"I've told you countless times, don't let your power be controlled, but after so many years, you still haven't grasped this key point, so you will never be able to defeat me."
Ryze looked disappointedly as he extinguished all the flames on his body with a single thought, revealing Keegan's appearance, but inside, it was completely Brand's Flame Spirit.
The sea parted, revealing Brand who was completely bound by his Rune power. Ryze's expression was quite complicated.
When Keegan's heart was devoured by the World Rune, he was already dead. He thought that all his decisions were his own, but they were only the thoughts of the World Rune. The reason why the World Rune devoured him and made him full of hatred towards himself was not only because of Keegan's own weakness, but also because of a very important matter.
The World Rune had always been longing for his use, wanting him to use their power in this world, just like a long, long time ago, before this world was completely formed, allowing them to use their power without restraint.
The World Rune had their own thoughts, and they also longed for liberation.
Their best carrier in the past was themselves, but now, things had changed.
"Shut up! If it wasn't for your selfishness, how could I have fallen to this state, how could I not be able to defeat you! If I had all the World Runes, my power would definitely be far greater than yours! "
Brand crazily roared, he was nothing without magic, he only had a physique that surpassed mortals. He unwillingly roared at Ryz, he wanted Ryz to give him the World Rune so that they could have another fight.
This kind of child-like thought naturally couldn't be hidden from everyone present, because it was too direct and easy to understand. Only Ryze, who cared about him the most and felt guilty for not being able to help such a young man walk on the right path, was moved by Brand's words, but now, he wouldn't be moved.
"Yes, that's why I won't let you have the chance! And Brand! You never understood, the talent you thought you had, and the huge gap between my talent and yours! "
His thoughts went back to the night before he found the World Rune that represented fire. At that time, Keegan was still trying to learn how to use fire magic. Because of the World Rune, he didn't have the patience to teach the young man, so he just let him train on his own.
At that time, it took him months to learn a simple spell to ignite fire, but it only took him a few hours to learn that spell. Therefore, he felt that it was because Keegan's way of thinking wasn't correct enough. He always wanted to control the magic, and not let the magic do what he wanted it to do. That was why the situation was like this.
He didn't care about this matter. After repeating the main points, he continued to look at the map.
Then, the idea of controlling the source of all magic appeared in Keegan's mind.
If he had enlightened Keegan on that day, or helped him learn that fire magic, perhaps everything would have been different. Unfortunately, this disciple of his was lost in the power of the world runes.
'Now that I think about it, when I approached the World Rune, that World Rune was already tempting Keegan.
Maybe it wasn't. Maybe it was Keegan's own greed?
'No, it doesn't matter now.'
Ryze once again clenched his hand, and Brand once again let out a blood-curdling scream. Strands of red light continuously overflowed from his body, converging towards Ryze.
"My power! My king's power! "
Brand only felt that the power in his body that could make him the king of this world, the most powerful existence, was quickly disappearing. In its place, a slightly smaller red World Rune beside Ryze rapidly grew in size.
Clearly, Ryze was relying on his understanding and control of the World Rune to extract the power in Brand's body, making this furious vengeful spirit go silent and extinguish.
The grudge between them had come to an end. Today was indeed the time to settle everything.
His mistake, in the end, he had to make up for it himself.
"Goodbye, Keegan! No, Brand! "
As the last trace of the World Rune's power was extracted by Ryze, Brand's legs directly knelt on the cracked ground. As the World Rune was extracted, his mortal side was once again revealed. But his body didn't allow him to do anything. He was no longer a mortal body, but a body of ashes used by the World Rune.
When the World Rune's power was still there, there was naturally no problem, but once the World Rune's power was extracted, he immediately turned into a piece of coal.
But in the end, he was forced to regain his mortal consciousness and look in the direction of Ryze, who had greatly changed. He recalled his life.
His life was quite tragic.
Because he was the child of a witch, he wasn't liked by others. His wife was a thief, not only did they steal things, but they also abandoned his mother and himself. And when he finally grew up and was able to help his mother, the only girl who didn't discriminate against him and had a good impression of him, the Patriarch's daughter, married the person he hated the most.
Because it was the Patriarch's request, and also her father's request, the girl he liked the most couldn't refuse. He was heartbroken, but if he still wanted to live, he could only accept it. At least if he was still in this tribe, he would be able to see her.
Then, his mother died. Not only was his mother not buried in the tribe, but after he buried her, his tribe even drove him away and took away everything in his house. Only the girl he loved squeezed out some food for him from her own rations. He was full of resentment. His mother had treated them for so many years, and was constantly neglected by them. In the end, his family ended up like this, so he wanted revenge.
He burned the clan leader to death and was filled with joy. However, the next day, he found out that the fire he set had also burned the person he loved the most. When he rushed into the burning house like a madman, not only was his body burned, his heart was also dead.
And when his inner heart was completely awakened again, it was when he met Ryze. At that time, he fell in the snow because of burns, hunger, and the wind and snow. It was Ryze who saved him and told him that he wasn't an unlucky person who was called since he was young, and that he was a very talented mage.
It was just that he didn't show enough talent, a spell that Ryze casually cast, he couldn't learn it even after a few months.
Then …
Then, he held the rune in his hand.
"Sorry … I failed you."
