“Vex? How fast...”

“They must’ve manipulated the timing of when they got the holy weapons. We need to contact the three forces of Sez, Aldia, and Hachiton right now so they can send a relief force...”

The three churches sought revival after gaining the holy weapons. The informants became urgent as they looked at the movements of the Rebecca Church after they gained 19 holy weapons.

Vex—they heard that thousands of Rebecca believers gathered in the eastern outskirts of a city far from the imperial capital. The enemy’s gathering speed was much faster than expected. They had no choice but to interpret it as intentional confusion in the information.

The good news was that there were three baronies surrounding Vex. Tens of thousands of rescue troops could be dispatched relatively quickly. However, this was already a war. The situation in each territory was different from usual.

“I can’t communicate with Sez or Aldia. It is presumed that the remnants of the Rebecca Church, who haven’t joined Vex, raided and cut off their magic communications.”

“Hachiton sent their army in the morning. It is meant to suppress the rebellion in the west, but the remnants of the Rebecca Church might’ve dazzled the people...”

The faces of the informants gradually darkened. They belonged to the Overgeared Shadows and they felt resentment toward the vast continent. In the days when the empire was still a kingdom, the territory was small and easy to manage. It was possible to monitor the continent’s major bases at all times due to the availability of manpower. It was no longer possible to properly watch their own territory.

It was the aftermath of absorbing almost all of the large continent. No, if they had to say a cause, it was the Great Human and Demon War. Too many people died during the Great Human and Demon War. In particular, the more talented they were, the more valiantly they went to the frontline and lost their lives. The vacancy of dead people became even larger when combined with the expanded territory.

It was the time when the sober informants couldn’t hide their agitation.

“You don’t have to worry about the Rebecca Church. Let the relief force handle the damage scale and support of Vex, Sez, and Aldia. You focus on tracking the Dominion and Judar Churches.” Lauel came to visit and took command. The cohesion of the Dominion and Judar Church remnants was much weaker than the remnants of the Rebecca Church. There were many loopholes, so spies had been planted.

The informants nodded, but their expressions were dark. The Rebecca Church obtained as many as 19 holy weapons The prime minister judged that they couldn’t be overpowered immediately, so he seemed to be standing by for the time being. However, the reality was different.

“His Majesty has personally departed for Vex.”

“Gasp...”

There was no warp gate in Vex. Among the apostles, it would be difficult for them to get there quickly unless it was Braham, the great magician. In the worst case, a barrier was installed to block magic and even Braham’s movement could be hindered. The informants saw Vex’s independence as a matter that was already decided. They were convinced it would be the base of the new Rebecca Church. The best they could do was hope for fewer casualties.

However, Grid was directly sent.

A being capable of high speed movement comparable to Braham. It wasn’t even magic. It was movement using physical strength and a power. As always, His Majesty would save Vex.

The faces of the unsuspecting informants rapidly brightened. However, the faces of the tacticians stiffened.

“According to the eyewitness accounts, the masters of the holy weapons displayed transcendence. Of course, I don’t doubt his skills, but I’m worried about His Majesty dealing with 19 transcendents alone.”

“Um...” Lauel couldn’t answer hastily.

In fact, Lauel was also worried about this. Grid had rode (?) a dragon during the time they hadn’t seen each other, so he was active and growing... furthermore, Lauel heard he had created a new dragon weapon and armor. It was just that no matter how strong Grid was, there would be limitations.

Grid, who had been steadily building up his transcendence, status, and divinity, had already lifted the limits such as the ‘movement speed limit’ and ‘attack speed limit.’ He had grown beyond the maximum area permitted to the players. It was hard to expect him to have exploded in strength compared to the last time they saw each other.

Dealing with 19 transcendents alone? It never seemed easy when thinking of the power of the holy weapon that Damian handled. Furthermore, all the holy weapons obtained by the three churches plagiarized Grid’s work. Assuming that the unique function of the holy weapon, which granted powerful divinity along with an increase in stats, was added to the effects of Grid’s works... wouldn’t it boost the power so it was closer to Grid’s divine swords?

‘In the worst case scenario, there is a restriction on the knights summoning skill.’

The gods of this world couldn’t be predicted. They were endlessly indifferent and didn’t give any help, but they were powerful at interfering in important matters. Rebecca, who reigned over them, had been silent for so long that it was impossible to read her intentions and she was unpredictable.
