Reborn: Apocalypse Ready, War Goddess by My Side
Chapter 372 A Lesson at Death’s Door
Steven felt as if he had lost all sensation.
Yet everything around him was still there.
Bianca was still crying in a complete breakdown. Eric was still there too.
His fist was less than an inch from him.
What’s going on?
Suddenly, a familiar voice echoed in his mind.
“Does it feel good, being this close to death?”
Steven’s eyes widened as he heard his grandfather’s voice.
He looked around, but no matter where he searched, he couldn’t see him.
Still, that voice filled his heart with excitement.
So his guess was right. He really was from a powerful lineage.
“Grandpa!” His eyes turned red.
“How does despair feel?”
The words struck something deep inside him.
His heart went still.
Yes. In that moment just now, he truly thought he was going to die, and he didn’t want to die.
Steven shook his head. “It feels terrible.”
“Do you know where you went wrong?”
He didn’t know how to answer.
Brian’s voice continued.
“Today, I’m using the Reads to teach you a lesson. There are things you must remember.”
Steven looked dazed. A lesson? He still nodded.
“At least you didn’t completely lose control when you heard your home was destroyed. You kept your reason. That part didn’t disappoint me.
“But there were still mistakes. You need to reflect on them.
“First mistake. You should have used that mysterious golden power and killed Abigail and Spencer immediately. Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit.

“Of course, you were thinking about the consequences. That’s understandable. You didn’t know I could protect you. But next time, when facing enemies, you must kill decisively. Do you understand?”
Steven was still in a daze, but he nodded. “Got it.”
Brian went on. “Second mistake. After killing Abigail, you got lost in grief over your friend’s death. If death cannot be avoided, then do not hesitate. Leave immediately. That’s the best choice. Don’t expose yourself to danger. Do you understand?”
Steven nodded again, though his mind was still searching for his grandfather.
“Third mistake. You went in alone, thinking you could handle everything. Abigail was insane, that is true. If you had brought others, she might have killed them. But if you think only about saving others and ignore your own life, you are just being reckless. Do you understand?”
Steven nodded.
Yes, I’ve been reckless. But all I wanted was to protect everyone in both lives…
“Grandpa, I got it. I won’t do it again!”
Brian let out a faint sigh. “I know you care deeply. But you must stay calm in the face of danger.
“If you cannot remain calm at all times, then next time, when Bianca is in danger, you will only feel even more despair.
“Remember what I said.
“Now, I will clear these obstacles for you.”
Steven’s heart trembled.
What’s happening? Why couldn’t anyone move?
It’s that mysterious expert…
