บท 157: The Prophecy of Revenge

It was too unfortunate indeed that it was not truly Don Asuli who had joined them that day.

Because if it was him..... Someone would have brought to light what the tome Pavone had read was pertaining to.

The prophecy made many years ago that someone born of lightning will come to rise as the darkness that Ends the world.

"Are you sure that's what the prophecy truly meant? Lightning?" Calla asked skeptically.

Edelweiss nodded. "Because I did some research in the library as well, and sometimes the rune for lightning can be mistaken for 'poverty-stricken'. Or simply someone struck with unfortunate circumstances. Broken. Flawed."

After all, the symbol of lightning does resemble cracks that slowly spread. It is often regarded as a terrifying omen for the storm, so it makes sense for it to be similar to the rune that represents misfortune.
