Trash of the Count's Family

Chapter 156: Rolling in By the Vine (3)

‘Does the Condemnation of the Sun actually exist?’

That was the crazy priestess Cage’s response. She seemed to be shocked.

That made Cale realize something.

‘It is not an ordinary item.’

Jack started to speak as if he knew what Cale was thinking about.

‘It is a divine item.’ [1]

A divine item.

An item gifted by the god.

The thief that was the owner of the Sound of the Wind ancient power had died while running away with a divine item.

That was how precious they were. The reason that the secret organization Arm was able to kill the strong Blue Wolf tribe was because they had a divine item.

That was why Cale was excited as he asked.

‘Where is the Condemnation of the Sun located? I will retrieve it.’

However, Jack shook his head with a bitter expression.

‘I do not know.’

Jack had only heard about the existence of divine items while being taught by the pope the ways of a Saint. After that, the pope responded to Jack's questions of, ‘Are there divine items?’ with, ‘Divine items? Something like that does not exist.’

The fake Holy Maiden, Hannah, who had been quietly listening to Jack, let out a scoff.

‘The Pope said that it does not exist. That means that it is definitely somewhere. That greedy old man probably hid it somewhere safe.’

Jack said something interesting at that moment.

‘However, the Pope would not have been able to use the divine item even if he knew where it was located.’

‘Why is that?’

‘The Popes have not directly been appointed by the Sun God since the Pope from about 500 years ago. The rest since then were all selected in a meeting by the church’s leaders.’

Hannah put on another smirk.

‘Meeting of leaders my ass. It was more of an ugly fight for power.’

Cale listened to the crazy priestess, the Saint, and the fake Holy Maiden chat for a while before asking Jack a question.

‘What kind of divine item is the Condemnation of the Sun?’

Cale set a goal for this trip after hearing Jack’s response.

He decided to steal it if he got lucky enough to find it.

‘But I don't really have a way to find it.’

There was no way Cale would know the location when neither the Saint nor the Holy Maiden knew about it. That was why he added the part about luck.

Tap.

Cale turned his head toward the hand on his shoulder.

“Let’s go in.”

It was the crown prince.

Cale, the rest of the Roan Kingdom's investigation team, and the Empire’s administrators all responded to Alberu.

Cale, Choi Han, Eruhaben, and the Vice Captain all followed behind Alberu as they headed into the Vatican.

There was still evidence of the explosion in the plaza outside the Vatican.

Part of the Vatican itself was still destroyed from the magic bomb as well.

There was a barricade along the site of the incident along with a large group of people gathered in the plaza just outside the barricade.

“Catch those terrible twins who destroyed the Church and killed our citizens!”

“The Church of the Sun God is disbanded! A church that seeks power is no longer a church!”

Many different voices could be heard.

“Catch and kill those devils who killed the Pope-nim!”

“The Empire does not need the Sun God! The Church of the Sun God that kills people, be gone!”

The Empire had revealed many things about the Church of the Sun God that they had discovered during their terror investigation. As a result, the Vatican was empty because the priests, as well as anybody else that was involved with the Vatican, were all currently under investigation.

‘The Empire is quite an interesting place.’

Cale could tell that the Empire's royal family was letting these people do this on purpose. There were bound to be moles from the crown among those people as well.
