Chapter 230: Edith

Without any hesitation, Charles took a step forward and moved.

For the next few seconds, he studied the new ability and soon came to an understanding.

'This ability is draining my mental energy continuously… The reason I didn't face much obstacle is definitely due to the Inner World. This world is created by my imagination and my control over this world is very high. But in the maternal world, I'm just a foreigner. Unless I completely grasp the secrets of 'Time,' I won't able to use this ability at all. Well, as long as I have enough time, I have a big advantage to learn the secrets of the Present Time.' Charles nodded inwardly and focused his attention on the original mission.

'Hmm, my next target is to capture the Amber Church's Archbishop Royce. He is the one who put 'Amber Curse' on me and also manipulated Bella Collins to appear here. Not only that, but he seemed to have some ties with Red Prince. Wait... In Elder's memories, I heard that 'Elder' also had some ties with a higher official of a lawful Church... If not for this higher official, he wouldn't have got his hands on a Demon's bloodline and became a Warlock. Could these two really be the same person?' He was shocked by his own thought.

'Troublesome... But I can't rule out the possibility... If both of them are the same person, then I will be in deep sh*t... Amber Church... The eerie woman's voice... Is she Goddess of Wealth, Zephine?' Charles's face turned stiff all of a sudden.

'I will find out the truth once I capture this Archbishop. But he must be a Rank-4 Mystic and killing or capturing him alive without alerting other Rank-4 Mystics is almost impossible. So I need to gather more information about him.' He muttered inwardly and silently left the Inner World.

The next instant, he opened his eyes in the physical world, looked at his right side and saw a white-haired old man was seated on the ladder back chair.

"You have been staying in the same position for the past 5 days." Oswald said in a cold tone.

"My body had long reached the realm of Extraordinary. So I won't die because of few days of hunger." He replied casually and stood up from the concrete floor.

Meanwhile, Oswald let out a helpless sigh and asked.

"What's your next plan?"

"Archbishop Royce." Charles suddenly paused and hurriedly took out a notebook, golden quill, and half-finished ink bottle.

Then, went near the wooden table, placed them on it and started to write something in the notebook.

As Oswald looked at the page, his amber eyes squinted all of a sudden.

"Demonic Church believers? Moreover, all of them are nobles?" Even he was startled inside.

Meanwhile, Charles nodded his head and started to speak.

"Yes, this kingdom is already plagued by these cult members. More than 34 noble houses are filled with believers of Demonic Church. They also have some ties with disappearance of young kids. I want you to give an important mission to Jessie. Tell her to make every one of these nobles as her slaves within 3 months. Hmm, also tell her to not leave any clues behind."

"If the Churches finds out-"

Before Oswald could finish his words, Charles raised his hand, rubbed his chin and spoke.

"Don't worry about them. We are not slaving innocent peoples anyway. Those nobles are evil cult members and have done countless crimes." He deliberated for a moment and soon added with a smile.

"Send a letter to Bishop Myles and tell him about the situation. Also, ask him to give us a permission letter to do a 'cleansing' in the name of Goddess Rodia."

"Cleansing... What are you planning?" Oswald stared at him for a moment before sighed.

"I'm just trying to complete the main mission." On the other hand, Charles said with a mysterious smile on his face and cast [Flame Teleportation] spell on himself.

The next instant, his whole body, enveloped in a crimson flame and soon disappeared from there!

...

Highlander Street, Commoners' District, City of Iron.

It was around 4 P.M.

There stood a single stored brick house in the right side corner of the street road and appeared isolated from the rest of the buildings. Due to the poor maintenance, the outer walls were filled with black marks and looked gloomier.

The old building was encircled in a one-meter tall wooden fence, and multiple vine plants and weeds filled the outer yard.

At that moment, a humanoid flame appeared suddenly in the reception room and soon formed into the figure of a 23-year old looking young man.

First, Charles glanced around the surroundings and soon relaxed as he noticed that no one was nearby.

'Okay. It's time for acting.' He curled his lips upward, raised his right hand and touched his face.

The next instant, his olive skin became darker and darker and soon formed into a tan-colored one!

Simultaneously, his slightly rough facial skin also began to turn shinier and smoother, like a young woman's face.

'Next is hair-color.' He muttered inwardly and concentrated his attention on his hair.

A moment later, his slightly long deep-blue hair grew steadily and only stopped when it reached the waist area. Then, the hair color also started to turn darker and formed into a pitch-black in color!

'Hmm, next step is medium-sized breasts and body shape.' Charles closed his eyes and began to concentrate on how to change his body.

Once he changed his body into a female one, he took out a set of female cloth from his space ring and wore it.

After that, he entered his Inner World, sealed almost all of the important memories about 'Divine' 'Archbishop Royce' and 'Rodia's gem' in his clone's consciousness and told him to keep them hidden.

After that, he left the Inner World and began to do some facial makeup.

...

A few minutes later, a long black-haired woman in her late twenties walked out of the old brick house and glanced around the surroundings. Her oval face shone in evening sunlight and appeared beautiful.

She had deep-blue eyes, an apple-shaped body, tan skin, and looked around 176 cm high.

She wore a double-breasted trench coat, tight black leather pants, and black boots.

This was Charles's female identity, Edith Oliver!

'Wow, this feels so real.' Charles touched the soft chest area and became speechless for a moment.

But soon, he dismissed the cursed thought and started walking out of the house.

'Hmm, my original plan appeared very vague... If I want to fool the... Tsk, I sealed my memories, huh.' He clicked his tongue and began to read his current mission.

'First, I have to go to 67 Grove Street in Merchants' District, capture a man named Casey and absorbs his memories before killing him. Then, I have to take a drop of his blood, inject it into my vein and transform into him using the shape-shift skill. After that, I have to enter my 'Inner World' and learn about the next plan...'
