"Woah! I didn't think you would laugh." Mike turned his head at the Sword Demon and asked with surprise in his eyes.
"I am a human if you haven't forgotten." Sword Demon gave him a stern look and said. His words startled Bing Lan for a moment.
Mike slapped his back and said "I was just kidding. I have never seen you smile and you have a pretty reputation of a cold and aloof guy."
Getting a slap from a guy who doesn't know how to control his strength, Sword Demon released the killing intent and said "And, this is why I have such reputation."
"Sorry! I forget to control my strength." Mike bowed down and apologized for the next instant. Sword Demon retracted his killing intent but ended up slapping his head. Mike realized it was payback and could only glare at Sword Demon with hatred.
Seeing this, Bing Lan suddenly let out of laughter.
"Hahaha! You two can't be demons. I'm sorry for doubting you guys."
Mike was startled by her laughter apology. But, he quickly turned his head at Sword Demon and understand a few things. Then, he walked in front of her and pointed the thumb at himself.
"Huh! What demon? You seriously thought there could be a handsome and charming demon like me."
"Of course, if it is from the fox clan or snake clan, they can be incredibly handsome." Bing Lan made a serious expression and spoke.
"What? Seriously? I thought they were counted as the monster beasts." Mike tilts his head in confusion and asked.
"Of course not! There is no such thing as Monster Beasts. There are spirit beasts and demon beasts. Spirits Beasts are the races that do not like human or demon beasts. Since humans make these beasts their pets most of the time."
"That's why spirit beasts are either very powerful or weak. Demon Beasts are almost familiar to the spirits except they cultivate the demon energy. This energy corrupts any mind who cultivates it. That's why they are just the mindless beasts."
"But, the powerful beasts can control their mind and use the demon energy as their weapon. Since demon energy is the most corrosive and destructive energy among other energies. The metal worms that you fought were also the demon beasts."
"But, it is said that the mortal demon beasts can't talk." Bing Lan explained.
"Oh!" Mike nodded his head and took a look at the golden egg.
"So, what do you think? Would it be the child of a demon beast?" Mike asked.
"I don't think so. The spiritual qi is flowing around it. Normally, spiritual qi and demon energy are the mortal enemies. But, we can only wait till it hatches. For now, let's just focus on climbing the tower." Bing Lan shrugged her shoulder and suggested.
"Oh well!" Mike said and sent to his Inner World.
Although he doesn't think the egg needs air, if it hatches all of sudden, it will die inside the system storage. Mike didn't want it to die before knowing what it is.
"So, where is the door to the next floor?" Mike turned his head at Bing Lan and asked.
"We need to climb to the upper ground and there we can find the door to the next floor." Bing Lan pointed her finger at the far-away sky and moved. Two of them looked at each other and follow her.
"By the way, did you all get teleported at the same time?" Mike turned his head and asked. He was anxious about Olive. He knew his heart was telling him to find her soon.
"Nope, some came out earlier while some came out later. I think the person who hasn't come out was Blood Demon King and the guy name Mantle. By the way, they tried to kill Lucas. If it wasn't for Thorn Princess asking for our help, he would've died."
"I surprised that you managed to impress the Thorn Princess by insulting her. Of course, I didn't do it just because of her nor anyone else. Blood Demon King was our common enemy. By the way, those people from Alkiwons should have arrived before me." Sword Demon replied without even glancing at him.
Mike understood his words and nodded his head "Don't worry! I will definitely settle the score inside the tower. And, don't forget he can't use the ability energy inside here."
"Don't be overconfident. He rarely relies on his cultivation. His Golden Spirit can break anything he touches. He is a true demon. When I faced him again, I am sure I will die with my current strength." Sword Demon spoke.
"You are taking this too seriously. Don't worry! I have been doing everything I can to improve my strength within this month. By the way, did you consider my offer? Join me and I will help you search for the Sword Cultivation Technique." Mike patted his chest and spoke with the confidence flashing in his eyes.
"You are not taking the demons seriously at all. Do you know how much stronger they are? Just their physical strength would be enough to crush Martial Kings. Not to mention, they mastery over demon energy and their cultivation." Suddenly, Bing Lan who was seriously listening to their conversation appeared in front of Mike and shouted while clutching his collars.
There were anger, helplessness, weakness, different kinds of emotions.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to offend you." Mike realized that she must have some kind of bad past with the demons and immediately apologize.
"No, it's okay! I lost my family to the demons. They are the heinous and scary creatures." Bing Lan released his collars and shook her head with sadness. Tears were also almost gathered at her eyes.
Suddenly, Mike touched her forehead "Don't judge the entire race because of a single person or a group. There are bad and good in every race. In fact, humans are greedy and evil. But, not all of them are the same."
"Some are guided by pride and arrogance, some are guided by good, some are guided by bad, some are guided by someone else, and some are guided by fate. It is up to you to decide on what to rely on."
At this moment, tears burst out of her eyes, and she continued "Sniff! Sniff! When I was about to be killed, one of the demons saved me while killing his kin. He let me run away. I don't know whether to hate them or trust them."
As she cried, she jumps into his embrace. At this moment, Sword Demon slowly walked ahead and said "In my life, I have only one person that I admire. He was the role model and my goal to surpass. He said I was his nephew but when I checked our family history, I never found him."
"He guided me in the path of swordsmanship. He helped me see the wonders of strength. He let me realize that there are people beyond people, heaven beyond heaven. And, it wasn't just because I was small."
"He had said many things to me. But, the most important lesson he had imparted on me was the simplest one. Trust my heart and move forward! If I feel there is someone worth saving, then I will save. If I feel there are some good people, I will forgive them. If I feel there are some bad people, I will kill."
"That's my life! That's the swordsmanship life. Never care what others say, only trust your heart. Once you learn to trust your heart, your swordsmanship will bloom. The world is a cage, truth is false, strong make the judgment while weak suffer from failure, everything is just an illusion, believe yourself, and believe the sword in your hand."
"Sword Belief is the key to passion, strength, and love. Sword is not just about killing or protecting. It is about life itself. Everything sword tells us is just the fact that we will face in our life. It is just preparing us for our future."
For a moment, time paused for Mike and Bing Lan. They couldn't comprehend what he just said. His words didn't make sense but when they tried to think deeper, both of them realize it made the most sense.
'The world is a cage, truth is false, and everything is just an illusion. Illusion! Yes, this world is just a virtual world created after the war. The time, space, elements, everything is virtual but people born out of virtual things are real.'
'Strong make the judgment and weak suffer for failure. We are just captured in the illusion because we are weak. And, if we can get stronger. We can escape. We can outrun this virtual reality. We can move out.'
Slap!
Suddenly, Mike slapped both cheeks his eyes widen. Sword Demon and Bing Lan looked at him with confusion as Mike started laughing.
"Hahaha-Hahaha! I understand. I finally understand. There is no key to finding the real and virtual. The only way is to get stronger. Only when I can smash the multiverse with the punch, I can break free from this world. Hahaha-Hahaha!"
Bing Lan's eyes twitched after hearing his words. She looked at Sword Demon and asked "Is he alright?"
Sword Demon shrugged his shoulders and said "I don't know what he realized but at least he got the meaning right. As long as we have enough, we can break free from every kind of chain that confine us."
At this moment, Mike looked up and shouted "Alright! Let's become stronger. Let's become THE STRONGEST."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"Woah! I didn't think you would laugh." Mike turned his head at the Sword Demon and asked with surprise in his eyes.
