Chapter 542 Cap 540: Rescue Oracle(Chapter Preview)

After we arrive at the mansion that the Queen let us use during our stay in this city, I notice that it is in good condition and clean, before exploring the mansion I gather everyone in the dining room which I noticed is in the room next to the Entrance Hall.

"What did you mean earlier about an Oracle of rescue?" (I)

"A few months ago I received an Oracle, at least part of one, but I couldn't understand it until now, so I didn't say anything before." (Vanessa)

"When I read the letter earlier, the Oracle information in my head seemed to fall into place and I finally understood what the Oracle was all about." (Vanessa)

"But why did you only receive a part of the Oracle? Who was the person who sent this letter? Did that person also receive a part of the Oracle or did he receive the entire information?" (I)

"The information from the Oracle is not sent to the mind, the information is sent to my soul which then transmits to my mind." (Vanessa)

"When a Priest receives an Oracle, the information appears to be in another language and packed one on top of the other, it is up to the Priest to organize, decipher, and interpret the Oracle's information." (Vanessa)

"I'm too weak to receive an Oracle, the only reason I receive an Oracle is because I have an ability of the same type, besides my original race was a Celestine who has a great affinity with the Gods, but my current race has even more compatibility with the Blood Goddess, so I was able to receive Oracles even with my low strength and weak Soul." (Vanessa)

"This time the Oracle was very big, so I didn't fully understand it and I wasn't able to fully receive it." (Vanessa)

I think I understand what Vanessa is talking about, but I wonder why I, as a son of Selene, don't get this Oracle guy.

"This sounds confusing, so let's just talk about the contents of this Oracle." (I)

It's no use continuing on this subject if I can't fully understand what an oracle is, but in short, it's a message sent by a God to one of his Priests, at least that's the main part of what I understood.

"Did you say something about rescue..." (I)

"Yes, the Oracle was to rescue a rare Breed whose numbers are few across the world and almost none on this continent." (Vanessa)

"It seems that a few hundred of these Breeds are in danger of their lives, they are trapped somewhere I still don't fully understand." (Vanessa)

"What Breed would that be?" (I)

"Blood Demons." (Vanessa)

"I have encountered one of these in the past being sold as a combat slave, this race possesses the ability to manipulate blood, they also have very powerful bodies and unparalleled regeneration abilities." (Elsaris)

"Blood Demons are a reclusive race because they are feared and hated across the continent." (Lilian)

"Why are they feared and hated?" (I)

"They are a naturally powerful race, plus most of the abilities they possess are blood related which makes them the natural enemy of any creature that has blood." (Lilian)

"Already the reason there are many who hate them, this is because they are fervent devotees of the Goddess Selene, their entire culture was built on the teachings of the Goddess, this makes all the Vampires who disown the Goddess on this continent hate them." (Lilian)

"In the past, I saved some of them that were used as Sacrifice." (Lilian)

"Speaking of Sacrifices, in some of the demon books I got from my late husband, there were a lot of references to various types of Sacrifice rituals." (Lilith)

"Thanks to that I read some information about this race, it seems that they are perfect Sacrifice material because each individual of that Race has vitality comparable to 100 people, some may even have even stronger vitality." (Lilith)

Vanessa says that this Oracle contains information that these Blood Demons are trapped somewhere, it also makes it seem like every few individuals of that race on this continent are in the same situation, so Lilith talks about Sacrifice.

"(Have they been captured to be used as a sacrifice?)" (I)

"Does anyone else know anything else about the Blood Demons?" (I)

"I read in some books before I entered my centuries long slumber that this race was born from a powerful Demon from the past who swore allegiance to Goddess Selene, that Demon was even a Hero of the Goddess, Blood Demons are her descendants. " (Vanessa)

"In the Black Empire, there are books that tell similar things, for that reason I respect this race." (Lilian)

Sigh

I don't know what to do, why do I have to save this Breed, I don't even know them, so what should I do?

"..." (I)

"If people from the neutral Vampire Faction have known about this for months, why haven't they sent people to this continent?" (I)

"I also don't understand why the Blood Demons stayed on this continent if they were so isolated from other races and had so many enemies." (I)

"Even though the number of Blood Demons is small compared to other races, they still have thousands of people, they are also scattered on other continents." (Vanessa)

"If there are people of this race on other continents, then why did those of that continent stay here?" (I)

"This continent was where your race was born, moreover your ancestors were buried or sent to the world of the dead in this continent, leaving your home is not an easy thing to do, I can imagine that in the past they were divided because not everyone wanted to leave their home to go to other continents." (Lilian)

Sigh

"I think we can help if there aren't too many risks for us, plus I'll want to confirm the reason for their arrest." (I)

"If what Lilith said is true, then the chances are high that they will be used as a sacrifice in some sort of unholy ritual." (Irius)

"This kind of Ritual if you use hundreds of people of that race, it will be worth hundreds of thousands of sacrifices, it would also be easier to transport." (Rakan)

"I've studied Sacrifice, but nothing comes to mind about such a great sacrifice other than some kind of forbidden summon." (Rakan)

"You must be kidding, we're going to find other lunatics trying to summon monsters just like in the Makari Kingdom." (I)

"This is just a hypothesis, but they can be used for something else, sacrificial rituals can be used in many different situations." (Rakan)

"I remember Farus would gather the vitality of the people he killed to give to the Heretic God he serves, I've seen him doing something like this before." (Jade)

"I don't think there's any point in trying to guess what the Blood Demons are being held for, that would just be a waste of time, we have to follow only the information we have instead of wasting time guessing at random." (Ivan)
