With that in mind, the second the aurablade appeared, the girl instantly felt a burning sensation within her body! Now trembling in fear, the child quickly wailed, “Y-you’re strong! It was wrong of me to say that! P-please don’t kill me…!”
“Then spit it out. Just so you know, if this aurablade continues to burn through you, you won’t even get a chance to revive! You’ll be completely erased, got that?” commanded Gerald. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“I… I’ll talk! J-just flip to the fifteenth page of that book! Once you get to that page, place your hand on it…!” yelled the terrified girl as she began pointing toward an ancient-looking book on one of the shelves.
Grabbing it, Gerald then asked, “This sutra?”
“Y-yeah!” whimpered the girl as Gerald did as she instructed…
All of a sudden, a rumble was heard and shortly after, bricks began to shift! By the end of it, a small space was revealed! Upon peering inside, Gerald was greeted by the sight of a few neatly arranged drawings… and once he gave them a better look, Gerald’s eyes instantly lit up.
One of the drawings showed the exact location of the ancient general’s tomb! There were even instructions on how to get to the main chamber! Everything was here!
Delighted, Gerald quickly began making a copy of all the information and once he was done, he returned all the paintings to where he found them. While doing so, however, he noticed the presence of
what appeared to be a bottle of medicine within the room. Raising a slight brow, Gerald then popped the bottle’s cover open to have a sniff and shortly after, a strong demonic spirit entered his nose! From the looks of it, the Zandts used this to cultivate.
Regardless, after placing it back, Gerald walked up to the mirror again before saying, “Alright, I’ll be asking you a few other questions. If you cooperate and answer me honestly, I’ll free you from the mirror so that you can finally reincarnate!”
“R-really?! Then ask away! I’ll share anything I know!”
“For starters, who exactly is the owner of the Trilight Church? The one backing the Zandts,” replied Gerald.
“She’s an extremely powerful cultivator, though she’s actually working for someone else. The true person in charge is not only the actual owner of the Trilight Church, but he’s also the one who sealed my soul in this mirror! Honestly, his cultivation level is about the same as yours, so you know he’s powerful! That aside, I don’t know much else about them since I was given away after being trapped in this mirror… You should know that I’ve had to pretend to be innocent this entire time just to survive!” explained the child.
“You don’t even know that much about them? Then why were you sealed?” asked
Gerald with a slight frown.
“Because I know his big secret… You see, those two used the lives of my entire village in order to cultivate… I was the only remaining survivor, though they eventually sealed me in here… Either way, know that you’re the first to hear this secret!” replied the girl.
“I see… Alright, one final question. Is the headless general really that powerful?” asked Gerald.
Gulping in fear, the girl quickly whispered, “Of course he is. Not even the one who sealed me in this mirror can match him! With that said, you’ll probably have a hard time with the general as well! You should know that the general is actually a demon, just like that man!”
“Oh? Is that so? So you’re saying that after many, many years, the headless general has managed to cultivate from a corpse into a corpse demon?”
“That’s about the gist of it!”
“Hmm… Do you know the name of that man? Can’t be deal with the general? Also, do you know what kind of demon he is?” asked Gerald as he continued piecing more of the puzzle together. There was never any harm in taking the time to fully understand what one was dealing with.
“I don’t really have the answer to most of those, though I do know that he wanted to enter the tomb some five hundred years ago. He eventually gave up since he was unable to deal with the headless general. That aside, while I don’t know his real name, when I was still alive, I heard a guest call him Mr. Z.” replied the girl.
“Loud and clear. Still, I do wonder how Freyr was able to get out alive when the headless general is this powerful…”
“He obviously didn’t encounter the headless general! I bet he was just beaten by a regular demon in the tomb! If he really did encounter the headless general, he’d be dead by now!” replied the child.
