This Holy Knight is So Despicable!
Chapter 257 - 241: I Want It All

Chapter 257: Chapter 241: I Want It All

Without saying a word, Lette plunged his sword into the reverse scale of the giant dragon, piercing her heart.

The Wise Sage spewed blood in large gulps, her eyes filled with disbelief.

"What are you staring at? I know this is my button, and I still remember my agreement with the Death God.

But you’re overthinking it.

The crimes you’ve committed, not even a hundred buttons can save your life!

Breaking the contract might as well mean bearing the curse of the Nether Sea, facing the Death God’s pursuit!

Even so, you must die!"

The Wise Sage’s eyes revealed panic for the first time! She spewed fresh blood in large gulps.

"Wait! Wait a second! Listen to me first! For the sake of the button! At least let me finish!"

"Tsk!"

Lette looked at her impatiently: "Earlier I spared your life, but you had to act up! Now, when it’s time to send you off, you hesitate!

For the button’s sake, spit it out! Speak quickly, don’t beat around the bush!"

"Ten days!"

The Wise Sage collapsed onto the ground: "I know this button can’t save my life, but I only need ten days!

After ten days, you can kill or slice as you please."

Lette squinted: "At a time like this, you’re still eyeing the power of the Final Dragon?

Let me tell you, even if you gained the power of the Final Dragon, you’re no match for me.

Your request is meaningless!

Besides, your offer isn’t enough."

"I’m willing to give all my knowledge! Everything I know!"

Leta disdainfully twirled the hilt of the Sin Light: "Killing you will give me all of that just the same!"

"Are you... sure of that?"

The Wise Sage endured the intense pain, still refusing to yield.

"Mr. Wright, you are indeed strong, but as the Wise Sage of the Tower of Truth, I’m no pushover.

I know that you have masters like The Liar Demon and Greedy Demon who toy with souls, and even the Dream Witch is under your command.

But I can confidently tell you, as long as I wish, in the moment of death, I can destroy my memory.

Even if it can’t be completely destroyed, there will be omissions.

Mr. Wright, if the missing part involves the Witch’s curse, wouldn’t it be a loss for you too?"

Lette gently tapped the hilt of the sword with his finger, unwilling to let the Wise Sage off so easily.

From a moral standpoint, or from personal emotions, he didn’t want to.

But what she said was indeed true.

Although he now had a method to suppress the Witch’s influence, he had only used it once, and it wasn’t completely successful.

The Witch Power had left Joanna’s body, but it didn’t dissolve; it merely sought a new host.

Moreover, with more Witches gathering around him, Lette became increasingly concerned.

If he could obtain firsthand information, thoroughly resolving the Witch’s curse would be a great boon.

Lette squinted, staring at the Wise Sage lying on the ground, barely hanging onto life.

"Why?"

"Ah?"

"Tell me the reason for all this, and I might consider it."

Meanwhile, a pure Holy Light flowed through the blade of the Sin Light Greatsword and into Mei’er’s body, temporarily stabilizing her heartbeat.

Mei’er couldn’t help but sigh.

"I might as well tell you... Actually, I’m not from this world."

"What?"

Lette’s hand trembled as he held the Sin Light Greatsword, nearly sending the Wise Sage away on the spot.

He quickly increased the Holy Light infusion, barely keeping her alive.

"Sorry, go on."

The Wise Sage trembled with pain, shakily speaking: "I know, it’s hard to understand.

But I did indeed flee to this world from another one.

Our original world was destroyed by the Final Dragon... no! By the Dragon Clan!

Completely obliterated.

My homeland, my family and friends, my world... turned to ash.

Those damned parasites! Disgusting leeches!

From birth, they’ve been sucking this world’s nutrients, constantly bringing tragedy and dirges!

Their existence is evil! Their life is a threat to this world!

My parents were great Mages of that world, and they participated in the crusade against the Dragon Clan.

We were about to win, but our world’s Dragon Island called for aid from the Dragon Realm through the World Void.

A large force of Eternal Dragon Clan reinforcements turned the tide of the battle.

My parents, at the cost of their lives, sent me to this world, gifting me their lifetime’s knowledge and Magic Power.

Initially, I planned to live well in this world.

But here, I found traces of the Dragon once more!

The same savage cruelty, the same arrogance! The same Dragon Island, the same conspiracy!

This reminded me of my innocent homeland...

They did nothing wrong, so why... why!"

The Wise Sage looked sinister, akin to an Evil Dragon.

"So I want revenge. I don’t just want to eradicate the Dragon Clan of this world! I want to raise my blade against the Eternal Dragon Clan!

But unfortunately, I’m too weak. I alone am too weak..."

Lette nodded thoughtfully: "So you created the Tower of Truth? You trained so many lunatics, forsaking humanity for power.

Including the later Witch plan, once successful, this world would become your munitions factory...

Your purpose is revenge."

"Yes, I want revenge! I want to let those damned Dragon Clan know! What they’ve done isn’t without cost!

Their rampant trampling on life, destroying others’ worlds!

And I will see to it that they shatter into pieces! Blood will flow like rivers! Completely exterminated from the entire grand world!"

Lette looked at the Wise Sage, after a long silence he slowly spoke.

"I want all your knowledge and memories."

"Agreed!"

Lette nodded slightly and tapped the sword hilt with one hand. A radiance of Holy Light blossomed at the giant dragon’s reverse scale.

"I’ve set a timed explosive array on your heart. After ten days, your heart will explode, and you will die.

If you attempt to break the Seal, it will activate immediately.

A word of advice, this Seal is sensitive; to avoid triggering it accidentally, you’d best not even try.

Furthermore, I will personally check, and if necessary, deliver the final blow."

"No problem..."

"During this time, you cannot leave Dragon Island."

"Alright!"

Lette spread his hands: "Then, start by giving me all relevant information about the Witch. This will be your advance payment.

In ten days, I will come for the rest."

The Wise Sage looked at Lette: "Aren’t you afraid I’ll summon an army from the Eternal Dragon Clan? Or devour the Final Dragon?"

Lette laughed heartily: "Someone capable of flipping the table won’t care about a few extra dishes on it.

Besides, you’re not even a dish, at most a pre-dinner dessert."
