Kapitel 508: Matheus

Matheus could feel the cold sharpness in Ryu's tone. He could even feel that in Ryu's eyes, these words alone were an act of mercy and his way of being tolerant. In fact, it could be said that the only reason Ryu didn't kill Matheus back then was because he was fully aware that he couldn't. 

Back then, when Matheus stopped him from killing City Lord Loom, Ryu had already wanted to lash out. The reason he didn't was because he knew that he wasn't a match for him.

Not only had Matheus been hiding his cultivation, as a Necromancer, he could control puppets that were far beyond Ryu's means. Not only that, but he could control multiple of them at a level potent enough to become a Throne of his Sect. 

For Ryu, who had only just entered the Divine Vessel Realm after skipping over the Spiritual Severing Realm, he was too lofty of a goal.
