Chapter 218: Demonic Church

As Natalia heard his words, she suddenly raised her hand, conjured a small crystalline knife, and sends it towards Neil.

At that moment, Neil's lips twisted into a creepy smile, and he let out a creaky laugh.

The next instant, his olive skin began to turn eerie blackish, and his normal black eyes began to turn bloodshot. Not only that, but his body size also began to enlarge into a two-meter taller one!

There were traces of pure wickedness, and madness appeared on his face.

Charles even saw two bloody strange horns on his forehead and soon cast [Cryptic Analysis] skill on him.

At that time, Neil moved his muscular claw-like hand and directly blocked the ice knife.

"He is a Rank-3 [Demonized Man] Class Mystic. His physical strength also reached an Extraordinary Level." As Charles saw the information, he turned his gaze towards Natalia and warned her.

"Oh? A Demonic Church member? Why is he colluding with the Divine Order organization?" Natalia furrowed her brows and soon took a step forward.

The next instant, the whole underground hall turned colder.

Even Charles felt a suffocative feeling and got startled a little.

The next instant, Natalia's body disappeared from his right side and appeared in front of demonized Neil.

Then, she placed her hand on Neil's eerie black skin and muttered.

"Ice Seal."

Before Neil could even think, a cube of crystalline ice began to form around his body and completely covered him!

In a blink, Neil's body was sealed entirely inside an ice cube!

"You can extract his memories now," Natalia said with a confident smile on her face.

Meanwhile, Charles became stunned for a moment and asked in a surprised tone.

"How did you know about that spell?"

"I heard that your grandfather possesses a mind-reading skill. So, I guessed." An amusing smile appeared on her delicate face as she turned around and gestured him to do his work.

He stared at her for a moment and heaved a deep sigh.

'I should talk less from now on.' He muttered inwardly and cast [False Blink] spell.

The next instant, he disappeared from there and soon reappeared beside Natalia.

Then, he zeroed his gaze on the sealed Neil and cast [Knowledge Absorber] spell on him.

A moment later, an important piece of information appeared in his mind.

Unfortunately, it was information about a strange blood sacrificial ritual method, which made him frown slightly.

Charles then cast Rank-2 [Fire Seed] spell on the enemy with no other choice and started erasing his memories.

Simultaneously, he turned his gaze towards Natalia and spoke.

"It might take more than ten minutes to get all the important memories, Miss. Natalia." He paused for a moment and asked.

"Can you make a small hole towards his ears? If he didn't hear my questions, it will take more than two hours to replicate all the information."

He didn't dare to tell her that he was actually erasing his memories.

On the other hand, Natalia blinked her eyes twice and nodded her head.

Then, she closed her scarlet eyes for a moment and started manipulating the ice cube.

Within two seconds, a finger-sized hole appeared on both sides of the cube and directly linked to Neil's ears.

"Good," Charles said as he zeroed his gaze on Neil's bloodshot eyes and started asking questions.

"Who is this mysterious Elder?"

"What is his current location?"

"Can you tell me about his physical appearance?"

"What is your link with Demonic Church?"

"What is your link with Divine Order?"

At that moment, the real Charles received pieces of information about Elder in the Inner World.

'Elder, his original name is unknown and he has some tie with Amber Church. He is the one who controls all outer members of the Divine Order organization in the City of Iron and most probably has some high position in the organization. He is a man in his thirties, and his face always appears ageless, neither old nor young… His face also appears glad and sorrowful… Even Neil feels something's off about him. His hair is dark, and his eyes were grey… This mysterious guy always wore a brown cap over his head and emotionless…' The real Charles froze for a moment and soon furrowed his brows.

'Where did I hear about this familiar physical appearance before? Wait… It's the image of three culprits… The first one is Ivy… The second one is the skeleton. Then, the third culprit is Omen. He is a guy with an emotionless face.' At that moment, an illusionary portrait appeared in front of him.

As Charles watched that image, he was 90 percent sure that this mysterious 'Elder' guy was 'Omen'!

'I didn't expect such good news.' He muttered inwardly and soon turned his gaze towards the following information.

'Elder rarely comes to the city and always stays in the farmhouse near the Black Pond village…'

'Next is about Neil's link with Demonic Church… He is actually a High Priest of the Demonic Church and is responsible for sending human sacrifices, organs, blood, and even souls to their main branch. He worships a strange horned creature called 'Narmir.' The believers call this creature as Demon God of Chaos, Corruption, and Pleasure…'

'Neil has been secretly doing this job for more than two decades and has some ties with two high-class nobles and multiple low-class nobles like Baron Spencer. One is Duke Foster and the other one is Margrave Byron Griffon… What is more surprising thing is that some of the nobles are actually believers of Demonic Church.'

'He has no deep connection with Divine Order and only does some small works using his link with Nobles' circles…'

'Neil also knows a bit of abyssal tongue? What is that? Demon Language?' Charles got surprised for a moment and soon began to extract more information about this strange language.

Ten minutes later, Charles finally erased the [Fire Seed] from Neil's Inner World and relayed Elder's current location and physical features to Natalia.

As she heard his words, she became stunned inside.

"Even a Rank-4 [Mind Manipulator] would lose to you in terms of extracting information from the enemy." She paused for a moment and soon asked.

"But why are you asking questions from time to time?"

Meanwhile, Charles made a wry smile and responded.

"It's actually a trick to extract information quickly, Miss. Natalia." He deliberated for a moment and soon asked.

"Can I kill him?"

On the other hand, Natalia didn't put too much thought into his question and waved her hand.

"Go on."

Nodding his head, Charles cast the [Needle of Ember] spell and controlled it to move towards Neil's ear through the small hole.

Once the needle entered Neil's right side ear, he took two steps backward and broke it.

A second later, the needle broke into two and released a dense, chaotic fire into the demonized Neil's body!

As real Charles watched his clone's action, he was stupefied for a moment and soon facepalmed.

'My second consciousness still has flaws. He sometimes acts before thinking about the consequences. The enemy is a Demonized man, a kind of chaos creature and also worships chaos power. Wouldn't sending the 'Needle of Ember' spell into his body like giving him an energy potion?' He couldn't help but sigh in disappointment.

'I wonder when I able to create a perfect consciousness like Jessie.' He let out a bitter laugh and shook his head.

Meanwhile, the clone Charles noticed that the crystalline ice cube was starting to shake and soon realized his mistake.

He then hurriedly placed his finger towards the hole and began to send greenish-blue flame into it!

The greenish-blue flame soon entered the demonized man's body and began to purify the evilness and chaos.

As he poured more fire into the ice cube, a strange reaction started to occur.

Chaos and soul power began to collide against each other and soon started to retaliate fiercely.

Both fires began to collide and began to destroy Neil's body from inside!

A few seconds later, a bang sound echoed inside the cube, and soon everything went silent.

"You truly are reckless sometimes," Natalia glared at Charles for a moment and turned around before walking towards the exit.

At that moment, the corner of her lips rose upward and formed into an amusing smile.
