Chapter 214 Plan To Prevent The Demise Of The Spirit Race
"But at that time, I didn't care whether I would die or not since I could reset the universe after my death. I knew that in the end, I would need to reset the universe to prevent the deaths of the spirit race."
"I want to check whether the spirit realm is still intact or not. The fate of the spirit race mostly laid on whether my universe reset has enough time to prevent its destruction." n--0VelbIn
"Although from the Sword Hero's memories, this day should be the time they were summoned as heroes, there is still the possibility that the demon king had destroyed the spirit realm in advance or is plotting its destruction."
"It will be a lot easier if we can kill the heroes after they killed the demon king."
Alister started explaining to Zanna about his mindset at that time and what he speculated about.
After all, the memories of the Sword Hero were quite limited to his own perspective.
Furthermore, as much as Alister wanted to kill the heroes right now, he knew that he couldn't. Not only would it alert the Goddess Of Fantasy and might even let her descend into the Magic Fantasy World to kill him, but it would also prevent the death of the demon king.
Alister wasn't confident enough that his power was powerful enough to resist the laws of the God Realm. After all, from what he could speculate, Fantasia might have expended her divinity just to borrow some laws from the God Realm just to use them on the Demon King.
The rule of "only the Heroes can kill the Demon King" cannot be broken by even Zanna even though she is stronger than the Demon King. Because of that, Alister wasn't 100% sure that he could kill the Demon King.
Even if he reached Six-Digits and became a god, the rule that Fantasia had used might be at the peak of Six-Digit so unless he reached that level or obtained a powerful red-grade or black-grade talent that allowed him to bypass those rules, it would be an impossible task to defeat the Demon King without being a hero.
That was the main reason why the system even labeled this world as "Hero And Demon King Magic Fantasy World".
Knowing that, Alister didn't have much hope that he could obtain an S-grade simulation score unless he could defeat the demon king.
'The key to obtaining an S-grade simulation score might be the defeat of the demon king. After all, even making Zanna, the strongest in this world, submit to me, didn't grant any simulation score. It was mainly the defeat of the Sword Hero that I obtained an A-grade simulation score.'
'The protagonists of this world are the heroes and the demon king. The rest of the beings in this world, no matter how powerful they are, wouldn't give that much grades in the simulation score even after I defeated them.'
'So my focus should be on how to defeat the demon king. I might need a hero talent in the next simulation since this simulation will only end in my defeat.'
'Currently, my priority is to gather as much information in this simulation since I don't need to increase my power anymore as I'm already the strongest. Just getting the B-grade simulation score for the sake of the three simulated talents in this simulation is more than enough.'
While Alister was pondering over his plans for the future, he heard Zanna's response to his previous explanation.
"Yes, the two of us can't bypass the laws of the God Realm. So we can only kill with a borrowed knife by having one of the heroes kill the Demon King."
"From what you have said, the rest of the heroes are hostile to the world except for the Book Hero. However, the life and death of the Book Hero is uncertain as he is the first to desert and betray the heroes and the kingdom."
"For his identity as a traitor, he might be a much more dangerous existence than the rest of the heroes. But if we can get to know him and discover the reason for his betrayal, he might just be our greatest ally in defeating the Demon King."
"But for now, as you suggested, we can visit the Spirit Realm first to prevent the demise of the spirit race. As the former queen of the spirit race, I can't allow the spirit race to be attacked by other races without doing anything in retaliation."
Hearing Zanna's words, Alister nodded, "If you want, I can still start our one hundred years deal. But let's modify it to staying with each other for a hundred years rather than being confined in the edge of the Mystic Forest."
After hearing Alister's suggestion, Zanna knew that it was his excuse for staying with her but it was an excuse from him that she very much anticipated and yearned for.
Although as lovers, the two of them could stay with each other as long as they wanted. But it was due to the 100-year deal between them that connected them.
Like those couples who would visit the place where they first met with each other to reminisce about the past, the same went with Alister and Zanna as Alister suggested the 100-year deal again.
For a normal human, the 100-year deal would be their lifetime. But for Alister, it was just 1/20 of his life. After all, his lifespan was approximately 2000 years since he was at the demigod-level. It might even be more than that since he was both a Grand Mage and a Grand Warrior.
Furthermore, Alister still wasn't certain whether his restoration superpower could restore his lifespan by restoring his cells and preventing them from aging. If he could achieve that, then his restoration superpower was literally a cheat tool for immortality.
Of course, there was also his time manipulation. If he could prevent or at least reduce the flow of time in his body, it could delay his aging.
'Immortality is the least of my problems due to my simulator system. If I'm lucky enough, I can get an immortality-type simulated talent from the simulator. For now, spending time with Zanna and preventing the demise of the spirit race is much more important.'
