This Holy Knight is So Despicable!
Chapter 85: The Blood Witch’s Warning

Chapter 85: Chapter 85: The Blood Witch’s Warning

Just after a fierce battle, Lette couldn’t rest and leapt to the end of the street, finding Adros waiting for him.

"Boss!"

"What’s going on, why did you come here alone? And so close to the Pope Palace?"

Adros looked a bit worried, "Boss, the situation is urgent, I had to come see you in person.

We just captured two high-ranking members of the Blood Witch camp.

They specifically asked to have a detailed conversation with you."

"A conversation with me? These people usually hide better than rats, how did two of them suddenly pop up?

Ah!"

Lette slapped his forehead, first being lured out of the city by the remnants of the Tower of Truth, then battling to the death with Vanessa in front of the Pope Palace.

For other unstable factors, this was simply a godsend opportunity to take action.

But instead of causing destruction, these guys came to find Adros to seek a discussion with him.

Is it really something important?

"Let’s go! I’ll go with you to see!"

"Boss, don’t you need a rest?"

"No need, let’s go."

Lette glanced back, seeing that his teacher had already returned to the Pope Palace, probably holding the dragon egg to consult with the Pope on how to handle the aftermath.

He followed Adros through several twists and turns, quickly arriving at a civilian residential area.

Though called civilians, living here was far better than those in Holy Work Town.

"Adros, you’ve worked hard these days."

"You’re too kind, Boss. We’ve been in the shadows, and we see your toil more clearly. Compared to you, we aren’t working hard."

Lette patted his shoulder, "No need for modesty, I know you guys are doing a great job.

With you holding back the Dark Race, I can focus on dealing with other safety threats."

As Adros walked, he suddenly spoke again, "Boss, how do you plan to deal with the upcoming envoy?"

"Envoy? The most threatening one has already been dealt with, the rest..."

Lette suddenly realized something, "You mean the Alien Tribe Mission."

"Yes!"

The mission refers to the envoy groups sent by various Holy Countries. Although called missions, the emphasis is on the word alien.

Like the Elf Clan, Dwarf Clan, Mermaid Clan, Beastman Clan...

Although it’s unknown why the barbarians from the cold Northern Realm are also classified as part of the Alien Tribe Mission.

And these people are quite troublesome.

They are not human, nor do they worship the Holy Light Goddess.

Elves believe in the Life Goddess, the Dwarf Clan believes in the God of Iron and Forging, the Mermaid Clan believes in the Sea God, and the Beastman Clan’s beliefs are chaotic and unheard of, all kinds of Beast Gods.

The barbarians are more direct, they don’t believe in the divine, they worship the three barbarian ancestral souls at the Ancestor Mountain Peak.

Although every Holy Presence Day, the Holy Light Church invites them. But honestly, no one in the Church Court ever hopes for their presence.

However, due to some matters of etiquette and propriety, the Holy Light Goddess insists the church must invite these guys and treat them as VIPs.

Three years ago, during the previous ceremony, Lette argued with the white robed about this matter, even got into a heated argument with the Goddess herself.

Even when there was nothing happening in past years, these aliens already caused enough problems.

This year, with the Holy Light Church in turmoil, they’re likely to be quite amused. They might even secretly add fuel to the fire.

Lette understood Adros’s concern, as he used to handle this work as the social star.

Now that he’s gone underground, he’s a bit uneasy about others handling it.

Lette patted Adros’s shoulder, "Rest assured, I’ll personally handle this work. I assure you, it’ll be managed clearly and thoroughly."

Upon hearing this, Adros nodded heavily, instantly realizing that worrying now was pointless.

"Boss, it’s here."

Adros led Lette through a tavern’s back door, then down a hidden staircase to the tavern’s basement.

"Why do you all like taverns so much?"

"Taverns are lively, with people coming and going, making them good places for exchanging information, offering good cover. Plus, storing goods and alcohol requires a warehouse and a cellar, making some activities more reasonable and less suspicious."

Lette nodded slightly, "How did those Blood Witch subordinates find you?"

"We subdued many of the original Blood Witch subordinates, but their higher-ups seem to have the ability to sense the location of their subordinates.

It wasn’t long before they found us.

But due to the threat of the Black Gold Sword, they didn’t dare to act rashly. They can only avoid contact with us to prevent more subordinates from defecting.

Today, for some reason, those two higher-ups suddenly came to find us...

Boss, we’re here!"

Lette entered the wine cellar and immediately saw two vampires tightly bound by chains.

The other numbered prisoners saw Lette and hurriedly bowed in respect.

Lette waved his hand and approached the two vampires with Adros.

"You better have a good reason, or you’ll find out just how much I want to kill Scarlett now."

"Lord Holy Sin, please calm down!"

One of the vampires quickly spoke, "We came today to explain this matter!

The one who attacked Lord Holy was indeed an elite under Miss Scarlett. But the assault on the Pope Palace was not under Miss Scarlett’s orders."

"Is this some kind of new tongue twister?"

The other vampire quickly added, "Lord Holy Sin! The one behind all this is the remnants of the truth!"

"Evidence!"

"We don’t have any, but... besides Miss Scarlett, only the remnants of the truth have the ability to control a vampire that has accepted Miss Scarlett’s Witch Blood!"

Lette fell silent at these words, pondering for a while before speaking again.

"Why didn’t you say this earlier? And why risk coming to tell me this now?"

"Because... because Miss said you might have found a way to unlock the Witch Seal.

So now, we must stop you!"

Lette raised an eyebrow; he did indeed gain some insight from the Legendary Mage. If he researched a bit and tested it on Emily,

it’s possible he could remove the seal.

But Scarlett shouldn’t know the extent of his understanding and was merely considering the worst-case scenario.

"And so?"

The vampire licked its lips, "You must not break Lord Holy Highness’s seal! If you do, you’ll play into the hands of the Tower of Truth and the Holy Light Church will be doomed!"

"Do you think I’ll believe you?"

"Witch!"

The other vampire hurriedly added, "The witch is a weapon developed by the Tower of Truth! Miss Scarlett is specifically designed to target the Dark Race!

So after she completed the Witch’s Feast, she could swiftly control the entire Dark Clan.

The behaviors before the witch matures are all disguised!

Lord Holy Highness is the witch among the seven specifically aimed against the Holy Light God Church!

Once her seal is broken and she awakens, her abilities will be unleashed, and the Holy Light Church will become a lamb for the slaughter!"
