Chapter 1895: Back to the Ouroboros System
Cain could not help but display a wide, genuine smile as he heard the old man’s words. To fight once again for the thrill of living—to experience emotions, excitement, and purpose—was something worth smiling about. However, Cain did not lose himself in the sentiment. His eyes glowed brightly with a golden radiance capable of piercing through flesh and directly into the soul.
"Are you prepared to fight to the very end by my side?" Cain asked solemnly.
Terent met Cain’s powerful gaze without hesitation, nodding firmly as determination filled his voice. "Yes, I am."
"Great," Cain replied simply, satisfied. Those words were all Cain needed. The Flow made it abundantly clear to him that Terent was speaking with absolute sincerity—he was fully ready to put his life on the line in the battle ahead.
"Join your brothers in arms," Cain instructed warmly, a hint of pride evident in his voice.
Terent bowed deeply to Cain, expressing sincere respect. "Hail the Scarlet King," he declared, then quickly moved to stand beside the Sky Sovereign and the other elite warriors of the Scarlet Path.
Only then did Cain’s eyes turn back toward Auramyth and the remaining five Prima Deities of the Endlesslight Continent. Their decision was obvious to him even without relying on his heightened perception. They had chosen to bury their heads in the sand, waiting passively until the conflict had passed. Of course, they would still pay their toll.
"You six shall remain at the border of the sect," Cain stated, his voice firm and commanding. "After handling the situation with the Shadowcradle Continent, I will deal with you."
Complicated expressions appeared on the faces of the six Prima Deities. They had hoped to settle the matter quickly, to ease their anxiety and uncertainty, but now it seemed they would have to endure the weight of suspense even longer.
Cain paid them no further attention. Instead, he turned his focus back to his loyal warriors. His smile returned, wider and more vibrant, as he saw the eagerness reflected in their eyes. The next moment, the communication rings on their hands glowed brightly, and each warrior clearly heard Cain’s voice echoing in their minds.
"Ouroboros Points," Cain announced, his voice resonating through their spirits.
