Chapter 396 Birthday

"Oh, Mister Continental Ruler is personally here? To whom do I owe this visit?" Robin chuckled when he heard Billy's voice, and spoke, still not turning to the door

"Ahaha-hah! So funny! Wasn't it you who sent a shadow sword to summon me?" Billy took a few steps up to the balcony, placed the cake on the small table in front of Robin, and smiled, "This is your first official appearance since The Great Green Hill Declaration, where have you been all this time?"

"Hmm... Touring the ancestral continent previously made me realize that sitting in a meditation position behind fortified walls is nothing compared to seeing the world, meditating on its stories, and seeing the truth behind it." Robin said, looking toward the horizon

"Oh?" Billy sat down in an empty chair that had been prepared for him next to Robin, "Are you really just meditating on stories and truths? I don't think you are that bored.. your aura seems much deeper than the last time I saw you. Even though you were already at the pinnacle of the Sainthood Realm... Hoy, you didn't break through to the Sagehood Realm yet, are you?"

"Haha, you have a keen eye, your new position seems to have given you special powers! Haha" Robin laughed loudly and then shook his head, "But alas no, I haven't broken through to the Sagehood realm yet, there is still an obstacle in front of me blocking the way, How do I explain it to you…

It feels like… I'm blind in a very spacious hall and trying to find the way out, It's true that I'm moving forward but I don't know in which direction I walk, I don't know whether to walk towards the door or I will just end up running into another wall… Heh~ Reaching the fourth level of the Master Law of Truth might take a lot more time than I expected ."

"Hmm, I guess I should be worried too since the hopes of Planet Jura rest on your shoulders, especially when it comes to exploring techniques and laws… but I'm not worried in the slightest." Billy scratched his hair and spoke, "If there's only one blind man who can take the right path and make it to the door with certainty, it's you. It's only a matter of time."

"Hehe, thanks for the morale boost, I guess I needed this..." Robin chuckled again, then pointed at the cake, "So... Do you want to tell me what that is?"

"…Huh? Don't you really know? Are you saying you randomly summoned me today?" Billy opened his eyes wide and said surprised

"Just a day like any other, what's special about it?" Robin raised his eyebrows and asked, then looked at Theo, "Do you know anything about what he's saying?"

"Today is the fourteenth of the eighth month, it's your birthday, father." Theo smiled and replied

"Huh? ..the days became the same since I left the Burtons and went to the cave that day… Wait, How do you both know that?!" Robin mumbled slightly, then raised his head and asked Theo again

"This has become general information in the entire planet since the opening of the space portals. The questions of the people about their new Emperor made many searches after your origins, information like this has long been found out and published. In fact, there are celebrations all over the world now, and an official holiday has been declared in the Sacred Tree Continent on the occasion of your birthday." Theo replied

"Huh? Haha what a useless holiday, I don't even know how old I am!" Robin laughed out loud

"Do you want to know?" A big smile appeared on Billy's face as he jokingly asked

"Actually no I don't..." Robin shrugged

Billy furrowed his brows and continued, "I'll tell you anyway, and this is not a secret, anyone can find out by digging a bit into the historical records... You are now exactly 187 years old."

"…187 years? That sounds like a lot, and much fewer than I expected too…" Robin leaned his back on the chair and spoke in a low voice, "All those events I have gone through... I feel like they could fill thousands of years of anyone's lifetime, but looking back, I feel like I just entered that cave yesterday... Life is really something extremely profound."

Billy raised his eyebrows slightly, this was not the reaction he expected when he brought the cake and came to celebrate with him, how did the celebration turn into a meditation on the origins of life?!

"Cough cough, I think this number is unfair honestly, you are no doubt born 187 years ago but your body is much younger I think you are in your fifties now?" Billy wanted to return the dialogue to joy again, so he opened a topic aside while cutting the cake

"Haha, I think you are right. After the All-Seeing God sudden intervention that day, he reverted me back to the age of 12. If we count based on this number, then... my physical age is only 53! Well that sounds better, it is better to publish this number, the other one makes me feel too old." Robin laughed out loud and took a piece of the cake from Billy's hand, and passing another one to Theo next to him

"Pffff, you look old? In whose eyes?! Everyone I saw when he heard your true age for the first time was opening his mouth wide as if he wanted to swallow me! Don't forget the world Emperors before you whom everyone calls the *young* and the *hope*, their ages range from 800 and 1100! Compared to them, you are a baby!" Billy spit the cookie out of his mouth and yelled

"Hahahaha, baby? Is this how people see me?" Robin laughed out loud and took a pat on his thigh

Billy put his hand on his chest and spoke confidently, "Of course, you think I'd joke about something like that? Hurry up and finish your cake and I'll get you some milk!"

"HAHAHAHAHA."

Theo gave a satisfied smile as he saw his adoptive father laughing like this, he even saw a few tears starting to fall from the side of Robin's eyes!

When was the last time he saw him laughing like this? Rather.. did he ever see him laugh like this before? But this is also normal since he saw him in the slave market that day and he is always planning something or facing someone, today he is just chilling while standing on the absolute top of the planet, what else could he worry about?

Perhaps this is the real face of his father when worries leave him!

"Hmm?" But when Theo picked up Billy's face, the satisfied smile disappeared from his face, as he saw something very strange...

The louder Robin laughed, the worse Billy's facial features! 'What... Didn't Uncle Billy want to see my father happy?'

Then, out of nowhere, Billy's voice interrupted Robyn's laughter, "Are you ok? You look nervous... Why did you invite me today?"

"HAHA.. hehe.. heh~" Robin's laughter gradually diminished until it disappeared, then said, "…I trust you don't need the Demons anymore?"
