Bab 55: The Truth Behind the Ritual

Duke Simon, whose heart had been pierced, suddenly took a step forward and tightly strangled Cass.

The terrifying lightning on his body was transmitted to the swordsman through Judgment 4.

Cass wanted to break free, but he was restrained by a powerful force and couldn't move at all. All he could do was watch the lightning spread throughout his body along the knight's sword.

"Congratulations, Cass Durant, the last bloodline of the Black Swordsman. Congratulations on successfully defeating the tyrant living high above and stabbing his heart…"

Duke Simon whispered into Cass's ear. At this moment, his voice no longer carried the might of thunder from the high heavens. Instead, it became extremely illusory and ethereal, like the whisper of a dying person.

Then, intense pain came from Cass's body. The lightning that clung to his entire body began to gather into countless fine rune patterns that were imprinted on his skin and fused into his flesh.
