With the passage of the sword of Saint and Watson decades ago, the seal on the Tower of Babel had been lifted, and it had finally returned to its original appearance. The souls of the gods roamed in it, and they would choose the fated person to leave their inheritance. As long as one entered, they would receive the blessings of the gods.

Perhaps it was out of her pride, or perhaps she felt the pressure from Watson. In short, those who had seen Watson’s terrifying power could understand the decision that she had made at that moment.

“Lady Swordmistress, if you insist on leaving the City of Steel for the Royal City, I will go with you.”

Claude suddenly stood. His face was bruised and swollen, but it was filled with determination.

“Claude, I hope that you will stay here. It is not just my personal request, but also my order as the leader! I am really happy to be in this adventurer team with everyone and have gotten along with everyone for so many years. I don’t want this adventurer team to fall apart because of me. The only person who is qualified to be their leader is you, Claude. I know my request is very selfish, but I still hope that you can accept it.”

Christina was still trying to comfort Claude. Her sincere words made him bite his lips, and his eyes were wet with tears.

Claude knew that he was not a good person; he was originally a thug in the city. Due to his lack of strength and bad character, he did not do well in the City of Steel, and very few adventurers were willing to hire him.

Everything had changed with Christina’s arrival.

He still remembered the first time he met Christina. He was trying to trick a group of new adventurers into paying protection fees. At that time, Christina said to him, “Don’t you think it’s a pity to have such a talent but do such a shady job? Follow me. I’m going to build an adventurer team in this city to clear the dungeon that no one has cleared in decades. And now, I lack an assistant.”

It was Christina who had given him glory and status. Every time Claude saw the respectful gazes of the people around him, he felt the same way. Christina was her light, his goddess. For the sake of Christina, he would not care even if his hands were stained with blood and he fell into hell. However, now that Christina was going to leave, he did not know if he would have the chance to see her again in the future; the love buried deep in his heart would probably stay there forever.

“Lady Swordmistress, there is another person who is qualified to be the captain other than me. That person is the captain of the guards, Blake. That d*mned b*stard! After deceiving me, I don’t know where he has run off to! Lady Swordmistress is leaving, and yet he is not here?”

At the mention of Blake, Claude felt a faint pain on his face, and his tone became fierce.

If Blake had given him all the information, he would not have been beaten so badly. No matter what kind of mood Blake had played him in, he would beat him up when he came back to vent his anger.

“Claude, have you sent people to find Blake?”

“Yes, he disappeared when you led our people into the underground maze city. I have sent people to the restaurants and taverns to look for him for a long time, but they haven’t found him! Maybe he is hiding with his mistress, which is why we can’t find him. Let’s hope he dies in the belly of a woman as soon as possible.”

Christina only shook her head after hearing Claude’s vicious curse. A hint of melancholy appeared on her face. “If only it were as you said.”

....

In the City of Steel, in a place called the Clear Spring Shop.

The Clear Spring Shop was a small shop in the City of Steel. The main business of the shop was the sale of medicinal herbs and potions. Since most of the people in the City of Steel were adventurers, and the owner had a brilliant way of making potions. As a result, that small shop had always been doing well. However, the door of the shop that was usually full of people was closed today.
