Kill the Sun

Earth, thousands of years after the apocalypse. A boy with amnesia woke up in the middle of the Dregs, the worst part of Crimson Fungus City. The boy grows up and manages to become strong enough to pass an exam for one of the most prestigious jobs in existence, a Zephyx Extractor, someone that can harvest the powers of Specters. Zephyx Extractors have the power to travel kilometers in seconds, read minds, and destroy mountains. In this oppressive world, they are the only ones who can change their destiny. Sadly, the boy had already gained a power from a Specter in the past, which made him ineligible for the position. His dream was dead. Or was it?

Chapter 384 – Hoard

"I see," the governor said after a while. "A shame."

 

Nick evaluated the governor's answer but wasn't sure about why he had worded it like that.

 

Nick was quite sure that he had illustrated his point quite well, and the governor should have voiced his agreement if he were of the same opinion or voiced his disagreement in the opposite case.

 

Yet, he basically only brushed all of Nick's words off.

 

"I'm sorry," Nick said. 

 

Silence.

 

Nick was just standing near the entrance of the room without moving.

 

He felt a bit awkward, but there wasn't anything he could really do about it.

 

If he ran back to the city on his own, he might come across someone from Anatomy again, and he might get killed.

 

The governor was the one who had brought Nick here, and Nick wouldn't return without him.

 

After all, he didn't want to die.
