Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver novel Chapter 2882

Wilbur emerged from the Dragon Confinement Spell, and Heaton smiled, saying, "Congratulations, Wilbur, you've succeeded."

"No, this is just the beginning."

Though Wilbur had spent 300 thousand years cultivating in the Dragon Confinement Spell, only ten thousand years had passed in the outside world. However, this time had felt incredibly long to Wilbur. The deaths of Augheimer and Felix weighed heavily on him, and while he had been powerless before, he did not want to miss the opportunity this time.

"Heh," Heaton chuckled. "So, are you still clinging to the past? Even three hundred thousand years couldn't change your mind, eh? Do you still want to become the dimensional guardian's servant, return to the past, and save your friends?"

"Yes," Wilbur replied resolutely.

"But have you ever considered that perhaps everything you're holding on to is meaningless?" Heaton said as he picked up a bottle of beer and drank deeply.

Wilbur, with a cold expression, responded, "Others may think it's meaningless, but I believe it has meaning. If I can't resolve this in my own way, I will forever hate myself."

Glancing at the empty bottle, Wilbur placed it on the table and said, "Mister Heaton, if there is an answer, I'd rather it be one I find myself, not one dictated by fate. Don’t you want to give yourself a satisfactory answer to your past and future?"

Memories can be unbearably heavy, and most people cannot change the painful aspects of their past. Heaton opened his mouth, intending to dissuade Wilbur, but words seemed to have failed him. Instead, he said, "You only have half a million years of cultivation. Even if your Dragon Confinement Spell can accelerate time by a hundredfold, you'll still need another fifteen thousand years of training. After that, when your cultivation reaches two million years, you'll finally qualify to participate in the dimensional guardian's servant selection contest. But even then, there's no guarantee you'll succeed."

"It doesn't matter. I believe I will succeed eventually," Wilbur answered resolutely.
