At the city gates of Twilight City,
Julian was being subjected to a brutal execution. Large iron nails were driven through his limbs, head, mouth, and chest, pinning him firmly to the city wall.
The number of onlookers continued to grow, many of them recognizing this prodigy from House Silverlight.
After all, House Silverlight was a renowned alchemy family with immense influence, and its potions were coveted even by imperial nobles.
Yet such a genius from such a prestigious family was openly executed.
To openly defy House Silverlight's authority with such boldness could only be accomplished by a power that controlled a 200,000-strong High God army.
"This is tragic!"
"Tragic? I think it's a great relief!"
"Exactly, he caused so many families to be destroyed. This is the least he deserves for his past deeds!"
Many in the crowd watched with satisfaction.
"Hahaha… Good riddance, no one can save him now."
