SSS Ranked Reincarnation: Dark Dragon Legacy

Silva let out a tired groan and leaned back into the chair.

"Alright, you have three minutes to round up," Silva said.

"Thank you. So the boy, now turned man, needed a way to find his love and follow his newfound dream of cooking.

But he lacked the resources to search for her, so he turned to the empire and his bosses for help."

"No, no, no," Silva interrupted him. Standing up and walking up to his face, Silva looked him dead in the eye and spoke.

"I know where this whole story is going, and I don't like it. You want to tell me now that the empire asked you to carry out jobs for them, and they would help you get her back?

What the hell do you mean that you didn't have the resources to chase after her? She was the love of your life, the person that offered you a way to live and have a life.

She saved you from the hell that you dug for yourself. She gave you an escape from the pain of losing your parents. She gave you another chance at life." Silva walked closer to him and grabbed him by the collar.

"She didn't care about the risk of loving you. If the empire had found out about her because of you, she would have been killed.

She threw away all care and decided that, because of you, she would love a human and invest her time into giving your life light.

Now, I'm not a good person, and I live how I want, but if there is one thing I never do, it is turn on the people that truly stand by me.

I would burn the world for them, and I would kill anyone to make sure that they were happy, even if it meant going against gods.

But you, you have the guts to say that you didn't have the resources. You opened that trap of yours and said that the woman who invested her life in you was not important enough for you to go after."

"No, I didn't say she wasn't important."

"Shut your trap, you bloody idiot. You already said it, saying you didn't have resources. Should that even be a question? Should that even be something you can say?

You should have gone through the mud, through the heat, through the darkness, through everything. What is the point of claiming that you have love for her if you sit down and don't do anything?

You think the empire will ever allow you to chase a half-elf? Are you dumb, or do you just want to be? Do you even have the brain capacity to understand what is happening?

She is a half-elf. Have you thought about the hate she would be receiving from fellow elves? Or did you just believe that because she is a half-elf and they came to take her, then they would accept her easily?

You should have thought, what would make the elves suddenly want their half-elf back? But no, you ran back to your old life, not knowing if she lived or breathed.

And the worst part is that you didn't even keep the promise you made to her.

She told you, keep cooking; that way, we would be together. And being the asshole you are, you went ahead to start killing again. Wow, what a lover boy.

Your actions show that you never cared. You never loved her. You lied to her. You used her and then threw her away and moved on with your life. To you, she was just a phase."

Spark Blade got enraged by the last line. She rose up and grabbed Silva by the neck.

"Don't ever say I didn't love her. She was my everything, so don't say that. I loved her more than you could ever imagine," Spark Blade said.

"Then why didn't you show her that damn love?" Silva said and punched Spark Blade in the guts, sending him flying into the wall.

Spark Blade slammed against the wall, passed out for a second, and then woke up. He fell to the ground and coughed violently.

Silva walked to his side like the devil. He bent low and spoke.

"The empire played you through the love you have, but I have an offer, Spark Blade. I'll make sure that you'll be able to see your love in less than a week.

If I complete that, then you'll work for me, and I'll make it so that you can also finally be together, even if it means burning the elves that stand in my way.

You have so much vital information about the empire, and you are also very talented, and the empire is wasting that talent.

"So what do you say? Do you want to see her again, or was your love for her just a lie?" Silva said.

"You have a way to let me see her?" Spark Blade asked to confirm.

"Oh yes. The princess of the elf empire is my closest friend. She will be able to find your love easily and reunite you.

But it doesn't come cheap. If I do this, you'll have to sell your soul to me and be my person forever. But you also get more out of this bargain.

I'll protect both of you and also ensure that you are doing well. So now, the question lies with you: how much do you want to see her? How much do you want to show her that you love her?" Silva asked.

Spark Blade looked down at the ground, and he sighed.

"My real name is Gabriel. I take your deal. My whole life after her has been dark, and even if she doesn't love me anymore, just getting to see her and know that she is fine is enough to sell my soul," Gabriel said.

Silva placed his hand on Gabriel's shoulder and spoke.

"You have agreed to your part. Now let me show you that I'll go above and beyond for my followers," Silva said and then turned to leave the room. The others followed as well, leaving only Gabriel.
