Chapter 49 The Experience of the Holy Relic
"Oh, how could that be?"
The monk suddenly laughed and said, "I have no intention of using violence. I'm just thinking about what I should give in order to obtain information about the White King's remains."
"All the clues and knowledge about the remains of the White King are priceless."
Holmonks said, "No matter how much you pay, I will provide you with intelligence of equal value."
His words actually gave the monk some confidence.
Unable to ascertain Hohenheim's true nature, the monk ultimately decided against resorting to force.
He took out something that looked like a key from his sleeve and said, "This should be worth enough, right?"
Holmonks glanced at it, seemingly somewhat satisfied, and said, "Of course, the King Key is extremely valuable. I can tell you about the White King now."
For a monk, a piece of Wang Jian is not particularly precious.
It is indeed precious, after all, the King Key is essentially the power of the Spirit King, and the bones, flesh and hair of the royal guards reconstructed by the power of the Spirit King.
But this thing can be made using the souls of ordinary people.
With 100,000 souls and a spiritual land with a radius of one spiritual mile, a King Key can be artificially crafted.
It sounds a bit scary, but to someone like a monk, it's just a mere 100,000 people, nothing at all.
However, the monk had calculated that it would be best for five people in the Eastern Frontier region to fuse with the King Key, because fusing with the King Key would allow them to break through the limits of death and gain immense power.
A soul with powerful spiritual energy is itself a threat to the world.
It will affect the balance of the three realms.
But none of that matters now.
The Spirit King has disappeared, and there are only two people in the Spirit King's palace, namely him and Wang Yue, so it doesn't matter if they use the King's Key for the transaction.
Let's wait until he finds a new Spirit King.
Moreover, using this key is also a good opportunity to test the depths of Hohenheim's abilities.
He left his supernatural powers within the King Key. If Hohenheim uses it, the monk can monitor Hohenheim's every move and, if necessary, even seal his power.
But Hohenheim didn't mind, and he accepted the key.
Holmonx then said, "Izanagi fused with the remains of the White King, causing the Holy Infant to reappear. If the Holy Infant is allowed to remain for a while, it will turn back into the White King."
"But at this time, the three noble sons of Izanagi discovered this, so the three of them killed the Holy Infant as soon as it was formed, and separated the White King's bones and blood."
"They are well aware of the threat posed by the White King's Sacred Remains. It will constantly tempt the Three Noble Sons and their descendants. Once their inner greed is awakened, they will merge with the Sacred Remains."
"Then the White King will return."
"Therefore, the Third Prince sealed the sacred remains and threw them into the sea, and no one knows where they went with the sea."
"So...where is it now?" the monk asked.
"Don't worry, I'll tell you." Holmonx's voice was light: "After drifting in the sea for countless years, it finally arrived in Europe. Its existence affected the spirits of Europe, causing the European phantoms to appear in the form of dragons."
"So it really is related..." The monk had thought so before, but now that Holmes had said it, he realized it was true.
Holmonks ignored his sentiments and continued, "In fact, many stories about dragons in European legends are related to the White King's remains. The dragon that Saint George defeated was a dark dragon that had obtained the power of the White King's remains."
"Someone has already obtained its power?" The monk became somewhat nervous upon hearing this.
"Yes." The monk didn't know how Holmonx did it, but he did feel the nod from its round body.
"However, it is only the bone of the White King. Without the blood of the White King, it can never turn back into the Holy Infant. Therefore, even if others fuse with the Holy Remains, they will not be able to obtain its full power, and their minds will be slowly affected by the Holy Remains."
"Of course, it does not have self-awareness, but it has a strong instinct to find the White King's bone and merge the two to become the Holy Infant."
"But in Europe, of course, it can't be found, so it has caused a lot of chaos in Europe."
"Besides St. George, Attila the Hun also received the power of the White King."
"Attila?" This time it was Charlie who spoke.
He had been listening to their conversation, but he couldn't understand a word they were saying—what White King, what Holy Remains, what Three Noble Sons…
He could only understand the story of St. George slaying the dragon, since it was a very important event in the Christian world, and as a believer in God, he certainly knew about St. George.
Now that he had heard of Attila, he became even more interested.
Attila was the king of the Huns and the famous Scourge of God.
Aside from the war against the Saxons, his war against the Avars was the most important war in his entire career, and he invested in it with greater enthusiasm and more resources.
The Alvar people were actually the Huns in Frankish literature. Their tribe was formed about a century after Attila's death, and their leader also used the Turkic title "Khan," but after being Latinized, he was called "Kakhanus."
So when Holmonx talked about St. George and Attila, he was no longer sleepy.
"Yes, great Charlemagne," Holmonx said respectfully to Charlemagne. "But that's not important. What's important is what comes next. The last time the White King's power was used was in the battle between the Anglo-Saxons and the Welsh in Great Britain."
"At that time, the Anglo-Saxons possessed the power of the White King, so they were always regarded as the White Dragon. They used this power to invade Britain and fight against King Arthur."
"In the end, King Arthur paid with his own life, his body sealed in Avalon along with the remains of the White King by his teacher Merlin."
"So, the White King's remains that you are looking for are inside Avalon."
"Avalon?" The monk frowned upon hearing this and asked, "What kind of place is that?"
This was a place he had never heard of before.
"Because you gave up the King's Key, I will tell you how to get to Avalon."
Holmonx said, "It's located in a different area of the spirit world than Soul Society. You need a guide to get to Avalon. I can take you there."
"oh……?"
The monk did not agree immediately.
He then looked at Hohenheim and found that his face was expressionless.
"Let me think about it, shall I?"
He finally said
