Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave

'My dream?'

Geoffrey blinked a couple of times, thinking hard about what his dream was.

Now, he knew that the whole world was in danger. All he wanted to do was save the world and reunite with his parents.

Pondering for a while, he wondered if those were part of his dream.

However, he soon concluded that they weren't.

Despite everything being hazy at the moment, Geoffrey knew this wasn't his ultimate dream.

His mother was the leader of the Cloud Hall, and his father was a legend in every world.

While he had lived his whole life in a safe environment, he couldn't help but feel like he was in a prison. He couldn't make decisions on his own, and he couldn't leave without permission.

He couldn't live a life he wanted in the Cloud Hall or the fairy palace.

Ever since Zen went to the Source World, Geoffrey had stayed in his inner world. But he was his father's tool. Whenever Zen needed him to decipher Sanskrit words, he would summon him.

Although Zen had given him the illusion of freedom in his inner world, sometimes even creating obstacles for him, Geoffrey knew that everything was still under his father's control. Ultimately, he was safe there, and never needed to stare death in the face.

Due to his experiences growing up, Geoffrey didn't really care about anything, since he couldn't even be the master of his own life.

As he reflected on his past, he found that his days of happiness only really started when he had set foot in the Abstruse Energy World from the Deleting Space.

There, he had encountered so many dangers.

His parents weren't by his side, so he finally felt the thrill of courting death.

Despite the danger, Geoffrey was very happy.

Then, it clicked. "My dream is to travel the worlds freely!" he exclaimed.

Even when Geoffrey gave his answer, the consciousness still did not have any reaction. He, Elder Xue, and the others continued to move along the green lines, with no obstructions before them.
