บท 249: Zero's Answer

"What are you going to do if you have to face Solo who has become your enemy?"

Zero blinked. Buddha wasn't joking and the boy found himself smiling for some reason. It would mean that he would be able to meet Solo again wouldn't it?

"I will save him," he told Buddha who wasn't expecting such an answer.

The Enlightened One smiled a genuine smile when he heard that. His heart felt lighter and the Sage God knew what he should do. Even if he was breaking his promise to his old friend, Buddha would put all his hopes onto the teenager before him. While Solo was a powerful being, he was extremely fragile on the inside. His distrust for his creations made him lonelier than when he was alone at the beginning. It was why Solo made the Mind's Eye system as insurance to protect his future self.
