Three Towers Game-Chapter 974 - 294: No Love at Dusk

In the Chaos Domain, Sagittarius returned to his throne.

Here, he suddenly felt a sense of aversion.

From the beginning, Sagittarius was very afraid, afraid of being killed by his other brothers and sisters.

So for him, the most comfortable approach was to spy, find a safe place, and hide there forever, then shoot a deadly arrow.

For a long time, he was grateful for his decision.

Especially when Ding Dong—Phoenix died at the hands of Scorpio.

When all of them received their first enhancement.

He was immensely grateful that he had made the right decision—no one could find him.

Even during the Fated Duel, if he hadn't been careless and believed no one could engage him in a Fated Duel, he wouldn't have shot that arrow.

If he hadn't shot that arrow, Wen Xishu wouldn't have been able to sense him, and the Fated Duel wouldn't have become effective.

And now, the Fated Duel belongs to Wen Xishu.

You could say that Sagittarius no longer has any weaknesses.

Yet, he began to loathe this place.

The warhorse with skin like stars appeared next to Sagittarius once more.

It was severely injured, emitting faint whimpers, gently rubbing its muzzle against its master.

Sagittarius's blue armor had already been repaired. It was indeed a Treasure, although it was shattered by Albert's punch, it soon restored to its original state.

"I've always been hiding, the Tower actually grants power based on one's personality."

"Leon loves battles, so he's been granted the strongest conquering power."

"Scorpio loves games, so his power is related to games, and it's the same for all living beings. The same goes for me..."

"Perhaps my escapist attitude is what granted me my current situation. What do you think?"

Once back within the Chaos Domain, Sagittarius's only friend was the warhorse.

This was his servant and his only, speaking friend.

The warhorse nodded.

"So I should change. Perhaps it was Wen Xishu and Albert who changed me."

"Humans... have grown so powerful, the Three Towers War might very well usher in its next phase."

"If I remain hidden here... then when the fate of Wen Xishu changes, how will I bask in the fortune brought by our destinies resonating?"

The warhorse sensed its master's intention but then suddenly shook its head.

Sagittarius smiled slightly:

"Are you worried... that I'll be found by the other brothers and sisters?"

"Indeed, I would worry about that, deactivating the domain myself is concerning."

The warhorse grew more puzzled, since the master knows, why would he still choose to leave?

Sagittarius looked towards the distant chaos:

"But you must understand, I'm fed up with this. Aside from Capricorn, I don't know whom I can trust."

"Even Capricorn is only because his ability happens to require me."

"If we strip away our interest-based bonds, we share a Companion Curse, but could we still be friends?"

The warhorse lowered its head.

Remaining within the Chaos Domain, not venturing to that colorful world, is neither due to liking it nor an absence of fear towards loneliness.

On the contrary, it knows that the master is indeed very lonely. And hates loneliness.

"I should venture out. I want to take a gamble."

Sagittarius stroked the neck of the warhorse:

"Would you be willing to travel with me? No longer observing from a fixed position but... starting to journey across the entire Three-Tower Battlefield."

The warhorse neighed to express its loyalty.

Sagittarius was very pleased:

"Actually, you needn't worry too much, I used to be sick of this place, but fear prevented me from leaving. But now, I'm not as fearful anymore."

"You know, I have a brother, Gemini."

"He was meant to be two people, and we've been searching for that person."

"I've always wondered who he'd choose as his brother, would it be one from our constellation? Or someone we entirely don't know?"

"This question has always troubled me, but now, it seems I have an answer."

"And because of this answer, I suddenly feel that the outside isn't so terrifying anymore."

"Even this failure doesn't seem so fearsome."

This time, Sagittarius was defeated by the legend and miracle of the Bunker.

But after thoroughly considering the recent conversation with Wen Xishu, Sagittarius discovered a clue.

"Scorpio isn't the only one who calls Gemini brother."

"Do you know my brother Wen Chaohua?"

"But you once targeted me, when I tried to summon him."

These words surfaced in Sagittarius's mind, combined with his past feelings...

He thought of something that excited him.

"When I aimed at him back then, what I felt was that I was aiming at my siblings."

"In the end, Wen Xishu told me that the reason he was targeted by me was that he was summoning his brother."

"Among my siblings, who else could have a 'brother' aside from us?"

All the miracles surrounding Wen Xishu seemed to be explainable in this moment.

A space opened through the Chaos Domain in front of Sagittarius.

"Since there's a resonance of fate, and since he spared me... maybe I should take a look at this world."

The warhorse didn't understand, but it felt its master's joyous emotions.

It also knew that from this day on, both it and its master would change their original way of life.

Perhaps the master would also find life more thrilling due to this decision.

...

...

Bunker.

At night, the ceiling would simulate night effects, the lights would dim, and stars would be visible.

The Bunker wasn't known as a city that never sleeps; at night, people naturally have a desire to put down what they're doing and rest.
