Chapter 75 Messages from the Past and the Future (2/2)

Looking at the golden-haired swordsman handling the egg cautiously, Joshua could not help but sigh.

As a player in the other life, although the warrior had built a powerful party, they were still a little far behind from the royals of the Empire and the senate families in term of power. Although the players were considered as part of the people that could affect the direction of the history, they would not be able to understand so much about the entire situation.

Especially at the current time, in the previous life, it was still the first expansion of the game. In the beginning of the second expansion, the players had not built up a force that could influence the world just yet. They had also not acquired any trustworthy information and messages at that time, Most of them were still focused on building their strength and power level. Because of that, they omitted in that regard.

However, currently, in the meantime when Joshua received a lot of messages from the future, he also received information about many secrets of the past. After comparing both messages from the past and the future, he could now make more assumptions and predictions that yet to happen in the future.

It seemed that in his previous life, the God of Might and Justice had acted upon the situation. Not only did the God of Might and Justice aid the Metal Dragon to sanction the Pentashade to the mortal world, the God of Might and Justice had also aided the Church of the Seven Gods in annihilating the Marine Abyssal Dragons. There should also be reasons for the gods attempting to dispel the seeds of Chaos out of this world.

Upon resting his thoughts here, the warrior could not help to feel a little excited.

This mother*cking Dark Tide. The water seems deep indeed, however, it is somewhat interesting.

Well, an opponent that could put up a good fight would be a must forever in this world. It could keep things interesting at the least.

”Mr. Divine Armament, you don't have to stay in your weapon state. You can rest now.”

Keeping the creature from the deep sea to aside, Brandon looked at the silver greatsword that Joshua was holding on tightly since he arrived. He spoke out of courtesy just to remind, ”I'm also one of the Seal Guardians, so you don't need to maintain your Divine Armament form.”

”You're wrong, my friend. This is not a mister, it's a miss.”

Joshua lifted up the corner of his mouth with amusement. Then he shook his head and said, ”But you're right though… Ying, you can deactivate your Divine Armament mode now.”

”… Yes, Master.”

The silver greatsword rested on the hand of the warrior for a brief moment before it trembled lightly, deactivating her Divine Armament Mode.

Following the flashing radiance of the magic power, the shadow of the Divine Armament slowly emerged right before the two of them.

”… Hmph.”

After returning to her human form, the first thing that Ying did was glare fiercely at Brandon and huff with anger. After that, she walked behind Joshua. Her face was emotionless. She did not say anything after that.

”…”

Baffled by what just happened, the golden-haired swordsman was not an idiot either. He noticed that he was obviously hated. He had no idea why though.

Could it be because he had mistaken her gender earlier on? No, that should not be it… Most of the Divine Armaments were male. Furthermore, it was impossible to tell their gender by looking at their appearance in their weapon mode. So it made perfect sense that he made a mistake in guessing. Meanwhile, that mistake only happened once. This lady shouldn't be so mean, right?

Brandon felt dejected. He did not intend to offend the cute Divine Armament. After all, everyone was part of the force that went up against the Dark Tide. There was no need to be hostile towards anyone on the same side.

Joshua did not say a word about it. He was looking into his past memories to retrieve as much information and messages as he could with a calm face.

Meanwhile, Ying remained silent. She seemed to keep quiet because she noticed that her Master did not say anything as well. She just stayed by the side of the warrior. Brandon instantly realized that the spiral stairwells became quiet all of a sudden. Meanwhile, he did not have anything to say as well. Everyone remained quiet.

Thud thud thud—

A series of footsteps had broken the awkward silence of the situation.

”Lord Brandon!”

Right by the entrance to the stairwell, the voice of a guard echoed in, sounding breathless. ”The Countess has woken up!”
