Chapter 248: The Birth of Asuka
"The Seven Star Sword... is gone?"
The witch was startled and confused, but as Mio and the others left, she quickly came to her senses and rushed toward the castle. Soon, she arrived at the place where the Seven Star Sword had been sealed.
"Really, really gone?" Staring at the empty sarcophagus, the witch's face was filled with shock.
She suspected that the group from earlier had taken the Seven Star Sword—or had even been controlled by it.
However, she had sensed no special aura from them. As the witch of the island, she was extremely sensitive to the evil aura of the Seven Star Sword. But she hadn't felt it at all from Mio and his companions, which meant that the sword wasn't in their possession.
Then... where had the Seven Star Sword gone?
The witch was left full of doubt.
...
Mio, of course, had no idea what the witch was doing.
At this moment, a familiar prompt echoed on his panel, indicating the success of his cultivation process.
[Cultivation successful!]
