Chapter 2372: Fusion of star and ego
"My King."
Leonidas performed a deep bow, lowering his head as he gazed upon Cain with unwavering respect and devotion. His posture was flawless, carrying neither hesitation nor pride—only loyalty.
Cain focused on the man before him and nodded slowly, admiration evident in his eyes.
From the first moment they had met, Leonidas had been someone who earned Cain’s respect. He had endured a horrific curse that slowly devoured his memories and rationality, threatening to erase his very identity. Most would have fallen into madness or oblivion under such an affliction.
And Cain helped the man overcome the curse; his rise had been nothing short of meteoric.
His Astral Rebirth cultivation had already reached the absolute limit of the ArchDeity Rank. His Ego Eternal Path of Power was nearing the threshold of the limit of Mind and Soul As One, and his Resurrección was among the most powerful Cain had ever witnessed. Combined with his Alpha-Omega Overgod Treasures, Leonidas could even crush Champions of the Root—a truly astonishing feat, given their immortal bodies and absolute defenses.
Solemnity and sharpness filled Cain’s gaze as he finally spoke.
"Leonidas, I summoned you because I have a way to make you stronger," Cain said calmly. "A way to help you transcend the limits of the Six Sacred Races."
Leonidas’s eyes widened instantly. A fierce thrill surged within them, accompanied by an almost uncontrollable desire.
He was powerful—there was no denying that. But it was not enough. To stand against the Heart of the Root, to survive the coming war, he needed more. Far more. If there was a way to obtain that power, he would take it without hesitation, regardless of the cost.
This war was for the fate of the entire universe.
There was no price too high.
