Deep beneath the manor.

The once clear pool had become turbid and foul-smelling, and Abraham, bare from the waist up, had his lower half transformed into thick, twisted tentacles.

Every so often, he would drag a corpse out of the murky waters and then drain it dry.

He had grown taller since his arrival; he now resembled a fourteen- or fifteen-year-old boy in appearance.

His eyes were tightly closed, and his body was covered in large, bulging Blood Vessels. Strange energies swirled around him, and between his chest and abdomen, a pale fire flickered in and out of existence with his breath.

“Master, they are here.”

A beautiful woman with long legs descended the stone stairs slowly; she was draped in a sheer cyan fabric, but clearly, Abraham paid no attention to such beauty.

He opened his eyes.

A fierce light flashed and vanished, the water churned but soon returned to normal. Abraham’s body sank slightly, hiding his twisted lower half in the water.

Footsteps echoed from the stairs, one steady, one Light.

The first to enter was a burly man over 2.1 meters tall with a full beard tied together under his jaw, his towering muscles nearly bursting the seams of his shirt.

He almost completely blocked the passage with his bulk.

“It seems you’ve been doing well lately, William.”

Abraham looked down at his own body, the gloom in his eyes fleeting.

“My dear master, what has happened to you?” a somewhat ingratiating voice followed as a handsome man in a smart casual suit emerged from behind William.

His skin was slightly pale, and his medium-length hair was tied back, with every detail from his hair to his fingernails meticulously groomed.

“Lusfan.”

Abraham let out a cold laugh.

“If I hadn’t told you where to find that thing, would you have chosen not to appear?”

“How could that be, my dear master? Are you questioning my loyalty to you?”

The man named Lusfan feigned being hurt.

“Without you, I wouldn’t have the life I have today, nor would there be such a thing as the Three Holy Spirits. It was you who guided me by hand and helped me onto the path of the Transcendent.”

Lusfan seemed undisturbed by the stench of the pool, quickly stepping forward a few steps.

“Stand there!”

Upon hearing Abraham’s sharp command, Lusfan obediently halted.

“Help me find someone.”

Upon his words, the woman standing aside handed two pieces of paper to William and Lusfan.

A glint appeared in Lusfan’s eyes.

“Respected master, is that object on him?”

Abraham nodded.

“It’s a domino about the size of a palm. He used that thing to Summon a woman like a Monster Spirit.”

Abraham clenched his teeth lightly, If it weren’t for that woman buying me time, how could I have…

“That domino has an aura that is of the same origin as the Arm Bone you obtained; they must belong to the same person.”

“Find him, and you’ll find the rest of the parts, and you might even use it as a breakthrough point.”

He glanced at Lusfan.

“To fully rid yourself of your human identity.”

“Thank you, my great master.”

Lusfan bowed respectfully.

All the while, William, standing by his side, had remained silent.

“As for you, William…”

“What reward do you wish to receive?”

William pondered for a moment, forcing a single word from his throat.

“Freedom.”

After he spoke, the entire room fell silent, and the waters Abraham bathed in began to roil violently, as if foreshadowing a certain mood.

After a long while.

“Good, very good.”

He glanced at Lusfan.

“Is this also your wish?”

“How could it be?” A faint smile squeezed itself onto Lusfan’s face.

“Being able to serve the master eternally is the dream of my life.”

“Oh?”

Abraham’s face showed a mocking smile, and something seemed to be writhing in the dark waters beneath him as his body slowly moved forward.

Step by step, he walked to the shore.

The twisted tentacles retracted into his body, and by the time Abraham reached Lusfan, he had already taken on the appearance of a normal human.

Clenching his fist tightly, Lusfan then painfully knelt on the ground.

“Not content with staying around Bordeaux, but insisting on making a move to Europe, do you really think I’m unaware of what you two are thinking?”

He laid a hand gently on Lusfan’s shoulder, a very common gesture that made Lusfan tremble all over.

“Bring this young man back to me. I want him alive. Succeed in this task, and I will fulfill your wish.”

He leaned in a little closer.

“Lusfan, you’ve always been smart.”

“Don’t disappoint me this time.”

Lusfan sweated profusely, bowing his back and pressing his forehead to the ground.

“Rest assured, my master.”

Watching the two leave, Abraham fully submerged his body in the pool, the loss of a portion of Pale Blood having consequences more severe than he had imagined.

It wasn’t just the loss of power that mattered, but more importantly, even with full recovery, Abraham was forcibly stuck at a special transitional stage.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t advance any further.

This was unacceptable to him.

Meanwhile, William and Lusfan, who had left the manor, had also boarded the car parked at the entrance.

“You idiot, do you want to kill me?”

“That thing is a monster, it can’t be reasoned with. Who would have known that it could leave that cage!”

Lusfan abandoned the elegance and submission he had just shown in the basement. His face turned ashen, and he growled, suppressing the fury in his heart.

“After being kept like a dog for so many years, I’ve had enough,” William said in a rough voice.

“Without freedom, I’d rather die!”

“Heh.”

Lusfan let out a cold laugh, his face full of scorn as he looked at his companion.

“For freedom, you’d rather die?”

“If that were true, it would have been you, not Ceylon, who tried to rebel ten years ago.”

“To escape that man’s control, Ceylon died, and yet you are still alive and well.”

“You have wine to drink, women to play with, and a longevity ordinary people can’t even dream of. All you’ve lost is a bit of freedom.”

“It was you who chose this path in the first place!”

“Crack!”

Angry, William twisted the steering wheel so hard it notched.

“Lusfan, do you really want to be that guy’s pet?”

Lusfan closed his eyes and took a long breath.

“We know the price of betraying him, so we mustn’t provoke him before we are completely prepared.”

After pondering for a moment, he continued, “I already have a bit of a plan.”

“Although I’m not clear about what happened, this young man is evidently very important to him.”

“Don’t inform him once we find the young man. There might be something on him that we desperately need!”

While Abraham and his people were secretly searching for Roger’s whereabouts, Roger himself was worrying.

The date with the Mountain Woman… was proving to be a bit difficult.
