章節 710: 710. Destruction

The windstorm dispersed when Noah destroyed his grandfather's upper body. The saber-shaped runes fell apart and released their energy in the environment as he relaxed.

Silence filled the area inside the scarred defensive walls, and Noah found himself alone in the middle of the wrecked mansion. His consciousness couldn't sense any trace of life, and his eyes could only see the ruins of what had once been his home.
