Chapter 35: The Appearance of the Apostle

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Since Princess Alice had said so, Rhine did not have any apprehensions of asking the wrong question.

“Based on my simple observation, I found that the Princess’ illness appeared about three days ago. Am I right?” Rhine said calmly.

When they heard this, Alice and Diana could not help but be shocked, because Rhine was right.

That was indeed the case. Alice’s Frost Moss Disease had appeared three days ago, and her condition got worse by the day since then.

Alice could not help but nod. “You’re right, Mr. Rhine.”

From Alice and Diana’s expressions just now, one could already observe that Rhine’s speculations were correct

“And thus, Princess, another question. In the six hours before the onset of the illness, what did you come into contact with, or rather, who did you come into contact with?”

Hearing this question, Princess Alice revealed a look of reminiscence, and she looked as if she was somewhat pained.

“Someone I came into contact with... Could it be him?”

Hearing that she had indeed come into contact with someone, Rhine hurriedly asked who it was and what had happened.

“That day... was the day I would visit the outer city every week. When I had just finished my sightseeing and was prepared to return to the mansion, I met a dispirited knight on a street in the eastern district. His clothes were very tattered, and he looked like a beggar, very much down and out. But his base seemed very good, I could tell that he had a glorious past. I felt pity for him, and so I asked someone to give him some food.”

...

Three days ago, in the eastern district.

“Someone, bring some food and warm clothes here.”

Soon, a servant brought some food and clothes to her.

Alice personally handed the food and clothes over to the dispirited knight.

“Sir, there are some food and clothes here. I think they would be very useful to you.”

The knight looked to be in his thirties. From his face, one could see that he was filled with vicissitudes.

However, at this moment, the dispirited knight’s eyes were full of vigor. There seemed to be a faint blue light flowing in his eyes.

“My respected Princess, I didn’t expect you to be so kind.”

Alice smiled gently. “It’s what I should do, isn’t it? I hope these can help you.”

The corners of the dispirited knight’s mouth curled up into a wicked smile.

“Who wouldn’t like such a kind Princess? Well, my kind-hearted Princess, you should experience this then.”

Saying this, a faint blue light appeared with a wave of the dispirited knight’s hand and entered the Princess’ body.

For a moment, the Princess couldn’t react on time and was puzzled as to what had just happened.

“What is this... ?”

The dispirited knight smiled wickedly.

“This is a gift given to you by my Lord because of your kindness. Enjoy it.”

As soon as he said that, a gust of strong wind blew up in the surroundings. It was accompanied by a blizzard and frost, causing the temperature in the surroundings to drop to an extremely low level.

Her vision became blurry as a result of the blizzard and the knight disappeared in an instant.

...

“After the gust of strong wind stopped, the dispirited knight had disappeared. When I returned to my mansion at night, I felt an extremely cold element corroding my body. I was extremely cold. And so...”

After listening carefully to Princess Alice’s explanation, the room fell into silence.

Such a story sounded too bizarre.

What was the background of this dispirited knight?

From Alice’s description, it could be seen that he was the culprit.

But what was the reason for him to have put in so much effort?

Lu Yuan could not help but ponder in his heart that the plot of this story was gradually developing in a further direction.

At this moment, Rhine broke the silence.

“Hernas...”

“What?!”

“What did you say?”

Lu Yuan could not help but raise his head and look at Rhine.

Diana and Alice also looked at Rhine in unison.

This was because the name Rhine had mentioned was that existence!

One of the Twelve Calamity Demons, Hernas!

They had always been the most taboo existence for humans because the Twelve Calamity Demons were simply too powerful.

Humans were a far cry from them, and they left humans with only despair and fear.

Rhine continued speaking: “Based on the Princess’ description just now, I should be confident in saying that the seemingly dispirited knight should be an abyss-fallen person who serves Hernas as his master to obtain the frost power of Hernas. As such, he is the apostle of Hernas!”

Rhine’s words were too shocking.

Even Lu Yuan, who was a bystander, could not help but be attracted by such a plot.

In his previous life, Lu Yuan knew that there was a disaster in Amber City that was related to Hernas.

To be precise, it was the power that Hernas had released to infiltrate the human world.

From there, apostles started to appear. They led many frost-eroded monsters and launched a fierce attack on Amber City.

This monster siege had once been recorded in the annals of history because it was too epic and ardent.

Although Amber City was almost destroyed in the end, and many players had their levels reduced due to death in the game, everyone still could not help but feel excited about the realistic battle which even involved players.

Unfortunately, Lu Yuan did not know much about the details of the monster siege.

He only understood from later-on deciphering that it was planned by an apostle.

Lu Yuan could not help but be cautious.

Could it be that the two apostles were one and the same?

Diana frowned and said, “Are you sure? Rhine, can you take responsibility for what you said?”

Rhine said with a serious face, “I am 100% sure. The proof is the Frost Moss Disease! Back then, after the snowstorm, these kinds of symptoms appeared. My teacher, Moss also experienced them, but my teacher did not despair. Instead, he chose to use his own body as an experiment and successfully analyzed the kind of frost element involved. It was a trace of Hernas’ power of the Laws of Ice and Snow, which formed a virus-like existence with frost elements. In the end, he developed the fire spirit potion that could dispel this illness, and thus the illness was named the Frost Moss Disease.”

Hearing Rhine’s words, everyone came to a sudden realization.

So there was such a story, even Diana did not know about it.

Alice’s eyes turned solemn and she said, “If that’s the case, we must issue an arrest warrant for this apostle! We can’t let him do whatever he wants!”
