Chapter 1784: Minor Matters

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

WHO!?

Cold sweat broke out from Divano’s forehead and started to drench his back.

The winter north wind whistled through the night and made the armed priest shudder.

It was cold and scary.

As an armed priest, Dvano had quite the confidence in his own strength.

Even if he would resolve it with hand-to-hand combat, he had the confidence to easily take out at least 10 fully armed soldiers without the ‘remnant’ that he wore on his wrist.

Had he used the ‘remnant’ on his wrist?

The numbers would go up at least 10 times or more.

Up until his level, he wasn’t just crudely using the raw abilities from the ‘remnant’ anymore, he had learned its ways and adapted to its powers.

The ‘remnant’ had started to empower his body.

Unlike abilities that provided instant results, this kind of empowerment was a lot slower, but basically had no side effects, so he didn’t need to replenish his ‘remnant’.

Of course, the levels of empowerment of the selected traits varied depending on the different remnants.

For example, his remnant, the Eye of Judgment, enabled him to sense his enemies within a certain range after killing a chicken.

Therefore, following the empowerment of his body, his senses and perceptions had grown to an outstanding level.

Similar to where he was currently standing, even though he was still some distance away from the storage, the hidden sentry spots in the area had already popped up under his perception, nothing was hidden from him.

However, despite him having his ‘remnant’ with him, someone was able to remove the ‘remnant’ from his wrist without his knowing.

If what the person took wasn’t his ‘remnant’ but something else, what would happen then?

More cold sweat breaking out on his head, Divano thought of calling back his five men right away but right after he opened his mouth, a figure walked towards him.

The figure wore a long robe and looked rather old.

Colipo!

Divano was able to tell who the person was at first glance!

As one of the armed priests, Divano knew a lot about the councilmen of Silent Night Secret Society. Other than those who always stayed in hiding, a councilman like Colipo, who always showed himself in public, was within his knowledge.

Therefore, he was certain that Colipo wasn’t capable of taking away the ‘remnant’ from him, but that didn’t mean Colipo couldn’t do it with other means.

“This is all a part of your trap? You… No, it should be those in the shadows who did this, right?” Divano spoke in a heavy tone.

Silent Night Secret Society had 17 councilmen.

Other than Colipo, several councilmen, who always stayed in hiding, were the ones people dreaded.

Even with the influence of War God Temple and their powers, they failed to find anything about those hidden councilmen.

Not just their powers, War God Temple didn’t even know their name, gender, and age.

Listening to Divano’s words, Bloody Mary disguised at Colipo frowned subtly.

It was without a doubt that some unforeseen accidents had happened, which was what Bloody Mary hated the most.

It was not that it had no confidence in its improvising capabilities. As a matter of fact, in terms of improvising, Bloody Mary took pride in it because it was the natural ability that a demon relied on to stay in existence, but Bloody Mary was afraid of trouble.

If the matters could be completed smoothly without any unforeseen accidents, it would be the happiest news for it.

If trouble popped up halfway?

It would have to finish it with clenched teeth. These matters weren’t its own to begin with, they were its boss’.

“You seem to know a great deal about us,” said Bloody Mary in Colipo’s voice and tone.

“Hmph! Bunch of filthy bastards who slept with rats, even until now. The ugly habits never change!” Divano coldly grunted before he drew his sword.

Up until this point, a fight was inevitable.

Divano didn’t think Colipo would spare him.

As for his five men?

Since Colipo was able to appear before him, they must have been faced with a grim end.

Sou!

The broad blade glimmered in a layer of light that belonged to the God of War. With an air-shredding noise, it went straight for Bloody Mary’s throat very quickly, to the point that the air-shredding noise of the blade sounded like a sharp arrow whistle.

Bloody Mary didn’t move its steps, tilting its neck slightly and letting the blade graze its neck.

The forward stab immediately changed into a horizontal sweep.

At the same time, Divano lifted his right knee like a mountain goat in a battle stance, showing off its sharp horns.

With the horizontal sweep of the sword, regardless of how Bloody Mary moved, leaning forward, moving sideways or even leaning backwards, it was impossible for him to dodge the sweep.

Should it lean forward, it would face the knee instead.

Should it move sideways or lean backwards, the calf would extend from the tightened knee and transform into a fully charged kick. The fully charged kick would be powerful enough to crush rocks, let alone the private parts of a man.

Once landed, it would have been ball-shattering.

However, Divano didn’t think his kick would cause any real damage to the enemy before his eyes.

It might be sufficient for dealing with normal enemies, but definitely not Colipo!

One thing worthy to take note was that Colipo was a councilman of Silent Night Secret Society!

Therefore, right after he performed the forward stab, Divano had prepared his right hand for a follow up attack.

The light of God of War didn’t just empower his sword, it also flowed to every inch of his body via the blood pumped out from his heart. He had to prevent himself from getting frozen, then counterattack with all his might!

Divano knew a lot about Colipo, to the point that he could recite all the information on him backwards.

He might not grasp Colipo’s personality completely but ability-wise, he knew everything.

The freezing ability that could catch one off guard was repeatedly warned about, causing Divano to be extra careful.

Although he was reluctant to admit it, he had no confidence in going up against the mysterious freezing ability.

However, at the next moment, Divano was stunned when he saw Bloody Mary move its body sideways along with the horizontal sweep.

The daze was quickly replaced by an overjoyed expression!

A chance! A rare chance!

Looking at the chance in front of his eyes, Divano felt like he had escaped death’s grasp and didn’t even consider it a trap. Right when the broad blade grazed the tip of Colipo’s ear, the fully charged kick was launched.

Bang!

The kick shook the air, a heavy thud sounding like a powerful beat from a drum.

A vicious smile appeared on Divano’s face.

Even for a councilman of the Silent Night Secret Society, he would fall severely under the powerful kick.

A severely injured councilman would not be a match for Divano!

However, when the tip of this foot touched Bloody Mary, Divano’s look turned sour.

He didn’t feel anything, as if he was kicking air!

The twisted feeling of unleashing his kick wrongly immediately dislocated Divano’s center of gravity.

Right when the armed priest went to regain his center of gravity with a firm step, Bloody Mary appeared beside his right arm in a flash and grabbed his elbow joint and wrist with lightning fast speed, going along with the motion and pushing the arm inwards.

Puk!

The sharp blade cut through Divanos throat. Blood spewed out like a fountain.

Until his last breath, Divano was unwilling to believe that Colipo, other than his infamous freezing ability, had the ability to move like a ghost.

‘If he had such speed, why didn’t he kill me at first glance?

I could not have guarded against it! Is he toying with me?’

The frustrated answer widened Divano’s dying eyes, yet it was useless.

Bloody Mary didn’t even bat an eye at Divano.

As a matter of fact, if it wasn’t for the light of God of War in his body, Bloody Mary would have killed Divano with a single clap, like how it took out the five men.

It had no reason to waste so much effort.

After that, a more concerning matter popped up.

Its eyes were staring at the shadow where Divano stood earlier.

Under the special vision of the demon, a bone bracelet was left on the floor, as though it was left behind by a careless owner.
