Bro, I'm not an Undead!

Chapter 1256: Skullius Festos Dawn



It was dreadfully quiet within the seed.

Skullius could feel his unsaid thoughts spilling out of his limited form into the silence, and getting lost in the crowded expanse. There were tranquil flashes and sparks within it from the continuing fusion process, but they seemed so distant, so far removed from Skullius.

Perhaps that was because despite his consciousness being in the seed, his attention was still stuck within the Masterpieces and the Stark Troops within which he kept his essence flooding. Enlightenment was at his door and for a moment, Skullius almost got too zealous about his current state. He felt himself cross a boundary that he had never been able to perceive before.

It was this boundary that separated the Immoral and the Discount Human of old.

Ordinary would cease to exist.

Emotions that weren't his, ambitions that weren't his, dreams that weren't his, blasted Skullius from all sides, almost taking over his individuality - his sense of self - but he crushed them all completely and remained dominant. In fact, his will grew larger, greater, more potent.

...And then the silence shattered as the guidance field spawned amidst the flashes and darkness.

[Because you have torn a new Direction for yourself, would you like to revise your name?] Skullius took a moment.

It was funny that the guidance field would ask him this.

It had been the one to decide on the name 'Festos Dawn' all the way back then, when he had first met Tulnas and the Harem's Guild in the Inhone City.

Back then, he had only been desperate for a name to give that didn't sound as suspicious as Skullius.

Back then, he never would have guessed that the name Festos Dawn would be attached to so many people and events in the future.

Funny indeed.

The current Skullius didn't think he needed any additions or subtractions to his name.

Well, he hadn't really been the best at naming things in the first place. The best thing he could think of at the moment, was to combine his names.

"Skullius Festos Dawn. Let's keep it simple. I don't need anything more than that," he said.
