chapter 38

I asked for Rohan's assistance and he lent me his carriage to guide me back to the cave, thanking me for my troubles. Arriving shortly after, it was once again time to meet the Supreme Sage

"Gaspard, Stop right there! It isn't a good time to come in!"

A red light filled the cave.

"Gnoss, what's going on?"

"I had warned you not to interfere with this Mortal World, Gnoss. I banish you to the void for all eternity!" with this

A ringing sound reverberated throughout the cave and a bright light flashed

"Gnoss!"

The altar upon which he had been sealed disappeared entirely.

"Hello...Gnoss are you there?"

I called out in the cave but there wasn't any response.

"Gnoss, I need you!"

Silence

"Damn, just when you need them most..."

Buuing

"Did you call me?"

Suddenly the gem he was trapped in reappeared through a dimensional rift.

"Wow, I thought you were a goner there."

"Yes, I also thought I would be trapped in the void, luckily the promise of the ring is absolute."

The ring of obedience give off a small light.

"So what just happened to you?"

"Don't worry about it, not a big deal. So have you read the Codex?"

"Not a big deal you say... who was that the being who banished you?"

"It has nothing to do with you. Well, now that you've read the Codex, there is just one last step before becoming a Chosen Warrior.

There was no reason to press the issue, like he said it wasn't any of my business.

"What is it?"

"You need to get my permission as the prophet to the Divine will."

"Ok, let's quickly get it over with."

"Well..."

Something was off, why was he hesitating?

"What's wrong?"

"I met some unfortunate circumstances in the Higher plane, and lost most of my Divine Grace"

"What did you say!"

I spat out both irritated and angry. It was the feeling of having come so far, only to fail at the very end.

"No, it isn't a big deal and the ceremony can still proceed, just that you won't be a complete Chosen Warrior. With the amount of Divine Grace I have left, you can only wield the strength of a Chosen once, before requiring to charge it for around one year's time.

"Is there a way for you to regain your Grace?"

"No, my Grace doesn't regenerate. I only acquired it when I inherited my position as Supreme Sage."

Well there wasn't much of a choice, At least I would be able to release my main body.

"Okay go through with it, but keep in mind that removing your seal will not be my priority."

"I accept because this is my fault, just sometime in the future please remembers to remove my seal. "

He spoke out dejectedly.
