Chapter 500: Farewell
“So, the Gospel was warning me to stay away from Ashe from the very beginning.”
Igor retreated behind the wall of legendary sorcerers. Hearing Annan’s murmurs as she reloaded her clip, he frowned and asked, “How did it warn you?”
“Do you remember my reward from the Art Ranking?”
The shy Second Miss Donna blushed, modestly firing metal bullets that skimmed past the shoulders of the legendary sorcerers like a spring breeze, creating ripples on the Sanctuary barrier of her pursuers.
Annan’s voice mingled with the roaring sound of gunfire, as if she had suddenly realized the correct solution after an exam ended: “One was ‘Calamity Insight,’ and the other was ‘Tongue of Release.’”
“You never seemed to use those rewards much,” Igor remarked as he opened the Gospel Book, rapidly restoring his spellforce using Gospel points. To drive the three wings spirit, he used both silver spellforce and golden spellforce as fuel. However, this desperate gamble only sped up the depletion of his spellforce, making him dizzy and weakening his soul to the point where he longed for a comforting embrace-an absurdly vulnerable thought.
“‘Calamity Insight’ can identify calamities on others, and ‘Tongue of Release’ can terminate any Pact verbally if both parties agree,” Annan explained cheerfully. “Together with my first-place Art Ranking piece, the Gospel’s suggestion was quite clear: this person is trouble, cut ties and leave him.”
“It’s quite obvious indeed. How did you miss that?”
“I didn’t miss it,” Annan replied. “I just didn’t accept the Gospel’s advice. My favorite thing to do is go against the Gospel.”
