Chapter 130
Far from the towns and guild halls—
In places where true power gathered—
They began to hear it.
"…A boy without Touki…"
"…Defeating Sword Kings…"
"…Effortlessly…"
At first—
Dismissed.
Then—
Repeated.
Then—
Confirmed.
And when confirmation came—
Silence followed.
"…That shouldn't be possible."
Because those at the top understood something others didn't:
If it was possible—
Then everything they knew about strength…
Was incomplete.
