Limitless Evolution: The Path To Immortality-Chapter 129 Greed Vs Silas [1] - Rage?

"Your family... What are they called? The Skyparks or something? After finding out that they couldn't get you, they took your siblings." She smirked.

Silas' eyes widened for a moment before he narrowed them again.

For a moment there, he almost believed her. She almost had him.

"You and your lies." Silas sneered, yet he didn't attack her immediately.

"What's wrong? Too afraid to get close and personal." She asked before opening up her arms wide.

"Or... Youi think that I'm trying to decieve you. Honestly, I don't blame you. I don't have the best track record when it comes to these things like trust and all the other power of friendship crap you guys are into..." She waved her hand almost mockingly/

"However! When I tell you this, I don't say it with the thought in mind that you might lose your game, but instead, I say it so you can join me." She extended her toward Silas.

"Pft... You really think that I'm going to fall for something like that?" Silas asked, yet the smirk on her face remained.

"Hmm. Even now, you're too blind to see it. Or maybe you're choosing to be blind. Who knows..." She closed her eyes and retracted her aura... Or at least that's what it looked like to Silas through his mystic eyes.

However, suddenly, there was a thick, almost indestructible layer around her body made purely out of mana.

"Oh well, it doesn't really matter right now..." Yet eyes moved toward a particular direction, and when Silas followed her line of sight, he saw someone standing there looking at them...

It was a woman with fiery orange hair and beautiful green eyes, yet, for some reason, her eyes didn't seem as pretty anymore.

"They know what they did." Greed spoke before giving Silas a side-long glance.

Life looked at both of them. It was clear that she had heard everything Greed had said, but her reaction was strange. She didn't look him in the eyes.

No, she didn't look at him at all. Her eyes were averting him.

She radiated with shame. She exuded nothing but dishonesty.

But, it was a stench of dishonesty he should have smelt long before this all happened.

"..."

"Do you smell her shame too, or is that something only your pink haired friend his capable of?" Greed asked with a cheeky smile while tapping her nose.

"..."

"Come on! Say something! Really go in on how much you hate her right now." Greed encouraged with an even more devilish smile.

"Life..." Silas asked, yet she didn't look at him.

He could feel his heart drop at the moment. He felt nausea hit him with so much force that he could have puked right there and then.

"Life... Look at me." Silas' voice was deep as if it was coming from the depths of hell itself and reverberating out of his throat. However, it was filled with something else.

"I wanted to tell you." She muttered and eventually found the courage to actually look at him,

Her eyes shook when she saw him and she continued by trying to explain to him why she hadn't told him, however, everything that came out of her mouth after that first sentence didn't even reach his ears anymore.

Silas couldn't hear her anymore. 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝑛𝘰𝑣𝑒𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

No, it wasn't that he couldn't hear her, it was that he was choosing not to.

He could feel his rage bubbling deep within.

He could feel his muscles become hotter by the second as his mind told him to rip her apart for keeping such a secret from him.

At that moment, he felt nothing but fury.

"And you know what the worst part is?" Greed asked, catching Silas' attention even though he had been blocking out all sound, including Greed.

"They didn't even have to kidnap them the same way they did with you..."

"..."

"They did it legally. They got a paper signed by the second prince and sent a few knights for your siblings. One thing happened after the other, and before they knew it, both your siblings were adopted by the head of the Skylark family.

Your parents can't even see them anymore without supervision, and the only way they do get to see their children is by having your father work for them."

"..."

"Did you know, your mother and father can only see your siblings once a week? Hell, even if they want to see them within that time period, your father has to work his off every single day to make sure the meeting actually happens." She explained while circling around Silas who was still looking at the ground.

Right now, he was trying to control himself.

He was trying to keep it inside for as long as possible.

That day against the assassin guild's leader, Silas had awakened something that he had buried deep inside him, and when one awakens something, it is hard to bury it just as deep as before.

After all, it took him a little over 7 years to do it in his past life, so it would definitely take more than a few days to do it in this life.

"I heard your father exterminated an entire village under their order. I wonder if he was willing to do such a thing? When Death told me about him, he seemed like an honorable warrior. Never would I have thought he'd kill hundreds of innocents without batting an eyes." Greed thought aloud while tapping on her lips with a curious expression.

"Of course, he created a hellspawn like you, so it's possible, right?" She asked, but Silas didn't look up at all.

It was hard to maintain control in a situation like this.

It was hard to remain sane in a situation like this.

It was all his fault. Or at least, that's how he thought of it.

If he had been kidnapped, none of this would have happened.

It would have been the same, no? Either way, to his parents, he's dead. They already had to suffer the loss of one of their children, and now Greed was telling him that they had to suffer another?

"You're lying." Silas spoke with a cold and emotionless tone, yet he didn't move his eyes from the ground... As if he was too afraid to look up and into Greed's eyes just to find out that she was telling the truth...

He was afraid of the truth.

He thought only one thing in life scared him, and that was himself... But, that wasn't true, was it.

Because right now, he was terrified.
