"Master Nicholas, have you... made up your mind?"
Bernadino's Spiritual Body still sat in the wheelchair, slightly tilting his head and revealing a warm and kind smile to Nicholas.
Nicholas II frowned slightly, but he did not say much.
Still, he felt a touch of regret in his heart... At the time he had encountered Bernadino's remaining Spiritual Body, he hadn't been able to kill him directly.
Now it was already too late.
By now, the limbs and head of Bernadino's Spiritual Body had all been restored—his Spiritual Body had fully recovered.
After the full restoration of Bernadino's Spiritual Body, he could even exert pressure on Nicholas II.
This surprised Nicholas II greatly.
Most Gold-Rank Transcendents are merely advanced to Gold; Nicholas, however, is Gold-Rank because without the Book of Truth, he could only stop here.
In Nicholas's memory... within the civilization west of the desert, there were fewer than five Transcendents who could contend with him.
