章 1350: Leavetaking

Ning arrived outside the gates of the now-rebuilt Grazer family manor and had one of the guards inform Lady Clara of his presence. A few minutes later, he was made to follow a young lady to a massive hall in the manor.

As soon as Ning arrived, he felt something attack him. His Essence core switched in an instant and tendrils of darkness grew out from underneath him to grab onto the spikes of shadow that were going for his head.

"Are you trying to kill me, Clara?" Ning asked.

The fair-skinned woman revealed herself from the shadow. "The Ning I know would never die to that," she said.

"I suppose you are correct," Ning said and smiled. "Congratulations on becoming one of the few divinities on this planet. That is not an easy task at all."

Hadden, behind Ning, looked at the lady in surprise. 'A Divinity,' he thought. Someone who had entered the Divine realm. How many such people exist in this world? Just her and Ning?
