Chapter 952: What's Your Goal? - Part 4The young man realized he had nothing but his life to offer. Chang Jie was willing to give up his life as long as he could achieve his goal. He had never felt this way in his life, a strong desire to want something. This was the first, and he did everything he could to achieve the goal. "Why do people so easily give up their lives for power...." Tang Shaoyang muttered in a low voice, "Alright, let's listen; what do you want to achieve with this power?" The origin of this chapter's debut can be traced to N0v3l--B1n. Personally, he liked the young man's resoluteness and saw his potential in the young man. He could see the young man be a strong individual in the future with that kind of attitude. "I have only one goal in my life; it's to protect my childhood friend, Duan Ya," Chang Jie responded with an earnest expression, "My parents died in a traffic accident when I was five, and Duan Ya's parents who are my neighbor kind enough to adopt and raise me as their children. I owe a lot to her and her family, and her parents died when the zombie appeared. This is the time for me to repay the debt, protect her from any form of danger, and ensure she has a safe and comfortable life." "That was my goal before the strong zombies attacked the village. Now, I have two more goals in my life. First, protecting Duan Ya is still my priority. Second, It's to avenge Uncle Gan Shuo. Third, I want to protect everyone who is kind to me, the villagers, and also Uncle Gan's family. In order to achieve my goal, I need to get stronger; I need more power. I need your assistance, Your Majesty. Uncle Gan died to protect me. Because of me, Uncle Gan's children have to grow without him; I... I... I have caused misery to others. I am so pathetic... I don't want people to die to protect me anymore. I want to atone for my sin by protecting other people! Please, help me, Your Majesty!" Chang Jie's miserable voice echoed inside the throne hall as he raised his voice at the end. The young man was so excited that he ran off to the door, just like a kid who just got a candy, running off without saying goodbye after receiving the candy.
[Do you want me to send a message to Lady Selena or Lady Arina, Master?] Origin's robotic voice rang inside the throne hall. "Why?" Tang Shaoyang was confused for a moment, but then he realized what Origin meant by sending Selena or Arina a message, "There's no need. Chang Jie will never betray me." [But....] Origin was not convinced.
"I say there's no need for the Oath Ceremony, do you understand, Origin?" [Yes, Master. I apologize for doubting you.] Tang Shaoyang did not know why, but he somehow trusted Chang Jie. The feeling just came naturally, "I think I understand why Captain Gan Shuo used his life to protect this young man." Gan Shuo must have felt the same as him.
