Chapter 851 Decision of the Church Leaders

It was late afternoon in the Rablus region, where the great meeting of the continental experts was scheduled to take place in the next few hours.

In the place in question, a forest further east in the empire, was the camp where the meeting would take place, and some experts and their groups were already there.

Most of the participants had not yet arrived, so while they waited, the first groups there took the time to talk about their expectations.

The movements of the women of Lothur had been quite alarming and had quickly attracted the attention of almost every high-level power on the continent.

Everything had happened so quickly that the next day's meeting would be held in one of the camps used by the Sage of the coalition that had previously hunted Lothur!

From one hour to the next, the enemy had changed, increasing the difficulty of the problem exponentially.

With this in mind, some of the strongest members of the Seraphim Church, level 24 and 25 Sages, stood around. They commented on the matter, worried about the veracity of Lothur's women's claims.

"I don't think it's a lie." One of the strongest Sages in the group said with a terrible expression. "I sense something bad is about to happen. Some of our old acquaintances, maybe even ourselves, will die soon."

"Is that so, elder?" A level 24 woman asked the level 25 man.

"That's what I feel."

"Elder Apel's feeling must be correct." Another level 25 man, the second of the two strongest elders of the Seraphim Church, agreed. "The demons' movements in the last few weeks have been bizarre. They're up to something."

"Then what..."

As one of the five level 24 Sages of the Church was about to ask a question, Viktoria approached the experts of the Seraphim Church alongside Smoke and a Pegasus and caught their attention.n)(o.(v(.e..l--B-(1--n

As someone who had reached level 25, even though she had a relatively weak soul for her level, she deserved respect throughout the continent, even from experts of the rank of the seven Church representatives there.

Looking at Viktoria, everyone recognized her as the wife of the hybrid who had been their enemy until recently.

"Viktoria Frost." Elder Sandro Apel murmured while Viktoria had an icy expression on her beautiful face.

"Elders of the Seraphim Church." She greeted them before continuing with what she had to say. "I hope we can stop the animosity between us and fight for the sake of destroying the demons. All that matters now is that we stop this threat."

Thomas Fehr, the other level 25 Sage of the Church, agreed, glad to see this woman wouldn't jeopardize a possible coalition between them because of past problems.

"Everyone here has their losses and reasons for regretting or hating certain groups. But with the possibility of the Demon Emperor's return, there's nothing else to distract us." Thomas commented. "So let's work together if this is our reality.

Perhaps we made a mistake in pursuing Lothur Ritter for months. But from our point of view, he was a big threat that had to be stopped if we didn't want to lose the continent. Unfortunately, we made a mistake and made life difficult for the man who could have become Concordia's greatest demon hunter.

These high-ranking Church cultivators had nothing to do with what their organization was doing to hunt Lothur. Most of them hadn't even heard of him until recently, when the news that he had reached the level of the continent's strongest began to circulate in the Ancestral Region.

In any case, they were the ones behind the Seraphim Church, and they didn't shy away from the responsibility of supporting the men who had actually pursued Lothur's journey and perhaps even hindered it.

Looking deeply at Viktoria, elder Apel asked. "Viktoria, how many Soul Bones do you really have?"

They had information that Viktoria most likely didn't have a complete Spirit Body. However, this didn't make sense to them since even the strongest human in history had only reached level 25 after absorbing his 10th Soul Bone.

Since the strength of each person willing to fight the demons was very important, this elder was naturally curious to know if Viktoria could still strengthen herself to help the World Coalition.

No matter how risky it was to raise someone like her, they wanted to have that option in case they needed it!

Viktoria looked at the old man, who had more than three times her soul strength and replied. "I have 8 Soul Bones."

All seven members of the Church looked at her differently after her answer.

'If that's true, she'll probably surpass the soul strength level of the strongest person in all of our history.' The two level 25 Sages thought the same thing as they looked at each other discreetly.

'What are we going to do with her, old man?' Thomas asked.

'Not much for now. If a continental war breaks out, we'll send some of us to hunt demon emperors, so we'll have the bones to her. If things get desperate, we'll give them to her so she can help us.' Apel said, aware that if they raised Viktoria, she might become the next difficult enemy to deal with.

But better a human enemy than a demon!

He was willing to risk the continent's situation for Viktoria if necessary!

"So that's it... You really are talented." Apel said with a smile on his face. "Then it might be interesting for you not to fight on the front lines if a war breaks out. If a war spreads across the continent, the best scenario for us is for you to protect yourself in a highly protected facility until we can help you complete your Spirit Body.

Only then can you truly help us!"

Viktoria opened her mouth in surprise at hearing this, not expecting the members of the Church to suggest this to her.

"Would you be willing to do that?" She asked.

Thomas looked into Victoria's brown eyes and said. "We would do everything in our power for the good of the continent.

If the Demon Emperor is really back, even the dead in our lands will suffer. That's how terrible he is!"

"Hmmm. Even for an old enemy like you, Viktoria Frost, I wouldn't mind if you inherited my Soul Bones if I fell on the battlefield." A level 24 woman said there, aware there was a risk that some of them would die if the strongest demons were back on the continent.

When a human expert died, their bones had to be distributed not to their heirs but to those most capable of replacing them in the defense of their sect, organization, or even continent.

lightsnοvεl Since no level 24 or 25 Church Sage had room to add new Soul Bones to their bodies when someone died there, their bones would be distributed to beings between levels 22 and 23.

Since Victoria existed, she would naturally take the lead from anyone who could inherit the bones of human experts!
