CHAPTER 7562

James suddenly interrupted Yianni. "What do you gain by helping me like this, Master? What do you get from the Five Shadowborns? Is it just because you appreciate me?"

Yianni was stunned by the question.

James smiled, "You don't have to answer me if you can't. You're my master, and I won't force you. However, you shouldn't pressure me either. We both have our convictions."

"I don't want us to part on bad terms with an unpleasant final memory."

Yianni's brows knitted as he looked at James, his expression hard to read. However, James saw the complexity flashing in his eyes.

They looked at each other for a long time before bursting into laughter for no apparent reason. Sitting down again, Yianni opened another jar of wine and pushed it toward James. Then, he opened one for himself, lifting it high.

"Since we want a perfect farewell, let's use this wine to honor our friendship."

James nodded, raising his jar high.

"After this farewell, it's hard to predict whether we'll meet again as enemies or friends. But no matter what, I, James, will always respect you as my master."Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Yianni laughed heartily. "I will always recognize you as my disciple. Noz matter when and where, as long as your name, James, is mentioned, my followers and I will treat you with respect."

They stared at each other, clinked their wine jars, and drank. They shared a farewell wine and mutual respect as opponents.

James finished his wine and placed the jar down. To his surprise, Yianni had disappeared without a trace, as if he had never been there.

"Master!" James shouted, feeling a pang of sadness, and then slowly closed his eyes.

Suddenly, a vast energy ball with a buzzing sound flew through the void, its surface marked by five blood-red swastikas. As the energy ball slowly approached James, he opened his eyes and grabbed it.

A bright swastika light emanated from the energy ball, manifesting into a long scroll in the void.

Yianni left the answers James

wanted to know but never asked t

also held Yianni's regrets,

el

helplessness, parting words, and

promises to James.

Seeing every rune and symbol on the scroll, James felt his heart squeezed by an unseen hand, both shocked and helpless.

Suddenly, a brilliant amethyst-gold light flashed from James' body, transforming into Frona's beautiful figure.
