Chapter 226 Fake?
On the other side of the interrogation room, a group of Arcanists watched Clovis and Officer Alisha’s conversation.
Clovis’ answer created a buzz among them as they had never expected to encounter someone who the Church or the Holy Arts Faction had probably exiled.
“Ho~ I didn’t know that there are Rogue Holy Arts Practitioners… I thought they were all being handled by your faction or the church…” Clyde, a special member of the Illustrious Liquidator, whispered in interest.
He looked at the man who claimed to be Clovis, and he couldn’t really imagine him being a Holy Arts Practitioner. Initially, he thought that this young man was an Apprentice Knight. This isn’t a wild guess, but he analyzed it considering the vitality force, and spiritual power that he can feel from Clovis.
Of course, he wasn’t the only one who was shocked at this.
“They are rare, but they exist… It’s also my first seeing one. I didn’t expect to find one just after arriving in this city.” Teresa commented.
Clare also nodded at this as she looked at Clovis curiously. “Do you think he’s faking it?” She asked.
“I don’t think so. His Arcane Path can be easily proven if we ask him to cast a spell. We will easily find out if he was lying.” Teresa answered.
No matter what, this young man shouldn’t lie about his Arcane Path since it could be easily discovered whether he was telling the truth or not.
Teresa and Clare, who were part of the Untainted Sentinels, felt complicated after seeing a fellow Holy Arts Meanwhile, Officer Alisha was lost for words after hearing the young man’s answer.
‘I’m actually suspecting a Holy Arts Practitioner for being the culprit of the incident?’ Alisha suddenly had a stiff smile on her face.
Clovis was the last person she had to interrogate, and Clovis was also the most suspicious among all the rogue practitioners they had taken into custody.
It was already proven that the incident was related to the Dark Arts Practitioners. To be exact, there is one Necromancer and a Summoner who the Zombie killed. According to the investigators, there should be a third person, and it must be another Dark Arts Practitioner who practices a Spell similar to Spectral Hands or Ghost Hands.
They are now searching for this other person, so Alisha couldn’t help but feel disappointed that Clovis wasn’t the one they were looking for. She was so sure that Clovis was that other person since her instincts would generally be accurate.
It appears that she was too tired today and made a mistake.
“Very well, show me any Spell of the Holy Arts Faction so I can send you away.” Alisha said as she just wanted to finish her job today.
“Well… I only learned two Holy Arts spells.” Vale hesitated for a moment before continuing.
“One of them is Blessed Healing… So can I try using it on your glass of water?” Vale asked.
However, as he thought that he was being inconspicuous, he heard the Special Unit officer react strangely.
Cough! Cough!
“What did you say?! Are you an exiled Priest? No, you’re too young… Are you an Acolyte? What sin did you commit?! Please don’t joke with me. What will you say next? You can use Divine Sense like the Bishops of the Church?” Alisha asked in exasperation as she couldn’t Normally, these priests would act like they are privileged, and no one can really blame them for acting like that. believe that a practitioner who could cast Blessed Healing had even cooperated with their interrogation.
Normally, these priests would act like they are privileged, and no one can really blame them for acting like that. People would typically try and get to the good sides of these practitioners since no one can tell when you would need their powers.
If, in the beginning, Clovis just spoke and told her that he was a young priest of the Fortune Goddess, or an Acolyte, or perhaps an excommunicated priest, she wouldn’t dare ask him to follow her to the police station!
Since he was only a teenager, Alisha could believe him if he simply said that he was an Acolyte. He doesn’t need to be so late telling her about his identity!
‘This…’
Vale had no idea what it meant to have Blessed Healing since it wasn’t adequately discussed in their class. He only knew that it was just a Tier 1 Holy Art and shouldn’t be that rare since it has low requirements. ππ³.πΈβ΄π
“I… It’s complicated.” Vale answered as he realized that the Divine Sense was actually a Bishop-Exlusive Spell!
Anyway, he can’t reveal too much information. It’s better not to broaden his lie too much, or he might be found out. If he said that he’s an Acolyte or a Priest, there might be some follow-up questions that he couldn’t answer.
“Can I just try it on your glass of water?” Vale asked again, eager to prove his spell to leave this place already.
As Alisha was about to agree, the door of the interrogation room suddenly opened.
Two gorgeous ladies wearing white trench coats and holding white umbrellas like a cane entered the room.
Vale looked at the two, and he recalled who they were. His Divine Sense had previously noticed their presence, and they were both remarkable, so it was easy to remember them.
If he wasn’t mistaken, these two should be 11-slotted Arcanists of the Holy Arts Faction.
Practitioner.
“Lady Teresa… Lady Clare.” Alisha immediately stood up after seeing the two.
From the way she respects the two, Vale can guess that these ladies have a high position, or perhaps, these two are Untainted Sentinels.
“Don’t mind us, Alisha. The wall is blocking our senses, so we quickly entered the room to see his Holy Arts clearly.” Clare spoke as she looked at Alisha.
“We just want to watch him cast the Blessed Healing… I don’t believe that he had learned the spell at all. It must be a different or weaker version of the Blessed Healing, like a Touch of Grace or Lesser Purification.” Teresa added as she coldly looked at the young man claiming to be a Holy Arts Practitioner.
