Chapter 378 - Suicide Is The Only Way
Chapter 378 – Suicide Is The Only Way
Ning didn't know what to think at the moment. He hoped to keep everyone away from the fight he had with Jha'Akim, but in doing so he could be dooming the entire world to a series of tragedies that included the people he was intending to keep away from him.
Hyesi, Anya, and Ely; he wanted none of these three to meet with Jha'Akim, but he desperately needed them to do exactly that.
His want and his need were the exact opposite, so it was getting too hard for him to wait any longer.
He only had to wait for 5 minutes longer, but the time it took felt forever to him. He felt stressed as he had never before.
He was not only worried about the 3, but he was also worried about what he would do after he was done gathering the energy.
He didn't have any idea how he could possibly beat someone that was so much stronger than him. The only way he could even see himself doing something like that was by…
"I see," he thought. "It's time to kill myself, isn't it?"
That was the only way he could do anything. If he killed himself, exploding his body and soul at the right time, he could catch Jha'Akim off-guard and quite possibly kill him too.
He got a little sad when he thought about it, but given that he had a new body waiting for him, he was determined to do so.
"Alright, I will do it," he said to himself with determination in his eyes. He waited a few more minutes and talked to Ely.
"Are you sure you will be fine without a body?" she asked. "What if something happens and you go into those years-long hibernations like you said you did the first time?"
"No, that won't happen," Ning said. "That only happens if I don't have enough mental strength to handle something. As far as I know, killing myself will induce a lot of mental pain, but not enough."
"If you are sure, then I'm okay with that as well. Since you have a new body, you will be fine," Ely said to him.
"Yes, I was thinking of the same thing," Ning said.
He told the idea to Anya and Hyesi as well while they were out searching for any hints of Jha'Akim.
"If that's a solution, master, then I don't see any problems with it. Although, are you sure he can't handle it? From what you said, his physical body is quite strong," Anya said.
"It's strong, but not as strong as mine. If I can catch him and explode on top of him, nothing of his should remain," Ning said.
"Well, you need to be absolutely sure, master. If you destroy your body and he still doesn't die, I don't know if we will be able to handle him," Anya said.
"Don't worry. I will ask the system if that is possible or not first," Ning said.
"Oh, that eases my heart a little," Anya said.
"Inikaka!" Hyesi called him.
"Yes?" Ning asked.
"How much longer do you have?" he asked.
Ning asked the system the time remaining and told him, "a little over 3 minutes remaining."
"Good, I will try to hold out for 3 minutes then," Hyesi said.
Ning's eyes suddenly changed to worry when he heard that. "Do you mean that he…"
"Yes, he's here, in front of me," Hyesi said.
"Are you sure?" Ning asked.
"White guy in a white robe with a massive wing behind him. Plus the aura he is giving off is impossible to miss," Hyesi said.
"Yes, that should be him," Ning said in a serious tone. "Listen, don't try to engage if possible, but… absolutely fight him if need be."
"I will do so, Inikaka," Hyesi said.
"Hyesi…" Ning said with a pause. "Please don't die."
"Haha, don't worry Inikaka, I will live longer than you."

Hyesi ended his communication with Ning and flew towards the figure he was looking at currently.
Jha'Akim too was curious and looked at Hyesi with some weird expressions.
"There are more Spirit Transformation realm people in this world now? Has the information about Origin become that readily available now?" he asked.
"Only Inikaka knows about it, but he shares the information with us," Hyesi said.
"Inikaka? What's that? Is that— Oh, it's the guy I just left, isn't it?" he asked. "How did you know I was coming here?"
"A coincidence, but it doesn't really matter right now. What matters is that I stop you from being any further nuisance to my Inikaka. For him, I will kill you now," Hyesi said and took off his clothes.
Despite being old, his body was in the best of shapes with his dark skin shining in the sunlight.
"Not only are you in Spirit Transformation realm, but your body is strong too, isn't it? But that doesn't mean you can win against me," Jha'Akim said. "I am in a bit of a hurry, so don't mind me if I don't stick around to entertain you."
Jha'Akim moved at incredible speed and appeared in front of Hyesi, catching him off guard. He punched Hyesi directly on his face and sent him flying away.
Hyesi flew back a couple of hundred meters before he stopped. A line of blood was dripping from the side of his lips. He moved his head to the side and spit out the blood in his mouth before wiping the remaining blood from his lips and chin.
"Is that it? I thought you were supposed to be stronger," Hyesi said. "I never thought the biggest and baddest person in the world would hit like a little girl.
"Ohoho! You've got quite a little mouth on you, don't you?" Jha'Akim said. "You want to see stronger punches? Fine, I shall answer your imploration."
Jha'Akim's muscle started spasming as it got bigger and bigger. it grew to be bigger than Hyesi's own thighs until it looked like the arms of a gorilla.
"You shall feel my true strength now then."
