William shook his head: "That guy was blindly confident in his arrangents and left a loophole for the evil spirits."
He pointed to the pile of remains behind him.
Catherine ca to William's side, pinching her bracelet and silently chanting a spell.
Subsequently, William felt a burst of clear and comfortable sensation.
"I just checked with Cleansing Spirit Witchcraft; there is no residual evil aura on your body," she proactively explained.
"Uh... thanks." William didn't expect the other party to be so enthusiastic.
He actually wanted a bit of residual evil aura.
"That's good," Farlin let out a long sigh of relief. "Ms. Catherine asked us for help not long ago, and we learned what happened on our way here."
He bowed deeply as he spoke.
"I am truly very sorry to have let such a dangerous person infiltrate the Guild and pose a threat to our guests' lives. This is a serious dereliction of duty on our part."
William waved his hand: "No need to take a bad person's mistakes upon yourself, and besides, I wasn't injured."
"He's right." Another demon hunter spoke up: "I said long ago, the Guild should be stricter in reviewing its mbers."
"Mr. Allard, let's not bother the guest with Guild matters, what do you think?" Farlin spoke humbly.
"Hmph." Allard snorted coldly, and then started sizing up the room on his own.
"This is Mr. Enzo Allard, a very formidable demon hunter, and also a 2-Star Exorcist of the Guild," Farlin proactively explained.
"Allard..." William raised an eyebrow.
"Could he be a mber of the Sadie family? Why haven't I ever heard her ntion him?" he thought inwardly.
At this ti, Allard's voice ca from the side again.
"There should have been many evil materials stored here. Were they all purified by you?" He turned around, sizing William up curiously.
"Only a portion." William had already prepared his excuse.
"That guy nad Bellon used so things to protect himself after being backfired on by the evil. Although he destroyed a large portion, he was still swallowed by the remaining evil spirits, which gave an opportunity."
"Is that so." Allard was noncommittal.
"Then you really are quite strong. No wonder you could break the real-ti leaderboard record."
William frowned, thinking inwardly: "This should be my first ti eting this person, why is this guy speaking in such a sarcastic tone."
"Mr. William, as long as you are alright." Seeing the atmosphere was a bit off, Farlin hurriedly stepped forward.
"Please leave the aftermath of this matter to the Guild; we will definitely give you an explanation."
He ca to William's side and lowered his voice: "Mr. Allard has... so conflicts with the Church."
"Farlin, I heard everything."
"Uh... sorry."
William looked thoughtful and nodded.
After handing the scene over to the Guild's side, William and Catherine prepared to leave.
"Oh, right, Mr. William." Farlin suddenly called out to the two.
"If you have ti later, please go to the Guild office building. Ms. ryl proactively requested to see you."
"See ?" William looked puzzled.
Farlin nodded: "She very likely knows so intelligence behind this incident, but she said she won't cooperate with us unless she sees you, so what do you think..."
"No problem."
William agreed imdiately.
After all, having taken so many of the other party's evil materials, his inner sense of morality had decreased slightly.
"Then thank you very much." Farlin bowed again.
After William and Catherine left.
"Farlin, the Guild lost so many evil materials, and you just let that kid go?" Allard said.
"There is only so energy residue from Church magic arrays here, other than that, there are no powerful holy artifacts."
"Those evil spirits were purified completely in a short ti."
"Whether it's that Bellon or this William, both are related to the Church. Do you think this matter is really as simple as it seems on the surface."
Farlin shook his head.
"We checked Mr. William's background; he is very clean. If the Church really wanted to deal with the Exorcist Guild, this thod would be too ostentatious."
"Moreover, Mr. William indeed helped us solve a big trouble. Otherwise, if it really caused an evil descent, I wouldn't be able to explain it to the President."
Allard sneered: "What wouldn't that bunch of hypocrites from the Church do."
"However, to be able to purify so many evil spirits in a short ti, the strength of the person doing this won't be weak, at least very close to mine."
Surprise flashed in Farlin's eyes: "Are you saying that Mr. William has the strength of a 2-Star Exorcist?"
"Who knows, didn't that guy say he didn't do it." Allard poked at Bellon's remains.
On the way back.
"Mr.... William, I didn't expect you to still be alive... oh no!" Catherine hurriedly covered her mouth.
"I an, thank you for saving earlier."
William waved his hand: "By the way, I learned so things about you from Bellon."
