System vs Rebirth Chapter 585 Information

Marquis Walford’s Mansion.

“This is…” Anna gasped, looking at the document.

“Have you found the document?” Illia frowned while looking around the shelves.

“I think yes. The marquis is insane.” Anna frowned, reading the document. “He actually sacrificed his wife and children in order to join the Supreme Devil Organization.”

“Sacrificed?” Illia was confused. “I don’t think I’ve heard about such a thing. Aren’t his wife and children supposed to die from an incident? No, wait… The incident is related to a bandit attack and no one survived… Don’t tell me…”

“Yeah. I think that’s the situation.”

“The Marquis is insane. From the information we’ve gathered regarding that incident, it’s said that those three died brutally. I don’t think I have to tell you the details, but when the corpses were found, it was said that their limbs had been torn and their faces were almost unrecognizable. If that kind of accident was planned, then…”

Illia was shivering from the thought alone. To think the marquis would be able to do such cruelty. “Though, I still haven’t got my answer. We’ve been following any news regarding the organization.

“We have even found and tortured their members for information. Unfortunately, the low ranking members didn’t know many things. As you might already know, the organization has several ranks: Worshiper, Officer, Inspector, Bishop, Saint, and the Supreme Devil.

“We have captured a few Worshipers and Officers and one Inspector. But aside from the Inspector, who chose to kill himself before we could interrogate him, the rest don’t know the details about the organization.”

Anna thought for a moment, recalling the information she had regarding the organization. Unfortunately, Noel was the one who handled the organization, not her. Even if she wanted to reveal the secret, she could only follow everything Noel did in his past life.

This marquis was one of them. He was once a high ranking member. When the Demon Banner Army subjugated him, they needed a lot of people, including Noel. They suffered quite a bit as well, so she chose to investigate the marquis first before he became a high ranking member. This would further weaken the organization.

“I once worked with Noel. At that time, Noel pretended to be captured and tried to save some Apprentice Knights. There was a Devil Inspector that controlled the entire situation and he said that a Devil Bishop would be coming.

“I think we can safely assume that the organization is using the Devil Inspector as the middleman.”

When Illia heard this assumption, she couldn’t help but connect some pieces of information. “I think you are right. The Devil Inspectors should be the ones in charge of recruiting the Spirit Apprentice and Spirit Practitioners. Judging from the current information, they are training those people.

“And if they find some good seedlings, they will contact a Devil Bishop to bring them to their headquarters for further training.

“I think that’s the reason why they are able to create hideouts after hideouts without having any trace,” Illia explained her own thought with the information she had.

It seemed they were on the right track. It was basically impossible to find the Supreme Devil Organization just by getting information from Devil Inspectors or below. Even their hideout wouldn’t contain that information.

However, they thought about something new that might be able to help them locate the headquarters.

“What if we lure the Devil Bishop and follow them? They are Spirit Grandmasters, so I don’t think it’ll be easy to follow them. As for another way, we can select a few people to rise through the ranks… But I’m afraid the Supreme Devil Organization has a way of brainwashing them or finding their lies.

“Last but not least, there should be a separate rank for those who are manipulating everything behind the scenes. The Devil Bishop and other ranks are simply a measurement for strength, not the brains of the organization.

“And these people are extremely useful. After all, they should have more information than those fighters.”

With that thought in mind, they looked at the room again, knowing that this was a big chance. They had to get everything. They believed the marquis belonged to the third category, so they had to find as much evidence as possible.

They continued to search the room and found multiple interesting pieces of evidence.

“This is the account book of this mansion.”

“There is actually a hidden project in an abandoned mine? Are they training a new batch of Devil Worshipers here?”

“The marquis was actually involved in the Devil Inspector where Noel and I tried to save two Apprentice Knights?”

“This is…”

They found a lot of evidence regarding the marquis’s involvement. However, they couldn’t find anything that would lead them to a clue to the organization’s operation along with their hideout.

It seemed that the marquis was also a pawn to the organization. But since he would become a high ranking member in the future, Anna ended up finding a lot more evidence than she expected.

“This is good… To think that the marquis is involved with so many things… I’m afraid that they don’t expect us to infiltrate the marquis’ mansion due to how powerful the mar—” Anna suddenly stopped as her instinct was telling her that the threat was back.

“Not good!” Anna gritted her teeth and grabbed everything she could and said, “We have to run. The threat has returned.”

Illia was startled, but she was an expert in this field. The moment she heard the warning, she followed Anna as quickly as possible before leaving the mansion. Obviously, they met a few people, so Anna ended up knocking them out with her lightning.

*Clang!*

The windows in the office suddenly shattered as the Devil Bishop returned. When she saw the mess inside the mansion, she realized that the enemies truly tried to find the information about them.

“This…” The Devil Bishop gritted her teeth. She returned because she tried to lure those people into this mansion, but she never expected that the other party would be able to move one step ahead by leaving the mansion first.
