Chapter 510
The Golden Battle Flag fluttered in the hall, its blinding radiance spread out in all directions. Not only did it dispel the darkness, it seemed like dawn had arrived and revealing the details of every runic pattern on the floor. Andrea, Ropar, The Angels, and the Wind Spirit Dragons bathed in the warm rays, the Golem's final line of defense seemed to crumble away just as the darkness did.
However, it was not Brendel who dealt the victory strike.
The Golem still stood a fighting chance, summoning several level 60~70 Devils to take down Ropar and Andrea. But then, the Golem dropped to the ground, like a towering skysc.r.a.per that was wiggling and falling apart.
Bathing under the holy light, the Golem squinted its eyes. It felt as if the world is deviating from the original timeline. And by the time it realised that he had long fallen to the ground.
Brendel watched every moment of it.
He soon realised that the Golem had long overexerted itself, relying just on its own stubbornness to keep going. And upon realisation that all hope was naught, it gave up, entirely.
The Devil with the large sword went up in flames before Brendel's army, a stalk of flames that sparked out of its center, and it turned into ash in an instant.
Not far away, a golden circle lit up on the ground and from within it, Ina and her few summons that remained emerged. The Primordial Sin Emrakul was long gone. As she looked back, the first thing she saw was the Pendulum Golem on the ground, and it made her cast an empty gaze.
Looking at that sight must not have felt good for her. Brendel thought.
As it laid on the ground, the rhythmic 'tic, toc' that came from beneath the hood gradually became softer. The Golem was not speaking, and who knows what it was thinking. Its summons and magic spells vanished. All was just like an illusion, never before existed.
Ina came over, her eyes red with tears as she knelt down next to the Golem. "You d.a.m.ned tin can! What are your intentions? I really don't get you!"
"I was trying...to protect...Master's rules..." it muttered with its metallic voice that seemed to be fading off, "Every single step of Master's strategy is necessary. If he was unable to defeat me, I would have killed him. I cannot...let down the wishes… Such a huge burden… We cannot handle making a mistake…"
Ina fell silent.
"Will you only acknowledge him when you pa.s.s? Are you satisfied now that you're going to die?! Obviously you knew that he was the first Planeswalker to ever step in here in hundreds of years, and he would likely be the last as well. So why must you do such a meaningless act? You r.e.t.a.r.d! Idiot! Fool!" She crumbled onto Pendulum Golem's body and cried out loud.
"Precisely... because...he is the final one, we have to... take extra measures. Master is long gone... So why... should I feel... anything for... this world?" His voice was cracking from the wreck of a body he had left, "Ina... you didn't know... just how much I wished... that I was a Planeswalker as well..."
Brendel was silent by their side the entire time, with his summons lined up behind him. Even if he was victorious, it left a bad taste in his mouth and he was not in the slightest delighted about it. The victory was a fluke, an unexpected outcome that he did not see coming from the beginning.
Instead of calling it a victory, it seemed to be closer related to a loss.
The Golem, however, did not care about the outcome. It looked at Brendel, its face back to the emotionless one it always wore.
"Boy...I can't trust you. You have no idea... what a true Planeswalker is like... but I do wish... you don't disappoint my hopes..."
It shook its head and sigh, the voice trailing off in the wide emptiness. An unknown period of time had pa.s.sed, and she finally began to collect her emotions. She thought for a while before turning to look at Brendel, the frivolous and cheerful lady gone.
"You must want to know what is actually going on, do you?" Ina said.
