Chapter 352 - 352 Pseudo-Holy Spirit Protection
352 Pseudo-Holy Spirit Protection
No matter what, based on what he has said, it’s definitely not wrong to take him down first. William thought as he looked at the other party’s serious expression.
If it was as he had guessed, the other party was from another timeline. The other party must have been facing Remides and the others before saying that ‘we have to kill this Judge.’
This was definitely enough reason for him to attack.
William made his move.
Frost spell, Declaration.
Due to the influence of the Ironstone Oath, William couldn’t cast Divine Realm spells that consumed massive amounts of mana unless he used the Holy Spirit Disc. However, the Holy Spirit Disc in his hand was destined to be used in the battle with the Lady of Starvation. He didn’t plan on wasting any valuable resources to deal with the person in front of him.
Therefore, he used Demon Spear that was certain to hit.
The pure ice crystal spear took form in William’s hand. He didn’t choose to use a magical medium to release it because the miniature pathways carved in the magical medium were blocked by the metal remains after mana ceased to exist.
It was no wonder that the durability of mages’ weapons would decrease rapidly when fighting Steelheart Widow and Her spawns in the past. They quickly needed to be scrapped or require repair. Back then, players on the forum had always felt that this was a bug that affected the gaming experience. Who knew that William found the true reason after transmigrating…
The human body wasn’t outstanding as a magic medium. If he cast spells with his hands, the consumption of mana would increase. Of course, this extra consumption wasn’t much to William, but what made him uncomfortable was that he couldn’t use the enhancements gained from a series of magical mediums before casting spells like before.

Alright… I’ll use a blank Declaration to see how capable the other party is first.
After all, the other party was the person who claimed to be capable of killing a Judge. He should be capable enough, right?
The spear that was purely made of ice crystals was silently thrown out. Moreover, after it left his hand, it flew at the other party’s neck at an undetectable speed.
In the blink of an eye, the spear of destiny that could freeze the surrounding space and time had arrived less than half a foot away from the other party. If the other party was nothing like an expert, he would probably die on the spot.
The person responded very decisively. He raised a hand, and the flesh on the back of his hand quickly aged and peeled off, turning into a cluster of withered leaves. They spun in front of him and turned into a substitute made of dead leaves.
Then, Declaration ignored the other party’s substitute and circled around it to pierce his neck, pinning him beside the forest druid that William had tied up.
Bright red blood with traces of green flowed out of the other party’s mouth and nose and throat at the same time. Before he died, his eyes were filled with disbelief.
The battle ended before he could warm up. Even William was stunned.
What’s up with this person? He wanted to use a decoy to dodge Declaration which can directly lock onto karma like Karma arrow? Isn’t he severely underestimating Frost-type Divine Realm spells?
Even if Declaration was the weakest of Frost-type Divine Realm spells.
The members of the Oak Council looked at William in a daze.
Enso Oak, who had been tied up by William, looked at the ice crystal spear nailed to his side and said, “Why? Do you think you can intimidate me and scare all the Forest Elves into being enslaved and oppressed by that woman again?”
William was taken aback.
It was also at this moment that the flesh and blood of the fellow dressed as a Church member nailed to Enso’s side exploded with a crack like a desiccated insect that had been exposed to the sun before turning into countless spinning dead leaves.
The withered leaves swept through the center of the hall like butterflies before gathering on the substitute the other party had created and recombining into flesh and blood.
“Divine Realm spell, Declaration? Who are you? Are you from the Platinum Ring or a successor related to Judgment?” the man said as soon as he took shape.
Unharmed… Other than the flesh and blood that had peeled off his hand, the person appeared in front of William unscathed.
Without waiting for William to answer, he looked around and continued, “And where did Floral go? Did you kill her or…”
At this point, he paused and revealed a mysterious smile.
“Alright. In any case, other than me, no one shall leave this place alive today… No one else will know how a new legend was born. This way, every future sentence I write in scripture will become a new reality.”
With that said, a blurry figure began to outline itself behind him.
It was a well-rounded woman with solemn and loose clothes and hair that cascaded down Her shoulders. Her arms were crossed in front of Her chest as if She was carrying something. Even though Her expression was blurry, one could sense Her love from the bottom of Her heart.
William’s expression turned serious when he saw the phantom.
The man looked at William’s change in attitude in satisfaction and said,
“There’s no need to be surprised. Mother is with me now. Don’t worry, I promise you a peaceful death that’s like sleep.”
Rewriting canon in the Holy Spirits Church required obvious miracles and narration by those who had experienced it.
Now that he had brought back the missing side of Earth Mother, it was an obvious miracle. If no one else had experienced it other than him, he would be in charge of the specific content and details during the pre-codification of canon.
Although he couldn’t make it too ridiculous, he only needed to pay attention to the choice of words and be vague about some details. Then, he could leave his name in the revised canon in the future. After his death, he would be acclaimed by many as a Transcendent and become a Saint. As Mother’s saint, he would join the ranks of Mother and become truly immortal as a mortal.
In the future, when the Mother Holy Spirit descended into Currere, She might even choose his persona as an incarnation to descend into.
Just like how the Eighth Holy Spirit had chosen William Kane and Terra Riel as His incarnations.
Of course, there were disagreements in the Church, believing that the truth might be the other way around. Terra Riel had achieved a holy miracle and monopolized the right of interpretation. He had also used William Kane’s influence to establish the Eighth Holy Spirit. Of course, this disagreement only circulated in private even though the Church internally ostracized the Eighth Order’s Holy Spirits Church.
If news of this spread, the relationship between the Holy Spirits Church and the empire’s royal family might deteriorate to an unimaginable level.
No matter what, if he wanted to be the only narrator, Sigmond couldn’t let anyone leave regardless of who the enemy he was facing today was.
With this in mind, he solemnly took out a silver object from his pocket.
That was something the Second Order’s Patriarch had privately handed over to him before he came to Ravenwood.
Pseudo-Holy Spirit Ring of Protection.
It was said to have a piece of the real ring fused in it.
Back then, in order to completely seal the Moon Realm rift, William Kane asked the Holy Spirits Church for seven complete Holy Spirit Protection Rings.
To ensure that the Church’s holy relic could be passed down, the seven Patriarchs back then each retained a fragment of their corresponding Holy Spirit Protection Ring.
This also left a tiny weakness in each of the seven Moon Realm rift seals. Of course, this was a story for another time.
No matter what, he had already become a Living Saint because of his immortal achievements. Coupled with this Pseudo-Mother’s Protection… Even if the other party was another living Judge, he had no fear!
