Dark Ruler - Chapter110

Maya finally got what she wanted and sat in the matriarch's seat.

At this moment, she was enjoying the respect and praise from the dark elves in the temple.

But to Jenn, those hypocritical courtesies were meaningless. When Maya fulfilled her wish, Jenn also achieved his goal.

Jenn stood in the cold basement of the Dinav Family, gazing at the two corpses before him.

Now that the ritual was over, the two corpses were no longer useful to Maya.

But to Jenn, they were of great use.

From Maya, Zayen had learned that the only people in the Dinav family who knew about the previous mission were Matriarch Dinav, Batna, and her other two sisters.

Maya was too young, after all, so she couldn't participate in it.

Of course, this also proved the importance of the mission. After all, if it wasn't a mission that they had to succeed, Matriarch Dina wouldn't stop a high-rank priest from joining.

It was apparent that Matriarch Dina was worried that Maya's lack of experience would cause the mission to fail.

But the irony was that she failed in the end.

Gazing at Matriarch Dina's corpse once more, Jenn snapped his fingers.

Shortly after, Enoya walked out of the shadows and arrived by his side.

"You know what to do, Enoya."

"Of course, Master."

Upon hearing Jenn's words, Enoya nodded.

She turned around, gazed at Jenn, and walked to the middle of the two corpses.

Then, Enoya extended her arms. Shortly after, the two corpses were dissected by invisible blades, revealing their flesh, internal organs, and everything else before Enoya.

Facing this disgusting scene, Enoya's expression didn't change in the slightest. On the contrary, she smiled, extended her arms, and reached into the internal organs of the corpses without hesitation.

This was the main reason why Jenn came here. The War God Temple hoped to obtain a holy statue, while Lorci was also looking for a similar item.

Perhaps both of them needed the same thing, and judging from Lorci's attitude, that thing was obviously very important to her.

Therefore, she would definitely not let Jenn know her secret. But unfortunately, Lorci did not expect Jenn to be so persistent. In order to find the truth, he even disguised himself as a Dark Elf and entered deep into Menzoberranzan.

Dina must know something, but Jenn had no intention of getting any information from her.

She was a matriarch, a follower of Lolth.

Any rash actions could very well be detected by Lorci, and then everything would return to how it was before. Lorci would once again destroy the corpses in order to conceal and hide her information. This was something that Jenn absolutely could not accept.

That was why he purposely arranged a "reasonable" conflict.

Maya, young, ambitious, passionate.

She had a devout faith in Rose, although Jenn had twisted this faith.

But she was still loyal to Lorci. Under such circumstances, it was normal for a zealous high-ranked priestess to murder her own sister and mother in order to reclaim her family's honor.

Lorci definitely wouldn't have any doubts about this murder. Even if Matriarch Dina and Batna's souls entered Lorci's domain, the female spider definitely wouldn't be able to obtain any abnormal information from their souls.

After all, this was just a normal exchange of positions.

Enoya's movements were gentle and swift. Her slender fingers were like a scalpel, cutting through the flesh and reaching deep inside, taking out the liver, stomach, and intestines.

Then she reached upwards and cut off Dina's vocal cords. She dislocated her chin, pulled out her tongue, and dug out her eyes.

Then it was the ears. Next, she followed the cracks in the skull and pulled out the brain inside.

Everything that was once healthy would quickly wither like a flower in Enoya's hands. Meanwhile, Enoya's eyes were half-closed as she quickly continued her movements.

She squeezed out every hidden piece of information from Dina's body.

Soon, she emptied the former dark elf matriarch's body of everything.

But Enoya only closed her eyes and thought for a moment, categorizing and organizing the information she obtained.

Then, when she opened her eyes again, she had already put this matter aside and began to do the same to Batna.

As Jenn's aide-de-camp, Enoya didn't just simply collect information. It was also important to know who the person was, what standpoint they stood on, and what angle they used to look at it.

Perhaps there were some things that even Dina didn't notice, but Batna might have.

Only after intersecting, comparing, and connecting with each other could a relatively complete conclusion be reached.

After a not-too-long period of time, Enoya finally finished her work.

She raised her hands and gently swept them across the air like a live conductor. In the next moment, along with Enoya's movements, the two tormented corpses turned into dust and vanished into thin air.

"How is it?

