NovelTrueChapter 607: The Richest Place on Earth
"Willpower is a force every successful person has. The heroes, and villains, of history all had it. Sused it to
hurt and conquer. Others used it to help and heal. The thing you faced had that willpower. It knew how to use the
power it had, and it used it again and again."
"I'm not saying you're weak," the System added, quiet but firm. "You've done a lot for your age. But you have a
long way to go. What's coming needs you to be better than you are now."
Even with the heaviness of the counsel, the Love System didn’t sound sorry for Nnenna. It sounded sure,
because it believed Nnenna could rise to the challenge.
"Why me? Why not someone else?" Nnenna asked, standing now, pacing the room. "I'm already working so hard.
And you say it’s not enough. Now you tell| don’t even have time. What am | supposed to do? What if | don’t
want this destiny?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Unfortunately, there are consequences, the Love System said slowly. This fight, your life, your destiny, didn't
start with you. It began long ago. It has brought pain across generations. The more recent ones being your
parents’ deaths, your kingdom falling, what you suffered in Lionara. Even after your second chance, you've kept
losing people you love. You almost lost more."
Nnenna'’s steps faltered, the weight of it pressing down on her.
"If you keep living like this," the System continued, "it will not stop. And even if you died, the cycle wouldn't end.
Someone else would be born and inherit the sburden. That's what this war does, it passes itself down."
The System's voice was blunt, not cruel. "That's why you're here. That's why you were given this chance. Maybe
no one else can carry this weight the way you can. Maybe no one else would fight like you do."
"Stop it!" Nnenna snapped, pacing hard now. "You can’t forceto accept a destiny | don’t want. This isn’t just
about me. What about the people around me? How many more will have to get hurt? How many more will die so
| do do this? | don’t believe this is only my fight. It feels like speople's fate is to die so | can live, so | can
finish what I’m supposed to do." Her voice broke on the last word.
"It’s not a one sided coin," the Love System said quietly. "And I'm glad you're thinking like this. You're right,
swill have to die along the way. That's a hard truth."
Nnenna stilled. The room felt colder.
"But listen," the System continued, patient and steady. "Life is messy. Destiny isn't a solo job. Everyone has a
part to play. Slives are long and quiet; sare short but burn bright. People give what they can, their
strength, their time, even their lives. That's how change has always come."
Nnenna’s jaw tightened. "So you expectto accept that? To watch people die?"
"Not expect," explain, the System corrected. "If my master wants you for this, it's because you can do what
others can’t. That doesn’t make their loss meaningless. It means the choice is heavier. But think of those you
would save. Think of what they would want for you. If Somto knew the scale of the mission, if he knew his
mission meant more than he could possibly imagine, | believe he would choose it a thousand times over. And not
just because he loved you, but because he understood purpose."
Nnenna stared at the floor, anger and grief twisting together. The words landed like stones, true or not, they did
not make the weight any lighter. She rubbed her temples and swallowed.
"If that’s what this is," she whispered, "then tellhow to make it stop hurting others."
"I can’t. You have to consider that speople choose this," the Love System said, voice steady. "They may be
willing to play the part that helps you fulfill yours. If you refuse your role, the consequences could be worse than
you imagine. How many more people will be hurt while that thing hunts for you? How many more will be
sacrificed while you delay doing what must be done? How many will be damned if you fail?"
The words hung in the air, heavy and cold.
