When he got to the key point, he stopped.

Victor observed Hewlett's expression. Hewlett was very calm and did not show any surprise or enthusiasm.

However, this made Victor very satisfied. The most terrifying thing was that Blacklett's attitude was so calm at this time.

With a smile on his lips, Victor gently pushed the frame of his glasses with his fingers. The old butler standing behind Victor immediately understood and made an inviting gesture to Blacklett.

"Mr. Hewlett, please."

In response to Victor's invitation, Helett looked at Leah in the coffin and nodded.

He knew very well that at this moment, Leah was just as Victor had said, and her life countdown had only been temporarily extended.

From only a few seconds originally, it was extended to about seven days.

In order to heal Leah's body, Blacklett should listen to what Victor's plan is and what the holy object that their Williams family is pursuing is.

"Thank you, Victor. Although I don't like being stuck in time by others, you did help me. I hope you won't miss your time next time."

[Victor has long known that his Williams family's ancestral "bed" can prolong Leah's life, but he has never told you. ]

[Before, Victor was just testing you in a mysterious way. He was like an old fox, testing whether you really cared about Leah. Only then would Victor be willing to let Leah prepare a "bed". ]

[You have already noticed this, so you give Victor a small warning. You don't like Victor making fun of you and Leah.]

"I'm so sorry my friend. Believe me, I will show up in time next time and won't let you down. I hope our friendship can last a little longer."

In response to Blacklett's warning, Victor remained graceful and smiled.

Chapter 25 Holy Grail, do you crave power?

[You left with Victor in an ice cream truck.]

[Surprisingly, Victor and his family actually live in a small alley. The ice cream truck was borrowed from someone else to work. Victor lives in a small clinic.]

[The residents around here have great respect for Victor. They did not find it strange to see the coffin containing Leah. Instead, they encouraged Blacklett and said that Dr. Victor was very good and had cured many people.]

[It seems that Victor's 'blood therapy' potion does not necessarily turn people into beasts. At least judging from the reactions of these residents, Victor does know how to treat diseases.]

[But you are still unsure whether Victor deliberately turned those people into beasts or his 'blood therapy' medicine is not perfect. You think it might be the former.]

[After settling Leah down, you and Victor sat down face to face, and he began to tell you his purpose.]

"Our Williams family studies how to gain powerful strength. We have the bloodline of demon vampires. We can improve our magic power and prolong our lifespan by absorbing different blood."

Victor pointed at the old butler beside him with his red vertical pupils and pale skin and introduced him.

If Blacklett had any interest in the Williams family, Victor would not have revealed his secrets to Blacklett here.

In order to get Heilite to join, Victor should also show some sincerity.

"We are different from the Thor family. The Thor family used mixed blood for experiments, attempting to artificially intervene to strengthen the bloodline of their offspring, hoping to create their ideal perfect offspring. The result is the tragedy that happened to Miss Leah today."

"We in the Williams family don't like to conduct experiments on our own people. We just collect all kinds of blood. The higher the magic power contained in the blood, the more valuable it is. Although there is some magic power in the blood of ordinary citizens, the blood of nobles is more cost-effective and relatively difficult to obtain."

"However, in this era, the blood of the nobles has gradually become thinner, which is a very troubling thing for our Williams family. So I developed a 'blood therapy' potion, which purifies the collected blood and makes it into a 'blood therapy' potion. However, the effect is not very stable yet, and it is still under experimentation."

This is why Victor and the Williams family created beastmen, and why they attacked the nobles and the Thor family.

Blacklett was not surprised at all. The reason why nobles were nobles was because of their blood. The magic power in the blood of nobles exceeded that of ordinary citizens.

Of course, Hewlett is an exception.

Bishop Rhett was actually also a minor nobleman, but he disdained the status of aristocracy. He had long since given up his noble title and chose to join the Holy Church.

"Oh, so what?" Black Light listened to Victor's self-introduction very calmly.

Victor said this now just to make Blacklett feel good about the Williams family and to show that the Williams family was not a bad group of people.

But this doesn’t matter to Blacklett. It doesn’t matter whether the Williams family is good or bad. Now Blacklett just wants to know the holy relic.

The holy object is worthy of the Williams family's cooperation and sharing with him, and it is also the only hope for Blacklett to treat Leah.

"We, the Williams family, have always been searching for a holy object, the 'Holy Grail'."

Seeing that Blacklett had no patience, Victor stopped keeping him in suspense.

When Hearing the name "Holy Grail", Helett remembered the name appearing in the secret books given to him by Bishop Leiter.

[The Holy Grail, that is the legendary holy object. ]

[I heard that as long as you get the Holy Grail, you can make a wish to it, and the Holy Grail can fulfill any of your wishes. ]

[Whether it is immortality, becoming a king who rules the world, or becoming a god. ]

[Once upon a time, a human magician obtained the Holy Grail and made a wish to it, which led to the creation of the world we know today.]

[There is no doubt that every time the Holy Grail appears, it will cause a war, but it has been more than a thousand years since the last time the Holy Grail appeared. Now not many people even believe in the existence of the Holy Grail, and they just regard it as a legend.]

"Do you know where the Holy Grail is?"

Blacklett's interest was aroused. He didn't quite believe in the existence of the Holy Grail before. After all, it was something that only appeared more than a thousand years ago.

But now that Victor has said this, the existence of the Holy Grail is almost certain.

"My dear friend, Hei Lai Te, you don't want to make a wish to the Holy Grail to heal Miss Leah's body, do you? You know, it is an omnipotent wish-granting machine. You can even rule the world, but you use it to heal your lover?"

Victor's expression suddenly changed. He looked at Blacklett with a weird look, and his tone of voice became a little exaggerated.

This is somewhat ironic.

