Chapter 294 - 294 Ebony’s Counterattack (3)
294 Ebony’s Counterattack (3)
In a flash, the opposing figure was encased in ice. Floral calmly tapped her magical medium, causing the ice crystal wall to shatter and disappear.
She stepped forward and delicately removed the antler crown from the figure’s head. She turned to William and asked, “Lord William, what do you think now?”
William didn’t need his Undead Detection. The moment the antler crown was taken off, he felt an intense aura of death coming from the figure.
“Mm” William nodded.
Floral then looked at Ebony. His face was frozen, unable to show any expression, but his angry glare spoke volumes.
“This is why I gave you the antler crown. And, I’m sure the Holy Tree Matriarch has told you many times to remove the crown in front of outsiders. Yet, your desire for power in Emerald Province is stronger than your devotion to the Matriarch?”
“In your mind, you should sit on the Withering Throne. In fact, that may have been the case in your timeline if I never existed,” Floral added.
With Nehe’s legacy in hand, Floral was a wild card and unpredictable variable in the synchronization of the two timelines for the Lady of Starvation.
Ebony managed to whisper through his frozen lips, “You vicious woman Manipulator of hearts”
Although he said that, his anger simmered down like a popped balloon.
William approached Ebony and tapped him with his magical medium, instantly dissolving the ice crystals encasing Ebony’s body.
Ebony knelt on the ground, struggling to catch his breath.
William frowned, observing that Ebony still hadn’t fully accepted his undead status by his attempts to breathe.
William intended to help Ebony stand up, but the other man rejected his offer and coldly accused him, “No matter what, you didn’t keep your promise.”
William shrugged and reached into his inventory, pulling out ‘Judgment 3,’ a rough obsidian dagger.
“I believe Camilla intended for me to retrieve this weapon to win my trust, and use me to eliminate the current Holy Tree Duke.”
The dagger floated in midair as William continued, “But Steelheart Widow informed me recently at Black Crow Gaze that the Tacma Church now possesses Judgment 3, which was created by Her.”
With a flash of light, William activated the Light spell, Item Destruction, obliterating the dagger into floating fragments.
After doing all of this, William stood up and looked around.
“Now, let’s move on to our next task. It’s time to take control of the ‘wedges’ in the underground root system.”
