Eloasis Empire, royal capital, St. Loria.

On this day, it rained for the first time in a long time in the area of Santa Loria.

As the very center of the empire, St. Loria was located inland. The sky is often clear here, and the occasional rain makes the residents living in the royal capital feel novel.

Some children took out their old umbrellas, rushed out of the door excitedly, and strolled in the rain with umbrellas.

What they didn't know was that this rain had enveloped almost the entire Eloasis Empire.

This reminded some people of the dimensional rift that had occurred in St. Loria not long ago.

It was the same day, the sky was dark. Even standing in the tallest building in Santa Loria...... On the top floor of the central holy church, looking out the window at the sky, there are dark clouds everywhere you look.

The Central Church Building is 540 metres high and has 100 floors, each of which is at least 5 metres tall. As a result, the Central Holy Church is also known as the legendary building closest to where the gods are located.

Suddenly, the wind and rain became heavier and heavier. The children who were running outside were taken home by adults, and the merchants saw that the sky was not right, and they hurriedly closed the shops. The usual bustling streets are now empty, the rain washes the steam cars on both sides of the road, and the oak trees that line the streets are bent and almost broken in the wind and rain.

Central Chapel, 85th floor, central nave.

Purple-white lightning flowed through the clouds, tearing through wound after wound. Anyone who is afraid of nature when seen up close is a level of divine punishment.

A gust of wind mixed with thunder and lightning slammed against the white walls of the central church of the Holy Church, rippling like fallen leaves falling into a lake, and the light of the lake spread out in all directions, but unexpectedly blew open the windows. The milky white curtains fluttered in the wind, like a beautiful girl dancing, writhing gracefully - the rain was sprinkled everywhere.

The priestly knights, who were standing in the shadows of the temple, hurriedly went up to close the windows, pressed the locks tightly, closed the heavy modal curtains, and quickly completed a series of actions before returning to the corner and quietly waiting for orders.

A thunderclap flashed outside the window, and under the violent humming sound, the central holy church was still calm.

"Da, da......"

The sound of jade hitting the table echoed in the temple, and the priesthood knight subconsciously looked towards the location where the sound came from.

A ten-meter-long conference table made of ivory occupies the very center of the Central Temple, carved with sea, shells, rainbows, and the highest quality light elemental crystals from one end to the other. Old men in robes to cover their faces sat around the table, and the atmosphere was far more gloomy than the heavy rain outside the window.

The old man who was pounding the table with the jade in his hand stopped his withered right hand, and he slowly spoke, breaking the silence.

"At 7:47:32 last night, the royal weapon placed on the 54th floor of the Central Holy Church was placed in the Ordnance Border Management Bureau...... The first king Altros's royal weapon conviction resonates. In order to prevent the Guilty Illusory Sword from being transmitted to the hands of the royal bloodline through resonance, I placed it on the ninety-fifth floor of the Stargazing Temple, which shielded the resonance induction. ”

"The awakening of the king? How so! The old man closest to the end of the long table asked, incredulously.

"It's already happened, is it still pointy to ask how this happened? The problem at hand is that there is a royal bloodline that has not yet been cleared awakened to the royal weapon, but we don't know who it is. Another old man said coldly.

"Hmph, who else is there besides the person responsible for the attack on His Excellency Gwendy a few days ago, the former Marshal of the Praetorian Guard, Ligo Alvidia? I really didn't expect that the mongrel born to the woman of the Moon Clan by Altros would be able to awaken the power of the king. ”

The man's tone was agitated, and he turned his gaze to sneer at the priesthood knight who was waiting for orders in the shadows.

"At this point, I wonder what the hell are you doing! There are twelve priesthood knights, and they can't even catch a woman who has been imprisoned as a hero. What do you want? ”

"That's not what I said." Seeing that his subordinates were being targeted, the face of the old man hiding under the robe of the jade was a little unhappy, "Even if he is imprisoned as a knight, Li Ge is also a strong man with rich combat experience. She grew up on the dark side of the royal capital, this is her second home, playing hide and seek with people in her own home, is it so easy to catch? ”

"Hehe, whatever you say, if you don't catch it, you don't catch it." The man sticks out his tongue, slightly.

The old man swirled the jade between his fingers, and he decided to ignore this person, "There really is such a person of royal blood other than Ligo Alvidia. ”

"—who is it?" The person who was still dissatisfied with him just now suddenly changed his expression.

The old man rubbing the jade snorted coldly: "Have you forgotten? The princess who escaped under the 'royal hunt' five years ago...... Panici Alvidia! ”

"No way, even if she is alive, it is impossible to complete the awakening. Although she inherited the power of the king of Altros, her talent was not even as good as garbage, not even a tenth of that of an ordinary person. Another old man immediately retorted.

"yes. Under normal circumstances, with her talent, even if she had cultivated for hundreds of years, it would be impossible to reach the level of the Awakening Monarch. Of course, this is under normal circumstances-"

The old man suddenly pressed the jade on the conference table, slashed it fiercely, and made a piercing sound!

"What if she comes into contact with the 'Divine Essence'?"

“——！？”

In an instant, the silent air changed completely, and the tense atmosphere set off an invisible hurricane in the Central Organ Temple.

When they heard the word "Divine Essence", the old men were immediately not calm, and strong spiritual power fluctuations rose and fell in the temple, and the sound of oppression and cracking could be faintly heard from the indestructible white wall.

"Calm down, guys. Impulse is the devil who will devour the faith in our hearts. The white-robed man sitting at the head of the long table finally spoke, his voice elegant and calm, calming everyone's restless mood.

"Before I talk about the princess Panishi, I want to discuss with you about the 'Heavenly Punishment'."

The old men glanced at each other, they naturally knew what the Heavenly Punisher was, wasn't it the one who changed the world in the prophecy? However, even those who "believe" in the gods will scoff at the so-called prophecy.

“…… Please speak. ”

In order to respect the young chief of the central organ, the old men suppressed their desire and yearning for the "divine essence", and reluctantly calmed down and listened to the chief's next words.

The Chief muttered:

"A thousand-year disaster, black clouds cover the sun, and cracks fall. Those who are punished by heaven should come to misfortune. He is the darling of the superiors, and he is also the haze of the superiors. He is the embodiment of despair and the god of salvation. Under the legend, the War of Doom. Devouring the eyes, the end of the century. Woe to those who are destined. Blessed are the disobedient ones—"
