Legacy Of The Betelgeuse

Chapter 179 – Episode 179: A Path To Choose. (2) (End Of Volume.2)

Ivonna smiles and nods then Becker scratches his nape.

"Sadly I have to go now, I'm super exhausted and need to get some sleep. I will see you both later, bye!"

We both nod and then Becker leaves the house. I look at Ivonna and tilt my head.

"Have you told them about what I asked?"

Ivonna shakes her head.

"I'm planning to see them personally right now to tell them that, so I should get going now."

I nod and then Ivonna leaves the house. Not long after Ivonna leaves the house, I also leave to meet Hacal and give the letter to him.

I'm at Hacal house and he looks very happy when he sees me. Hacal then sits in front of me.

"So?! Have you sent the letter to them?"

I smirk and nod then grab the letter from my inventory. I put the letter in front of him. He immediately grabs it and unwraps the letter. He reads the letter with tears in his eyes. He covers his mouth that is trembling because he's holding his tears. I look away so he can get some privacy. I keep hearing him sniffling while he reading the letter.

Hacal clears his throat and looks at me.

"Thank you, Trevor. This letter really means everything to me…"

[Hacal's fourth request (Completed)]

[Hacal's dream has finally come true, thanks to you, Hacal know that Leonia and Hermia are doing fine and living peacefully]

[Hacal is very grateful for what you did.]

[Affinity towards Trevor increased by 20%]

[Hacal Augustus (50%)]

Hacal's expression changes in an instant and staring at me.

"So, do you know who did those things to my family?"

I nod and sigh.

"There's something that you need to know first…"

Hacal nods so seriously. I'm massaging my eyebrows and looks at him.

"Leonia, your wife. She was pregnant with her second child when she died…"

Hacal is furious and breathing heavily. He slams his hands on the table and destroys the table. He looks at me so furiously.

"Tell me, who killed them!"

I take a deep breath and nod.

"The mercenary group. The Headless Cult…"

Hacal then runs toward his room and grabs his sword. I'm surprised to see the sword for the first time. It's a legendary sword [Reginal's Sword]. He's rushingly wearing his gauntlets and armor but then I stand up and stand in front of him.

"What are you doing?"

Hacal is furrowing his forehead and looks at me with disbelief.

"What do you mean what I'm doing? I will kill them with my own hands!"

I shake my head.

"No, you're not going anywhere, Hacal…"

Hacal then grabs me on the collar and looks at me with anger and hatred.

"Stay away from me!"

I sigh.

"If you do this, you won't be able to see them, Hacal. You will never ever be able to see them if you go out there and kill all of them. Do you really want that? Don't you want to meet them in the Land of Sigrid?"

Hacal is furrowing his forehead and looks at me with confusion.

"What do you mean?!"

I tell him that if he killed them, he won't be able to ascend to the Paradise City and will be reborn as someone new. He won't remember anything about Leonia and Hermia and even if he's living with so many good deeds in his second life, he will be living in the Paradise City with his new family and his new loved ones.

Hacal is clenching his fists and lowering his sword.

"What am I going to do then? Do nothing?"

I nod.

"Yes, you're going to do nothing. But I will be the one to kill every single one of them in your stead instead. I promise you, I will kill all of them and bring the head of the culprit that killed your wife, your daughter, and the unborn child of yours and Leonia. Let me do this for you so you can live this life and do so many good deeds until you die and you will meet them up there."

Hacal is looking at me with disbelief.

"You're going to do this? Just for me?"

I nod.

"I will."

Hacal then grabs my arms and cries.

"Thank you.. and please… bring that guy's head here…"

I nod.

A notification appears.

[Hidden Quest: Hacal's Revenge (Updated)]

[You promised Hacal to find the culprit for him, bring the head of the person who killed Leonia and Hermia to him. He trusts you more than anyone, do not let him down.]

[Reward: Hacal's Legacy.

[Yes]

Hacal is calming down and then I help him sit on the chair. I look at him.

"Stay here, and wait for me."

Hacal sighs and nods.

*Ding!*

Ivonna is messaging me that everyone is gathering inside the house, and they're waiting for me to show them the way to the Land of Sigrid. I reply to her that I will be there immediately.

I look at Hacal and put my hand on his shoulder.

"I'm going now…"

Hacal looks at me with worries and nods.

"Be careful, Trevor. If you failed, I will go there on my own and take my revenge."

I nod with understanding.

"I know that, that's why I will be careful so you don't have to do that. I'll see you later, Hacal."

Hacal nods.

"Good luck out there, Trevor."

I leave his house and hurriedly go to our house. I enter the house and I see Kingstar, Diamond, Lothair, Ivonna, and Aspen are gathering around in the living room, they're looking at me with excitement. I walk toward them and sit next to Ivonna.

I clear my throat.

"I'm already saved the location, so I can open the portal for all of us to go there."

Kingstar smiles and nods.

"Thank you, we really appreciate it, Trevor. I honestly never thought that you would bring us there, no, I even thought that you would never tell us the location even if you know the location. I guess I'm wrong and I'm sorry for still doubting you."

I scoff and shake my head.

"It's fine, I don't mind that."

I stand up and nod.

"Let's go."

They're all nodding and looking at me with big smiles on their faces. I open the portal and everyone immediately enters the portal then I enter the portal after them.

We are in the Temple of Gloom and they're confused and suspicious with the place. They're looking at me with confusion. I just smile and shake my head. I convince them to wait here until midnight since the building won't be visible during the daytime. I can tell that everyone is being skeptical about this except Ivonna, but then they just go with it and wait until midnight.

We are talking while wasting time until midnight, then the mist is disappearing and the moonlight is lighting the area. They're surprised and can't believe what they're seeing. The building is forming in front of us and everyone is looking at it so seriously without even blinking their eyes. When the building is fully formed, we are walking toward the door.

I'm pointing at the door and tell them to open it. None of them are able to open it and they're very confused, then I tell them to use the [Hero] title they got from the invasion. Kingstar put the title on and then he tries to open the door again. The door is opening and they're surprised and hum with understanding.

I look at them while crossing my arm.

"You guys can offer your blood to the white flames around the altar over there. Once you have offered your blood, you will be teleported to a room with a gigantic golem in there. You don't have to worry about that because that golem is a guardian that will prevent anyone from entering the Land of Sigrid if they don't have the [Hero] title on them. So make sure all of you wearing the title before entering."

They nod with understanding. I clap my hand and look at them.

"Alright, you guys have some fun in there, and enjoy the Land of Sigrid for as long as you can."

They're looking at me with confusion. Ivonna tilts her head.

"You're not coming with us, Trev?"

I shake my head.

"No, I have already gone there on my own earlier. So you guys can go without me. There's a quest I got from my mentor and I need to do it now."

They're humming with understanding and then I look at them.

"Good luck finding a mentor, and have some fun, guys. You all will be amazed."

I smile and close the door. I'm leaning on the pillar waiting until they teleport to the Land of Sigrid.

The building is glowing and then it dimming immediately. I put my [Hero] title on and then open the door. They're already gone and now it's time for me to do my job.

[Exclusive Title "Hero" has been removed]

[Exclusive Title "Indomitable" has been equipped]

I'm tightening my gauntlets.

"I'm sorry, guys. The reason I sent you all there is because I need to do something bad, and I don't want any of you to block the path I choose…"

I look back and sigh.

"You're going to be very pissed when you're back, Aspen. I hope you can't find the culprit behind the extinction of the Headless Cult…"

I close the door again so slowly.

"Have fun in there and stay as long as you guys want…"
