Strongest Hammer God novel Chapter 1072

The Overseer tried once again to use a ball of False Death on the World Wall, but yet again, she pulled back.

Her hands shook as she glared at the World Wall with gritted teeth and terrified eyes.

'Just do it! You've spent almost 100,000 years on this! You've learned nothing new within the last 20,000 years! It's clear that this is as good as it's going to get!'

Her hand moved the ball of False Death forward, but moments later, she violently pulled it back.

'You're so close!'

'You know how this works!'

'You know what you have to do!'

'So what if you don't know what you have to do afterward?! You only get one shot, but if you never take that shot, you have zero shots!'

'Just one shot!'

'Do you want to remain in this cage forever?!'

'There is an entire world out there!'

'Your journey isn't over!'

'Show some guts and do it!'

She pushed forward, but her arm shook violently just before it touched the World Wall.

Feelings of deep terror rose inside her.

She was going to die!

She didn't want to die!

But she had to risk it!

The arm went back and forth.

'Please, just do it. Just do it! Stop being so indecisive! Why are you so hesitant?! Which powerful being hasn't risked their life?!'

Fear was battling conviction.

Courage was battling instincts.

Raw and unending desire was battling common sense.

Frustration was battling logic.

Hope was battling hopelessness.

A distorted expression of hatred was tainted by fearful eyes.

Conviction was betrayed by shaky hands.

'If you don't do this, you will forever remain here!'

'You will never attain your freedom if you don't act now!'

'You must do it!'

'Take the shot!'

'0.001% is higher than 0%!'

'You've waited for so long!'

She pulled her entire body back as a huge ball of False Death appeared on her right fist.

'It's now or never!'

'All or nothing!'

'Death or freedom!'

She punched forward, the ball of False Death perfectly synchronized with the fluctuations of the World Wall.

'You won't die!'

BANG!

The fist hit the World Wall, shaking it. For just a moment, its color distorted.

Her fist remained on the World Wall.

There was no False Death on it.

Her other fist lightly hit the World Wall before she fell forward.

'I can't.'

She fell to her knees, her fists pressing against the World Wall.

'I... I... I can't.'

Gritted teeth and clenched fists were joined by solitary drops of water, falling from the Overseer's face.

'Why can't I do it?'

'Why do I refuse to risk my life?!'

'Why can't I be stronger?'

'I'm a coward.'

'I'm a prisoner.'

'I'm weak.'

The Overseer remained silent.

'A billion years of stagnation.'

'A billion years of wasted efforts.'

'A billion years of nothing.'

'A life wasted.'

'I just want to get out.'

'I just want to see the outside.'

'But I'm a beast. I'm not supposed to ascend.'

'I'm supposed to die so that humans become stronger. But why should I accept that fate? I don't want to die. I don't want to be someone else's opportunity!'

'I can be just as good as humans! I can also comprehend Laws! I can also fuse my Aspects! Even if I couldn't, I would still find a way to rival them!'

'I'm not worse than humans! I'm not worth less than them!'

The Overseer weakly collapsed onto her knees as she looked downward with an empty expression.

'But that's not my choice.'

'I don't get to determine value in this world. The world has deemed me worthless. I don't believe I am useless, but...'

More tears streamed down her face.

'Why am I disagreeing with reality?'

'I've tried fighting reality for so long.'

'I've tried everything.'

'But nothing's changed.'

Her face turned to look up at the sky.

'I can't escape.'
