Chapter 82: Adam’s Indifference

"Your eyes see through all life. Your words decide who lives and who dies."
"A single finger from Lord Zero can crush worlds! You are the law of the universe!"
Zero did not speak. He simply kept drinking, his face calm.
One more soldier spoke louder than the others, trying to outdo the rest. "To die under your hand is better than to live a million years in peace. May the next planet learn to bow before your shadow!"
The air grew quiet. Zero slowly turned his head toward that last soldier. The soldier froze, sweat rolling down his back.
Then Zero gave a soft smile.
