The Bored Immortal
chapter-494-30041322

"H-Half? You mean...I am half the person I am?" Viktor felt it quite absurd and strange as he tried to understand what this meant.

Seraphina cupped his face and said in a reassuring tone, "It's not as simple as that. Even though I can't really understand how this is possible, you don't have to worry about anything. If things were really bad, you would have known it already, don't you think?"

Viktor held her hands as he slowly nodded, "You are right. I never felt anything was out of the ordinary all this time except for this strange emptiness which I think is because of my missing memories. But...where is the rest of my soul?"

Seraphina sighed as she said, "The only way we can find that out is if you manage to regain all your memories."

Viktor thought about the Bloodborn Tournament as he said, "I have a way in mind, but I am not so sure about it. All I can do is try."

Seraphina hugged his hand as she said with a soft smile, "No matter what you need, I will always be here for you. You can come to me anytime you need my help."

Hearing her words, Viktor remembered that she won't be coming with him, making him feel dispirited.

He couldn't help but ask, "Is there no way you cannot come with me? I would like to introduce you to so many people. They would be thrilled to meet you."

Seraphina firmly pressed her lips together as she clutched his shirt and said in a weak voice, "I really want to go with you, but...you know I cannot leave my realm alone. This realm and my daughters need me."

Viktor let out a heavy sigh, understanding where she was coming from. He knew she had a lot of responsibilities to bear, unlike him.

Seraphina felt even sadder seeing his expression and gripped his hand as she added in a spirited voice, "But I will definitely come and visit you soon...once I take care of some things here. You also can come and visit me whenever you want. This realm will always be open to you, especially since you saved us."

Viktor was happy to realize that things might not be so bad after all. But suddenly, he grimaced as he felt a crushing weight in his mind, "Ugh!"

"Azu!" Seraphina was frightened when she saw Viktor suddenly losing his footing as she caught him and saw him clutching his head as if in pain.

"Azu, what is happening?!" Seraphina couldn't find anything wrong with him other than the fact that his odic aura was flaring up.

However, unbeknownst to the two of them, a seven feet tall figure revealed himself in the skies above.

Heavy metallic dark armor adorned his body with two long mystical swords on his back. Dark golden light was flaring from his eyes beneath his menacing metallic helmet.

The Spirit Guardian saw Seraphina trying to help the man in her embrace. But he simply raised his hand as a glowing red fruit manifested on his palm.

He extended his arm forward as the Fruit of Youth flew into the skies, disappearing into the distance.

His gaze then landed on Seraphina as he mumbled in an emotionless voice, "Your daughters are safe, Tifana...as promised."

The next moment he simply turned around as the space before him flickered along with his entire being disappearing away.

Viktor opened his eyes and stood up slowly as soon as he felt that crushing weight fade away.

"What just happened?" Viktor mumbled, wondering why he was experiencing these strange things recently. The first time he felt the same thing was when he was walking beside Yannah.

"Azu, are you okay? Are you hurting anywhere?" Seraphina was relieved to see that Viktor was no longer in pain and was puzzled, wondering what suddenly happened to him.

"Yea...yeah, I am fine. Everything feels fine but this is not the first time this happened," Viktor said with a bewildered look.

Seraphina nodded, knowing that he experienced the same thing back when he was with Yannah. Strangely enough, she sensed something inexplicable at that time.

However, her eyes suddenly widened as if she sensed something.

*Rumble*

Viktor felt her attention suddenly shift but then his brows pulled together when he felt the earth under him shake. It was more like something powerful was trying to come out.

"I-It cannot be..." Seraphina suddenly mumbled in disbelief as she looked behind.

Viktor was confused by her reactions, but suddenly, he noticed something strange. Ripples of powerful yet pure odic force suddenly charged out from beneath the earth as they spread in every direction, revitalizing everything they touched.

Even Viktor felt his blood getting revitalized as these ripples of pure odic force passed through him. He could feel his blood shaking in vigor and excitement.

The flowers and trees, which previously looked a bit dull, suddenly retained their original shine as they transformed into their most beautiful forms.

"I knew it...The Hallowed One has listened to our prayers..." Seraphina mumbled with tears in her eyes.

"Sera? What are you talking about?" Viktor asked, feeling even more puzzled by what was going on.

Seraphina turned around with tears of happiness as she excitedly said, "It's our Immortal Spirit Guardian. He has answered our prayers and restored the Fruit of the Blessed One!"

"Ehh..." Viktor was baffled, hearing her words. So did he just go through all of it for nothing? But thinking about it again, it was far from nothing.

In an unknown realm, a seven feet tall man with a large body frame was walking through a dusty street with small shops on either side.

Only a dusty black cloak was covering him from head to toe, making it hard for people to get a good look at his visage except for his white beard.

Only his sturdy body would catch the attention of anyone passing by him. But other than that, he only appeared as some ordinary man walking aimlessly.

A bunch of drunk men were chatting with each other when one of the men bumped into this tall seven feet man, "Hey! You dare hit me, you piece of--"

The man swallowed his words upon feeling something that shook his very soul.

"Ehehh, brother, don't worry about it. I wasn't looking where I was going," The man awkwardly chuckled, though this tall man didn't even stop and simply continued walking as if he didn't even hear him.

The cloaked man continued walking till he stopped after reaching the top of a cliff and simply stared into the endless horizon.

However, his gaze shifted when a frail hand grabbed his shoulder as the voice of an old woman sounded from behind, "Where did you go this time, Azreus?"
