Universe, that piece of work!

"What are you talking about?" 

Nial was a little astonished about the Oracle's words, and couldn't really react properly. He took a while to get back to his senses.

The Oracle didn't give him an answer and kept looking at him. In her opinion, her words couldn't be misunderstood. That meant, Nial was intentionally trying not to understand her!

Thinking that way, the Oracle bit her lower lip.

"You do realize that it's way too dangerous to stay by my side? Fighting the Advocate of the Pryard will probably lead to my death. In fact, even if the fight against him doesn't end like this, I am likely to die from facing hundreds, if not a thousand or more powerful Ancient Gods," Nial pointed out.
