Chapter 54: Mastermind

Immediately, all the blades that were all around the fields vanished, re-entering my treasury. They glowed purple as they entered into purple sub-portals and disappeared.

Everyone's eyes were on me at the moment, most of them had looks of confusion, some fear. However, the only expression that really caught my attention was that of the apostle.

"Wha-What is that?!" She muttered to herself.

"There's no essence. No element which exists in all things that exist. Is this real?" She asked.

Oh? She must be talking about Aspects. Of course, someone of her level wouldn't know about Aspects, however, she must be able to perceive them as forms of essence that flow through everything. That's how they're able to disrupt Hex, the gods sure gave them some nice perks.
