Inside the Chapel of Divine Grace, the air seemed to have frozen solid.

Everyone's breath halted in this moment, their gazes fixed intently on the kneeling figure before the altar.

"My Lord, I know that words of penance are pale."

"Today, I offer my soul, my everything, to prove my devotion!"

Viridian raised his hands high, his voice echoing beneath the solemn dome, every word filled with resolve and sanctity.

Grand Knight Commander Gabriel trembled with excitement, as if he could already foresee a miracle unprecedented in the annals of Church history about to unfold before his very eyes!

The believers clenched their fists tightly, their eyes burning with fervent flames.

Even Marcus, who had always remained skeptical, couldn't help but hold his breath now, his heart pounding wildly.

Under the fervent gaze of everyone, Viridian slowly closed his eyes.

A trace of pain appeared upon his sacred countenance, as

  • Chapter 73: Welcome to My Hunting Ground! (Part One)

    Above the wasteland, deathly silence reigned.The gray-white beam shot from the murky eyeball atop the bone staff seemed to drain all vitality and color along its path, carrying an irresistible sealing law, aimed straight at Viridian!Confronted with an attack that would drive any equally ranked powerhouse to despair, there was not a ripple on Viridian’s face.He didn't even move.Because there was no need."Judgement."Two cold words spat from his mouth.The three-meter-tall Fallen Demon Doll behind him moved in an instant!The ground beneath the doll cracked inch by inch; its massive body blurred into a pitch-black afterimage and in a flash intercepted Veridian's path.The colossal scythe in its hand was raised high, then, with an urge to tear everything apart, it swung down ferociously!On the scythe's blade, two completely different forces erupted at the same time!On one side, a sunlit gold that could

  • Chapter 72: The Whetstone Delivered Itself!

    The hostile bloodline resonance coming from the wastelands outside the city rang like a warning bell, echoing deep within Viridian's soul.Inside the Saint Abyss Workshop, it was deathly silent.Familiar.Yet strange.Viridian slowly opened his eyes. The irises that had just lost their scarlet hue now held only a cold, almost tangible murderous intent.He recognized that presence.Decayed, ancient, carrying the weight of sealing all things.It was them!It was the Tomb Keepers from the first volume — those who treated him as a tool and nearly left him to die beneath the final seal!A scene he had once glimpsed through that Tomb Keeper’s memories flashed across Viridian’s mind in an instant.He was nothing more than a "tool" used to open the seal.And now, from Samael’s memories, he had received an even more humiliating, even colder answer.He is not merely a tool.He is

  • Chapter 71: Becoming the Key, Wielding the End!

    In the prayer room, the holy light faded.Viridian's figure emerged from the darkness. He did not look at the pile of ash on the floor that marked Samael's last trace; instead, he returned at once to the Crow's Nest Manor.He had to go back to the domain that belonged to him alone.Back in the Sanctum Workshop, the place that shut out all prying eyes.The instant Viridian stepped into the workshop, an uncontrollable, searing pain—like a red-hot branding iron—erupted from the deepest recesses of his veins!The Sanctum Blood within him was boiling!That trace essence of the Keybearer’s blood he had devoured from Samael was like a drop of deadly catalyst thrown into scalding oil, attempting in a brutal, uncontrollable way to forcibly rewrite the very essence of his life!Agony!An agony like never before!One hundred times more violent than any previous modification!Viridian's body trembled uncontr

    The prayer chamber was deathly silent.Viridian's will, like a ravenous beast, rampaged through Samael's soul-sea teetering on the brink of collapse.Countless shattered memories turned into a chaotic torrent of data, brutally dragged, chewed, and parsed by him.Internal regulations of the Ashes Council.The membership roster of "Tear-Blood Eye."One merciless trial after another against "divine anomalies."These are all merely appetizers.Viridian's target was hidden in the deepest part, the "main course" where the flavor was thickest and most essential!His will pierced through layer upon layer of useless information; at last, he "saw" it!At the root of Samael's memories, a pitch-black archive box bound tightly by countless chains of grey runes.This was the ultimate secret the Council had branded into the deepest part of his soul!Viridian's will hesitated not at all; it condensed into the sharpest spik

  • Chapter 69: A Bloody Hunt Under the Holy Light Barrier!

    Deep within the Chapel of Sacred Grace, there was an airtight prayer chamber.There were no windows here, only a perpetually lit candle casting wavering shadows on the stone walls, the air heavy with the dusty, ancient scent of spices."Brother Viridian, this place is the most secluded; no mundane clamor will disturb our communion with our Lord."The angelic envoy Samael wore a gentle, compassionate smile; he pointed to the room’s only stone bench, indicating that Viridian should sit.Viridian obediently sat, lowering his eyelids, adopting a posture both humble and expectant.Inside him, however, there was only an icy silence.It has begun.Samael walked to the center of the chamber, pressed his hands together, and began intoning an ancient, obscure prayer. It was not a hymn praising the sun god, but a language more austere and far colder.As he chanted, threads of gray air, almost invisible to the naked eye, drifted from

    Three days after the miracle.The whole Silver Sail City had gone mad.St. Grace Chapel, that once secluded place only frequented by a handful of regular worshippers, had now become the hottest sacred site in the entire city.Tens of thousands of people poured in from every corner of the city, filling the church inside and out until there was no room to breathe. Their faces were alight with fervor and devotion; they all wanted to behold the Sun God statue that had shed its "crystallized divine grace," hoping to brush against some share of the deity's favor.And Veridian, who had caused it all, politely declined Grand Knight Gabriel's every attempt to persuade him to stay—citing that he was "extremely weakened after sacrificing a soul"—and returned to Crow's Nest Manor, shutting himself away.He was digesting.Digesting the vast tide of faith-power brought on by that grand "miracle."and waited patiently.Waiting for the bait he had
