"Immortality? That can be lonely. And in the end, everyone will die. It doesn’t matter what you do to escape it—sooner or later, all shall taste death. It is already written; it’s only a matter of when and how.
But glory… glory is the answer.
Glory will outlive flesh and bones.
Glory is what we should strive for, not immortality."

Robin Burton was a young man who grew up with everything anyone could ever hope for: immense talent in cultivation, a sharp mind, and a wealthy family that would stop at nothing to protect and nurture him. He had everything—except the will to make use of it.

"Why should I walk the same path as my ancestors? Why must I seek strength just to defeat one rival or compete with another? That is not what I was born for!"

“…Heh\~” Robin let out a long sigh. “Pursuing power was never my goal. I left my family and secluded myself to escape those pointless struggles for authority. I wanted to explore the universe, and to explore myself first… yet time and again, I was dragged into devastating wars. I wanted to benefit people with my knowledge and immortalize my name, yet worlds fell and hundreds of billions died because of me. Ironic, hah?”

"The Cursed Behemoth has been killed!!!"


The Grand Hall, the place where the incarnations of wealthy and influential individuals from every sector and countless planets throughout the universe gathered solely to socialize with others of similar standing and listen to the greatest announcements, was now packed with people watching Lord Hedrick's final battle live together. This time, however, they weren't following the battle through their own small personal windows as usual, but through an enormous screen that broadcast every moment for everyone inside the hall to see, a massive public broadcast directly supported by the Soul Society itself.
