....
The Holy Priestess returned to the sacred chamber where no one else could see her.
Throughout the night, she had maintained a calm exterior even when the Holy Emperor went against her. However, as soon as she returned to the privacy of the sacred chamber, she revealed her real self.
She started throwing things left and right, her expressions so dark that it looked like she wanted to rip the Holy Emperor apart with her bare hands.
If the Holy existence of the Necromancer Tower wasn't sothing that she had to worry about, she wouldn't have cared about anything else and killed the Holy Emperor during the banquet itself.
The Holy Emperor lived so long, thanks to her rcy. And now that she needed him to die, he was acting up?
"That foolish man! Does he think he can go against if he gets the help from the Eastern Continent? That bastard doesn't know that even those from the Eastern Continent are nothing more than pawns for !"
She initially wanted to use Eren and then kill him. But now that Eren was clearly working with the Holy Emperor, there was no need for him to live a second longer.
She soon left the sacred chamber and t with Cardinal Treniel who was going to escort Eren to investigate the Northern Continent.
Cardinal Treniel had just returned to the Sacred Church, looking a little confused. For so reason, he didn't rember what happened. It was as if he had forgotten sothing really important. Did he really fall asleep? Was he that tired?
He could feel that sothing was wrong, but he didn't have ti to think about it. As soon as he returned, he was summoned by the Holy Priestess.
When reached the eting room, he noticed that no other Cardinals were here. Only the Holy Priestess was sitting in the room that was barely lit with a few candles.
He greeted the Holy Priestess, remaining standing and waiting for her instructions.
"Tomorrow, you are going to the Northern Continent's territory with the Eastern Envoys?" The Holy Priestess asked.
"That is correct." Treniel nodded.
"None of them should return alive, especially that man. At the sa ti, you should die as well..." The Holy Priestess said without a shift in her reaction.

Hearing her words, Treniel went blank. Did she really want him to die? Was it to convince the Demon Sect that it was the work of the Necromancer Tower?
Even though he was instructed to die, he was willing to do it. If it was for the Holy Priestess, everything was worth it.
"I will make it happen." He agreed without even the slightest of resistance. He turned around to leave after having received his instructions.
"There is one more thing..." The Holy Priestess said, making Treniel, who was just at the threshold of the exit, stop.
As Treniel heard what the Holy Priestess said, his eyes narrowed. A strange smile spread across his lips. Silently nodding, he left the room and disappeared into the maze of hallways spread throughout the Holy Church.
The Holy Priestess was left alone in the room, talking to herself, "The Holy Emperor, huh. I look forward to seeing how you react when your entire world falls apart tomorrow."
....
Throughout the night, the Cardinal prepared as per the instructions of the Holy Priestess. Tomorrow was going to be a big day for him as he had to kill two Great Elders.
Even for him, it was not easy to kill two Great Elders when he was in the Territory of the Northern Continent.
In the Northern Continent, he couldn't receive the blessing of the goddess. In the Northern Continent, he was weaker than he was in the Western Continent.
On the contrary, Eren and Zia weren't affected by territories. Their strength was the sa, no matter which continent they entered, as long as they weren't affected by an Overlord's domain like the Holy Priestess' domain that Eren experienced before.
Treniel knew that it was not easy to have Eren and Zia killed in the Northern Continent. It would have been even harder if the third great elder had also accompanied them.
Fortunately, the Holy Priestess had already arranged for Xiu Ying, deciding to et her tomorrow, keeping her back.
Only Eren and Zia were going to accompany him to this trip, which made this plan a lot more plausible. Only his death was the complicated factor in all of this.
The night felt extrely long since tomorrow was going to be such a big day for the Cardinal.
While he was busy preparing to take down Eren, the man in question was more carefree.
Eren let his clone take the position of the Holy Emperor as it was able to use the sa aura as him. Now that he had also removed all Traitors, the Royal Palace also beca a lot safer for his clone.
While leaving his clone to take the position of the Holy Emperor for now, he stayed behind with Xiu Ying.
It had been a long ti since he t Xiu Ying. The girl was also quite stubborn about staying in his room, to the point that he had to send others back to their rooms.
Unlike the other nights, there were no moaning sounds that could be heard through the corridor,as a silencing barrier was cast this ti. No one heard what was happening inside the room.
After so long, Xiu Ying was finally able to sleep in Eren's embrace. As she was away from him for a long ti, she had been longing for him. She felt an extre sense of separation.
After a long ti, she was finally able to taint Eren's body with her scent again, marking her territory.
Throughout the night, she didn't let Eren rest for even a minute. Or was it Eren who didn't let her rest? It was impossible to find the right answer as both of them were just as passionate throughout the night with Eren exploring every inch of Xiu Ying's body.
