Chapter 204: Strange Gem



Chapter 204: Strange Gem

A few minutes later, a group of 10 masked assassins knelt in the reception hall and were trembling all over.

"Remove your masks." Charles stood in front of them and ordered coldly.

Like timid rats, all of them nodded their heads stiffly and removed the masks.

Meanwhile, Charles stared at them for a while and cast [Knowledge Absorber] spell on them.

After a few seconds, a look of disappointment appeared on his face.

\'These guys knew nothing about the organization\'s exact location or any other information about it. Hmm, it seems someone altered their memories before they came here.\' His brows furrowed.

At that moment, a few elite guards of Elliott\'s family entered the reception hall and became stunned at the scene in front of them.

On the other hand, Charles noticed multiple injuries on their bodies and heaved a heavy sigh.

"Come in." He ordered.

Meanwhile, the guards hurriedly ran towards him and bowed their heads.

"What are your orders, My Lord?" A brown-haired man in his sliver armor raised his head, looked at Charles with awe and respect, and asked.

"Tie them up and bring these guys to the yard. I will execute them personally."

Saying so, Charles conjured greenish-blue fireballs and tossed at all those guards.

Upon noticing the mysterious fireballs, all of them shrunk back in fear and anxiety, and some even shouted in shock.

But soon, they relaxed when they noticed that those fireballs were healing their injuries!

In a few seconds, all the injuries on their bodies began to heal and soon disappeared from their eyes.

Before they could wake up from the shock, Charles waved his hand and asked.

"Are there any casualties on our side?"

At that moment, the brown-haired elite guard hurriedly shook his head and responded politely.

"Due to Miss. Jessie\'s arrival, we manage to fend off the first group of assassins, My Lord." He paused for a moment and soon added with a hesitant look on his face.

"But there are quite a few kids who got injured during the previous fight and are currently being taken to Day and Night Church."

As he heard those words, Charles raised his eyebrows and spoke in a calm tone.

"Hmm? Send someone and tell them to come back with the injured kids. The Day and Night Church Bishop might not have enough healing potions with him. I will heal them."

"Yes, My Lord." The brown-haired man widened his close-set auburn eyes and nodded his head.

Then, he turned to his right side and gestured a leather armored guard to go first.

Then, he gave a few orders to other elite guards and took out tens of iron handcuffs from his void pouch before passing it to them.

Under his order, all the soldiers cuffed the assassins\' hands and brought them out of the mansion building one by one.

Charles also followed after them and soon reached the greenish yard.

At that moment, the other soldier also returned with many injured kids and a few soldiers and led them in his direction.

Charles first healed the kids\' injuries for the next few minutes and told them to get inside the building.

Then, he ordered the guards to move the assassins to a non-grassy place, executed them one by one, and earned a total of 63,500 Exp points.

Although he could have sent them to the security department and told them to do it officially, he didn\'t think that was necessary.

From their earlier actions, all of them came here intending to kidnap Rhea and others!

It was truly a daring action!

Whoever behind this action must face the consequences!

\'But I\'m not strong enough. If not for being a \'lucky one,\' I might have defeated by three weak Rank-4 Mystics and died a while ago.\' He felt a strong sense of urgency in his heart.

\'I need to comprehend the remaining spell models during the next three years, and then focus my attention on completing the \'Soul Heal\' spell model. Then, I also need to farm Exp constantly in the Fire Plane and save them as a backup.\' He thought inwardly and told the guards to take care of everything.

Then, his whole body bathed in crimson flame and disappeared from there.

A second later, he reappeared in his room on the third floor, did a short chanting, and went to the Fire Elemental Plane.

Two minutes later, he returned with kids, erased their memories about the fire-elemental plane, and told them to take care of everything.

Then, he went towards the cotton bed, sat on it while closing his eyes, and entered the Inner World.

A moment later, a 70-year-old man in a black suit appeared in front of the lava pool and saw \'clone Charles\' was standing next to him while holding a strange \'greenish-blue gem\' on his illusionary palm!

The reason Charles send his disciples out of his room was mainly to check this strange gem!

He used his [Sleight of Mystery Hand] skill, picked the gem from his hand, and placed it on his palm.

Then, he tried to use [Cryptic Analysis] skill on it, but failed miserably!

"Did Eric\'s consciousness leave anything else?" He asked with a grim look.

"No. The system sent out a fierce invisible ripple wave and erased everything other than this gem." The \'clone Charles\' replied in an instant.

\'Why didn\'t the system cube remove this gem from my Inner World?\' A frown appeared on his illusionary wrinkled forehead.

\'Did it not consider it as a threat? Why did Eric invade my Inner World with this strange gem?\' He felt confused for a moment and tried to take this gem out of his Inner World.

But to his shock, he couldn\'t!

\'This is indeed a big problem… Wait… Eric invaded my Inner World when Vivian tries to use the Spirit Hex curse… Could there be some link between the two? But why didn\'t I receive any information about it when I stole Vivian\'s memory?\' He frowned.

\'This thing might be a dangerous gem… Eric might have thought of using this gem to harm my Inner World, but the system interfered and ruined his plan… But man, who would have thought the power of \'Luck\' could play such a crucial role at that moment. If he hadn\'t invaded my Inner World, I might have forced into a corner position…\' He let out a deep sigh and tossed it back to \'clone Charles.\'

"Keep it near the system cube and tell me if any anomaly occurs." He said in a calm tone, looked up at the sky, and focused his attention on the spell models.

At that moment, a thought crossed his mind.

"Charles, can you fly?" He asked his \'clone.\'

"Yes," An instant response came out of his clone.

"Follow me." Saying so, he waved his hand and flew towards the sky.

Meanwhile, \'clone Charles\' also cast [Red Wings] spell and followed after him.

Within a few minutes, both appeared in front of the seven spell models, and soon Charles spoke.

"Try to focus on the [Soul Heal] spell model and try to comprehend it."

Upon hearing his words, \'clone Charles\' nodded his head, appeared near the greenish-blue spell model, and focused his full attention on it with his deep-blue eyes.

A few minutes later, a rare smile appeared on his face.

"I can comprehend them." He said with a surprised look on his face.

\'That\'s good.\' Charles nodded his head while raising his hand, pointed his finger at the [Sun\'s Shell] spell model, and spoke.

"Try that one."

On the other hand, the \'clone Charles\' nodded his head, moved next to the spell model, and started to comprehend.

But after a few seconds, confusion appeared on his face.

"Something is wrong. I couldn\'t comprehend this spell model."

Meanwhile, Charles nodded his head in understanding and spoke.

"This might have something to do with the strange \'Soul Fire\' which I gave you in the form of \'Love\' and \'Care\' emotions. Although you could use other fire spells, the effects might not be as good as this one. You might only exhibit 70% of the spell power. Hmm, concentrate on this \'Soul Heal\' spell model and comprehend it completely. We will talk about this issue later." Saying so, he turned into pure crimson fire and left the Inner World.
