Chapter 216 - Ashen Thrones and Fiery Skies
Some moments before the Dragon’s Breath swept Milis.
Rygar was facing Galgard and his knights.
The Iron Legion was still fighting Milis’s main armies; they had also destroyed the reflections of the White Knight.
Ghislaine, Verdia, and Gretta, in turn, fought the Magic King and his guardians.
Meanwhile, far from the battle, in the center of the White Palace, protected by several high-level Barriers, Cardinal Leblanc, the White Knight himself, and twelve more priests had gathered.
Those present in that sacred hall had an important task: to ensure the death of the Beast God should the main plan fail.
The White Knight, after mirroring his reflections and sending them to fight on the battlefronts, had returned alone to the Palace.
Many presumed he would face Rygar directly, but he simply fell back.
One of the priests, kneeling and pale, with completely white hair, was breathing with difficulty, sweating profusely.
With a weak voice, he addressed Cardinal Leblanc:
"We will not be able to summon the Sacred Sword, Your Holiness... Only its reduced version, the Sanctified Sword..."
Leblanc’s brow furrowed with disgust.
