Chapter 662 Blind
Vale was surprised but also felt a bit pleased by what she said. It meant that Pearl really acknowledged how strong he was.
"If you think so... Then, I'll check it out." Vale said as he thanked the two Agents from the Bureau.
They could have just sent him a message through their communication crystal or summoned a messenger to deliver the information. But the fact that they came in person showed that they were really taking his position in the Bureau seriously.
After the two agents said goodbye, Vale started to get ready.
He wore a new Arcanist Robe made by Magnus and used the scabbard that Faith had given him to suppress the power of his Stormbringer Sword. This way, he wouldn't have any trouble carrying it around.
Then, Vale wore his broken Arcana, the black cloth, and blindfolded himself. Of course, his Doombringer Ring was also worn on his middle finger just in case he needed to use its power.
It didn't take him that long to complete his preparation. Then, he informed everyone in the castle about his plans.
"Are you sure you want to go alone? I can probably help you escape if you're in a life-and-death situation." Lisa, the Vampire, asked after hearing Vale's plans. She was confident that with her current ability with her Blood Manipulation, she would be able to escape any danger.
"I'm fine... I have a Dark Spirit with me. I'll also feel reassured if you're staying here in the castle." Vale replied.
"What? Marcus and Merlin are here. What kind of problem will we even have here?" Lisa replied as she knew the strength of the two Half-Immortals. Nevertheless, she could see that Vale had already made his decision, so she decided not to pursue it.
"Do you want me to send Lotus with you?" Denise suddenly asked, referring to her Dark Spirit... Denise had been busy with the golems all this time and rarely left her workplace.
After hearing her voice, Vale couldn't help but smile. Since Denise was one of his first few friends, she always had a special place in his heart, so he nodded after a moment of thought.
"Lotus? Sure... If she's okay with it, then I guess it will be nice to have two Dark Spirits."
With that said, Lotus attached herself to Vale, who was already blindfolded. She didn't say any words and simply entered his shadow.
After a few more words, he activated the broken Arcana's mystical ability that allowed him to use space magic!
With this ability, Vale could easily reach the place that the two Agents mentioned as long as he knew the coordinates!
He only felt a slight dizziness as he used the space magic… It was nothing compared to when he first used this ability.
However, he was still not used to this kind of travel since he wasn't using it every day, but he knew it was faster and safer than flying.
After a few moments, Vale realized that the Broken Arcana failed him. He didn't arrive at the place he wanted, perhaps due to the Arcana's limitation.
"At the very least… I'm close to it… It should be two or three more times." Vale whispered as he realized that he had arrived at the Millton Kingdom once again.
He easily recognized it because he sensed the numerous Holy Knights in the city not too far from him. They seem to be hunting the Dark Magicians still.
He decided to ignore them as he continued with the use of his Arcana.
He hoped that the coordinates given to him were accurate and that he would not end up in a trap or a dead end.
'If it's a trap… I guess I'll have to personally visit the Bureau.' Vale thought as he activated the Broken Arcana for the fourth time…
This time, he finally arrived at his destination.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw that he was in a dark and desolate place.
The thick cloud that was threatening to become a heavy storm and the thick aura of corruption in the air was already telling him a lot...
He knew that he was in the right place.
Then, he also sensed the presence of the Demon Saints nearby.
***
"A visitor?" The only Demon Saint in the Northern Ice Valley said after feeling the disturbance in space. It wasn't a ritual, so someone must have used their skill to get here through space magic.
As soon as a person with a blindfold appeared, the Demon Saint got up and narrowed his eyes.
The person who came excited him!
"Immortal!" The Demon Saint's eyes sparkled as he knew the benefits he would get if he got their Core that produced Divinity!
But he also knew that Immortals were powerful. They were not comparable to Half-Immortals at all.
In short, fighting him alone would be a certain death for him!
He needed to stall for time until his brother came!
After some hesitations, the Demon Saint slowly approached the man who was standing still on a rock where he landed.
"Welcome, Blind Immortal. I'm Galan and I'm honored by your visit. What brings you to this humble place?"
He tried to sound polite and friendly, although they both knew that they would have to fight later. Nevertheless, he knew that this Immortal was curious about them as well, so he decided not to appear too aggressive to buy more time.
Of course, while doing this, the Demon Saint Galan was already wondering what the Immortal would do and how he could escape or fight him.
"You know very well that I'm looking for you guys… Where are the others?" The man asked rudely.
Galan gritted his teeth as he hoped that his brothers, who were in another valley, would sense his distress and come to his aid.
He knew that his brothers were stronger than him and had a better chance of dealing with the Immortal.
Anyway, he tried to remain calm as he knew that Immortals were good at reading emotions and intentions.
He tried to act confident, but he was not sure if he could fool the Immortal.
"There are no other Demon Saints in this valley, Blind Immortal."
