Chapter 228: A True Coward
"So you can feel when your subordinates die as well?"
Katarina looked up at Jason in shock, and she felt a tremor go through her heart when she saw the knowing look on Jason’s face. Katarina just felt the link that she had with her brother shatter to pieces. The only reason something like that would happen was if all of her mana was completely removed from her brother’s body... or if her brother was killed.
Katarina suddenly felt an intense feeling of sadness fill her heart at the realization of what had just happened! Even after everything that she had done to her brother and all the evil that her brother had committed in her name, Katarina still loved him dearly! He was one of the only people that she still cared for in this world, so it was almost too much for her to bear when she realised that he was gone. Katarina put a hand over her mouth to stop a sob from escaping and she fell back to her knees. Jason brought his sword forward and used it to lift Katarina’s head to face him again, and Katarina tried her best to control her sobs as she faced Jason’s piercing gaze.
Jason spoke in a commanding tone.
"I really don’t give a fuck about your sadness now. In fact, the only thing your crying is doing is pissing me off. You have no right to feel sad after all the fucked up things you’ve done. I might not be able to kill you because of that Rune, but there are still ways I can make your life hell if you don’t give me exactly what I want. Now, tell me everything that happened when you faced the Primordial."
Katarina sniffled once more to try and clear her throat, and she hesitated for a few seconds before she finally began to explain in a low, sad voice. She started from when the five Rulers went into the Gate and met with various monsters. They fought off some of the monsters there and were making progress, so they thought that they were going to be able to close the Gate easily, but they had been seriously mistaken!
Before they could even fight against the Green Gate Boss, another Ripple opened up in space and from that ripple, a creature walked out. Its figure wasn’t something that Katarina could explain with words. It was almost like staring upon something beyond human comprehension. She just couldn’t wrap her head around what it was! All five Rulers were affected seriously by the creature’s presence, and when the creature spoke, two of them passed out!
Its voice resonated deep in their heads, and when Katarina tried to explain what the sensation felt like, Jason could see genuine terror in her eyes! It was as if she was reliving that moment all over again, and she could still feel the fear that she felt then! Katarina had to quickly move on and she started to explain what the creature had said. It told them that it was a Primordial and its mission was to prepare the humans for the coming of ’The One Above All’. Its people were on a mission to colonize all of the Primordial Expanse, and they decided that Earth would be their first colony in this part of the Primordial Expanse.
