Chapter 773 The value of life
Chapter 773 The value of life
Time rolls forward like a rotating wheel, and even occasional pauses cannot change this trend.
With the departure of Gralfan, the suspended time resumed its flow, and the old man Thatano stood there somewhat lonely, looking up at the sky, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
"You already knew this would happen, didn't you?"
Just when the old man Tomano was alone, Himeya Jun suddenly appeared beside him silently and looked up at the gradually darkening sky with him.
"Yeah, I was actually quite scared at the beginning, but after thinking about it carefully, it's better to make a choice before my life is burned out, rather than living alone and then suddenly dying silently one day."
Facing the sudden appearance of Himeya Jun, old man Tomano seemed unusually calm and composed, not showing any sign of panic at all, and even the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"Gralvando gave me some time, just enough to say goodbye to the child. His company during this time made me feel less lonely."
"Whoosh!"
As soon as the old man Thatano finished speaking, a sound of breaking wind reached his ears. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw Mefras landing on the ground not far away.
"It's you!"
Seeing Himeya Jun appear next to the old man Tomano, Meiflas suddenly became nervous, but Himeya Jun made a pause gesture the next moment.
"I just came to see what happened. Just pretend I don't exist."
After saying this, Ji Yajun immediately and silently stepped back a few steps to make room for the two lives from different planets.
After seeing Himeya Jun's actions, Mefras secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then handed the card with the snowflake symbol printed on it to the old man Tomano.
"No, you can keep this card for yourself."
Faced with Mefras's move to return the card, old man Tomano smiled and shook his head to express his refusal, and then told Mefras shocking news that he had not expected.
"The price of summoning Graerfan is that the summoner disappears from this world's time, so this card has no meaning to me anymore. I'll leave it to you as a souvenir collection."
"Wait! You didn't tell me when this started!"
After hearing that old man Tomono would disappear soon, Mefras instantly lost his elegant demeanor as a cosmic gentleman and became extremely excited.
However, compared to the excitement of Mefras, the old man Tomono still smiled and waved his hand. "Don't be excited, kid. My life has already entered the countdown. It is really great to be able to do what I think is right in my limited time. I have no regrets in my life."
At this point, Mr. Tomako paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about something, and then continued, "My child, you must remember that the meaning of life is not its length, nor whether you have done anything remarkable, but to spend every day without regrets. Just like I have been unknown all my life, but I have never wasted my time. I work hard every day as if it were my own performance. I really work very hard to live!"
Mefras just lowered his head and said nothing, but his tightly clenched fists showed that his heart was as chaotic as a tsunami, and now it was only the tenacity he had developed over the years that supported him.
"Okay kid, the time I agreed with Gralfan is almost up. I hope you can go home and say hello to your father for me. Just say that an ordinary human on Earth is paying respects to an alien friend he has never met."
As the last word fell, Tomano's body was suddenly surrounded by a golden light. Until this moment, Tomano still maintained a gentle smile, but this time his smile was filled with a sense of relief.
"Wow!"
The next second, the body of the old man Tomano turned into countless golden particles of light and flew into the sky to another world, where he could play music to his heart's content and reunite with his wife and children whom he had been separated from for many years, never to be separated...
"are you OK."
Seeing that Mefras lowered his head and remained silent, Himeya Jun asked out of concern.
"I...I'm fine."
Raising his head and looking at Himeya Jun in front of him, Mefras suddenly summoned his sword from his left hand, and the next moment he handed the sword to Himeya Jun.
"I surrender to you. According to the tradition of our Mefras people, if you are willing to accept my surrender, please take my sword."
"I understand."
Without suspecting any trickery, Himeya Jun took Mefras's sword with one hand. The sword was almost half a person's height and looked extremely heavy, but in fact it was unexpectedly light. The weight in his hand felt as casual as holding a wooden stick.
Seeing that the other party had accepted his token of surrender, Mefras nodded slightly and then said, "Ultraman Nexus, I know that you have very strong power, so can you please help me return to the universe that belongs to me? I want to go home and have a look."
"No problem, but can you let me use that card first?"
"Please do as you wish, as long as you can return it to me in the end."
After reaching an agreement, Himeya Jun condensed a crystal and handed it to Mefras, and Mefras also handed the card to Himeya Jun.
"Sure enough, there is still some residual power."
Gently stroking the surface of the card, Himeya Jun instantly felt that a small amount of the power that summoned Gralfan still remained on it, and this was exactly what Himeya Jun needed.
Placing his palm gently on the card, Ji Yajun then mobilized the power of light in his body to merge with it, and the next moment the golden river of time appeared again.
"Haha! You're allowed to come here quickly!"
"Good! Just keep smiling, Sierra, this is the most perfect photo in the world!"
Looking at the memories played out in the long river of time, Himeya Jun suddenly revealed a bitter smile with complicated emotions.
"Sera... I will definitely let you come back. You won't live only in my memory forever. Your life hasn't really begun yet."
