Chapter 148: Purge

Chapter 148: Purge

The Headquarters of the Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun, Trier, The City of the Sun.

Blaise Larson pinched his brows in a headache, looking at the trembling woman who sat in front of him.

"Amelia..." he said, trying to make his voice appear as soothing as possible. "If you want time, I would give you. You don't have to force yourself."

"No." Amelia shook her head, tucking her quivering arms in her long coat that covered her figure, "I am fine. Your excellency, Angel of Miracles, I can deta-ail it."

Blaise sighed, placing the pen and document on the table in front of him and abruptly rising from his chair, causing the other to flinch in fear.

He walked towards her as she trembled, trying to get up from the chair, seemingly wanting to make a run for it.

The Angel of Miracles, however, appeared in front of her path and made her flinch again, taking a step back.

"You are not fine, Amelia." He said sternly. "Your mind was almost in shambles not long ago. So don't come knocking on my door and wasting my time again until you feel great. I mean really great. Now go back to the infirmary for your own good."

Amelia nodded quickly and got around him, quite swiftly leaving the room. Her trembling legs didn't seem to bother her in the least this time.

Blaise sighed, walking back to his chair and sitting down. His dim eyes were looking at the mountains of paperwork on the table that needed his review and immediate attention.

God, how much he hated paperwork and Lucas, who pushed everything on his head and went to battlefield. It was meant to be Lucas's duties, while he acted as the thundering sword of their lord.

But now, their roles have almost been reversed for a decade. As Lucas and other angles took to the frontlines while he stayed in the headquarters, the presence of an angel was required here all the time.

He really wanted to perform a miracle to let it all be completed on its own, but he suppressed that desire, no matter how tempting it was.

The documents before him are of the utmost importance, many involving information from the situation on the frontlines, empires, and other churches. It requires his unequivocal attention.

Blaise took a sip of coffee as he took the most recent file from the table, which had a detailed report of the previous situation of the Jacob family.

The Jacob Family. The lap dogs of the Blood Emperor.

And he is doing everything he can to delay that as long as possible while waiting for the defining orders from the Lord.

Blaise finally looked at the document of the Jacob family in his hand, turned to the empty pages and began recording the developments of the Jacob family. They became vassals of their lord.

After that, he truly didn't know any other information. He can't even divine on this issue, as it involves the Gods and the King of Angles.

The information about the entire current situation of the Jacob family is absolutely necessary to delay the news of them becoming his lord's vassal from reaching the ears of the Blood Emperor, as this could very well be the fuse.

He asked Amelia Jacob after she woke up, but the woman hadn't recovered from shock after everything that happened. However, after hearing his request, she tried to gather herself to answer many times, only to fail with stuttering and waste his time on her.

Blaise also considered his other options: praying to his lord and procuring information from Diana.

His lord didn't answer his prayers, and the saint he sent to her still hadn't returned yet.

So, all he could do was wait, while already coming up with contiguous plans to deal with the fallout, as he had felt it was already too late.

Blaise jerked his head up from the document, looking forward. A light erupted in the room, morphing into the projection of his Lord.

The Eternal Blazing Sun ordered him immediately, without giving him any chance to speak. "It's time, Blaise. Begin the purge. If you encounter any resistance that you are unable to overcome, simply pray to me, and I will personally send down divine punishment. The Church of Evernight Goddess will also join with us."

"Yes, milord." Blaise stood up and nodded solemnly.

"War of gods is about to begin. Announce a state of emergency immediately." The Eternal Blazing Sun gave his final order. Then, his projection faded away into particles of light, leaving Blaise, who resolutely took out the sacred emblem and pressed on its surface in a peculiar pattern, causing it to light up and produce ripples in the space that began to spread out.

Instantly, sirens boomed across Trier, The City of the Sun...
