Chapter 773:- "I am not a Good Man, Rin!!"
Chapter 773:- "I am not a Good Man, Rin!!"
"Right now, I need to know exactly where you are being kept in Stardawn." Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"You don't have to give me the exact location. As long as I know the general location, then I will find you." By finding her, he meant tearing and destroying everything until he found her. This means unleashing a calamity that would only stop after finding Rin. "I don't know!!!" She said with a silly smile. "...Aditya
"Sorry, what?!!!" Aditya did not believe what he was hearing from her. Seeing his stunned reaction, Rin looked a little bit embarrassed. "I said, I don't know." She said in a slightly loud tone while looking embarrassed. "This....!!" Aditya opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out. He simply did not know what to ask her at this moment. In the end, he calmed down and realized that since he did not know how she was captured in the first place, he must have assumed a lot of things about her situation. "Look, there are two guards that always keep a watch on me. For years, they are the only person that I have ever spoken to." "Recently, I have tried to talk to the guards and find out exactly where I was being held. Even though I indirectly tried to know where I was being held, I got no answer. The guards knew my intentions and did not give any answer."
Hearing this, Aditya suddenly felt stressed. He began rubbing his forehead with his right thumb while thinking of a way. The Stardawn was about two-thirds the size of the Dying Isle Continent, where he was supposed to find Rin. Yes, he can use his senses to shorten the time that would be required to find her, but that would still need at least 4 to 7 days at the very least, even if he made a quick search in every big city in Stardawn. But who knows, Rin might not be held in a City. She might be held somewhere very remote. It was very possible that the masterminds had used some sort of artifact to completely erase her Aura, making it impossible for others to find her. After all, Aditya could guess from her vague words that she had been held by these people for years now. If no one has been able to find the Goddess in all of these years, then it has to be because the masterminds have hidden her so well, even in this Pocket Dimension World. Even if he could somehow sense her presence, the chances of which happening was less than 0.000001%; how was he supposed to search the entire Stardawn before two weeks? Because from what he knew, her time was very limited. Every single minute mattered. In the six continents, the Dragon Monarch has countless ways to find someone. Even if that person happens to be hiding in a remote village located deep in the mountains, he still has some ways of finding that person. This is because of the connections and networks he has all over the Six Continents. He had access to Alicia's information-gathering network, which had roots in almost every continent. He had his own Shadow Guardians that were spread throughout the six continents. There was also Sasha's Assassination organization. But here, he had no one to rely upon. There was no information network in this world. Even if he brought his men and others here, it would still take them at least a few months to spread their roots all over Stardawn. Not to mention, how much time it might take for them to naturally find Rin's location. 'Is this really going to be the end?' Aditya asked himself. But deep down, he was very unwilling to give up. Aditya was very stubborn about saving her. He won't stop until he has accomplished his goal. "If there is no other option then I will start destroying each of the Seven clans one by one." Rin was shocked to hear this. Looking at his face, she realized that the Dragon Monarch might be very serious about this.
"If that doesn't work, I will start killing every other faction that exists besides the Seven Clans." His face increasingly became colder the more he spoke.
"If that doesn't work, then I will slaughter every cultivator that I see in this world." In the end, his killing intent began leaking out of his body. Although his true killing intent cannot be unleashed in the spiritual world, even 1% of his killing intent was enough to make her sweat. Rin felt very nervous. "Alright!! Alright!! Calm down." She stood up and hugged him.
His face was buried in her bosom.
She began gently caressing the back of his head. This worked as his killing intent began to disappear.
Aditya took a few long and deep breaths to calm down. "Now, there is no need for a genocide." Rin had no doubt that this man would do what he said just now. Although his words deeply touched her as they showed that even at the cost of all cultivators in Stardawn, he still wanted her, she did not want him to walk on this path. Even as a Goddess, she never felt that her life was worth more than the lives of all cultivators. Such thoughts never even came to her mind. 'Aside from my parents, I don't think anyone has ever cared this deeply for me.' 'Before meeting him, I was ready to die. I just wanted to fulfill my curiosity of knowing what my potential future husband would have looked like if things had gone right. But who would have thought that meeting him would change everything?'
Rin looked at Aditya and thought. 'If you say such words, then I won't be able to stop myself from falling for you.' She felt her heart beat with feelings that she had never felt before. "I don't ever want you to be responsible for a Genocide." "I am not a good person, Rin." He said in a soft tone. She was still hugging and was trying her best to comfort him. "There was a time when Aditya might have been very naive but not anymore. Even before I was exiled, the world had shown its cruel side to me." As he spoke, the images of all the things that happened to him before being cast aside started playing in his mind. "My parents stopped loving me." His own parents shunned him which hurt the most. "I became a thing of shame and disgust in my own house and Empire." "When I was exiled to the Dying Isle Continent, I had nothing."
