Yarra’s Adventure Notes

Chapter 1455: Chapter 241: A Deal

“The world is very small, Kyle,” said Danacus, his voice growing intense for the first time. “If you live long enough, you’ll realize the world is incredibly small, too small indeed. Especially for someone like me with an endless life, this confined world can never satisfy me. Indeed, I currently know only a very small part of it. But as an immortal, I have ample time—if a million years isn’t enough, then ten million, and if that isn’t sufficient, a hundred million years will do. Eventually, I will understand everything about this world, familiarize myself with every corner. At that time, this world will no longer represent a living space for me but a limitation, a prison. I will be eternally trapped within a cage formed by this world, never to find anything novel again. What then?” His voice raised in excitement, “What should I do when there’s nothing unknown left to lose all desires and pursuits, even losing interest in everything? Should I just decay slowly in a cage made up of this world and kill the endless time with a long sleep? No, I refuse such a future. I’ve slept for hundreds of thousands of years and I’m sick of it. When I woke up last time and thought about how even if I regained my Divine Duty and became the principal god of the Death System again, the future would merely consist of slumbering away the time—I had already decided. I will not accept that future. I will exert every effort to break free from the cage that binds me and confront countless new worlds,” Danacus declared.

“That’s a commendable aspiration,” Pannis commented with narrowed eyes, listening attentively until Danacus finally stopped, then nodded in praise. “I must admit, your ambition is unexpected. Hearing your declaration, I can’t help but admire you somewhat.”

“Then why do you still stop me?” Danacus asked. “If you approve of my thoughts, you should cooperate with me.”
