"The honor bestowed upon you by heaven and earth, truly remains unchanged."
"What a pity, for today it should belong to my lineage of the Divine Rune...."
"Just like everything you took from the Progenitor back then."
He stretched out both hands, those withered and thin palms filled with wrinkles emitted an immensely powerful aura—the power of a god!
For in the center of both palms, there indeed lay a pair of the Eyes of the God!
