Luca, returning to El-Melloi, also in the suburbs of London, not far from the Clock Tower headquarters—perhaps now more accurately called 'Lewester House'—quietly calculated the time.

It is the time when the 'Miniature World Dragon' appeared on the earth's surface.

It was also the time for him to reclaim what he called the 'legacy of his ancestors'.

Time passed, and the night deepened. The world was now enveloped in darkness. The evening breeze stirred the grass and trees in the courtyard, causing them to undulate like the fur of a giant beast. Lu Kang slowly sat up straight from the recliner and suddenly spoke.

"Come out."

His clear and melodious voice drowned out the sobbing wind.

The world stood still for a moment.

then,

And then, as if in response, footsteps appeared—following them out.

"Has he been discovered... No wonder he is the most vicious and evil person, the successor of 'Louis'."

The newcomer's voice was clear and gentle, seemingly peaceful, yet it carried a chilling killing intent that drew nearer from afar.

The newcomer had short, dark blue hair and a petite figure, yet her shadow stretched very long under the lamplight in the courtyard.

The black and white collared nun's habit swayed gently, tightening around the girl's delicate body.

The skirt, trailing on the ground, swayed gently.

It also seemed to radiate a chilling light.

With a sudden commotion, a faint purple light appeared!

From left to right, from front to back, three jet-black dagger-like 'black keys' that had somehow ended up on the grass around Lu Kang gleamed and were connected to each other, radiating a mysterious glow.

The barrier that was erected immediately surrounded Lu Kang.

Like a cage erected in an instant.

The visitor continued, "But the trajectory of the most vicious and wicked person should never have any successors!"

Lu Kang, who had just sat up, glanced through the so-called 'cage' at the suddenly arriving figure. Seeing the nun's attire, he immediately realized that the other party was from the 'church'. He couldn't help but sigh that even though only a few days had passed, the speed of the unified 'church' was indeed much faster than that of the disorganized magician.

He was even more puzzled.

"What discovery?"

"Although your methods of concealing your presence are indeed no match for me—but I can tell you—it's not you."

Lu Kang slowly extended his hand.

Amidst the astonished gazes of the newcomers, they touched the barrier she had mysteriously erected upon the black keys, and watched as Lu Kang's hand slowly passed through it, as if it were an object.

This is a unique "art" called 'Sanctuary', which combines magic and miracles.

Although not particularly powerful, it is more than enough to trap an ordinary magician.

However, she considered that such a move might be instantly defeated by Luvist's successors.

But I never expected to be completely ignored.

Without losing the spell's inherent ability to ignore penetration...

"Your skill in combining secrets and magic is not bad, but it's still a little lacking."

Lu Kang got up and walked out as if he had passed through a wall.

He glanced at the young nun opposite him, whose eyes were slightly narrowed and whose expression was serious, and simply smiled.

In the vast darkness of night.

The lights on all sides seemed to dim in an instant.

Two blazing flames, like wheels, suddenly shone behind him.

No.

That's not 'fire'.

That is...

"The eye of a dragon!"

A miniature world of dragons.

That was the figure that Lu Kang had truly discovered!

Roar!

The nun from the church retreated again and again, savoring Lu Kang's words of praise for the combination of mystery and wonder. She stared at the scene before her, at the world dragon, her mind buzzing and vibrating, and she inexplicably thought of a certain possibility.

I thought of something...

A proverb passed down from ancient times!

Chapter 86 The Origin of the Burial Mechanism and the Night Raid on Lorelei

The dragon's fiery eyes rose up behind him, floating like two small sun crowns, overshadowing the bright lights in the courtyard. The dragon's body did not appear, but instead transformed into an invisible 'world egg' the instant Lu Kang sensed the arrival of outsiders, appearing around him.

Albion, the World Dragon, was a primordial dragon species buried deep beneath the earth of this isolated country surrounded by water. Its true form was a colossal creature exceeding two thousand meters in length, and it inherently contained the concept of 'world'. Therefore, even though Lu Kang pieced together an incomplete, miniature version of it using the mystery and concepts remaining after its death, the speed at which it unfolded the 'world egg' was still only an instant.

No chanting or preparation is required.

It can be accomplished in an instant simply by having a thought in one's heart.

The world egg that unfolds within it contains nothing but dense and intense dragon flames, so intense that only Lu Kang's divine body can withstand them, and which he can manipulate with his inner true ether. These flames, generated by the dragon, are powerful enough to destroy all matter and disintegrate all mysteries!

Pure destruction, reaching an extreme, explosive, divine-level temperature.

Although limited by the incomplete concept and the rejection of the inherent barrier of the Great Source Environment by the erosion of the world itself, this world egg cannot expand to its maximum size and can only transform into two points like the eyes of the sun's corona, hanging high at the top.

However, the power that unfolds from this

It is still enough to fill the gap in Lu Kang's 'mind magic', which, although he is all-powerful, lacks a true focus and is less lethal among those with equal powers.

This gives him an edge in direct combat!

This is a 'living creature'.

In a way, it is also the 'magical attire' that Lu Kang has prepared for himself in this modern world.

At this moment, the formal attire has been fully unfolded.

at this time.

Miniature dragons, revealing mystery!

Yes.

Although Lu Kang was considering how much power his 'miniature dragon' could unleash in modern times, he also took the church girl who had suddenly appeared and attacked him very seriously.

