Chapter 780 (2/2)

“As long as you can help us to hold back the Krieg royal family, then you can leave the remaining experts from the Mage Association to us.”

Saying this, Ebert’s eyes emitted an extreme confidence.

It was true that he could feel confident. The Church of Universal Truth was the strongest influence in this world, and even if they were currently having an internal strife, it still did not affect their strength.

Charlot shook his head helplessly. He understood that the Church still had yet to take the matters here seriously. In the eyes of the Church, the world’s center was still in the north, and the south was merely where some heretic followers or barbarians were located.

There was nothing Charlot could do to change this deeply rooted perception. However, at the very least, he had gotten into contact with the Church of Universal Truth and could rely on the power of those two Guardian Kings who would be coming to deal with the Mage Association.

At the thought of this, a hint of joy grew in Charlot’s heart.

“Alright, since that’s the case, we’ll leave the Mage Association to you guys when the time comes.”

After Ebert sent him back to the town, Charlot started to call out for Fang Xingjian in his mind. However, even after he called out ‘Master’ many times, he still did not get any reply.

It was only at his last call that he heard Fang Xingjian’s weak voice.

“I’m at a critical point of comprehending sword arts. Tomorrow, I’ll hide in your consciousness while you deal with things as they come. I’ll come out at the crucial moment.”

“What?”

Hearing Fang Xingjian’s reply, Charlot quickly kept calling out for Fang Xingjian, but he did not receive any other reply.

Slapping himself on the head, Charlot thought helplessly, ‘Is Master engrossed in his sword arts now? Then this means that unless I encounter a life-threatening situation or he has completed his comprehension, he won’t be waking up.’

He recalling from his memories how Fang Xingjian had done something similar on a few occasions. Fang Xingjian would always only wake up at the very last moment, but each time he did, his sword arts would also improve tremendously.

Shaking his head, Charlot’s eyes gleamed with determination. ‘For Master to be entering into such a deep state of comprehension, he must have some kind huge breakthrough in his sword arts again. Unless he receives a warning from his Sudden Inspiration, he won’t be waking up.

‘This means that unless the two of us or other people who are important to Master encounter danger, Master will continue staying in his current state of comprehending sword arts until he completes it.

‘If that’s the case, I can only depend on myself.’

At the thought of this, Charlot kept recalling the process of the evil god summoning ritual, which would be happening tomorrow. Unknowingly, he revealed a confident smile.

‘Master, since that’s the case, I’ll personally bring you to the center of the ritual to meet up with the two Guardian Kings. I’ll leave the rest to you.’

Thinking of this, Charlot used his memories to head out of the small town. Looking at the number of Knights which had increased greatly as compared to the past few days, he thought, ‘As expected, there are more and more Knights as time passes. Alexander and the others aren’t thinking of blocking off the news.’

At the thought of how the evil god summoning ritual attracted countless of Knights, Charlot smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Those below the Divine level, or experts below tier three of the Divine level, had no hope of having anything to do with the evil god’s clone.

However, greed was a very scary thing. Even though many people did not have the capability, they still came to the Imperial Capital, pushed by their greed. They hoped that they could get lucky and obtain the power of the evil god.

‘They are either fools or just too greedy. But if this wasn’t the case, I wouldn’t have a chance either and would only be able to wake up Master.’

Thinking up to this, Charlot walked out of the town and headed to another town in the northeast.

He remembered there was a group there that managed to enter the center of the ritual at the end.
