Chapter 490: Eislyn (3)

Author's POV

"So you've returned home."

"I have." Baeli replied "Why are you still in the novel? The protagonist is dead."

"I have to end it properly now, so...are you satisfied with his death?"

"Of course, now I will get revenge on the ones who kidnapped me."

"And she left..." the narrator said while pulling on his hair "You look like you have a plan, what are you planning on doing now? Move to your other protagonist?"

< I can't I'm breaking one of my rules for this. >

Bora, Terra, and Perun felt it...their soul contract...it ended out of the blue and only one thing can happen that could have led to that result. Perseus' death.

< Who the hell can kill him so easily...?> Perun thought in fear < Not even the great Andrius Thames can kill him easily, his strength is much greater than the 1st rank despite his age, this is impossible! >

< He sent us a letter that he will be out of contact for a while, but it wasn't that long ago. > Terra thought <If he's fighting someone so strong, the fight would be known to at least a good portion of people, but...>

Bora then gave the 2 of them signals and they met up privately,

"Keep this quiet, the longer the better." Bora ordered "Tell that to the others under the soul contract as well...to think he died right after he sent us that letter, we need to keep the morale for a very long time, if the enemy hear of his death..."

"Their leaders will end us once and for all." Terra finished his sentence "Him, Louis, and master Zach are the biggest obstacles for the enemy, with one gone...our winning tide might take a large overturn."

"I'll go, but I can tell you now, 2 weeks at the very best, so we should do the best we can by then." Perun said as he turned to leave "I'm not planning on sleeping then and killing as many as I can past my limits, nothing can be kept a secret forever, 2 weeks and people will notice that he's missing."

"I know." Bora replied "I'll try to keep Jake busy since he will notice that he isn't getting his regular check up calls from the boss, so don't care about your limits, because your wellbeing won't matter if we all die."

"What about his bonds?" Terra asked

"They're maybe going to pretend that he's away as long as they can if they knew," Bora guessed "Or if they don't know...don't tell them no matter what."

*****

Eislyn herself made sure to heal all of Perseus' wounds before heading off to work the plan that Perseus told her about, if the plan were to leak out, his bonds would do everything to make sure that he doesn't die, but if he doesn't die, he will be constantly in danger of Baeli, so he has to die once by her hands, and by doing so, it would soothe her anger and allowed the others to be safe.

She can still remember what he told her and it shook her.

"I will die." Perseus said which stopped her in her tracks back then "And I'm not going to resist or anything, I could either die a painful or painless death by Baeli depending on how nice she is, so Eislyn, your job...is to keep my soul from leaving and keep me in the void. Oh almost forgot, don't stop Baeli."

"But...what's the point, keeping you in the void or not...you're still dead." Eislyn argued "You just gave me a name, you have a child on the way, you...you have family, why will you leave them?!"

"Don't worry, I got a goddess of life and death on my side, besides, I'm the lord of both reality and fantasy, she can revive me."

"Revival isn't possible! Even you know that, otherwise the gods can just revive anyone they want! So a higher power restricted that power!"

"Don't worry, we will meet someone who will lift and break that rule for us." Perseus reassured "Just get her and these 3 people that I'm about to tell you, those 4 will revive me. I'm so lucky that you manifests as a spirit, otherwise, my revival won't be possible."

"How are you sure this person can do such a thing?!"

"I betted on the fact that he care about Baeli enough that he wants to keep her home...she's gone wild beyond his control, and this Bob person seems to have been a burden on his side, killing me once will calm Baeli down and I will request her to spare the others, just revive me so I can come back"

"This...this is too much..."

"And if I can't revive...Zach will take care of Chaos. I would regret that I left everyone, but don't worry, I'm the protagonist, I always do the impossible, it's our thing even if it's cliché." he reassured

"Papa...I can't...why did you tell me this?" she cried

The idea was terrifying to her, he's making all of this based on a bet, and it doesn't look like he'll back off either, her tears wouldn't stop until he wiped away her tears.

"You're the only one who can help me and my loneliness then, so please keep it a secret, because I will also need you." he pleaded "Give my my heaven in the void to soothe my loneliness until I revive, your powers is connected to my powers to manipulate my surroundings, don't worry, I'll make sure you live after I die. My equipments too since I would need them."

The 4 people she will need to get...Zachary West, Elektra, Kenny Leven, and Dabria Silver. The author said that he'll allow the revival and follow the plan, Dabria will know what to do apparently even if she has never done it before after he lift the restriction, but those 4 are needed because there will be a trial to get him back, resurrecting the dead isn't easy.

Nothing comes without an obstacle and hard work, those 4 are also the ones who are capable of completing whatever those trials maybe, his bonds can too, but with their presence on the battlefield, the news of his death will be at least delayed further.
