Chapter 594
The remains in the Saints’ Cemetery hadn’t been stolen; it was more likely that someone had resurrected them as undead and then vanished with them.
Thanks to Ludwig’s intuition, Ellen understood this crucial piece of information. She confronted the holy knight who was with them.
“Did the Order of the Holy Knights know about this?” she demanded.
His silence spoke volumes.
“You knew.”
Ellen couldn’t scold or reprimand the Order for keeping it a secret, nor could she question why they lied.
The fact that the bodies of those canonized after death might have been turned into undead was already a grave insult and a significant blemish on the Order of the Holy Knights and the Church of the Five Great Gods.
They would not want this truth to be known to anyone, not even to the Hero.
It was bad enough that the remains had been stolen, but the possibility that they had been turned into undead was even more alarming.
“Nothing is certain. It’s just speculation.”
“Right.”
Illeion Volten probably hadn’t wanted Ellen to figure this out, but Ludwig’s unexpected insight had led them to the truth.
