Chapter 2565
James listened attentively to Nova.
Sophie had told him a little bit about the events that took place in the Primeval Age.
Thus, he knew that the powerhouse that wiped out an entire world with a single sword strike was the same
swordmaster that created the supreme sword technique.
The sword technique he learned was from this very swordmaster.
However, what he had mastered was only just the basics of his fearsome technique.
After giving it some consideration, James asked, "Then will I die if I continue to stay here?"
Nova replied, "If all the men before you succumbed to unexplainable deaths from the curse, then I'd advise you to

leave as soon as possible. You might also die because of the curse. This isn't some childish prank, and this world
isn't as simple as you think it is."
Nova also urged James to leave because the threat the Curse Magic posed was immense.
If a complete version of Curse Magic formed the seal on this planet, then even a Grand Emperor who came to this
country would be cursed and end up dead, let alone someone like James.
Listening to Nova’s warning, James became slightly nervous.
He had already been in Sangria’s territory for about 20 days. According to the previous cases, the curse will befall
men that have been in the country for nearly 30 days.
Unfortunately, Sangria's lands were extremely vast, and it would take him nearly ten days to completely leave the
country.
James murmured, "If that's the case, I'd better leave as soon as possible,"

Initially, he did not believe in the curse. However, Nova's words convinced him to be safe rather than sorry.
Before James left the country, he wanted to bid farewell to the Empress and check up on Henrik and Qusai's
whereabouts.
He left the courtyard and walked toward the place where the Empress usually worked.
Empress Xianna’s work area was named Summer Palace.
As soon as James arrived at Summer Palace’s entrance, he heard a voice coming from within Xianna’s office hall.
"Your Majesty, we're left with only two options. We either surrender to Korinth or unite with Wushua through a
political marriage. Our only hope to save Sangria hinges on your marriage to Wushua's Emperor."
'You don't need to try and persuade me. I'll never concede to either option."

"Please think twice, Your Majesty. You can’t sacrifice the whole country because of your own whimsy."
A few important officials attempted to convince the Empress.
The Empress was distraught about the matter.
Knock, knock, knock!
James knocked on the door.
Soon, a court lady walked out to open the door. Seeing that it was James, she greeted him respectfully, "Mr.
Caden."
James said, "I’d like to see the Empress."
"My apologies, Mr. Caden. The Empress is discussing important national affairs right now. Please wait outside for a
moment."
James was not in a rush and waited outside the office hall.
He waited for more than an hour until the officials finally began to trickle out of the hall. Then, a court lady brought
James in to meet the Empress.
A woman in a blue dress sat at the highest seat. When he walked in, she was rubbing her temples pensively.
