Chapter 462 Good News
"She managed to escape… How did she do that? Do all werewolves capable of doing that kind of trick?" Yulia asked as she stood at the spot where Beatrice vanished.
She still can't believe that someone managed to escape from the encirclement of three Celestial Beings. Although Celestials were more focused on their physical skills, they still have incredible senses that could easily locate their target.
However, Beatrice had completely disappeared from their senses as if she got teleported to a faraway land.
"No… She's quite special. However, it means that she's probably not just a werewolf… No werewolf is capable of doing that." Beta replied as she also went over to check the spot where Beatrice disappeared.
She tried looking for clues but aside from the remnant Moonlight Energy, she can't tell where Beatrice had gone into…
"Wait… Not just a werewolf? Are you telling me she could be another species?" Yulia asked curiously.
She didn't expect that Demihumans could be like that…
'Ahhh… No, Beatrice is already a human and a wolf… She might have a third race or something…' Yulia suddenly realized it after thinking about it.
"Yes… It may be a race that was capable of traveling through space…"
Vincent, who was trying to figure out the red stone in Luna's hands, heard the two's conversation.
"Did you just say that Beatrice is capable of traveling through space?" Vincent asked as he looked at Beta…
He also noticed that Luna and Rem nodded at this as if they already thought of it as well.
"That's the only answer I can give by eliminating other possible answers." Beta replied.
"So a demihuman is capable of doing that? As far as I know, even the Celestial Race can't do such a thing… unless you have a device that could help you, right?" Vincent asked.
"That's correct. Their race has an incredible affinity with Mystic Arts… Aside from manipulating space, I don't think there is any other answer. Actually, I've spread a thin net made of Celestial Energy before she disappeared." Beta replied as she looked into Vincent's eyes before she continued
"The net was perfectly fine after she disappeared. It wasn't broken or anything… It means that she really shifted her position to somewhere else instead of moving extremely fast that we didn't see with our eyes."
"I did the same…"
"I also tried to stop her by surrounding her with my energy… I didn't expect that she'll disappear by manipulating space. Even among the Demihuman Race, such an ability is extremely rare.
Rem and Luna added as they also felt regret that one of the Demihumans had escaped from them.
"Hmm… What are we going to do with the corpses?" Yulia suddenly asked.
"I'm not sure… Do you have an idea?" Vincent asked.
"Well, Severin asked me if he could get a werewolf's corpse… Unfortunately, they had transformed back to human forms but he might still be interested."
"Got it… Just send them to Severin then…" Vincent answered as he finally decided to leave the pit with the others.

After Vincent confirmed the casualties on their side and made arrangements for them, he returned to his residence with the Celestials.
He then quickly asked Luna about the stone.
"Can I hold it?" Vincent asked.
Luna didn't mind it at all as she handed it over to Vincent.

"This is…"
Vincent was shocked after reading the appraisal result…
It is a weapon made of Bloodstone!
He felt extremely excited as he found another clue about this mysterious stone.
'Hmm? It uses the attribute points of the armament to activate its skill… 1 point for Focused Corruption… Hmm… I guess the Corruption Attribute was previously one thousand.'
Vincent mused after seeing the skill.
All the other weapons he had appraised before needed to spend mana and sacrifice durability to activate their skills.
However, the red stone in his hands has to sacrifice its Attribute Points to activate its skills!
It is quite unique as he couldn't help but feel excited about discovering something new.
"I'm sorry… It got bound to me after opening the box… I was just trying to take a glance." Luna apologized since she knows that unbinding Bound Items to someone is not going to be easy.
"It's alright… It's better that you have it instead of the Werewolves… However, why was it previously aggressive? It even destroyed the ceiling of the cavern." Vincent asked curiously.
"Ahh… That didn't come from this stone. The werewolves sealed the box with that energy… They're probably thinking that if someone managed to find this treasure, they'll get buried to death if they didn't know that it would release such a powerful energy." Luna replied as she noticed that the energy from a while ago seem to be from a formation art.
"I see… Keep this thing with you then… It seems really useful, especially the Stagnation Ability. If its attribute points are getting too low, give it to me and I'll try to enhance it." Vincent replied as he returned the stone to Luna.
Although he's interested in the Bloodstone Armament, it wasn't to the point that he would covet it from his subordinate. He already has too many weapons at his disposal after all.
"Thank you… Since it still has nine hundred ninety-nine uses, I guess it will still be a long time before I ask for help." Luna replied with a smile.

On the next day, Vincent went to the Kayser Tower to see how everyone was doing.
Clank!
As soon as he opened the door, he was greeted by Calidia with good news.
"Good morning, Sir Vincent! We found traces of the female werewolf and the rest who had escaped!"
