Constantine coldly, turning around.
Wilbur barked out a laugh. He leaped into the lake and scooped up the Blood Embryo, then tossed it into his demiplane before returning to shore.
The three of them then walked up to Suelyn.
Suelyn had returned to her original form, a slender woman with stunning features. Her face was pale, however, and wounds littered her body. She was on her last breath.
âSheâs still alive?â Eileen exclaimed.
Constantine sighed. âShe wonât be for much longer.â
Just then, Suelyn looked at the three of them as she flashed a pained laugh. âIâm finally free. Thank you.â
She closed her eyes after that, taking her last breath.
Wilbur frowned at Suelynâs corpse wordlessly.
Eileen said, âThe Skull Cultâs finally ended, and the remaining gangs under them wonât really be a problem. Iâll be on my way, then. Have a good day.â
She turned to leave after that.
Constantine put his palms together, and a ray of holy light enveloped Suelynâs body. She was cleansed just like that, disappearing without a trace.
Wilbur glanced at the shackles on Constantineâs wrists in confusion. âWhat do you have

Constantine shrugged. âThe Pope expelled me, but he did not strip me of my title and powers as Cardinal.
I might not be able to return to the church, but Iâm still a member of the Holy Illuminati.â
âWhy is that?â Wilbur asked.
Constantine sighed. âThe Pope and I have some differing values, and soâ¦â
âDamn, youâre a tough one too.â Wilbur could not help but marvel.
The Church of Holy Illuminati was the biggest religion in the entire world, and the Pope could be said to
hold power.
Constantine was a great of how powerful church was.
He was else, able hold differing opinions with the Pope on faith and still be able to leave the church alive.
Not like was any of Wilburâs business. âAlright, then, Safe travels from here. Goodbye.â
Wilbur turned to leave .
Constantine stood there for a while, before sighing and leaving as well.
Ryder sat the passenger seat on the way back. âIâm sorry I wasnât able to help during the battle, Deacon Penn.â
âItâs fine, everything wouldâve turned out the same anyway,â Wilbur said.
Ryder frowned. âAre you sure Suelyn Onyx is dead?â
âShe was torched to ashes under the holy light of the Church of Holy Illuminati. I doubt sheâd be able to come back to life.â
âThatâs good. Will you be writing the report, or should I?â
âWe have to write a report?â Wilbur almost drove the car into a ditch.
âOf course, and it has to be extremely detailed. Weâll be rewarded with some funds after that for doing a good job.â
âAlright, fine. I told you everything that happened, right? Just write the report based on that. Iâll take a look. at it when youâre done.â
âYes, sir.â
