"You must be the owner of this house. It is really rude to come here without permission."
"I'm just here to"
"To bring back the girl named Benika?" The man with uncoordinated white hair in front of Harry admitted Betty's existence straightforwardly.
"That's right," Harry replied.
"She slept peacefully in that room." Pointing to a closed door behind him, the man gave him a definite answer.
Harry took a long breath and tried to keep his voice calm.
"So, can I take her away now? I think her family must be worried. As for the various rude behaviors I did this time, I will definitely come to the door in person to apologize and make amends some other day." Harry said.
The man opposite shook his head slightly and smiled.
Under the flickering candlelight in the room, his smile contained quite complex emotions and seemed so meaningful.
Facing such a smile, Harry was speechless for a moment.
The location he is currently in is a room that is nearly twenty times larger than an ordinary room and has an extremely high ceiling. Surrounding the white limestone walls is an escalator that spirals upward, like a long snake that winds up, winding through dozens of portals leading to this room.
The overly huge room does not have much decoration, and even the walls still retain the original appearance of the building materials. Except for an altar-like arrangement behind the person opposite Harry, there were only dozens of candlesticks scattered with long shadows trailing behind them on the dark red carpet that covered the entire room.
Although every time Harry reached a fork in the road, lights would turn on to guide him, but there were no modern lighting fixtures in the room. However, with the dots of skylight leaking from the translucent dome of the roof and the candlelight on the candlesticks, Harry could still carefully take in every detail of the room.
And what Harry observed most carefully was the white-haired man standing in front of him.
Judging from the luxurious and decent clothing and calm and elegant demeanor, the owner of this villa undoubtedly has a high social status. This kind of noble temperament developed by being admired by everyone for a long time is now lacking whether it is in Harry himself, Shadowfang or Ouyang Yang who is always lazy on weekdays.
Among the people Harry is familiar with now, only two people, Ming Yuexing and Zi Cangyuan, have shown similar aristocratic temperament in their actions.
"This man has a very high social status." Harry came to a conclusion in his mind.
¡°And it¡¯s very strong.¡±
His eyes rested on the slightly thin but powerful body of the man in front of him for a moment, and Harry's attention naturally fell on his hands.
"There should be some kind of sharp weapon hidden inside the short ivory staff in his hand. The most likely one isa staff sword. And the two gold armor sets studded with gems on the little fingers of both hands are not so much In order to protect the decorations worn on the nails, they might as well be two sharp hidden weapons.¡±
"Where possible, I will try to avoid conflict with him." Harry quickly assessed the strength of the man in front of him.
"You were able to follow the instructions and come here without any doubt. This kind of frankness is really likeable. But unfortunately, I can't agree to your request." After a moment of silence, the man finally made a reply.
"I heard Betty say that she was helping someone make fakes to prevent thieves from stealing. In order to keep her promise in the contract, Betty hid her employer's name, situation, and the details of the commission, even from her closest family members. None of them were disclosed. But your people tried to kidnap her brother and kill her family as well. Is this the etiquette that a gentleman of your status should have?" Harry tried to use a gentle tone. questioned.
"That incompetent guy Berry really said something." The man murmured to himself.
"Although my plan was not to let this genius girl survive from the beginning, I still feel very sorry for deceiving such an interesting girl." After saying this, the man couldn't help but smile.
¡°In order to express my apology, I will allow you to understand me to the greatest extent and give you the opportunity for a fair duel that another man has been waiting for.¡± He said.
"Can't we avoid conflict? Whatever Betty has done for you, I guarantee that she will keep it secret in accordance with the rules and will not leak it to anyone." Feeling the killing intent emanating from the man opposite, Harry made a final effort.
The man opposite smiled again and gently ran his hands through his hair. As the fingers stroked, the personThe white hair on her head has returned to jet black color. At this moment, the incongruous feeling he gave Harry has completely disappeared. Except for the occasional look in his eyes that is full of boredom after seeing all the vicissitudes of life, he now looks like a handsome young man in a troubled world.
He lightly scratched the palm of his hand with the gold armor worn on his little finger. The blood, which appeared dark black under the candlelight, quickly gushed out along the wound in the palm, but was immediately absorbed by the surrounding skin. In less than a few seconds, the wound had disappeared.
"Vampire!? No! It's pure blood!?" Harry's body shook violently. Although the official hunt for purebloods has been terminated in the Holy Catholic Church for nearly a thousand years. But compared to Goldenfinger Jack Lane, Harry, who had been in the Thirteenth Holy Catholic Special Forces, still had a much more detailed understanding of the vampires. This kind of healing method, in which even the blood that flows out can be recycled, is something that only purebloods can achieve.
The man smiled and nodded, moved a few steps to his left, and gave way to the altar behind him. A long scarlet tray is shown in place of the sacrificial offerings on the altar.
In this vermilion tray, whose edges are somewhat damaged due to its age, three crosses shine with a faint silver light under the dim candlelight. Different from the simple reflection of candlelight, each of these three crosses is a small luminous body. The holy light emanating from the silver glow reminded Harry of the small church where he spent his unforgettable childhood and missed it deeply in his dreams.
¡°The Skull Cross!!!¡±
"Youyou are"
"Johnny Lapuyan Defrosas!"
"You are still alive!?"
Even with Harry¡¯s calm skills developed through years of rigorous training, he couldn¡¯t help but lose control the moment he saw the three crosses in front of him.
That is not an ordinary cross, but is directly worn by more than a dozen apostolic emissaries in the Holy Catholic Church, whose status is only lower than the pope and at the same level as the cardinal archbishop. It almost represents the identity symbol of the Holy Catholic Church's highest authority in the secular world.
This kind of skull cross, which has great significance in both religion and secular life, is an important thing that must not be lost for every holy messenger who wears it. However, at some time just over 150 years ago, the Holy Catholic Church lost three such crosses in succession. Those who wore them were lost with the cross
And their lives.
At that time, the person who killed several holy messengers one by one was a pure-blood named Johnny Lapuyan Defrosas. Not only the holy envoys of the Holy Catholic Church, but also dozens of diocesan heads in various regions were also killed. Suddenly, everyone in the religious group's senior figures was in danger.
The name Johnny Lapuyan Defrosas had become one of the most terrifying nightmares in the Catholic Church at that time.
It was not until later that the special detachment of the Holy Catholic Church was dispatched. The Pope personally presided over the baptism into Christianity at the age of three. At the age of 13, he was already the captain of the special detachment of the Holy Catholic Church. John Paul VII, who later succeeded the Holy Catholic Pope, personally took action. , was able to put an end to this crime.
Although the reason why Johnny Lapuyan Defrosas had such a deep hatred for the Holy Catholic Church and committed such atrocious crimes has been kept secret within the order, even Harry Wright could not know the details. But that incident directly led to the retirement of the then-reigning Pope, and let Harry know that there were indeed legendary pure-bloods in this world.
Now, finally, a pureblood stood in front of him, and his name turned out to be
Johnny Lapuyan Defrosas.
