Summoning the Holy Sword

Chapter 1149 - Remnant Heart



Chapter 1149: Remnant Heart

“Beings that can use the Door of Akasha’s power and open up the channel to summon Chaos Creatures?”

Marybelle asked, knitting her brows and pondering silence.

“I’m sorry, Your Majesty. I did what I could back then. Logically, Chaos should have been completely sealed. If it was as you described, I think those beings must have been contaminated by Chaos after getting into contact with fragments of the Door of Akasha,” Marybelle said and her expression turned stern. “Your Majesty, I think this is a dangerous sign. For safety’s sake, I think we should destroy all living creatures on this planet in order to not let them be unnecessary obstacles in your operation.”

“Ugh... let’s talk about this again when the time comes.”

Rhode was speechless toward this attitude of hers. Compared to him, Marybelle was a true inhabitant of the Dragon Soul Continent. She didn’t treat Earthlings as humans at all. Besides, this wasn’t her first time doing this and if she had to do it again, experience made progress easy.

Perhaps this deity warden was the true final BOSS for Thomas and rest.

But fortunately for Thomas and the others, they were no longer inside the sacred palace. After ensuring there were no issues, Rhode sent them away by a teleportation spell since this shouldn’t be a place opened for visitation for ordinary people. As for where they were transported to, Rhode couldn’t care less. At the very least, they wouldn’t be brought to the middle of an ocean or uninhabited island. As long as they could survive and return home, Rhode was considered to be doing them a favor. Rhode initially decided to make this group of people disappear from the surface of this world. But now, he needed them to ‘prove’ his identity. If they could explain the existence of his group using science, humans could more or less come to an understanding. Besides, it would also be beneficial for when Rhode transported the entire Dragon Soul Continent to the solar system. With the existence of his identity, it would be relatively easier for humans to accept him and his group.

Of course, out of bad habits, Rhode purposely revealed the truth of what happened 65 million years ago before sending Thomas and the rest away. But he didn’t mention that Marybelle was the culprit behind Earth’s destruction, but specially mentioned that Chaos was the main reason behind it instead. Not only that, but he also hinted at Thomas that if Earth was still unwilling to learn the lesson, it would only be a matter of time before they were buried along with the dinosaur fossils. Thomas and the rest were scared stiff by this statement. They promised Rhode that they would do their best to convince the world, but that wasn’t something of Rhode’s concern, anyway. It would be best if they succeeded. But even if they failed, it didn’t matter. All in all, as long as Rhode seized the moment and transported the Dragon Soul Continent over before Chaos turned into the weather, the strength of Order would eventually overwhelm Chaos. Then, the Chaos fragments would as though be mantises trying to stop a car.

And now, it was time for Rhode to activate the channel and return to the Dragon Soul Continent. It currently wasn’t too challenging for him. Back then, Marybelle and the representatives failed to open up the channel connecting to the Dragon Soul Continent. But this time, Rhode’s group was transported over via a completed and fixed channel. As a result, as long as he used the Door of Akasha to activate the coordinates of this channel, he could easily return to the Dragon Soul Continent.

Not only that, but this trip to Earth was also surprisingly rewarding. Not only did Rhode successfully rescue Erin, but he also found the specific coordinates for transmigration. As long as the coordinates of the Door of Akasha was present, he could bring the Door of Akasha back to the Dragon Soul Continent and use it to replace the Dimension Gate in serving as a transmigration portal. Besides, compared to the method that the former Creator Dragons used to migrate the inhabitants of the Dragon Soul Continent, this was more efficient, more convenient, and safer.

Apart from that, recruiting the remaining subordinates who survived was also an unexpected surprise. Back then, among the representatives dispatched by the Creator Dragons, the death knight was eliminated after being contaminated by Chaos, and the battle angel was killed in the final battle. On the other hand, the two White Elf sisters and some of their subordinates survived. In addition to Marybelle and the subordinates of the battle angel, there were around 200 of them in total. Every single one of them was a formidable being at around level 90 minimally, which was like having an additional group of elites for Rhode. Besides, since they had accepted the orders of the Creator Dragons to come to this world, it proved that their loyalty was impeccable.

But before delving deeper, Rhode had another matter to handle.

“Have you two decided to return to the Dragon Soul Continent with me?”

Gazing at Mini Bubble Gum and Canary, Rhode asked solemnly. After all, they were unlike Rhode, who could be considered to have nothing to worry about, which was why he could choose between Earth and the Dragon Soul Continent. But Mini Bubble Gum and Canary were different. If they were willing to join him in returning to the Dragon Soul Continent, it meant that they had given up on their families, friends, and everything.

“Of course, Leader!”

