Chapter 692 Courting Death

Chapter 692 Courting Death

While Pearl was checking Lisa's body, she felt the presence of Vale's Shadow Soldier appearing beside the fallen Demon Saint...

This Demon Saint was then covered by Shadows before disappearing from sight...

Pearl just ignored this scene since there was something more important at hand.

If not for the Immortal's Blood that Lisa was controlling, she would've surely lost this battle.

Just a while ago, the Demon Saint's Demonic Ascension had nearly shattered the castle's barrier with its energy surge. If not for the dagger made of Immortal's Blood, that could've been the case...

'Well... It's still amazing how Lisa managed to win that way... She's only in her teens, but she can already win against Demons that could be hundreds or thousands of years old. Very impressive...' Pearl remarked in her mind before she quickly checked Lisa's condition.

Using her own Divinity and inspection spells, she could tell that there was still Corrupted Divinity messing up her regeneration ability.

As expected, her Vampiric Trait wasn't that almighty when attacked by Divinity.

She was alive but barely breathing. She had multiple wounds and burns on her body, and she would slowly weaken and fail to regenerate completely if she didn't receive help soon...

Nonetheless, Pearl remained calm as if she could easily heal Lisa.

After taking a deep breath, Pearl touched Lisa's body.

Lisa's clothes were torn and stained with blood. Her breathing was weak and irregular.

Pearl squinted her eyes as she confirmed that the Corrupted Divinity wasn't messing with Lisa's heart.

As long as the Vampire's heart wasn't corrupted, there would still be hope for full recovery.

'That Vale really spent a lot of Immortal Blood on this girl... Is this what they call love?' Pearl wryly smiled as she could tell that Vale was indeed taking care of this young girl.

In the meantime, the battle outside the castle no longer has anything to do with the representatives of the various organizations that had visited Vale.

After the situation calmed down, Miya accepted the Divine Crystal that was filled with Vale's Divinity. She was extremely grateful for this and promised that the Church of the Lord of the Secrets would be their ally.

On the other hand, Ceres was no longer in the mood to make a request to the Immortal. The fact that her Personal Knight turned out to be a Demon Saint in disguise had ruined the opportunity she had. Instead of making a request, she should try to help the Immortal as best as she could!

Sir Roland, on the other hand, was still a bit uneasy about the Demon Saint who had escaped from the castle. Because of the Formation Arts, aside from Vale, none of them could sense the battle of the Vampire and the Demon! He couldn't help but feel worried about this.

"Sir Immortal, not only the Order of the Prime Wisemen but also the whole Rune Arts Faction would like to be a friend of you... We have been informed of your great deeds of dealing with the Abyss Gates... The other organizations may not be taking this seriously but our Faction is different. We know how important it is that's why we don't really care about your past or your relationship with the churches..." Master Thorne said as he spoke sincerely.

Vale looked at him curiously and didn't speak. He knew that this old man had something in his mind.

"To show our sincerity, we are planning to send some Runecasters inside the Abyss Realm..." Master Thorne said.

This surprised not only Vale but also everyone in the room!

That was insane! Entering the Abyss was a suicide mission!

"Why would you do that?" Vale asked, curious and puzzled.

He couldn't help but doubt their intention for this such a dangerous task. They were basically trying to get their Runecasters killed with such a mission!

Master Thorne smiled and replied calmly.

"We want to explore the secrets of the Abyss Realm. We want to learn more about the runes and the magic that exists there. Of course, this reason may not be enough for you to believe us. However, we want to make a breakthrough in our research which will benefit the whole world. I can't tell you the exact details yet, but if we succeed, you will benefit as well..."

Master Thorne then paused for a moment before he continued...

"Of course, we're not doing this because we don't know of the dangers ahead. We have a plan to avoid getting killed as soon as we enter."
