Chapter 3125 Attempt to Kill

Inside Gratlur's office, the old man had quite a pleased expression on his face. "Zangeshu, is that true? Have you decided to work and take my place?"

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." Nôv(el)B\\jnn

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."

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.'

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.
