Chapter 280: Had She Known Earlier
If someone familiar with her demeanor from the Divine Mountain Immortal Island saw her current state, their mouth would open so wide that an egg could be stuffed into it.
If they had not seen it with their own eyes, no one would have thought that the Grandmaster, who had always been cold and seemed to not care about anything, would actually have such a moment… the emotions of a human being would actually surface on the Grandmaster.
“Back then, we had clearly agreed… to break through to the Divine Realm together and survive together? Why… why have all of the promises not been kept…”
“Now… I’m the only one who has reached the Divine Realm… Why are you gone just after I went into seclusion…”
“If I had known this would happen, I would have…”
Corsia stared at the portrait, the grief in her heart slowly flowing out. The more she spoke, the more sorrowful she became. The regret in her heart was unbearable.
More than 600 years ago, like Romo, she was a lone Mage who had just entered the magical world. She basically knew nothing. At that time, her magical power level was even lower than that of the Great Mage Romo.
Every day, she would follow behind Romo, shouting, “Brother Romo…” along the way.
She was only following behind mainly because there was already someone beside Romo at that time…
Later on, Corsia met her master. At that time, she was still ignorant, so it was naturally a rare opportunity… but her master wanted to take her away.
...
At that time, she had already planned in her heart that if Romo were to tell her not to leave, she would give up the opportunity that had descended from the sky.
However, Romo did not reveal anything after hearing the news. He only said, “Not bad, girl, you’ve hit the jackpot. You have to cherish this well.” He was really happy for her, even more happier than she was for herself… He advised her to concentrate on cultivation when she got there.
With no excuse to stay, Corsia followed her master in a daze.
When she arrived at the Divine Mountain Immortal Island, she was surprised to find that her master was from the Divine Mountain Immortal Island. It turned out that she had already joined the Divine Mountain Immortal Island, one of the two strongest factions in the magical world!
There were many rules on the island, and the people on the island did not go out unless there were special circumstances.
After joining the Divine Mountain Immortal Island, Corsia focused on magical cultivation. Every day, there was nothing but cultivation.
With her master’s careful nurturing and full expectations, she successfully passed the most difficult test and became her master’s personal disciple. From then on, her cultivation became even smoother, and she became a Great Archmage not long after.
Then, by chance, Corsia learned that Brother Romo was about to marry someone.
After hearing the news, she did not leave the island to witness the marriage because of the rules of the Divine Mountain Immortal Island, and also because she was reluctant to go and see it with her own eyes…
However, she still found someone to deliver the wedding gift for her. It was filled with the treasures she had saved up after arriving at the Divine Mountain Immortal Island.
After getting someone to send it over, she went into seclusion to cultivate. When she came out again, it was more than a hundred years later. At this moment, Corsia was already a Divine Mage.
After more than a hundred years of cultivating in seclusion, coupled with her divine-tier mental state of comprehension, her personality had also become tainted by the boundless silence. She no longer loved to smile, nor did she want to talk to others.
After coming out of seclusion, Corsia had specially inquired about Romo’s current situation and knew that he had made a name for himself in the Holy Light City and had even established the Nicholas family clan. He was very famous in Ferrero.
Knowing that Brother Romo was doing well, she did not go over to disturb him. She then went into seclusion again to cultivate.
When she came out of seclusion this time, it was already 500 years later.
When she asked around again, she learned that Romo had died very soon after she had gone into seclusion. The Nicholas family had encountered many changes, and the entire family clan had even almost perished…
“If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have separated from you and gone to the Divine Mountain Immortal Island with Master… So what if I can’t cultivate to the Divine Realm? If I could accompany you and die together…”
“No matter what, it’s better than living alone…”
“But… it’s too late…”
“I…”
A drop of crystal streaked across her cheek, and Corsia muttered in a daze.
As she knew that there was no one here, she did not hide the thoughts in her heart at all. She revealed all her thoughts, one after another.
But this place… someone was actually here.
Moreover, he was almost right in front of her!
Romo floated in the air, momentarily speechless. His emotions were extremely chaotic.
He had wanted to let the other party know of his existence a few times, but he stopped himself a few times. Forget it… Let’s keep it this way for now…
… …
When Corsia was muttering to herself in the ancestral hall of the Nicholas family clan, the flying ferry had finally returned to the Nicholas family clan as the people of the Holy Light City had been anticipating.
When they looked into the horizon and saw the familiar shadow of the flying ferry, many people could not close their mouths. The Holy Light City was instantly in an uproar.
The members of the Nicholas family were in the front yard, eagerly waiting. They were somewhat excited.
Soon, the Sacred Mist Ferry descended from the sky and landed in the courtyard.
The clansmen immediately surrounded them and asked about their well-being. It was lively for a while…
The family head Norton told everyone to dismiss for the time being, leaving only a few core members of the family and the few people, who had just alighted from the flying ferry, to talk in the reception hall.
In the hall, Norton immediately asked when he saw that everyone was seated, “What has happened in the Red Rose Sea?”
After getting some answers, he asked again, “…Is this true? And… what else? Why haven’t I seen that Divine Mage senior?”
As Ron and the others explained, Norton, Zoro, and the others gradually confirmed the authenticity of the rumors one by one, and then they were all stunned.
“What? The rumors… are true!!”
“Does this Divine Mage senior from the Divine Mountain Immortal Island really have a deep relationship with the Nicholas family?!”
“What?! Does our family clan have such a relationship? Why was I not aware…”
When the clansmen who had stayed in the Holy Light City suddenly heard the rumors, they did not believe a word. They had not heard anything about it!
It was only now that everyone clearly heard it directly from Ron, and it was indeed the truth. Everyone was still in a daze, unable to recover. They were puzzled, shocked, and at a loss…
Moreover, what Ron and the others knew was limited.
After all, they had not dared to ask in detail at that time. Later on, Senior left the flying ferry.
They were also at a loss, not knowing what was going on.
Everyone knew the situation, but it caused even more questions, especially those related to that Senior… Why had she suddenly left when she was almost here?
Everyone was simply confused… They knew in part but it was as if they knew nothing!
They became even more puzzled and the curiosity was unbearable.
However, the members of the Nicholas family present all had the same thought in their hearts. This was a thought not known to outsiders. Perhaps, the Old Ancestor knew the key.
When the night came, the Old Ancestor might give some instructions.
