Find a Troubled Girl after leaving the Guild-Chapter 273 - 163: Oath of Glory

Zoe asked, "What about ALulu?"

"From her murmurs in the cradle."

Alright then.

Everyone unanimously decided not to continue this topic.

Baal added, this Saints' Chamber was established by the earliest followers of the Goddess. At that time, they also knew Baal, the hidden saint, and at his request, did not record the location of this stone chamber.

Because of the battles that had taken place, the remnants of the saints' bodies contained a massive amount of demon curses, which the Star Soul wanted to watch over continuously.

"Sorry, the heterogeneous spirit of the demon was drawn out when I intruded, which then exacerbated my curse."

"We have to thank you," Gregory said.

Baal pointed at the thorn on Li Ang's arm. "You must expel it as soon as possible, whether it's a witch or a spiritual forger. Do you have any leads?"

"I have some idea, I suppose."

"My power far surpasses that of the Earth Star Soul and Eden. If needed, let the Divine Child summon me at any time."

Li Ang expressed his thanks, glancing at Blondie Douding, suddenly reminded of another matter.

"By the way, that Ernest you saw him a thousand years ago too, right? The sword he gave you—"

Baal raised his hand, tearing open a dimensional rift, retrieving a sheathed thrusting sword.

The sheath was silver blue, the grip slender and elegant. The moment it appeared, it emitted a strong spiritual fluctuation of thunder and divine power, unmistakably indicating it was an extraordinary weapon.

The elder handed the sword to Li Ang indifferently.

Elaphia's delicate mouth moved slightly, asking, "I read in some fragmented literature that this sword was once used by a Paladin who was the leader of the Defender Knights Order under the Wotam Sect."

"He was also someone I once knew. He needed help, so I lent him this sword," Baal said calmly.

Over eternal years, this Star Soul formed countless bonds, only to watch them fade away one by one.

Both Gregory, likely a senior member of some Wotam sect branch, and Caladin were also nurtured by Baal. So it's needless to mention how many traces this Star Soul had left in the world over such long ages.

Given this, cutting ties with ALulu was merely an accustomed indifference after countless repetitions.

From this perspective, it indeed cannot be considered abandoning her, just mimicking the usual farewells of life and death.

Li Ang felt a gentle force impact his arm, ALulu seemed to have realized something, the confusion and panic from the island's arrival had completely disappeared from her eyes.

"Teacher, honestly, I did have some grievances when I knew you were still alive, but now I fully understand.

"You've met so many heroic figures and even a goddess, all of whom are great. You were equally important to them and to me, but I must also be like them, embarking on my own path.

"When you asked me to find my own companions, it was actually your way of saying goodbye to me, so I'll just keep moving forward.

"Previously, you asked me to think about what my own path is, and now it's clear."

ALulu stood upright, solemnly making an oath in her childish voice.

"I want to help the weak, support my companions, especially aiding the Star Flower Travel Corps and Big Brother Li Ang in becoming the pinnacle of the Sky Knight Order. All this will be pursued through actions, not merely words.

"Battle is my training. I will encourage my companions to grow together.

"Suffering is like the knife carving the stone, pushing me to continuously unleash my potential.

"I will overcome my shortcomings, making myself better."

Baal, calmly and clearly, said to ALulu, "This is the Oath of Glory."

"You will aim to become a heroic figure, elevate your own realm until Nirvana, bestow blessings upon yourself, and benefit all beings."

The young girl of the Horned Race lightly nodded.

Divine power rose upon her, turning her two pink braids into a brilliant gold. The third-tier shackles gently shattered, revealing the path of the extraordinary ahead, even the small round horns now showing their sharp tips.
