Chapter 192: Confronting the Past (2)
Tuk!
Tutuk!
The dust which rose because of the attack, penetrated through the darkness. They could see unpleasant pieces of something falling from the sky through their restricted field of vision.
It was the flesh of the Devil, a horrific remnant that drove people into panic just by touching it.
Fortunately, no one was directly exposed, nor was anyone caught in the aftermath.
Lulu, who transformed, was guarding the exploration members, but all the destructive power was concentrated on the Devil.
It was a miracle created by Ignet Crescentia’s amazing swordsmanship coupled with Anya’s sorcery which had used up 3 years of her savings.
‘… it rendered me speechless.’
Sevion Brooks and Perry Martinez had the same thought.
They had seen too many things in the last 5 minutes.
Airn examined his sword.
After confirming that not just the handle, but that the entire blade was now dyed in gold, he raised his aura with all his might.
This chapter might’ve been confusing to many, especially concerning the old man, since the change was very abrupt. So, what I’ve understood from it was that, there was always a part of the old man’s soul chasing the clown. What we see here is not the physical body of the old man but rather a form of spirit.
I’m convinced that this is so since the old man goes into Airn’s sword after he decides to rest and also because, he could live for so long. He also says, "I am dead" which tells me that, that exact moment is when that part of the old man's soul realized that his real body had already passed on from this world.
Alternatively, the old man's soul probably could've resided in Airn (which I see a strong possibility for as well) the entire time. It would explain the sentence 'Airn felt something inside him escape.' It might've been an indicator of the transition from the soul being dormant inside his body before, and after it woke up, it was attributed to Airn's sorcery sword changing.
This sentence leads me to believe that what I thought the last chapter and included in the editor's notes were indeed correct. Devils are stronger than demons are. And while demons have been found on the continent even now, it is very hard to come across a devil.?192 chapters of 'old man' and now, we get Karen. This author and his love for naming male characters with female names is mindblowing.?
