Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon-Chapter 752 - 750: Prince Zakar’el Eron’Lethe

A Throne

A book

And a beating heart

These three objects would catch the attention of anybody, and it did the same for Corey.

His instincts were not warning him of danger, and he could not feel the presence of any living organism in the hall he was in.

The beating heart.

Corey's attention was entirely on the beating heart because it was extremely unique.

The heart did not beat like usual hearts. Instead, it pulsed slowly and floated with a presence that was ancient... extremely ancient.

Its surface shimmered with liquid gold and dusk colour, along with swirling patterns of ever-shifting runes that was constantly appearing and disappearing. Corey tried to study and analyze the runes, but the runes were extremely strange.

The moment he understood a rune and tried to move into another rune, he would realize to his disbelief that he had forgotten the rune he studied and understood.

This continued severally, and a chill permeated his entire body and soul when he rellzed that no matter what he did, he was always forgetting.

With how unique his mind and soul were, forgetting things was something that was not easy for Corey even if he wanted to forget them.

However, no matter what he did, he was always forgetting the runes he understood.

'What type of power is this?' Corey thought in disbelief.

The heart itself was translucent, as if it was made from the most beautiful crystal Corey had ever seen. Within it was a churning mist of colorless flames.

Instead of arteries, the heart had threads of dark light that twitched faintly, as if in search of a body it could belong to.

As Corey gazed at the heart, his Ears of Omniscience twitched as he heared something different from the heart.

With every beat that he heard, he felt it deep inside his soul and it triggered a feeling of sorrow in his soul.

Every pulse whispered something different.

It was either a name he once knew but pushed to the back of his mind.

A dream he swore to never forget before the apocalypse, but eventually forgot as he went through life.

And his mother's voice.

Corey knew, he completely knew that his mind and body were being influenced by the heart, but it was just too powerful.

Way too powerful for him to fight back.

After obtaining his Cosmic Soul and awakening his Stars of Consciousness, his mind had been enhanced to a ridiculous degree, and he rarely, and he meant rarely forgot anything.

In fact, memories he forgot before the apocalypse were all remembered by him.

However, the heart was making him to recall memories he had pushed deep into his mind.

Caw!

A loud caw echoed in the throne room, and Rhea shot out of Corey's chest. Corey shook the moment Rhea shot out of his chest. He blinked numerous times before looking at Rhea who was flying in front of his face.

She made sure that Corey could not see the heart, and the moment Corey noticed this, he grabbed her and turned away from the heart.

"Thanks a lot. You really saved me there."

Corey smiled, but Rhea slapped his head, stunning Corey.

"Caw."

Rhea pointed at the throne, and Corey frowned.

"You want me to look at the heart again?"

"Caw." Rhea nodded.

"Haven't you forgotten what happened when I looked at the heart?"

Corey asked with a baffled expression but Rhea pointed at the throne once again.

"Caw!"

Corey furrowed his brows, and then he turned. Although he had no idea why Rhea was telling him to turn and look at the heart she just prevented him from looking at, he knew he had to look because of the way she was reacting. He just decided to be careful and cautious of any changes to his mind. The moment Corey's gaze landed on the heart, his pupils constricted. Sitting on the armrest of the throne with its legs crossed was a figure made out of mist, and the moment Corey's eyes landed on the figure, his fight or flight mode activated.

Without hesitation, he jumped as far away as possible from the figure, the throne, and the heart with his own heart beating extremely loudly.

His Genesis Armament appeared in his hands, and Corey's mana was primed to fight at that moment. However, his body was extremely tense.

For a being to stay so close without him knowing sent extreme chills across his

body.

His senses and instincts were so perceptive to the point that even some Immortals would fall short of his perception.

If there was anybody that could appear close to him without even his instincts warning him, then that meant the person was far stronger than him.

So strong to the point that his instincts could not even fathom the level of

danger the person had.

"Hmm... You're... extremely unique... Not exactly what I expected."

Just as Corey was furiously thinking about what to do, the being spoke, and

Corey found himself relaxing.

No

That was wrong.

I'm slowly forgetting why I'm so cautious and wary around it!"

'What sort of power is this?!"

Corey's pupils constricted, and he tried his hardest to recall, to remember, and

to not forget the reason why he's so wary around the strange being.

However, he failed.

He slowly started easing up.

"You have a powerful and unique mind... For somebody of your level..."

... Maybe that's why you were able to look at my heart for so long without losing anything so quickly."

The figure looked at the beating heart beside it, and when Corey realized that he was beginning to calm down because of the strange power of the being, he

quickly asked.

"Who are you? And what do you want?"

"My heart is a heart that remembers everything reality had chosen to forget." "To look upon it for too long is to forget your own name."

"To hold it... is to become something that should never be remembered." The being spoke with a tone that was filled with pain and sadness, but Corey

gritted his teeth and spoke.

"Your name."

The being glanced at Corey, and then a powerful pulse that shook the throne room, space and time, and caused Corey to almost cough out a mouthful of

blood.

"My name is Prince Zakar'el Eron'Lethe... The last prince of the Letherions."
