Chapter 1057 (1/2)

”The King of Graycastle!”

Lorenzo shuddered at this name

Everybody in the church had heard of him Within merely a few years, this nificant border town to the sovereign of the state Nothing could explain his sudden rise He had even defeated the Holy City of Hermes which had once dominated the entire continent

In fact, Roland Wimbledon was the main reason Lorenzo had made such a quick decision to sever his relationshi+p with the church Realizing that the conflict between the church and Graycastle could never be settled, he had quickly resigned his bishop position to escape from the trouble

But Lorenzo did not understand why Roland suddenly extended his power to the borders of the Kingdo, he should have focused on do a new commotion He wondered what Roland was up to this tirid ”Fill ot the news frorid said positively ”The troop stationed at the foot of Cage Mountain is from Graycastle Their outfits and weapons fit the description Further, death row prisoners froe Mountain as well So of Graycastle!”

”Cage Mountain death row prisoners” Lorenzo paced the roo for that”

”Very likely, your lordshi+p” Hagrid nodded before correcting hi for that”

”How did he know?” asked the earl

”It isn't surprising that he knew The discovery of the ruin was siht that there must be a connection between those ruins, and Roland happens to be the first person who noticed this connection”

Although the church did not know the exact reason behind Prince Roland's swift rise, there were quite a few theories Apart from ridiculous rumors such as the incarnation of God and the spokesman for the demons, many people believed that Prince Roland had obtained soh the three Archibishops had disroundless rumor, many believers had insisted that this was the truth Lorenzo had also been one of them

”Otherwise, how did Roland defeat the Holy City?”

TheTeo, when the God's Punishdom of Wolfheart, many nobles had either been killed in action or surrendered Even the Queen of Clearwater had failed to stop the church As the former bishop in Archduke Island, Lorenzo had assisted in the logistics and the post-war clean-up He had been responsible for sending so away the rest During an operation at Cliff Ridge, he had accidentally learnt about an ancient legend that had been circulated for 100 years

It was ruers had stolen so Temple but died shortly afterwards The local nobles had later taken possession of these treasures which the ancestors of Cliff Ridge's Earl had been very interested in He believed that the deaths had nothing to do with the curse on the temple but with the treasures taken out from the te for them and had finally retrieved a part of these treasures frodom of Dawn

The research had cost a dozen lives In the end, the old earl had finally found so unusual It was a lethal weapon that produced a deadly ray, working just like a curse!

But the weapon had lost its power after several uses as if its power had been exhausted Although the old earl had sent many people to the border to search for a si his life to explore the temple himself, he had not found a way to recover it Therefore, he had recorded the incident in his fa his descendents would one day find an answer The enerations until the church had seized Cliff Ridge a century later

Lorenzo had been very interested in the ite However, after he had played around with it for a few ti had happened He had thus lost his interest and put it aith the other treasures in the warehouse, planning to deal with it after he had returned to the Holy City

After all, he could not take a family book too seriously Many nobles boasted about their long fain, and their accuullible as to believe all of thedodom of Everwinter that easily Rather, it would have been the other way around