"When I say nothing, I mean literally nothing. Even the clothes that I was given to wear belonged to a poor slave." Rin became concerned as she felt his voice quivering. His voice was shaking.
"I was alone and afraid." She felt something wet on her bosom. It was slightly warm yet wet. "Yesterday, I was the Prince of the Strongest Empire in the entire world, and today, I had become a beggar who was fighting animals for spoiled foods to survive."
"In my darkest times, my adopted father, my butler Watson, and my first wife Julia reached out to me. Even before this, for years, they have been by my side." "When I was a slave to alcohol, they were the only ones who never abandoned me. From the shadows, Alicia, and Riya silently supported me"
"I know how cruel and unkind life can be. I have experienced it." "If there is one thing that I have learned from my experience that would be to cherish the people that have been by my side when I was at my lowest. I care about my wives more than anything else, as they are the only thing that is keeping me sane in this cold world."
"I would go to any lengths to protect them. Even if it meant becoming the enemy of this world itself."
Aditya held her arms and looked at her eyes. His eyes were red. His eyes didn't turn red but were red from something else. "And you're one of those persons."
"Since our first meeting, I have this strong feeling that you're someone that I am very familiar with."
"From our gradual meeting, I have come to appreciate and love your presence."
"You bring positivity to your surroundings. There is no way I would let you die." "You....!!" Rin's entire face turned red soaked in everything that he confessed to her. She then looked down causing her eyes to be covered with her hair. "Rin?"
'If you keep saying such embarrassing words, then I will definitely fall for you.' Rin wanted to disappear but couldn't since he was holding her arms. 'No, I have definitely fallen for him.' It was true. She just accepted the truth. "I am fine!!" Saying that she sat next to him. She didn't dare to look at him yet. Now that she has accepted the fact that she is in love with him, she feels their relationship has changed. She wanted to take things further and confirm their relationship. Though, she was too shy to say it. She wanted to hear those three words from his mouth. 'I love you!!!' Just imagining hearing these three words from his mouth made her grin like an idiot. Aditya noticed a silly grin on her face. It looked like she was lost in her thoughts. "Rin?" He gently called her out. "Yeah!! I am alright!!" "But don't you feel embarrassed by what you said?" "I was just being honest with you." Aditya innocently defended himself. "Anyways, there is no need for a genocide. I think I have a lead for you." Rin changed the subject. She felt too embarrassed to look at him when she thought of her feelings for him. For now, she decided to act normal with him. Hearing her words, his eyes lit up. "What lead?" The way his face lit up with hope made her smile a little. "This happened around 3 to 5 months back. I don't know the exact time since my concept of time is not that good at being held in that place for years now." "The two guards were talking about the Grandmaster." "Who is this Grandmaster?" He asked for more details. "Let me remember his name...!!" Putting her hand on her chin she began to think. "I feel like I remember his name, but at the same time, I can't." Rin felt she almost recalled his name, but something was stopping her. It was like she was just one step away from completing this puzzle, but something was missing.
"I clearly remember his name being something associated with colors." This is the whole reason she even remembered his name—it was unique. "Associated with colors? As if, green, pink, red...!!"
As he said 'Pink', Rin instantly recalled his name. It was as if a light bulb lit up in her head. "I remember now. His name was Grandmaster Pink!!" Aditya finally understood why she remembered his name. "Do you know any other information?" He asked in a hopeful tone. As long as he had some information about this person called Pink or 'Shit,' he would be able to find him very quickly.
"I do vividly remember the guards talking about him being promoted to the position of City Lord." "Aside from that, I don't know anything else. I apologize!!" "It's alright!! Now that I have my first clue, I can finally take some action." "Have you heard of any other people's names from the guards?" Aditya curiously asked. Rin again closed her eyes and tried her best to remember. But nothing seems to come to her mind. "Keep thinking. I am not in a rush. You can tell me during our next meeting." Aditya patiently waited. Rin recalled the face of a man that she first saw in her beginning days of being captured. But she couldn't recall his name as it had been so long. Rin suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Aditya.
"Danna-sama, I am afraid our meeting will need to end here. I won't be able to keep ourselves in the Spiritual World due to outside disturbance." This time, her body instantly faded and the world around Aditya transformed into void. ----------------
