The Sage’s hall fell silent once again.
It was one thing to hate the half-bloods for their demonic origins. But the Anfang Alliance made use of the half-bloods before killing them for its own safety. It was no wonder that the half-blood clans from the Last Blood Bastion would involve themselves in cultist activities to create unrest in various kingdoms.
“What… what happened next?”
Nira reclined on her throne once again before adding further.
It has managed to keep invaders away for so long now. So we can trust history’s narration that says that the sacrifice worked. Meaning the goddesses’ plan worked. The trap not only killed the half-bloods but also the titans present at the scene.
Even the titans weren’t expecting something like this from the Anfang Alliance. I mean who would hurt their most capable fighting force and then burn all their bridges with it? As such, the denizens of Allansia also lost a lot of their capable members that day. It was a huge blow to the titan invaders with the kind of attack the Anfang alliance had managed to launch.”
“Eliza had supported the alliance with all her heart until this point. It was she who ignored the rift that was being created between the half-blood clans and the alliance. And it was she who convinced the half-blood clans to participate in the all-out war against the titans with all their might despite their newfound differences with the alliance.?????ℯ??????. c?m
They say that only Eliza managed to get away from the trap the goddess and the alliance had set up in conjunction. She forced her way out of that trap with brute strength alone at the cost of using a forbidden technique.
The Witch of Enderflame would have killed more rankers from Anfang’s side as well. However, she decided to retreat after her condition kept getting worse. Nobody could stop that dragon half-blood if she wanted to retreat. Nobody dared to.
Nobody knows what happened to her after that. Some say Eliza died after escaping. Others say she lost her Sage rank and died as a non-ranker after using the forbidden technique.
‘Um… I have got news for you.’
He had always been wary of Eliza ever since he met her. She was the first Sage he had ever come into contact with. Even then, he could subconsciously tell she wasn’t merely a Sage. She was endowed with natural talent, a powerful bloodline, innate elemental comprehension, and exceptional weapon-handling skills. Plus, an unmatched drive to be the most outstanding in her generation. Even while she was hanging between life and death, her presence was overwhelming.
‘She wants to purge the Anfang alliance after resurrecting. And by helping her return, I will have to make myself her accomplice. Or at least that’s how I will be seen if things blow out of proportion.’
He looked at Nira curiously before asking another question.
Nira pursed her lips and nodded before answering.
? The messenger had said that the goddess was provoked when House Samael started working on the Primer Matter research. She didn’t like the possibility of someone creating such a groundbreaking matter for some reason.
The goddess wanted the Anfang alliance to get rid of all of the half-bloods completely. So she put forward various conditions in the isolation array itself, which would influence the alliance to suppress and kill the remaining half-bloods even after the isolation array had been erected.”
