“They sent six clergyate or to attack?” one of the clergy beside hiia Don’t make trouble,” Christopher replied sole quite a powerful force, but with the Eternal Treaty in place, they will not h the Eternal Treaty didn’t restrict the actions of the disciples, the peace it wasit so that none of them would dare to open fire in a careless way

Most of the tiht process would be correct Now that sos happen, however, it would inevitably be flawed

The Moon Goddess Church’s warriors finally arrived at the Winter God Church’s teroup of soldiers parted, and a e yellow robe stepped forwards “Christopher,funny”

“Gaaze noticeably shrank

Georgia was also taken aback “The new bishop of the Moon Goddess Church? Do you recognize him?”

“Yes We’ve crossed paths before in the past and not in a good way This snake!” Christopher cursed

He made no atte that he had said

Gaed “Don’t say it like that, Christopher You know that I’ve always viewed you as one of my friends”

“Every person that becootten what happened to Nius”

Gaht of the Gods I felt terrible when I had to purify him But let’s not talk about that; you knohy I’m here today”

“I know But I also know that your men died in the Lonely Forest, not to the hands of the Winter God Church You should go there to investigate first”

“It wouldn’t be right for ht?” Gaht not be in the Lonely Forest They could be right within the Winter God Church”

Christopher was enraged “What is that supposed tothat ere involved in what happened?”

“I’ is possible And e need to do is find the truth I hope you won’t ht?” Galare, then spun around and walked back into the temple “You can come in, but I hope that you will abide by the temple’s rules I will atteo to, but if I cannot, don’t o anywhere else,” Gambell said as he followed Christopher into the temple “I just want to take a look at your room”

Christopher said, “I will allow you to search , you will need to render an account to me”

“Of course I will,” Gambell replied

Christopher strode off towards his own room

And what Archbishop wouldn’t have some skeletons in their closets? For instance, Christopher was a pedophile, and clues of this could easily be found in his room If such neere to be spread publicly, then Bishop Christopher would be finished even if the Winter God Church was found to be innocent

The guards responsible for destroying evidence did asthe Moon Goddess Church any leverage

Unfortunately, just because they were on guard didn’t

One of the guards rushed into Christopher’s roo to wipe away any clues that were present

But just as he was about to do so, he suddenly stopped in his tracks
