I am a eighteen year old.
Since I was a kid, I always had great dreams about my future.
Even though my world came crashing down when I was seventeen, I managed to pull myself back up.
Many things about me changed in that one year. But my dream of growing stronger didn't.
I still wanted to grow insanely strong. But not just to defeat the Abyssals and bring peace, but also so that I don't have to ever watch my people killed.
It's my greatest dream. But it's also my greatest fear.
I dread the day where I have to watch someone I love being killed in front of my eyes as I watch helplessly.
Perhaps that's why I train. That's why, even though I can take it easy and easily reach the Sovereign state, I shed sweat and blood.
Many say they're driven by their dreams. But I am driven by fear.
I can stand physical pain. I can hold on against mental torture. But I can't stand my nightmare becoming a reality.
