Chapter 1019 The Sacrifice
The other spirits began to fade as well. They stood tall and straight, dressed in their most worn–out
combat uniforms.
However, their unyielding silhouettes radiated strength, as if they could challenge all the injustices in the
world. Their eyes held no resentment, only a hopeful vision for the future.
Wynter’s emotions surged as she watched them.
Axel noticed her reluctance. He knew she was good in every way, but she was soft–hearted. As someone
who had always looked after the young, Axel felt compelled to offer Wynter some comfort.
“Do you think I’m clueless?” Axel laughed heartily, rubbing his head. “The fact that you’re from the future just means one thing–we’ve already died in battle.
“People die, and souls dissipate. Anything that lingers isn’t real.”
Axel remained optimistic as he spoke. “I used to dream that if our platoon had just one of those
annihilator aircraft, we could have saved so many lives.
“My soldiers wouldn’t have had to die. We could have defeated so many Foplya enemies. If we had this technology, would they dare to bully us like they did? No, they wouldn’t. They’re cowards!”
Axel’s expression grew serious. “You’ve made my dream come true. You’re not from our time, but I’m glad you were born in a better one. I have no regrets.”
Axel exclaimed, “I’m so happy. I’ve never felt this fulfilled! Life is short, but I’ve lived it to the fullest!”
With those words, Axel vanished. He couldn’t be held back. Just as he said, they were shocked by the presence of these visitors from the future.
Nearly a century had passed, yet their goals had been achieved. They had glimpsed the future, and there was nothing more gratifying.
When the red streak appeared, the soldiers shared a collective understanding. Although Wynter’s words were fragmented, they understood her mission.
Wynter intended to make the formation disappear, but it would be a sin if she did it herself. They would
do it themselves so that she could leave with a clear conscience.
Wynter’s hands trembled slightly. She felt emotional as she understood the meaning behind their sacrifice. Despite her immense power, they still saw her as a child.
The young man said, “They chose to disappear on their own. You don’t have to bear any personal burdens when breaking the formation.”
“I understand,” Wynter replied, clutching the urn tightly. Her throat was hurting, but she had one last task to complete.
To truly break the formation, there should be no regrets left within it. She realized she had overlooked
someone.

The boy facing her, the soured veteran within the formation, stood still. While everyone else was fading away, he remained because he beart was filled with hatred.
He was such a young child but lost his entire team overnight. How could he not harbor hatred?

These were the oftrators residual souls. They were surprised that they were still allowed to linger. When They saw Wyte, they underwood she had given them one last moment.
The cultivators smiled warmly as they looked at the young boy
