Steampunk: Sixth Era Epic

Chapter 794: Chapter 794 Bone, Flesh, Soul

“Let’s go take a look as well.”

By the shore, Old Cleric suddenly whispered, and Sister Delphine hesitated for a moment, then nodded:

“Alright.”

“But how are we going to get over there?”

Iluna whispered. They couldn’t touch the water’s surface. The Old Cleric smiled and pointed to the side:

“With this.”

On the shallow beach, a rickety small wooden boat was stranded, as if it would sink the moment it touched water. It lay quietly in the shadow where the bonfire’s light couldn’t reach, seemingly having always been there.

But Iluna was very certain that before the battle between Shard and Joey Barton ended, this boat did not exist.

“What is this?”

She was very surprised and saw Old Cleric trying to push the boat into the water, so she reached out to help.

“The moon, defeated, death.”

The Cleric said laboriously while pushing the boat. Sister Delphine immediately pondered:

“Are you saying that in death, the moon directly defeated death?”

“Yes.”

The Cleric nodded, and together with Iluna, they pushed the boat silently into the water.

“Sorry, I still don’t understand what this means.”

Iluna whispered. The Cleric gestured for her to lift Joey Barton’s corpse onto the boat, then continued explaining:

“The divinities of thirteen Ancient Gods overlap.”

“Yes, I know this.”

“Most of the powers of death are controlled by the Ancient God of Death.”

“Yes.”

Iluna nodded again, dragging the corpse onto the boat. Old Cleric and Sister Delphine then got on in turn. Without any propulsion, the small boat wobbled through the dense white shadows, heading towards Shard in the distance.

The Cleric took a puff from his pipe, Sister Delphine sat quietly by the side, while Iluna held her dark golden balance at the bow of the boat, the radiant glimmer lighting their way.

“But the Ancient God of the Moon also holds part of the power of death, and this Nether Moon is evidence of that.”

Old Cleric continued, and after thinking for a moment, Iluna nodded again:

“So then?”
