Chapter 72
I Will Inherit Your Dream
Alabir was one of the most powerful ten-winged fallen angels among them. Linali had seen his face from afar before, which is why she recognized him immediately.
The problem is that Alabir disappeared twenty years ago. At that time, the fallen angels searched for a long time but could not find any trace of him. They all thought he was dead, but they never expected that he would be imprisoned here.
Moreover, judging from his miserable appearance, it was obvious that he had suffered a lot of torment here, and it was he who shouted, "The governor will not let you go."
Upon hearing Lina's address of "Lady Arabil," Arabil, who had been cursing loudly, finally noticed her.
Upon seeing her compatriots, Arabil's face first lit up with joy, then turned to disappointment; the gleaming collar around Lina's neck said it all.
Then Alabir looked at the steward who had led the way and said angrily:
"You despicable Griffith, what exactly are you trying to do? Don't you know that your actions are inciting war!"
The butler did not respond to his question, but continued to lead the group toward the room where Hyoudou Issei was imprisoned. As they passed an empty cell, the butler also carried out the cross used to bind prisoners.
Lina wanted to say something, but after feeling the force on her neck, she obediently followed behind without looking at Alabir again.
When Alabir saw that the steward was treating him like he was invisible, he became so angry that he kept shouting and struggling in the cell, and soon reached the critical point of triggering the formation.
Suddenly, a bright red light shone from the wall inside the cell, and countless spells struck his body, followed by a painful howl.
The prisoners in the other cells shuddered at the sight, and their curses grew quieter.
After passing through this area, Hyuga Gen realized he hadn't seen Rize, and asked in confusion:
"Butler, isn't that ghoul I told you to lock up last time still locked up here?"
The butler smiled after hearing this.
"Young master, that ghoul's level is too low to warrant being locked up in this place."
As soon as he finished speaking, the butler stopped in front of an old-fashioned wooden door, removed the magic spell from it, and respectfully said to Hyuga Gen:
"We've arrived, young master."
"Let's go in then, I can't wait."
After Hyuga Gen finished speaking, Akiyama Rinko went inside first to scout the way for him.
After seeing Hyoudou Issei lying quietly asleep on the bed, Akiyama Rinko finally made way for Hyuga Gen behind her.
Looking at this harem king whom he had seen countless times in the past, Hyuga Gen couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
"Hyoudou Issei, although we have no grudge against each other, it's your fate to possess the sacred weapon. Don't worry, I will fulfill your dream of becoming a harem king."
Thinking about Hyoudou Issei's harem, Hyuga Gen still felt a little like sharing some of the burden, since he had seen all of them in the anime except for Fuku.
Those around him naturally had no idea what Hyuga Gen was thinking. The butler even thought that his young master was hesitating about whether to kill this human, and quickly advised him:
"Young master, you must not be soft-hearted. He is just a human being who has nothing to do with you. Moreover, this person is a pest among humans."
Knowing what the butler was worried about, Hyuga Gen nodded and said nonchalantly:
"Butler, I know. I was just thinking about something else. It wasn't that I was reluctant to hurt this human."
After finishing speaking, Hyuga Gen turned to Rena and asked;
"Could an unawakened divine artifact be created?"
Hearing that it hadn't awakened yet, Lina said somewhat uncertainly:
"It should be possible. Even if a divine artifact hasn't awakened, it's still within a human body. It's just that the host doesn't have enough power to use it."
"Then go and prepare. You know what the consequences will be if you try anything funny."
Lina nodded obediently, took the cross from the butler, fixed it to the floor, and then took out a book to draw according to its contents.
Half an hour later, Lina wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and respectfully said to Hyuga Gen:
"Hyuga-sama, the incantation has been completed, and that human can be fixed in place."
Upon hearing this, the butler picked up the still unconscious Hyoudou Issei and hung him on the cross. After securing him, the butler curiously asked Rena:
"Where did you get this ritual from? Do you high-ranking Fallen Angels even know about this stripping ritual formation?"
At this moment, the butler also realized that his earlier guess was completely unreliable. If the fallen angels had already acquired the means to strip away the divine artifacts, they would not have remained silent for so long.
Although Lina didn't know the butler's true strength, judging from Alabir's attitude just now, this person was definitely no weaker than the ten-winged fallen angel.
Therefore, he dared not hide anything and honestly explained the origin of the book, stating that he was currently the only one who knew about the ritual.
Upon hearing that it was found in the ruins of an ancient battlefield, the steward understood. If it was found there, then it wouldn't be surprising. Heaven knows how many powerful figures had perished in that place, so it's normal that some good things would be left behind.
Should I find some time to take the young master to look for items that can increase bloodline concentration?
However, after thinking about it, the butler shook his head. He decided to wait until the young master had more relatives and relatives before going to help search for him himself. If something happened to the young master over there, then it would be all over.
After telling the butler about the origin of the ceremony, Lina ran over and whispered to Hyuga Gen:
"Lord Hyuga, the ceremony is ready. Please come and preside over it."
The ceremony for meeting Hyuga Genji was already set up, but looking at Rena Rei in front of him, he felt a little uneasy. This woman looked very docile now, but who knew if she might do something underhanded.
Thinking of this, Hyuga Gen activated his newly awakened hypnotic ability and said to Rena in front of him:
"Look my eyes!"
Lina suddenly had a bad feeling. Just as she was about to dodge, she heard Hyuga Gen's voice, which was devoid of any warmth.
"If you haven't tampered with anything, then don't resist."
After receiving reassurance, Lina stopped pretending and quickly fell into a hypnotic state.
"Answer me, did you tamper with this ceremony? Was there any danger in presiding over it?"
Lina's eyes were somewhat vacant at this moment. Upon hearing Hyuga Gen's voice, she spoke without hesitation:
"No, I did it exactly as described in the book. After I finished, I even checked it twice to make sure there were no mistakes."
When he heard Lina say that she checked it twice, Hyuga Gen was a little surprised. This woman was so sensible.
