Chapter 127: 8. Circumstances of the Strongest
The Master of the Tower cautiously hid behind the maze wall.
There were discarded experimental beast-subjects here, so he had to move carefully.
It had already been days since he entered the maze surrounding the High Temple, but he still hadn’t made it inside.
“The closer to the center, the more troublesome it gets.”
He let out a low groan as he activated an invisibility scroll.
It was one of many scrolls he had crafted himself—never commercialized. Without it, he wouldn’t have made it this far.
“Aran, my daughter... she must be in there.”
His gaze darkened as he thought of his daughter.
But just as much as his daughter, his granddaughter also weighed heavily on his mind.
“I couldn’t even tell her I’m her grandfather. Couldn’t spoil her the way I wanted... and I’ve always been obsessive when it comes to blood ties...”
His fated granddaughter, Namia.
He hadn’t even lifted her up in his arms or put her on his shoulders and carried her around.
