Chapter 376 Brian’s Last Lesson
Grandpa had been watching me all along.
Was Grandpa also there during Operation Moonfall? Why didn’t he do anything?
And… He had always known about my beast–type Divine Sigil.

Brian shook his head. “It’s not really a test. I’m simply giving you a lesson within my ability. Everything you have experienced these days, you must reflect on it carefully.”
Steven nodded seriously.
Brian continued, “A person’s choices matter. After this, I hope all of you have learned something.”
“If someone wants to kill me, I strike first.
“This is the mindset you must have when facing God Eaters or powerful beasts. The word ‘kill‘ is something you still need to learn.”
He looked at Steven. “I know you have many questions, but we’ll talk about them later.”
Steven had more than just questions.
Grandpa is such a powerful figure.
So everything I went through in my past life–the danger, the losses–was he protecting me all along?
Brian turned to face the group.
“Alan, during Operation Moonfall, if Steven hadn’t told you the truth about the Moon Sky Fox, your ending would have been very different.”
Alan was stunned.
Brian continued calmly, “You’ve now stepped onto a path of revenge. Your future danger will increase sharply.
“I can’t protect my grandson forever.
“Now that I have revealed myself, I must leave.”
Everyone was shaken. Leave?
Alan’s eyes flickered. “To the Heavenly Gate?”
Steven looked at his grandfather. In those aged eyes, he seemed to catch a trace of reluctance.
Brian sighed. “Yes. I could have stayed by your side for a few more years, but I revealed myself ahead of time.
“The agreed time has come. I must return to the Heavenly Gate.”

Steven’s breathing grew unsteady.
“Why?”
Finished
Brian’s gaze shifted slightly as he lied. “Those who guard the Heavenly Gate follow an unwritten rule. When they return to Draconia to raise their descendants, they cannot reveal their true identity. Once they do, they must go back. As for how their descendants turn out, that’s up to them.”
Everyone was surprised that such a rule existed.
Steven felt dazed.
Everyone’s hearts trembled. Divine Eternal!
His gaze swept across them.
“Peter, Darlene, Theo, Danny, and Louie… You guys should withdraw from the team.”
“Grandpa!” Steven called out.

He knew his grandfather spoke bluntly, but saying it so directly still hurt.
Brian said, “Let me be the villain here. I concluded this after I investigated all of you.
Finished
“If Alan wants revenge, not only for Douglas but also for his mother, then this path will lead to death. If you do not withdraw, the five of you will certainly die.”
Alan suddenly looked up at Brian.
The others were shocked.
Steven opened his mouth, wanting to say something.
Brian continued, “Those I named will die. The rest of you shouldn’t think you are safe. Your chance of death is still over fifty percent.
“Alan, you understand this.”
Alan looked at Brian and fell silent.
Brian turned to Steven and said, “I’m not pushing them away. I’m trying to let them live. If you don’t believe me, I know your next destination is Orroux. After a few battles there, you will understand. At that time, you’ll make your own choice.”
Peter smiled faintly. “Mr. Fisher, we understand your intentions. We don’t blame you–we appreciate it.”
