Chapter 596
There was no need to rush.
The enemy was an unknown force capable of launching an attack on the temple of the leader of the Inquisition and massacring all within.
Whether they were mages, demon god cultists, or some other group was still unclear. What mattered was that they wouldn’t leave their pursuers alone, and there was a strong chance they would target both the hero of humanity and the princess of the Schwartz royal family.
But while the temple of the Inquisition, disguised as a declining temple of Ouen, might not be safe, the Temple itself was certainly secure.
Still, it wasn’t wise to provoke them by acting hastily. Ellen decided to wait at the Royal Class dormitory, hoping to gather some clues from Anna de Gerna.
The internal issues between the Order of the Holy Knights and the Church of the Five Great Gods also needed careful consideration. For the moment, she chose to wait and observe the situation.
Ludwig was in the Class B dormitory, while Ellen, Louise, and Heinrich were in the Class A dormitory. It was snowing, and they needed to gather their thoughts.
Heinrich, who did not possess the physical prowess of a superhuman, was resting in his room, exhausted from being out all day.
Louise was sitting on the sofa in the lobby, lost in thought, when she noticed Ellen, fresh from a shower and with a towel around her neck, walking down the hallway and looking around.
“Is something wrong?” Louise asked.
“Ah...” Ellen paused, tilting her head as she looked at Louise. “Have you seen the cat?”
“Hmm...? No, I haven’t. Has it gone missing?”
