Chapter 315: Special effects

Alex had expected Ruby to have some recollection of her father's past, given her surprised reaction. However, it seemed her memories held little beyond the pull towards the Dark Forest.

It made her wonder. If even a powerhouse like Edgar refused to speak his name, perhaps Ruby's father, like the former undead lord, was subject to some divine taboo.

Just how far did the gods' power extend? Could they truly erase someone's existence from the world?

After a moment of thought, Alex decided not to directly share what she knew with Ruby. Instead, she started from the origins of their group of Lords. 

Ruby, hearing about the Lords for the first time, found their situation somewhat pitiable. They were living well, only to be suddenly transported to this strange world to survive.
