Grey Knight Chronicle – Additional Update [10/15]_3

“Hmm?”

Murphy’s question seemed to surprise both Old Eugene and Mother Mary Ann.

Mother Mary Ann looked at Murphy with astonishment, her voice skeptical:

“You can take down four Fallen Gray Knights almost unscathed with your own power, and you don’t have a trick up your sleeve to fight them?”

“My situation is a bit complex, and I don’t mind stretching my muscles from time to time, but surely you can’t expect me to be thrown wherever there’s a Fallen Gray Knight, right?”

Murphy rolled his eyes and said:

“I need others to have ways to fight them, too.

I can be strong, but after all, I only have two hands.”

“That’s going to be a problem.”

Old Eugene shook his head and said:

“Although the combat strength of a Grey Knight might not be as formidable as that of a Red Knight, this comparison is based on the assumption that both are fighting masters of the same rank.

In terms of absolute power, even among the entire continent, our Grey Knight brethren are first-class demon banishers.

After they are filled with evil power from Subspace, their destructive force only becomes stronger.

Protected doubly by the special holy armor and the secret oath of the Way, their physical defense and resistance to Spiritual Energy almost reach the limit you can imagine.

It’s almost impossible to overwhelm them with numbers…”

“The Holy Grail!”

Natalie, who had been silent until then, suddenly spoke up:

“They took the vow of secrecy and arbitration when they became Grey Knights, just as my father made an oath of protection.

If we can recover the Avalon Holy Grail, we can command these ‘oath breakers’ to enter a state of extreme weakness and ‘divine retribution’ when facing them.

In such a case, it would only take a few sacrificial lethal attacks to deal with them.

Moreover, the Church’s Sacred Blades can also inflict effective damage on them; those weapons carry godliness and are artifacts of purification.

Of course, the most permanent solution would be to retrieve the Grey Knight’s Sanctified Blade, ‘Arbiter.’

That weapon embodies the arbitrating power of all the War Spirits of Grey Knights since their creation.

As long as we hold it in our hands, these Fallen Grey Knights would be nothing but lambs to the slaughter!”

“So, the key question now is, where is the Avalon Holy Grail?”

Murphy spread his hands and followed up with a question.

This rendered the three Witch Hunters silent, as the question was unanswerable.

After all, if they knew where in Glamour Holy Land the Holy Grail was, would they need to go to the trouble of rebuilding the Church in Transylvania?

With the Sacred Artifact in hand, wouldn’t a call from the high ground bring thousands of believers flocking?

“Sigh, I knew it wouldn’t be that easy.”

Murphy detected the Witch Hunters’ embarrassment.

He didn’t press further and instead said:

“My Warrior has found some clues about the Sacred Blades.

In Mrs.

Cecilia’s notes, he found information about seven different Sacred Blades, and it also pointed out that the Shadow Elves of the Eternal Abyss are also collecting these artifacts.

If we have the chance in the future, maybe we can start from there, but Natalie, since they are your Sacred Artifacts, the task chain to recover them…”

“I will take responsibility for issuing it!”

The Heartless Demon Huntress nodded, accepting the heavy task.

Murphy had no further questions.

He watched as Natalie turned around to activate the Sacred Blade with the Purification Fire from Avalon and burn away those four corpses.

Only with the complete disappearance of Subspace’s taint, as dawn was about to break, did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.

After waiting a few minutes, once Old Eugene had completed the farewell prayers for his former Grey Knight brothers, Murphy asked Natalie in a low voice, who remained aloof by his side:

“There is another implication to Count Shuren’s invitation for you to observe the Highlander’s oath ceremony…”

“I understand.”

Natalie responded:

“Before coming here, Madam Jules specifically explained to me the grudges between the Sax Highlanders and the Old Education of nature.

I guess the Little Count wants to use this opportunity to reconcile the two parties.

Actually, there has always been a discussion about Highlander beliefs inside the Avalon Church, and some doctrine masters believe that Highlander worship is also a variant within the Avalon God belief system, although this primitive Spirit of the Mountain Woods worship dates back even earlier than the founding of the Avalon Church.

What I mean is, if Count Shuren can persuade the local Highlanders to accept us, then the Avalon Church we established could genuinely reconcile with them on this matter.

I have carefully considered the words you told me last time…

I must admit, you were right!

We are all Shepherds of the Avalon God in the Human World; we should fulfill our duties and not instigate conflict and opposition among the flock.”

“Hmm, it’s good that you realize this.”

Murphy nodded, and since Natalie already had her judgment, he had nothing more to say.

He reminded her:

“I heard from Shuren that the Highlanders also have a Holy Grail.”

“No, the Forest Holy Grail and the Avalon Holy Grail are not the same concept.

The religious origins and their formation are so different they could be considered two entirely separate things.”

Natalie intended to enlighten Murphy about the religious differences between these Sacred Artifacts, but recalling that Murphy was an unbelieving Vampire, she decisively abandoned this futile effort.

She simply stated briefly:

“I get your point if the Highlanders agree, we can try using the Forest Holy Grail to attempt to rebuild the Church’s severed system of Strength.

If we can, I really do hope to see a new White Knight born on the Transia Lands.

If we succeed, I think my father will also feel comforted within the Natural Cathedral.”
