Chapter 369: Infernal Education
“”Wow, quite the grand setup for just an angel.””
“At the end of the passageway was a resplendent underground palace. The fleeting murals seemed to depict myths from an unknown era, and upon closer inspection, the dazzling dome was made of massive golden bones, the remains of some mythological creature.”
“In the center of the palace lay a colossal stone coffin large enough for a giant. Neither of the two could reach the lid due to their height.”
“”I remember Belldates are usually short,” Ashe remarked. “Although I know the Gospel broke reproductive isolation long ago, can giants really have children with humans? The software might be compatible, but the hardware isn’t.””
“The cloaked man ignored Ashe, fixating on the stone coffin while his hands moved in unknown gestures. Soon, a massive dark green wraith rose from the coffin, with chains of nothingness extending from its body, binding it to the palace. It seemed both imprisoned by the palace and protected by it.”
“The wraith spoke, “Are you the sorcerers who have passed my trials and are qualified to inherit my path of the Malicious Angel?””
“Ashe replied, “It’s just him. I prefer the living over corpses.””
“The cloaked man responded, “Great predecessor, Malicious Angel Belldate, I will inherit your glory and carry it forward. Entrust everything to me.””
“The wraith asked, “To confirm your qualification, my legacy will invade your soul in an extremely brutal manner, potentially causing your soul to collapse. Are you sure you want to inherit this path?””
