Chapter 145: Chapter 145: I know a place

The Holy Church's ship approached slowly.

"Elder Ren, we can attack as soon as you command."

Eren's communication talisman lit up, and he heard the voice of the crew member who had taken command of the battle systems.

"For now, we wait and see," Eren responded, his eyes never leaving the approaching vessel. "Do not engage unless I give the order."

As the two ships drew closer, a figure appeared on the deck of the Holy Church's vessel.

The man was dressed in a pure white robe that was covered in golden symbols of the Holy Church. He had short blonde hair that matched perfectly with his similarly colored pupils.

He appeared no older than thirty.

As soon as people saw that man, they subconsciously felt like they had witnessed a divine being that needed to be worshiped.

A few outer disciples almost fell to their knees, only to come to their senses when Eren released his Sword Emperor's Aura.

"Don't lose your mind. It's nothing but the side effect of his blessing," Eren reminded the young disciples who couldn't believe that they had almost fallen to their knees.

"Archbishop, should I approach them and explain?" A young priest asked the blonde haired man.

"It is fine. We are the guests here. I will do it myself. It wouldn't be good if we caused a misunderstanding and spoiled her plans."

The ship came to a halt merely a few hundred meters away from Eren's Battleship. The Archbishop rose in the air and walked towards Eren as if he wasn't in the air but on ordinary ground.

Eren also rose in the air and flew towards the Archbishop to meet him in the middle.

"I don't expect someone from the Holy Church to get lost and end up in an entirely different continent. Your sense of direction is quite something," Eren said.

"Those who follow Goddess Freya are never lost." The Archbishop kindly replied.

He observed Eren's robe.

"You just be an Elder of the Great Demon Sect."

He was less worried about the Sect getting harmed by this ship and more worried about Feng Yu destroying the Holy Church's ship in anger.

If only the Holy Church's ship was destroyed, it was fine. But if an Archbishop died at her hands, then things could really spiral out of control.

Although he didn't want any unnecessary contact between the two continents, it was still much better to be safe than sorry.

"If that's the only problem, then the solution is simpler. I will travel with you and send my ship back," the Archbishop said without showing the slightest anger.

The only reason he even came on a Battleship was because it was faster. Now that the Great Demon Sect was here with a Battleship, he could just travel with them.

"Fine. You can inform your people and send that ship back."

Nathaniel went back to the ship and informed his people that he was going to go alone with Eren to the great demon sect.

"But Archbishop, it's not safe! What if they schemed against you?! At least take a few of us with you!"

Nathaniel smiled at the sight of Priests worrying about him.

"Is your trust in Goddess Freya wavering?" he asked the young priests.

"N-never!" The Priests panicked and exclaimed in unison.

"Then why worry? Who says I'm going alone? I have our goddess with me! Hence, don't worry. I will finish the task I am given and return. You should go back and wait for me."

The Priests could not say anything in response. They could only nod and agree.

They watched Nathaniel go to Eren's ship. Their ship turned around and started leaving.

....

Back on the Demon Sect's ship, Eren and Nathaniel landed on the deck together.

Eren noticed Ye Liang standing in the back with the bottle of wine.

"We have a guest. Serve a drink for him," he told Ye Liang.

"Huh?" Ye Liang froze in place.
