Defying the Fate of Beheading

Chapter 178: Keep Going Forward Don’t Look Back Ahead Lies the Warmth of Humanity (6400 Words)_3


"As for the Eye of Fear in the East Monet and West Monet Kingdoms…"

Fox said numbly:

"That was just the first place where the Dust World Serpent emerged. Initially, everyone thought like I did, minding their own business, staying aloof."

"Look at the results now, nearly half of the weak spots in the underground spaces of Star Continent are places where it emerged."

For a moment, Louis didn't know what to say.

Even he was filled with remorse, pounding his chest.

Damn it, if they had sealed it back then honestly, it wouldn't have become this troublesome.

Fox said sternly:

"So do you understand now? The object of the Jade Phoenix Mage's Oath is this world."

"The scars left by the Dust World Serpent in our homeland made it cry out endlessly."

"And the Jade Phoenix Mage, who stood most firmly against the Dust World Serpent, fought until only 13 remained."

"The predecessors who successfully divided the Dust World Serpent suffered its wickedest curse. Since then, each generation of Jade Phoenix Mages could only number thirteen."

"But also because of the determination of the predecessors, we received the world's blessing."

"That blessing is called the Emerald Sacrifice."

Fox looked at Louis with a slight smile and said:

"So do you understand? Each succession of the Jade Phoenix points to those who share common traits with their predecessors."

"If one day the world falls into peril again because of the Dust World Serpent, you too will make the same choice as we did."

"Choice?" Louis was indifferent.

Sorry, bro, I'm a cheat, not a naturally born Jade Phoenix Mage.

This has nothing to do with me!

As Fox said this, the surrounding memory space once again changed.

The flow of time began to accelerate.

After this battle, Fox started to travel more frequently across the continent.

He went about repairing those weak spots in space that appeared but no one attended to.

One year, two years, three years…

Time passed unconsciously.

One day, he felt the spatial node his mentor had once sealed begin to destabilize again, so he went to Tunisia to investigate.

But halfway there, he suddenly had an epiphany.

He had a premonition that once he went, he would never return.

At his level, he could perceive some omens.

So he contacted the Grand Councilor and told him there was a chance he might not come back this time.

Then he went to see the dying Mage Grom.

Perhaps sensing something, before leaving, the ailing Grom awoke from his slumber and entrusted him with this flame.

Then he arrived at the place where it all began.

It was where he inherited the Jade Phoenix Mage legacy.

Here, he saw the Tunis Knight Order, who had been stationed for a long time.

The swarming monsters were blocked by them in a gully, with no chance of escape for the monsters.

They were a group of knights worthy of respect.

Of course, Fox's main purpose here was not to fill space fissures.

Years ago, because his mentor died too suddenly, he could only hastily explode part of the Dust World Serpent's body into pieces here and then seal up the surrounding space.

Fox sensed that those bodies were beginning to converge again, so he came here deliberately.

Here, he discovered that near the opposite of the spatial fissure, some Angel Race was fighting demons.

He recognized one of the angels.

It was in the early years, while practicing magic, he had accidentally summoned a Blazing Celestial Divine Attendant.

That was a very powerful and kind angel.

He told Fox he really wanted to help Fox seal the spatial fissure, but the battle was too urgent for him to spare a hand.

It's said they've been fighting demons in this area for a long time.

Fox said it's okay.

His main purpose this time was to deal with the Dust World Serpent.

Once the Dust World Serpent was resolved, the space issue could be left to Tunisia to manage slowly.

That was his initial plan.

Fox's soul and body lifted his head, glanced at Louis, and said:

"You are called Mayer, right?"

Louis glanced back and said: "You can call me Louis, Mayer is one of my identities."

He had a premonition that Fox was leaving.

Fox chuckled and said:

"This time, thank you."

Louis was puzzled:

"Thank me for what?"

Fox did not reply, his body grew fainter and eventually completely dissipated into the air, leaving only a flickering emerald fire burning brightly.

"Can't hold on anymore?"

Louis murmured quietly.

He glanced around, Fox was gone, but the memory scene continued to progress.

In the memory scene.

Fox and the Tunis Knights had stayed here for a long time.

Fearful of death, he cautiously, time and again, sent away the continuously converging body of the Dust World Serpent through the Emerald Fire.

There were currently no more efficient ways to handle such an existence on the continent.

So he could only use the cumbersome method of the Jade Phoenix Mage to send it away piece by piece.

However, as the Emerald Fire was continuously used, Fox grew more fatigued and increasingly struggled to muster any spirit.

He started to feel tired.

Feeling his spirit was close to exhaustion.

Suddenly one day.

Fox met a mage.

It was a high-level mage from the Wise Council.

The high-level mage came to tell Fox that the Grand Councilor already knew what was happening here and that a Jade Phoenix Mage from the Ense Empire would soon come to take over the Jade Phoenix legacy.
