Chapter 1081: Chapter 381: His Holiness the Pope, We Have a Traitor Among Us

"That’s more like it!"

"Good to see you know your place!"

...

Cain’s mouth twitched; how did he, with the script of a protagonist, end up having enemies in every corner?

It’s all Ivan’s fault, brainwashing everyone!

Cain glared at Ivan: "Where is the Envoy of the Naturalism Church? I’m giving you a chance to make amends. Get the Philosopher’s Stone back immediately; I needn’t emphasize its importance!"

Mentioning the Philosopher’s Stone, everyone grew anxious, their eyes fixed on Ivan, hoping he would come to his senses.

It was not too late to make things right.

"I don’t know where Wayne has gone..."

Ivan, without an excuse, wanted to speak but didn’t dare to, feeling incredibly stifled.

"Your Holiness the Pope, are you feeling wronged? Did those bastards from the Naturalism Church threaten you with violence?"

"Shut up, you can’t call them bastards, it’s the Goddess... this is not acceptable." Ivan quickly interjected, a thing he only dared to think in his mind, for he couldn’t say it out loud.

"So it’s true, you have surrendered to the Naturalism Church, and switched your faith to the Nature Goddess."

With indisputable evidence, Cain gestured to have Ivan taken away: "The Philosopher’s Stone cannot be lost. Lock up the traitor first, impersonate him to retrieve the Stone, and then it’s not too late to turn against the Naturalism Church."

Everyone stood up, helplessly saying: "Your Holiness the Pope, you must have your grievances, but at this point, we can only ask you to bear with it."

"Once Her Holiness returns, your innocence will surely be cleared."

The Divine Oracle High Priests did not use force, urging Ivan to maintain his dignity, for old friendship’s sake, not to make everyone assist in preserving it.

"No, you can’t do this to him, this... this is also prohibited."

Ivan was almost bursting with frustration; what could he say? The pretty boy did have a special talent, but not as Pontiff Saina’s lover, but as the Dark Goddess’s lover?

No one would believe it!

If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t believe it either.

"To think, after all this, you’re still protecting outsiders... oh, to you, a traitor, we’re the outsiders." Cain sneered unceasingly, finding Ivan’s discomfort extremely satisfying.

"Will you all stop arguing, let me say something fair!" Wayne chimed in from behind the crowd.

"You, from the Naturalism Church, what right do you have to inte..."

The hall fell silent in an instant, everyone drenched in cold sweat, fearing Wayne might suddenly pull out the Philosopher’s Stone and sink the Dark Church Headquarters.

What terrified them the most was seeing Holy Maiden Anastasia, their Moonlight, standing beside Wayne.

"Her Holiness, even you have betrayed... us?"

"Impossible, Her Holiness must be under control!"

"Right, right, I’ve controlled the Holy Maiden and tarnished her purity, is that what you want to hear?"

Wayne snorted twice and, seeing people about to rush at him, swiftly pulled the Philosopher’s Stone from his pocket.

The crowd retreated in quick succession, and the entire hall turned into chaos.

What a great atmosphere, much livelier than the Naturalism Church!

Wayne gave his evaluation inwardly, his gaze turning to Cain in the crowd, with the countenance of a defeated villain. It’s your turn.

"Cain is it? I am here by the Dark Goddess’s command, to investigate the true cause of the former Dark Knight’s death. You’re the prime suspect, come with me."

"The Dark Knight..."

Cain’s heart skipped a beat, a sense of deep unease overcoming him, but as someone who had faced many crises, he calmly responded: "You’re the Divine Oracle High Priest of the Naturalism Church, why would the Goddess seek you? Your excuse is too fake."

"Reality is this absurd; it’s not like writing a novel where you need to account for logic."

Wayne patted the cloaked person beside him, Idinis, and pulled down her hood, revealing Dark Knight Vizi’s face: "To indict you, the murderer, I’ve also brought the victim!"

"Ah?!"

The hall erupted into turmoil once again.

God-chosen Knights were rare at their respective Churches’ events, but they did appear from time to time, and the high-ranking attendees recognized who Vizi was.

This was terrifying; Dark Knight Vizi had vanished for many years, the Dark Goddess selected another Knight to replace her, no one knew who it was, but they knew of an appearance in Lundan.

With a new Knight, what happened to the old one?

"You, you..."

Seeing that face, Cain turned pale, tremblingly lifted his hand, and stuttered: "Impossible, you... you’re not Lord Vizi."

"Who else could I be if not Vizi, perhaps the noble and graceful Dark Goddess?" Idinis said with a smile.

"Nonsense, you blasphemer, how dare you impersonate the Goddess, a capital offense!" Cain seized the opportunity to counterattack loudly, wanting the blasphemer who impersonated the Goddess chopped into pieces.

"I’m looking forward to it." Idinis said, her smile unchanged.

...

Ivan: (;⚆˘‸˘⚆)

Please allow him to boldly assume, could this person be... could she... be the Goddess?
