Chapter 409 - 381 Announcing to the Whole World
Shael’s phantom extended a finger, touching it to Amber’s forehead as it uttered an incantation.
The dark knowledge parasitic on Amberser’s soul transformed into countless vermin, beginning to devour his soul voraciously.
In just a moment, Amberser’s soul was shattered.
Shael wasn’t faring well either; Its body, formed from black mist, was completely torn apart by an invisible force, causing Shael to emit a heart-wrenching scream.
It seemed a lose-lose situation, with Shael accepting the punishment of Aeo in exchange for the complete annihilation of Amberser, but before Shael’s phantom vanished completely, Amberser’s fragmented soul began to heal once more.
The soul, already terribly fractured, was protected by some special power, slowly returning to its original form.
Amberser took a long breath and said to the faint remnants of Shael, "I didn’t expect you to actually lose your restraint and act, and now that you have breached the contract first, the knowledge of the Magic Web is entirely mine."
Initially, when the contract was signed between them, Amberser was forbidden from teaching the knowledge of the Magic Web to anyone; he couldn’t even write it down, and Shael was not to use this knowledge to harm Amberser directly, as the knowledge had been received straight into the soul as a safeguard.
And now, Shael had broken this rule.
How much punishment It received was uncertain, since Amberser was not Aeo and had no idea what the God above Gods was thinking. However, he guessed the punishment would not be light, otherwise, Shael wouldn’t have been hiding in the shadows for years, with Aeo completely unconcerned about Its wellbeing.
