The Church of Danton was located in one of the districts of Edland City.
It wasn't exactly a bustling street but it had a lot of houses. With the church as the center, it spread out in all directions.
Kieran strode along the street.
Kieran didn't need to search for more information and he could imagine what the Dandon Church was like during its heyday.
It didn't just have tens of thousands of believers around, it even had its own fields and farms. It was like a self-sufficient little city.
If it continued to develop, it would surely develop into a terrifying city of churches.
Unfortunately …
Three great wars and a hundred years of training.
Without the protection of the Knight, the Church of Danton's power and influence kept weakening.
Not only did it fail to develop, but its influence shrunk step by step. In the end, it was replaced by the rising city of Edland City and became a district of the city.
It wasn't even the biggest and the most prosperous one.
Though, some things still remained.
Architecture and culture.
As Kieran walked along the street, he could see people who maintained the etiquette of the Church of Danton.
Whether it was the adults or the children, everyone stood in front of the stone houses, smiling and bowing.
They weren't stingy with their smiles when they were facing strangers.
If it wasn't for the hidden presence, it would be an admirable scene.
When Kieran brushed past the kind people, a cold glare flashed over from the shadows beside the street.
A figure appeared behind Kieran with speed that couldn't be seen clearly by common men. The dagger in the figure's hand was thrust towards Kieran's neck.
A moment ago, he was still smiling as he walked past Kieran, but now, he was showing his ferocious expression.
The same dagger was thrust towards Kieran's ribs.
A strong stench wafted out from the two daggers.
A series of authentication words popped up in Kieran's vision.
It wasn't poison but … Spirit and Intuition.
It seemed like the two assassins before him were just bait, the real killer move was still in the dark!
Based on his Intuition, Kieran's eyes were looking towards a certain direction.
From the two assassins' point of view, Kieran was intimidated by their words.
How could they let go of such an opportunity?
"Die!"
The assassin who acted as a passerby growled.
The dagger in his hand moved faster and faster.
Then …
Bang, bang!
Amidst the muffled sounds of bones breaking and tendons snapping, the two assassins were kicked away at the same time.
The people around them couldn't see the assassins' speed clearly.
They were even more confused about how Kieran had fought back.
In fact, from their point of view, Kieran hadn't even moved, yet the two assassins had been sent flying.
Without a doubt, it was impossible for the two assassins to survive after being kicked by Kieran.
Kieran didn't even bother to look at the two people he had kicked away. Instead, he chased in the direction he had sensed earlier.
When Kieran kicked away the two abandoned pieces, the person hiding in the dark retreated without leaving any traces.
Of course, that was only what he thought.
With Kieran's [Tracking], the traces were clearly visible.
However, Kieran did not give chase immediately.
He already saw Sister Dandon and the others who were rushing over anxiously.
"Ourin Church!"
Sister Liz Dandon who rushed over cried out in shock when she saw the two identical daggers scattered on the ground. But soon enough, the sister shook her head and said, "How is this possible?"
"What's impossible at this time?
Whether they really made a move or someone framed us, it's enough to show their attitude towards us!
At this time … do we still choose to swallow our anger? "
Kieran asked with a smile.
"No!"
The one who answered wasn't Sister Dandon but the other young sister, Sister Grittel.
The young sister looked at her teacher, took a deep breath and said, "Teacher, we can't go on like this. Dandon's light has dimmed, causing some despicable people to harbor evil intentions. We must use our actions to tell them that our light is still shining!"
"As long as we are with the Griffin Church, we will not be afraid of anyone!"
She didn't lower her voice.
Instead, her voice was filled with rage.
Sister Dandon, including the middle-aged priest, Father Rayman, nodded unconsciously when they heard her words.
Dandon's doctrine was different from Marulyn's.
Although both of them had the side of persuading people to be kind, when faced with some unexpected events, they had a completely different side.
Marulyn advised people to be kind and patient.
Dandon?
If you dare hit me, I'll stab you.
In simple words, Marulyn was more like a kind and friendly priest.
Dandon was a hot-tempered warrior.
In fact, it was because of such doctrine that Marulyn was able to operate so close to Dandon. If it was any other church?
They would have fought countless times.
It was also because of such doctrine that when the last Knight, Knight, passed away, the Church of Danton quickly declined.
The Church of Danton had offended too many people.
Just like the Griffin Church in the past.
No one was a saint, there would be a gap after a battle. Even though they were under the same organization in name, it was still the same.
Sister Dandon looked at her own student.
Sister Dandon was thinking more and had more hesitation in her heart.
She needed to be responsible for the whole Church of Danton.
She was worried that if they started a war with other organizations at this time, it would cause unnecessary casualties.
So, even though it didn't quite match the doctrine of the Church of Danton, Sister Dandon chose a tactful way.
"Even if we want to fight back, we don't know where they are …"
"Want to track where they are?"
"It's not a difficult task — I have the confidence to find them."
Kieran interrupted Sister Dandon.
He apologized again in his heart.
Kieran knew what Sister Dandon was worried about but the opportunity before him was hard to come by.
Before Kieran and Anne Aldrich Augen's plan was activated, someone from the Holy Relic Society had jumped out on their own.
It was such a great opportunity, Kieran didn't want to give it up.
After all, what was fake was fake, no matter how real it was, there would always be an illusion that couldn't be covered up.
It wasn't as good as the real 'evidence'!
Kieran spoke again when he saw the hesitation on Sister Dandon's face.
"Sister Dandon, do you still want to retreat?
"If we continue to back off … Dandon Church that is allied with Griffin Church, if we continue to tolerate it, do you think we can still exist?"
The sharpness of the sword will only show itself after it slays the enemy! "
After that, Kieran didn't wait for a reply and turned around, heading towards the traces that Sister Dandon left behind.
Sister Dandon's face was changing and in the end, she clenched her teeth.
"The glory of Dandon will no longer be questioned!
Send out the Dandon Order, gather all the friars and believers!
Start the Holy War! "
Sister Dandon uttered each and every word with a kind face.
With each word she uttered, the aura on her body grew stronger. When she finished her last word, the kind and kind face was long gone, all that was left was fierceness and the fanaticism that was filled with battle intent.
The others around her shared the same feeling.
Even though they were wearing priest outfits, it was hard to conceal their valiant aura.
It was the aura of a warrior that had been through hundreds of battles.
Souuu!
Bang!
A firework exploded in the bright sky.
An illusory figure wielding a longsword, wearing battle armor and a scarlet red cape appeared in the sky.
Then, the longsword was swung down as if it was decapitating the enemy leader.
Countless commoners saw the scene and cried out in shock.
The mystics' expression changed when they saw the scene.
Especially the elderly, all of them couldn't help but shiver.
"Who provoked this bunch of lunatics?"
