Chapter 76: Young Man, Do You Want To Become Light?
[But as you continued to delve deeper into Kyle's memories, you discovered something else—buried beneath the surface of his practical concerns was a lingering desire to prove himself, to rise above the mundane life he was headed toward.]
[He wasn't just after financial security; he wanted to be extraordinary, to do something that mattered.]
[Then, another memory emerged—one from his childhood.]
[Kyle once had the dream of becoming a hero, of fighting against the forces of evil and saving those in need. But life had extinguished that dream. Society, expectations, and the harshness of reality had beaten it out of him.]
[Over time, Kyle had learned that being a hero wasn't practical or realistic in a world that demanded conformity and survival.]
["This is even better than I expected," you mused.]
[Kyle's forgotten dream of heroism was exactly the leverage you needed.]
[With your plan in place and your newfound understanding of Kyle's inner desires, you prepared to reveal yourself, ready to offer him not just wealth, but the chance to be more than ordinary—the chance to be a hero once again.]
[You allowed your invisibility to fade, revealing yourself in the room. Golden light emanated from your body as your divinity as a Median True God spread through the space, casting an awe-inspiring glow that made Kyle freeze in shock.]
[Kyle's eyes widened as he stared at you, speechless. The light was almost blinding, but it felt warm, powerful, and overwhelming.]
[You smirked and stepped forward, your voice booming with an exaggerated gravitas, "Young man, do you want to become light?"]
[Kyle blinked, confusion written across his face. "W-what?"]
["Do you want to become light?" you repeated, the golden glow intensifying as if you were channeling the essence of a divine being. The room seemed to vibrate with your energy.]
[Kyle, still processing what was happening, stammered, "I... I don't understand."]
[You sighed theatrically, as if this was the most obvious thing in the world. "To become light means to rise above the ordinary, to break free from the mundane chains of society, to transcend the darkness of mediocrity! Kyle, you have a choice—stay in the shadows, a cog in the machine, or step into the light and become a hero."]
[Kyle stared at you, the words clearly tugging at the buried dream he had long abandoned. "A... a hero?"]
[You nodded, your expression deadly serious. "Yes. The hero you always dreamed of being. Forget exams, forget job interviews, forget normalcy. I can give you the power to change the world, to be the light in the darkness."] Enjoy new adventures at m-v l-NovelFire.net
[Kyle's confusion was giving way to hope, to something deeper. "But... how?"]
[You leaned closer, your voice dropping to a more persuasive tone. "All you have to do is trust me. Follow me, and I'll show you the way. The power you've always craved—the power to be special, to be more than anyone else—can be yours."]
[Kyle's resolve wavered, but you could see the flicker of excitement and belief growing within him. His forgotten dreams were resurfacing, and you knew you had him right where you wanted.]
["So, Kyle," you said with a smile that was both reassuring and devious. "Do you want to become light?"]
[After a moment of hesitation, Kyle slowly nodded. "Yes... I want to become light."]
[Your words had struck the perfect chord within Kyle. Years of societal pressure and the crushing weight of expectation had buried his childhood dream of being a hero, but it had never truly disappeared.]
[The lure of something more—something extraordinary—had always been there, simmering beneath the surface. And now, with you standing before him, offering a chance to reclaim that dream, Kyle found it impossible to refuse.]
[Kyle's desire to break free from the ordinary, combined with the awe-inspiring display of your divinity, made your persuasion effortless.]
[You had tapped into the deepest part of his subconscious, reminding him of the ideals he once held but had long since abandoned. Now, faced with a tangible opportunity to be more than just another student, Kyle had no choice but to accept.]
[With a single nod from Kyle, you knew you had won him over completely.]
["Very well," you said with a smirk. "You're about to embark on a journey that will change everything."]
[You extended your hand toward him, encasing Kyle in an invisible protective barrier. The golden light around you intensified as you activated your teleportation ability.]
[The air around you warped as the space between where you stood and your destination was erased.]
[Within seconds, the world shifted and distorted, and Kyle felt a strange pulling sensation, as if reality itself was bending. But thanks to your invisible force encasing him, he remained safe from any potential harm.]
[In an instant, the two of you appeared in the Solstice Family stronghold, where Evangeline and the old monk were waiting.]
[The monk gave a calm nod upon your arrival, while Evangeline raised an eyebrow, looking at Kyle with a mixture of curiosity and concern.]
["This is the one for the second method," you said, releasing the barrier around Kyle.]
[Kyle, still wide-eyed from the teleportation, took in his new surroundings, overwhelmed yet excited. He didn't fully understand what he had signed up for, but the chance to be special—to become a hero—was all he needed to know.]
[But Kyle didn't know that what awaited him was nightmare and hell. After all, only those who faced adversities and overcame them could become heroes.]
[You glanced at him, fully aware of the torment that lay ahead. Kyle's dreams of becoming a hero were sincere, but the path he had chosen was anything but the idealized heroism he had envisioned.]
["Kyle," you said, your voice steady but carrying a weight, "the challenges you're about to face will push you to your limits—pain, fear, despair—everything you fear, you will face. But know this: only those who conquer these trials can become true heroes."]
[Kyle looked at you with unwavering determination in his eyes. He had no idea of the full scope of suffering he would soon endure. With a firm nod, he responded, "I'm ready."]
[You exchanged a brief glance with Evangeline and the monk. They, too, understood the gravity of what was about to begin.]
["Then it's time," you said quietly.]
