The Witch Hunter System - Chapter 1005

Chapter 1005: Saving the Dying Knights



"You shouldn't have come here."

"Why... Why didn't you just let me die in peace? Why must you make me want to live when I can't be saved? Why must you make me feel this way?"

"Why, why, why...?!"

Tears trickled down the dying Knights' faces as they felt despair. The peaceful deaths they had convinced themselves were ruthlessly shattered by the cold reality of Vaan's words.

Indeed, even if they died, they would never feel content, knowing the nobles lived longer than them. Even if the nobles eventually died gruesome fates, it wouldn't have been done by their hands.

The rage, hatred, pain, and sadness they had accumulated in their hearts wouldn't just disappear with the nobles' death. Even a thousand deaths wouldn't be enough to wash them of their sins, not even a thousand years of cruel torture.

In the Knights' hearts, they all wanted the nobles to suffer the worst fate unimaginable.

After all, they were also aware that they had an infinitely small chance of reuniting with their loved ones in the afterlife. For some, it had been hundreds of years since their loved ones died, and thousands of years for others.@@novelbin@@

Such a long period was enough for a mortal to live several to dozens of lifetimes. It was also unlikely for them to remember their past lives.

As such, whilst living, the Knights were lonely. But even in death, they would still be alone.

However, Vaan's words also made them realize their life's true purpose. Getting revenge on the nobles was never enough.

At the end of this road, only bitterness and emptiness awaited them.

If they could live after their revenge, they would like to continue hunting down similar villains so that others would never have to experience the same pain they did.

Alas, they realized too late.

"Submit to me, and I will save your lives and give you all a chance to exact revenge on the noble scums with your own hands. After that, you can consider how to live. Do you want to waste away the Divine Worlds you bear? Don't you have anyone you want to hand them over to?"

"W-What did you say...? We can be saved in this state? How is that possible?"

Despite Vaan's claim, he realized the Knights wouldn't be able to believe him. They all had their own "common sense" they lived by.

"It's good to be self-aware."

"Bastard...!"

Valefor almost coughed up blood during their exchange. Still, he did as he was told, unleashing life energy from the Profound Pearl of Life. If he didn't, he would have been forced to anyway.

Although the Profound Pearl of Life was a peerless treasure that constantly nourished his body and cultivation, it also brought him a lot of trouble.

If he had to deal with Vaan's bullshit like this every time, he would rather not hold on to it! The field hospital was turned into a sea of life energy after Valefor unloaded a portion of the Profound Pearl of Life's endless life energy.

After the dying Knights absorbed it, they unexpectedly made a full recovery within a short time. Even their cultivation improved by leaps and bounds, shocking them all to no end.

They couldn't help but look at Vaan in a new light-They were full of respect, gratitude, and reverence. This was the new Ocean Master? His abilities were truly beyond everyone's imagination and expectations.

"We thank the Ocean Master for giving us a new lease on life! We hereby swear our loyalty and allegiance to you!"

The reborn Knights quickly dropped off their medical beds and knelt on the ground to express their gratitude and loyalty.

Meanwhile, Valefor grew impatient on the side.

"Are we done here?"

"Yeah, you can go back now."

"Who do you think I am? Do I look like a cheap prostitute you can just call and shoo anytime

you want?!"

"Scram."

Although Valefor had many complaints, Vaan wasn't interested in hearing them. He quickly kicked him through the spatial portal before closing it.

$#&@@%#$&!

Valefor's curses resounded on the other side, shaking the land and sky. Still, he ultimately patted his butt and returned to his previous business after snorting coldly.
