Chapter 132. Let’s Do This
At first, it was just one person—a man in a long, elegant robe strolling along. His footsteps echoed as he walked.
Soon, he noticed a land split wide open ahead. This was where Jecheon Seong had slashed his sword and where Nereid had fallen.
“How was it?” the man asked, seemingly speaking to the empty air.
However, someone answered him. The ground itself rose, morphing into the shape of a muscular man with brown skin.
“There were two. One was a human from the outside world, and the other was Vulcanus.”
“I see. He has finally done it.” The robed man let out a small chuckle.
Did Vulcanus hate Nereid that much? He did it while weakened too, hiding the true extent of his Heart of Flame.
Although Vulcanus did receive some help, it was still a remarkable feat. Among the beings tied to this world, only a few could stand against Nereid, let alone defeat him.
“Vulcanus didn’t play a huge role. It was a human who shattered the Core, and another who delivered the final blow.”
“Oh?” The robed man curiously raised an eyebrow. “The person who left this mark, you mean?”
“Yes. The one who broke Nereid's Core was a young man. The one who left these traces was an old man.”
