Gabriel wore his gloves once again before leaving the shower. He dried his body using a simple spell and wore his clothes.
He could also see a similar mask to what he wore before lying on the bed. It was as if someone left it here for him. Since he hadn't reminded anyone about it yet, it was clear that this was the doing of Avilia.
"That girl..."
He walked up to the bed and picked up the mask, wearing it directly. He was about to leave, but stopped right before the door, remembering something.
Even though he had a mask, he had no illusion anymore. Izen had already warned the Head Priests about him, telling him about his Mark and gloves to check for. If he didn't have an illusion, the Head Priests could clearly see his gloves which wasn't ideal.He stood before the door, opening it lightly. After opening the door, he placed his hands behind him and stood like a surreal expert as if he knew that the Head Priests were right outside.
Just as he expected, the Head Priests were in the hallway, waiting for him. They were already informed about Gabriel waking up.
"You're up. Good." Qian greeted Gabriel. "Come, we will give you a tour of the Church and show you other important places today. After that-"
"Not yet." Gabriel didn't leave the room. "I have to train myself first and learn the new spells. In the meantime, I won't be leaving this room. I want you to make all the arrangements. No one other than Avilia is allowed inside this room. Do you understand?"
Qian and the other Head Priests looked at each other but they didn't question it. What could be better than Gabriel wanting to immerse himself in his training. The faster he did so, the faster he could be ready for his meeting with the other Holy Lords.
"We will do as the Lord asked." The Head Priests respectfully stated as they stepped back.
"One more thing." The Head Priests were about to leave but were stopped by Gabriel. "Where is Avilia? Where did she go?""Lady Avilia left the Church not long ago."
"Did she tell you where she went and when she'll be returning?" Gabriel asked. It was surprising that Avilia left the Church without telling him at all.
"She didn't say anything. However, from what I know, it looks like she already left the City. We don't know when she'll be back," Qian answered. "Maybe she had something to do at the Church of Summoning? We'll make sure to bring her here when she returns."
Gabriel nodded. "Alright. You can leave. Make sure to remember what I told you. In the next few days, no one is allowed to enter this place. Even if a Holy Lord comes, find some excuse and don't disturb me."
"We have become an expert in doing that throughout the years. Holy Lord don't have to worry about anything." Qian smirked as he retreated. They had done nothing more than finding excuses ever since their Holy Lord died last time after all.
After the Head Priests left, Gabriel closed the door and took off the mask, tossing it on the bed. He locked the door from inside. He brought a defensive artefact to make sure no one could enter without him finding out.
It was only after making sure that everything was set, he walked to the bed. He had received the Holy Grimoire of Light and the approval. Now all that was left for him to do was to see just what kind of spells he received.
According to the stories he heard, a Holy Grimoire usually gave different spells to every new Generation of a Holy Lord. It was rarely the case of a spell being repeated. Moreover the spells that they received were supposed to be the spells that could help them there most. That was what raised Gabriel's expectations from it.
Right now, the biggest problem for Gabriel was that he needed something to hide his identity before Izen or other Holy Lords. Avilia's summoned beast's ability was comparable to a Head Priest. It couldn't fool a Holy Lord.
The only thing that could fool a Holy Lord was a powerful spell of another Holy Lord! That's what he wanted the most from his Grimoire!
The Element of Light was said to be the most versatile element in this world. It was also the spell which had great illusion abilities. That's also why this element was used in most of the clone spells in battle against him by the Ninth Holy Lord and Izen.
"I hope you won't disappoint me." Gabriel glanced at the bracelet on his left hand. "I went through a lot to get your control after all."
His left bracelet transformed into the purest of light which floated before him. The sphere of light started taking a rectangular shape before finally ending up as the Holy Grimoire of Light.
Gabriel already had lots of experience of handling a Holy Grimoire. He already knew quite a lot about one. Currently, he didn't even need to touch the Grimoire. The Holy Grimoire opened on its own, revealing the first page.
Just the Holy Grimoire of Necromancy, the first page of the Holy Grimoire of Light didn't have a spell either. Instead, it had a quote...
Gabriel read the quote word by word. "No Darkness can dim the light that shines from within..."
"Strange. This quote seems so simple yet so complicated at the same time..."
He didn't think too much about it and turned to the next page.
One by one, he kept turning the pages and learning the spells that he received. Most of the spells in the first few pages were mid tier spells which didn't impress Gabriel much. Those spells were nothing before the spells that he learned from Cylix.
Despite being unimpressed, he learned all the spells. It was only the later spells that truly impressed Gabriel.
There were five High Tier Spells in the Grimoire and one Origin Tier spells as well! The Origin Tier Spell made Gabriel's eyes lit up. The spell tier was the same as his Army of Undead.
Amongst the five High Tier Spells, there were two which he was really impressed by. He knew that they could really come in handy in the future to achieve his goals. However, what he was really happy about was the Origin Tier Spell! That was what he was looking for!
"Rebirth of Light!" The spell's name itself was something that Gabriel never heard before. However, it was still quite an interesting spell from what he was able to grasp.
