Who did not want to live longer?
Ves had seen enough cases of people who did everything possible to extend their lifespans.
Life-prolonging treatments used to be an unattainable dream to him. Even when he managed to get his hands on a few vials of life-prolonging treatment serum, he did not dare to squander them at will, but treated them as precious resources.
The chance to live forever was practically priceless. A lot of old geezers who had managed to make a lot of accomplishments all kept working even harder just to earn another way to extend their lifespans.
Ves knew that he was far too young to care too much about this pressing need, but he was probably the exception rather than the rule.
It was not easy for people to live for hundreds of years more than their natural lifespans.
Only a tiny proportion of humans were powerful enough to earn the huge amounts of merits required to redeem life-prolonging treatments.
