Chapter 207 The Pursuit of the Oath of Truth?

Just as everyone was talking, Wayne's expression suddenly changed, and he looked towards the corner of the room.

Mentor Morse and Wizard Bolton also showed unusual expressions, and now they followed Wayne's gaze.

Inside the room, in a shadowy corner, the shadow suddenly seemed to come alive, and a twisted human figure emerged.

This humanoid figure has a peculiar appearance and shape, and it looks like it is carrying a huge cross on its back.

His figure was hunched and thin.

And he was carrying a curved knife formed by shadows.

Emerging from the shadowy corner, two crimson dots appeared in the pupils of the humanoid shadow, staring intently at Wayne.

Now, it exudes a cold, ghostly aura, and its entire body is constantly making creaking sounds.

Upon seeing the figure, Wizard Bolton was startled and jumped up from his chair, his expression wary as if facing a formidable enemy. "The Shadow Orb? Those guys are coming again?!" he exclaimed, about to draw his alchemical longsword to attack.

"No, not those guys from the Shadow Orbs!"

At this moment, Morse, the tutor standing nearby, stopped the wizard Bolton and reminded him not to be nervous, and then said.

And his eyes were fixed on the shadow in the corner ahead.

"Shadows... darkness... a scimitar, and a massive cross on its back... is this the vengeful power of the Oath of Truth?!"

"Is there any among us who swore an oath to the truth and has yet to keep that oath?"

"Master Morse asked."

Upon hearing Morse's words, Wayne's expression shifted slightly.

An oath of truth?

Wayne immediately recalled the incident of the drought and plague in Victoria Territory, back in Holman's family.

At that time, they were collecting the belongings of the third-class wizard apprentice named von Herwin.

He once swore an oath to the truth with him, and swore an oath to the truth with his true name.

So, immediately.

Wayne coughed and told his mentor, Morse, about his past experiences in the Victorian territory.

However, Wayne did not choose to reveal the specifics.

Instead, it omits the beginning and end, skipping over the specific process.

It's just that I accidentally found some items back then, and that guy made me swear an oath to the truth.

Only then would they be willing to remove the spiritual imprint placed on the item.

Otherwise, if the original wizard's spiritual imprint is added to it, even if the person who finds it later wants to use it, they will not be able to.

Now, after hearing Wayne's account of the events, Mentor Morse frowned slightly and asked.

"Have you failed to fulfill the corresponding vows?"

Wayne nodded slightly in agreement.

"Yes."

Back then, the guy von Herwin made himself swear an oath to the Oath of Truth, which was to bring his wizard's journal to the Matrix Heart Wizarding Academy.

However, after returning to the Wizarding Academy in the Black Forest City, he was busy meditating, improving his mental strength, and striving to become a formal wizard.

Furthermore, after finally reaching the level of a formal wizard, he was immediately attacked by the Shadow Orb Black Wizard Organization.

So I haven't had time to finish this task.

"Mentor Morse, what are the specific consequences if the oath is not fulfilled?"

Wayne asked.

Before Morse could reply, suddenly, a dark shadowy figure in the corner appeared—a humanoid creature.

He had already taken a step forward and was attacking Wayne.

However, the opponent's attack was slow and unsteady, with a shadowy scimitar raised high in his hand.

Before it even got close, Mentor Morse had already conjured a spell in his palm.

Then, with a loud thud, it slammed into the chest of the black shadow.

It let out a piercing scream and vanished into nothingness.

However, just before it dissipated, a ferocious and resentful voice echoed from within the slowly fading black shadows.

"Shame! Those who defy the truth, those who lack integrity... will forever be condemned by the truth... without end!"

"After we've dealt with this black figure," said Instructor Morse.

"It's like this: if you don't fulfill the oath, you will be relentlessly pursued by the Oath of Truth, endlessly."

"A dark, shadowy figure, like one carrying a huge cross, will emerge from the shadows."

"Furthermore, what has been achieved so far is only the most basic level of pursuit."

"As the number of pursuits increases, the strength of this dark figure will continue to grow, becoming increasingly powerful."

"At the same time, the attacks will become more and more frequent, and their strength may even increase to the level of a formal wizard..."

...It's not impossible!

"Mentor Morse said."

"In the beginning, when the Oath of Truth first appeared, many people didn't take it seriously. They made promises casually but didn't take them seriously and refused to fulfill them."

"As a result, all those who refused to keep their oath of truth paid a heavy price."

"Many people suffer the backlash and curse of the Oath of Truth, and their magical abilities are stuck at this point for life, unable to progress."

Now, upon hearing Morse's reply, Wayne frowned slightly, gazing at the corner where the eerie black figure had just appeared in the dark passage.

I don't know how this black figure appeared, and how it knew my location.

The attack came precisely.

Although it has now dissipated and ceased to exist after being attacked by Mentor Morse.

However, just now it emerged from the shadows, its appearance ferocious and terrifying.

The actions and postures during the attack were chilling.

Furthermore, according to the wizard Morse, the attacks and pursuit from the other side are endless.

It will never stop.

Doesn't that mean that from now on, even when I'm resting, I won't have peace and quiet, and I'll have to be constantly on guard against the other person's appearance? Never a peaceful day?

Moreover, the other party's appearance was completely undetected.

They clearly had soundproofing installed in the room.

However, the other party was able to accurately locate me and then pursue me. I really don't know how this so-called "oath of truth" was accomplished!

A hint of surprise flashed in Wayne's eyes.

At that moment, Morse gave Wayne a deep look.

Clearly, it concerns his oath to the truth.

And previously, when we went to Brother Holman's old camp in Victoria to deal with the drought and plague incident.

The student had no idea what equipment or items he had obtained, or what events he had experienced; the student had never told him any of this.
