Chapter 627: Chapter 626 The Servant Entrusted With Everything_1

Aiden and Conrad gazed at each other from a distance. Before he could react, Aiden suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart as if all his blood had frozen solid.

His heart stopped beating, like a toy with a missing gear, it came to a halt all at once.

The black mist began to spread in front of his eyes, and Aiden no longer felt the presence of his own body.

"If you hadn’t used the divine word in advance, you would stand no chance at all," Conrad’s expression was as rigid as that of a puppet, "As an enemy of my master, you are utterly unqualified."

A desolate domain spread out from him, painting everything within with a layer of pale color, and the vital forces of all living beings began to drain away. The people around inexplicably began to feel weak, and the decorative potted plants in the corners of the lecture hall withered rapidly within the domain.

At this moment, Aiden finally understood why the other party had exposed himself. In his eyes, Aiden was already a dead man—this was the "life-reaping" power of the Death Authority. The moment he entered the other’s domain, the murder was already complete.

Even the agents of Death needed physical contact to kill. To be able to cause death from a distance with just a gaze could only be the power of the Death Authority based on divinity itself!

Mr. Redcloak actually allowed a servant to possess divinity and power, letting him brazenly carry out such an "assassination" in the prison!

"Target eliminated," said Conrad mechanically as he watched Aiden suddenly stagger as if he were about to fall.

To become Mr. Redcloak’s perfect servant, what he sacrificed was more than autonomy; it also included redundant emotions and sense of morality. He was a machine that operated solely on Mr. Redcloak’s orders, retaining only the coldest thoughts and logic.

Just as his entirely calm mind assumed the mission was as good as accomplished, a rule materialized in his mind: "During the rule’s effectiveness, any person who dies within the domain shall return to a state of complete and healthy being."

The moment he understood the rule, Aiden had recovered, and he began to mutter the divine word "Punishment" in a low voice.

Conrad’s eyes widened as he suddenly felt an intense pain on his finger. Thorny black marks began to grow around his finger as if forming a ring.

However, Aiden felt a similar pain in his finger and immediately realized that Conrad possessed powers not only of "Death" but also of "Vengeance!"

Mr. Redcloak had actually transferred all his powers to his servant!

Aiden canceled the torturous effect and switched to confinement. An invisible cage forged by his powers immediately enveloped Conrad.

"Got you!" Aiden declared, staring at Conrad.

He had thought over and over again about the possible plans Mr. Redcloak might employ, but always felt there were oversights.

Eventually, Aiden resorted to a radical solution—directly using the Wordless Code to forbid death within the domain. This not only prevented the opponent’s assassination but also stopped him from committing suicide as a martyr.

It wouldn’t matter if the other party commanded an intermediate divine word of "Death"; even a saint of the Death Authority could not succeed in killing within the domain of the Wordless Code.

Although he had considered a lot, Aiden hadn’t anticipated that Mr. Redcloak would entrust all his powers to his follower. Even if the follower who had undergone "Sacrifice" was absolutely loyal with no possibility of betrayal, if the follower failed in his mission and was captured without any chance of escape, Mr. Redcloak would lose all his divinity—a risk that was too great. Mr. Redcloak was truly a madman.

Now that Aiden had captured the servant upon whom Mr. Redcloak had staked everything, it was as if Mr. Redcloak had lost all his power!

This was an unexpected joy for Aiden.

Even though Conrad had been ready with the power of "Sacrifice" to transfer his authority along with its power to another body, if this body did not perish, the necessary conditions for "Sacrifice" to activate could not be met.

Just in case, Aiden still declared an additional rule: "Within the field, any attempt to transfer the spirit to another body is forbidden."

The rules he declared could not directly target authority and the divine word, but he could target the opponent’s spirit.

He then immediately began to recite the divine word for "Return."

"Hatred will blind your eyes," Conrad said.

The prepared ability of "Betrayal" launched at once. He did not specify any target but rather diffused the concept of hatred centred on himself.

The eyes of the people in the lecture hall turned vacant for an instant, and soon, unfounded aggressiveness appeared in their eyes. Blinded by pure hatred, their consciousness retained only madness.

Aiden’s "Return" also launched, allowing his consciousness to instantly revert to its normal state. Although the hatred forcibly imposed by "Betrayal" still tried to erode his consciousness, "Return" remained effective, continuously restoring his clarity, countering the power of "Betrayal."

Aiden applied the power of "Return" to other individuals within the field and declared another rule: "Within the field, all individuals’ consciousness must remain clear."

The people inside the field woke as if from a dream. The two powers overlapping finally broke the balance and suppressed the effect of "Betrayal."

Aiden realized that his opponent’s ability could tug-of-war like this with his own meant that Conrad’s power of "Hatred" was on par with his, this servant was also a saint, Mr. Bloodshirt’s power had been transferred without reservation. freeweɓnovel.cøm

Fortunately, in the end, he still controlled the situation.

Had Mr. Bloodshirt really died just like that? Aiden felt no real sense of victory.

"Next, everyone present must answer my questions truthfully. Is anyone among you his accomplice?" Aiden declared another rule.

Those present looked at each other, most of them not understanding what had just happened.

"Very well, the rest of the people present please leave the scene temporarily under the guidance of the guards and cooperate with the questioning later. We have received information that criminals are attempting to infiltrate and carry out prison breaks and assassinations. The criminal has now been successfully subdued; please rest assured," Aiden lied without a change in expression, then gave Veronica a look.

Veronica caught on and immediately organized for the people present to leave the lecture hall.

"Failed..." Conrad murmured softly, yet his expression was still emotionless; he did not possess the fear of failure.

"Merciful Lord, please take away everything from me and grant me the opportunity to make amends," Conrad suddenly began to pray loudly.

And then, to Aiden’s astonishment, he saw Conrad’s body begin to shrink and decay at a visible rate, eventually melting away to reveal a chilling skeleton, as if the decomposition of a corpse had been recorded in fast-forward.
