Chapter 84 - To walk on the right path (1/2)
“The future is clear, Lord Negary” Granny Seal’e said with a smile.
“Eldridge’s methods destroyed the possibility of Nala’s peaceful life” Granny Seal’e said with a smile: “Nala will accept Eldridge’s terms and become fuel to prolong the flame, and Eldridge will lose the qualifications to be king”
“When Nala opens the kiln of the first flame, the passage that leaves this world will be unlocked, and we will leave this world of despair under Lord Negary’s lead” Granny Seal’e said firmly.
〖 Is the Dragon body finished? 〗 Negary ignored Granny Seal’e’s flattery and asked while pointing his finger to his forehead.
“The modulation has been completed, Milord’s current body has reached the limit of what can be achieved in this world. With [Dracotongue], Milord can even exert power beyond the limits of this world” Granny Seal’e replied seriously.
〖 Then I will leave helping Nala open the kiln of the first flame to you. The three troops are at your disposal. Before I go, I still have some unfinished business to take care of 〗Negary carefully examined this body that took great efforts to finally create, then gave Granny Seal’e that order.
“Milord wants to go meet Eldridge face-to-face?” Granny Seal’e curiously asked.
〖 Although he had backed down and gave the qualifications to Nala, he is still one of the peak entities I’ve met in this world, I have to at least attend his funeral 〗 Negary put on his clothes as well as a robe and left his palace.
Suddenly, Negary turned around, looked at the silent Granny Seal’e, and solemnly asked: 〖 Granny Seal’e, what do you think is the nature of ‘Life’? 〗
“Lord Negary, in a general sense, what determines who a person is, isn’t their body, nor their soul, but rather their unique [Origin]” Granny Seal’e was stunned, and then answered affirmatively: “And the nature of an [Origin] is the embodiment of the world and the universe, as well as the connection between an individual with their world and the universe”
“Therefore, the Evil Spirits, entities that exist separately of an [Origin] are considered to be the error of this world” Granny Seal’e answered him truthfully.
〖 Are you not afraid to offend me? 〗 Negary asked.
“Sometimes, errors might seem to be more correct, do they not? For example, Nala who has been making the right choice would also face the most tragic future of all” Granny Seal’e said with certainty: “Because this world itself might be an error”
〖 Perhaps it is true 〗 Negary nodded and left Reystromia.
Granny Seal’e looked on as Negary left, then gave the orders to the three troops who were on standby. Some of them were responsible for ambushing the members of Hales, while others were to create obstacles meant to help Nala improve herself, forcing her to keep using Dragon’s blood. That way, she would grow closer and closer to a true ‘Dragon’, thus ensuring her suitability to be the substitute for the Progenitor Dragon.
…
Meanwhile, on top of the gloomy staircase, Nala was staring at the Statue of the Last God, as well as Eldridge who stood behind it. The knights behind her were all cautiously watching their surroundings.
Although Smick had sworn upon his own honour that Nala would not be harmed, the thing called ‘honour’ could be worth as much as all the riches in this world, but it could also be worthless. Putting all you have on the honour of another is nothing but a stupid act.
