Lightning Is the Only Way
Chapter 1146
"There is no one that elicits these kinds of feelings from me," Mortis answered. "I see so many different Cultivators, but they all look the same to me. They are either strangers, friends, enemies, or whatever. There is no difference."
"So, do humans need some kind of connection with a stranger for love to exist in the future?" Azure asked. She was genuinely curious about all of this.
Mortis' brows furrowed. "No, not really."
"Then why does that have to exist for you to try?" Azure asked.
For the first time, Mortis didn't answer immediately.
Why didn't he just get to know more people?
Was it really necessary that his spark had to exist for a relationship to blossom?
Obviously not.
There were plenty of mortals and Cultivators that got together with people after just being friends for years on end.
There had been no romantic attraction between them in the beginning, but they had eventually ended together.
For some reason, a kind of pressure appeared in Mortis' insides.
'Is it because of my past?' he thought. 'I've felt how Gravis have felt for so long. I've felt these intense bursts of warmth and love inside myself so many times.'
Mortis looked into the distance. 'Is it because I fear disappointment? Do I fear that my eventual love won't be as vibrant as the love Gravis feels for Stella?'
A moment of silence passed.
'And then, this entire thing with Joyce happened, which confirmed my fear. I was attracted to Joyce, but I never felt anything remotely as intense as what Gravis felt for Stella back then.'
'And then, Joyce died, and I felt like my ability to love died with her.'
Mortis glanced over at Azure, who only looked into the distance with a thoughtful expression.
'I think I fear disappointment,' Mortis thought. 'It might be possible that I'm afraid of losing my hope. I can dream about how great love is and how it makes me feel, but I'm afraid that my imagination is off.'
Another moment of silence.
'If even love turns out to be a disappointment, what else is there left but greyness in my life?'
'If love doesn't live up to my expectations, what reason do I even have left to live?'
"Azure, why do you cultivate?" Mortis asked.
Azure was surprised by the question. How did Mortis even come up with that question?
"Why do I cultivate?" Azure asked.
Mortis nodded.
Azure remained silent.
"I don't know," she said after several seconds. "Honestly, I haven't really thought about it. Living just feels natural to me, and it's like something I just have to do."
"Is there something in your life that you don't want to lose, no matter what?" Mortis asked.
Azure remained silent for a bit longer as her expression became uncomfortable.
"Not really," Azure answered with an unsure voice.
Why do you go through the fear and
