?After receiving Dn''s message about a possible Transcendent case in the middle-ss neighborhood, Bishop Walls immediately set off with a team of Transcendents for 98 West 10th Street.
The reason why he had gone personally was naturally because of Bryan. Dn had informed that although the serial killer was dead, Bryan had received heavy injuries. And Bryan was Detective Watson''s only student.
Bishop Walls knew very well how much Detective Watson doted on Bryan. Every time he woulde to the Church and meet him, he would always show off his student''s progress.
Therefore, he felt that he had to take some responsibility so as to continue to foster a healthy rtionship with Detective Watson.
Soon, three carriages stopped in front of the two-storied, red-colored building on 98 West 10th Street. Bishop walls stepped off the carriage and led the team of Transcendents to enter the house.
The main door of the house was already opened, however, it had three bullet holes in it. Bishop Walls looked at it for a moment and then proceeded to head inside.
After entering, what came into his view was arge living room with the tables, chairs, and couches all strewn around and mostly destroyed. There was a small pit towards the center of the living room.
One look and he could figure out that a battle had taken ce here. Moreover, there was also some residual spiritual force lingering in the air.
? In one of the corners of the living room, near the stairs that led to the basement, Bishop Walls saw a blondedy in herte teens wearing a white dress standing anxiously. She had a pretty appearance but right now she looked quite miserable.
Half of her blonde hair was covered in blood. Her white dress also had some blood stains on it. Currently, she had her face down as she fidgeted with her fingers,pletely unaware of the people that had entered.
Bishop Walls then turned his gaze to the bloodied figure who was sitting beside her. The figure had his back resting against the wall. One of his legs was straightened out while the other was folded.
This figure was naturally Bryan. His face was covered in blood and so was the top half of the suit he was wearing. Currently, he was sleeping soundly.
Bishop walls shook his head and sighed as he thought, ''This kid, every time I see him he''s always covered in blood.''
He turned around and looked at the burly figure who was wearing a grey suit, a ck trench coat, and a ck top hat and instructed him, "Robert, take your team and take care of the dead body over there."
Robert nodded and replied obediently, "Yes, Father."
Then Robert led a team of six Transcendents to go and investigate what had happened here.
Bishop Walls then looked at the youngdy with brown hair and brown eyes wearing white priest clothes of the Church and said, "Livia,e with me. You need to treat the kid again!"
This youngdy was Priest Livia who had taken care of Bryan after his fight with Johnny more than a month back.
"Did I really need toe here, Father? Bryan looks okay to me, to be honest." Priest Livia pursed her lips.
Bishop walls only shook his head and smiled. Then he instructed another young man in his twenties with short brown hair and brown eyes, "Ron, take the girl outside and ask her about what happened."<novelnext></novelnext>
"Okay," replied Ron. Then he approached the young girl standing beside Bryan.
The blonde young girl was suddenly rmed to find so many people entering the house without her notice. But then she saw Bishop Walls and Priest Livia who were wearing the clothes of the Church of Wisdom and sighed in relief.
Ron approached her and smiled amiably, "Young Miss, my name is Ron. Could you pleasee with me outside and exin to me what happened to you and how you ended up here?"
The blonde youngdy nodded meekly and followed Ron out. After almost experiencing the cold touch of death earlier tonight, she was finally able to rx a little.
Bishop Walls and Priest Livia walked toward the sleeping Bryan. Then thetter crouched down, pointed her right palm at Bryan''s face, and muttered, "Heal."
Green light covered her palm and brightly shone on Bryan.
Bryan on the other hand, who was in a slumber suddenly felt his body feel warm andfortable. The fatigue was gradually diminishing and the injuries he had sustained during the fight were slowly healing.
He weakly opened his eyes and all he could see in his vision was a bright green light. He thought inwardly, ''What is this? Feels so good!''
The green light soon vanished and he saw Priest Livia ring at him, "You little troublemaker! Why are you always getting beaten up? Hmph, I was about to go get some sleep but was forced toe here to heal you."
Bryan was slightly taken aback. Then he smiled bitterly and replied, "My apologies, Priest Livia. I didn''t know the serial killer would turn out to be a Transcendent."
Listening to Bryan apologize, Priest Livia''s eyes softened but she still continued to scold, "Hmph! Next time be more careful. And how the hell can you fall asleep just like that? What if the killer had an aplice?"
Bryan''s expression froze as he thought, ''Fuck! She''s right. I''m so stupid. How could I fall asleep?''
Then he replied seriously, "You''re right. I''ll keep this in mind."
Bishop Walls then came forth and smiled as he asked Bryan, "Child, are you feeling better now?"
Bryan nodded, "Yes, Father. Thank you foring at such ate hour."
Bishop Walls shook his head, "It''s quite all right. It is our duty to handle Transcendent rted cases. In fact, it was wise of you to call us before the police."
Then he added, "Now, Bryan, tell me what transpired here tonight."
Bryan nodded his head and then recounted everything that happened tonight, from the beginning of his investigation to finally rescuing the blonde youngdy from the basement.
