Limitless Evolution: The Path To Immortality

Chapter 190  Darkless City [1] - The New and Improved

On the other side of the continent, Silas' white-haired figure could be seen walking down a fairly busy road. Many people looked at him and bowed, while others, especially the younger ones, looked at him in awe.

Some looked at him with a semblance of fear in their eyes, but they were usually criminals in the first place, so to Silas, it didn't matter.

Silas didn't really care about them. Even if they were criminals, unless someone witnessed them committing a crime against one of Darkless' laws, he wouldn't do anything against them.

He could see their souls and knew if it was tainted or not with the blood of others. At his current level, that was about the most he could do. He had theorized that he would be able to see much more once he broke through to the sapphire core, but until then, he would have to do with his current mystic eyes.

However, despite his lack of satisfaction, his mystic eyes were not as bad as they used to be.

Silas could see for miles on end clearly. His vision would only begin to show any signs of lacking once he tried to look past the planet's curve. Gilea was much larger than Earth. He had never really made the calculation, but he was certain that it was around 3 to 4 times larger than Earth. His calculations would have been more precise if he had tested his theory, but for now, he based it on how far he could see at different altitudes.

However, throughout the last 6 years, he had much more to do than measure the planet's size. That could come in his retirement years when he's completed everything he ever wanted to achieve. Of course, that thought lay in the assumption that he wouldn't be dead by them.

There was also the chance that he would never achieve all his goals within his lifetime, but that was only more reason for him to do everything he could to learn as much as he could about the planet he was on, the energy that powered the people within it, and somehow find a way to do everything he failed to do on Earth.

That was his goal, after all. At first, it wasn't nearly as clear as he would have maybe liked it to be, but he had a lot of time to think over the years.

Every time he thought about his years on Earth, he would have a feeling suddenly appear in his chest. It wasn't guilt... No. He felt no guilt for what he had done.

He felt dissatisfied.

He had spent his entire life pursuing so many goals, yet he died without getting to take his last goal and watch it grow into fruition. He had failed that day. He didn't like it, but it was the truth.

So, it wasn't just his hunger for knowledge that was causing him to want so much from the world he was currently in. It was his dissatisfied self that wanted more out of him.

"Sigh... I'm getting side tracked." Silas thought while reminding himself of his main goal.

To save his family and allow them to live a better life.

Because unlike when he lived on Earth, he now had people to care about.

He walked for a few more minutes and entered a forest. He could have just flown but didn't see a reason to. He just wanted to think for a while on his own, so he thought walking would be much better for him.

After traversing the forest, Silas stood before a tree and touched it.

A handprint shone on the tree before him, and eventually, the ground under him shifted before sinking.

He was quickly taken to one of the bridges and walked down it. When he went to the front, the people working there looked at him for a moment before smiling and giving him a salute.

"Nice day, sir?" One of them said. It was a woman with ordinary black hair and dark brown eyes. She looked like she was in her forties but still had a youthful energy around her.

"Indeed." Silas smiled at her and walked into the city.

Looking at it, he couldn't help but feel a tinge of pride.

The city has changed over the last 6 years. If it looked like a gothic Victorian city before, now it looks closer to an early 20th-century city in Britain.

The streets were bustling as usual, and now, people didn't look ragged or like criminals. Everyone was far too terrified to be a criminal. Within one year of Silas being the new Judgement, the crime rate had dropped so much that it became more likely to find 100 gold coins in one of the alleyways rather than find someone from the city committing a crime.

If Silas could remember correctly, there have been quite a few of those cases lately. Just 100 gold coins lying on a sidewalk. No one knew how they got there, but everyone was particularly happy since it allowed them to buy quite a lot of stuff from other cities.

Looking around, Silas' eyes caught the figure of two children running, and without skipping a beat, he took a step back and watched them run past him.

They were laughing, playing some kind of game that he didn't really recognize.

He couldn't help but smile when he saw them so happy.

Walking into the markets, Silas' eyes darted around for a few moments. Quite a few people could be seen trying to buy stuff; however, they weren't using the kingdom's currency.

Instead, they were using mana cores to pay for items.

He made a change when he realized that he would become the enemy of the kingdom, so without hesitation, he changed the currency.

No one really complained since most people within the city could fight, and they would exchange their cores for coins anyway. Those who had money on the side simply exchanged them with cores, making it much easier for people to buy things throughout the city.

After a while, Silas found himself in front of a house. It wasn't significantly larger than the houses around them since the city had been renovated to make life easier for the people, but it was one of the only houses that had two floors.

This was Nymira's house... Or at least it used to be.

A key went into the door's lock and jiggled around momentarily. A low click entered Silas' ears, and without thinking twice, he walked into the house and closed the door behind him.

"I'm home!"
