Chapter 307: The Snake Grants No Rest - I

The farcical drama at the Etheric Academy has drawn to a close. 

It appears that prior to the Luminaris family falling under complete control, Conrad surreptitiously reallocated a cache of resources. With these assets, he contracted a fifth-stage mercenary from the Zero Realm Explorers and acquired a top-tier forced teleportation scroll, impervious even to fifth-stage defenses, to forcibly dispatch Ronger and Barnes, leaving himself alone to slay Ravenna.

One can only remark that Mr. Conrad's obsession with personally ending Ravenna's life, a "ceremonial sense" born of nobility, led to his justifiable defeat—even though employing an assassin to directly eliminate Ravenna would have nearly guaranteed success.

However, Conrad's death does not signify the end of this saga.
