Chapter 1043: Chapter 748: The Importance of Endurance_2
Obviously, destroying that earring caused her considerable injury.
"Whoever you are, I swear by my soul, unless death takes me, the bond with your fate will never disappear!"
After making the most venomous vow, Tristramy became even more listless, but she quickly composed herself, a flash of determination in her eyes.
"No one can escape the bind of fate, fate will guide me to find your most fatal weakness."
She hurriedly stood up, "Even at the highest price, I must kill you."
"I need to prepare, when the ceremony ends, it will be your death day!"
Using the Fate Coin as her title among the Immortals, Tristramy was not known for her combat skills, yet she was one of the most troublesome Immortals.
No one willingly offends her.
Because of the uniqueness of her ability, her fate rarely intertwined with others, devoid of enmity or affection, this was the ideal state for a Fate Manipulator.
And now, she decided to use all her power.
To kill a person.
Tristramy always believed that there was no one in this world she could not kill, the only difference was the price she was willing to pay.
Even she, during the manipulation of the threads of fate, would get cut.
On the other side, Olivia watched as Roger destroyed the gift from Tristramy.
That was not a simple treasure, it held a part of Tristramy’s soul, endowed with the gift of an Immortal, in reality, unless targeted specifically, it was difficult to be killed.
Such immense power... is this truly something achievable at the Fourth Tier?
Could it be...
Many doubts surfaced in her heart, Olivia even dismissed the idea of using her soul ability.
With the destructive power Roger displayed just now, even if she could see through every attack intent, she couldn’t avoid or withstand them.
Moreover, she sensed that Roger’s power was strange, it seemed to be something not belonging to the soul, and its source was extremely peculiar.
"I once said, all that happened before was just a misunderstanding."
Roger wanted to say more, but he quickly noticed some anomalies, the erosion of his soul was only a part of it, the more significant was the malice originating from this world...
Logically speaking, due to the Hunter’s Cabin, even in other worlds, his power wouldn’t be significantly affected.
This was what made him different from other Transcendents.
Yet here, the rejection was much stronger, even reaching the level of sworn enemies fighting to the death.
"Strange..."
"It seems this world isn’t rejecting me, but the other powers developed from bloodline..."
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Roger’s body stepped on the rock beneath him, descending towards the ground.
Causing such a commotion, it wouldn’t be long before this place was surrounded, and the next arrival wouldn’t be an ordinary character like Dominican.
At this point, Roger naturally wouldn’t consider Olivia as the top combat force in reality.
Moreover, the more important thing is... though he is now quite strong.
He’s not enduring.
That’s the biggest pain point.
In a full-on outbreak, Roger’s combat strength was even stronger than when he left Erode.
But when it came to endurance... it truly was painful.
A quick battle might be possible, but if it drags on, he would become listless before he could defeat the opponent.
Watching Roger’s figure falling rapidly, Olivia showed a complicated expression, with so many questions in her heart she didn’t even know where to start.
She couldn’t even clearly define her position at this moment.
"Will we meet again?"
She suddenly asked.
"Hopefully not."
A huge hand wrapped around Roger’s body and then dived into the ground with him.
At the same time, the earth where the tower stood began to tremble again, and a miraculous scene occurred, besides the undulating earth, the previously split tower pieced itself back together.
The tangible walls and doorposts fused once more.
Aside from some damaged interior furnishings and the weathered marks on the surface, the broken tower restored itself to its original state.
When the tremors ceased, the entire manor plunged into an eerie silence. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
Everyone was stunned by the sight before them.
In a room further from the tower, a woman retracted her gaze with a complex expression.
Valanie was certain, though there was some distance, and the impact of Soul Force made it hard to see what exactly happened near the tower.
But Valanie’s soul ability happened to excel at this, her insight and analytical skills were a major reason for her rapid progress in Potionology.
It also allowed her to see some things clearly.
She was certain that the figure standing on the surface of the gigantic rocky hand was indeed Roger.
"Could this be part of Alchemy too?"
"To imbue the rock with life?"
Valanie’s mind was in turmoil.
She had only been in contact with Roger for a few days, but what she learned and realized almost shattered her previously held beliefs.
"It can’t be, all Alchemy is just trickery, maybe occasionally successful, but essentially a malignancy!"
She repeatedly reminded herself, yet for some reason, the image of the other appeared in her mind again and again.
"Could my memory be faulty, maybe he really has a way to concoct an Alchemy Potion that can alter others’ memories..."
"Perhaps something happened that night which I’m unaware of?"
Valanie’s mind was in chaos, she exerted considerable effort to calm herself again, but just then, a rhythmic knocking sounded at the door.
"Dear Lady, the Governing Officer wishes to see you."
Aerfie’s voice was as steady as ever, but Valanie’s newly calmed emotions became chaotic once more.
After changing into slightly more formal attire, Valanie was led by Aerfie to a study at the base of the tower.
The room was in disarray.
Although the main structure of the tower, made of stone, remained intact, many decorations and wooden structures had been damaged.
After formal greetings, Valanie sat directly across from Olivia.
This woman, who appeared so formidable during their first meeting, now seemed to have shed that mysterious aura.
She scrutinized Valanie without blinking, her inquisitive gaze sweeping over her entire body, to be honest, even as a woman herself...
Olivia’s gaze seemed overly bold.
"I’ve heard you spent a pleasant night with Roger."
Olivia cleared her throat, trying her best to maintain a serious expression, but despite her efforts, the room seemed to take on a slightly ambiguous air after she asked the embarrassing question.
"Um..."
Olivia quickly gathered her words.
"Some things happened in the manor not long ago, I can tell you, the central figure in this incident is Roger."
"Regarding this mysterious man, we know too little, and the direction of the investigation that follows will not only impact this incident but could lead to unimaginable upheaval."
Listening to Olivia’s formal words without specifics, Valanie appeared bewildered on the surface, but she had guessed a few things, understanding she must not reveal them.
"...so, we need to gather more information about Roger."
"Not a single detail can be overlooked."
Olivia finally concluded the lengthy prelude, the ambiguous atmosphere brought by the previous question dissipated somewhat as she spoke.
"I’m sorry, but I don’t know much about Roger either, our first meeting was at the restaurant, then we worked together for a few days."
"However, the progress of the experiments was quite fast, so we didn’t converse much in general."
"On this matter, I really can’t be of much help..."
"No, you can help."
Olivia placed her hands on the table, leaning slightly forward.
"You have had the closest contact with him..."
"So, what exactly happened between you that night?"
"This concerns the safety of the Federation, you must answer truthfully."
Olivia’s expression was serious.
"From start to finish, no detail can be omitted."
"Expressions, actions, and..."
"In short, we need to know everything."
Hearing her words, Valanie slowly opened her mouth, and in that moment, she suddenly wanted to curse.
We are innocent, after all.
