Chapter 130 – Reynold

Eventually, Nick was woken up by Jenny, and he left the Containment Unit.

When he checked the produced Zephyx, Nick realized that the amount had dropped just a bit.

'If my suffering in the nightmare is what produces Zephyx, it means that I have not suffered as much.'

'I'm sure that the Dreamer is still trying its best to squeeze as much suffering as it can out of me, but the drop in Zephyx means that it just can't make me suffer as much anymore.'

Nick released a sigh of relief and let out a tiny smile.

'Thank you, Julian. You really helped me.'

But then, Nick shook his head and took a deep breath.

'That doesn't change anything,' Nick thought. 'What's the point of feeling good? I'm not a slave to my emotions, and I have an actual goal that I want to achieve.'

'Suffering.'

'Happiness.'

'Both are irrelevant.'

Then, Nick nodded with conviction and dealt with the Zephyx that was produced.
