Lucius watched in surprise as he saw what had just happened.
The Bishop, who boasted so much about being invincible, just fell to the ground and died—no, more accurately, he died before falling.
But… how?
'His Soul was extinguished in an instant…' Lucius' thoughts trailed as he narrowed his eyes in observation.
The only reason he could observe this was because of his special position as the Lord of the Dead. He could sense Souls—whether belonging living or dead—though such Souls only became much clearer to him if the body had died.
The Bishop had a Soul right as he was boasting, but the moment he took a few steps forward, it felt as though his Soul exploded within his body—leading to instant death.
This time, its effect was not reversed.
He was truly dead.
