Rise of The Anti God (Web Novel)

Damien and Lily talked and reminisced about their childhood memories as time passed swiftly.

”Do you know how badly I wanted to ask you how you ended up at that wretched place? How you are feeling now? How much you had to go through or what happened to your father? ” Lily ’s voice softened at the end.

Damien sighed, ”My father is dead. He was poisoned by my uncle. Then my cousin and my uncle tried to kill me by throwing me away in some remote area where no one would even know who I was. But as luck would have it, my cousin got killed by some bandits who then sold me off to the slave market. But trust me, I am fine now. ”

The way Damien said it was as if he was talking about somebody else.

But in truth, Damien actually didn ’t feel much sadness or anger for his adopted father ’s death since he wasn ’t the one who actually experienced those memories. He just felt it a pity that such a good man had to die like that. But if his adopted father was still alive, he would have at least tried to save him.

Nor did he feel indignant or angry for being abandoned by his real parents since he was always an orphan even in his previous life. He was beyond that phase and had gotten used to this life where he learned not to expect things from others. But that did not mean he was not curious about his real family. He wanted to seek some answers from them after all.

But Lily was so shocked and sad that Damien had to face this all alone without anyone to help him. She regretted for not being there for Damien when he needed her. Damien was there for her in the lowest point of her life during her childhood. She didn ’t know whether Damien really meant when he said he ’s fine.

But due to her father ’s untimely death and all the problems that came after it, she never got the time to go look for Damien. However, she would still think about Damien whenever she was sad or dejected, remembering his innocent and cheerful smile felt like a ray of light within all the darkness surrounding her.

”I am sorry I wasn ’t there for you… ” Lily said as her eyes grew moist again.
