"I’m going kill that fucker." Lith’s smile disappeared as soon as the call ended.
He didn’t understand everything, but based on what he knew about Zinya’s situation, it wasn’t hard to guess who the root of Kamila’s problem was. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
’Calm down. Making Kamila’s sister a widow isn’t bound to make her happy, especially if she finds out you are the culprit. She isn’t as morally flexible as you are and she isn’t stupid.
’If what’s-his-face dies, she’ll understand the truth and you’ll lose her.’ Solus said, quenching his anger.
Lith looked out of his window, noticing that the intensity of the snowstorm had decreased enough to allow him to move safely.
’Now that I have a mission, I can’t ask Friya to go against the interests of her client. It would ruin her reputation.’ Lith Warped outside and asked around for directions to reach the main temple of the Church of the Six.
Sorting out its believers from regular people was quite easy. Rangers were known to be mages, so whenever he met the former, they would either shudder in fear or call him names, whereas the latter would warn him.
"Be careful, son. Those nutjobs are a dangerous bunch." Said an old man who was taking advantage of the temporary relief from the snowstorm to stock up groceries.
"They will try to beat the crap out of you at the first opportunity they get. To make matters worse, if you retaliate that idiot Count will hold you responsible for their injuries." He spat on the snow as if Cestor’s name tasted like horseshit.
Unlike most cities of the north, Zantia wasn’t divided into rims, but into two districts. The eastern one, where Lith currently was, was the residential area. The Noble or rich households were the farthest ones from the city gates, whereas the poor people lived in its proximity.
The west district was the commercial area, where one could find shops, hotels, and restaurants. The main Church of the Six was located in an old warehouse near the center of the city.
Lith shapeshifted his clothes into a commoner civilian attire before proceeding any further.
’It would be a good idea to not stir unnecessary trouble. I’ll get in, check out the most notable members of the church, and get out. If not for the Griever and the Count’s support, this would be an open and closed case. Let’s hope things keep being so simple.’ Lith thought.
When Lith reached his destination, his mouth almost fell on the ground from the surprise. The temple was exactly as he expected it, a simple rectangular shaped building made of wood with a sloping roof.
What stunned him for a couple of seconds was the insignia hung above the double doors. It represented a handsome young man with silver hair and seven eyes, arranged exactly like those which appeared on Lith’s face during a world tribulation.
Yet they weren’t yellow, but each one was a different color with the exception of the seventh eye in the middle of the young man’s forehead which was completely white, with no pupil nor iris.
’If it wasn’t for the seventh eye and the pink skin, I’d think the Church of the Six venerates the Balors.’ Solus thought.
"Agreed. The question is: how do they know what an ancient Balor looks like? What does the seventh eye mean?" Lith pondered.
Despite the bad weather, a lot of people were entering the building. Lith waited outside, using Life Vision and mana sense to check on them. He soon noticed they could be sorted into two different kinds of people.
Those who had a really weak mana core and looked really angry, and those who had a normal bright red or yellow one but looked to be in anguish.
’I can’t feel any magical aura coming from the temple. It has no defenses nor arrays.’ Solus pointed out.
