Celestial Overlord - Chapter 112 wage of sin

“Father! who am i really?” a young boy, who looked like a twelve year old, was sitting beside a man. The place was filled with darkness as the moonlight shone brightly filling the place.

The Father and son were sitting in the garden of Lee family. He smiled at his son’s question.

“why do you ask like that? Tian’er” he asked as he turned towards his son.

Tian Lee turned his gaze towards the man, who was sitting beside him. The man was his father, Tan Lee. With his eyes full of doubt and confusion, Tian Lee looked at his Father.

“I feel like i don’t belong here sometimes! And my powers” Tian Lee paused and he looked up. ” I feel like i can simply destroy this whole world with a swing of my hand” he spoke as he stared into the night sky.

Even though he was young, Tian Lee was able to tell. He sometimes felt like he didn’t belong to this world. The power he weilds was not something a living being of this world can imagine, even the great emperors of this world were like ants before him. His father was the only one, who he can ask all this.

Not everyone knows, but he and his father has always entered to a different place. Through a portal which was created by his father. He was trained by his father, to control the unfathomable power inside him. The place where he trains was not a normal place rather it was a totally different world.

Many questions and doubts raised in his head because of all this. Hearing his son’s words, Tan Lee smiled. He knew that a day will come, where he should tell the truth. But it was not that day now.

“Tian’er!” he called out making Tian Lee snap out of his thought. “Yes! Father” Tian Lee replied. There was confusion and doubts all over his face.

“You are my son and this is our family!” Tan Lee spoke as he looked straight into his son’s eyes. Hearing the words from his father, Tian Lee smiled. Even though he had doubts, the words of his father made him happy.

“A family doesn’t always mean, it has to be related by blood” Tan Lee muttered. Making Tian Lee unable to hear the sentence.

As they were talking, a voice came out from their back, startling them both. Just as they turned back, a shadow of an old women fell on them both.

“You two brats! it’s already past dinner time and you both haven’t ate!” madam Lee was standing there fuming with anger. The father and son duo were scared of this old women.

“What will happen to your health? you two brats should come and eat first!” she yelled loudly as she started dragging Tian Lee grabbing his ears.

“Grandma! it’s paining!” Tian Lee shouted while he was dragged. “Hmph! shut up Tian’er!” she shouted as she dragged Tian Lee to the dinner hall. She looked at her son as she asked “And You?”.

Tian Lee’s Father gave a wry smile. ” I will be there in a minute mother!” he replied as he scratched his head. “Hmph! Good then” she said as she walked down the garden entering the dinning hall while dragging Tian Lee.

Looking at the disappearing silhouette of old mandam and Tian Lee, he sighed. “Mother’s are really scary! in every world” he muttered.

He stared at the night sky, the moon was shining brightly, while the stars were twinkling. Tan Lee closed his eyes. “I hope you all are safe!” he said with a worried tone.

He took a deep breath. “The world has enough Gods, Demons, Devils and even Heroes!…. But now it needs a existence who will govern them all with his unfathomable power and strike fear in the hearts of the evil; an absolute ruler! an Overlord!” as he spoke, he looked at Tian Lee silhouette.

“No matter what the world says, you are my son Tian’er” he spoke in a soft tone. As he started walking towards the dining hall.

“One!” a domineering yet a cold voice resounded throughout the battlefield. Tian Lee stood there as his blue robe fluttered along with the breeze, with a sword, as the demon soldier’s body fell down into half.

Fear! a fear without even a glint of hope was seen in the eyes of the masses.
