The prophet staggered as his face turned sour, as if he was about to fall.
However, the crowd was prepared for this.
Two people walked out from the crowd, one on the left and one on the right, and helped the prophet to a chair so that he could sit down and lean against it.
Everyone held their breaths as they looked at the prophet.
Especially Li Jiajia.
She almost became a prophet after all.
However, at the moment, the young girl felt lucky.
'Eating hair, nails, and blood … I'd rather die!
Thank goodness I became a chef! '
The young girl thought as her scalp went numb.
Kieran, on the other hand, looked at the prophet with interest.
It wasn't the first time he saw someone like this.
Nikorei, the God of Earth, and Lady Thorn were similar.
However, both of them were much stronger than the prophet before him. At least, Kieran never saw Nikorei or Lady Thorn eat hair, nails, and blood when they prophesied.
Both of them looked at the result from a higher perspective.
Kieran didn't know much about Nikorei.
Lady Thorn, on the other hand, Kieran was dragged into the river of fate by Nikorei.
"One is looking down from a high place.
The other is … "
"Jumping up to look outside the wall?"
Kieran commented.
The pros and cons of the two were easily distinguishable.
The former was extremely easy and could see the whole situation with a single glance, but the latter had to give it his all. Not only did he have to jump high enough, but he also had to look at the wall not too high.
As a prophet acknowledged by the Herders and all the other families, the prophet was quite strong.
He obviously had the strength.
The situation lasted for a minute before he calmed down. Although his face was a little pale, it was still normal and he could speak freely.
"I saw something."
Not much.
"But it can prove that Lord Victor was framed!"
The prophet's voice was not loud, but in the silence, everyone could hear him clearly.
"Framed?"
"It wasn't his plan?"
"It wasn't him who stole Ring City's treasure vault?"
The crowd was discussing fervently, even the young lady of Song Shi Family was surprised.
Because, according to Kieran's deduction, there was no one else but Victor.
What was going on?
The young lady of Song Shi Family looked at Kieran.
Kieran shook his head, indicating that he did not know.
I really don't know how this prophet came to this conclusion.
Did he really see something?
Or was he just making things up?
Judging from how the Herders and the other families trusted him, the Herders were definitely more trustworthy, but … everything was done by Kieran.
Could it be that the other party saw … him?
Kieran's expression didn't change in the slightest as he calmly looked at the prophet.
The prophet continued to speak as if nothing had happened.
"Lord Victor did not rob Ring City's treasury, nor did he rob the three kings' private treasuries."
"All of this was arranged by an unknown mastermind."
"They did it discreetly …"
"I can only see this bit. I can't see the rest clearly."
After that, the prophet remained silent.
The surrounding people also fell silent.
A while later, some of the people, Inhumans, and monsters left quietly.
They chased after Victor for the riches of Ring City, and now that the riches were gone, there was no reason for them to stay.
The only difference was that some of the people and monsters left quietly, while some apologized to Victor before they left.
Song Shi Family, for example.
"I'm sorry, Lord Victor.
We shouldn't have doubted you. "
Mian Yi, the butler, expressed his guilt to Victor.
Victor, on the other hand, waved his hand calmly.
He had lost his memories, so he couldn't remember what happened. As long as he could live a peaceful life without danger, it would be the best.
Since he got what he wanted, what more could he ask for?
If he could find his memories, it would be even better!
Viktor glanced at Kieran confidently.
Song Shi Family's young lady then moved to Kieran's side.
"You seem to be stronger!
Did you awaken some of your abilities or memories? "
Song Shi asked.
Kieran didn't answer, looking at her calmly.
This caused the young lady to twist her body unnaturally.
She felt like an invisible hand was trying to grab the back of her neck.
It was unbearable.
It even made her feel ashamed.
"Hmph!
You are still as annoying after awakening your abilities.
"You should learn from your brother. Otherwise, no lady would like you like this."
With a cold grunt, Song Shi Family's young lady strode out.
Mian Yi expressed his apologies once more before he quickly followed up.
As the biggest family in the surrounding cities, Song Shi Family's departure was a very strong signal. Those who were unwilling to give up and were still watching from the sidelines finally left.
