The Author's POV

Chapter 819

"It's not your fault, Ren."

My mother's words echoed in my mind as I surveyed my surroundings. I had returned to Ashton City, and I wasn't alone.

All those who had been in the tower with me were also brought out, along with others.

"Ren, it's not—"

My mother began to say once more. As if I hadn't heard her the first time.

"I know."

I interrupted her, my mind numb and thoughts scattered.

Despite everything that had happened, I remained rational and surprisingly calm, unlike what I expected.

Everything became clear to me: what I had to do and what I had to achieve.

"I know it's not my fault."

I said calmly, looking at my mother. From behind her, I glanced at Nola, who averted her gaze from me. I could tell that she was no longer mad at me and had calmed down considerably.

Still, in light of what happened, the mood between the two of us was rather awkward, and she seemed to be struggling to find the right words to say to me.

Her attempts didn't escape my eyes. But I chose to ignore them. For now.

I closed my eyes, then opened them again and directed my focus toward the nearest pillar.

Until this moment, I hadn't had the chance to really take in the tower's details. It was majestic, its intricate patterns and designs radiating a sense of mystery and wonder.

It made me wonder just how exactly Jezebeth had been able to build such a structure, but the thoughts disappeared as fast as they came.

'It's a pity I can't teleport directly into them.'

There was something blocking me from using Soul Linkage. I tried teleporting inside the pillars, but it proved to be a fruitless endeavor.

It seemed as though I was still not adept enough in my control over the laws to surpass whatever was blocking me from entering the pillars.

"If you know it's not your fault, then..."

My thoughts were interrupted by my mother's words.

"I'm going to make those responsible pay."

I declared calmly, maintaining eye contact with her. Before she even had the chance to say any more words, I waved my hand, and they both disappeared from my sight, along with my father's body.

It became quiet again.

"Now then."

I blinked, and the scenery before me changed.

I now stood in front of the pillar.

I clenched my fist tightly, focusing my energy and channeling the laws within my body.

Booom—!

A deafening boom resounded as my fist connected with the tower, sending ripples of energy throughout the world.
