บท 521: FEAR will never leave me alone!

This Monster... No, this Machine....Why was this monstrous machine here?

Its ability to absorb Arcane energy made it nearly impossible for anyone to defeat it—anyone except him, with his power over Clarion Energy.

Could this really be a coincidence?... Or had this creature been placed here deliberately, waiting to wreak havoc on the empire?

Was this the beginning of the destruction that everyone had whispered about?

The so-called 'The Beginning'? If so, the devastation was inevitable.

But was that his role—to prevent it?

Was Aether created for this very purpose?

The only one able to wield both Arcane and Clarion Energy without succumbing to backlash.

Why would the Mother Goddess seek to destroy her own creation?

Was he being manipulated again, or... had he stumbled onto the truth?

His mind buzzed with uncertainty.
