After Maxing out all Classes

Chapter 39: I defeated myself

The most important thing about lying is knowing when youve said enough. Robb stopped talking and let the others guess the rest. Robbs knows this full well, and the script he arranged for Xuelu is about to commence.

Sure enough, when Xuelu said it, she immediately shut up and put on a now you understand expression.

The Baron understood. He first cried "Ah!" and then said, "I see. So the priest got angry when he saw that the ogre smashed his chapel, and anger is the source of strength for berserkers so the cursed ruby activated, and the sealed soul of Dora Dream was released and attached to the priest. Then, Dora Dream temporarily controlled the priest's body and used his earth-shaking, powerful swordsmanship."

You are truly wise! Xuelu sighed, I think thats about correct.

Little Yi also understood and couldnt help but sigh, Ah, no wonder I can feel tremendous power from this ruby. It houses the power of an ancient hero. It is truly commendable.

So what I found was such a powerful thing? Robb pretended to be ignorant, Wow, then I will be invincible. As long as I am angry, I can call him out with this ruby. I dont have to be afraid of monsters in the future.

Its not that easy. Xuelu said with a smile, "There are side effects to this; otherwise, it wouldn't have been called a 'Cursed Ruby.' This kind of gem calls forth the power of heroes, which is usually beyond the normal capacity of a human body. You'll feel exhausted after use, whether it's energy or physical strength. You will be as tired as a pile of mud in the next seven to 49 days."

Huh? Robb then said, Ah? No wonder I feel powerless, to the point that I dont have the energy to move in the bathtub. Oh, my God. I lost too much energy and physical strength. Aah! Noo, I dont want to be unable to move for 49 days. Im a very hard-working person. I cant be lazy. I want to get up and work. I love work.

Its not laziness. Its magic. And not only that, if you keep it with you, it will keep sucking out your energy and strength until you become mummified.

Ah? I dont want to die! Robb frowned In pain. He struggled to climb out of the bathtub, but in vain, "Damn this gem. It's absorbing my energy and strength. It's trying to kill me!"

Robb threw the ruby out of his hand.

The secret treasure fell to the ground and rolled.

The Baron cried, trying to reach out and pick it up from the ground, but Little Yi, next to him, suddenly pushed him away and said coldly, "Baron, didn't you hear the magician's explanation? You must not be attracted to the curse of this secret treasure; else, you'll get sucked and mummified."

"But but it contains the soul of Dora Dream, the ancestor of the berserkers. I I want his power. If I could get such a combo out as he did, I would be so happy that I could die."

"You have sinned greed!" Little Yi raised the stick in her hand and hit the Baron, "Wake up!"

The blow sobered the Baron up, clearing his mind in the process, Oh yes, greed is a great sin. It will kill me.

"We need to destroy it so as not to let it stay in this world to harm more people." Little Yi waved her staff and went to smash the ruby. A flash of red light appeared, followed by a dull sound. Little Yis staff was deflected, bounced, and fell ten yards away.

I dont have enough strength. Little Yi shouted, Baron, its up to you.

The Baron clenched his teeth but resolved himself and resolutely drew his big sword. His eyes turned red with blood. He raised his sword with both his hands, held his head high, and shouted, "Mountain! Beheader!

The double-handed sword, fueled by the Barons anger, headed towards the cursed ruby. The fierce blade cut open the surface of the stone instantly. With a flash of red light, the magic in the gem surged out, carrying with it a strange sound. It was as if a voice could be heard laughing in its midst, "Hahahaha!

The voice flew higher and higher as if it had been a long time since its felt such a thing.

And finally, the red light dissipated. The red ruby became dim and looked like an ordinary stone by the roadside.

The Baron raised his hands and sword high, gesturing for victory. Tears fell from his eyes, roaring, "I did it. I didn't just cut a gem. I separated myself from greed and desire! I crossed the most difficult wall to penetrate for growth! I defeated myself!"

The "weak" Robb couldn't help but give the Baron a thumbs up, "You win! The rarest thing for human beings to do is to defeat their inner selves. You have done it. I do not doubt you will achieve greater achievements than your berserker ancestor 'Dora Dream'. Only by relying on yourself can you surpass him."

Ha, ha, ha! The Baron looked up at the sky and smiled fiercely. He picked up his big sword with both his hands and walked proudly to the camp on the hillside. Everything he experienced today will become a precious experience in his life that enabled him to continue forward.

Little Yi went closer to Robb, silently picked up her stick, and told Robb, "Don't you have no energy and strength? Let me help you back to your room."

How can I? Robb said, Im naked. Youre a girl, so its not appropriate.

Little Yi shook her head, "When I am saving lives, I am no longer a woman but a messenger of God. Whether you are dressed or not makes no difference to me. You are just a weak patient now."

Hm, its still not fine. Robb said, If I rest a little longer, I should be able to go back.

Xuelu stood nearby and said, "Sister, you can leave first. I'll help Mr. Robb back to his room. I brought the ogre here, so I'll take responsibility."

Little Yi thought about it carefully. After all, she was still too embarrassed to see a naked man's body. Since miss magician is willing to help, that should be fine.

Then Ill go to bed. Good night. She said coldly.
