"Should I tell the generals to surround the Holy Church and be prepared for battle?" The Guard asked Eren's clone.
The Holy Emperor waved his hand.
"If it's just one person, there is no need to go that far. I will deal with him myself. I will teach him the consequences of attacking the Holy Empire."
He walked away from the guard, disappearing into the distance. The guard was left behind in a daze that he didn't even manage to react to for a long time.
For some reason, he didn't doubt the Holy Emperor's words, remembering the brutality with which he had killed the traitors of the Empire.
If the Holy Emperor was so brutal towards spies of the Northern Continent, then how brutal was he going to be towards an actual Necromancer.
....
Meanwhile in the Holy Church, Eren was standing in a puddle of blood. At his feet, a headless corpse was lying. Find joy at m-vl_emp,yr
In his right hand was a Sword that was tainted with fresh blood. Meanwhile, his clothes remained completely untouched by blood.
Even if blood was to stain his clothes, he could easily clean it with his Dragon Tongue Magic.
He was holding the head of the corpse that was lying at his feet, appearing somewhat disappointed.
"With the crazed look in their eyes, I thought that would last a little longer. Did I overestimate the Domain of the Holy Church? Or is it because I have become stronger?"
Even normally, the domain of the Holy Church didn't affect him as long as he used the sword Emperor's Aura. But this time, he didn't even have to use the Sword Emperor's Aura which could give away his identity.
He quickly retracted his hand again, feeling helpless. It was as if he had a delicacy in front of him, but he was told by the doctor that he had to avoid it at any cost.
Although it was frustrating, he could only accept the warning this time. He didn't have time to carefully think about ways to open the door without harming himself. There were still a lot of things he had to handle.
He started checking the other sections of the Holy Church, soon reaching the basement where the prison was said to be.
He thought it might become more useful for the Holy Emperor's dignity if he could deal with the Necromancer as well as the criminals that were kept in the Holy Church.
It was a perfect opportunity to show his strength and gain the trust of the citizens in the Royal Authority as well.
He opened the prison cells, expecting to find the fiercest of criminals like the actual spies of the Northern Continent. However, his eyes were left wide open when he actually stepped inside the prison cell.
"What are you doing here?" he subconsciously asked out loud, forgetting that he was supposed to be a Necromancer at the moment.
Fortunately, the people inside the cell were already unconscious, their bodies covered in wounds that were still fresh.
It was clear that it hadn't been long since they were last tortured, probably mere hours before he attacked.
"To think that the Holy Church was actually keeping them imprisoned here. If their presence is revealed now, it could make things really complicated."
Eren walked towards the prisoners who were none other than the Elders of the Great Demon Sect that were said to have died already.
The disciples of these elders who had tagged along for experience were also here. However, a few of them were missing a few limbs already.
"To think that the Blood Demoness would end up like this." Eren stopped in front of Zhang Wei whose face had been scarred deeply. Even though it could be healed, it was still not something that could be ignored.
If Feng Yu heard what happened to them, he could only imagine how fast she was going to attack the Western Continent.