Although his words were full of contempt, he was only belittling tactics, not strategies.

He gazed at the girl's face and posture, her features becoming even clearer under the illumination of the fiery dragon's eyes, and his initial guess about her identity had now been confirmed.

Short, dark blue hair, nun's attire, a mysterious aura combining secrets and magic—all these qualities belong to no one he knows.

He was a church agent and one of the members of this generation's burial agency.

Furthermore, it is the seventeenth reincarnation host prepared by the Serpent of Akasha for itself, a product left behind after its reincarnation failed.

"Hiel, codenamed 'Bow'".

That combination of miracles and magic is of the same origin as Roya's style.

The combination of throwing skills and mystical combat abilities is a characteristic of the Church's agents.

If the two are combined, there will be no one else but 'Hiel'.

Lu Kang, who uttered his name, calmly said, "If you want to erase 'Luvist's' traces—you'll have to see if you're qualified!"

Tactics that are taken lightly, strategies that are taken extremely seriously.

Although Lu Kang had suppressed the first generation of the Reincarnated Serpent, mysterious wars are never inevitable. A slight oversight or a slight advantage can easily lead to a defeat for the weak.

Lu Kang had repeatedly defeated stronger opponents despite being the weaker one.

Naturally, we will not be careless in the slightest.

Looking at the young girl who was acting as a representative of the church, he truly channeled all the mystical power he possessed into his body and activated it to its maximum potential.

The blue-haired girl, who had paused after taking a step back, raised her eyes, her nun's robes ruffled in the strong wind.

She took a deep breath and slowly raised her hand...

"The central authority of Tantric Buddhism, 'Hiel'—Elesia, pay homage to 'the descendant of Tuvar'—pay homage to His Holiness the only orthodox master of Tantric Buddhism, the supreme pope!"

The girl bent down and knelt without hesitation.

Lu Kang: "?"

...

"So, you mean you were actually a member of the fourth branch of the Church, the Secret Cult, which was founded in France by Victoire himself?"

After a while.

Lu Kang sat back down in the chaise lounge in the courtyard, looking at the girl who was still kneeling, her long legs slightly bent backward, her round buttocks perky under her nun's clothes, her back arched and straightened like a bow, her delicate face raised. He was speechless at the explanation for her sudden kneeling and subsequent unveiling of all her mysterious behavior.

Although the integration of Tantric Buddhism into the Church and the subsequent internal 'division' of it was his dying wish as 'Victor', and it was something he did in order to 'canonize' himself within the Church and expand his influence.

But this subsequent development still took him by surprise.

He had not anticipated the matters that Hierle, a girl whose real name was Arecia and who came from France, had just uttered.

"It's not just me."

Hierre said: "The entire burial agency, which is independent of the church and only obeys the revelatory commands issued by the supreme pope in the name of 'the Lord', is actually the headquarters of the esoteric religion itself."

"Its history can be traced back to 600 years ago. It was established by the then-Grey Bishop François Leclerc du Tremblay after he led Tantric Buddhism back to the Roman Catholic Church. It was an organization that was not affiliated with the Papacy itself and was set up separately to maintain the great independence of Tantric Buddhism."

“We who are involved in the burial mechanism can all be considered members of the esoteric sect!”

Upon hearing these words of confirmation, Lu Kang's eyebrows twitched slightly as he recalled the arrangements he had made in France six hundred years ago before his death. He thought of the gray-robed bishop, whom he had entrusted as the Grand Master of the Secret Church and who held a position second only to himself within the Secret Church.

That... the second-generation Roa host that has not yet awakened the memories of the Akasha Serpent.

Was it because of the change in the world line caused by my appearance?

Following the normal trajectory, the burial organization should have been founded by the first generation of Roya, not the second generation—and certainly not by 'esoteric Buddhism'.

At this moment, Lu Kang was genuinely surprised.

It was unexpected, yet also somewhat enlightening.

Suddenly it dawned on him: no wonder the church at the time did not send any other members of the burial agency besides Roja to hunt him down.

It seems there were no burial facilities back then.

It can only be said that the church's information is too secretive, and whether in the past or present, it is even more difficult for Lu Kang to fully understand it.

It can only be said that Lu Kang left behind a maxim within the esoteric Buddhist community, using a unique miniature world dragon as his symbol, so that he could inherit his past achievements.

Even though he didn't think a simple proverb could make the monsters inside the Burial Agency 'submit'—it might even provoke them to tear each other apart more frantically.

But at least, one can receive feedback from someone like Hier, who is truly influenced by the teachings of Tantra.

According to Hierre herself, she did not become a member of the cult after joining the Burial Agency; she was originally French, and her parents were believers in the cult—so her faith in the cult was genuine.

Even if Hierre's existence is most likely an isolated case.

However, Lu Kang himself did not think that taking back what was rightfully his was a simple matter.

Especially when he left this thing with the enemy—so that when he took it away, he could also take the enemy's things as well!

"'Alesia,' get up,"

After gathering his thoughts, Lu Kang said, "The esoteric teachings did not order you to kneel before anyone, not even me."

"Yes."

Hierl staggered to his feet, about to say something as well.

Perhaps because she had been kneeling for too long, or perhaps because she was excited to see the 'protagonist' she had heard in all the stories since childhood, this church representative girl, who should have been skilled in martial arts, suddenly stumbled and instinctively fell forward.

Fortunately, Lu Kang reached out and grabbed her.
