Gospel of Blood

High Priest Leonard has been arrested.

On the first day of the evaluation team from the Holy Court entering Borde City, he was arrested. Even though he had prepared for the worst, everything he had prepared was completely meaningless under the complete encirclement of the three Blazing Sun Knights. The teleportation scroll in his arms hadn't even been torn open yet when it was snatched away by the Blazing Sun Judgment Knight, and then his whole body was restrained...

Although both were Third Tier Blazing Sun, the combat power of Judgment Knights was usually far higher than that of clergies like High Priest Leonard.

Not to mention, he was surrounded by three Blazing Sun Knights.

The High Priest felt anxious, calling desperately in his heart for the name of the Evil God, but received no response.

It wasn't until the Judgment Knight rudely chained his hands with anti-magic chains that he finally realized, the Evil God... had not protected him at all.

The High Priest's heart instantly cooled halfway, even though it was a scorching summer day, it felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

"No! Slander! This is slander! Your Excellency of the Evaluation Team! I want to appeal!"

He exclaimed, disheveled.

"Appeal? Your appeal... you can take it to the Sacred Judgment and speak with the Chief Judge of the Crescent Diocese."

The Landis Archbishop said coldly.

Sacred Judgment!

The High Priest's face turned slightly pale.

His expression was dazed, showing despair, and he instantly lost his strength.

Sacred Judgment!

The harshest judgment in the Holy Court!

Only after obtaining concrete evidence would it be carried out, and each time it is carried out, the judgment and sentence will inevitably make the judged party pay a price!

The disasters that the Rose Society had faced in the past, today... had descended upon him alone.

At this moment, the Great High Priest finally realized... he was done for.

...

When the devout followers from Borde went to the cathedral with excitement, ready to attend the grand welcoming event of the Holy Court evaluation team led by the High Priest, what they saw instead was the sight of the disheveled High Priest wearing shackles, being pushed out of the cathedral by the Judgment Knights.

This unexpected scene stunned all the believers.

"What happened?"

"Why was the High Priest arrested?"

The believers discussed one after another, with shocked expressions.

However, soon, the Landis Archbishop and the other two Blazing Sun Knights walked out of the cathedral.

He glanced at the gathering of devout believers around the cathedral and whispered a few words to the priests following him.

The priests following the Landis Archbishop nodded, then came to the square in front of the cathedral and, using the church's amplification array, spread the judgment of the Borde's High Priest throughout every corner of the square.

Assaulting thousands of underage girls, serving as a shield for the Dreaming Salon, colluding with the Blood Demon Cult...

These charges were recited one by one, causing a sensation.

The incomprehension towards the actions of the evaluation team quickly turned into anger towards the fallen priest.

Shock, disappointment, disgust, anger...

The fervent believers began to curse and insult angrily.

"Demon! A demon in human skin!"

"Burn him! Burn this evil fallen one!"

It was unclear who first picked up a stone from the ground and threw it towards the disheveled High Priest, but it quickly incited others to follow.

Stones, rotten food, feces... all sorts of filth came flying from all directions.

The once highly respected High Priest, at this moment, became the object of everyone's scorn.

The Landis Archbishop watched coldly and did not intervene.

The Holy Court despised corrupt priests the most.

And every corrupt priest not only faced the most severe judgment, but all their sins would also be exposed to the public, to be condemned by the world.

Perhaps this self-exposure of evil undermined the authority of the Holy Court, but it was precisely because of the Holy Court's severe punishment that the Church, which had lasted for thousands of years, still stood.

The fervent believers vented their anger on the imprisoned High Priest, and more and more citizens came from all directions to inquire about the commotion.

Watching the scandal was always a pleasure for mortals, and the scandal of clergies was no less than that of nobles.

As more and more citizens came to condemn, the scene became somewhat chaotic.

The Landis Archbishop frowned slightly.

He glanced at the dispirited High Priest sitting on the ground, preparing to end this farce.

But just then, a ragged old woman suddenly rushed out of the crowd.

She crossed the Judgment Knights who maintained order, her eyes red, and rushed towards the High Priest, screaming hoarsely.

"Demon! You damned demon! Give me back my daughter! Give me back my daughter!"

The woman was soon stopped by the knights.

But the chaotic crowd gradually quieted down.

"It's Old Widow Luna..."

"I heard that her three daughters, who depended on each other, were all taken away by the Dreaming Salon..."

"Beasts..."

Watching the weeping woman, the onlookers showed complex expressions.

At the same time, one after another, new elders stood up, crying uncontrollably.

These were the pitiful parents who had lost their daughters to the Blood Demon Cult and the Dreaming Salon for ten or even more years.

For more than a decade of bloody sacrifices, thousands of girls had been killed, and countless families had been destroyed.

Although the nobles who organized the Dreaming Salon were dead, everyone understood that without the protection of the High Priest, this bloody and evil activity... could never have continued to this day.

The organizers of the event deserved to die.

But the umbrella behind the scenes was even more despicable.

Watching the weeping elders, the Landis Archbishop sighed deeply and said.

"Help them up, and then... take Leonard away."

The knights and priests quickly helped the elders up, and the High Priest was also escorted away by the Judgment Knights.

As the ringleader was taken away, the crowd gathered in the square gradually dispersed.

In a corner of the square, Kara, dressed in plain clothes, stood in the shadow of the sidewalk trees, silently looking in the direction of the cathedral.

Beside her, Duke's son Leno wore a complicated expression, showing signs of lamentation.

"I never expected... that the protector of the Dreaming Salon would turn out to be the High Priest!"

"No wonder the Blood Demon Cultists in Borde couldn't be completely eradicated for so many years! It turns out... there was a problem within the Church!"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but look at the expressionless female knight Kara.

"Kara, I just heard them say... it seems that the High Priest was reported, but I don't know who reported him, and how they could investigate it so clearly."

As soon as he finished speaking, several evaluation team Judgment Knights rode over from the distance.

Leading them was the vice-leader officer of the Evaluation Team, the Third Tier Blazing Sun Judgment Knight, who was also the newly appointed Borde's Grand Knight.

He came to Kara's side, showing an appreciative smile, drew a cross with his right hand, and said.

"Praise the Divine! You are the Borde's Demon Hunter Squad leader, Kara, right?"

"Kara, thanks to your report on High Priest Leonard, the Holy Court was able to timely clear this corrupt scourge!"

Ka...Kara reported?

Leno was suddenly stunned.

While the Blazing Sun Knight looked solemn, he sincerely asked.

"Madam Kara, the Chief Judge of the Crescent Diocese highly appreciates you. Are you interested in leaving Borde and joining the Diocese's Judiciary?"