First to answer was Mini Bubble Gum with that firm, undeterred voice.

“Big Sister and I have had enough. We have no blissful memories of this place at all! We want to follow you to the Dragon Soul Continent, Leader! I’ve made up my mind! Big Sister too!”

“Canary?”

Rhode wasn’t surprised by her response. After all, Mini Bubble Gum frequently complained about her outlandish family affairs and had more than once gnashed her teeth and mentioned that she would dismember her father, his mistress, and their bast*rd son before leaving this place. Rhode had no opinion about that since ‘even an honest and upright official would have difficulty resolving a family dispute’. Besides, this wasn’t his first time hearing this from her, which was why he had no intention of stopping her.

But what about Canary? Could it be that Canary is also willing to make such a choice?

At this thought, Rhode turned to Canary. Upon detecting his gaze, Canary let out a subtle sigh and didn’t say a word. But at that moment, Mini Bubble Gum interrupted.

“Big Sister made the same decision as me, Leader! Why, Big Sister? Haven’t you told Leader that those bast*rds in your family murdered the child the both of you had?”

“What?”

Rhode widened his eyes and stared in disbelief at Canary. Then, he turned grim, extending his hand and holding Canary’s shoulder. Upon sensing his touch, Canary couldn’t help but lift her head and gaze into his wide-open eyes that were so stern and filled with unprecedented wrath. The intensity of his stare forced her to turn away. However, her body had as though frozen into place. At that moment, Rhode’s voice rang in her ears again.

“What exactly happened? Speak to me, Canary.”

“...”

As matters stood, Canary couldn’t keep it a secret anymore. Without any hesitation, she narrated everything that happened to her. This time, she had no intention of covering up the truth any longer. It could also be said that she finally waited for this moment to fall into the embrace of the man she loved and talk about the grievances she encountered. Canary eventually buried her head in his arms and wept quietly. What she asked for wasn’t too much. She had no intention of using the baby to force Rhode into marriage. She didn’t care about worldly judgments. She just wanted to leave the pressurizing dominance of her family and lead a peaceful life with the child she had with Rhode. Even though it might be tough and there would be plenty of unhappiness, she felt like she could handle them all. But she didn’t expect her parents to take drastic measures and eliminate her spiritual pillar. This was something Canary could never accept. If it weren’t for Mini Bubble Gum who stayed by her side, perhaps Canary would have already lost all hope and meaning in her life.

Rhode remained silent as he listened, embracing the delicate young lady and gently caressing her long hair. Rhode didn’t doubt a word she said. He also didn’t think that she would lie to him because he knew that she had always wanted a child. It had always been this way since they started dating. After a couple acknowledged their relationship, they would normally take safety precautions before making love. However, Canary never mentioned anything about it. Whenever Rhode brought it up, she would immediately agree and never spoil the fun by reminding him to use contraceptives, not to mention taking birth control pills on her own. Fine if Canary was an oblivious young lady, but she was too smart to not know about the potential risks. On the other hand, Rhode was always cautious and it was impossible for him to not know what was going through her head.

No matter what was the motivation behind it, Rhode believed that Canary’s love toward this child was genuine and persistent. No wonder she became like this after facing such a mishap.

In the end, the exhausted Canary fell asleep in Rhode’s arms. He stretched his arms and hugged her tightly, while gazing at the tears flowing down from her eyes. He didn’t speak for a long time. After a few moments, he turned to Mini Bubble Gum.

“Thanks, Bubble.”

“You’re welcome, Leader. Big Sister is a really close friend of mine, after all.”

Upon hearing Rhode’s gratitude, Mini Bubble Gum waved her hand in some embarrassment. At that moment, she presented the bashfulness that one of her age should have. But this rare moment didn’t last for long as she reverted to being a delusional brat immediately after.

“But Leader, what do you intend to do next? I say, we should slaughter them all! What do you think?”

“...”

Rhode shrugged at her ‘suggestion’ and remained silent. He was in a chaotic mood right now as frankly, this was the second time that he became a ‘father’ unknowingly. The first time, he didn’t expect his younger sister to leave behind a child for him. The second time, he didn’t anticipate that Canary would be pregnant with his child. However, if Christie were his redemption, this child would be his regret. He didn’t even get to meet this child...

Honestly speaking, the instant he heard the truth from Canary, he had the surging, murderous intention of slaughtering those murderers like Mini Bubble Gum had suggested. As a matter of fact, this wasn’t tough for him at all and could be considered to be effortless. If it was possible, he would rather use tens of thousands of ways to make them suffer and perish in agony for eternity. But...

“Leave that decision for Canary. And no matter what she decides, I will meet her parents with her because that is my responsibility,” Rhode replied.
