That wisp of darkness appeared without a sound. In the beginning, almost no one noticed its existence.
It was as though it was nothing more than a shadow in the back of the alley.
But at the next moment, a figure emerged from it all of a sudden. A pitch-black, gigantic scythe swept across and instantly covered the pillar of flames that soared into the sky.
At that moment, Steve seemed to have sensed something. But the moment he raised his sword and turned around, the scythe had already severed his neck.
The flames that lost their owner's restraint also began to go berserk, forming a roaring sea of flames.
The scorching, high-temperature elemental flames erupted wildly as though trying to express the pain and anger of losing their owner.
But before they could erupt completely, the silent darkness absorbed everything.
Everyone only felt a flash of explosion before their eyes. At the next moment, everything disappeared without a trace.
Only feather-like ashes fell from the sky, forming a thin layer of snow on the ground.
Then, a slender figure walked out of it.
"How is this possible?"
Morris widened his eyes in shock and stared at the figure in disbelief. Of course, he knew what happened just now.
The young lady killed Steve in an instant, and at the same time, completely absorbed his dissipated power.
This surprised Morris. It would still make sense if Steve launched a sneak attack when he was seriously injured.
But Morris was well aware that Steve had already awakened the Soul Call, which was the ultimate means for a holy knight to stimulate the potential in his body.
It could be said that even Morris didn't dare to go head-on against Steve in that state. But this young lady easily killed Steve, who was almost at his peak state, and even the fire elemental power that Steve gathered was effortlessly wiped out by her. This kind of power wasn't something that just anyone could possess!
Legendary Peak …
At the thought of this, Morris couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. He still remembered that in the previous reports, many sources had coincidentally mentioned that there was a young lady at the peak of the Legendary-realm by the side of Lord Balxianon Mens.
Now, it seemed like it was this young lady in front of him.
But Morris was only surprised for a moment. At the next moment, he felt incomparably shocked. Although Morris had heard from different people through different channels that one of the biggest characteristics of this Sir Overlord was that as long as he was in the right, he would immediately attack, and he would be ruthless in his attacks.
This was also why Morris didn't want to cause too much trouble here from the beginning. But at that time, he was still a little suspicious. No matter what, he was still the representative of the Church of Saint. Even if they really did something out of line, would the other party really dare to kill them?
But now, the scene in front of him told him that the other party really dared to kill.
Tinidale strolled out leisurely and flicked the dust off his cloak.
Steve was nowhere to be seen. His body had been completely annihilated by the uncontrollable fire elements in the previous explosion. The feather-like dust was the last trace of his existence in this world.
"So it's you."
Upon seeing Tinidale's appearance, Pattilina, who was about to fight to the death, humphed softly, and said.
Upon hearing Pattilina's words, Tinidale looked up at her, and nodded.
"Don't go overboard."
"You shouldn't say that to me … Sss, I'll go back and pack up first."
In the face of Tinidale's words, the little one instinctively wanted to say something, but after touching her charred shoulder, she shut her mouth. However, even so, Pattilina had no intention of letting those people off. She glared at Archbishop Edward fiercely, and then turned around to give orders to the magical knights.
"Take these bastards to the dungeon. These bastards really think that Passus is the territory of the Church of Templars. They can do whatever they want. Disarm them!
Take them to the dungeon to repent, and kill anyone who dares to resist!! "
After saying that, Patrina turned her head again, and stared at Archbishop Edward with a sinister smile. However, at this moment, the archbishop seemed to have lost his mind from anger, or had finally realized that the current situation was not suitable for him to make a scene again. Hence, he obediently shut his mouth and stopped talking, though it was unknown if he had passed out from anger, or if he had finally realized that the current situation was not suitable for him to make a scene again.
That clearly made Pattilina rather displeased. She stared at Archbishop Edward's neck for a long time, and finally snorted coldly before raising her right hand and pointing her middle finger at the old archbishop.
"Don't think that I don't know what you're up to, you old fart. The next time you offend me, I'll beat you into minced meat in front of the god you believe in!
I'd like to see what kind of god would be so blind as to look for someone like you as a believer. You really have no taste! "
"You …!"
Upon hearing Pattilina's words, Archbishop Edward's face flushed with anger. He raised his hand and opened his mouth to say something, but unsure if it was due to excessive anger or other reasons, before he could say a word, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
"Archbishop Edward, are you alright, Archbishop?"
Upon seeing that the source of trouble finally shut up, Morris was relieved. He hurriedly pounced on Archbishop Edward and began to call his name loudly.
However, Morris secretly waved his hand at the others. Usually, the clerics would only need to cast a Sobering Spell to save him from a coma.
However, Morris didn't dare to do that now, lest the old man brought more trouble to them. For now, it was better for him to continue fainting!
In the end, these people were escorted away by the Magical Knights. Morris didn't make any special requests because he was well aware that he wasn't qualified to do so in his current state.
As for Steve's death, Morris had nothing to say. If it had been another colleague, Morris might have said a few more words for him.
