Matt hurried back to the hotel. Alice still hadn't arrived, so he went out to look for her. Soon, they had met on a dark street near the church.
"I made the decision to destroy this church. I almost got caught by the Divine Knight, but he got careless and I ended up killing him, so it will be easier for us." Matt spoke, and Alice was surprised by this.
"Destroy the church? Wouldn't that be worse? That would be like reporting that we're here." She replied in shock.
Matt nodded, smiling slightly.
"Actually, that's the plan. Look at this I found." He passed her a scroll with writing on it.
As a vampire, Alice didn't need illumination to read what it said, so she was soon stunned.
The scroll mentioned four things. The first was that it was an investigation peculiar to the Bishop present, and according to the scroll, no one else knew about it.
The second thing was a special and important item for controlling vampires. The Bishop has no idea how to use it and doesn't know who it belongs to. He found it at the moment he arrived in this city.
The third thing, he mentioned about hundreds of corpses that were next to that item, and in that section, he also mentioned that all that was at the bottom of the church.
The fourth thing was mixed with the third; it was a tunnel under the earth next to those corpses and that item. That tunnel seems to come out of the empire's territories.
That item reminded Matt and Alice of the organization they had been fighting against a while back, so they needed to verify it.
When Alice read this, Matt proceeded to explain to her what the plan was.
It was simple: destroy and flee with that item and the corpses. The idea was to destroy the entire church to draw attention to that location and get them to shut down the nearby towns. Matt would deliberately leave several clues that would direct his searchers to that tunnel. At the same time, they would wear masks to enter a merchant caravan heading towards the central region of the empire.
Although the plan was simple, it could work to perfection due to Matt's mask-making ability.
Because of this, Alice didn't have to think about it too much.
"Shall we do it right now?" she asked, and Matt nodded.
Both didn't give it much thought. They wanted to avoid any possible mistakes, so they needed to move quickly.
Therefore, they soon surrounded the church covertly. Fortunately, no one suspected anything.
But just then, two inscriptions lit up his face. One below him and one above.
He looked up and was stunned.
'Shit... Goodbye, cruel world.'
A massive explosion occurred from above and subsequently from below, hugging him tightly in strange, icy, murderous ice.
The explosion sounded so thunderous that the first thing he felt was his eardrums exploding.
Even so, a shot flew at high speed outside the window; it was at the last moment that he managed to fire.
And the explosion of the shot was mixed with numerous explosions in the cathedral.
The cause of these vast explosions entered the basement, grabbed everything that was there, filled their storage rings with garbage, and went out like dark arrows on a moonlit night.
After that, both ran all over the city, and in a moment, they had left it.
They didn't need to look at anything. That entire church had been destroyed, and possibly no survivors remained. Therefore, they quickly ran out of the city and soon found a caravan of merchants.

They killed two people among the guards of the caravan and disguised themselves as them.
It was a quick and accurate move. It didn't even take 30 minutes from when they left the city until they were already dressed and disguised differently.
And just when they did that, they could feel a lot of powerful presence appear nearby.
Matt frowned. 'Shit, they were fast.' He thought but revealed nothing on his face. He simply continued to do his job.
The caravan leaders were stunned. They had heard the explosions in the city, but they had left it over an hour ago; they weren't returning. But seeing so many Holy and Divine Knights appear from one moment to the next left them stunned.
One of them approached the caravan.
"Stop."