Soon, the restaurant was left with Kieran, Anna, Huai Cuike, and the prophet.
Kieran looked at Anna, Huai Cuike, and the prophet.
It seemed like they still had something to say.
"Are there any secrets?"
Anna asked.
"No."
The prophet shook his head.
"Just like what you said?"
Anna asked again.
"Em.
It's just like what you said. "
The prophet nodded.
Huu!
Anna heaved a long sigh of relief. His face was filled with joy. He strode in front of Victor and said straightforwardly, "Don't worry about it.
"That's great, Victor!"
It really wasn't you!
Don't worry, I'll get someone to restore your reputation. "
The sincerity in Anna's words infected Victor, even though he didn't care at the moment, he showed a smile.
Anna, Huai Cuike, and the prophet then left.
"Shouldn't you pay extra compensation for delaying someone else's business?"
Li Jiajia, who saw Anna off, said in a rude tone.
"I think it's included in this, right?"
Victor pointed at the box.
"This is yesterday's compensation, not today's."
Li Jiajia said in a rude tone.
Right nodded in agreement.
"That's right.
Those bastards messed up this place, we have to clean it up before we can open for business.
I don't want our customers to be tainted by something bad. "
You expressed her stance with a righteous tone.
Victor scratched his head.
Even though he had lost his memories, he felt like he should shut up.
Unconsciously, Victor looked at Kieran, hoping to ask what Kieran wanted to do today, but after a while, he realized Kieran had somehow disappeared.
"Where did His Highness go?"
Victor asked.
"The boss doesn't care about things most of the time.
Other than sitting here at night, teacher is in charge of everything else.
We need to clean up this place and then go buy some ingredients — teacher and the suppliers have agreed that even if it's afternoon, they will keep the freshest ingredients for us. "
Li Jiajia said naturally.
Victor, who just joined, and Right nodded repeatedly.
…
Huai Cuike was in the driver's seat, Anna in the front passenger seat, and the prophet in the back.
Cold sweat broke out on the prophet's forehead.
His hands were shaking uncontrollably.
Why?
Why was there such a terrifying existence in this abandoned land?
How could such a terrifying existence appear in the Forsaken Land?
He asked himself unconsciously.
Each time he asked, his heart would throb.
The pain spread uncontrollably.
He felt like he was suffocating.
A sense of warmth appeared beside him. The prophet looked up at Anna, who was glowing softly in his hand, his face showing gratitude.
"T-Thank you."
The prophet said with difficulty.
"This is what we should do.
After all, your prophecy has saved us from a lot of disputes.
"Similarly, we need to consider your health."
Anna said with a serious face.
As one of the higher ranks of the Herders, Anna knew how much the prophet consumed and how much he had to bear for each prophecy and divination.
If it wasn't for the importance of Victor's matter, he wouldn't have asked for Anna's help.
He wasn't a person who disregarded the lives of others.
Even if he paid enough, he wouldn't.
"Thank you."
The prophet thanked Anna again, but he hid the words in his heart in the shadow of his words.
When Anna turned to the front, the prophet slightly lowered his head, hiding the guilt in his heart.
It wasn't that he didn't want to tell.
He couldn't tell.
Once he did …
Not only would he die, anyone who heard the news wouldn't be able to live.
"Drop me off at the church.
I need to rest at an old friend's place. "
The prophet said.
"Okay."
Huai Cuike nodded, turned around, and left.
There were quite a number of churches in Ai City, but the only one that the prophet mentioned was the oldest one, which was managed by an unknown elder.
The elder wasn't a priest, nor a priest, but something like an apostle.
The Herders investigated the elder multiple times, and after making sure the elder wasn't dangerous, they allowed the elder to move around freely.
The car drove into a secluded alley.
A building with a stone exterior entered Huai Cuike's sight.
It wasn't a church with a pointed roof or a dome.
It was a building with a flat roof, similar to a house.
In fact, other than the candles and statues that never went out, the building had nothing to do with a church.
The prophet got off the car after rejecting Anna's help.
"I'll deposit the payment into your account right away.
Is there anything else I can help you with? "
Anna asked politely.
