Chapter 964 - 495: Genuine Sun Universe
Saint Vestia rose and entered Dragon Fire Lake, and at the same time, the Vesta Holy Land, originally located in the Kingdom of Frank, vanished overnight, with the holy temple instead appearing near the King City of Alsace.
Hardly an hour had passed when a letter accusing Saint Vestia of betraying the Kingdom of Frank reached the desk of the Emperor of Frank.
The Emperor of Frank immediately ordered surveillance of all emigrants who had moved from the Oriental Empire, and if any abnormality was discovered, they were to be arrested at once.
Also, he received a battle report from the front lines, learning that the main Frankish Army was ambushed by Alsasians, turning the tide of the battle significantly against their favor.
Louis XI said to Archbishop Lance beside him, "My old friend, you were right, witches are not to be trusted."
"Saint Vestia has betrayed us."
"Jalen, that incompetent fool, also failed to put an end to Dragon Flame Fortress’s attacks on my army. What do you suggest I do?"
Archbishop Lance was the head of the Frankish Church, and at this moment, his loyalty to the Pope was no longer as strong as his loyalty to the Emperor of Frank. National interests had surpassed the universal faith, and he said to the Emperor of Frank, "Frank has conquered many nations, acquiring numerous laws. Our advantage lies in the quantity and quality of those laws. Competing with Alsace, a remote countryside, in magic was unwise to begin with."
"The laws of Alsace are too dominant; we need not clash with them directly. Send out our Anlun Cavalry Legion to infiltrate their paths and wilderness. Under Anlun Law, our Law Knights can absorb the power of other laws, allowing them to avoid being targeted by those laws."
