"It really is you!" Divine Exorcist Great Sage sighed softly.
His voice, to the Immortal's ears, might as well have been the whisper of a demon. The Immortal, still holding a Fusang Leaf, revealed a frightened expression on his face.
"I always knew this day would come," he sighed quietly.
There seemed to be a sense of relief in his demeanor.
"We spies, we're all bound to be exposed one day. I've always known that, but I still harbored a sliver of hope that I might escape this fate."
Divine Exorcist Great Sage listened quietly to his confession, seemingly moved by his words.
He too was well aware that this was the destiny of every spy.
"Now's the chance!" The Immortal, who was still voicing his inner turmoil, suddenly surged with mana, determined to seize the moment to send out his message.
