Chapter 83 Mythical Beast (6)

Edora nodded cal sides and answered,

“That’s e’re here, dad I mean, you didn’t even bat an eye when Arthia was in trouble Why is it so urgent this ti a neutral standpoint

It was an ironclad principle of the One-horned Tribe that had been established since ancient tiest clan

“I wasn’t going to interfere at first, but… things have gotten complicated”

Phante and Edora frowned at the ed s’ who held the highest status in The Tower In terth, he was one of the top five experts

But such a man found this to be a ‘co to join the war as mercenaries”

“What? But…”

“Flann said he’d give up his horn You knohat that ave their consent”

“…!”

“…!”

Phante’s and Edora’s eyes widened

For the members of the One-horned tribe, their horn symbolized their honor and pride

Flann was the er brother, as well as one of the best warriors in the tribe Giving up his horn was the sa he’d achieved so far

If that’s why their father said it was ‘complicated’, they could understand why

“It’ll be a long story, so let’s go inside first”

“I’m sorry but I don’t know either”

『H you can see fro his head, even though he knew the Phoenix wasn’t there

『Do I see anything? No I ahfrom that bracelet It is as if…』

The Phoenix paused for a ht words

『Yes, it is as if the bracelet is shrouded in fog That’s how it looks in my eyes』

Yeon-woo narrowed his eyes

‘An artifact that the Phoenix’s eyes can’t see through Well, that’s frustrating’

『But there is one thing I can tell you』

“What is it?”

『That bracelet, it is an artifact that represents my antithesis, but at the same time, is in line with me Think of it as a mirror』

‘Antithesis? A y

『I am a creature that represents life itself, even in death But that ite Life is but one step away from death That artifact and I possess the power of circulation, regeneration, and resurrection』

The Phoenix spoke in a heavy voice

『Therefore, it can be said that the bracelet and I are the saes reflected in a mirror, but also like two sides of the same coin』

“…”

The Phoenix’s explanation was as clear as hed hts

『Yes, I understand your confusion Even I do not fully understand what that artifact is』

Then she left a strange re in mind It will help you solve the mysteries behind that bracelet』

“What is it?”

『Life and death, though they sees, they are not different They are one』

“Life and death are one…?”

『Yes』

The Phoenix could come back to life even after death because she could control life itself

The Black Bracelet, on the other hand, could control death It collected souls of the dead and converted they or Spirit Familiars

If viewed from a different perspective, it could also be considered as a form of resurrection

Perhaps this hat the Phoenix was talking about

Though it sounded like so the questions he had about the artifact,

『And about that shi+eld, I can certainly feel divine power from it Hmm… Was it blessed by the Goddess of war? Or was it used by herself?』

Yeon-woo’s eyes widened with surprise

The Phoenix continued with a slightly elated voice

『I see you don’t want others to know about it I understand Then I will swear under a Soul Oath that I will keep it secret』

Soul Oath

It was a contract that placed one’s soul under bindings, destroying it in case one were to break the contract

The Phoenix was practically saying she would never disclose his secret to others

“Thank you”

『You have saved ht that I accommodate to you But I do wish to examine your shi+eld, so would you allow me to take a look? It has been a while since I have coht it would be okay to show her since she had made a proe about Godly artifacts This could be ave a nod and brought the shi+eld to his front

Nine light-pink translucent layers shi+eld In appearance, it was just as beautiful as the artwork made by an artisan

But embedded in the center of suchon that petrifies those who gaze into her eyes

『Yes, I have heard of it About a brilliant and courageous Goddess in Olys in the world and bring only what is right This is her artifact, is it not?』

Yeon-woo listened to the Phoenix’s adis with Draconic Eyes
