Kieran glanced over the warrior mirage that flashed across the sky and walked towards the church in front of him without stopping.
In front of the flight of stairs that was as grand as Danton Church's entrance, hundreds of friars in long robes stood solemnly.
Three armored Knight stood in front of the crowd.
The mantle that they took off stated their identity as apprentices.
"Halt!
Outsider! "
One of the apprentice Knight shouted loudly at Kieran who was approaching him.
Kieran turned a deaf ear and continued walking forward as if he didn't see anything.
Kieran wasn't surprised by the obstructors before him.
He knew with the appearance of the Dandon Medallion, as long as the intruder wasn't an idiot, he would have his guard up.
But so what?
Although an unprepared enemy was much easier to deal with than a prepared one, Kieran would never regret what he said to Sister Liz just now.
Because without the Church of Danton joining him, Kieran, who had lost his believers, friars, nuns, priests, and deacons, with only a single Knight left, the remnant of the Griffin Church would be no different from a joke to the whole Holy Relic Society.
If he wanted to regain a place for the Griffin Church in the Holy Relic Society, he wouldn't even have the right to do it again.
In fact, even with the Church of Danton joining him, Kieran would only look a little better, he wouldn't have to act out a one-man show all by himself.
If he wanted to gain the real right?
Kieran raised his head and looked at the obstructors before him. Through [Tracking], he saw footprints hidden behind the church's door.
Without a doubt, the one who tried to assassinate him before came from the church before him.
Or more precisely, the Ourin Church.
Unlike Marulyn who had always coexisted with the Church of Danton, the Ourin Church migrated here a hundred years after the war according to the Holy Relic Society's order. The migration happened after the Church of Danton lost their last Knight.
His actions and the timing he chose were enough to draw the displeasure of the Church of Danton.
However, the order from the Holy Relic Society and the fact that they had lost their last Knight forced the Church of Danton to compromise.
From that moment on, all the mystics knew about the fall of the Church of Danton.
Many people even hoped that it would disappear in the long river of history like the other churches.
The Ourin Church was like that.
Since they were competing with the Church of Danton for Edland City, they couldn't tolerate Danton's rise again.
Therefore, they chose to use dishonorable methods.
Therefore, they gave Kieran the opportunity to qualify!
"Hand over the person who tried to kill me!"
Kieran said coldly.
"Outsider, what nonsense are you babbling about?"
"This is the noble Ourin Church, leave now!"
The Trainee Knight chased Kieran away again.
Compared to the first time, this time he wasn't just saying it with words.
The moment his words subsided, he raised his hand and tried to push Kieran's shoulder.
However, Kieran's feet were faster.
When the palm was a dozen centimeters away from Kieran's shoulder, Kieran had already landed a kick on his chest.
Bang!
A footprint was dented inwards on his armor and the knight was sent crashing into the friars behind him.
Chang, Chang!
The other two Trainee Knight drew their swords from their waist without a second thought and swung them at Kieran from left and right respectively.
However, at the next moment, the two swords that tore the air apart were grabbed by Kieran's hand.
That's right, he grabbed them!
He used his palm and fingers to block the sharp blades.
However, to everyone's astonishment, Kieran's palm wasn't damaged at all. On the contrary, the swords that were forged from fine steel and were burning in flames were giving out a heavy clanging noise.
Gak Tss Tss!
Amidst the clanging noise, the two Trainee Knight's faces were filled with disbelief. The two Trainee Knight who weren't wearing their helmets widened their eyes and cried out in shock.
"How is this possible?!"
It wasn't that they hadn't seen people using the church's inherited spells to resist their swords but resisting with their bare body alone was beyond their imagination.
One needed to know that their swords weren't just any common weapons, they were enchanted with flames. Even those fighters who were famous for their powerful bodies wouldn't dare to do such a thing.
However, Kieran did it before their eyes.
This caused the two apprentice knights to be taken aback.
While their opponents were stunned, Kieran wasn't.
Relying on his fire resistance and [Secondary Armored Skin]'s defense, Kieran ignored the sharp swords before him. Kieran exerted strength in his arms and grabbed the two Trainee Knight along with their swords.
Then, like throwing a discus, he threw both of them into the crowd of friars one after another.
The friars of the Ourin Church who were ready to rush up were instantly thrown off their feet.
A straight path to the church's gate appeared before Kieran's eyes.
The three apprentice knights were defeated far more easily than they had imagined.
Other than the gap in strength, it was also because of Kieran's newly acquired skill [Secondary Armored Skin].

…
After glancing over the only fighter that dropped a valuable skill among the three bodyguards of the governor, Kieran strode forward.
The friars of the Ourin Church who weren't hit by the explosion started to charge forward again as Kieran walked closer.
They were different from the opponents that Kieran had faced before.
The friars with faith wouldn't fall just because of the death of their own side.
Their faith made their wills indomitable.
Facing such an opponent, even if Kieran's strength was far superior, it would still be an extremely troublesome matter.
Fortunately, Kieran wasn't alone.
Bang Bang Bang!
Dak Dak Dak Dak!
Amidst the continuous explosions and relentless gunshots, the men from the Church of Danton arrived.
Under the lead of the sister, hundreds and thousands of Church of Danton friars armed with assault rifles and tossed out grenades. The moment they appeared, they slaughtered the Ourin friars who were ready to charge in front of the church.
"Please continue forward. We will protect you from behind!"
Grittel, who was one of the rare ones, shouted at Kieran with a sharp weapon.
Kieran didn't reply, he nodded and dashed up the stairs.
However, just as Kieran was about to push the door open, a loud whistle entered his ears, forcing him back a few meters out of instinct.
A black figure descended from the sky.
