Bloodline of Gods: The Genius at Olympus Academy!

Chapter 91 91.

He even remembered the strange changes to his ember of creation and even..

Even the Flames of Khaos

"Eghh..."

Aiden tried to move his body, but that's when a howl of pain shot through his entire body.

Just as Aiden was about to curse, he heard a rustle to the side and froze like a diver.

Only now did he realize that, sitting in a chair next to his hospital bed, was a beautiful young woman with flowing silver hair, reminiscent of liquid moonlight.

Just a glimpse of this sleeping beauty was enough to leave any mortal breathless.

Slowly rubbing her eyes, the beauty looked over with a tired expression, but when she saw a pair of beautiful golden eyes looking back at her, the tiredness evaporated from her body.

"Aiden! Are you really awake?"

Without caring about her appearance, the young girl rushed over and grabbed the boy's face.

She pushed and pulled the handsome young man's cheeks to make sure that she was not dreaming.

"Raelia… you…"

The two of them didn't speak, only looking at each other.

A hint of sadness and melancholy lingered in Raelia's eyes as she looked at Aiden's body, which he had scarred and sacrificed to protect her and Oliver. But the sadness didn't last long; the more she looked at the handsome young man's face, the more she remembered the events of that day.

That sadness quickly turned into another emotion…

Aiden looked into Raelia's eyes and was puzzled as he sensed the air growing cold all around him.

"R-Raelia!"

Aiden tried to speak, but Raelia was having none of it!

"Aghh!! Why should I be worried about an idiot like you? Damn it, I really feel like strangling you right now!"

Now that she had started complaining, the words simply wouldn't stop.

"How dare you sneak-attack me!

How dare you leave me behind!

Why did you even invite me onto a team in the first place?

Do you even trust me as a partner?"

Aiden wanted to speak, but no words came out of his mouth.

Raelia was pissed off—and rightfully so.

Although Aiden's actions had been a message at the time, in another sense, it was a complete and utter betrayal of trust.

Having your partner knock you out and make a decision for you…

"Raelia, I won't make excuses. What I did was wrong, but… if I were put in that position again, I would still make the same choice every time."

"You!!"

Raelia was so angry, Aiden felt he could see steam coming out of her ears.

"You say you're sorry but then go ahead and say this."

Aiden just sighed and tried to calm her down.

"Let me ask you this: if I told you to abandon me and run away, could you do it?"

Raelia just shook her head.

"Of course not. I could never abandon my friends!"

Aiden just face-palmed and shook his head.

"You see, that's the problem!"

Aiden and Raelia went back and forth for a while longer, but they made no progress.

Eventually, they could only agree to disagree.

In fact, Raelia knew that, from another perspective, Aiden's decision had been the correct one.

Instead of having everyone die, wouldn't it be better to have just one person sacrifice themselves?

It was true and logical, but Raelia didn't care.

Since when had the world of the gods ever been logical?

Ascending from mortality to godhood was akin to going against the common rules of the world, so why should she care about logic?

After arguing for a while longer, Aiden just sighed.

"Since we can't agree on the correct answer, let's just agree on one thing then, shall we?" said Aiden.

"Oh, and what is that?" asked Raelia.

"It's simple. Let's just get so strong that this situation never occurs again in our lives. Explore stories at My Virtual Library Empire

If you're strong enough, then when would you ever have to make that kind of decision again in your life? Just deal with everything in front of you with the might of your fists!"

Raelia heard Aiden's words, and a light seemed to shine in her eyes.

"Well said!" She couldn't have said it better herself.

If she were strong enough, that smelly snake wouldn't even dare look in her direction, much less chase her.

Seeing Raelia lost in her own thoughts, Aiden snapped her out of it and asked a question that had been bugging him for a while now.

"So, how did you find me in the mountain forest, anyway?"

Raelia sighed a little before giving her explanation.

"Not long after you collapsed the cave and separated me from you, I woke up.

Although it was hard to convince me at first, Oliver insisted that getting help was the fastest way to save you. We quickly made our way out.

Since there were no serpents chasing us, we could use both my tracking and Oliver's careful but steady navigation skills to find our way.

By the time we got out, we saw a massive beam of pulsing fire shooting into the air and ran in that direction.

By the time we arrived, we found you passed out in a massive circle of scorched earth.

Afterward, we quickly took you away for fear of attracting monsters. Then, you received treatment until you woke up now."

Aiden heard this and took a cold breath.

Lucky!

He was really lucky.

In that strange state, when he awakened the Flame of Khaos, he didn't seem to care about reason.

Even if the power of the flames had lasted longer, all that would have happened was that he'd go on a senseless massacre a while longer before running out of energy and passing out helplessly.

If he hadn't been lucky enough to have been spotted by Raelia and Oliver and quickly brought back, such a show would have definitely attracted powerful monsters.

By then, future generations wouldn't tell a tale about how a man ascended to godhood, but instead, how a talented senior talent became a pile of horse manure.

Aiden looked at the many gifts sent by students and instead looked for his water bottle.

"What about Oliver…?"

Raelia paused and just frowned.

"He's been taking it pretty badly.

He's been training like a possessed man every day, and no amount of talking will get him out of it."

Aiden just sighed.

He could understand why Oliver was like that. So, there wasn't much he could say.
