Academic gathering with a lich
In an era when knowledge was banned, the physician Lyle had to be extremely cautious even in academic research, an invitation from the Andrei Academy materialized before his eyes. The Andrei Academy of Cassandale? Lyle peered closely at the tombstone before him, hissing, "Ah, the scholars here really know how to pick a spot."
Chapter 79 Vampires and the Antichrist
"Vampires are enemies, dark creatures cursed by God,"
Karen said to Lyle with a solemn face.
"Tracing their origin, although I hate to admit it, vampires are betrayers of the Holy Light, and the first vampire was a fallen Paladin."
"While the Paladin was out waging wars, his wife died by falling into a river. The cause is now impossible to verify due to the passage of time, but the priests of that era declared it to be suicide—a grave sin, unforgivable and barring entry to Heaven."
"He fought for glory at the frontlines, yet his beloved did not receive even a flicker of light. That Paladin fell into despair, and after despair, came madness and rage."
"He plunged his battle sword into the statue symbolizing God and cursed while weeping bitterly."
"A dark miracle ensued; the wooden statue bled dark blood, which soaked the knight's body. His own blood became cursed, turning him into a bloodthirsty creature, intolerable to the Holy Light."
