Chapter 186

Three days later, night fell on Noland.
A small church located in a corner of Noland. This church was shabby compared to the churches in the Holy Kingdom, and there were only about 20 clergymen inside.
The purpose of this church was to provide a place for students from the Holy Kingdom to study in Noland to worship.
But today, there was an uninvited guest hiding in the shadow of the church.
Paster yawned. She hid in the shadows of the church in her bat form.
As a Blood Breed, she should be most active at night, but for the past few days, Pester had been spending her time visiting the Hearthstone Tavern during the day.
Of course, the purpose of visiting the Hearthstone Tavern was to convince the prince to return to the Nephilim Realm with him.
Unfortunately, Josiah was very determined. To be precise, Pester had no reason to drag him back to the Nephilim Realm.
Josiah's life in Noland was so peaceful that Pester couldn't believe it. Not to mention staying in the Hearthstone Tavern, even if Josiah walked on the streets, no one would try to chase him away.
Every time Pester saw the female Paladin Messiah and Josiah chatting happily, she wanted to remind her, "This is a Chaos Demon standing in front of you! It's an extremely dangerous enemy in your scriptures! You should take out your sword and not shout that you'll give up if you don't give me a legendary card!! "
Even though she was on the Nephilim Realm's side, Pester still felt a little … despair for the peaceful relationship between the Paladin and the Demon Prince.
Indeed despair. If she wanted to bring Josiah back to the capital, she had to let Josiah understand the dangers of the human world.
But Josiah was living a very peaceful life. The church didn't even bother to find trouble with this Chaos Demon, as if he was a harmless creature.
The experiences of the past three days had left Pester exhausted.
The only hope for her to complete her mission was for the church to remember that a Chaos Demon was living in a human city and send an army to eliminate it.
Only then would she have enough confidence to convince Josiah to leave the city.
That was why Pester had been keeping an eye on Noland's small church recently. However, apart from a dozen or so Holy Army soldiers who frequented the Hearthstone tavern, the rest of the people were nuns and clergymen who had no fighting power.
Not to mention the Chaos Fiends, even Paster could kill them one by one with just a little bit of time. They wouldn't pose enough of a threat for Josiah to escape from Noland.
Wait a minute …
Pester's pupils suddenly opened, her scarlet pupils glowing in the darkness. She jumped down from the roof in her bat form, flapped her wings and flew towards a window on the top floor of the church.
She sensed a spatial magic wave, which was very similar to the magic aura used by the sinful demons, so there was no way she would be wrong.
This bunch of bastards from the Church had built a teleportation circle under this small church!
Pester couldn't find the path to the bottom of the church, so she could only stay on the top floor and wait for the teleportation circle to activate.
Building any kind of teleportation circle in Norland without permission would cause a lot of trouble, so the scale of the teleportation circle at the bottom of the church was very small. Pester estimated that it could only teleport three to four people at once, based on the overflowing mana.
The next recharge would take three to four days, so it was impossible for an entire Holy Army to appear in this teleportation.
The mana overflowing from the teleportation circle gradually dissipated, and in a short five minutes, Pester heard footsteps coming from inside the church.
Four people … Pester 'sniffed' the scent in the air and instantly determined that there were four people walking out of the church.
Three of them had a scent that disgusted Pester … Heresy Inquisitors of the Church.
The other one … was abnormally weak in terms of mana perception. A normal clergyman?
Pester climbed onto the roof in her bat form and used her unique bat organ to listen to the conversation of the three Heresy Inquisitors.
Pester had dealt with these executioners for a period of time when she founded Black Dove. She once drank the blood of a Heresy Inquisitor.
She obtained some crazy knowledge from the blood. Although she forced herself to forget these memories, she still learned the 'language' of the Heresy Inquisitors.
The Inquisitors had a special way of communicating with each other, and Pester could intervene in this communication, or rather, eavesdrop.
"The bishop shouldn't have ordered us to come to Noland at this time. We can cut off the head of a Chaos Demon at any time, but to weaken that Brass Dragon in Blackwood Forest, we worked hard for over a hundred years …"
"Watch your words, Inquisitor Rollafor … The endless knowledge we seek is also built with the help of the Church. This mission won't last long, seven days. If we can't complete it in seven days, we'll return to Blackwood Forest."
"Two Inquisitors and twelve Inquisitors. This is half of the people of the Heresy Inquisitor who were enlightened. Back then, only fifteen Inquisitors were sent to assassinate the king of White Stream Duchy. What did that Chaos Demon do?"
"…"
Pester let out a sigh of relief as she eavesdropped on the discussion of the three Inquisitors.
As someone from the Realm of Devils, Pester was happy to hear that the Church was coming to assassinate her prince.
That way, she would have enough reason to bring Josiah back to the Realm of Devils …
Among the 14 Judges, there were even two Presiding Judges. It was hard for Pester to imagine who could escape this assassination without sufficient preparation and protection from powerful subordinates.
The only one who could protect Josiah in the Hearthstone Tavern was Josiah himself. That succubus could not fight at all.
So, in order to escape the attack of the Inquisitors, Josiah could only return to the Realm of Devils. He would be absolutely safe there.
Pester crouched on the roof of the church and felt the magic aura coming from underneath the church. It was gradually disappearing.
The teleportation circle under the church could not be used continuously. Pester estimated that it would take two days to recharge, so it would take at least six days for the Inquisitors to reach Noland …
In other words, six days later would be the time for the assassination …
The Inquisitors could not operate outside the Holy City for long. A week to half a month was already the limit, unless they were accompanied by the Church's choir.
