Chapter 154 – Lion of Revenge (2/2)

Although Heino Kingdom had a long history and was well known, they inevitably have a lot of policy obstructions as they develop. Whereas Heino Academy was completely different, they were funded directly from the state treasury so they could hire the best teachers, build the best schools, and teach the best students!

“Caesar, don’t believe yourself to be invincible just because you’re a magic swordsman. There are indeed almost no opponents this time that can defeat you, your strength undoubtedly is telling of that… but, you definitely can’t get careless with Heino Academy!” Woos repeatedly warned.

Even Woos couldn’t investigate all the details regarding the four Heino Academy participants. He knew of two of the four…

“There’s someone called Devoru that you guys have to be especially careful of, his nickname is Golden Lion.”

“Golden Lion?” An image of a strongly built man covered in long blond hair appeared in Lin Xiao’s mind.

But he was wrong.

According to Woos, he wasn’t nicknamed so because he was blond, he also wasn’t strongly built, contrary, he was around 20 and was a handsome youth.

The reason for his nickname was because of his skill, Holy Golden Spear.

“Holy Spear? Is he related to the church?”

This time he was right.

The reason that technique had Holy in it was because he was related to the church, or rather, because he was once part of the church.

“Devoru joined the church when he was young and quickly obtained the opportunity for the Saint Selection. He received the Pope’s baptism and became a Saint candidate, originally, as long as he stayed in the church, he would have successfully became a Saint within a couple of years, just like Snow Saintess in Winterless City. However, he left the church last year.” Woos explained.

Lin Xiao and them might not have known, but Woos knew it well, when he decided to leave the church, it caused a huge disturbance in Heino Kingdom.

The Holy Light church originally lacked influence in Heino Kingdom, they met a lot of obstacles, so Great Sage Bellco made efforts to keep Devoru and planned to use his strength and influence to expand into Heino Kingdom.

But he left. Okay, then leave, who cares?

What made Bellco more depressed afterwards was him transferring into Heino Academy not even one month after leaving and becoming a royal attendant, aka ‘dog’, aka ‘slave servant’, everyone was taken aback.

You didn’t want to be a high and mighty Saint, and went to work for someone else, aren’t you just degrading yourself?

“Some suspected that there was a conflict between Heino Kingdom and the church, so the royalty dug him out from the church. Others suspected that he was humiliated and now hates the church and plans to borrow the kingdom’s power to exact revenge!”
