This Holy Knight is So Despicable!
Chapter 217 - 207: The Beastly Detective Emily

Chapter 217: Chapter 207: The Beastly Detective Emily

Emily felt a bit nervous as everyone looked at her.

Joanna gently placed her hand on Emily’s head and said, "Don’t be afraid, we’re all here."

"Okay!"

Emily took a deep breath and reached her hand towards the thick mist.

Joanna intended to bless her with Holy Light Guardian, but Lilith stopped her.

Since they placed their hopes on her intuition, they needed to minimize external influences as much as possible.

When Emily’s hand entered the mist, nothing happened, causing everyone to breathe a sigh of relief.

After a while, Emily even inserted her entire arm into the mist, startling Lilith and Joanna as they hurriedly pulled her back.

Lilith, irritated, lightly knocked on Emily’s forehead, "Are you crazy! Can’t you be more cautious?"

Joanna lifted Emily’s arm and examined it carefully, using Holy Light Healing several times.

"Are you okay? Do you feel anything uncomfortable?"

Emily rubbed her forehead, "No, after touching the mist, I found nothing wrong, so I reached further in.

I wanted to see if I could find Lette.

Unfortunately, there was nothing.

As Sister Joanna said, this mist feels like the unknown to me!

Everything is unknown; it’s just fog, everything is concealed.

When my hand went in, I couldn’t feel my hand anymore. However, I could feel my fingers from my fingers."

Unica waved repeatedly, "No, no, if you can’t feel your hand, how do you use your fingers to feel your other fingers?"

Emily tilted her head, "I don’t know how to describe it, but that’s exactly how it feels.

It was just because I found it strange that I inserted my entire arm in."

The Liar Demon suddenly spoke, "Could it be that your awareness of the body part within the mist has turned into the unknown?

But parts within the mist can still perceive each other."

"That’s probably what it means. But I truly didn’t feel any malice from this mist.

Of course, there’s no benevolence either; it’s just pure... mist."

Hearing Emily’s words, everyone fell silent. Joanna suddenly lifted her leg and headed towards the mist.

Lilith was stunned and didn’t react in time; Joanna had already stepped into it.

However, a Holy Light descended from above once more, and Joanna walked into the room with a peculiar expression.

Lilith stared at her in a daze, "What’s going on? What did you just do?"

"My divine body just lost its sensation and dispersed."

"Of course, your main body is in the Divine Realm, and when a duplicate enters the unknown, naturally it loses contact with the main body.

Let me go instead!"

Everyone hurriedly stopped her, and Emily clung tightly to Lilith.

"You can’t go, if you leave, we’ll be even more lost."

"I can’t rest easy about him!"

"Wait, I haven’t finished talking yet."

Emily stood before the mist, "I think this mist is connected to that fishing village and the sea."

"Tell us more..."

"Isn’t the unknown the initial human impression of the sea? The so-called fear, reverence, and exploration...

These impressions, feelings, and desires all stem from the unknown.

So, the [sea] worshipped by that small fishing village is actually based on the [unknown].

Lette successfully resolved the village’s issues, and perhaps thus established some kind of connection with the [sea] and the [unknown].

And tonight, he accidentally fulfilled some triggering condition, ultimately causing this mysterious phenomenon."

After hearing this, Joanna looked at Lilith, "Could this child... possibly be a genius?"

Lilith agreed deeply, "Her intuition has always been reliable. It was her intuition that saved your life back then."

"So that’s how it is!"

Joanna gently embraced Emily, "Thank you, Emily. I never got the chance to properly repay you."

"No, it’s alright!"

"If it’s about the mist..."

Alice suddenly looked at the wooden puppet Pinocchio, "I remember my brother telling me, the mist in the fishing village has the ability to blur the boundaries between dreams and reality."

"That’s not the power of the mist, it’s the power of my lies. The mist is merely the medium for the lies, because this mist contains a special power."

The Liar Demon smacked his forehead, "Right! We can use the old trick! Once the boundary between dream and reality blurs, Alice can use her Witch Power.

In the dream realm, her power is absolutely formidable."

Lilith was still uneasy, "But this mist can’t be shaken even by the conceptual level..."

"At this point, we have no choice but to try."

The Liar went forward immediately, directing his hands at the mist.

The dense Power of Lies infiltrated it, and unlike Desecration, Strong Desire and Law, it didn’t vanish, but tangled and intertwined with the mist.

The lies were like smoke, the mist like fog, and the two combined into a new shape resembling smoke and mist.

Lilith was quite surprised, "It seems the compatibility between [unknown] and [lies] is quite high!"

The puppet cracked with a creaking noise, "You all need to hurry, I can’t hold on for much longer. My powers are limited after Lette sealed me."

Alice disregarded everything else, lay directly on the ground, and fell into a dream.

Harnessing the power of the Dream Witch, she followed the beacon given by the Liar Demon and charged boldly into the mist mixed with lies.

Hiss~ Hiss~

When Alice regained her senses, she found herself standing on a deserted grey-black beach, with the waves rolling back and forth in front of her.
