Abe the Wizard

Of course, the saint learned his lesson after Thief God Milton stole from the Holy Kingdom.

This holy barrier was made for another invasion. Although it needed continuous faith for support, the saint still thought it was worth it.

Indeed, there was no way Thief God Milton could bypass it alone, no matter how good he was at imitating magic circles.

But everything changed since Abel's angel statue had the same energy as the demon from beyond.

After Thief God Milton passed the barrier, Abel directly controlled it to the side temple.

Unlike the main temple, there was not a single knight on guard.

It was already dark, and it was time for praying. Which allowed Thief God Milton to enter smoothly without a single one noticing.

After going through a few courtyards where the most prestigious figure lived, he arrived at his target.

He had two choices. One was to break the defense and directly murder Knight Keynes.

This would be very risky, but it gave him a greater chance of escaping.

Second was to wait outside for Knight Keynes to come out and make a life taking strike.

But this might take a long time, and Thief God Milton would be in greater danger the longer he waited.

At the same time, he might be surrounded by all the knights in the temple if he missed.

"Let's just go for the kill now!" Abel quickly decided. Killing inside could at least block out his energy.

Considering how much attitude knight Keynes had, some chaotic energy might not catch too much attention.

Up to this point, Thief God Milton placed his hand on the door.

There were many complicated circles on the surface, including surveillance, alert, and analysis circles. But they were all hopeless against Thief God Milton.

Soon, his energy fully merged with the energy of the Courtyard.

At the same time, an altered power of the will reached towards the gap of the door and twisted.

If thief god Milton's power of the will was not god rank, no way, he could do this.

Also, since he was controlled by Abel, his soul was at peace, and it wouldn't alert Knight Keynes.

After all, it was what made Thief God Milton so powerful in the assassination.

The door quietly swung open, and Thief God Milton swooped in before it closed again like nothing happened.

Meanwhile, Abel held back Thief God Milton's consciousness, only to the point where he was able to maintain control.

Abel was expecting Knight Keynes to strike at any moment, and he already had the dark gold poison on hand for the kill, but then unexpected things soon happened.

Where is knight Keynes? Why isn't he coming out already?

Thief God Milton was powerful, but a god rank Knight should be able to notice him at such range.

Abel was a little suspicious, but he still glanced at the rooms with the corner of his eyes.

Suddenly, he noticed the doors of the rooms were not even lost.

So he took out a poison antidote and gave himself 5 seconds of poison resistance.

He then took out the bottle of dark gold life poison. It was nothing to play around with, even for a holy body.

Immediately, Abel felt himself calming down.

The life poison was not good for battles in an open space since it needed accuracy, but they were in a courtyard. Knight Keynes would be dead even if a drop touched him/

Abel continued to move on Thief God Milton but did not use his power of the will for scanning.

Could something happen to Knight Keynes?

He could clearly sense some life force around, but he just had no idea that Knight Keynes was actually sent to sleep by the Guardian Wings, and his alertness was held back to a minimum.

If he knew, there was no way for him to even sneak around like this.

Finally, Thief god Milton flew into a door and immediately saw Knight Keynes laying flat with his chest on a table.

He was stunned. A god rank fell asleep just like that? How careless.

But no matter what, it was the perfect opportunity.

Therefore, Abel was no longer planning to use the full bottle of those life poisons. He only had 5 bottles in total, and things with the power to harm god ranks were not easy to get. After all, sea monster invasions don't happen every day.

Since Knight Keynes had lost his powerful senses in a sleep, there was no need for Abel to poison him through the air.

Instead, Thief God Milton entered that weird state where his consciousness was held back by Abel and flew forward on autopilot.

Since Abel was so worried, he added another bottle of antidote on Thief God Milton.

Knight Keynes never had a good night of sleep in a long time, so the slumber he was in after the demon from beyond's energy soothed him was unlike anything else.

Although as a god rank, he was basically on the same level as the demon from beyond, nothing would change the fact that he was a follower.

It has been too long since he had a dream. He almost forgot what it was like.

The dream he had was standing beside his lord as a guard and sense in the energy around.

It was great, and his soul was being nourished from within.

It was at that moment, a holy beam shined upon him, and he thought his lord was about to level up his soul. But suddenly, that beam turned into a huge demon.

A demon with a serious threat of death.

He immediately opened his eyes. It was all a dream, but at the same time, he sensed a black drop of liquid landing towards him.

Since he was totally unprepared and his body was fully relaxed, his reaction speed was much slower.

It was too late to dodge, so he directly moved a strand of holy power out to block. He didn't even have enough time to move energy from his world.

All of a sudden, everything slowed down in front of him, and he could clearly sense that black droplet made contact with his holy power. But soon, he noticed a spark of dark gold within the droplet before it directly penetrated his holy power.

The slowed down he experienced was an instant I've reaction he had in the face of the utmost threat. He might have a huge breakthrough if he managed to survive.

Finally, the black droplet landed on his body and directly penetrated his golden armor as well.

He sensed a slight chill in his skin before his entire body went numb. It happened so fast, he did not even have the time to react.

All he could do was to try his best to stop the numbness from entering his brain and heart.

He was certain through his intuition that he was right in front of his eyes.

He used his world to block in front of his brain and heart, but it was hopeless.

Only a single drop of life poison had made a mighty knight like him lose all strength.

Thief God Milton unleashed his power of the will and monitored Knight Keynes' condition.

"What a pity!"

Knight Keynes was burning up his world to counteract the power of the poison.

A world might be able to counter the poison if it was in mid-flight, but the poison has already entered Knight Keynes' body, and his body has lost all functions.

He couldn't even unleash his power of the will since that would mean making contact with the Life poison and completely having his power of the will destroyed.
