Chapter 361: Floor 76, Child of Divine Blood (1)
Maria spoke.
[Your destination is the domain of the God of Order, Horai, where his Apostle rules the world of Arbosea. There, by the side of one blessed with divine blood, you shall make your choice. That is your task.]
“Could a Transcendent intervene?”
A world where the Apostle of the God of Order resided—such a place might attract the attention of a Transcendent. However, Maria shook her head.
[No, they won’t interfere. The order Horai imposes binds even himself. That’s why he never entered the labyrinth.]
A hint of mockery was in Maria’s voice.
[I respect the choices of all beings. Even if those choices lead to death, as long as it’s their will, it’s valid. But sometimes, choices don’t exist at all. I can’t stand to see that.]
Maria waved her hand, and Taesan’s body began moving against his will.
Taesan closed his eyes, bracing himself for the journey.
A sensation of the world shifting enveloped him.
When it subsided, Taesan opened his eyes.
He saw a massive forest. Bushes rustled, brushing against his ankles, and the strong smell of grass filled the air.
