Liechtenstein Castle, Second Floor, Room 203. 【The most complete and up-to-date chapters are available here, with the most timely error correction. Due to caching reasons, it is recommended to visit the official website using a browser. 】
Lanche seemed to think the environment of Room 202, which had become like an interrogation room, was not suitable. So he had Huberlian move the goddess officer, chair and all, to the brand new Room 203 next door.

The lamps in the room glowed warmly and steadily, casting a golden halo across every inch of space. A deep-colored carpet lay upon the wooden floor, offering a haven from the wind on this chilly autumn mountainside at dawn.
Huaiberlian had removed the shackles from the Goddess Official's mouth and unchained a portion of her bonds, allowing her to sit comfortably in the chair. He also gave her a blanket.
The Goddess official had gone from hell to heaven in just a few minutes, her expression somewhat dazed. The only thing that seemed heavier was the look of reliance she cast upon Lance.
And across from her, were still seated Lance and Huberlian.
"Let me give you a brief introduction. I deactivated the [Shadow World Record Program] long ago, so the Revival Church won't know that I got any information from you. As for what will happen to you after the Shadow World ends and you are imprisoned by the Kryze Empire, I will do my best to have Princess Alexia protect you and ensure you avoid interrogation in prison and live a little better."
Lance stared at the notebook in his hand and began to write on it, saying at the same time.
After the Shadow Realm ends, all challengers will return to the void portal where they entered the Shadow Realm.
This time, the challengers entered the Shadow World through a large-scale Void Gate controlled by the South Continent Shadow World Management Association, rather than those temporary "unstable Void Gates" that appear in the wild.
So, the goddess official whose identity as a Resurrectionist has been exposed will be immediately arrested by the heavy troops of the Crey Empire upon leaving the Shadow World.
The Goddess Officer nodded solemnly at his words.
Since she no longer had to see Lance as an enemy, she felt a sense of security filling her heart.
Since she hadn't openly betrayed the Resurrection Church, her life in the Kreiss Empire's prison wasn't as terrifying. Even behind bars, the Resurrection Church would try every means to retaliate against traitors and execute them.
Now, even if she knew she would go to jail, she still had hope.
Then came Etch, this horrible man, into the ranks of the Revivalist Church.
When he arrived in the Kree Empire, he may have already held a position of power within the church that was beyond her comprehension.
She believed that Lanche was certainly capable of rescuing her and protecting her from the threats of the Resurrection Church!
"My name is Stisella, a northerner from the Kryll Empire. I grew up in an orphanage on the outskirts of Granweverly City, the main city on the northern border. After my village was destroyed by Bishop Ivannos, I was spared because I still had potential. Five years later, after being raised by the Revival Church's branch that destroyed the bishop's faction, I emerged from the dead and became a partner to help the Destroyer Saint infiltrate the high ranks of the Kryll Empire."
The goddess spoke quickly.
Lan Qi listened to the goddess's story without interrupting and didn't ask questions halfway through.
It is rumored that the Annihilator Bishop, even among all the Cardinals, was the most ruthless killer of innocents. To him, mass slaughter of the poor was as easy as crushing an anthill.
Even Ivannos often enjoyed doing things that defied "logic" - without any reason, he would ruthlessly burn all the commoners who had been chatting pleasantly with him. His notoriety even surpassed that of Asksahn, the Obliterator Bishop of the Northern Continent.
"Do we want to infiltrate the Ruinous Cardinal's ranks"
Lanrick gestured to himself and Huberliane, then asked the goddess Stissela.
The ten branches of the Resurrection Church are each under the jurisdiction of one cardinal. For example, the last wanted cultist encountered at the Purgatory Hallway Academy, Lilith, was a follower of the Rotting Cardinal, while this time, the Destruction Saint Adeline and the Goddess Stissira encountered are both followers of the Destruction Cardinal.
Although they are both members of the Resurrectionist sect, they serve under different bishops and have distinct operational styles.
Sometimes, even civil war may break out among the faithful when relations between some bishops are not very good.
After the end of this world of shadows, Lance's goal for the winter vacation after returning to the real world was to go to the North Continent to ask the holder of the [Primal Tablet - Sealing], the Ascended Bishop Askassan, to complete the task report of "Seeking Out the Stone Tablet Holders."
If you can sneak into the Destruction Bishop's branch first and go directly to the Annihilation Bishop's branch in North Continent, it will save a lot of steps and trouble!
It's difficult, for young people with a little fame like you, the Revival Church will be extra wary. So I suggest you capture a Revival Church member and replace their identity.
Sestila replied.
Huberley was already a red-named figure on the Revivalist Church's hit list.
And with this battle, while Lanchier's victory brought about the downfall and destruction of the Holy Maiden, his war record alone was enough to make him infamous, comparable to Huberlian.
But you should know that finding a Reanimator in Heston Kingdom is difficult... unless you here, can give me some key information.
Rance listened to Stesila's answer, calmly looking at her.
First, the kingdom of Hulton was a major stronghold of the Church of Fate, and had carried out many actions to purge its followers.
The Kingdom of Heston is also one of the countries in Southern Continent that strikes hardest against cults.
Now, even within the Hetton Kingdom, followers of the Revivalist faith are most likely elite infiltrators like the Ruinous Saint Adelaide or the Goddess Officer Stisseira, with impeccable cover identities, making them incredibly difficult to apprehend.
If the opportunity arises, a very dangerous individual will arrive in Ectheles within the next two days from the Kingdom of Alora. If this time the Shadow Realm failed to encounter or kill Miss Hyberlian, Duchess, he will do everything in his power to create an accident in the schoolyard to kill the Duchess.
Stilesse stared intently at Huberly for a moment, then spoke with grave seriousness.
"...."
Hubberley's heart raced despite her impassive expression when she heard this.
She never expected the Resurrection Church to be so determined in their hunt for her this time!
It seems there is someone who must make her die.
The original fear and melancholy that had gradually dissipated due to Lanchi's presence once again began to cloud Huberley's mind.
She also gradually came to realize that she might never have peace until she became stronger.
Previously, whenever I was without Lan Qi around, it was a hopeless situation that even the gods couldn't save me from.
Although it seems like Ranch has resolved things calmly, if the intensity keeps increasing, even Ranch might be killed by her!
She gradually lowered her head, her eyes dimming.
She always brings disaster upon herself and drags Randy into it to take the fall.
The more Lan Qi shielded her without blame and treated her as a best friend, protecting her unconditionally, the deeper her guilt became.
She is just a pure burden.
