Upon hearing this word, Noel couldn’t help but furrow his brows slightly.
He fixed his gaze on the eye above the gate and asked softly, "What does that mean?"
"Destruction is always easier than creation, Lord of Light," the Guardian replied in a deep voice.
"And to reverse the process of destruction is an even harder task. In this world, to obtain something or achieve a goal, one must pay a price equal to it. If you wish to restore this world that is on the verge of collapse, you must pay an even greater price than the Lord of Darkness."
"I see. You mean... the resolve to sacrifice?" Noel said.
"Yes. Do you possess enough resolve, Lord of Light?" the Guardian asked again for confirmation.
