Seymour stepped forward and hugged Gisele tightly.
"Oh, my child, you must have suffered a lot over the years."
Gisele's voice trembled, not asking why Seymour still kept the appearance of a child.
Hearing his mother's concern, Seymour could no longer suppress his emotions, and tears burst out instantly.
"Child, I know."
"The food around the wooden house, no monster intrusion..."
"I knew you were always protecting ."
Only then did Seymour understand that his mother had always been aware of his existence.
Outside the wooden house.
"What a warm scene."
Sadie adjusted the brim of her hat.
This experience allowed her to see many sceneries she had never seen before.
Compared to the desolation of the West, the people and things here also had another kind of excitent.
She stole a glance at William.
When they first t, Sadie thought this priest was like other clergy mbers, a pedantic person.
And rude, of course!
But after spending this ti together, she found that this priest's mind was very delicate.
Of course, she hadn't forgotten her purpose for this trip.
Originally, Sadie was determined to get the holy oil.
But after witnessing the priest's ability shown in Ambrose, she thought of another possibility...
Aside, Sasha was a little silent.
The reunion of Gisele and Seymour reminded her of her father.
If she hadn't t William and the others on this trip, she might never have returned ho.
At that ti, would her father also wait for her like Gisele?
At this mont, Sasha understood why her father was so strict with her; it was all to protect her safety.
William watched this scene expressionlessly.
He indeed did it to eliminate the resentnt of the dead spirits in Ambrose.
But the previous Hank family, and now Gisele, made William realize one thing.
Maybe exorcism was not simply eliminating evil, nor just a trade of money and power.
In these events, the people ntioned above were all mortals living in such a dangerous world, likely to lose their lives at any ti due to encountering evil spirits.
Despite this, Gisele could still disregard danger and wait in this dense forest for decades.
For William, encountering evil spirits was just a choice of "to do" or "not to do."
But for these ordinary people, it might determine their fate for the rest of their lives.
This made William feel the weight of the identity of "priest."
While pondering, Seymour and Gisele walked over together.
"Father, let's start the ritual."
He looked at his mother Gisele, whose eyes were full of encouragent.
"Seymour caused many innocent people to lose their lives. I'm sorry for this; let him complete what he should do."
Gisele said with a sincere face.
Sadie opened her mouth slightly upon hearing this; she thought Gisele would ask William to keep Seymour in the human world.
Aside, William nodded.
"After the blessing, you will wash away the sins on your body and re-enter the cycle of reincarnation."
"Thank you, Father; I will cherish this opportunity."
William quickly set up the ritual.
Previously, he only eliminated the evil aura on Seymour, allowing the latter to reunite with Gisele. This mont was the formal blessing ritual.
William dipped his hand in so holy water and sprinkled it gently on Seymour's forehead.
The latter was not purified, but instead beca much more solid, emitting a faint white light.
"rciful Heavenly Father, please surround Seymour with grace. With a sincere heart, he is willing to pray for the vengeful spirits..."
Accompanied by William's voice, Seymour's feet left the ground.
At the sa ti, a black cloud suddenly gathered in the sky.
Ghosts wailed and gods howled in the clouds, and "human figures" appeared from ti to ti.
And they all cursed at Seymour, seemingly venting all their emotions on him.
Seymour's expression also gradually beca painful.
But William's voice was always in his ears.
The Holy Light on Seymour beca more and more dazzling, sprinkling on the ghostly cloud.
Such a scene lasted for more than a minute.
Under the surprised gaze of Sadie, Gisele, and Sasha, the sky finally returned to normal.
And Seymour also disappeared, leaving only a cross falling from mid-air.
William picked it up and handed it to Gisele.
"This is the witness of Seymour's suffering. The day the cross is bathed in Holy Light represents Seymour completely eliminating his sins and completing reincarnation."
Gisele took it carefully upon hearing this, nodding solemnly.
"I will keep it forever, even into the grave."
The corner of William's mouth twitched upon hearing this.
This sounded like setting a flag; he could imagine a new Arican horror story from this.
So he hurriedly corrected: "Just find a place to keep it safe; usually the ritual can be completed in a few months."
After eliminating another hidden danger, William began to pack up his things.
The blessing ritual just now was not his own creation, but an event recorded in the Church Bible.
It's just that it had always been regarded as historical docunts rather than a real "ritual."
William also discovered it accidentally after his Holy Power increased.
With the study of Church theology, he felt more and more that the contents recorded in these classics were not fabricated, but seed to have actually happened in a certain historical period.
Sasha looked at this scene in amazent.
"This really is a blessing ritual! But doesn't this kind of ritual consu a lot of Holy Power?"
Although she hadn't seen it before.
But under the arrangent of Bishop Julius, Sasha had studied relevant theological knowledge and understood that this was a complicated ritual.
Generally completed by a Church Archbishop and two priests together.
And her father Julius ntioned that such rituals had high requirents for the cleric's ntal power and Holy Power.
Therefore, only Parish churches or so large parish churches could hold them.
But right now, this Father William completed the blessing ritual alone!
Since being rescued by him in Ambrose, Sasha had been constantly refreshing her understanding of William.
But at this mont she found that she still knew very little about this priest.
Several people dug a simple grave for Seymour, and then planned to return to the church.
Gisele finally decided to leave this place where she had lived for decades.
She planned to join the Church, taking that cross to help others, just as William helped their mother and son.
Because the evil aura in the dense forest was already very weak.
Therefore, the group didn't encounter other monsters on the way back, but saw many "monster corpses" instead.
William dialed Hank's number in advance.
So when they arrived at the edge of the forest farm, a pickup truck was already waiting there.
Seeing Sister Sasha retrieved, Hank was also happy about it.
It was late at this ti, so he invited everyone to stay at his house for the night.
The next day.
William and the others said goodbye to the Hank family.
Last night he checked Jude's body; the other party recovered very well.
Hank's wife Alvina's complexion also improved a lot.
The group returned to "St. Jehovah Cathedral" in Hank's pickup truck.
Stepping on this ground again, Sasha had an unreal feeling.
She thought she would never co back.
William dialed Ren's number.
Knowing that Sasha was found, the other party wished he could fly over imdiately.
"Watch her closely! I'll be right there."
In just two or three minutes, Ren's chubby figure appeared at the church entrance.
After confirming it was really Sasha, he hurriedly invited the latter to the church council hall.
At the sa ti, he fell a step behind and followed William.
"This Ms. Gisele wants to join the church," William said.
"Of course! Welco! Please go to..."
Ren dismissed Gisele to the registration office in a few words.
Then he looked around.
Seeing that everyone was far away, Ren lowered his voice and said: "Bishop Julius is in trouble."
