“How pitiful… her entire existence is just for the sake of that Family…” Sighing in his heart, Yu Zi Yu fell into silence.

Such was the Era of Transcendence.

Clans rose one after another, Forces sprang up everywhere…

Most living beings pursued only one thing, strength.

And the reason was simple: a single powerful being could support an entire Family, an entire Force.

Just like the girl before him, by successfully obtaining Dragon Balls, she had elevated her Family to new heights, turning even the lowest into nobility, and establishing them as the most prestigious Magical Family in the West.

If this little girl went even further, she might bless her Family with prosperity for a thousand years.

That… was the meaning of her existence.

However, this also meant the girl had been no different from a puppet, a walking corpse.

If not for her dominant personality awakening, she would still be under her Family’s control.

“The meaning of your existence…” A faint yet majestic voice echoed within the girl’s heart, inaudible to others.

“The meaning of my existence? Can you tell me? That’s my only wish…” Her voice quivered with emotion, and her short hair flew up as if caught in a breeze.

Right at that moment, her black pupils transformed, turning into multicolored spirals.

*Boooom…* Suddenly, a deafening clap thundered across the sky, while Yu Zi Yu’s body jolted a little, for a subtle sense of danger rose in his heart.

And the source of this danger was none other than the girl before him, who was barely at Tier-3.

“You’ve got to be kidding…” Shaken, Yu Zi Yu could not help but recall what he had seen in her memories regarding those eyes.

She had sealed her own heart, grown bored of the world outside.

And then, gradually, she immersed herself in the void staring straight into it… from which those eyes were born.

Eyes of Death. They saw through the boundary between life and death and could sever all things.

All things, including physical objects, living beings, and even conceptual entities. For example, space itself… once severed, it would shatter.

Of course, such terrifying eyes came with activation conditions.

And that condition was understanding of death.

Thus, her eyes were completely useless against anything that was devoid of any concept of death, or whose death she had no understanding of. And even if she could understand the target’s death, the more abstract the target’s death was, the greater the strain would be on her mind.

Take ‘Time’ for instance, it had no inherent concept of death. If she tried to force her understanding of its death, it would overwhelm her and place a heavy burden on her body.

[What terrifying eyes!] Praising in his mind, Yu Zi Yu could not help but recall the Void Creature that could analyze and then decompose anything, the Observer.

The Eyes of Death and the Eye of Observer had similar abilities.

One required understanding; the other required analysis.

However, compared to the Eyes of Observer’s stringent requirements, the girl’s Eyes of Death merely needed her to comprehend death.

In other words, her Eyes of Death were even more terrifying.

Of course, the Eye of Observer’s ability had battlefield applications, technological potential, and even the capacity for mass production.

However, Shea’s Eyes of Death could only be wielded by her alone.

In the end, both had their strengths.

With a faint smile in his heart, Yu Zi Yu lifted his gaze and quietly studied the girl before him.

Sporting short, dark hair and eyes that held nothingness, her white blouse seemed to emphasize the fragility of her delicate frame.

Yet such a frail-looking girl possessed a power that even Yu Zi Yu couldn’t ignore.

[No wonder Snake Queen had guided her here. She is indeed worth nurturing.] Reaffirming this thought in his heart, Yu Zi Yu no longer hesitated.

Now, he had decided to grant this girl a truly precious wish.

It was worth noting that although the summoners could make their wishes, their interpretation of the wish was entirely up to Yu Zi Yu.

For instance, a simple wish to ‘become stronger’, Yu Zi Yu could make it so she broke through to Tier-4, or even Tier-5.

All of it was at Yu Zi Yu’s discretion.

If this girl had no value, Yu Zi Yu would’ve only converted 1% of the destiny and fortune Azure Dragon had stolen into the wish she desired.

But now, after discovering her terrifying talent, Yu Zi Yu had decided that he would convert 10% of fortune and destiny Azure Dragon had seized into her wish.

As for more, it was not that Yu Zi Yu was unwilling, it was that she simply could not withstand it.

All things in existence must follow the Principle of Equivalent Exchange.

The more terrifying the wish, the greater the karmic burden it brought.

And with her current strength, this girl couldn’t possibly bear too much Karma.

So, 10% of the stolen fortunes and destiny was her limit.

At that thought, Yu Zi Yu’s voice, resonant and compelling, echoed in the girl’s mind, “Do you wish to know… the meaning of existence?”

“Yes.” She nodded again and again, her excitement growing.

“Become strong. Become stronger… No one can tell you what the meaning of your existence is… Only by growing stronger, can you seek it for yourself. And all of that depends on you alone…” Yu Zi Yu offered an explanation, a rare feat on his part, his voice carrying a strange, eerie charm.

“Become stronger…” The girl murmured, momentarily dazed.

But for some reason she did not want to refute it.

A sense of spontaneous closeness stirred within her, making her trust this sacred presence instinctively.

“So… little girl, is your wish to become stronger?” A vast, boundless voice suddenly echoed across the Starry Sky, rippling in all directions.

It seemed to be asking the girl, yet it also felt as though it was declaring to the world.

“Yes, my wish is to become strong, stronger than ever before…” With sudden conviction, the girl gently nodded.

“Fine…” With a simple reply, Yu Zi Yu raised his head.

*Rooooaar…* A thunderous roar shook Heaven, horrific ripples spreading across the starry expanse.

Immediately after, the colossal Azure Dragon coiling around Earth began to move.

It exhaled mist and clouds, shaking the Heavens and stars alike.

And in that moment, the Dragon’s head opened wide and a brilliant azure beam of light shot forth, slicing through space, surging straight toward the girl standing silently atop the peak.

“Then… let me make you strong.”

With a hearty laugh, the Dragon’s roar soared to new heights.
