First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 261

Chapter 261: Remember—you are never alone

The Great World Tree Empress leaned forward slightly, her ethereal eyes filled with quiet compassion and ancient understanding as she studied the seed closely. "Oh, poor child," she whispered softly, a gentle sorrow in her tone.

With care, she extended one delicate finger, a single drop of shimmering emerald nectar forming at its tip.

The droplet touched the damaged seed gently, immediately sinking into its surface. The seed pulsed eagerly, greedily absorbing the precious drop.

In mere moments, the cracks vanished, marks faded, and a vibrant, healthy glow returned to the seed, illuminating Lumi’s astonished face in a soft green radiance.

The Great World Tree Empress smiled softly, gently handing the now-healthy World Tree Seed back to Lumi.

Her voice was tender, filled with quiet warmth. "Tell the young man to use it wisely. It holds more potential than he knows."

Lumi accepted the seed cautiously, her projection flickering with gratitude and awe. [Thank you, Great Empress—I will tell Master.]

She smiled with melancholy, looking at Lumi, "You truly forget all your memories, huh."

[Huh?] Lumi tilted her head in confusion.

With a final, gentle smile, the Great World Tree Empress inclined her head gracefully toward Echo and Time Dragon Emperor, her form beginning to fade into a peaceful cascade of emerald leaves.

"May your path remain steadfast, Throneless Emperor," she murmured gently, before disappearing completely into the tranquil stillness beyond.

Echo watched her departure quietly, gratitude lingering gently in his expression. Beside him, Time Dragon Emperor turned slowly, his sands flowing gently as his timeless gaze settled warmly upon Echo.

"You have chosen wisely, old friend," Time Dragon Emperor spoke quietly, admiration and quiet support lacing his ancient voice. "This bearer... Primus. He’s missing from all possible future paths I can see."

Echo’s eyes widened in surprise, "Huh? Is that even possible?"

Time Dragon Emperor’s form flickered as he chuckled gently, "I heard even that Old Daoist was having trouble divining Primus’s future. I think in a while even he won’t be able to predict his growth. And this is good news. We finally have hope."

Echo took a moment to take in Time Dragon Emperor’s words, "I see. That’s good. The more unpredictable his future is, the better it would be."

"If he succeeds, perhaps the sacrifices we’ve all made will not have been in vain."

Echo nodded gently, his eyes firm yet tender. "I believe in him more strongly than I’ve ever believed in anyone."

Time Dragon Emperor inclined his head once more, understanding and respect shining gently in his eyes. "Remember to not interfere in his path again. It would have more negative impact than positive."

Echo nodded while looking at the unconscious body of Orion in Fiora’s lap, "Yes, I’m thinking of leaving and going back to the Void again. I want to look for some stuff from the Fourth Epoch."

"Then I’ll bid you farewell."

With a final nod, Time Dragon Emperor’s luminous form began fading slowly into streams of gentle golden sand, dispersing quietly into the timeless void.

His final words lingered softly in the stillness, filled with gentle reassurance and ancient wisdom. "Remember—you are never alone."

Echo stood silently amidst the restored Prime Realm, its serenity once again masking the cosmic confrontation that had occurred mere moments before.

Asteraxa, the hidden spirit of Soulpiercer, trembled violently within the dark depths of Orion’s Sea of Consciousness.

She had stayed utterly silent, masking her presence carefully, terrified yet fascinated by the inconceivable power of the beings above.

She had underestimated Echo greatly, believing herself hidden, unnoticed—yet they had seen her clearly, dismissing her presence with gentle disregard, a mere remnant of a long-forgotten war.

"Little soul," Echo spoke quietly, his gentle voice directly reaching Asteraxa, compassionate yet tinged with mild amusement, "you underestimate those who have lived since the First Epoch."

Echo’s cosmic threads gently washed through both Lumi and Asteraxa’s consciousness, carefully wiping clean every memory related to the recent events—the arrival of the Emperors, the cosmic argument, the revival of the damaged seed, and even his own presence.

Their recollections became calm, blank, seamless—leaving them untouched by the overwhelming knowledge that had almost burdened their existence.

Lumi’s avatar flickered briefly, eyes momentarily blank with confusion before returning slowly to their normal cheerful, oblivious state.

Within Orion’s Sea of Consciousness, Asteraxa fell quietly dormant once again, remembering nothing of the awe-inspiring beings she had so closely witnessed.

Finally satisfied, Echo lowered his hand slowly, reality settling gently back into place. The ancient Emperor’s gaze lingered softly upon Orion for a final moment, his eyes filled with quiet hope, unshakable conviction, and subtle melancholy.

"Grow strong, Primus," he whispered gently, voice filled with profound tenderness and infinite expectation before he extended his hands as golden threads left his fingers and entered Orion’s body, rapidly healing it and speeding up the evolution process. "The path ahead awaits. And Lumi, you should go ahead with your Evolution. Orion is now safe."

With those final, softly spoken words, Echo slowly turned, his form shimmering softly with timeless starlight as he stepped quietly into the endless Void beyond the fragile bounds of reality.
