Chapter 847: Released



Apparently, as Vale scanned the surroundings, he realized that the Demon Saint's spirit, which was disguised as a normal Spirit, was actually bound to something...

To be exact, it was bound to the relic at the Altar.

'Did he get captured by the Deadly Sin? Or is it something else?' Shane mused as he felt confused about their connection.

It was unfortunate that the Demon Saint's Spirit had already disappeared, but nonetheless, the clue she had given was certainly great.

He didn't even know that Aubrey could do such a ritual.

'As expected of a student who graduated at the top of her class.' Vale thought to himself.

"B-but, destroying the Altar... That would be-" The Mayor couldn't help but feel complicated about this.

The others could understand this since it was supposed to be sacred.

However, the fact that the Exorcists couldn't find the source of the problem means that the Evil Spirt must be using something that they wouldn't think they would suspect.

The Altar was certainly a perfect guise for their evil activity.

"Let's destroy it." Werhan said after being looked at by Aubrey. In the end, Aubrey was just a paranormal expert, and she wasn't permitted to destroy things within the Church of the Fortune Goddess.

"Then... Let me."

Aubrey Hall then raised her hand, the dark energy pulsing within her.

She hoped that destroying the Altar would really yield the clue they needed to stop the paranormal activities plaguing Eldergrove town.

As her spell struck the stone, a shockwave rippled through the room.

The Altar cracked, and its ancient symbols splintered.

But then, something unexpected happened-black smoke appeared, and the very fabric of reality seemed to tear.

"Kekeke... That Demon Saint really broke my plans... Hey, I'm even eating all those wandering Evil Spirits for you but you just have to set them free! Tsk... If I could eat all of them at once, this won't be happening..."

An eerie voice was suddenly heard, and Vale knew that it was from another Deadly Sin...

'They're eating Evil Spirits?' Vale was shocked. The others eat people's desire, their hopes, their flesh, or their souls, but this Deadly Sin actually eats the Evil Spirit to strengthen itself.

Then, from the shattered Altar, hundreds of ethereal forms emerged! They were the Evil Spirits that the Deadly Sin tried to gather and eat!

Their eyes glowed with rage, and their wails echoed through the church.

Aubrey hesitated, but she immediately knew what Vale was trying to do...

She immediately used her Phantom Fog Spell!

As soon as she did this, Vale also released his spell!

And then, with a blinding flash, all the Evil Spirits shattered. Light and darkness clashed, and

the church trembled.

It happened so quickly that the Exorcists were just stunned.

When the fog disappeared, the spirits were gone.

"It's gone?" Werhan said while catching his breath..

As for the Mayor, he didn't even see the battle scene; he had curled on his feet ever since the

Evil Spirits had appeared.

Aubrey sank to her knees, her breath ragged. The other Exorcists also panted, their robes

stained with sweat.

"It's over..."

Vale's Avatar nodded...

After a few moments, the Mayor recovered and looked at the surroundings with his eyes wide.

"You did it," he said.

"The town is safe!"

Although he hadn't inspected the surroundings of the town yet, he knew that all those Evil Spirits were the cause of the problem. Now that they have all been defeated, everything

should be fine.

Aubrey, on the other hand, glanced at the shattered Altar. "But what did we release?" She whispered to Vale. Shen knew that there was something else in that Altar a while ago. She heard its voice after all.

"It's another Deadly Sin... I'll take care of it..." Vale said. Then, he soon disappeared from the

church.

He already knew which Deadly Sin it was since it previously tried to take all the Evil Spirits back... Then, with the power provided to him by Pride, he felt the presence of Sloth.
