Chapitre 176: The Death of Little Bai

****(POV)

I always dreamt of dying a hero.

That was back when I was but a little kid.

You know go out in style.

Save the life of a dear friend.

Protect the city from a monster invasion.

Join a powerful guild or sect and protect the continent.

Perhaps even protect this world from otherworldly creatures too.

I'm not sure how to feel about this ending.

I'd say it is bittersweet.

I gave my life to protect a friend.

Yet this friend did not accept my sacrifice.

I am touched.

Yet I know how idiotic this all is.

There is no point in both of us perishing.

Yet, that was my friend's choice.

People would probably ridicule me for calling a slime a friend.

This does not matter to me.

There are emotions that transcend species.

Love is one of them.

Simple camaraderie too.

If anything this slime is my family.

The only one I have remaining.

I wanted to save it.

I failed.

Life can be unpredictable.

Humans can be unpredictable.
