Chapter 1455: Choice

Emery felt a sense of unease as he tried to comprehend his situation. Despite the Queen's assurances, he could not shake off the feeling that she was hiding something from him.

Even his requests to meet Silva, the Queen's daughter, had been ignored. She had constantly been on his mind, and the refusal to allow them to meet only further fueled his suspicion.

"She will meet you when she can," The queen said with almost nothing to read from her expression, other than a cold staring gaze.

He could not blindly trust the Queen's words; there had to be something she was not telling him.

However, Emery knew he couldn't simply dismiss everything the queen had told him. The warning about the danger he faced outside the planet, regardless of its validity, was enough to give him pause. There was no denying that he was in a weakened state after seeing himself fighting in the tournament.

He had been content with his strength after the physical test today but now, seeing what he was capable of, he needed to focus on regaining his full power. The queen was offering a way to do just that.

But the question remained: could he trust the Queen to act toward his best interests, and not her own?

Considering the options given, going home didn't hold much appeal to him. Without his memory, he had no real connection to his home planet other than curiosity in finding his identity. So, he didn't feel any particular urge to return there, at least not right away.

In the end, the second option was the best choice for him. Besides, If he saw something he didn't like, he would request to leave or even make an escape attempt if he had to. For now, he was content to stay low and work on regaining his memory and his full strength.

"I will accept your second offer" This time Emery answered in a much more respectful tone.

"Good," said the Silver-haired Queen. "Annara will take you to the allocated residence"

Emery followed Annara, the red hair woman, to a flying vehicle that quickly lifted off the ground and soared away from the imposing facility. As they flew, Annara chatted about his surprising decision to choose the second option.

"I remember, you always used to obsess about home," She said, rolling her eyes. "So boring! But I suppose losing your memory has made you a bit wiser."

Annara went on to briefly explain to Emery her stay here as a member of the Ouroboros faction for the last three years, and that it had been a good place for her.

"Honestly, if you ask me, you should just forget about returning home and plan on staying here. What's so good about a lower realm planet anyway?" she said with a grin. "And as for the queen, you can trust her. She's a good person"

Emery heaved a heavy sigh. Why should he trust anyone when he couldn't even trust himself? He stared out the window, watching the landscape blur by in a haze of colors and shapes. It was an awful feeling, not knowing who he was or where he belonged, like a puzzle with missing pieces that he couldn't seem to fit together.

After a while, the flying vehicle landed at a massive complex consisting of multiple buildings made of ancient green stones. Emery was surprised when he realized that Annara had flown him straight to the Ouroboros royal complex, which was reserved for the Ouroboros family and their most important guests.

As they entered the grand estate, several servants rushed to greet them and Emery was then led to one of the separate buildings, a guest house.

The room was massive, with a massive bed and a balcony that overlooked the lush forest. There was even enough space to train, should he need to. Emery was taken aback by the grandeur of it all and was unconsciously impressed by the Ouroboros hospitality.

As he looked around, Annara came up beside him, her expression one of envy.

"Wow, you get a much better room than I do," she said with a wistful sigh. "I'm so jealous..."

Annara then reached into her space ring and pulled out a box filled with various items, which she carefully laid out on the table.

The first item was a half dozen vials of a mysterious substance labeled as [Fey serum] to boost his Bloodline.

The second item was a small cube, an information item containing an abundance of resources about the Magus Universe, including books, articles, and recordings.

"We have collected some images and recordings where you were ever involved in... unfortunately any visuals about your lower realm planet, Earth were restricted, and we only have a few images from afar."

The third and final item was a metal cube with multiple intricate lines etched into it. As he picked it up, he realized it was much heavier than it looked.

"If those images don't help, we hope that this will. This is a [memory puzzle], an artifact that will let you probe deep into your own memory" Annara explained, gesturing towards the cube.

Emery examined the items with interest, especially the last one, and then genuinely stated his gratitude. "Thank you, Annara"

Annara was a little taken aback, "No problem. The servants will help you with anything you need, whether it's food, a bath, or someone to train with. They can even provide companionship if that's what you're into, who knows you are given a second life, maybe you like to do things differently" she added teasingly.

She gave a strange smile as she said "If you ever require me... I will be just 15 minutes away..." She chuckled before adding "The bracelets will help you... I will come if I am not away on a mission... Alright... Then if there is nothing else,  I'll pick you up again next week for the tasks you promised the queen."

Emery nodded and saw the red-haired woman close the door as she left the room

Impatient to delve into the items presented, Emery took a seat in the empty area of the room and started examining the images and recordings contained within the cube.

The first entry he selected was the item titled "Earth".

Seeing the otherworldly visual of Blue planet did give some warm feelings within.  Unfortunately, it didn't bring back any memories as he never really saw his planet from this angle.  Regardless, the image gave him a sense of gnawing nostalgia that he could not shake.

Due to the fact that he didn't spend much time outside the Academy, there weren't many images or documents he could see about his past. This meant he could only depend heavily on the [Memory puzzle] to learn about his past.

He focused his mind on the metal sphere, allowing his energy to flow into it. He had very little control over his power, but the sphere pulled as if it had a mind of its own. The runes within the sphere began to change, forming new patterns and symbols. Emery watched with fascination as the sphere seemed to come alive in his hands.

"Let's hope this won't take too long"
