Chapter 3125 Attempt to Kill
Roan nodded with a serious expression. "That is not a problem... However, something tells me it would be a little useless even if I do so."
Gratlur didn\'t expect such an answer from his great-grandson. "Useless? Why? Could it be you think the others won\'t accept you? There is no need to worry. This is not something that will happen now. We will take our time to train you properly until you are perfectly ready for the job. No one will complain about it, especially considering your talent with those three Sub-Jobs."
Of course, that wasn\'t the reason Roan thought it to be useless... Well, it wasn\'t really Roan to start with, but Zangeshu. "Forget about the others. Great-Grandfather. Recently, I found out a piece of news that greatly concerned me. You do know that the next Millennial Divine Werdlem Stone contest will happen in a few hundred years, right?"
Gratlur narrowed his eyes, not expecting such a topic to surface. However, considering what \'Zangeshu\' spoke about, Gratlur wondered if his great-grandson knew something. "Alright, I\'m listening. Why bring the Millennial Divine Werdlem Stone up now? That is still 415 years away. You haven\'t even been alive for that long. Besides, you definitely won\'t reach the Transition Realm before it happens next time, even with your talent."
Although Gratlur said such a thing, Roan understood immediately that Gratlur was hiding something. "Great-grandfather, we both know that you absolutely love this job. Yet, in the last few years, you changed your instance and you are pushing for me to take your position so hard. As you know, I didn\'t have much interest in being the next director. Actually, I still don\'t."
Roan continued. "However, with this piece of news I just got my hands on, everything began to make sense. Great-grandfather... just what will happen to this planet?"
That was the reason Roan captured Zangeshu and took his place. Back when Karev explained his reason for wanting to leave the planet, Karev\'s brother inferred that something terrible was going to happen when the Millennial Divine Werdlem Stone contest arrived. He was adamant that Karev should absolutely leave the planet before that day arrived.
Unfortunately, Karev\'s brother lost his will again shortly after, and Karev wasn\'t able to find out why he must leave the planet at all costs. While he was in control of his own body, he said it couldn\'t even be a planet in the same Solar System. It had to be somewhere, far, far away. Karev and his brother were extremely close, so Karev trusted his brother that something would happen for sure. Too bad that Karev\'s brother ended up dying later.
Rean and Roan are doing their best to reach the Void Tempering Realm as soon as possible. If everything goes okay, they will reach that level way before the contest arrives. However, there was no guarantee everything would truly work according to the plan. If they ended up needing more than 415 years, they at least needed to know exactly what was going to happen here.
The thing about Zangeshu and Gratlur just so happened to be a coincidence. Roan took Zangeshu and read his most recent memories of the previous years, stopping after that to not damage Zageshu\'s soul. Nonetheless, it was enough for Roan to notice the sudden change in Gratlur\'s position towards the Inquisition Forging Hall. It was too sudden. Someone who always held his director\'s seat with such strength was now doing his best to pass it forward. Why was that?
Roan came here exactly to ask about what would happen in the contest, and these signs matched each other. If even someone like Gratlur, who would rather die than give up his director\'s position, was trying to get away, then things must be quite dire. Gratlur\'s eyes narrowed, his expression turned dark, and no answer came from it. Instead, Gratlur\'s Spiritual Energy spread, grabbing \'Zangeshu\' in the next instant. Above all, the red color of killing intent was thick. There was only one thing that would happen next, and that was \'Zangeshu\'s\' death.
Both Rean and Roan were surprised by that sudden turn of events. Another part of Zangeshu\'s memories showed how Gratlur was proud of his great-grandson. He should never have changed like this to the point he wanted to kill Zangeshu straight away. \'Roan!\' Rean\'s voice echoed in Roan\'s mind. \'He is struggling!\'
Roan looked at Gratlur and could see his expression changing nonstop. The killing intent increased, but Gratlur seemed to be resisting with all his might to not kill Zangeshu.
How could Rean and Roan not understand? Gratlur was just like Karev\'s brother. He was someone who lost his real Will and had to be absolutely loyal to the Inquisition Hall and the Werdlem Empire. There is no doubt. The moment Roan touched on the topic of the events for the Millennial Divine Werdlem Stone Contest, some kind of trigger activated. Now, that trigger was forcing Gratlur to kill Roan.
Roan could escape any time he wanted, so he wasn\'t worried. However, he wanted to see if Gratlur would manage to recover his real Will for a moment, just like Karev\'s brother did. \'It seems like that deep bounds, like familiar ones, can suppress the control the Inquisition Hall has over their Will to a small extent. It won\'t last long, though.\'
Rean nodded. \'Can we do something?\'
Roan shook his head. \'He is a Transition Realm expert, while I\'m just a Soul Transformation one. We will never be able to break through his Spiritual Energy defenses to access his soul. Whatever is forcing him there, we can\'t touch it as we are now.\' n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Finally, Gratlur lost the power of control over his soul again. His great-grandson wasn\'t enough for him to recover his Will, even if for a short moment. He immediately punched forward, trying to destroy Roan\'s body with all his might.
*Zush!*
However, Roan immediately disappeared, leaving only the confused Gratlur behind. Roan entered the Celestial Soul Dimensional Realm.
