Catastrophe Card King-Chapter 637 - 213 Path of Destruction [Spade 9 - Calamity Bearer]_4

Chapter 637: Chapter 213 Path of Destruction [Spade 9 – Calamity Bearer]_4

[Wings of the Angel] Even in the intelligence held by the Lionheart Family, there was a complete void regarding it.

Though she had never seen it, that didn’t hinder her from knowing the terror of that forbidden power.

If the Thirteen Masked Knights were defeated, the uncertainty of tonight’s event would greatly increase.

However, what no one saw was that under the mask of the Pursuer of Light, there appeared a hint of amusement: “Has it finally been forced out…”

Camilla looked at Catherine’s wings, her demeanor still as calm as ever.

At that moment, she slowly brought out a silver Holy Grail covered in profound runes.

With the appearance of the Holy Grail, a soft yet domineering gleam of the Kingship Holy Flame blossomed forth.

In an instant, Camilla was enveloped in a sanctified brilliance, majestic and noble.

Like a queen who held sovereignty, her aura was even more imposing than that of Queen Catherine across from her!

…

“[Xismark Holy Grail], had you anticipated this from the start…”

Leonard Churchill also breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn’t know if the Holy Grail could counter Wings of the Angel, but he saw in Camilla the kind of prepared composure that came with being forearmed.

He then realized that the reason Camilla and the others had sought the Holy Grail was not solely for the artifact itself.

They might have already known some of Queen of Orlan’s trump cards, thus considering targeted measures beforehand.

“Eh?”

But as soon as this thought emerged, Leonard felt as if various “coincidences” had connected.

It wasn’t just Camilla; even he himself was involved in a series of incidents related to the Holy Grail.

The moment this realization hit, Leonard couldn’t help but think of the person closely associated with the Holy Grail: Tracy Garcia’s mother!

Dozens of thoughts whirled through his mind, linking together each and every detail.

He quickly arrived at a startling conclusion.

That “Auntie Garcia,” was one of the initial strategists!

Before setting up this “using another’s knife to kill” scene during tonight’s event, she had already organized another grand scheme!

She intended to eliminate Queen Orlan as well!

“Is this the workings of a top-tier strategist…”

Leonard narrowed his eyes, and the more he understood the connections, the more he was deeply shaken.

It seemed everything was a path of his own choosing.

But all “coincidentally” connected.

He sought the Holy Grail, met Camilla and Noah Wright, and successfully extended his life…

Then, the Holy Grail was taken away by Camilla, appearing here just in time to counter Wings of the Angel…

The string of events seemed to have unfolded naturally.

But…

One cannot overlook the premise that it was Tracy Garcia’s mother who initially provided information about the Holy Grail!

In other words, she was the source of a series of events.

Leonard did not think this was a coincidence.

Rather, he was part of someone else’s game, destined to reach this point, taking each subsequent step!

It was as if he were a chess piece on a board, seemingly with countless variations.

Yet his path was already confined to specific routes set by the chessmaster, according to the opponent’s moves.

In this light, Leonard’s quest to kill Abel was inevitable.

And knowing that Camilla would come to assassinate, it was also inevitable that she would appear at tonight’s banquet!

Everything he subjectively did was, in fact, bound to happen.

Perhaps the trajectory of some pieces might deviate, but there are hidden threads correcting such deviations.

This was a high-end game.

Camilla might not be aware of the entire plan, but as the leader of the Thirteen Knights, the ‘Pursuer of Light’ likely knew much!

He and Auntie Garcia might not have communicated, but with identical goals, they strategically maneuvered accordingly.

This was the planning of a top-tier strategist.

The plan did not end there!

But in that instant, Leonard suddenly realized that Camilla’s calling him to assist was definitely not just about winning a duel.

There was a deeper scheme at play.

Leonard instantly recalled that he himself bore the divine soul of the Weeping Angel!

Thinking this, Leonard’s expression shimmered with excitement he could no longer suppress.

He didn’t feel like a “pawn” or experience the frustration of being used.

Witnessing the maneuvers of such a Wise Man instead brought him a sense of enlightenment, as if his perspective had been elevated.

How fortunate was he to be involved in such a grand scheme?

And in that moment of realization, his wisdom seemed to have been sublimated.

“It seems I’ve comprehended something…”

Leonard suddenly had a realization.

He had grasped a bit of the essence of the Domain of ‘I am the world’.

Leonard knew that his role in this game was crucial, and neither Auntie Garcia nor the Pursuer of Light had any reason to hide this from him.

But they didn’t tell him.

Because they couldn’t say.

Realizing this, Leonard felt his exhilaration surge once more: “Hahaha… High-end game indeed.”

This wondrous experience was something one could only hope to encounter.
