Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel - Chapter 518
Chapter 518: Nora’s Trauma
Eunid stood in front of the room, pacing back and forth.
He had been doing this for a while now. just then, a man wearing white robes but with a red cross on his chest stepped out of the room. red on the custom white of the holy church was the symbol of a cleric. He also had another insignia at one side of his chest, signifying the family he had come from.
“Cleric, is there any improvement?” Eunid ask with optimism on his face. However, the cleric shook his head. “She is still suffering from post traumatic stress disorder from what happened to her. I have tried a few prayers of heavenly healing from the god Kindness, but it seems to have no effect whatsoever on her.”
“What do you mean?” Eunid asked.
“The god kindness is merciful in his reaching and lending out a hand, even PTSD is not above is power to heal. But that does not work. Every time I cast the blessing, his holy power is repelled.”
“Repelled?” Eunid had a frown on his face.
The Cleric stepped closer, whispering into Eunid’s ears. “I have heard the rumors, young master Eunid. About this slave girl cultivator you seem to treasure so much. Your servants say she is cursed. Screaming in the night about flames and a brother that hunts her in her sleep. I also know that you purchased her from very unusual sources.”
Eunid frowned.
“I may not be a member of the Diligence Family, but my candid advice young master Eunid, is to find a way to get rid of this one. If what I heard is true, she might have been touched by a pagan god. The House of Diligence is not doing so well at the moment, they is no need to complicate things any further for yourself.”
After he said this, Eunid gave him a forced smile, as he nodded at him and watched him leave.
After he was gone, Butler Old fang stepped forward, “Young master, forgive my indulgence in your matters, but i must say, the clerics of the Kindness family are the most expensive in the Holy Lands. At this rate, you might end up spending double of what you spent buying her. Even though The Old master permitted her stay, I doubt he would permit the merger resources of the family used in such a manner.”
Eunid frowned, “I know… But.. But I just can’t help but feel that there is something we are missing. Something of importance we were supposed to watch out for. I can feel it is at the back of my mind, but I just can’t…” He frowned in frustration.
“The goddess diligence told me where to find her, but…”
“…Did not tell you on what to do.” The butler finished is statement.
Eunid sighed in frustration. But he looked up to the Butler, “so you believe me now?”
“I believe a lot of things young master. Pigs can soar the skies like dragons, and a Pegasus can become a princess.”
“Old Fang!” Eunid warned with cressed brows.
The butler chuckled a bit, “nevertheless young master, it has already been two months since you brought her here. Since that time, she barely eats unless when tied down by the guards, and liquid food forced down her throat.
She is scared of the lights, stating its flames were going to burn her, and then she is also scared of the darkness screaming that the Beast people were out to get her. She also does not wish to wash herself and continues to self harm, which in turn, pushes you to summon clerics.”
Eunid sighed again.
“Master Eunid, I suggest that you start seeing this lower born girl as a failed investment, and fix your gaze on the future. After all, your uncle will be returning from the battle front soon. I heard his favor with the other family members as improved. He has even gone so far as to make alliances with some important people of the other Virtue families. Basically, he has been improving his influence and power both within and outside the family.”
Eunid raised a brow at this. “Don’t worry, that does not matter. It does not stop the fact that he is still a fool.” Eunid waved his hand dismissively.
Old fang massaged his brows a bit, “you may be heir and have the approval of the Magicians, but please remember that they are not one of the Virtues and will never be one. Their descendants still have to go through the punishment of the Cardinal sins as they grow in power, while the members of the Virtue families are tied by blood and oath and can follow the part of Virtue.
In fact, one might say that your uncle is already doing an incredible job at Diligence. Even though his cultivation is…”
Eunid’s eyes suddenly brightened as he turned to the butler. “What did you say?”
“I said your uncle is doing an…”
“No! After that.”
“His Cultivation is quite low for his…”
“Exactly. Cultivation! How could I have been so foolish? It has been an entire month and I did not even consider such a possibility.”
“What do you mean young master?”

“The number tag on her neck. It was given at the Black market so that she can survive on this part of the veil. But that is the thing. regular people can survive here as the pure energy in the air won’t make their Dantain explode, but a cultivator that has not awakened their Dantain is entirely different. Without the tag to help ease the burden, they will die.”
Eunid slapped his forehead, “why did I never check her cultivation before?”
“Actually, young master, I did. She is nothing impressive. Cultivation wise. She is just around the stone realm. Even the toddlers here can easily beat her, besides, someone has used the Yin and yang Talent swapping Flower on…” The Butler paused a bit as he also came to a realization.
Eunid smiled, “do a grading on her Dantain. And also present me a room. If We can’t help her as mere people, maybe we can as cultivators…”
