?" Li En was shocked; he had already died here several times.

"Heh, not only can one get injured, but one can die too. What do you think the 'Lord of Dreams' authority of the Owl represents?" This authority of the Owl was naturally not harmless; in ancient times, many powerful beings, believing they had truly died in their dreams, never woke up again.

Seeing Li En somewhat disbelieving, Lex casually cited an example he was familiar with.

"Such existences are actually quite common in this world; aren't those succubi who can change a thousand ways in dreams and suck you dry just that? Believe me, succubi are good, but they harm the body; don't overindulge... uh, sorry." Lex spoke lewdly, but was met with two daughters' glaring looks; he helplessly smiled bitterly, apologized, and then fell silent.

Lex quickly adjusted his emotions, but half his body had already dissipated in the morning light.

Clearly, his further interference with the mortal realm accelerated his departure.

"Within half a year, she shouldn't be able to trouble you; this is probably the only thing I can do now... My darlings, don't look at me like that, don't be sad for me; I've been dead for a long time." Lex's face was first stern, then he smiled cheerfully.

At the very least, in the end, he hoped that in his daughters' memories, he would be remembered as leaving with a smile.

"Although your expressions right now make me somewhat happy, the me of now is merely a virtual personality after the reincarnated soul; I'm already gone."

Seeing that the two girls seemed not to understand, he added a sentence.

"That fellow is the true body. The me of now is like a manifestation he split off, added with past memories."

Fine, the explanation was simple enough; it just created a huge trouble for Li En.

"Hela, come here." He called his eldest daughter to his side and whispered something; Hela's expression became increasingly complex.

After Hela came Dai Niya; the father repeatedly instructed his daughters in his final moments, but did not allow "outsiders" to know.

He seemed to have countless words he wanted to say.

And at this moment, he was clearly unable to hold on any longer.

"Three things; you help me once, I help you once..."

Lex felt a bit regretful; originally, it was truly just two things. He had truly intended to finish off Rosalind right then and there, but in the end, he still failed.
