Chapter 564: You Can Be A Hero Too [Part 1]

The Giant Termite lay on the ground, its massive body slowly convulsing in its final moments. Its eyes flickered, struggling to stay open, as it gazed up at the sky.

It knew its time had come, and it accepted its fate with stoic resignation.

"So, this is where it ends…," the Giant Termite faintly muttered, feeling its life force trickling down like the sand in an hourglass.

Its blazing eyes slowly lost their glow, and its body stopped convulsing. As its eyes slowly closed, a tear fell from them, evaporating even before it could hit the ground.

In its final moments, it found itself in a place he was all too familiar with.

A volcano could be seen spewing lava high up in the air in the distance, and the lands around him were covered in a red tint.

"I'm back," the Giant Termite said as it looked around. "This must be the afterlife…"

Suddenly, a playful voice that he hadn't heard for several months reached his ears.

"Thank you for doing your best, old friend."
