RETURN OF THE EMPEROR

CHAPTER 210: THE TRUTH

"Rein, you've been in this room for decades, aren't you bored? Why not stop researching the runes you do, however, they are not very useful. If not mistaken, his name was rune-", an old man was sitting in the corner of the room drinking his tea, he was trying to remember the name of the rune.

This old man had short black hair with dark eyes like a ravine, besides he had a face like a 50-year-old.

But if someone thinks that this old man is 50 years old then they are wrong because this short black haired man is someone who has lived for thousands of years, in fact, he can be said to be the oldest person alive today, namely the Zodiac Emperor, Myro Aras.

In front of the elderly Myro, there was a woman who was busy staring at the runes in front of him, there were a lot of tunes around the woman, there was a lot, more precisely almost the entire room was filled with rune paper except for the place where the old man was sitting.

This woman was none other than Sha Rein, Myro's disciple and was known as the strongest rune expert, even all the Emperors agreed that there was no one stronger than Rein when it came to the matter of runes.

"Teacher, the name of this rune I made is the rune of time" said Rein who was too busy paying attention to the runes he had in his hands, not even looking at Myro for being too busy "I can't stop now, this Time Rune is very important! As long as I can complete the Time Rune, then I can go back to the past again".

"Does that matter?" said Myro who drank his tea again "After you go back in time, what are you going to do?".

"I don't know!", said Rein.

Myro looked at Rein strangely "If you don't even know the purpose for which you made it, why are you trying so hard just for this Time Rune?".

Rein who was still busy making runes said without hesitation "I made it just in case, though, if something happens to the teacher in the future then I will go back to the past and change the time that exists so that the teacher can survive".

Myro was a little surprised to hear this, he never thought that this student worked so hard for so many years just for him.

After which, a bitter smile appeared on Myro's face. He shook his head as he looked at the sky that had started to darken through the window of "Rein, changing time was not that easy at all, even if you go back in time, it doesn't mean you can change everything that happens in the future. In the end you don't turn the dead into living just by going back in time. Therefore, if I die then you can't keep me alive just by going back in time".

This time Rein stopped his rune making movements, he saw Myro full of confusion "Teacher, how do you know all that? Did the teacher ever go back in time?".

"Never" said Myro firmly "But I know that one may have to go back in time a thousand times, or repeating billions of years in order to change the person who should have died to stay alive. But the question is, can you endure the pain and despair for billions of years of knowing to repeat time? Even I don't think myself able to endure the pain of going back in time to living billions of years. Rein, can you do all that?".

Rein smiled gently, he said with resolute eyes "When it's for teachers, Rein doesn't mind going back in time to live for billions of years!".

Seeing Rein's assertiveness, Myro could only shake his head and not speak anymore, more precisely Myro also felt that Rein would not do any of that.

...----------------...

When he looked left and right, Cristi knew that he had already returned to the Zodiac Sect from the fight against the evil Myro.

Kristi walked out of her bed and opened the window to find that the sky was dark, and she fell asleep into the night.

He scanned the night sky for a while before muttering "Teacher, I actually passed through billions of years for teacher! This time, I will definitely not fail again!".

...----------------...

Time was already midnight and most of the people in the Zodiac Sect had already fallen asleep, even most of the lights had already been turned off which indicated that many people were already asleep.

Currently Myro is still busy sitting in his study with a pile of paper around him, all of these papers were Myro's plans for the next Zodiac Sect as well as some important matters regarding the training of the disciples and elders.

Zhi Li actually accompanied Myro to work as well, but now he was already asleep at the side table while at work. Myro did not blame Zhi Li, after all he was already busy working as long as Myro left, then he had to gather all the disciples and elders of the Zodiac Sect to help Myro from the Poison Emperor's attack. Therefore, Zhi Li must have felt tired, let alone this was so late that he fell asleep.

Myro took out a piece of cloth and covered Zhi Li's body wearing the cloth so as not to get cold, even though they were cultivators but the weather in this Emperor World was extremely frightening. The weather can change at any time whether it becomes very hot or cold, so it never hurts to be careful.

After doing all that, Myro sat back in his chair before saying "Until when do you plan to stand there? Don't you have something to talk to me about?".

The door of this room was open, the figure of Cristi was seen standing behind the door while bowing respectfully "Sorry to disturb the rest of the master at night like this".

Myro waved his hand "I'm not too tired, however I'm a cultivator so I can't sleep for days without a problem. Besides, instead of resting, I'm more interested in something else, the truth that you're hiding right now. More precisely, the truth that only you, Aries, Madam Sha and myself know is fake!".

Gristi sat in the chair in the room, asking "Master, how much do you know?".

Myro said without hesitation "I know that you seem to have repeated time for hundreds of thousands of times or equal to billions of years, Madam Sha and you are the same person, you are my students, you are my students, and you have a lot of weird abilities".

Hearing this, the gristi was bitter "Doesn't that mean the master already knows all the truths that exist? Why bother asking again?".

Myro shook his head "No, there are still many things I don't know. As long as you fight against the evil Myro, I have actually observed the course of the fight. It seems that the evil Myro and Madam Sha even though they only know of a technique called the Zodiac Sword Stream up to type 2, why are you alone who can know up to type 10? Even that fake me didn't learn it until the 10th type, when he had all the memories of you going back in time for billions of years!".

"It turns out you're interested to know about the matter" said Cristi who began to explain "The story may be a bit long, but I'll tell you everything. Regarding the figure who taught me the Zodiac Sword Stream, he was also 1 among the 2 people who knew about the weakness of the demon contract other than the fake master!".
