Chapter 723: The Last Trial!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Soul Sovereign Rosso’s soul illusion in the extreme north had fooled the entire group of strong figures, including Link.
This type of seemingly real, seemingly unreal spell was the strongest illusion in the world. It affected the soul directly. If one’s spell wasn’t strong enough or if one wasn’t observant enough, they would never be able to break free.
Link had once fallen for it, so he now understood this type of spell.
This time, he immediately discovered what was abnormal. In reality, starting with the yellow-green fog, the river, the island, and the woman on the island were all illusions! However, it was the God of Destruction’s first time experiencing this kind of spell. Even after all this time, she still didn’t notice anything wrong.
After Link mentioned it, she froze and then stared closely at the island for three full minutes. She sighed. “I can’t believe such an illusion exists in the world. I didn’t even notice.”
This way, she had no trump cards. None of her underlings had followed over either. This meant that she was facing Link all alone. No matter if she won or lost, she would pay heavily for it. Deep inside, she didn’t have the confidence to win at all.
She turned to look at Link. “You appeared voluntarily. Are you prepared to fight to the death with me?”
“What else could it be?” He tapped the Ode of a Full Moon, making crisp dings. Celine hadn’t appeared, but she’d arranged his illusion to create the best battle environment. Nothing was holding him back now. It was the best time for a final fight!
Unexpectedly, the God of Destruction suddenly shook her head. “No, no, no, not so fast. I still have something to say.”
“Oh?” Link didn’t act. He wanted to see what the other could do.
The God of Destruction’s weapon was a dark gold spear. Right now, she decided to put it away. “I think that the conflicts between us can be resolved. It isn’t my wish to chase after Celine Flandre. I was forced by the Ruler of Light and Darkness. If you can help me defeat him, we can become temporary allies.”
Link didn’t really believe the God of Destruction’s words.
“I have a reason for this. Listen closely.” She even decided to cancel the magic shield on her surface. If Link attacked suddenly, she would be in a horrible situation. With Link’s incomprehensible style of attacking, she would be dead within seconds.
But Link didn’t move. He was attracted by the word “ally.” He was definitely at a disadvantage against the Ruler of Light and Darkness. He needed as many allies as possible.
He still held his sword, but the tip was pointed down now.
“I’m sure you know about my background. Travel Magician Aisenis has many connections and he’s a businessman. He must have sold my information to you, right?”
Link nodded.
The God of Destruction shrugged. “Then it’s easy. I came to Firuman because there was a giant crack in the realm. I wanted to take advantage of it. But now, things are different. Not only has the crack disappeared, Firuman has become stronger too. I’m not able to harm this realm at all with my current power, right?”
“Indeed. The only true god in the Sea of Void is the Ruler of Light and Darkness. I’ve experienced his strength before. You’re nothing in comparison.”
