When Adam asked why someone with an SSS-rank cultivation talent would repeatedly activate Once Upon A Time, he wasn't being insensitive.
He was being logical.
An SSS-rank talent meant dominance.
It meant smooth cultivation, rapid breakthroughs and overwhelming potential. With enough time and without being reckless, such a person would naturally climb to the highest ranks.
Power would come.
Influence would follow.
So why die?
Why reset?
Why gamble everything over and over?
Hearing her answer, though…
He understood.
"The Family," Adam said quietly.
Remedy nodded.
"They've been using the lesser regions as sacrifices for their twisted goals," she said. "And like you… I was one of the victims."
Adam didn't interrupt.
"Even though the memories are distant," she continued, "I can still recall fragments of my first life."
Her voice lowered slightly.
"And one thing is very clear."
"In that life, I didn't have an SSS-rank cultivation talent."
Adam's brows furrowed.
