There was only one person in the entire city who could harbor such a strong murderous intent towards him, especially since he was a stranger to everyone else here.
In the past, he had gone to the sea to hunt a Sea Dragon in hopes of awakening his sea of consciousness.
At that time, he had not expected encountering the Prince of Sea Dragons who was taking part in his coming of age ceremony.
When the Sea Dragon Prince attempted to kill them, he was forced to slay the young dragon.
Even though he had killed the Sea Dragon Prince, he believed that his identity would remain hidden as long as he left the scene quickly enough.
Unfortunately, the Sea Dragon Empress had arrived, witnessing his face, known throughout the Eastern Continent.
In the end, he managed to escape her grasp as he wasn't strong enough at the time. However, things were different now. He had grown much stronger, strong enough to at least protect himself.
Even better was the presence of the Holy Priestess in the city. If the Sea Dragon Empress attacked him, he could potentially drag the Holy Priestess into the conflict.
He was a guest on this continent, someone the Holy Priestess was eager to win over. Meanwhile the Sea Dragon Empress was someone that had killed many Archbishops of the Holy Empire.
It was clear who the Holy Priestess was going to support.
If the two were to clash, he stood a good chance of obtaining the blood of the Holy Priestess. He initially thought he would have to implement this plan after reaching the Holy City of the Empire but the opportunity came much earlier.
However, there were only a few flaws in such a seemingly convenient plan. The biggest problem was that he had accepted an option that involved allowing the Sea Dragon Empress to infiltrate the Holy Empire.
If the Sea Dragon Empress died here, he was going to fail that option. So even if he was to drag the two women in a battle, he had to make sure that the Sea Dragon Empress didn't die.
He also had to help her infiltrate the Holy City, which was also easier said than done.
As he walked across the streets amidst the watchful eyes of the Priests, he grew disappointed. Although the killing intent was just as strong, the Sea Dragon Empress didn't rush out to kill him.
He was even more impressed by the Sword Emperor's Aura, wondering what kind of person the Sword Emperor who created this aura used to be.
Even though he was so weak, he could suppress the Holy Priestess' unique ability, removing her advantages.
The Sword Emperor could only be stronger than him. In that case, didn't it mean he was much stronger than the Holy Priestess?
'The intensity of the aura is comparable to Feng Yu's Aura. Nullification of another Overlord's abilities. Was the Sword Emperor stronger than the Overlords?'
Lost in thoughts, Eren stood in front of the Duke's Mansion.
Soon, the door of the Mansion opened. A middle aged man in the Archbishop's Attire stepped out of the mansion, greeting Eren with a smile.
"Her Holiness already knows about the appearance of the envoys from the East. She is waiting for you inside. Please follow me," he respectfully said.
The last Archbishop that met Eren while entering the Eastern Continent was respectful to him but not to this extent. If anything, he felt a little too neutral as if talking to someone of his own level.
On the other hand, this Archbishop was being more respectful.
Eren wasn't sure if it was because the Holy Priestess wanted to win over the people from the Great Demon Sect or if it was because he was considered a Great Elder now.
He didn't think much about it and followed the Archbishop inside the mansion, prepared to meet the third Overlord.
In their entire lives, people couldn't even meet one Overlord.
Meanwhile, in less than a year, it was the third Overlord he was going to meet, leaving only the Necromancer Tower Master who was the most mysterious out of all.
Inside the mansion, the Holy Priestess opened her eyes, showing a disgusted look as she felt a presence inside her Holy Domain.
"That disgusting aura... Why is it here?"
