Chapter 1264 Say her name

Suddenly, a lot of things made sense to Lex. Jeffrey's obsession with cloning, or perhaps it was the obsession of Sanguis Pluvia, was quite notable. Damian had taken up to cloning, but he was at most trying to recreate a perfect clone of Moon, which was harder than it seemed for reasons he could not understand.

Jeffrey, on the other hand, liked to clone anyone he came across, or anyone who attracted his attention. Maybe it was because, deep down, he knew that he himself was just a clone of someone else, and so wanted to create others just like himself. Whatever his personal or mental issue was, it was a fact that this Jeffrey himself was a clone - though that knowledge had been sealed away so that he himself did not know.

It was only upon undoing a part of the seal on himself that this knowledge came out, and it clearly brought Jeffrey a lot of distress.

After Lex cut off the wyvern's head, he destroyed the soul fragment within, and observed the rest of its body regrow its head.

"I understand making clones of oneself using a technique. The soul is the same, and even the clones are still yourself. But creating biological clones just creates new souls to inhabit the body, just living inside the clone as its own person. Why would one do that? Do you think the real you uses the clones as a backup in case it ever dies? Will the real Jeffrey crush your soul and take over this body if it needs to?"

As the body grew back its head,the wyvern twisted and attacked Lex. But the attack went through the body like it was nothing, and the rage in the wyverns heart was suddenly replaced with a hint of fear.

Was it... was it still caught in the illusion? Even after undoing its seal and raising its power? How was that possible?

Guessing what the wyvern was thinking, Lex asked it a question. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Are you so sure that you really unsealed yourself? Or maybe do you just think you unsealed yourself? Whereas in truth, we're still back in the Trial of Eternity, with only a few seconds having passed in reality. The name is quite apt, don't you think? Within the Trial of Eternity, you are facing an illusory trial that will last all of eternity."

The anger in the wyverns heart suddenly faded, and doubt once again rushed into his mind.

It was the tip of a cobra's face.

The cobra was gold, with streaks of red, blue and green covering its magnificent scales. The cobra was in the Celestial realm, Lex could comprehend that much. But within the Celestial realm, where its strength lay, Lex knew not.

It did not matter. He was prepared even for this.

"Mary, send word," he said in his mind.

"YOU MUST NOT UTTER THE NAME OF HER MAJESTY!" a booming voice roared across the planet, shaking it to its very core, and nearly causing it to collapse in on itself.

The cobra was not even looking at Lex, or anyone else. In fact, it looked incredibly pissed at Jeffrey. But the more it was like this, the more Lex was determined to push the wyvern further. Clearly the identity of Her majesty was a huge and sensitive secret which would upset many things.

Since that was the case, he was determined to learn of it today. Since Sanguis Pluvia had crossed him, then it should be prepared to suffer the consequences.

"Good attempt, Jeff," Lex's voice suddenly echoed across the land, attracting even the cobra's attention, and driving Jeffrey further into madness.

"But in my illusions, I am king."

A portal opened behind Lex, from which Emperor Jotun walked out wearing a grim expression. Since he was assigned by the Henali to represent them at the Inn, naturally he was one of the first Lex was able to recruit into this plan to rid the Origin realm of this vermin.

The situation on the battlefield changed once more, but the greatest change was the spreading crack on the seal in Jeffrey's mind. It could not hold on much longer.
