Someone had to shoulder the fate of the Human Race. In the past, James led the Human Race against the Four Calamities and brought about a golden age. However, the peace that was brought about was superficial. As such, he hoped that Jacopo would shoulder the responsibility.
“Dad.”
With an unwilling look on his face, Jacopo said, “I don’t want to be the Lord of the Human Race. Why can’t Xandros continue being the Lord? He’s managing everything in order.”
James fell into deep thought.
He was contemplating whether to tell Jacopo the truth. Though Jacopo was already a Grand Emperor, he was but an immature brat in James’ eyes.
“Jacopo, things aren’t as simple as they seem. It’s complicated out there, and the Human Race needs a leader. I can’t show myself because I need to search for your mother. So, I’ll have to leave this in your hands.”
Jacopo fell silent.
James continued, “Don’t worry. You’ll understand why I did this when you’re older. Now, all you need to do is to prepare to become the next Lord of the Human Race. You’ll understand the rest in the future.”
James did not say much. After saying that, he turned to leave and went searching for Henrik and Qusai, who were cultivating in the Human Realm.
“I’m on board,” said James.
“Good.” Delighted, Henrik said, “I’ll relay your message to the Demon Realm. My master will send powerful figures to help you unite the Human Race.”
Qusai chimed in, “The Fiend Race will provide you the support as well.”
“Sure.” James nodded.
