Kill the Sun

Earth, thousands of years after the apocalypse. Countless technologies and advances had been lost to time as the Specters, horrifying beings with terrifying powers, arrived and destroyed the world. Over the coming thousands of years, humanity had built itself up but always died again. Nobody remembers the past. Nobody remembers what humanity had once accomplished. Now, everyone is living in a world where the Specters reign supreme. ----- 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. Sadly, he had already gained a power from a Specter in the past, which made him ineligible for the position. But then, a mysterious man visits him. And his luck finally turns around.

Chapter 342 – Discussion

'Help me?' Nick repeated in his mind.

 

He became agitated when he thought about that short phrase.

 

Help?

 

Did he even deserve help?

 

'I don't deserve help,' Nick thought as his emotions calmed down again. 'I have done too many terrible things.'

 

'The time of receiving help is over.'

 

'I can only give help from now on.'

 

Nick slowly shook his head.

 

"I don't want any help," he said.

 

Albert raised an eyebrow. 

 

"Want or need?" he asked.

 

"Does it matter?" Nick snapped back with some annoyance.

 

Albert just silently looked at Nick with a worried expression.

 

The more Albert looked at him, the more Nick felt guilty for his outburst.

 

"Sorry," Nick answered. "It's fine. I can manage on my own."

 

Albert took a deep breath but hid it from Nick.
