“This is ‘The Book of the High Priest¹.”

Tracy Garcia gave its name but then reflected, “Strange, I seemed to have forgotten its content.”

Upon hearing this, Leonard Churchill didn’t think Tracy had poor memory, but was reminded of something instead.

Because he had the same experience.

When he read the High-level Demon Language on the copper scrolls, he indeed saw them. However, the moment he looked away, he couldn’t remember anything.

That suggested that the scroll was quite advanced.

Leonard chuckled, “Try to recall the conditions that enabled you to see it.”

“Oh.”

Tracy nodded, then remembered something, “But Mr. Leonard Churchill, your

Mental Power…”

Leonard Churchill was optimistic, “I should be fine for now. Let’s slowly find a solution.”

Tracy frowned slightly, not saying anything.

She had no solution either.

Her gaze landed once again on the scroll in her hands. She had the hunch that it must hold a solution.

She tried to place this odd large scroll into the Storage Space, but it couldn t be stored or placed inside.

She could only carry it on her back.

This signified that this item was rather unusual.

Tracy buried her face in the scroll.

Meanwhile, Leonard continued to inspect the ancient books.

Suddenly, he felt his forehead becoming damp.

Wiping it with his hand, he realized it was blood.

Looking at Tracy out of the corner of his eye, he seemed to think of something.

A hint of a smile gradually tugged at the corners of his lips.

Leonard had no pressing matters to attend to. With so many precious court secret texts on hand, he always felt short of time to go through them.

It was better not to wander about.

Tracy had no idea where to go as well, she couldn’t go home or any crowded places, so she continued studying the large scroll.

When she got tired or sleepy, she took rests in the makeshift tent.

Before they knew it, they had spent an entire day in the dilapidated building.

In the meantime, no one from the Golden Oak came chasing after them.

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

But Leonard always felt that there was more trouble to come, especially with

Tracy and the scroll in her hand.

The next day, at noon.

Tracy cooked some food using a pot. They ate their meals in the rundown building.

After dinner, Leonard intended to do some reading and contemplation as usual. However, as he picked up the Silver Moon Mirror for his habitual daily check, his expression stiffened.

“Huh…”

The artefact in Leonard’s hand was the Silver Moon Mirror.

This was the internal communication tool of the Silver Moon Sect.

After the auction battle, it had lost all sign of activity.

Leonard thought such an excellent long-range communication tool would be used again by the Silver Moon Sect.

Maybe it would bring about a surprise.

Little did he expect, after all these days, he finally heard the whispers of demons from the mirror again.

He was already familiar with decrypting the code. So he picked it up and tried. Initially, he thought he would hear some secrets of the Silver Moon Sect. What surprised him was a mission. ‘The target is near the ruins approximately five kilometers east of Gunpowder Street in South City. Old Cook, confirm the exact location of the target for us’ couldn’t be cracked.

“Gunpowder Street in South City…isn’t that my current location?” After decoding the confidential message, Leonard’s countenance turned strange.

What is happening?

His first instinct was that Tracy had been located again.

But it felt strange. If it was the people from the Golden Oak looking for Tracy, that would make sense. But why was the Silver Moon Sect looking for her too?

However…

Could they be coming after me?

The intelligence conveyed only commands, no reasons. Leonard was clueless about what happened.

Regardless, it was a fact that the enemies had located his general spot using some special methods.

“Hiss… Divination again?”

Leonard Churchill pondered over it.

The Light and Dark Holy Nail, the cross and the Weeping Angel…

All of these were treasured possessions acquired from the Silver Moon Sect.

If they found out, it would be reasonable to look for him.

No way… if they really knew I possess the angel, would they dare to come? Aren’t they afraid that I might release and destroy them all in the process? Besides, didn’t they have enough at Thunderbolt Fortress with Reuel Bible? This is Sinless City. If there is a large commotion, wouldn’t it be unlike a deserted place in the wild?

Leonard Churchill felt something was not right.

After much diving, he still felt it was most likely they were coming for Tracy. Considering the power of the Old Era Remnants of the Orlan Dynasty, it was not to be underestimated.

But, no matter who they were coming for, they would have to face it.

Upon thinking of this, Leonard was not too anxious.

If it were other enemies, never mind.

If it is the Silver Moon Sect…

He could trick them too.

Reuel Bible and his team had been troubled over their inability to locate the Old Days Believer.

Upon this thought, Leonard hurriedly ran downstairs, found a postman, and dispatched an urgent letter.

He felt that this time, they might be able to frighten the people from the Silver Moon Sect for good.

Otherwise, they would keep causing him trouble from time to time.

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

In a luxurious castle in Upper City, this was the Lord’s Manor of Sinless City. After Stan Miller’s death, with the help of his maternal family, Saul Miller took over smoothly, inheriting the title and the position of the Lord of Sinless City.

At this moment, he was rallying his troops at the Lord’s Manor.

In his hand was a very rare level four relic.

Relic-Treasure Hunter’s Compass

Details: A magical item laden with a hint of the Law of Destiny, a Level IV ancient relic. It can point towards your desired treasure. However, destiny is fair, full of ups and downs. It may point you to fortune, but you will also have to bear equivalent misfortune after use.

By Saul’s side, a gorgeous noble woman watched the Frost Knight Legion being rallied, she assured him smiling, “Young Master Saul, don’t fret. This relic inherited by the Shelley Family will never fail. We’ve now confirmed the approximate location of the target. You will surely find the treasure you are looking for.”

Saul sneered, “Hmph, after waiting so long, finally my day has come!”
