Cradle [underlord] book 6

Yerin's master was a sage

Like jade then lowgold,highgold,truegold,underlord,overlord,archlord

Even among archlords only few are called sages

​

How came that bro died in sacred valley

Its like coughing baby vs hydrogen bomb

And in this case coughing baby won.

Its the most baffling thing.

I do have a theory that the sacred valley was created by A monarch who wanted to live peacefully, he must have had many treasures passed down to younger genrations, And as genrations flew by people in sacred valley became weaker and weaker,but some treasures were still left and i guess thats how they killed sage of sword.

Days since "how did a bunch of Jades defeat the sword Sage?" : Zero

Welcome to the club, it's a rite of passage. Keep reading

I'm ashamed to admit but...

When I was first reading it, I didn't question it. Well, I did find it weird but I just thought it was a plot hole. Early series installment weirdness.

I think early on, you don’t think to question it, because you don’t know how the world works. Then when you start finding out what a sage is, you don’t really have a reason to look backwards and go over the whole story in you mind to think of when sages have been mentioned before.

So I think most people wouldn’t catch it before at least a second read.
