And thus, she narrated her tale to the gathered Kandrian Sages.
They listened.
With each passing moment, their eyes widened with shock.
Their expressions crumpled with grave severity.
They shook where they stood.
She told them everything.
How she felt her granddaughter's death even as she surged to the Gu from the Gen Temple at the speed of light.
She told them how she had resolved to kill the Demon of Asmodeous in her grief.
She told them how Rui broke through to the Sage Realm and overcame Gu.
She told them how he had accomplished the impossible.
How he had resurrected the dead.
How he had reversed time itself.
She told them how, with his power neutralizing the Demon's, she slayed him.
"…And now, he must pay the price for the extraordinary power he has obtained," Bodhisattva Maitreyi heaved a shaky sigh.
