Chapter 473: Choice

Victor could not believe what he just saw. Aldred actually had a temporal drive with him!

Aldred smiled after seeing his reaction. Victor was a half cyborg and his face was completely made out of steel. This made it hard for him to read any expression at all. But the small tremor, and flickering eyes satisfied him.

He grabbed the handle and pulled it. The temporal drive spun and time was reverted back again. It all went so fast and went back to when Aldred stabbed Victor in the back.

"And here we are again," Aldred smiled.

"How did you obtain it? How did you obtain the temporal drive?"

"I meet a kid named Zaxary. He's a good kid. A little paranoid, but a good kid nonetheless."

"I should have kill that kid, but his talent is too good to waste."

"I don't want to make that same regrets, so I want to kill you."

Another clone appeared and slashed at Victor's right leg. He fell to the ground and looked up at Aldred.

Aldred looked into his robotic eyes. "But I won't kill you yet. You have some information that I need."

Aldred grabbed Victor by the head, and then teleported inside Zaxary's secret lab.

Zaxary, Barne, Sofiel, and Naley could not believe what Aldred bring to them. Victor, the powerful ruler of Duria, the most feared, and most intelligent being was captured!

Victor's existence was the reason why 'Dark Cities' Exist. Every criminals in Duria feared him, but he was so powerful and mysterious that no one even had the idea or plan to kill him. Fighting against him was useless since nothing they do could affect his rule over Duria.

Only one person continued to fight and that was Naley, but even so, her effort was nothing but mere annoyance.

"Aldred, you did it!" Stella hugged him and gave him a kiss on the lips.

Aldred hugged Stella's waist and french kissed her. "Took me a while, but I did it."

"So this is Victor," Barne approached. "He's more powerful than I expected. And what a fine material he use to replace his own bodies. I have never seen this type of materials before. If I have them, I could probably make something stronger than this. Though it could take months."

Zaxary was also in disbelief. Victor's existence was like a shadow that always followed him. Because of him, he had to run away from home and hide in this shit hole.

But here he was… weak and powerless.

"Be careful with him. He is still alive and I don't know what else he can do. My power is containing him though, so there shouldn't be much we needed to worry about."

Naley took a few step forward and looked at Victor with complicated expression.

"Okay, let's get all the information we can before we kill him," Aldred said. "Naley, you are good at obtaining information. Can you crack his head and download all the data or something?"

Victor lifted his head and glanced at Naley. His usual cold, metal, and expressionless face suddenly curled into a smile. For some reason, Aldred saw some warm in that expression.

He wondered why.

"Don't try to do anything, Victor. You have lost. The least you can do is give us all the information and knowledge you have regarding science and physics, or even blueprints for some of your tech," Aldred said.

"Sure," Victor said.

"Eh… I thought you would threatened to delete the information and self destruct or something. Why you agree so easily?"

Victor ignored him and kept looking warmly at Naley. "Isn't this what you wanted… daughter?"

Everyone widened their eyes and gasped in shock. What in the hell did they just heard? They looked at Naley and saw that she stood in silent. She did not refute the statement which meant it was true.

"Victor's daughter… he has a daughter? And it was her?" Zaxary spoke to himself to process that information.

"I can't believe this. What a shock." Barne rubbed his head.

Aldred glanced at Naley. "Naley, is Victor your father?"

"That is correct," Naley said.

Stella read her heart and sensed no lie in them. "She's telling the truth."

"Is he doing something bad for you when you were a child? Is that why you are going against him?" Aldred asked.

"No. He was and still is a good father. He… he never abandon me. He always gives me love. Even after everything I have done, he always forgive me for my mistake."

Aldred and Stella looked at each other.

Aldred was now confused. He wanted to kill Victor, but now that he knew that Naley was his daughter, he couldn't bring himself to kill this robot man. Aldred owe a favor and already thought of her as a friend. He couldn't kill his friend's father.

Unless that father was a bad father.

"Why did you go against him then?" Stella asked.

"I… I only wanted everyone to know the truth. I don't want him to die. I never wanted to hurt him."

Victor smiled. "You won't ever achieve your goal unless you are ready to kill me, daughter. I will do everything I can to stop the flow of information. The only way to prevent that is for you to kill me."

"Why can't you just stop being this mysterious puppet controller and retire?"

"And let everything I have build crumble to dust?"

"I would never be able to do that. But if you truly desire it, then kill me. I won't delete any knowledge I have. Take them all with you."

Tears began to trickle out of Naley's eyes. "I will disable you. I will make you unable to move, so you can keep living and stay with me. I will show you how beautiful the world can become."

"You know you cannot stop me. As long as I have my mind, it doesn't matter if I don't have limbs. You know I will find my way."

That was true. Now that Aldred understood Victor's grit and intellect, even he wouldn't dare to leave him alone even without a proper body.

"What about a time capsule?" Zaxary suggested. "We can put him in a time capsule that will stop any thought process."

"How reliable is this time capsule," Victor commented. "Any machine will be broken with time, any man will die, and old ideas will disappear. That will be when the time I came out and do it all over again with nobody to stop me."

Victor glanced at his daughter. "Kill me."

In truth, Victor was already tired, but he could not stop or retire. In his darkest days, when he was consumed with hatred and rage, he made sure to modify his brain to make sure that he would kill every person that used mana and life force. He made sure that he could never remove this desire.

That was why he still went on with his plan that was thought of more than a thousand year ago.

But all these time, his soul just wanted to rest. He was already too old. His world was full of white and black. The only color he had in his life was his daughter.

But even she decided to stay away from him.

That event shook his soul and realized that he needed to stop.

But he could never.

Aldred stepped forward. "Naley, what is your choice?"
