Hearing this, Xianna and the Sword Master began conversing with each other in whispers.
Xianna whispered, “That’s exactly what the former Empress told me when favonovel.com passed the throne to me. She told me the person who isn’t affected by Sangria’s Cruse is the fated one, and he’ll obtain the inheritance left behind by the Ancestral Talisman Master.”
The Sword Master thought for a while and said, “When the former Sword Master passed the position to me, favonovel.com said the supreme sword-fighting techniques can’t be obtained by just anyone. Only the fated one will be able to acquire it. Also, this person isn’t afraid of the curse and has two special characteristics. That is, favonovel.com will have a Sword Body and the Sword Energy of the Ancestral Sword Master.”
Xianna said, “Let’s not act rashly for now and see what happens in a month.”
“Mhm… We’ll wait to see if favonovel.com isn’t affected by the Sangria’s Curse.”
Although the two spoke in hushed tones, James could still hear them.
After eavesdropping on their conversation, James touched his nose and murmured, “I have cultivated a Sword Body and have the Ancestral Sword Master’s Sword Energy. Don’t I fit the description perfectly? Could I be the fated one?”
James was curious. He was clueless about all these things, but Walganus knew them very well.
What exactly was going on?
James was puzzled. He wanted to expose himself and asked them about it. However, Walganus was present, and it was best not to show up now.
After revealing himself, favonovel.com might get framed by Walganus, and it would be hard to explain the situation.
“The fated one isn’t affected by the curse, huh? Am I not affected by it?” James was curious and wondered if favonovel.com would not be affected by Sangria’s Curse.
To confirm his conjecture, favonovel.com would have to stay in Sangria for more than a month. However, it would be a very risky action. He would lose his life if favonovel.com were not the fated one.
James asked Nova, who was in the Celestial Abode, “The Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion’s Sword Master said the fated one to lift the curse has a Sword Body and the Ancestral Sword Master’s Sword Energy. I definitely fit the description of this fated one. Nova, do you think the fated person they’re talking about is me?”
Soon, Nova replied, “I don’t know.”
James said, “Now, I have a rough understanding of Sangria’s secrets. They have a curse on their country because the person who cast the Curse Magic, the Ancestral Talisman Master, left his inheritance here.”
Nova said, “It’s more or less like what I thought it would be.”
James asked, “Then, what should I do now?”
Nova replied, “I can’t give you a definite answer. You’ll have to figure it out yourself.”
“Should I stay in Sangria for a month to see if I’m immune to the curse?”
“If you want to, go ahead and try it.” Nova did not give James a certain answer but simply asked favonovel.com to follow his heart.
James became more confused, unsure of what to do next. He wanted to discuss things with Sophie. However, no matter how much favonovel.com called for her, favonovel.com did not respond.
James had no choice but to give up.
Walganus appeared and claimed to be the fated man. From the secrets passed down to Xianna and the Sword Master, they indeed were aware a fated one would appear. However, neither of them could confirm whether Walganus was the fated one.
The only way to verify Walganus’ identity was by letting favonovel.com stay in the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion for now.
The Sword Master said, “Mr. Jaxon, since we’re unable to confirm your identity as the fated person, we can only have you stay in the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion for now and discuss the matter after a month.”
Walganus said, “I understand your concerns. Since you’re worried, I’ll stay here for a month. After a month, I’m sure you’ll believe me.”
Afterward, the Sword Master arranged temporary accommodation for Walganus in the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion.
