Crossroads of Strength and Secrets

Vera recalled the battle from that day.

The Fire Dragon Blade of Darian, engulfed in flames.

The technique of Reverse Scale Ignition.

That flame must have been his Sword Aura.

It wasn't fixed in a solid form, making it appear like real fire...

"Is that so?"

"Because of that, the Heaven's Net Lord, who was practically the right hand of the sect leader, resigned from his position and retired to the countryside."

"...I see."

"If he's at the entry-level of the Supreme Peak, that would make him similar to your level."

Whether it was due to that or not, Vera did not know.

Perhaps he had realized something after losing someone as well.

Vera quietly lowered her gaze.

What good was it to realize something now?

Would his regrets bring back her dead parents?

No.

Would his remorse revive his dead son?

That too, was impossible.

The cycle of vengeance could not be broken.
