"Tsk."Chreshler clicked his tongue, still uneasy. He believed Pagma was dangerous and should be killed. However, he didn't want to risk being harmed by such a disaster. In the end, Chreshler chose to flee.
In any case, I'll die soon. The fate of this world should be borne by those left behind.
That was all he thought.
He didn't know anything else. He would just rest.
This was his final thought.
Chreshler's consciousness was cut off.
He had died.
Chreshler's earlier bluff—that he would die if he pushed himself too hard—had not been an exaggeration. As his vision darkened…
"Go peacefully. I will respectfully enshrine your soul in the Sacred Wood Coffin."
Pagma could be seen bowing politely.

"Huh? I learned two skills?" Alan muttered.
"I understand learning Pagma's Sword Dance—I had a quest for it, so that makes sense. But how did I learn Chreshler's power as well?" Alan frowned in confusion.
"Are you Alabantino's Successor?" Chreshler suddenly asked.
Alan nodded. "Yes… but how did you know?"
"Because only that absurd man was born with Heavenly Eyes—eyes that allow one to copy any skill after seeing it once. Ironically, such a gifted individual wasted himself on blacksmithing. What a fool," Chreshler clicked his tongue.
