Chapter 797: Madness and Wrath

As the emperor heard the mention of a certain man, he flinched his head toward the sky. His eyes lingered on the parting clouds as if trying to see what was beyond them. Then, they returned to Cassius.

"Why is he here?"

"Because we lost against a boy and a girl," said Cassius before turning toward the giant wolf. "Although I doubt that count as a boy anymore."

"No! I haven't lost yet, and I will fulfill the prophecy!" said the emperor as he tried to rise, but his wounds ran deep. Cassius stared at him before raising his finger.

"Return," muttered the Sin of Pride before the blood on the flood started flowing back into the severed veins of its owner. Then, it started resupplying the organs. "At least now, you won't die of blood loss. You can't win against him anymore, Joseph, son of Voldor."

"If we work together, then," said the emperor with a trembling hand as he stared at Cassius. "We can win!" shouted the emperor.
