Chapter 583: City of Fury

Athena's words made Rocky think for a long time—chess pieces and players...

Was he ready to play a game with the myriad players in the sky?

Rocky didn't know the answer to that question, or perhaps he didn't even need to know, because the world wouldn't give anyone time to prepare for such things.

But without a doubt, as he chose to stand alone against Heavenly Ancestor City, this seemingly inconspicuous decision had pushed him inexorably from a chess piece to a player's position, and that much was certain.

Thus, Rocky was very clear about what he had to do—he couldn't rely on anyone anymore. Everything that happened from now on depended solely on himself. This was the price to be paid for becoming a player, but from then on, no one could be above him, even the Sky Alliance to him was merely an opponent in the same sky, nothing more.