Are there any results? "

Only then did Zayen open his mouth to ask.

Enoya nodded to Jenn's question.

"Yes, Master. If their memories aren't wrong, they sent a patrol team to Brandon Stone City to search for a Saint Statue."

"Saint Statue?"

Jenn knitted his brows. He narrowed his eyes and pondered for a few moments. Then, Jenn's expression sank.

"You mean … the statue of the Saint?"

Enoya nodded to Jenn's answer.

"That's right. They are searching for a Saint Statue.

According to the information they received, this holy statue is sealed somewhere in the depths of Brandon Stone City … "

"I see."

Hearing this, Zayen nodded. He finally understood why Rose wanted to hide this secret.

The so-called Saint referred to the incarnation of a god.

When a god wanted to enter the main plane, in order to ensure that his power wouldn't destroy the entire plane, he would use his own power to create a clone to enter the main plane in his place.

And this was known as the Saint.

According to the records of the Demons, when the Klein Continent was first built, there were many gods and demon kings.

And at that time, due to some unknown reason, the passage between the Sky Kingdom and the Demon World was blocked.

The gods and demon kings were forced to remain in the main plane. In order to find a way back to their homeland, they each took action.

Of course, there were unavoidable battles between the evil demon kings and the incarnations of the good gods. Many gods and demon kings fell in that battle.

There were also some who obtained that position by chance.

For example, God of War Maka was once an ordinary human warrior who enjoyed a great reputation in the main plane.

His hometown was completely destroyed by the flames of war instigated by King of War Bane.

In order to take revenge on Bane, Maka defeated his army under the guidance of a few good saints and killed Bane. In the end, he obtained his divine domain and became a god.

At that time, the entire Klein Continent was in chaos. Saints were everywhere, and demigods were as common as dogs.

In a bar, you could casually throw a bottle over and it was very likely that it would hit a demon king or a saint of the gods.

And a random mountain bandit outside the small forest could be a representative or a follower of some divine power, and they could casually cut down a mountain.

But then, everything suddenly ended without any warning.

One day, people opened their eyes and were shocked to find that the problems that troubled them before had completely disappeared.

The saints were gone, the demon kings were gone, and the entire Klein Continent returned to its original path.

And the world that was filled with the flames of war, smoke, and chaos to the point that it was about to shatter seemed to be just a nightmare. When people woke up from the nightmare, everything would return to normal.

But it wasn't a nightmare.

In this war, many Gods and Demon Kings had fallen.

The entire Divine Kingdom and the Demon World suffered great losses.

Some existences even disappeared from people's memories.

Their corpses turned into ashes and were placed in the Saint Statues.

It could be said that the Saint Statues were the ashes of the gods and demon kings of that era.

However, due to the different identities of the people sleeping inside, the functions of the Saint Statue were also different. From worship to sealing, it depended on how the person in the Saint Statue died.

If Lorci's goal was the Saint Statue, then the Temple of the God of War might also need the same thing.

In other words, the Saint Statue that contained the remains of a god's incarnation.

But this way, the motives of both sides were very suspicious.

God of War Maca fell after the Year of the Saint, and was dragged into the Demon World with his corpse, so he didn't enjoy the 'treatment' of the Saint Statue.

So it was certain that the Temple of the God of War was not looking for Maca's Saint Statue.

And in Zayen's memories, the only one who met the criteria of dying in the Year of the Holy Saints and had the characteristics of a Holy Saint was the former King of War, Bann, who was killed by Maca.

But … Bann was a demon king. Let's not talk about whether he was wandering around in some damned swamp in the lower world, and there was no way he would use the Oracle to get involved with the people of the Divine Kingdom of Sky.

But if that was the case, why did Lorci get involved?

Lorci didn't like war, and she should have kept her distance from the God of War.

But now, Lorci sent people to look for the Saint Statue?

Did this mean that the Saint Statue wasn't Bann's?

If that was the case, whose ashes did it belong to?

Then the next question was …

"Did Lorci reveal any information about the Saint Statue?"

"Apologies, Master.

Matriarch Dina didn't have any detailed information either. It seems that Lorci doesn't want her to know too much. "

"Hmph, as cunning as ever … But that's nothing."

At this thought, Jenn rolled his eyes. Then, as if thinking of something, he nodded slightly.

"I will find a way to get to the bottom of this."
