Chapter 1599: Leave it behind (1)
"Can you please explain what all of this is?"
When I heard this, I couldn’t help revealing a faint bitter smile.
After all, this was hard to explain.
It wasn’t as if it would be easy to explain why there was a large flying castle that suddenly crashed down like this.
But I also couldn’t refuse to explain since the one that was asking me this was the representative from the Sorcery Empire.
In the end, we were in the Brownie Kingdom which was considered a vassal of the Sorcery Empire. That meant that the castle that I had sent crashing down had crashed in the territory of the Sorcery Empire.
If anyone else had done it, then it would have been considered an act of war even if it didn’t cause any casualties. Just the fact that there was this castle that crashed down and caused damage would be enough to be considered an act of terrorism.
So for them to give me the chance to explain instead of declaring war was already good enough.
"This is where the Relic of Destruction was sealed."
The representative from the Sorcery Empire deeply knitted his brows when he heard this before turning to look at the representative from the Brownie Kingdom. The representative from the Brownie Kingdom took out some reports that he handed to the representative from the Sorcery Empire.
While they had been interrogating me, they had also sent people to explore the castle that had crashed and these reports were from them.
"They said that they haven’t found a single trace of the Relic of Destruction, but they have found the place where it was stored. It was similar to the other places where the other Relics of Destruction were stored." After he finished reading this from the reports, he looked up at me with narrowed eyes to say, "Then that means..."
Though he didn’t finish his sentence, the meaning behind his words was already clear.
I didn’t hide anything either as I pulled out the Relic of Destruction.
This time, it was a mirror.
After taking this Relic of Destruction out, I placed it on the table in front of me for everyone to see.
Other than the representatives from the Sorcery Empire, there were also the representatives from the other two empires. As well as representatives from the other races.
The only ones that weren’t on the other side were the ones from the Holy Empire.
After all, the ones from the Holy Empire had emerged from the castle along with me, so it wasn’t as if they could be on the interrogating side. They could only be on the interrogated side since they had been working with me.
Once this Relic of Destruction came out, everyone took the time to come forward to take a closer look at it.
Though when they did look at it, it seemed that most of them didn’t actually know what to look for. After all, it wasn’t as if they knew how to identify that this thing was a Relic of Destruction in the first place.
They did what they thought they could do, but there really wasn’t anyone that had a concrete method.
That was until the Merman King came forward with a trident in hand.
He brought that trident up to the Relic of Destruction and then there was a reaction that came from the trident. The trident was suddenly covered in this blue light, as if it was resonating with the Relic of Destruction.
When everyone saw this, they had the confirmation that they needed.
Everyone knew what this trident was and where it came from, so they knew that this was a divine artifact that had been passed down through the royal family of the Merman Empire.
Only a divine relic would be able to resonate with a Relic of Destruction like this.
So at the very least, they were certain that this thing was the Relic of Destruction like I said.
But after that, it wasn’t as if they were able to do anything else to it.
Once it was confirmed, there were even some people that couldn’t help taking a few steps back while looking at the Relic of Destruction with a wary look.
It was as if they were afraid of the Relic of Destruction with the way that they looked at it.
But that couldn’t be blamed on them since they had seen what the Relic of Destruction was capable of. Especially those from the Democratic Union since they had experienced the outburst of corruption energy in their lands previously.
Seeing that they were done analyzing this Relic of Destruction, I said, "The seal is still working and this thing is perfectly sealed. It hasn’t been tempered with at all compared to the other Relics of Destruction."
There were some people that looked at me with looks of doubt when they heard this.
The Sorcery Empire representative took the lead to ask, "Are you certain of this?"
I didn’t say anything as I gave a simple nod in response.
There was a silence that hung in the air after I gave this response, but they chose to accept what I said in the end before turning back to look at the Relic of Destruction again.
It was clear that many of them were thinking about what they should do next with this Relic of Destruction.
After another silence, the Sorcery Empire representative was the one that broke it by asking, "What do you plan on doing with it now?"
"I want to take it back and seal it away. I think that the Holy Empire is the most suited for performing this task."
There was a mixed reaction that came from the crowd when they heard this.
There were some that agreed with this and naturally there were some that didn’t agree with this.
But the ones that didn’t agree with this weren’t doing this because they doubted the powers of the Holy Empire.
Rather, they didn’t agree and simply didn’t want to let this Relic of Destruction be taken away like this. Rather, it was clear that they wanted to take this Relic of Destruction for themselves.
It was just that there was no basis for them to act.
