Chapter 101-110
Chapter 101
Jack took a couple of minutes to calm his mind. The river of blood in the streets caused his heart to pound as if the sight was begging for someone to seek justice for those common citizens who were innocently slaughtered.

“Technically, he was. But that doesn’t mean that Halmut was a saint just because Skaryn wasn’t,” stated Daruun, catching Jack off guard yet again. “Halmut always claimed to be the most powerful god and was determined to keep it that way. At the time, Trodar was arguably the most powerful nation, all the more reason for Halmut and Skaryn to covet it.”

Even after five centuries have already passed…”
