An Su gazed at Merlin and uttered his final words.
---
"But even after your physical work is done, your soul remains imprisoned at your desk."
"Even if I let you go now, you have never truly left your work behind."
"From now on, your spiritual world will toil day and night without rest. Never again will there be a warm, peaceful autumn afternoon like today; a time when you do nothing, think of nothing, free from miscellaneous tasks and idle chores, simply letting the white clouds drift past outside the window."
The young man said with a smile,
"Because every time your soul wants to rest, you will ask yourself in your heart—"
"[How many days of vacation are left?]"
He cracked.
No magic could penetrate the defenses of the God of Law,
not even the so-called space-time magic An Su wielded could detain Merlin but for a brief moment.
It was just a plain sentence, but it broke through Merlin's defenses completely.
