The flame serpent scuttled over happily. Wilbur kicked it away in annoyance, coming up to Cadillacia's corpse.
The corpse was still in Cadillacia's third form.
Most of these forms would usually disappear after the person died, returning their corpse to their original form.
However, it was clear that Cadillacia was an exception.
Wilbur had already used his Iris Veritas for the day and could not use it to inspect the state the corpse was currently in.
Thus, Wilbur began to scope out the body using his own spiritual sense.
Using spiritual sense was nowhere as good and precise as the Iris Veritas, but it was decent enough to give Wilbur a satisfying answer.
After a thorough sweep, Wilbur let out a satisfying smile.
Sure enough, Wilbur had guessed right. There was a Blood Embryo inside of Cadillacia's body.
That was how he had maintained his third form after death.
"There sure are a lot of these eggs around, huh?" Wilbur wondered.
If what Eileen and the rest said had been true, the Blood Embryo was considered a sacred item in the church of Bloodism. How was it possible that some random member had one of them?
Wilbur could not understand it and promptly gave up thinking about it. After all, it was definitely going to be a good contribution. It would be even better if he obtained a few more of them. He would not mind killing a few more of these guys to get them.
He tossed Cadillacia's corpse into the Dragon's Altar after that.
A pale flame rose up as an ancient aura filled the air, and the corpse was turned into grace points at once.
The golden hourglass lit up and showed 480 grace points.
Wilbur was overjoyed. This Blood Embryo had gotten him even more grace points than the one from Suelynn Onyx of the Skull Cult.
Wilbur thought about it and realized that it could be due to Cadillacia's identity.
Cadillacia was much more powerful than Suelynn, so it was only fair that his Blood Embryo would yield more grace points.
