Chapter 720 - 608: Amberser’s Principles for Life_4
Saints are rare precisely because most people cannot be so magnanimous.
Amberser laughed heartily, confidently saying, "That’s right, I am the one who wins, but you’ve seen me lose before. If I had always won, would I have turned into a Lich? Back then, you were the high and noble of Alchemy City, and I was just a poor Legend transforming into a Lich."
Gustavo Flint couldn’t help but roar, "Then what’s the difference between you and me?!"
Gustavo Flint wanted nothing more than to smash the mirror in front of him and tear off the infuriating Clown Mask.
Yet Amberser was even more agitated, angrily saying, "The difference between you and me is that no matter how greedy or selfish I am, I would never betray anyone who has been kind to me. Flint, my teacher, he truly pitied you, he truly wanted to forgive you. He blessed all geniuses, helping them reach higher realms, and he bore their sins, so much so that he himself was punished by Ogma.
"Despite that, he was willing to trust you, willing to give you one last chance. But you put on an act in front of him, thinking to stab him in the heart one day!"
Dozens of huge Mage Hands appeared, pinning Gustavo Flint harshly to the ground. No matter how many pieces of Magic Equipment he had, they were meaningless under the immense Magic Power suppression of Amberser.
Amberser continued roaring, "That’s the difference between you and me. I can discern who genuinely cares for me, who truly hates me. I’ve killed many people, committed many atrocities; I don’t even regard the Deities. But I’d never scheme against any friends, I always try my utmost to repay anyone who is kind to me; this is the principle I’ve adhered to all my life.
