The Gentleman at the End

Chapter 456: Chapter 454: The Gift

[Memory Palace]

The aquarium, which had just been repaired not long ago, was once again suffering from a severe leak.

But this time, the leak wasn’t caused by the death immersion of the Original Tomb, but rather because William, the main host, had sustained critical injuries and was on the brink of death.

Impaled on the Spiral Giant Sword, this direct threat of death forcibly sucked William’s consciousness into the depths, coming face to face with another original entity within his body.

The symbolic library of the Memory Palace was filled with the scent of sebaceous black flames burning flesh. Even the walls seemed to leak black gas, as if the fire might spread here at any moment.

William had passed through seven dark doors of the library and was standing in the corridors of the aquarium. The surface of the water tanks was riddled with holes, and large amounts of liquid were seeping out.

The exchange that was about to take place was actually a kind of “Split Thought Activity” and did not fall within the scope of time.

Even so, ‘Yi Chen’ was still confined within it, incapable of escaping on his own unless the glass shattered completely.

Yi Chen, with half of his head exposed, stretched out a tongue to lick the shattered glass surface. Unconcerned even as his tongue was cut, he licked and spoke:

“Quite dangerous, this Skin Bag Apostle is very powerful! The Black Flames, fuelled by the burning of his sebaceous oil, must be an advanced illness realized during his travels, capable of completely crushing you by rank.

Surely you’ll die if this continues.

Switch with me, William! If it were me, perhaps we could fight to a mutual defeat, and in the end, little Grape could escape with our body.”

However, William’s expression was stern, with no intention of switching, “No… I’m just here to borrow something. Give me the face, quickly.”

“Are you really not considering it, William? This is a powerful entity capable of breakthroughs in the path. Are you really up to it now? You haven’t even practiced with the new weapon, you must be very unaccustomed to it.”
