”Do you also know about the origins of the Blade of Justice?”
James looked at Waylon puzzledly.
Waylon nodded and said, “I didn’t know anything at all in the beginning. I only managed to come to this conclusion
upon seeing the two swords merge into one.”
“Huh?” James momentarily froze before asking, “What do you mean?”
Waylon explained, “That’s because the two swords are made out of the same material. A long time ago, King
Quavon obtained a piece of Ascenium Steel and summoned the world’s best blacksmiths to forge the Primordial
Sword. Meanwhile, Dragonslayer of Divine Sword Villa was forged using the leftover material of the Primordial
Sword. Although a few other materials were used during the forging process, Ascenium Steel remained its core.”
“I see…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRealization dawned on James’ face.
“By the way…”
As if reminded of something, Waylon looked at James and asked, “Legend has it that the Primordial Sword comes
along with the First Sword Art. Did you receive it too?”
James shook his head, “No.”
“What a shame.” Waylon said, “Legend has it that only King Quavon managed to cultivate the First Sword Art. Ever
since then, it simply disappeared without a trace. Let’s hope that this unparalleled sword technique would one day
emerge once more.”
James was not interested in the First Sword Art. After all, he had obtained the Polaris Sword Art, of which he had yet
to gain full insight. Once he achieved total insight, his sword technique would reach even greater heights.
Now that he had obtained Dragonslayer, he had to return to the Capital as soon as possible.
“As I have something else to attend to, I’ll be taking my leave. Farewell.”
Callan said, “Since there’s no need for me anymore, I’ll return with James to the Capital.”
Waylon waved his hand and said, “Get going, then.”
Callan said, “By the way, please don’t forget about Excalibur.”
“Worry not. I still have some leftover material from forging Dragonslayer. They will be more than enough to repair
Excalibur. However, the process could require a few years.”
“I’ll leave everything to you.”
After saying their goodbyes, James and the rest turned to leave.
The moment they left Divine Sword Villa’s sphere of influence, Thomas appeared.
James had seen Thomas from the corner of his eye. He simply chose to ignore him. Now that Thomas appeared
before him, he was slightly irritated. After all, it was all Thomas’ fault that Thea was in a dire situation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Congratulations, James.” Thomas slowly walked over to James while wearing a bright smile.
James glared at him.
“What’s wrong? Annoyed at me?” Thomas scratched his nose.
“What do you think?” James did not hold back. He simply said coldly, “It was because of you that Thea is in such a
condition.”
“Wait, what’s wrong with Thea?” Thomas interrupted him.
“Because of you, something happened to her blood. She doesn’t have long to live.”
Hearing this, Thomas walked over to Thea, grabbed her hand, and took her pulse.
Thea did not resist.
After a while, Thomas released his grip and furrowed his eyebrows, saying, “The situation is rather dire.”
Looking at James, he said, “This wasn’t my intention, James. I never expected this to happen. I only wanted to give
her a push to test her limits. I wouldn’t have done such a thing if I’d known.”
“Just leave. I don’t want to see you,” James said coldly.