However, the old butler standing behind Victor did not look at Hei Lai Te. When the old butler heard what Victor said to Hei Lai Te, he was looking at Victor.

"It's too early to tell what to do with the Holy Grail if we get it. We don't know if the Holy Grail exists yet. I'm just listening to you. I don't like to open champagne at halftime."

Black Light was not affected by Victor's emotions at all. His calmness surprised Victor a little and made Victor, who was a little excited just now, realize his own loss of composure.

He reached out and adjusted the frame of his glasses, and the expression on his face recovered and he smiled again.

"I am sorry for the inconvenience. Indeed, although we have some guesses, we are still unable to pinpoint the exact location of the Holy Grail."

Victor's words made Hei Lai Te a little unhappy, and Hei Lai Te didn't want to be fooled.

You just said there is a Holy Grail, and now you say you don’t know where it is. Isn’t that just nonsense?

Could it be that Victor wanted him to go find the Holy Grail now? Although Leah was temporarily stable because of the Williams family's coffin, she only had a week to live.

Blacklett didn't think that seven days would be enough for him to find the Holy Grail, and Victor's answer obviously made him very dissatisfied.

Sensing Blacklet's dissatisfaction, Victor quickly explained: "But we have found the fake Holy Grail and already know its exact location. Our goal is not the real Holy Grail, but the fake Holy Grail. We only need the fake Holy Grail to solve our problems."

Fake Holy Grail? Heilite remembered that this term was also mentioned in Bishop Leiter's secret books, but there was no further explanation.

It’s just that the secret book says that the “false Holy Grail” can prove that the real Holy Grail exists and it is the shadow of the Holy Grail.

In fact, most of the "Holy Grails" discovered by the public are "fake Holy Grails". Unlike the "Holy Grail", the "fake Holy Grail" is a real existence that has been witnessed.

Even so, the fake Holy Grail is rarely discovered or found, but at least the fake Holy Grail is a little more real than the Holy Grail.

"What is the use of the fake Holy Grail? Can the fake Holy Grail restore Leah's body? Can it allow Leah to live healthily?"

Blacklett stared at Victor closely, and if there was any hesitation on Victor's face, he would immediately overturn the table.

Victor understood what Blacklett meant, and nodded immediately without even having time to push up his glasses.

"Of course, as long as you get the pseudo-holy grail, you can get the 'holy water'. The 'holy water' has the ability to enhance your magical physique, strengthen your own bloodline, and cure all diseases and curses. Naturally, it can also heal Miss Leah's body."

【At this point, you have found a target. 】

[Although I don’t know whether this goal will definitely achieve your wish, it is at least a clear goal. ]

[Compared to the tormenting days before when you could only look through the information to find some forbidden magic, now you know what you have to do next. ]

Chapter 26 What Do You Want?

Blacklett was very happy to have obtained the information about the "fake Holy Grail" from Victor, as he finally grasped a hope.

However, Helett still has to be cautious before obtaining the "fake Holy Grail".

Any reward comes at a price, and Heilite knows this.

"Then what is the price I need to pay? You must really want to get the 'Fake Holy Grail', right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have the information about the 'Fake Holy Grail'. The 'Fake Holy Grail' is also useful to your Williams family, right?"

The Williams family did not try to seize the 'fake Holy Grail' themselves, but now shared the secret with Blacklett. That must be because the 'fake Holy Grail' is not so easy to obtain.

Heilite knew nothing about the specific details of the "fake Holy Grail".

The first thing he needs to be careful of now is Victor in front of him and the Williams family behind him.

"of course."

Victor admitted this with open arms and without hesitation. It was nothing that needed to be hidden.

"We in the Williams family need blood to maintain our body functions. If we don't drink blood for a long time, we will become very weak, unless we give up our magic power like I did."

"That's why most of our family members have to go into hibernation, just like hibernating animals to save their energy consumption."

"And the 'holy water' of the 'pseudo-holy grail' can strengthen the effect of blood, and can also create a higher-grade blood crystal 'philosopher's stone' for us. This 'philosopher's stone' is enough to wake up a family member from his long sleep."

The Philosopher's Stone is a diamond-shaped blood-red crystal.

Looking at the crystal in Victor's palm that was not even half the size of a fingernail, Black Light could feel the magical fluctuations from it that should not be underestimated.

That was indeed a good thing. The old butler behind Victor was quite nervous, as if he was afraid that Blacklett would suddenly snatch away this precious "Philosopher's Stone".

Unfortunately, Blacklett had no such idea at all. The "holy water" that had been made into the "philosopher's stone" had completely become a consumable item exclusively for magic replenishment and the Williams family, and could not make up for Leah's physical defects.

"Since this 'Philosopher's Stone' is made of holy water, if I can snatch this 'Philosopher's Stone' now and feed it to Leah, then I don't have to fight for the 'Fake Holy Grail'?"

Although Heilite's tone seemed to be joking, it did make the old butler behind Victor tense up instantly.

"It's useless. Holy water is the raw material, and the Philosopher's Stone is a processed product. The Philosopher's Stone has lost the magical healing effect of holy water and has instead satisfied the Williams family's thirst for blood and magic power. Even if Leah eats the Philosopher's Stone, it will only simply replenish her magic power. Only holy water can heal Miss Leah's body."

Victor explained calmly that this man was always in control of everything.

"How much holy water is in that 'pseudo-holy grail'?"

Heilite checked how much he would be paid.

He was not very clear about the information about the "fake Holy Grail", but some accounts had to be settled in advance.

"Don't worry, my friend. The holy water in the 'pseudo-holy grail' is enough for you to cure Miss Liya's physical defects. The rest is enough for me to make more 'philosopher's stones'."

Victor smiled and assured Blacklett that after ensuring Leah's portion first, the rest would be his.
