Chapter 364 - 317 : Book of Eternity (2/2)
Unfortunately, she didn't know the whole truth. Lucy never did a thing, it was Arthur's doing all along. With the darkness that blocked the light and scared the White Spaws, the two females continued their short journey.
An hour or so later, they arrived at what seemed to be their destination. Amidst the greenery of the place, there was some kind of a palace with tall white stars. Everything seemed out of place as if they were just put here randomly. There was an absence of White Spawns but just in front of the stairs, there was a peculiar White Spawn. It wasn't as ugly as the rest, in fact, it bore a resemblance to Angels with its pair of white wings.
It had a small shield on its right hand and a one-handed sword on its left. White armor and white skin, even its pupils were white. As the two women approached it, it abruptly awakened and directed its gaze toward them. From its initial kneeling position, it slowly got up and prepared itself for the upcoming fight.
*Innocence, Light Keeper.(Race: None): Little Sovereign
Age : ????
Emotion : None
Skills : Punish [IV] / Vision Wave / Light Surge
Short Description : An entity born from Light Energy. It has no emotions and its only reason to exist is to continuously suck energy from living beings. It is a rank above normal White Spawns.
As he read the details of Appraisal, Arthur was momentarily confused as it's not the thing that's emitting Yin Energy. For such an entity to exist is surprising as no one ever mentioned that a Sovereign was in the Wicked Forest. Though the Green-Leaf World had no lack of Sovereigns, that doesn't mean they're found everywhere.
Nonetheless, dealing with Innocence wasn't going to be that much of a problem. Shu Ru may find difficulties defeating it but for Lucy, erasing it from existence is a simple task.
Shu Ru nervously stared at Innocence, her eyes glowed with purple light. She retrieved a relatively long bow from her storage and readied herself for battle.
As Innocence had a higher Realm than her, she couldn't pinpoint its exact Grade but she never that whatever was in front of her was definitely a Sovereign.
The Light Keeper wasn't going to wait for them to attack, it vertically raised its sword and swung down or so it should have been. Unfortunately for Innocence, just as it raised its hand, Lucy began her assault.
The area around them, which was composed of either greenery or stairs, was turned into ice in a split second. Before Shu Ru or the enemy could react, the battle has ended with just a raise of a hand.
Innocence turned into a frozen statue which began to crack only for the ice to harden thus negating the Light Keeper's pointless resistance.
With stats like hers, Sovereigns were nothing to Lucy. Simply using her Yin powers, which belonged to her Physique, was enough to deal with a Little Sovereign. She would only become serious if her opponent was something above the Sovereign Realm.
Lucy put down her raised hand and resumed walking toward the stairs without minding the shockerd Shu Ru, who quickly followed her after snapping out of her daze.
