This Holy Knight is So Despicable!
Chapter 247 - 231 The Enigmatic Dragon Princess

Chapter 247: Chapter 231 The Enigmatic Dragon Princess

Upon hearing Unica’s words, Lette’s eyes immediately sharpened.

One of the Three Great Sages of the Tower of Truth, the Wise Sage, was actually one of the witches?

Cinderella Joanna for dealing with the Holy Light God Church, Princess Snow White Scarlett for the Dark Race, Sea Witch Unica for the Sea Clan, and Alice for dominating the Dream Realm.

And Emily, seemingly corresponding to Beauty and the Beast, to deal with the Elf Clan.

Back then, Scarlett had mentioned that five of the seven witches of the Tower of Truth had already appeared.

And this Wise Sage Meir before him, could she be one of the remaining two witches?

No, this doesn’t make sense!

The Wise Sage was a very old, top-tier member of the Tower of Truth, even appearing earlier than the Wisdom of Reason.

The witch plan clearly started being implemented later in the middle and final stages of the Tower of Truth.

Meir couldn’t possibly be one of the seven witches.

Either this woman claiming to be the Wise Sage is an imposter.

Or, the witch’s plan actually has other hidden truths.

Lette leans more towards the first possibility, after all, according to the Church Court’s records, the Three Great Sages are all pure humans.

And this half-dragon girl in front of him, at least half of her bloodline is of pure Dragon Clan.

This doesn’t make any sense.

But if, if this woman really is the Wise Sage.

Then, many things become explainable.

For example, how could a fallen Sea God possibly possess a magic tool capable of blowing up the World Valve?

And, who could be so clear about the location of the alchemy workshop under Harbor City and the hidden legacy of the Tower of Truth?

And who provided the technology at the Truth Workshop to remove Unica’s witch power and inject it into Gretel.

Most importantly, the half-dead Wisdom of Reason can’t possibly have the energy to build the Truth Remnants into something so powerful.

There are too many mysteries to unravel, but this half-dragon girl in front of him is definitely not easy to deal with.

"Wise Sage Meir, what a big name."

Lette instinctively opened his hand, but remembered that his Sin Light was still lodged in the World Valve’s hole, so he had to form a Holy Light Sword.

And with his other hand, he summoned his Holy Shield·Embrace of the Goddess.

"Does Lord Lette really want to oppose me?"

The half-dragon girl’s tail curved to support her on the ground, and she sat down accordingly, crossing her legs.

A pair of vertically slit pupils, unique to the Dragon Clan, constantly sized up Lette.

"Truly a rich and powerful soul you have, no wonder you’ve gathered so many witches around you.

You’re practically a walking witch magnet."

"I think you’re mistaken, I’m so attractive because of my handsome looks and elegant demeanor."

Lette pointed the light sword in his hand directly at her, "Stop beating around the bush, why did you kill these dragons?

Where is the Final Dragon?

You blew up the World Valve, released the Liar Demon, and triggered the Dragon Clan’s world destruction plan.

You really have a deep-seated hatred for the world that birthed and nurtured you."

The Wise Sage smiled gracefully, "I don’t have such a big grudge against this world. These things, I merely helped along.

Even without me, these events would have happened, just not as quickly.

Why blow up the Eye of the sea? Of course, to quickly trigger the Dragon Clan’s world destruction switch.

Why kill these dragons? Surely, to make this single Final Dragon’s power strong enough.

As for my real goal... hehe, it’s not time to tell you yet.

Mr. Wright, the fact that you managed to subdue the Liar Demon and enter Dragon Island has really surprised me.

However, I advise you to leave certain matters as they are.

If you dive too deep, it won’t be good for you or those around you."

"Brother!"

Suddenly, Alice’s voice rang in Lette’s ears; at this moment, she was communicating with Lette through the scarecrow in the farmyard within the Gap of Dreams.

Ever since Unica mentioned the other being one of the witches, Lette had tried to have the Liar Demon notify Alice, asking her to use the powers of Fairy Town to sever the witch’s magic.

This method had already proven effective in the battle with the Sea God underwater. Now replicating it, it should be able to subdue this half-dragon girl as well.

As long as the troublesome witch power is gone, a mere half-dragon, even if at the Divine level strength, is nothing to worry about.

"I’ve already used the power of Fairy Town, but haven’t sensed any witch power fluctuations.

Brother, are you sure the other is really a witch?

If so, I think her story might not have been recorded."

Lette directly rejected this speculation: "Impossible, the source of witch power is widely spread tales.

If her story is niche or unheard of, then she couldn’t possibly possess power."

"Well, I will continue to search."

"It seems that the result you obtained by stalling for time is not ideal."

The Wise Sage’s dragon tail suddenly swung, and she lunged at Lette like a spring.

"Old Pi, take them away!"

Lette advanced instead of retreating, charging savagely towards her with his shield raised.

They collided with each other, and the half-dragon girl was slapped away by a black shield as large as a door. But she flapped her wings, returning from the air and kicking down on the Holy Shield.

This strike was powerful enough that Lette staggered backward, only stopping his decline by slamming the shield into the ground.

"As expected of the Dragon Clan, their strength is unquestionable. Taking my hit like it’s nothing, yet capable of immediate counterattack."

Lette shook his shoulders, his fighting spirit soaring. He was surging with Holy Light Fighting Spirit all over, then ascending to Holy Radiance Fighting Spirit.

The Wise Sage waved her thick dragon tail, showing no panic facing Lette.

"It seems your Holy Artifact is unavailable, meaning that in your current state, you can only achieve the pinnacle of a Legendary Strongman.

Of course, Lord Holy Sin’s combat strength cannot be underestimated in such simple terms.

After all, you are still a genuine Conceptual-level strongman."

It was no surprise that a sage from the Tower of Truth knew about Conceptual-level information, but the fact that the other specifically mentioned this gave Lette a bad feeling.

The nearby Liar Demon was also shocked in his heart; he pointed his hand towards the Dragon Girl.

"The fact that your back wasn’t pierced is a lie."

Buzz!

Just before the Liar Demon’s ability took effect, strange fluctuations surged from the Wise Sage, directly nullifying the Liar Demon’s power.

With a bang, Pinocchio’s arm exploded due to the backlash, and the whole puppet flew backward, landing heavily on the ground.

"Boss! Be careful, this crazy woman has stolen the powers of the four Great Disaster Beasts under the Final Dragon’s command!"
