The murder of the leader of the Word of God Sect plummeted the already tense atmosphere in the church to a freezing point. By dusk, all sect leaders, including Pope Carlo, had gathered, each with a grave expression.
"The cause of death has been investigated; the fatal injury is a cutting wound located on the chest."
The report from the high-tier priest struck a heavy blow to everyone's heart, and combined with the circumstances they gathered from the scene, the terrifying atmosphere instantly spread among the crowd.
According to the binders from the Word of God Sect downstairs, no sounds resembling battle emanated from the room. When they sensed something amiss and went to check the attic, Darrant was already murdered. He sat at the table, his expression could only be described as horrifying. When the binder attempted to move Darrant to investigate further, the sight of the severed section terrified him.
"It's an assassin sent by the Empire…"
