[Chapter 55] Kate – Confronting Kara
-----------------------------
Withdrawing stealthily, Kate left the Great Hall to climb to the roof. She spotted Kara admiring the rising lanterns. She’s not the type to mingle. Kate took a deep breath.
“What does my lovely pupil wish?” Kara asked as she neared.
“I’d like some help.” Kate declared flatly. Kara’s tail twitched with interest. “When Silver and I returned from the Darklands, we hated your guts to our core…” Kara didn’t bat an eyelid, but her grin widened. Keep cool, keep cool. “Since then, we spoke to Sars and Legonas. To be honest, some of it shocked me…”
“We discussed together afterwards. While Silver might have found some peace, I haven’t. I need more. Sars claims you took a liking to us. Is that the truth?”
“Silver is the clone of a legendary hero, raised by another hero. That’s the best start you could dream of.” Kara looked at her sideways. “In comparison, what’re you? An orphan from nowhere. Sure, you’ve above-average abilities backed by hard work, but can’t you see the difference? You’re already two years older. Do you think that gap will shrink?”
“On a whim, I decide to give you the strength to survive… and maybe stay together.”
“Yes, I pushed you harder, but the training was the same. Silver’s talent simply made it easier for him. Have you not noticed how he holds himself back around you?”
He does? She’d sometimes suspected, but… That must end.
“Also, aren’t you forgetting Arther Bard was a summoner? Silver hasn’t even begun exploring this side of his potential.”
“If you can’t overcome your resentment and accept the renown of being ‘Kara’s disciple’, you’ve no chance of keeping up. You’ll either drag him down or watch him ascend while withering away.”

Kara got up, “In the end, I gave you an opportunity. Make of it what you will.”
“Thanks.” Kate said to empty air. The immortal had leapt away. She’s so aggravating.
Kate sat contemplating. ‘Dragging Silver down’ isn’t an option. There was still much to process, but perhaps she too could come to terms.
Above, phoenixes left their perches on the Helix and circled down. The burial is beginning soon. They’d light the path to the Tomb of Legends. It was time to grieve the man who’d rescued her long ago.

Peerless Hegemon
Warning: Can be quite tearjerking and depressing (or so others say). If you are weak to that and hates that kind of thing, then this story is not for you === Ye Feng lived two lives in one lifetime. First, he basked in the light of Righteousness, becoming an idol of peace and justice. Second, he trod the mired path of the Darkest Path, becoming an object of fear and death. One lifetime, Two Identities, countless experiences, still without purpose. A meaningless existence. An empty husk. In his selfishness of wanting to fill the void in him, he became the catalyst that destroyed Reality. He now controlled everything, ultimate power, uncontestable by none. But he cast it away, to be reborn anew. With a new name and a family, his goal was to understand, his place. To understand how to no longer feel empty. With his family consisting of a Reincarnated Twin Sister and Parents with inscrutable pasts, his desire was not that of grandeur. In this lifetime, he wishes not to hold power, not to gain eternal life, nor control of everything, he only wishes to live, and hopefully look at sunrise with a smile on his face. === Disclaimer: The story focuses on the Main Character’s emotional and personality growth. He is someone who is, obviously OP in some perspectives but almost crippled in others. He is not soft and does not spare anyone because it is “Bad” so expect that there would be genocide and some bloody encounters. I want this instead of just the MC’s search for life and its complication. Where Philosophy and values exist. A story where every action has proper consequences, and not everything can be conquered with a single punch (unless it can be, no need for an unnecessary complication if it can be avoided). Further Notes: This is a story that will gradually increase in word counts and become Chunkier as it progresses and will almost never be below 2000 words, but if the word count will only lengthen the chapter at the expense of a finished tale, it could and would be cut off before 2000 mark), give it a try, it won’t disappoint (I hope). And if by chance that you like it, giving a good Rating and Review will be encouraging to me and possible readers. Schedule: Monday and Friday If you want to read ahead and/or support me to creating this story, you can do it through my Patreon (link below the next chapter button.) This is also a rewrite of this: Peerless Hegemon [OLD] | Royal Road
