Chapter 124 - Is That All?

Patience’s successor?

Haverion was taken aback by Ian’s statement.

King Eloin raised an eyebrow as well.

Nevertheless, Ian shouted again with a stern gaze.

“Can’t you hear me? Strike him!”

  

However, the ministers and even the soldiers of the royal guard could not move.

It was understandable.

  

“But the other person is…”

“If any issues arise, it will turn into a diplomatic problem…”

 

Haverion was not just a priest.

He was one of the seven cardinals directly under the pope, the supreme leader of the Holy Empire.

Moreover, many among the soldiers shared his faith.

‘But how can we strike him!’

‘If we are ostracized by the priests for the rest of our lives, we won’t go to heaven!’

‘He’s a priest, after all…’

On the other hand, Haverion’s pupils were shaking violently. He could not believe what the youngest had said.

Since childhood, he had been blessed with divine power, eventually becoming the youngest cardinal in the Holy Empire.

‘He dare accuse me of being the pawn of evil?’

Haverion was beyond enraged.

But the humiliation did not end there.

The heresy inquisitor beside him urgently shouted.

“Your Eminence!”

Chk!

At last, the royal guards pointed their spears at him.

It was no wonder.

Woong!

Patience’s light, as bright as the sun, was an impeccable symbol of nobleness.

‘That orange light…’

Although it was clearly a fairy tale, it resembled a phenomenon he had read about in ancient texts.

It was apparent to everyone that Ian had a valid justification.

Moreover, it was a light so brilliant it blew away even the slightest doubt settling in a corner of their hearts just by looking at it.
