“It’s the least I can do.” The priest lowered his head.
“I meant my words and I’ll keep them,” Angor said as he put on a serious look. “Anything you want to be done, you can ask me for it, as long as it’s within my power.”
The old priest remained silent for a long time to go over his thoughts.
“For a thousand years… I’m so sorry for the terrible ending that awaits my brothers. I… do not know if this can be done, but I don’t have any other options now.”
“You mean…?” Angor looked at the old man, who slowly knelt down and put his head on the table.
“I hope you can save my kins, young mister.”
Even though Angor somewhat expected such a request, he didn’t know how to respond to it.
Upon approaching, the priest quickly noticed that Angor and Shadow had been sitting not far from Fiona.
“There’s an illusion that prevents them from seeing us,” Angor explained. “So, where can I find the treasure that purifies souls?”
The old man lifted a hand, and a lump of white mist emerged from his palm. It then slowly turned into an object. The priest then tossed the object into the air; it slowly grew larger until it was handy for human hands.
“It can change its size?” Angor gazed at the item in wonder. “It’s at least a tiered alchemy item.”
The initial appearance of the object was a black dish made from an unknown material. Angor couldn’t see anything particular on the surface of it. It seemed like a layer of paint or something had covered the object.
When Angor tried to reach for it, the priest suddenly warned, “The queen has left her mark on the treasure. Anyone other than me who connects with it will alert the queen.”
By “queen”, the priest referred to Isabelle’s disciple, Isabella; the current leader of Dark Castle.
Isabella was obsessed with following her teacher’s example, which could be seen from her name and her title, “Sundown Queen”. Angor decided to heed the warning. He clearly knew about Isabella’s mad character. Anything might happen if she noticed his careless attempts.
He had to use his eyes.
There were no obvious runes on the surface which meant possible Synthesis works, and Angor couldn’t tell its material, so he failed to find any information he could use.
However, he sensed some weak energy ripples from the item. Familiar ripples. It felt similar to the Mystery energy he wielded not long ago.
Shadow was also inspecting the item curiously. “It should be. I felt it too.”
“Yup. But the energy isn’t strong. The priest said there’s another half of it. That will probably make it ‘real’.”
Even though the current half of the object held a similar amount of Mystery energy as the silver revolver, it was already powerful enough to purify souls. Angor wondered what kind of property was hidden inside his revolver.
