Wizard: Stronger through Marriage

Chapter 343: Chapter 156: Gaining a New Talent_2

Enhancing the strength of the Four Elements Array he wielded, so as to unleash even greater elemental power.

Unfortunately, the fire and water elemental talents are still elusive.

At precisely this moment, the Jingge Kingdom finally uncovered information about the witches of the Witch Mutual Aid Association, who had already entered the Far North.

Reina had sent an expedition team to search for them, and it’s believed that results will soon be forthcoming, paving the way for the Wizard Castle to welcome a large number of witches again.

In addition, David was also keeping an eye on the situation in the Shiling Kingdom.

Since he caused a stir at the Stone Ridge Royal Capital last time, the King of Stone Ridge had not shown himself, leading David to speculate that he might be in seclusion.

Hill’s power was also nearing the Tier Four Peak.

He needed to make another trip to the Shiling Kingdom to try to have Hill absorb the Earth Barrier’s power in an attempt to boost his own strength to Tier Five.

”Hmm?”

”The Saintess has gone to the Eastern Territory?”

David glanced at the piece of news in his hand, an odd note in his voice.

Ever since he obtained the Light Attribute Talent from the Saintess last time, he had been unable to forget it, yet had found no opportunity to approach her.

With the recent deaths of a large number of high-tier personnel of the Holy Light Church, the power of the entire Silver Moon Holy Light Church had contracted to the Silver Moon Royal Capital.

In this context, the Saintess’s journey to the Eastern Territory was very unusual.

Organizing the information in his hand, he found that the Saintess might be targeting the vampires, especially with the Blood Witch among them about to awaken.

Not long after.

He indeed received information from the Duke of Vampires.

The Blood Queen was about to awaken, and the Saintess had already discovered some of the vampires’ whereabouts, continually attempting to eliminate the vampires operating in the Eastern Territory.

David was not concerned about those ordinary vampires, but since the Saintess had tangled with the Duke of Vampires, David found himself unable to ignore it.

Upon receiving the news, he took Hill, Annie, Sura, and Lily with him, using the Teleportation Array to directly head to the Eastern Territory, planning to await the latest developments.

Here, he could directly use mind sensing and the connection between spirits to communicate with the Messenger Magic Pet, accurately gauging the onsite situation.

He did not instruct the Duke of Vampires to hold back; naturally, in this scenario, the Church could not withstand it, becoming instead the target of the vampires’ counter-siege against the Holy Light Church.

While training with Hill, Annie, Sura, and Lililune, David was also waiting for the best opportunity to strike.

The strengths of Hill, Annie, Sura, and Lily had all reached Tier Four Peak.

He wanted not only to train with the four but to ensure that these four witches quickly advanced to Tier Five, further enhancing their cultivation effectiveness.

...

Lion City, Holy Light Church.

The Saintess’s face was extremely serious, her brows knitted tightly together.

She had indeed received news of vampires appearing in the Eastern Territory and, with a desire to leave the Northern Lands, had proactively brought knights to the Eastern Territory.

However, she completely did not anticipate the vampires in the Eastern Territory would be so terrifyingly strong, among them a Duke of Vampires.

The knights she brought to the Eastern Territory during this time had mostly been killed or injured, yet she still had no solutions for these vampires.

She even began to feel that the Duke of Vampires was trying to annihilate the Holy Light Church.

A thought of Duke Frost Wolf appeared involuntarily in her mind, and she realized that perhaps only Duke Frost Wolf could possibly save these vampires now.

But in the next moment, she clenched her fists tightly, knowing she could never have any more dealings with Duke Frost Wolf, who had violated her.

”Lady Saintess, the vampires are attacking the Holy Light Church now!” Suddenly, the Holy Light Bishop rushed in urgently.

Although his strength was also at Tier Five Peak, the Duke of Vampires led personally this time, which made him feel an overwhelming pressure!

Rumble——

The doors to the Holy Light Church suddenly flew open.

The Saintess’s eyes flashed with resolve; she knew there was no retreat now, they could only fight with all their might.

She quickly gathered the remaining Holy Light Knights, along with all the priests and believers in the church, preparing to meet the invading vampire army.

”Holy Light sanctuary, expel the darkness!”

The Saintess raised her Holy Light Staff high, a brilliant radiance bursting from its top, illuminating the entire Holy Light Church, casting a sacred shield over all the believers.

The Duke of Vampires, leading his Dark Corps, walked slowly through the gates of the Holy Light Church.

His eyes glowed red, a cruel smile at the corners of his mouth, as if mocking the Saintess’s futile struggles.

”Saintess, your Holy Light is nothing more than a firefly’s light before me.”

The Duke of Vampires’ voice was cold and arrogant as he slowly raised his hand, a dark energy wave rolling toward the Saintess and her followers.

The Saintess showed no fear, directing the Holy Light Knights to form a sturdy defense line while chanting spells herself, releasing Holy Light attacks in hopes of halting the Duke of Vampires’ offensive.

Holy Light and darkness clashed within the church, the deafening sound echoing, shaking the entire cathedral.

The battle was fiercely intense; the Saintess and her knights fought valiantly, but the power of the Duke of Vampires was overwhelmingly strong, gradually dismantling their defensive line.

The Saintess knew that if they couldn’t find the Duke of Vampires’ weakness, they stood no chance in this battle, necessitating the use of the Holy Light Church’s Divine Arts!

She quickly retreated to a corner of the cathedral, beginning to chant an ancient spell, powerful Holy Light Energy gathering around her.

The Duke of Vampires sensed the threat, roaring as he charged toward the Saintess, attempting to stop her spellcasting.

Just at that critical moment, the Saintess completed the spell, a massive pillar of Holy Light descending from the sky, striking the Duke of Vampires directly.

The Duke let out a painful howl, his body scorched by the Holy Light, rapidly weakening.

Though it lasted only a moment, he forcibly broke through the Holy Light’s power, quickly pulling away.

Instead, this ignited the fury of the Duke of Vampires, leading the vampires to even more frenzied attacks.

Watching as the Holy Light Knights around her fell one by one, the Saintess’s face finally revealed a hint of despair.

Just as with the previous devil invasion, the Saintess felt that sense of powerlessness once more, but would Duke Frost Wolf come to her rescue again this time?

Just then, the Duke of Vampires paused, his gaze landing on a figure standing in the distance, halting all his actions suddenly.

The Saintess was startled, her gaze landing on the distant figure, her eyes widening abruptly as she blurted out, ”Duke Frost Wolf, why are you here?”

”Naturally, to protect you,” David intoned solemnly.

”I promised before that I would take responsibility for you, and I will see it through to the end!”

With that, he looked toward the vampires.

The imposing aura he projected left the Duke of Vampires unable to stand firm for long, actually fleeing outright.

Watching this.

The Saintess and the Holy Light Knights around her wore astonished expressions.

They were well aware of how incredibly powerful the Dukes of Vampires were, and yet one had been directly intimidated into retreat by Duke Frost Wolf’s presence!

This alone revealed the terrifying extent of Duke Frost Wolf’s current strength.

Even the Holy Light Knights felt an aura from him that they had never experienced from their commander, possibly even stronger than the Archbishop!

”Thank you.”

The Saintess said instinctively.

”Thanks? How will you thank me?”

The Saintess was caught off guard by the comment, her expression changing dramatically.

From Duke Frost Wolf’s tone and gaze, she could discern his intent.