Catherine turned her head, doubt flashing in her bright eyes: "Things about ?"
William nodded and told the other party about Bellon restricting Catherine with high-level holy artifacts.
"It really was him..." Catherine frowned tightly. "I always thought it was the fami..."
She suddenly stopped her voice, hesitating for a mont before seemingly making so decision.
"I co from the Vatican Church. As for why I use witchcraft, I... I..."
"This is Ms. Catherine's private matter, you don't need to explain to ." William stopped the other party.
This kind of "Big shot" escaping from the Church's center of power must have very tricky troubles on them; he didn't want to actively seek trouble.
"Since there's no danger now, let's part ways here," William proactively spoke up.
"Wait!"
Catherine hurriedly blocked in front.
"I still want to buy so holy artifacts from you."
William only then rembered this matter, feeling a bit awkward for a mont.
Previously, to test if Catherine also intended to attack him, William casually claid he still had holy artifacts.
But in reality, he really didn't have any left.
"Uh... well, I do!"
William looked serious.
"High-level holy artifacts are very precious; normally I wouldn't carry them on . I'll go get them after eting that manager, and I'll contact you then."
Catherine's eyes were bright, and she nodded: "Okay!"
The two quickly returned to the Guild hall.
After saying goodbye to Catherine, William quickly squeezed into the crowd.
"Making low-vintage holy artifacts is more tiring than purifying evil spirits; better let her find soone else."
After going back to rest and reorganize, William quickly arrived at the agreed eting place with Farlin.
Exorcist Guild, Temporary Holding Facility.
William followed Farlin to a room.
ryl was staying inside alone, covered in bloodstains, and her hands were also restrained by special cuffs.
Creak...
Farlin was the first to walk in.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, ryl raised her head.
"Farlin... I said I can cooperate with your investigation, but I must see that gentleman."
Farlin sighed, got up, opened the door, and walked out.
A mont later.
"You looking for for sothing?" William walked in and looked at ryl.
The latter stared straight at William: "I know this is aningless... but, I am very sorry for my previous actions."
William was stunned.
"In the corridor you didn't choose to take to the materials room, so there's no need to say this."
ryl lowered her head: "Inviting you over this ti, actually I have a matter I want to ask for your help with..."
She told him about her daughter being troubled by the evil spirit.
"Now Winnie's condition is gradually worsening, and the effect of the amulets they gave is also getting shorter and shorter."
William raised an eyebrow; so the injury on the female manager's hand ca from here.
"So... I want to beg you to save her." ryl raised her head.
William looked strange: "How are you so sure I will definitely have a way?"
"After Winnie beca like this, I asked many exorcists." ryl sighed.
"They either said they couldn't save her, or said there was a demon trying to occupy Winnie's body..."
"For so many years... only your answer was different."
William rubbed his chin: "Just based on a different opinion, you dare to let your own daughter try?"
"I already... have no other way." ryl covered her face. "Dragging it on further, the situation will only worsen."
"I originally thought the Church was a hope... but..."
William narrowed his eyes and didn't speak.
"If... you agree, I am willing to give you the thing my father left for ."
ryl looked at William.
"You know, he was once a 2-Star Exorcist."
"You can go look at that thing first, and then decide whether to agree."
"Can the Guild agree to this matter?" William turned his head.
"ryl's father Royce was a respectable exorcist."
Farlin's voice ca from the room's broadcast.
"We will not confiscate this relic just because of ryl's actions."
William secretly admired: "The Exorcist Guild is truly broad-minded."
Then he nodded: "I can agree to you. After checking your daughter's condition, if I have a way to solve it, we will reach the deal then."
"Thank you. Farlin will take you to get that thing." ryl bowed deeply.
Before long, the Guild's Private Safe Room.
This was a facility specifically providing item storage services.
As long as a certain fee was paid, one could rent a storage compartnt here, and the things inside would receive the Guild's strictest safekeeping.
It beca an excellent place for many exorcists to keep "Secrets."
In front of Storage Compartnt No. 702.
Beep~
After the access control was unlocked, the storage door automatically popped open a small slit.
"If you have any needs, you can call at any ti."
Farlin gave an instruction and proactively stepped out.
Only William was left in the storage room.
He reached in and took out a wooden box from the compartnt. Carved on it was a divine image of angel wings, as well as so text symbols.
Judging from the box's style, this thing seed to have so age.
There was a small lock on the surface of the box, and the key was placed right beside it.
