Chapter 759: Stop It, Vlad
Celecia knew that Annan was the most beloved by Old Grandmother, unlike other members of the Austere-Winter family.
They could hurt Annan, but they could never kill Annan.
It was Vladmir who told her this.
There was no way he didn’t know.
Even the Rotten Man would pay the price for His stupid actions... not to mention the transcenders like them who were not even deities. They were merely apprentices of the Transcendence Path.
Therefore, when they were in conflict with Annan, they would subconsciously hold back their strength.
Holding back would most likely lead to defeat in the end.
The best approach was to avoid conflict.
Whether it was harming Annan, suppressing his sphere of influence, or even sending an assassin of the same level to kill him, these were all considered normal political conflicts. Old Grandmother would not intervene in such matters.
That was how they had always behaved.
There was no way the Old Grandmother would help Annan capture his enemies.
She was the Tradition Deity — pampering of children and grandchildren was not a tradition to be encouraged. In this cold place, Her preferred tradition was to encourage Her descendants to hunt independently and live independently.
“Eh?” However, at this moment, Celecia suddenly noticed a detail. Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)
Her pupils suddenly tightened.
There was a solidified ice sculpture behind her teacher, Vladmir.
That was Winter’s Hand patrolling the dungeon.
He still maintained the posture of leading the Frost Beast on patrol. He did not even realize that an enemy appeared, and this movement was completely frozen.
The Frost Beast beside him had turned into ashes.
Only a flat and smooth, palm-sized ice-blue gemstone was being toyed with by Vladimir’s other hand.
That was the “heart” of the Frost Beast, their energy core.
While she was completely unaware, the patrolling Winter’s Hand and the Frost Beast had been poisoned!
Even though she lost the power of the ‘Silver’ ship, her body still retained the curse power of a high-ranking curse. There was no way she was completely unaware of this...
No, that’s not right!
That’s not the point—
Celecia was the “Captain of the Stone”. Of course, she knew what it was.
It was an Exalted Avatar.
The “soul essence” developed after having obtained the “supreme crown” and “the perfect essence of the elements”.
Its shape would express everyone’s innermost essential desires and the true nature of the soul.
At this moment, Vladmir summoned the Exalted Avatar... His purpose was obvious.
He wasn’t here to warn Celecia.
He wasn’t here to take her away.
He came to kill Celecia and silence her.
“Do we really have to do this?” Celecia murmured.
Her face was full of despair, and her whole body was as dry as a puppet. It was as if all hope was lost in an instant.
“You said so, Thoreau Nick.” Vladmir’s low and cold voice sounded calm, “You promised.”
“For me, you’re willing to discard your life... Now, I’m here to claim your life.”
“Or... was that a lie to deceive me?”
“No! No! That’s not a lie!”
Celecia reached out and covered her heart as if it wouldn’t hurt anymore.
She sobbed and burst into tears, “That is indeed true! I can really die for the teacher, but—”
It’s just...it shouldn’t be such a cheap death.
It shouldn’t have been executed and silenced as a traitor, but rather a noble and passionate sacrifice—
She suddenly choked up and couldn’t speak anymore.
“There’s no such distinction.” Vladmir replied expressionlessly, “Death is death, and it is nothing else.”
“You have still changed. Thoreau Nick will not attach so many elements to ‘death’, and he will not try to find value in ‘death’...”
“Because Thoreau Nick is my dog, and you... are not anymore.”
“You are right, Vladmir.” A steady voice sounded.
A middle-aged man with frosty hair and gray eyes, wearing a housekeeper’s uniform, walked slowly from the other end of the corridor, “Stop it... old friend.”
“Victor.” Vladmir turned his head, looked at the middle-aged man with a mere Silver Rank, and frowned, “It’s you...”
