Chapter 656: Chapter 265: Evil Sorcerer (Two in One ga Chapter)
Welsh County, within a manor.
“High Priestess, just now, we received an urgent ssage from Lord Stainer.” A Black Fla cultist respectfully said to a slender female figure in black robes.
“Oh? Is it a letter from Lord Raksul? Bring it to .”
“As you command, my lady.” The Black Fla cultist handed over a slightly curled letter.
A pair of overly pale, bloodless hands reached out, took the offered letter, and lifted the hood to read it.
At that mont, the face under the hood was revealed to be that of a young woman with a seductive appearance, especially her deep brown eyes and the makeup around them resembling black eyeshadow, seed to emit a special charm, luring people into oblivion.
This seductive young woman was none other than the Black Fla Cult’s High Priestess in Welsh County—Garina Barking.
As she parted her thin lips, she read softly:
“…Count Habs’s daughter Cleya and her party… are passing through Welsh County on their way to ister… with a certain strength of guards…”
“…Capture her alive…”
“There’s an informant within their team… Their camp should be tonight in the woods between Colma Town and Ez Town…”
After reading, a contemplative look crossed Garina’s face, and she then passed the open letter to her subordinate, seemingly for them to have a look as well.
Several minutes later, Garina spoke:
“Since it’s a request from Lord Raksul, of course, we must cooperate. Get in touch with this informant and find out their current location, and confirm where they’ll be camping tonight.
“By the way, what is the strength of this earl’s daughter? Does she have any particularly formidable experts with her? We need to investigate all of this thoroughly… If we’re going to do this, let’s do it beautifully!”
“As you wish, High Priestess.”
The robed subordinate slowly withdrew…
At this ti, a sly smile appeared on Garina’s face, and she whispered:
“The ‘Phantom Art’ combined with the ‘Explosive Black Fla’ newly bestowed by the great God of Hunting. My new trump card has just been perfected; it’s a good ti to test it in real combat.”
“I hope this ti the enemy proves to be sowhat interesting…”
Garina was originally a Wizard Apprentice specializing in illusion techniques, but due to limited talent and after exhausting all effort to obtain the Vaporization Agent, she failed to break through to a full Wizard and instead suffered a great loss in power.
This caused her ntality to gradually warp, and with Raksul’s seduction, Garina turned to beco a follower of the God of Hunting, Luen, years ago.
After joining the Black Fla Cult, Garina perford exceptionally well in several missions, which earned her the God of Hunting’s favor during prayers and sacrifices. Not only did she breakthrough to a Wizard, but she also beca an Evil Sorcerer.
Evil Sorcerer, the power cos not only from their own witchcraft but more from the blessings granted by the deity they serve. This effect is similar to witchcraft, but even more sinister and bizarre, classified as Evil Magic by the orthodox.
And everyone who uses the powers of evil magic bestowed by the Evil God can be collectively referred to as an Evil Sorcerer.
“Wait, the training for the new believers within the Mingster Province is set to be held here. It’s perfect timing to call them all to witness this.”
“It can serve as practical training and also bolster their convictions that the Empire is in decline, driving them more actively into the embrace of our lord.” Garina stopped the subordinate who was about to leave and said.
“As you wish, High Priestess.” The Black Fla cultist bowed again before turning to leave.

Welsh County.
A temporary campsite by the road.
Rein carefully reviewed the conditions for his advancent to ‘King of Thousand Blades’, finding that he could hardly et any of them at the mont.
The only one he had already satisfied was the Bear King Breathing Technique.
This also implied, from another perspective, that his breathing technique level was already high enough, but since he had stepped onto the transcendent path for such a short ti, the effects had not fully manifested yet.
This was normal.
The enhancent to the body provided by a breathing technique is a continual and slow change. Normally, an ordinary person wanting to beco a formal Knight would need years of breathing technique practice to enhance their physical quality.
However, Rein soon thought of another factor.
Since he could add points to his own attributes, the effect of the breathing technique was even less noticeable. It was likely that just as he was about to experience an increase in Strength or Constitution due to the technique, his attribute points would cover it up.
For instance, because of the effects brought by the breathing technique, Rein might soon face an increase in Strength or Constitution, but if he added points to Strength or Constitution at that mont, the benefits of the technique would naturally be overshadowed by the attribute points.
To put it another way, if soone already possesses the physical quality of a Great Knight, then practicing a beginner-level breathing technique would basically have no effect, or only an insubstantial one.
Also, does it require nine secret techniques?
Luckily, it’s not nine different types of weapons.
If it’s nine secret techniques, it might be difficult for others, but for myself, it’s not so bad since I’ve already mastered five of them.
…..
Seeing Rein standing still, Cleya, who had just walked over, thought Rein was shocked by the legend of the ‘King of Thousand Blades’ of the Ancient Giant Troll race and jokingly said:
“Rein, do you think it’s possible that you have Ancient Giant Troll blood in you? Otherwise, why would you be proficient in so many weapons and extraordinary combat skills?”
