Chapter 30 - The Existence of The Holy
Chapter 30: The Existence of The Holy
“Errrrrr…”
Shu Ke looked at Lilia speechlessly. To be honest, this statement was a little conflicting.
Those who didn’t know would think that she had sold herself off.
The members of the Vincent family looked at Shu Ke with disdain, envy, and resentment.
It could be said that because of Shu Ke, the Vincent family had become the bottom out of the three families.
Whether it was Bordeaux or Dreyer, they were both rare geniuses.
However, they were all killed by Shu Ke. From now on, although he looked like he was still a member of the Vincent family on the outside, he had already parted ways.
An enemy, yet he took advantage of the Vincent family to advance step by step.
Yet, the Vincent family couldn’t do anything to this person. How ridiculous was this? How humiliating was this?
Just the thought of it made them feel suffocated. This was truly embarrassing!
Moreover, it was agitating that he had a relationship with such a powerful beauty. It was simply too enviable—AH, NO!! It was hateful, too hateful!
“That—front—”
“Hmmm!?”
Just as the first half of the word was uttered, Lilia glared angrily at Shu Ke like a little tiger. Shu Ke was so frightened that he immediately changed the way he addressed her.
“Sister?”
Shu Ke tentatively called out, and Lilia immediately beamed with joy.
She even said to Toulon with disdain, “Look, even your disciple knows how to speak better than you. What’s the point of you being a teacher?”
“…”
Toulon looked at Shu Ke with a speechless expression. Why didn’t he realize in the past that this kid’s ability to speak against his conscience was so strong?
The Great Elder’s expression was even worse, as if he had eaten shit.
“This little b*st*rd, he actually dared to call her that?”
“Demanding an old monster who was at least 1,000 years old to call her big sister?! Wasn’t he afraid of losing his life?!”
“Ron, I was thinking of letting you train this kid in the future, what do you think?”
Lilia pulled Shu Ke over and asked Ron.
Only now did Ron know that Lilia was a thousand-year-old monster and that she was much superior than him.
Ron didn’t dare to complain at all. He nodded hurriedly as if he was looking forward to it.
And to be fair, Ron actually valued Shu Ke very much.
After all, Shu Ke’s talent was obvious here, and his style of doing things was very much in line with his preference. Moreover, he wasn’t an old-fashioned noble—he wasn’t even considered a noble.
Ron also liked this kind of person very much. After all, in his opinion, nobles were the moths of the kingdom. And sooner or later, they would become the villains of the country!
Therefore, Ron had always been extremely disgusted with those people. So when Shu Ke and the Vincent family completely fell out, Ron couldn’t help but raise his view of Shu Ke to another level.
“Since the assessment has ended, please prepare to leave as soon as possible.”
The great elder saw that he no longer had the opportunity to deal with Shu Ke—this scourge—and immediately ordered Shu Ke to leave.
To him, letting Shu Ke stay in the Vincent family for one more day was a blasphemy against the Vincent family!
“Since someone doesn’t welcome us, then let’s leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, we’ll attract trouble here.”
Although Lilia relied on her own power to suppress the entire scene immediately, she wasn’t really unbridled.
None of the three pillars of the kingdom were to be trifled with. If she relied on her own power, she might be able to suppress these elders for a while. However, if she were to completely fall out with them, it would not be a good thing for her.
Therefore, Lilia didn’t say anything more. Instead, she directly threw Shu Ke to Toulon and rode away on her Griffin.
The remaining few instructors also followed closely behind and left.
Naturally, Toulon could not stay in the Vincent family any longer. He immediately stretched out his arm.
An inverted triangle magic appeared in front of the two of them. Then, a snow-white tiger—with wings and white antlers—appeared in front of the two of them.
“Radiant Winged Tiger?”
The great elder frowned when he saw this magic beast. Just this magic beast’s mount was enough to rival an upper-tier Dou Spirit.
In addition, Toulon was acquainted with that powerful woman. This immediately made the great elder feel that he did not have a thorough understanding of Toulon back then. It was an extremely wrong move to try to rope this person in.
“Great Elder, all these years, I have been freeloading in the Vincent family for so many years. Before I leave, I still caused such an unpleasant scene. I hereby apologize to all of you.”
In the end, Toulon was still a person who valued relationships. Even though he had caused such a ruckus with the Vincent family, he still took the initiative to apologize.
It could also be considered as putting an end to all these years of freeloading in the Vincent family and taking their wages for free.
“HMPH!”
However, these people from the Vincent family did not seem to have any intention of accepting. Instead, they had a very hostile look on their faces.
Regarding this, Toulon could only let out a long sigh, he turned around helplessly and left with Shu Ke.
“Teacher, what’s going on with big sister Lilia?”
While riding on the back of the Radiant Winged Tiger, Shu Ke finally could not help but ask about Lilia.
“This—”
Hearing this, Toulon could not help but laugh bitterly. He then let out a long sigh and said, “Actually, I’m not too sure about the specifics. Lilia and I met forty years ago.”
“At that time, she and I were both members of an adventurer team. Under the leadership of the leader, we went to explore a wizard tower left behind by a Holy Mage.”
“Holy!?”
Shu Ke looked at Toulon in confusion. This was the first time he had heard of the existence of this realm.
“This is the last stop before becoming a god, and it’s also the highest limit that humans can reach. They are the gods that walk on this earth—the eternal sun that gives light and warmth to the world.”
“Almost 90% of the humans in history are the holy bit of existence, including the bravehearts that you are most familiar with.”
“I see.”
With that said, Shu Ke probably understood what kind of existence the holy bit was.
“After we entered this tower, we lost more than 80% of our members in less than a day. But Lilia and I still managed to reach the top of the tower in the end, and we saw an unknown ball of light.”
“And then?”
Shu Ke looked at Toulon curiously. Clearly, he was very interested in this matter.
However, Toulon only let out a long sigh. “And then, I don’t know anything anymore.”
“Ah?”
Shu Ke stared at Toulon in disbelief. ‘Good heavens, your story has already come to this point. What are you telling me? That you don’t know?
‘Do you think I’ll believe your nonsense!?
“I really don’t know. I still can’t remember what happened back then. I only vaguely remember that Lilia’s power increased greatly after that, and she left the adventurer team. I only saw her again today.”
