Chapter 104: A Mistake, A Skill, and That Milky Mounds Again
Tower Manager chuckled again, standing tall, the upper part of her snow-white breasts rising and falling as she laughed.
Nathan remained seated in silence. His once-weary eyes now stared at the Tower Manager with a mix of confusion, anger, and fear. His breath was still uneven, but his mind began trying to piece together the strange fragments that had just occurred. He said nothing, only stared at the woman who, without his knowing, had consumed a black orb—larger than his fresh-sized nut, yet holding thousands of memory fragments.
The Tower Manager smiled gently. This time, it wasn’t a smug or cryptic smile. But a strange smile that felt too soft—too... human.
"You’re still confused, huh?" she asked softly, walking toward Nathan, her smooth thighs brushing against her gown.
She leaned slightly forward, letting her snow-white breasts hang beautifully, then reached out and held Nathan’s hand like a mother comforting her child after a nightmare. "I’ll explain slowly," she said as she gently pulled Nathan along.
Nathan stood up slowly, unable to avert his gaze from the face of the milky mommy throughout the process.
The Tower Manager’s voice changed. No longer the tone of a ruler. Not a robotic system either. But like a mother trying to explain why her child’s favorite toy couldn’t be fixed—and why they had to wait for a new one because child support hadn’t come through yet.
"You’ve lived thousands of lives. I took almost all the memories of your soul, but... you didn’t lose everything," she said gently with a smile.
Her right hand released Nathan’s, then slowly moved to his cheek and caressed it softly.
"I only took the parts that are too heavy for you right now. But I left one. One important memory from the previous cycle. Because the system believes... it will make you stronger."
Nathan said nothing. His mind started to recall memories from the previous Earth cycle. A miserable life—and an even more miserable death. He stood there, mouth slightly open, trying to digest the absurd memories that suddenly flooded him.
