Jasmine was silent for a mont, unsure if her organization was to bla for the continent's current problems. However, she had agreents with Vicente and trusted Layla a lot. If the two were taking this approach, she had to at least give them a vote of confidence and try to understand the matter better.",
"All right. I understand." She sighed and decided to study the case on her own to co to her own conclusions.
It was pointless to argue with Vicente and Layla. She had nothing to use in defense of the Congregation of Revelations in relation to young Fuller's attacks. For now, the best thing to do was to back off, accept the situation, and gather information.
Layla saw the look on her friend's face and figured Jasmine would try to do what she herself had already done. She then pulled out a spatial ring from her storage item and handed it to her friend.
"All the traces I found in the temples our group passed are here. You can look over them in your spare ti and co to your own conclusions."
Jasmine looked into Layla's gray eyes and felt even more doubtful about this woman's behavior.
Vicente dropped the subject and asked. "Do you know anything about the Congregation of Revelations after the fall of the northern region? We have so information from when we passed through the Kingdom of Eternal Dawn. But we're not privy to many details."
Even if she wanted to, she couldn't hide anything from him. So she sighed and said. "I know that the new Congregation of Revelations headquarters is in Tamor Dynasty, the south-westernmost state of the Polaris Realm.
The temple in that state's capital is now the organization's headquarters, and it currently has 11 Paragons: one High-level, three Mid-level, and seven Low-level Paragons.
Their plan is to protect themselves against the wave of monsters that began with The Purification and to prepare for the next moves of the high-level vampires. They're recruiting new mbers for the organization and calling the principal mbers of temples around the south to the dynasty.
If you'd taken another month to return, you probably wouldn't have found here. I, and you too, Layla, have been called to the capital of the dynasty."
"Eleven Paragons? It seems the Congregation of Revelations has fallen on hard tis." Vicente muttered to himself, feeling the impact of the vampires' attack on this continental force.
"Yes, unfortunately. Demien Bloodthorne attacked the City of Angels personally, killing over 60% of the temple's experts. From what I heard, he alone killed over 100 Paragons that day."
Layla clenched her fists, affected by this information. It didn't matter if the Congregation of Revelations had betrayed the magical community. Losing 100 Paragons to a single opponent was terrible for the entire continent.
If Demien Bloodthorne was that strong, then defeating him would be a big problem for their group!
"That's a sha," Vicente said with sincere regret.
Ultimately, whether they had betrayed and used the continent's forces, the Congregation of Revelations would still be important to the continent if they hadn't lost so much.
He walked ahead of the two won, towards the exit of the Awakening Platform, with both of them following behind him without delay. Lauren was clearly with Vicente, listening to the group's conversations in silence, still thinking about the correction she had suffered earlier.
"What do we do now?" Jasmine asked. "If Layla and I don't move, it'll only be a matter of ti before we run into trouble. If what you said is true, then they'll be able to find us whenever they want."
"If they can do that at this terrible ti, let them co. But I doubt this will happen. It would simply be too dangerous to move around for months in dangerous terrain on account of Sovereigns."
"You don't intend to ally yourself with them in the future? After all, they still have a lot of Sovereigns and a few Paragons. As far as I know, Tamor Dynasty isn't doing so badly.
It's kept several of its Paragons and can be considered the last safe haven for magicians on the continent," Jasmine said as she looked at Vicente.
"If they can keep working against the monsters, good. However, I won't ally myself with those responsible for the current calamity. And I'm not sure that the dynasty will remain the last refuge for magicians on the continent. Soon Seidel Kingdom will be an even better alternative!"
With that said, he left Layla and Jasmine at the entrance to Grandis' temple before heading with Lauren to Seidel Magic College, where Newton was supposed to be.
Vicente didn't understand why Newton was still in the capital if Nina had gone to tal City. But he could clearly feel the magical aura of the guy he wanted to talk to now.
He'd soon be passing through the gates of the college, where students and family mbers of students who hadn't left Grandis in ti were currently living.
Classes at Seidel's Magic College were continuing, despite everything. The institution that had previously only been present in the kingdom's capital was now also present in tal City, where half the teachers were teaching the students who had moved there.
The other half of the teachers were in the capital, working to keep training magicians so that the kingdom could get through this difficult period in its history.
After passing many huts and tents built to house the families of the students left behind, Vicente arrived at the main classroom, where he soon ca across Newton giving a lecture to a group of 40 students.
"Professor, I'm sorry to interrupt your class." Vicente said as he appeared at the entrance to a small amphitheater, drawing everyone's attention.
Newton looked at Vicente and his eyes lit up, looking at this young man and realizing who the black-haired girl next to Vice was.
"I see... You've succeeded in your journey north." Newton murmured with a smile on his face, before turning to his students and saying, "Continue studying from where we left off while I talk to my friend."
He went ahead and greeted Vicente, then took the two youths to his office, which was just a short walk from the college's teaching area.
