The Man's Decree

“Indeed, I am the bearer of divine markings of Duad Formation Sect. Carlo recommended you to me. He was singing your praises so highly that I thought he was just bragging. I didn’t expect you to actually have some skills, so Carlo hadn’t lied. But he was right about one thing, though. The core essence of Duad Formation Sect’s arcane array is something we can never share with outsiders. However, to have you consider Carlo as your mentor and to let him lead you into Duad Formation Sect? He’s hardly worthy. I can be your mentor, so you can pledge your allegiance to me now,” Divinus said, his face beaming with a smile.

Jared gazed at Carlo, who was unconscious, as he asked in confusion, “Given that you’re the esteemed array runes master of Duad Formation Sect, why would you turn against your own disciples?”

“Because I didn’t want him to know that the two of us met for a chat! I’ve told him before that I have absolutely no interest in you and I don’t want to see you. I certainly can’t embarrass myself and give Carlo something to laugh at!” Divinus explained.

It was then that Jared understood. It turned out that Carlo had mentioned Jared to Divinus, but the latter showed no interest.

Only then did Carlo invite Jared and explained the situation. His intention was to persuade Jared to join Duad Formation Sect and gradually learn about the array runes.
