Chapter 510 Fifth Pillar – Erasing Love
The sky of Narthrador began to change.
The purple color of the four collapsing pillars now roared with a dark tone. It was neither magic nor mechanical whistling—but the resonance of souls unable to accept their new forms. Amidst the vibrations, it sounded like the screams of their souls, as if they were struggling to find meaning in the painful silence. Every breeze carried whispers of untold stories, waiting to be revealed under the weight of nostalgia.
The Fifth Saint stepped forward.
Unlike her predecessors, she bore no numbers on her face. She didn't even have a face. What existed was merely a hollow gap, like a wound on a mirror. In the silence, the gap seemed to glow, revealing shadows of memories etched in the hearts of every individual—lost love, countless sacrifices. Every second they stood before her, hope and fear intertwined as one.
From the gap emerged a single sentence:
"Fifth Pillar."
"Dogma of Erasure: Love that can save... can also obliterate."
"You, Fitran, have loved Rinoa so deeply... that you are ready to destroy the system to find her."
Fitran's breath felt heavy, as if the weight of the world pressed against his chest. He remembered the beautiful moments when love embraced him tightly, when hopes and dreams of the future merged in a perfect dance. But now, the world felt darker with the choices that awaited him; a single step that could change fate and defy the destiny that separated them.
"If so, I want to ask: Will you also... obliterate her with the same love?"
The question struck like a magical blow to Fitran's chest.
