Chapter 182 - Chapter 182 The Culprit

Sera hurried towards Synthia's room and knocked hard on the door. Synthia lazily opened the door and Sera quickly entered, Sera looked at her friend and she felt a pang of anger when she saw her dull eyes and the black bags under them. She had been torn between the decision to confront Colin about what happened to the saint or not for a few days and that has taken a mental toll on her mind and she has lost a lot of sleep over it.

'I'm gonna kill that bastard when I get my hands on him.' Sera swore in her heart

"We need to go, Castiel is going to City A to kill Colin." Sera said but Synthia just curled up on her bed.

"Listen, Colin didn't kill that saint. Do you know a saint named Kyle?" Sera asked and Synthia finally looked up.

"Well apparently, this saint has been secret meetings in his room. He uses his [Sound Affinity] to prevent anyone from hearing anything from the outside, but I managed to use [Advanced Compulsion] to interrogate one of the priests. He told me a lot and told me that all of this is just a scheme for them to get Castiel to help them get rid of Colin, but that wasn't the end of it. They plan to get Castiel to turn them into Angels and then stage a cue to kill all of us and then take over this place. I didn't tell anyone yet, because this wouldn't I wanted to see if i got the right information from that priest, you know how unreliable the skill can be." Sera said and the more she talked, the more Synthia's eyes glowed, by the time she was done, Synthia's eyes were practically lit up with heavenly flames.

"That bastard, I'm gonna kill him. Let's go." Synthia said angrily and burst through the door.

"Yes, but we need to get Mr. Ziek first." Sera said and the two of them head towards Mr. Zieks room which was close by.

"Mr. Ziek we need to go NOW." Sera said and he looked at her with a raised eyebrow, but got up and followed them anyway.

"What's so urgent?" Mr. Ziek asked as the three of them ran up the stairs and out the mansion.

"We know who the culprit is." Sera said as they zoomed past a few of their followers and took to the sky.

"You mean the Demon." Mr. Ziek said

"No, it's a saint named Kyle." Synthia said hatefully

"A saint, then why are we flying away from the mansion?" Mr. Ziek asked confused

"He has tricked Castiel into helping him kill Colin, they have gone to City A." Sera said and Mr. Ziek's eyes turned cold.

"Is that so? If what you say is true, then we will have to make an example out of him and his compatriots." He said.

As the three of them flew towards City A, Synthia suddenly stopped midflight.

"What's wrong?" Sera asked

"My ring, the storage ring I gave to that priest, I can sense it." She said and flew into the forest. They flew towards where Synthia could sense her ring and they soon found a tier 3 demonic bear ripping the leg off the missing saint and they could hear his wretched screams, which meant that he was alive. Mr. Ziek quickly killed the bear with a single metal spear and looked at the barely alive saint.

"M-my lord, you have come to save me." Darren said weakly, but they only gave him a cold glare

"I'll take him back to the [Holy Territory], we can interrogate him infront of the other humans before executing him." Mr. Ziek said and the traitorous saint looked at him horrified, but he couldn't do anything as Mr. Ziel grabbed him by the collar and flew towards the mansion.

"Let's hurry to City A." Sera said and the two continued on their journey
