Chapter 250 – The One Chosen By The Gods (2/2)

“I see, no wonder I’ve never heard of it.”

“Old man, have you heard of that prophecy?”

“Prophecy? What prophecy?”

“The Pope’s prophecy.”

“Pope St.Geroge?”

“That’s right, you know that I’m not religious, so even the Pope is but a hoodlum to me… but he’s pretty good with his prophecies. I’ve heard a lot about them, how they’re always accurate, and each prophecy is always something earth-shattering!”

“Something huge? What could it be… a war?”

“No, not just a war, a calamity… named the original sin.” Greenton sighed, pinched his smoke and started seriously talking, “The prophecy says that Eileen will encounter an unprecedented calamity. It’ll wither away everything, wipe out humanity and turn the continent into a dead place… we’re powerless against such a calamity, only one person can stop it.”

“Who?”

“The one chosen by the gods.”

“Oh, so is that you?” Woos guessed.

As the strongest man on the continent, the strongest hero, it made sense that if the Goddess were to choose, it would be him.

But Woos guessed wrong.

“No, I also don’t know who that person is, but I’m sure that it isn’t me. Old man, it isn’t me…”

“Greenton…”

Who knows what kind of emotions Greenton was harboring as he said that.

Regret? Resentment? Anger? Or relief and joy of not having to be responsible.

Woos didn’t know, but he did know he definitely had a sense of helplessness at his powerlessness facing the calamity and had to entrust his fate to an unknown person.

As someone strong, he must hate this feeling of helplessness.

“The Pope’s prophecy is incomplete, the only thing we know is that the chosen one is a powerful magician, and they’re very young and are not yet aware of their mission. So I have to find them!” Greenton talked about the crucial points of the prophecy and silently stared at Woos.

Woos understood his idea.

A strong and young magician, unaware of their mission, that person, might be from Bamboo Academy, the unawakened foolish magician, Yao Zi.

“Is Yao Zi the Chosen One?”

“I’m not sure, further observation is still required, but there’s a high chance.” Greenton shook his head and suddenly lowered his voice, “This cant be rushed. Old man, before I confirm the identity of the Chosen One, you can’t leak this information.”

“Why?”

“Heh, old man, do you think this is a normal calamity? No, the enemies aren’t in the forest or the darkness.” Saying that, Greenton made a fist and pounded his left chest, “But right here, Woos, the enemies are right beside us.”

“I don’t understand, cough… but do as you see fit.”

Woos didn’t understand what he was babbling about. He already told everything he knew to Greenton, so as for saving the world and stopping the calamity, it’s better that he leaves those to strong people like him.

But then again, was Yao Zi really the Chosen One?

Her matches the prophecy, but Woos felt something was off.

He heard everything about Yao Zi’s majestic story from a lazy brat… that’s right, everything was from Lin Xiao since he and his maid were the only people there. Even if Yao Zi did indeed possess the Wizard’s bloodline, Lin Xiao couldn’t prove the rest of his story.

What if… just what if, Woos had a bold conjecture.

What if the person who multicast the Flaming Meteors, defeated the Lesser Devils and caused the earthquake wasn’t Yao Zi, but someone else…
