Chapter 558: Intervention by the Holy Church
Chapter 558: Chapter 558: Intervention by the Holy Church
The Holy Church.
Even without the framework of religion, it is an organization that prides itself on being the largest in the world, a global "system" centered in the West, with roots planted everywhere.
Under the guise of managing all miracles and magecraft in the world, it is supposedly in opposition to the Mage’s Association, which seeks to conceal miracles.
However, in the Holy Grail War, the relationship between the two takes on a slightly different form.
If the Holy Grail is genuine, it should be human property managed by the Church. Furthermore, to avoid public confusion, it is necessary to manage the ritual of miracles.
Although the Church remained a bystander until the Second Holy Grail War, due to the unscrupulous and disorderly acts of slaughter, it officially began to supervise the ritual from the Third War onward.
After all, it is impossible for mages and heroic spirits who transcend human wisdom to engage in peaceful and cautious battles.
Like the torrent of magical energy observed in the desert a few hours ago, if it came from a heroic spirit, it should already be a case under the Church’s management.
At least, that’s what the Holy Church thinks.
Regarding the meteor crater created by Gilgamesh and Enkidu in the desert area, everything from satellite images to reports is now being concealed through the use of magecraft or power.
In the past Third Holy Grail War in Fuyuki.
Similar accidents have occurred.
At that time, the Holy Church also concealed these accidents out of the idea of supervising the Holy Relics.
However, this time, the concealment of the desert incident has nothing to do with the Holy Church.
That is why it is regarded as a serious problem by the Holy Church’s "Eighth Sacrament Assembly."
This concealment operation was not carried out by the Holy Church or the Mage’s Association.
After investigation, it was carried out by a third party with some degree of authority in the country’s judicial or intelligence agencies.
Although the full picture of the other party is not clear, it at least indicates that a part of the US national authorities is involved in this matter.
Originally, the Holy Church should perhaps thank the other party for handling the laborious work on their behalf—but regarding this matter, the other party is saying, "We don’t need your power in this Holy Grail War," and also expressing their unwillingness to be involved with the Church.
Such a thing must not be allowed to happen—someone was indignant.
Or there are those who purely worry about the people living in the land of Snowfield.
Including those with other plans, voices from all sides are saying, "We should forcibly intervene in the Snowfield Holy Grail War."
The Holy Church has enough power to influence countries.
However, this only works in countries where the Church has a strong influence.
In the United States, the influence of the Holy Church varies from state to state. Even in national events such as elections, it may be possible to exert pressure on the opinions of the entire state, but in states with little influence, it may be difficult to freely intervene even in minor matters.
In the case of Fuyuki City, the reason why it was possible to cover up the many incidents of the Third Holy Grail War was based on preparations that had been made for more than several decades in advance.
Even so, in order to deal with something like the appearance of a meteor crater, they would have to sell a considerable amount of favors in various aspects.
Now, the Church is sending people to Snowfield City.
The person with the qualifications of supervisor has already arrived in Snowfield City and is currently in the police station.
Police station, lobby.
The police station is almost deserted late at night.
However, it is too quiet here.
So quiet that you can almost hear a pin drop, and a chill permeates the air.
Orlando met with the Church supervisor who came to the police station.
Now, the two are facing each other.
The supervisor’s name is Hansa Cervantes.
He is a priest and executor who came from the church in Las Vegas, the closest to Snowfield City.
Even in this Snowfield City.
The priest’s attire is eye-catching, wearing an eye patch and a priest’s robe.
He is the most eye-catching person on the street.
After seeing Richard’s criminal speech on TV, Father Hansa decided to go to the police station.
He knows that Orlando is one of the masterminds of the Holy Grail War.
Therefore, in order for the Church to successfully intervene.
Hansa directly chose to talk straight to the point.
However, Orlando’s attitude is firm.
He does not intend to let the Holy Church get involved, and after chatting with Hansa for a while, Orlando found that the other party knew too much.
The Church’s intelligence network is stronger than he imagined.
In less than a few days, the personnel configuration of the police station was figured out, and even his direct unit, the "Monster of Twenty-Eight," was found by the Holy Church.
"To what extent do you have information? Do you know information that even we don’t know? Before you fill in this information gap, I can’t let you go back."
"Sorry, I can’t sleep if I change my pillow. Can I go back and get it?"
Hansa remained calm in the face of Orlando’s coercion.
He even had the margin to joke about it.
He couldn’t be as stupid as Richard to be locked in the interrogation room. Would a hunter actively run into the prey’s nest?
"You said your name is Hansa Cervantes, right? You made a mistake..."
Orlando stared at Father Hansa.
His eyes were as emotionless as at the beginning.
"...Didn’t you think that this lobby is already in my nest?!"
Orlando’s voice became cold.
At the same time, Hansa noticed that the lobby was empty.
Even if the police station is quiet at night, it is impossible not to have a receptionist at the front desk.
The police are on duty 24 hours a day.
So is the front desk receptionist.
Soon, multiple police officers appeared at the exit of the passage connecting to the lobby, all of them holding weapons.
Swords, guns, swords, sticks, shields, scythes...
Not only that, but they still wore handcuffs and pistols on their waists.
This scene has already surpassed the evaluation of being inappropriate, and even gives a comical impression. Some people are carrying weapons similar to golden arquebuses.
Everyone calmly stared at Hansa.
The priest was surrounded by them.
The air was as heavy as if it had been injected with lead, and twenty-eight police officers could attack Hansa at any time.
Hansa also took a stance to prepare for battle.
At this moment of imminent conflict.
However, a situation like a farce occurred.
The phone rang suddenly.
The sound came from Orlando’s coat pocket, his cell phone was ringing.
–Hesitated for a moment.
Orlando frowned and answered the phone.
"Hello, how have you been, brother."
"I’m busy now, if you have something to say, wait a moment and..."
As soon as Orlando heard the voice, he knew it was his off-the-rails Servant.
When he thought Dumas was going to run his mouth as usual, Dumas’s tone suddenly changed and he shouted:
"Listen to me! Leave there right now! Brother!
If you don’t run, be prepared to fight with all your might! There’s something near you... be careful! Otherwise, you’ll die!"
