Alpha Reborn!

Evan of the past wasn't interested in history and didn't care much about learning about the events that took place in the past. However, even he knew about the event that happened 13 years ago, which had initiated the manhunt for the Cosmic Crusaders that has been ongoing to this day.

Evan just didn't know that Vera was a part of the group that had caused the ShadowFall Calamity; However, he knew who Vera was because of the visions he had last night that let him reexperience his past life and because of these very visions, he knew that Vera couldn't be left alive or thousands of innocents lives will be massacred at his hands in the future.

Thus, he had killed him ruthlessly without letting his emotions or humanity hold him back.

Evan's mind raced with thoughts as he justified his action.

'It's fine like this. I took a human life, but it wasn't the wrong thing to do. Vera's death is a good thing.'

Evan knew that Vera was supposed to cause unbelievable damage to the empire in the future, but now that he was dead, that event wouldn't take place.

No one except for him knew that Vera's death had saved countless lives.

He was fine with the way things were.

After all, he didn't do it to be recognized as a hero. He did it out of the goodness of his heart!

Lirian turned to Evan and asked, "Is this your first time taking a life?"

pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ Surprised, Evan replied, "How did you know?"

"I can see it in your body language," Lirian responded.

Evan looked down and noticed that his hands were trembling. Honestly, he felt shaken up, but his reaction wasn't as bad as an average person's. After all, although he hadn't killed a person in the past sixteen years, he had killed quite a lot of mad people who had kidnapped his pack and wanted to experiment on them in his past life.

The Evan of the past didn't think he was capable of taking a person's life, but the Evan of the present had done it, and now that the adrenaline rush had died, his body was instinctively reacting to it.

"It's never easy to kill a fellow human being," Lirian patted Evan's shoulder. "But it's important to remember that sometimes we have to make tough choices in order to protect ourselves and others. And this was one of those times. You did nothing wrong. So don't feel guilty or remorseful about killing Vera. That guy can't even be considered humane. Just think of it as you have killed a monster."

Evan nodded softly.

'Vera is the first villain I have killed, but he won't be the last. I can't be weak-hearted anymore.'

Evan hardened his resolve.

After all, there were many villains in the Black Eye Galaxy that he needed to kill to protect himself and his loved ones.

'I shouldn't try to be the dark knight that thinks that killing his enemies is wrong and would make him a murderer when I need to become the reaper that kills anyone that deserves to die!'

'This is the only path ahead!'

The second that thought crossed Evan's mind, his hands stopped trembling.

Lirian looked at him and felt as if Evan had suddenly matured.

"It's good that you understand," Lirian patted his shoulder twice.

And then he said to him, "Let's get out of here."

Evan shook his head at him.

"We can't go back the same way," he replied to Lirian in a low and serious tone. "We don't know how many more cosmic crusaders are there back in the forest. Fighting Vera had been grueling enough; if we stumble upon a group of Cosmic Crusaders on our way back, we might not make it out alive."

Lirian chewed on his lower lip out of habit. He felt nervous as he knew that Evan was right.

Cosmic Crusaders were like insects. If you see one of them, there's bound to be more around!

Lirian said to him, "No matter how hard I think about it, we have no better choice."

"Wait! Let me think. I might have a way."

Evan looked like a person lost in deep thought as he searched his 35 years of memories for a solution.

His expression was pensive for a moment before he spoke.

"Actually, we do have one! Follow me."

Evan strode purposefully towards the wall behind the arena inside the cave, and Lirian hastened to keep up with him.

Evan started sweeping through the wall with his bare hands, the veins in his arms bulging with effort.

"If my conclusion is right, the secret mechanism to the hidden piece should be around here somewhere," he muttered under his breath.

Lirian couldn't hear what he said, but he found his action odd and wondered why he was doing it. He kept silent, though, so as not to disturb him from concentrating on the task at hand.

Evan knew that the game map had expanded significantly in the third patch, prompting the developers to add hidden transfer arrays in the untamed wilderness of the planets.

To access them, you need to find them first. Most of them were hidden in plain sight, while the rest couldn't be accessed unless the secret mechanism that hid them was discovered.

The game of the rule was nothing comes for free. Either you have to pay for it or work hard to get it!

The transfer arrays were hidden in obscure locations, and they even had a good reason for being there hence not disturbing the immersive gameplay.

Since everything so far had been similar to the third patch of the game, Evan assumed that the hidden transfer array of the Kobold's Den of Mischief might still be in the secret location.

The secret location could be unlocked through the usage of the secret mechanism!

Suddenly, Evan's fingers grazed a loose stone.

"Found it!" He exclaimed in joy as he pushed it with a little more force than the others.