"Lord Anna, I suggest you go to the northern outskirts of Ai City.
The person you've been looking for recently is there. "
The prophet said with a smile.
"The person I've been looking for?"
Anna was stunned for a while before he asked in delight.
"Are you my attending physician?"
Thank you so much! "
After the prophet nodded, Anna thanked him and got into the car, signaling Huai Cuike to go to the northern outskirts.
The prophet sighed at the direction where the car went off to. He hastened his steps and went into the church.
His old friend was testing the only divine pedestal, and when he saw the prophet, his old face showed a sense of astonishment, followed by a sense of despair.
"You noticed it too?"
The apostle asked.
"Mm.
That's why I'm here. "
The prophet said.
"You shouldn't have come."
The Ascetic Monk put down his cleaning tools and walked to the front of the altar. He knelt down and prayed in a low voice several times. Then he raised his hand and pointed at the statue. Then he pointed at the extinguished candle hidden among the many candles.
The prophet immediately saw the cracked statue and the candlelight that should not have been extinguished.
The apostle's face changed drastically.
He was even out of his wits.
"What should I do?
What should I do? "
The prophet asked softly.
He was asking the apostle and also himself.
However, neither the apostle nor the prophet had an answer, all he could do was look at the statue.
It was a slightly abstract, humanoid statue.
It should have a sense of solemn beauty, but the crack in the middle that went through the whole statue made the solemn beauty vanish.
In fact, the last bit of magic had also disappeared.
"Do you see him, her, it or him?"
The apostle asked.
"Mm.
Hell, abyss, and the presence of the dead mixed together.
Demon Lord, Devil Duke, Death Dominator, all of them are possible.
But … "
"I see something else!"
The prophet's body shivered when he said that.
"Something else?"
The apostle turned around.
"A monster of darkness without boundaries!
"The power to make the world fall into evil!"
The unpredictable fate that is entangled with death! "
The prophet shivered after each word, and when he finished, he looked like he was going to crumble. The apostle placed his hand on the prophet's head and prayed softly.
A while later, the prophet came back to his senses.
"It shouldn't exist at this time!
The old Gods have decayed.
The Outer Gods have left.
This place has lost all attraction!
Why is it here? "
The prophet screamed.
"Maybe this is fate?"
"Calm down.
We can't stop it, we don't have the power to interfere, so let us wait patiently. "
"Look at the end?
Or some other beginning? "
The apostle said calmly.
However, his calmness was interrupted by a cold laugh.
"I don't want to know what is the end or the beginning!
I just want to know … "
"Where did my treasure go?"
King Liao, dressed in black, luxurious clothes and a crown with a dazzling gemstone embedded on it, strode into the small chapel.
Just as they were about to enter the chapel, the Ascetic, who had been indifferent all this time, stood up.
"Leave this place, blasphemer!"
Following his shout, mystical runes appeared on the walls of the chapel, glowing in gold and forming a formless energy, rejecting King Liao's entry.
"Hmph!
If that stone wasn't broken, you might still be able to stop me.
But now, it's broken!
What do you have to stop me? "
King Liao said in disdain.
Then, he saw the pale apostle and the prophet, who had just calmed down, break down and burst into tears again.
King Liao's disdain grew.
He knew this place was bad, but he didn't expect it to deteriorate to this extent.
However, soon enough, King Liao noticed something wasn't right.
The ascetic with the pale face had been looking behind him all this time.
Although the prophet who broke down and burst into tears was covering his face, his line of sight should be behind him.
How was this possible?
King Liao's senses told him that there was no one behind him!
The protection talisman that King Qi gave him didn't warn him either!
A lie!
A childish lie!
King Liao thought.
However, he couldn't help but turn his head back.
He didn't see what was behind him.
Because a slender and powerful palm was pressed on its face.
Fuuu!
The charged up red flame exploded from the palm and instantly annihilated King Liao.
Kieran slowly walked forward, brushing past the burning King Liao.
The golden runes shattered when Kieran stepped forward.
He walked up to the ascetic with a pale face and the prophet, who was covering his face and crying loudly, and asked,
"What are you two afraid of?"
