Chapter 493 - Chase

Chapter 493: Chase

On the other hand, Victor was also stunned by his words and soon curled his lips upward.

"I didn\'t expect that I would meet him sooner here." He let out a laugh, turned around, and walked inside in a hurry. He soon arrived in front of a wooden cabinet, opened it with both hands, and took out multiple items like a bowler hat, a golden bracelet, bangle, a wooden staff, two unique rings, and finally, a mysterious greyish black mask from it.

Then, he put the bowler\'s hat on his head and started wearing all other accessories while leaving behind the mysterious greyish black mask and the wooden staff aside. After that, he moved towards the wardrobe, took out a trench coat from it, and put it over his casual dress.

After that, he put the mask on his face, recited a chant in a weird language, and activated the artifact.

The mask turned transparent and soon merged with his outer skin a moment later!

Meanwhile, Irzoch and the Light Knight watched the scene in silence and showed a confused look on their faces.

"Good," Victor said with a nod, took out a wooden staff, and held it in his right hand.

Even though it was just a wooden staff, Irzoch felt a mysterious power flowing out from it!

\'All of them are Divine Artifacts!\' She was stunned inside.

On the other hand, Bishop Victor took out a silver key and a lock from the nearby table and passed them to her.

"After cleaning, lock the door and give this key to the receptionist. I\'ll get it from him later."

Saying so, he walked past her and left the room in a hurry.

Meanwhile, Irzoch stood in the same place for more than ten seconds, turned her gaze towards the room, and stepped inside.

It was a simple room with a bed, a wooden table, a wardrobe, and finally, a cabinet.

\'It\'s time to finish my job.\'

She heaved a heavy sigh, walked towards the wooden table, and looked at the books placed on it.

But as she looked at them one by one, she couldn\'t help but show an anxious expression on her face.

\'Where is it?\' Her eyes subconsciously wandered towards the nearby bed, then towards the window, and soon returned to the table.

\'That black-covered book isn\'t here!\' Her heart skipped a beat for a moment.

\'Did he take it with him? Wait. Maybe he put it in the cupboard?\'

She instantly shifted her gaze towards the cupboard and opened it in a hurry.

The next instant, the anxious expression on her face disappeared and was replaced with a smile.

At that moment, she saw a black-covered book with a strange pentagram symbol inside the cupboard. It had some peculiar countdown appeared on the front cover and looked spooky.

\'What is that countdown? Maybe an activation time?\' She hurriedly shook her head, picked up the black-covered book from the cupboard, and stored it inside her space ring.

After that, she didn\'t dare to delay a single moment and walked out of the small room. She moved out of the residential building in a minute and left Oak Street through a carriage.

Although the gatekeepers inquired her when she left the building, she made excuses and escaped.

...

While she was on her way to the eastern gate, Bishop Victor and the Light Knight were going to the main Church building through a horse-drawn wooden carriage.

It was an open-type carriage. The front was decorated with a bright red color, and the sides were painted with a pair of black wings.

"Do you really think that Flame Demon would invade our Holy See, Father?" The Light Knight sat on the front seat, drove the carriage, and asked.

Upon hearing those words, Bishop Victor showed a thoughtful look on his face and answered.

"I once thought that our future is a fixed one, Young man. But now I know that nothing is fixed in this world. As long as you control your future, it will change according to your thoughts." His tone appeared mysterious and profound.

"So, the Flame Demon might not come as you have predicted? Then, why did His Holiness feel unsettled all of a sudden? Maybe is it another enemy?" The Light Knight probed.

As Bishop Victor was about to respond, his vision turned blurry, and soon he saw a future vision in the form of images!

In those images, he saw that the nun he met earlier was running on a dirt road, and he seemed to be chasing after her. Even though he was drenched in rainwater, his angry expression was visible on his face.

Indeed, his understanding of \'Future\' Time had increased a bit due to his earlier reincarnation, giving him a seer\'s skill in return!

Although it wasn\'t as strong as Charles\'s skill, it could indeed predict some near future incidents!

Upon seeing those images, Victor realized that he had been fooled by that nun named Sophie and went bloodshot!

\'That damned nun is an imposter! Is she after the Holy Book?! How did she know?\' Countless questions whirled inside his head.

"HALT!" He roared madly, causing the Light Knight to pull the horse reins in panic.

"W-What happened, Father?" He asked while trying his best not to crash the carriage to the nearby poster.

On the other hand, Bishop Victor didn\'t utter a response, waved the wooden staff in his hand, and jumped down from the slowing carriage.

He then moved towards the right-side horse, cut the reins, and hopped on it.

Although the Light Knight got confused by his action, he soon realized that Bishop Victor was going somewhere and warned him.

"D-Don\'t whip that horse, Father. It will get scared and start running around aimlessly in panic."

"I\'ll take care of it." Bishop Victor waved his hand and made a pat on the horse\'s neck before making a clicking noise.

Simultaneously, he touched the golden bracelet, whispered a strange incantation, and muttered.

"Go faster."

In the meantime, the white horse let out a loud neigh and ran towards the opposite side.

Bishop continued to ride the horse while crossing multiple streets and lanes and reached the eastern side within 15 minutes.

At that moment, the darkened sky created flashes of blue lightning and started pouring raindrops wildly.

Without minding the sudden rain, Victor jumped down from the horse and hurriedly ran towards the exit gate.

Although the Holy Knights tried to stop him, he took out a light badge from his pocket and showed it to them before walking out of the ten-meter-tall wall.

He first looked at the surrounding woods, then towards the long queue, and finally shifted his gaze towards the dirt path that moved deep into the woods.

"Did you see a woman covering herself with black poncho dress leave the city?" He asked the nearby gatekeeper.

In the meantime, the gatekeeper got startled inside and responded in a stutter.

"Y-Yes, My Lord. She just left the city two minutes ago-"

Before he could even finish his words, Victor released ice-elemental energies and dashed towards the dirt path.
