Chapter 454 Killing A Spirit Master

"Haaaa!!!" Noel shouted to pump up more spirit as he began pus.h.i.+ng the Spirit Master back.

Because he couldn't use both hands, the Spirit Master ended up taking a few steps back until he was completely cornered with his back touching the wall.

'Impossible. How can I even lose against two Spirit Wielders?' The guy was still in denial even though he had recognized both of their power earlier. He simply couldn't believe that these two young people had this kind of ability.

Unfortunately, there was nothing left he could do since Anna had stabilized her posture and gone straight at him.

The Spirit Master tried to release his Spiritual Energy to blow Noel away as a last struggle, but Anna was one step ahead. She utilized her lightning to increase her speed so that she appeared before the Spirit Master before he could do anything.

He had no choice but to let his sword slide on Noel's blade before striking Anna's sword.

But Noel changed his sword style again into Fear as he released the quickest swing today.

The sword ended up cutting the guy's right arm and Anna blew the hand away, making sure the sword couldn't be picked up anymore.

The guy kicked Anna in his last struggle, but the latter managed to block it with her sword. She even grabbed his foot to stop him from doing anything to Noel.

This gave Noel a big opportunity to end his life.

Without hesitation, Noel used his Contempt to make a precise swing, sending his head flying.

"Huu" Noel let out a sigh of relief. He felt happy that they could defeat a Spirit Master without allowing the enemy to use a powerful move. Though, the enemy was still a new Spirit Master, so he couldn't really call him the true Spirit Master like Rose and the others.

Still, this was a victory. So, he checked the system again to make sure he got the notification for killing the enemy.

After that, he glanced at Anna as if telling her to do her part.

Anna knew they weren't supposed to know each other. Although Rose was already aware of the situation, the people still had to think they didn't know each other. After all, it would be bad if an Inquisitor had a friend in the Demon Banner Army. Both of them had to be suspected as double agents.

So, Anna ignored Noel and started doing her job as an inquisitor.

After confirming the enemy's death, Anna let out a sigh of relief while scanning the area around. There was no sign of another enemy appearing, so she believed the guy operated alone.

She also cut the guy's clothes to find the Supreme Devil Organization's mark. As expected from a high level member, the mark itself was hidden with Spiritual Energy. There was even a thin layer of skin that hid the mark underneath.

Anna cut it and showed the enemy's affiliation, confirming the Supreme Devil Organization's involvement.

With this mark, Anna turned to the Count, knowing she had all the right to be suspicious of him.

But before confronting the Count, she had to meet Rose, who had been helping them take down the enemy. It was a little gesture, but that truly helped a lot.

Anna stopped in front of Rose with a grim expression. She knew Rose must be angry because of what she had done to Noel. But since she was already aware of Iadre's ident.i.ty, she shouldn't be fighting her out of the blue.

That was why she was ready to hear Rose's rants for a bit before dealing with the Count.

But to her surprise, Rose only said, "I don't like you for what you did, but I can understand the situation. So, I won't do anything that will hinder you"

"" Anna thought Rose would be talking for at least a minute, but this was truly convenient to her.

After releasing everything she wanted to say, Rose stepped aside and said, "I believe this is your job."

"Thank you." Anna nodded. She was thankful that Rose helped her take care of the Count or else the situation would be much more serious.

Rose walked to Noel to discuss the situation while Anna glared at the Count and said with a cold tone. "I believe I don't need to tell you about anything else. I'm going to detain you right now and investigate the relations.h.i.+p between you and the Supreme Devil Organization."

"You I'm not related to the Supreme Devil Organization. He's just framing me." The Count gritted his teeth, denying all the accusations.

However, he was so focused on the Supreme Devil Organization that he forgot Anna's original intention in coming here.

Anna narrowed her eyes and smiled, "I see. So, you do not deny that the current situation is because of you. It seems the rumor of you creating a demon farm is true. That alone is enough for me to investigate you. That's why I'm going to have you cooperate with me."

"Do you" The Count wanted to stop her, but Anna simply said, "You won't have anything to worry about if you're not related to this incident. I'll even pay for the reparation for the damage and Arbiter Stargaze shall be clearing your name.

"However, if you're proven to be related to this case, I'll be dealing with you personally. Don't expect any mercy." Anna said all those words with a big smile on her face.

However, the Count couldn't feel any warmth or happiness from it. Instead, he just felt chills down his spine.

He knew Anna was using all these excuses to get all the doc.u.ments he had. It would be fine if he managed to escape without meeting the guy from the Supreme Devil Organization since Anna couldn't fully investigate him that way. Yet, the situation wasn't in his favor.

The Count knew that no matter what he did, his life was already over. He was surely going to be executed after this.

Meanwhile, Noel and Rose left the area without saying goodbye to Anna. They still had the mission to eliminate the demons after all.