It was a pity that Steve was a Judge Knight and Judge Knights didn't have a good reputation in the Templar Order.
Most of the holy knights weren't fond of Judge Knights and Morris was no exception.
Therefore, he could only pretend that he didn't witness Steve's death.
But as for what would happen next, only God knew.
"This is all the Templar Order can do."
Looking at the dejected holy knights being taken away, Zayen sneered and shook his head.
Upon hearing his words, Enoya tilted her head curiously and gazed at Jenn.
"Is this really fine?
Master?
Pattilina said that they would be locked up in the dungeon. If this matter spreads … "
"Of course it has to be spread, and it has to be detailed."
Hearing Enoya's question, Jenn snorted and said.
This matter simply couldn't be concealed, because the location of the incident was in the commercial district, and it was also in public, so naturally, it would spread out.
However, Jenn wouldn't allow these rumors to spread. As someone who came from the internet era, he knew very well that whoever controlled the spread of information was equivalent to controlling the people.
Therefore, even if these rumors spread, it would definitely be the version that Jenn needed and not the version that he didn't need.
Although Enoya was a little worried that the Templar Order would use this to cause trouble, Jenn wasn't worried that the Templar Order would vent their anger on him for what happened today. After all, they took the initiative to start a fire, so they shouldn't blame them for getting burned.
And now that the investigation team of the Templar Order was locked up, Jenn was sure that the Templar Order wouldn't let this matter go. But so what?
If the Templar Order decided to do this kind of stupid thing again, Jenn had his own countermeasures.
But before that …
"Alright, it's time for me to go see my subordinates."
When Zayen came to the lounge, he saw that Patrina, who appeared in front of him, was no longer in a sorry state. After seeing Zayen's figure, the little fella immediately jumped up, ran to Zayen's side, and hugged his arm.
"Hahaha, Master, how was it?
I did a good job today, right? "
"Not bad."
Hearing Pattilina's question, Jenn nodded.
"But it would be better if you put in more effort. You also know that in order to build this city, I spent a lot of money."
"Hahaha …"
Hearing Jenn's words, Pattilina stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.
Of course, she knew what Jenn was talking about. One had to know that she went overboard in the end. If she fired that cannon, perhaps that holy knight would be dead, but at the same time, half of the commercial district would be completely destroyed.
Regarding this, Pattilina was also aware of it. At this moment, when she heard Jenn mention it, she naturally felt a little awkward.
However, Jenn didn't reprimand Pattilina for this. He was very clear that this was her personality. When she went crazy, she wouldn't care about anything else.
But now that the matter was resolved, there was no need to hold on to it.
Thinking until here, Jenn couldn't help but take a closer look at Pattilina. At this moment, there was a thick layer of gauze wrapped around her shoulder. Even so, from the blood that oozed out, it could be seen that she suffered a very serious injury this time.
"How long will it take?"
"Only half a month, Master.
That idiot even wanted to destroy my hand. Hmph, does he really think that I'm a pushover? Don't worry, it only looks a little scary, but it's actually fine. "
"That's good."
After touching the little one's head, Jenn turned to look at the girl lying on the bed not far away. That was the witch's child who was injured by Steve previously.
"How is her condition?"
"Still not very good."
Hearing Jenn's question, Pattilina, who didn't care about her own injury, seemed a little depressed at this moment.
"These guys still lack training. I have been teaching them how to learn how to take a beating, but they actually ended up like this … Sigh, I guess it will take a while to recover."
"I-I'm fine, Madam Pattilina, Sir Overlord!"
Hearing Pattilina's words, the girl also hurriedly struggled to get out of the bed, but Irene next to her quickly held her down.
Hearing her answer, Pattilina glared at her.
"You stay on the bed obediently. I know your ability is very interesting, but this is a punishment!
Do you know what punishment is?
I taught you for so many days, and in the end, you met a bullsh * t holy knight and you got beaten up like this?
You stay on the bed obediently. If I don't leave, you're not allowed to leave either, understand? "
"Yes …"
Hearing Pattilina's words, the girl was taken aback. Then, she lowered her head and answered.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Zayen nodded to himself.
Even though Pattilina wasn't polite to these witch's children, their relationship was indeed deep. It seemed that it was useful for Jenn to let Pattilina use the military training method to train these witch's children.
After all, these witch's children had experienced a lot of suffering in the human world, and ordinary families and care were really unimaginable to them.
Since that was the case, he might as well let them learn the military training method to create a collective sense of honor.
And since the witch's children were in the same boat, they were more suitable for this method. And now, it seemed that the effect was pretty good.
Just as Zayen was about to say something else to Patrina, Enoya quietly came to his side and said in a low voice, "Don't worry about me.
"Master, the representative of Coruncia wishes to meet you."
"Oh?"
Hearing Enoya's words, Jenn was taken aback for a moment. Then, the corners of his lips curled up.
As expected, the trouble caused by the Holy Church this time brought me a lot of benefits.
