Chapter 255
I Do What I Can Do (4)
Lelm de Fars, the headquarters of the Althea Church in southern Allendia.
A golden river flew over the holy city, built at the foot of the huge Taron Mountains to the south.
Catillon of Light and the tens of thousands of angels he led were hovering above it.
Standing tall amid the brilliant sky, Catillon frowned as he looked at the city.
“Well…”
Was that the city of light?
It was glowing too much.
Fluttering!
The entirety of it was in flames.
Most of the buildings collapsed, and the towers and battlements were charred.
Still, there was not a single person in it.
Of course, that wasn’t done by the Devil’s powers.
When the apostle arrived, it was already in that state.
The Althea Church set its territory on fire and fled to its headquarters.
“I’m at a loss.”
Catillon was ordered to attack it, properly filtering out Latnains and destroying the entire city to a state of suspension as a result, but…
“What am I supposed to do?”
The other apostles of the Devil were also having similar problems to Catillon.
It wasn’t just Althea of Light.
Yessen of Fire, Rhamniana of Water, Preleu of Wind, and Sorondi of Earth.
The locations of their Churches were in the same situation.
Their cities had already been destroyed, and those who needed to be filtered out had already scattered.
“How do I proceed?”
But the suffering of the apostles didn’t last long.
“Judgment is for Omphalos, our great Lord.”
“Faithful servants just follow.”
Their prayers reached their God.
‘What should I do?’
They heard a response from God.
“It’s unexpected, but those aren’t beyond the scope of our plan.”
Omphalos continued nonchalantly, examining the burning Churches through his apostles.
“Come back. There’s nothing more to do there.”

At a large building that was once the western residence of Armorica and was now a temporary palace, hundreds of priests gathered.
Pope Atlas I of the Althea Church and Saintess Alexis Renaulta.
Pope Tolston and Saintess Cecilia Bayle of the Rhamniana Church.
They were seniors of both Churches.
The Fairy King Sormel greeted them politely.
“Well done. It would never have been an easy decision…”
Atlas shook his head.
“The incarnation of darkness commanded it. How can we not obey?”
As always, Ryu Han-bin’s opinion was simple.
If they couldn’t protect all six Churches, they just had to bring them all together.
Using Effir’s mobility, he found a way to contact them.

Armorica’s network was destroyed, but some temples of the Churches were still intact. As the center of the continent where all the wealth of Latna gathered, there was a separate crystal ball for communication.
Artis found a usable one and activated it. Leon Hart, the Templar Lord of Kybriel, delivered the command of the incarnation to each Church.
Each Church, of course, didn’t take it easy.
It was unthinkable for those who served Goddesses to abandon the main headquarters of their denomination, especially since they were meant to be protected even at the cost of their lives.
It was no different from telling the head of the household to kill their beloved family and seek refuge alone.
But they couldn’t help it.
The situation was that urgent.
-Human life is more important than mere buildings.
They left their bases with tears of blood under the incarnation’s command.
They set fire to and destroyed the cities as well.
Each Church had accumulated valuable treasures, knowledge, and wisdom for many years, and they couldn’t take all of those with them.
But they couldn’t let the spawns of the Devil destroy such precious objects.
Hence, they buried everything deep in their basements and made the structures collapse over them.
Only by direct destruction could the underground warehouse appear to be completely collapsed on the surface while actually keeping it safe and sound.
Afterward, they gathered in Armorica, avoiding fights as much as possible.
The relatively close Althea and Rhamniana Churches had already arrived, and the Yessen, Preleu, and Sorondi Churches were also moving across the continent.
Of course, they couldn’t help but run into the escapees of the Four Prohibited Areas, so just retreating to where the rest were already cost a lot of bloodsheds.
Cecilia, the Saintess of Water, anxiously asked Sormel.
“Have you heard anything about the Templar Lords?”
Sormel shook his head without saying a word.
There was still no information on the elite forces of the defeated Three Continental Powers.
Alexis, the Saintess of Light, suddenly looked around.
“By the way, where’s the incarnation of darkness?”
They couldn’t see Kibie and her colleagues like the Sword King and the Spiritual Boxer. Only an old Spiritist was there in their stead.
Plater spoke.
“They’re heading to the Church of Darkness.”
The Darkness Church hadn’t arrived yet.
Since it was the closest to Armorica, they should have arrived first.
“I hear they have work to do there.”

At the headquarters of the Kybriel Church, in the middle of the sky overlooking Scotaskia, the silver-maned Wyvern carrying a giant warrior on her back actively flew among a large group of angels.
“Ahhhhhhhh!”
A red wave separated the golden river with a shout.
Dozens of angels fell like leaves at the might of his sword.
“Let’s go again, Effir!”
“Sure!”
Holding onto Effir’s mane, Ryu Han-bin glared at his opponents.
A group of angels was split once more, causing them to spill golden fluids.
Boom!
Flying swiftly through the explosion, Han-bin squinted.
As he had felt in Armorica, these angels were a little different from the other enemies he met in Latna.
“As expected, no matter how many times I kill them, I don’t get any experience.”
“So do I.”
Was it because they were under the Devil? Or was there another reason?
“It doesn’t matter.”
With a smile full of ferocity, Ryu Han-bin swung his Gigant.
