Chapter 824 Peace
"That will be explained by the Shadow Immortal later." Magnus said, as he didn't want to divulge too much information with an unknown person beside them.
He doesn't know anything about Aubrey yet, after all. As for the information regarding their plan to use the Golden Key, he doesn't mind it leaking to the outside since it was also a way for them to eliminate the remaining Demon Saints that were hiding somewhere in the human realm.
"Fine... I actually brought our friend here. She's Miss Aubrey, and she helped Lisa return alive... The Shadow Immortal wants to meet her." Chad said.
"Very well, I'll inform the Shadow Immortal..." Magnus said as he contacted Vale's Avatar.
At this time, Lisa returned to her room and realized that it was still well-kept. It seemed that Magnus, or perhaps Denise, was still taking care of the room. Fôllôw new stories at novelhall.com
"So they really believed that I'll come back, huh..." Lisa smiled after seeing this. She couldn't help but feel emotional for a moment because of this.
Nonetheless, she immediately collected herself and found an item that she thought of giving to Aubrey.
She had actually realized that Aubrey hadn't become a Master-Class Arcanist or even a First Class Arcanist yet. She was only a Second-Class Arcanist, which was considered not too bad for her age.
However, within Vale's castle, that level of strength was too low.
She believed that Aubrey needed protection or a stronger weapon to survive longer in the world of Mysticism.
With this in mind, Lisa decided to pass on the item that she had received from Vale, which was the Doombringer Ring!
"T-this is..." Aubrey was shocked as soon as Lisa showed the item.
Of course, her gaze was fixed upon Vale's familiar yet transformed visage. Several years had already passed, and Vale had become a bit older and more handsome than before. Nonetheless, she knew that it was the same vale.
"Indeed, I am the Shadow Immortal. The Order of the Evanescent Vessels should be aware of this... The Dark Arts Factions should also know this, but I guess they may have kept this knowledge hidden from you..." He affirmed and explained the possible reason she wasn't aware of his identity.
"Right... I would like to thank you for saving Lisa..." Vale's Avatar said as he looked at Lisa and nodded. There weren't many words that needed to be said between the two.
"She's my friend. Of course, I will save her... Your words are enough. She already gave me a reward... But are you still going to give me one?" Aubrey asked after some hesitation. She decided not to be shy at all since Vale was an Immortal! It's not easy to have a friend like that!
She might as well experience the benefit of having an Immortal friend!
"Hahaha! You're right... What do you want, Aubrey? I will grant it as long as I can." Vale's Avatar said with a smile.
Since the question was already there, Aubrey decided to just express what she truly wanted.
"Ahem... I seek only peace and protection for myself and my family. To be exact, I want to work peacefully as a Paranormal Investigator... I'm afraid that refusing the offer from the Untainted Sentinels to hand Lisa's remnants at that time had damaged their reputation or something... Can you shield us from harm until we confirm that they won't bother us?" Aubrey's plea was tinged with a sense of vulnerability.
Vale immediately understood what she wanted to happen.
He then responded with a chuckle...
"Fear not, Aubrey. I shall ensure the safety of you and your kin... As a matter of fact, I'll speak to Farah regarding this so they won't think of harming you."
"Farah?" Lisa and Aubrey repeated.
"Yes... The Fortune Goddess."
