"I have no time to play games with you. This is your last chance to remove the mark from her," Alexander said coldly.
The bishop, pale-faced, nodded, "I can restore her consciousness."
He was acutely aware that any further refusal would lead Alexander to kill him without hesitation.
Three minutes later, the bishop returned, holding a transparent cup filled with blue water.
This was the so-called holy water.
"Just have her drink this water, and she will regain her consciousness," the bishop said, glancing at Alexander with a look of awe.
Alexander took the cup and examined it, asking, "Just drinking this water will do?"
"Yes," replied the bishop.
Alexander squinted at the bishop, who felt a pang of fear.
Had he been found out?
Indeed, he had a hidden agenda.
This cup of holy water contained his blood.
