Chapter 63 - Granny Seale (1/2)
Translator: La0o9 Editor: La0o9
This ‘Granny Seal’e’ who was by Negary’s side was someone who sought out and joined Reya of her own accord 6 years ago.
She was a Witch, the very same kind that everyone thought of from the legends whenever they heard the word ‘witch’.
From her appearance alone, she fit the role to a T. An eerily old face, a rickety figure as well as weird laughter, the spitting image of an evil Witch from any fairy tale.
And it was also this Granny Seal’e who first prophesied about the Saintress of Salvation, soon after she made this prophecy, she disappeared without a trace. The next time she appeared, she came to offer her forehead to Negary on her own.
Granny Seal’e’s current job was to teach Negary her knowledge about mysticism, as well as the legendary [Dracotongue] language.
Negary had already managed to extract the inheritance information within the Dragon’s blood very early on, but as this information was fully written in [Dracotongue], it was basically useless.
Granny Seal’e wasn’t too familiar with [Dracotongue], but she knew enough to help Negary slowly decipher and derive the inheritance information bit by bit.
As Negary stood up from his throne, he displayed a body vastly different from his previous viral body. First of all, it was considerably more muscular, a natural sense of dominance drifted and flowed along his frame, and scales began to manifest on his body. Suddenly, this perfect body began to crack and break as golden blood spilled from inside, flowing all over the floor.
The body then immediately melted into a pool of golden blood, Negary’s soul stood up from what remained of the body, looked down at the pool of golden liquid and shook his head: 〖 Another failure, I have already reached the peak of this world’s strength 〗
“That is inevitable. For Lord Negary, this world is much too weak” Granny Seal’e sighed as she watched this happen: “But there is no need to hurry, darkness will eventually come, and at that time, this world would no longer be able to stop Lord Negary’s path”
Negary didn’t answer her, instead, picked up a book from the side and began to flip through it.
He wasn’t wrong. If considering individual strength alone, he was already standing at the peak of this world and reached a point where he could no longer improve himself. Furthermore, he could sense that he had completely exhausted every last bit of his potential.
In the end, he didn’t have a True Spirit. He managed to use the Soul’s Blood to become a soul virus and once again became stronger, but both this world’s environment and the problem of his essence were limits that restrained his growth.
“The [Origin] is the most essential way for an individual to grow stronger” Granny Seal’e explained: “Through releasing one’s [Origin] step by step, one’s soul would undergo a qualitative change that allowed them to obtain various supernatural powers”
“Since Lord Negary does not have a True Spirit, you can only seek other methods to improve the quality of your soul. In this world where it would be hard to even release one’s [Origin] once, this should already the extreme limit for Lord Negary to nurture your own soul to this level of quality”
“Even when this old lady had released her [Origin] once, the power of this old lady’s soul was still vastly inferior to Lord Negary, this is what I respect the most about Lord Negary” Granny Seal’e spoke with absolute respect.
〖 That is not enough. For me, this is still nowhere near enough 〗Negary replied as he slowly flipped through the book in his hand.
What Negary was reading is a history book that he obtained, as well as various travel journals and historical myths.
This world had quite an impressive ancient history, before the Trilancia Empire of the Cauchy people, three other Empires were recorded, which were in order the Lomicht Empire, the Laith Empire and the Moy Empire.
