Revelof, draped in a black robe, left the temple and set off toward his destination. The residents of the Holden estate, who had gathered in Rovel, watched him walk with conflicted emotions.
"Church Leader, and Lord Kyros---please save us."
The followers of Kyros Church prayed to the Church Leader Leviathan and to Kyros.
"Please, give us hope."
And even those estate residents who were not followers of Kyros Church regarded Leviathan as their last hope.
Until recently, they had scarcely believed the stories they heard from Lord Leira Holden.
But regardless of their disbelief, ti passed, and finally the day of the Demon God's attack arrived.
In the end, even the residents who had been detached from reality had to accept it.
Just then, Revelof reached the vicinity of the clock tower. The eyes of those nearby were drawn to the appearance of the Kyros Church's Church Leader.
The knights of the Holden family, including the dical personnel waiting nearby, all looked at him.
Revelof, draped in his black robe, wore glasses as usual, and his golden hair fluttered in the wind.
His excessively beautiful appearance, contrasting with the overcast sky, was almost unreal.
Fanatic, upon seeing him, recalled the orders in his head.
'Fanatic, your unit is to guard around the clock tower. Even if he is the Church Leader of Kyros Church he is, unforeseen circumstances might occur.'
To carry out the orders received from his lord, Lord Leira Holden, Fanatic and his unit waited near the clock tower.
'Of course, the Church Leader is undoubtedly a strong person under any circumstances.'
How this situation would unfold was unpredictable for anyone. Moreover, no one had expected a massive rift incident to occur throughout the entire estate.
'According to the words of the Church Leader and our Lord... High-ranking monsters, known as the Children of the Demon God, will appear.'
Fanatic felt his heart tremble, and tried hard not to show it.
Fear and tension are what make us human, but he doesn't need those when he's leading a unit.
Fanatic was well aware of the power of Leviathan, the Kyros Church Church Leader. He, too, had once received help from Leviathan. Therefore, though he felt so nervousness, he did not betray his trust in Leviathan.
"Is it really safe to entrust everything to that person?"
It was while Fanatic was staring blankly up at the clock tower that the voice of Sein, the leader of Eagle Unit Fanatic was leading, was heard.
Fanatic turned his gaze toward Sein. A man with a sturdy, bear-like appearance ca into view. Sein, who, contrary to his appearance, had a hobby of flower-arranging. Fanatic looked at him for a mont before turning his gaze back to the clock tower.
"I doubt that Kyros Church Leader...will be able to handle this matter properly."
Hearing Sein's voice filled with doubt, Fanatic tightly shut his eyes and then opened them. Staring at Leviathan, he said:
"Sein, are you looking down on
right now? No---rather, it even sounds like you are looking down our Lord, Count Holden."
"I---I did not an it that way...!"
At Fanatic's cold words, Sein beca flustered and embarrassed. Then Fanatic's lips curved into a slight smile, as if he were joking.
"Yes. I know what you ant. But rember that, as the unit leader, if you---of all people---say such things, it can clearly be regarded as a violation of orders and considered punishable."
"I'm sorry."
"All these matters have been decided by our Lord, and we simply have to follow her orders."
"Yes. I'll keep that in mind."
Fanatic slowly nodded as he listened to Sein's answer. Then he smiled playfully.
"Well, I get why you're worried. You probably have never actually witnessed what that person has done firsthand."
During the previous battle, when Fanatic had received help from Leviathan, Sein had been unable to participate due to his injury. No matter how many stories one hears about Leviathan's achievents, seeing it with one's own eyes is an entirely different matter.
Fanatic himself, had he been in a situation similar to Sein's, might not have been able to believe in the sudden appearance of Leviathan.
"But...you can trust him. I'm not saying this simply because I am a follower of the Kyros Church."
A soft smile curved Fanatic's lips. As a mber of "WLL(We Love Leviathan) Club
