Chapter 641 Departure and Determination Epilogue
1 DAY LATER
[Marcus]: ...
Today was both a happy and sad day for Marcus and his allies, as this was the day that he will be leaving the Traveler’s World.
He considers this day as his happy day, as he will be back to exploring other worlds again, which is a chance for him to get stronger.
As for why he thinks that today was also a sad day, it was because Marcus was not willing to just to leave the Traveler’s World, a place which he had already considered to be his second home.
[Marcus]: ....
No matter how much Marcus was interested on roaming on different worlds, there is a strange feeling inside his heart that makes him hesitant to leave.
So much was his hesitation that he’s not sure if he should even leave. But Marcus knew that he cannot just stay in this world any longer.
After all, Leader Alex and Leader Delia, the two Travelers that Marcus idolizes, were about to leave already.
Since they are fine with leaving, then why should Marcus stay?
[Marcus]: ....
That’s right.
Today was the day that Leader Alex and Leader Delia, the two Travelers who had established the group \\u003cWANDERERS\\u003e, will be brought towards their new worlds.
They had no say to prevent this, as these two had already reached their 1-year limit of stay in the Traveler’s World.
Such was the rule here in the Traveler’s World, and Marcus has to follow it too.
**********
Fortunately for Marcus, his departure date was still a few hours away from the current time, which gives him enough time to prepare for his new world.
A few hours of time is enough to give Marcus a leeway to buy a lot of items for his new adventure, something that he was intending to do.
But right now was not the time for some window-shopping.
[Marcus]: I can buy my items later, as I still have time and money for that. But right now, what I should do is simple! I must see Leader Alex’s and Leader Delia’s departure with my own eyes! I refuse to do anything else before they can even leave!
That’s right.
Marcus was planning to watch the departure of his beloved leaders, and there is no way that he will not miss it.
Even if someone tries to attack him now, Marcus will just ignore it, as seeing the departure of his Leaders is much more important!
[Marcus]: Leader Alex and Leader Delia are two of the best people that I have known. As such, I must see them leave with my own eyes!
With this desire overpowering his mind, Marcus was willing to do anything just to watch them.
But luckily for him, he did not have to do such drastic actions.
Both Leader Alex and Leader Delia accepted Marcus’ request to watch them, which leads Marcus to his current position today.
[Marcus]: ....
Right now, Marcus and his companions found themselves standing near Leader Alex and Leader Delia, and the only thing separating Marcus from the two was a powerful force field covering their surroundings.
This force field was paper-thin and transparent, which allowed Marcus to see the two leaders in their full glory.
This proximity made Marcus feel extremely happy, as if he was already on cloud-nine. In fact, Marcus was so happy that he could have asked for an autograph from the two leaders already.
It was fortunate that there was a force-field halting his tracks, forcing the poor Marcus to just watch the leaders with his eyes.
[Marcus]: ....
With his nearness to his two idols, all that Marcus should feel right now was happiness.
But since all of them are bound to be separated with each other, aside from joy, there was also a slight melancholy present inside Marcus.
A melancholy, which was also laced with a trace of admiration deep from his heart.
[Marcus]: Sigh, Leader Alex and Leader Delia sure are impressive. Even if they can lord over this world, they did not choose to do some manipulations just to stay here.... They chose to leave, and they did not even complain!
There was a large amount of awe inside Marcus as he stared at the two leaders, as he knew all the things that Leader Alex and Leader Delia has done for him and the group.
Each one of their actions were worthy of praise, something that Marcus knew will be hard for him to emulate.
[Marcus]: Leader Alex was the strongest member of our group, and he’s also the one who used his life to defend us all. He even placed himself in a 7-month coma just to save us! Such kind of leader.... Should be praised all year-round!
[Marcus]: As for Leader Delia, she was the one who shouldered this group while Leader Alex was in coma. She did everything that she can to stabilize this group, and she did not even ask us of anything! She was just happy on helping us!
With these kinds of feats performed by these two leaders, there is no doubt inside Marcus’ mind that if they were to stay, the \\u003cWANDERERS\\u003e will surely flourish more.
It’s really too bad that they had to leave now...
[Marcus]: ....
But even though these two powerful Travelers had managed to create a massive group of Rookie Travelers, they did not let out a squeak of complaint from their forced departure.
They accepted what was happening to them, showcased by the resolute expressions on their faces.
Such resolution just made Marcus feel more admiration to these two, to the point that he wants to join them.
Marcus of course knew that this was impossible, so he just stayed in his place as he watched the bodies of Leader Alex and Leader Delia disappear in front of him.
"Shula~"
At this point, Marcus just sighed as he saw that his idols were already leaving, with the power of the teleportation bringing them to their new worlds.
He knew that he cannot stop it, so he just watched as his two idols were seemingly erased from existence...
[Marcus]: And there they are. Our greatest leaders have already left, leaving behind a group that will face a lot of challenges. But with the promise made by the other Returners, I am sure that the \\u003cWANDERERS\\u003e will stay intact. I just hope... that I will be able to have the chance to come back here in the future.
[Marcus]: Wait, why are you making it sound as if you can’t come back, Marcus? Of course you can come back! You should just be so powerful, that the world will allow you to do what you want!
[Marcus]: Yes, I must be carefree, just like what Leader Alex told me to do!
The whole departure process only lasted for a few seconds, but that few seconds was one of the longest time in Marcus’ life.
It was a good thing that it already ended, as now, Marcus can focus back to improving himself.
[Marcus]: I still have a lot to do, and a lot of paths to progress. I know that this will be difficult, but with the help of my companions, I am sure that I will eventually reach the peak! So just wait for me, Leader Alex! Someday, I will also gain the right to stand beside you!
With his Leaders already gone from this world, Marcus did not dare linger anymore. There is still a lot for him to do, and daydreaming here will not help him.
[Marcus]: Sigh, I wonder how long it will take me to reach Sixth Stage. I hope I can do it in under 100 Years...
