Chapter 656

Before the deacen said another word, the sound of car engines could be heard cutside, indicating that several cars had parked outside the church

Charles slowly stood up from his meditation cashton and clasped his hands together.

“Stay here. I’ll handle this man from Wyvern Peak,” he said to his deacon.

The deacon obediently stepped back

As Charles walked out of the meditation room, he heard footsteps outside. A dozen guards were already stationed outside the room Just then, Adrian, dressed by his battle suit and with a mask covering his free, strode in with Mya and Blade.

Are you the priest of St. Elmer’s Church? Adrian asked as his eyes swept the room.

Charles nodded. “That’s correct. I go by the name of Cassius. What brings you here at this hour of the night, War Degate Draco?”

“I’m locicap for Kayn Cross, Adrian replied.

Charles remained expressionless and his hands clasped together as he said, “There are only two people here at St. Elmer’s Church–me and my deacon. Even if there was a third person, it’d be the church custodian. Hence, this Kayn Crass you’r Joolang for is defanttely not in this church.”

Charles sounded calm as he spoke. Everyone meant nothing to him strice he was the priest of St. Elmer’s Church and the representative of Saint Elmer. However, Adrian did not share that view.

“Father Charles, I checked your records before I came here and know that you re a professor of surts. You should understand why I’m here today,” Adrian said bluntly.

I’m a man of peace and secluded from the outside world. I don’t participate in your wars and battles, which is why I don’t quite understand what you’re saying,” Charles replied, “Also, as the leader of Wyver Peak, you should know that St. Elmer’s Church is a place of peace and should not be disturbed by anyone. In fact, everyone is a mere ant in this place of warship, regardless of their status. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“In addition, this is Saint Elmer’s resting place. The presence of you and your companies are a disturbance,” Chates added, showing his displeasure with Adrian’s action

To Charles, Adrian’s presence was a show of disrespect. However, he was able to twist his words due to how experienced he

What he was trying to say was that Adrian should get down on his knees and pay his respects to Saint Elmer upan

arriving at the church.

Naturally, Adrian understood what Charles meant, and he smiled. “Father Charles you don’t seem to understand. Sent Elmer is one of Wyvern Peak’s generals, and as the leader of Wyver Peak, I’m his superior. Have you ever seen a superior kneel before his employee!

“Although Saint Elmer is your subordinate, he was here long before you and my senior. Thus, shouldn’t it be curamen courtesy for juniors to pay respects to their seniors?”

“Are you trying to force me to keel? Adrian asked.

Charles replied, “I didn’t mean it that way. You’re a superior being with the power in command thousands, so how could 1 possibly ask you to kneel before me? Still, don’t you think it’s only logical for one la disturb the resting place of a saint who greatly contributed to this country, even i try were the emperor?”

After Charles said this, Blade took a step forward and said in a fury, “I’ve had enough of your nonsense, you scoundrell Saint Elmer may be a saint, but Dracu is the emperor. How dare you ask an emperor to kneel before a saint. I’m sure Saint Elize would be cursed for centuries should the legate Imeed before him.

“Are you trying to help him or dig a deeper grave for him?”

Blade frowned as his expression turned sinister.

Charles‘ expression had also turned hideous at this point.