Just as William planned to open it, he suddenly noticed a trace of anomaly.
"The runes on this wooden box seem to be a kind of small-scale magic array..."
He widened his eyes, observing carefully with [Holy Eye].
Then he indeed found traces of Holy Power on the box, and judging from the energy fluctuations, it seed to be an isolation magic array.
This made William even more curious.
He opened the wooden box; inside was only a silver crucifix, looking no different from an ordinary crucifix.
But the situation was obviously not this simple.
William tried to cancel the isolation magic array.
Just as he was about to succeed, he suddenly stopped his hand movents, and then set up three layers of isolation magic arrays on the ground around him.
Only after finishing these did he remove the restrictions on the wooden box.
In the next mont.
Buzz~
A burst of dazzling golden light blood from William's hand, dyeing the surrounding environnt golden.
In the air, Holy Light scattered like catkins, and a pure, flawless wing surfaced on the wooden box's surface.
Feeling the terrifying Holy Power fluctuation in his hand, William looked incredulous.
"This is... a hundred-year vintage holy artifact?"
He picked up the crucifix, instantly feeling a kind of purity, as if all evil would automatically dissipate at this mont.
"If I had this thing earlier, probably the evil spirits in the room would have been purified as soon as they appeared," he sighed inwardly.
"Didn't expect that female manager would actually have such a thing. Could her father also be from the Church?"
If the Church knew there was a hundred-year vintage holy artifact here, they would probably send people to fight for it the next day.
"She just handed the thing to like this... really big-hearted," William sweatdropped a bit.
This harvest was indeed beyond his expectations.
In this way, the materials needed to summon an angel were gathered a bit more.
"But... the ritual seed to have ntioned, needing ten hundred-year vintage holy artifacts..."
No matter what, William had decided to complete this deal.
He sealed the holy artifact again, and then cleaned up the scene a bit before leaving the storage room.
One day later.
ryl, who was imprisoned in the holding facility, was told to head to her own ho.
Accompanied by Farlin, she saw William again.
"I..."
"Deal reached."
ryl's eyes widened upon hearing this: "You an..."
"Don't rush, the purification hasn't started yet," William said.
"Having you co here, besides letting you see it with your own eyes, your help is also needed during the purification process."
"I am willing to do anything." ryl looked serious.
William nodded.
"You said you were once pregnant with two children... the evil spirit on Winnie is indeed one of them."
Hearing this, ryl's hands trembled slightly.
"Every evil spirit has an obsession. Only by solving this can they be completely purified," William explained.
"Later you must personally face that evil spirit baby. I will create an opportunity for you, but whether you can untie that guy's obsession still depends on you," William said.
A strange look flashed in Farlin's eyes aside.
He had also learned about many exorcism thods, but the things Mr. William ntioned, he had never heard of.
"I... understand!" ryl clenched her fists.
William nodded, and then walked to Winnie's side.
Due to the evil spirit's influence, the ti this girl was awake was getting shorter and shorter.
William had already made arrangents around beforehand, so he took out a brown face mask from his bag and put it on the girl's face.
In the next mont.
Winnie opened her eyes.
"Mum, why do you bring so n every day... Mmph!!"
William stuffed a clean handkerchief into Winnie's mouth and explained calmly: "Don't worry, this is a normal phenonon before purification."
ryl was stunned, then nodded.
William took out the Gospel Bible, and then two circles of golden patterns surfaced in his pupils.
He projected Holy Power onto Winnie, and a spirit body quickly floated above the latter's head.
This was William using Holy Arts to guide her soul to the outside.
As soon as the spirit body appeared, it emitted a large amount of evil aura around it, fortunately blocked by the small-scale magic array.
The half of the spirit body belonging to Winnie had no consciousness, but there was a spirit body thread connecting to her body.
This was exactly the effect of the [Smiling Face Mask].
And the other half was an evil spirit in the appearance of a baby, fiercely waving its arms.
William looked at the other party and quickly saw a tiny chain on the evil spirit.
This thing appeared a dense red color, obviously the manifestation of the "Sin of Hate."
Relying on [Holy Eye], he briefly severed the two souls.
"Now." William spoke, "Ms. ryl, he hates you very much."
This sentence was like a nail, fiercely chiseling into the latter's heart.
ryl walked tremblingly with both hands to the front of the evil spirit baby.
eting the other party's scarlet eyes.
