After hearing Sigrid's words, Lance glanced down at the cat boss.
The cat boss is also watching him.
One person, one cat, just stared at each other for a long time. At this moment, silence was more powerful than words.
The cat boss is a little unresponsive.
This kid's teachings spread at an outrageous speed in the Southwest Province. It's practically an infection, isn't it!
"Okay, come see me when the task is finished."
Siegfried tapped his fingertips on the armrest, reminding Lance that he could leave.
She harvested a very satisfactory subordinate soldier today, and she's in pretty good spirits.
Even though Ranch's reaction now looks a little dazed and slow, she wouldn't blame her for it.
However.
Lan Qi merely stroked the cat boss, who had become a black statue. He raised his head and gazed at Sigrid.
"Why aren't you moving"
Siegfried lightly pursed his thin lips, his eyes narrowing slightly, as if concealing a hint of displeasure.
"Contact the High Priest Kaine of the Southwest Province."
Lanche remained unmoved by the intimidation of the domineering Catholic. His gaze was as tranquil as still water, staring directly into hers.
「……」
Siegfried sat on the stone-carved bench at the end of the private collection, barely glancing at Lance. His gaze drifted to the side of the room before he gently took out a card.
This semi-transparent card has a delicate silver filigree edging, and in the center is an intricate magical sigil that glows with a faint purple light in the dimness.
The magic of 【Hyper-long Distance Communication】, a sixth rank spell. Lanchi had seen it in Adam's hands when he was at the Ikerthe Academy, helping Adams connect with Lady Julianna.
Sigrid's pale fingers flicked lightly. The card seemed to come alive, drawing an arc through the air across the room before landing with precision on an ancient chest beside it. Unlike the other decorations in the room, this one was a deep bronze color, holding an archaic magical device upon its surface.
This is a magical terminal capable of constructing ultra-long distance communication frameworks. With its aid, it is possible to establish contact and relay messages between nodes established in each province within the Protoss Empire, achieving real-time communication that surpasses the range of any spell.
The instant the card landed, the magical terminal communicator on the counter sprang to life. It began emitting a soft blue light, like stars in the night sky, with a bronze mouthpiece hanging from its side.
Siegfried just kept looking at Lance.
Although she dislikes beating around the bush, when it comes to efficient pursuits, she won't hesitate.
But her patience is not infinite, and if she cannot be satisfied, he should think clearly about the consequences of wasting her time.
She asked the local archbishops in the southwestern province about the vanguard, something that the Vatican had already done. She didn't think Lanci could glean any more crucial information through communication.
This kid is pretty smart. He used the Bishop's communication terminal to have Caine figure out his relationship with the Heavenly Church first, and understand the mission he received as a direct soldier, so that when he went to the southwest province, High Priest Caine wouldn't hinder his work.
If that's all there is to it, she'll be disappointed in this boy, too.
She prefers people who are strong, rather than those who need to act like they have power when they don't.
Lenny held the black kitten as he walked to the cabinet. He picked up the receiver.
Shortly after, a deep voice responded from the other end, that of the headquarters of the Southwest Province Church:
"Lord Supreme, do you have something for me"
The other party's attitude was extremely respectful.
"It's me."
Lanche said softly.
"
That voice...
"
The southwestern province's Grand Inquisitor Caine was startled at first, muttering to himself. The confusion in his eyes was instantly replaced by shock. He took a deep breath, and his heartbeat seemed to quicken as well.
He wanted to say something, but he dared not speak out of turn!
"Pioneer sir Are you with Grand Bishop Tyrant"
Finally, Father Kain exclaimed in surprise and excitement.
"Now I am a partner with the Catholic Church, she is by my side."
After what he had said, Lance held the microphone in only one hand and once again gazed westward toward Sigrid.
Given Sieglinde's physical attributes as an eighth-tier physic profession, she couldn't possibly have not heard these sounds.
By now, Sieglinde had furrowed her brow, comprehending the sudden turn of events.
Although it's absurd...
But also reasonable.
Many things have surprisingly come together.
Immediately, a change came over her gaze as she looked at Lance. It shifted from blank confusion to focused attention.
Siegfried's hand, resting on the arm of the throne, rose and the listening device slipped into her grasp.
"Kane, please don't tell anyone about the Vanguard being mine."
Her voice was still cold and commanding.
But there was no warning in her voice, for she believed in the loyalty of her subordinates.
"Okay, I understand! I will definitely follow the great leadership principles of you and the pioneers, resolutely implementing each one of your instructions and every policy for the development of the church..."
Cardinal Kane responded hastily.
Lance, who was still standing by the cabinet in the distance, was still smiling as he gently stroked the cat boss. It finally came to its senses.
The cat boss listened to the voice of Father Caine from the receiver, feeling that he was already so excited that his words were incoherent. It was a feeling of double happiness and a dream come true.
It feels like something is going to go wrong!
Lanci started with a ridiculously high advantage in the Baitian branch. Now, under the assessment of the Baitian Church, he has shown them what efficiency truly means!
It doesn't want to be famous with Lance in the North Continent!
The Southern Continent's been out there for decades with no one knowing about it, and now that the Northern Continent has just arrived, they're already making a scene everywhere!
After ending the communication, Sigrid let out a helpless sigh.
"I was mistaken. My apologies."
She gently reached out with her hand, and the purple 【Rebirth Certificate - Overlord】 that Lan Chi hadn't yet put away returned to the Overlord's hand, crushed by her.
The cat boss, seeing this, nodded in fear.
It seems the Heavenly Church sees this kid as a pioneer and wants to work with him. No need to keep him under direct command anymore.
After all, direct subordinates have reached the top.
Above that would be the level of Saint and Saintess.
It is a momentous occasion for both the Holy Son and the Holy Daughter to be received by the Cardinal. It bestows upon them great prestige, power second only to that of the Cardinals themselves, and a title equivalent to that of Bishops.
In the southwestern province, the Cat Boss had heard the Resurrection Priest mention it before. The Hegemon Church clearly stated that they would not consider taking in a Holy Son, and if they did, they would only take in a Holy Daughter. Moreover, her compatibility with Lance was too poor. Throughout history, bishops choosing successors would never choose someone who was completely different from themselves and had no potential for cultivation.
However.
Siegfried descended from her throne, wielding the Heavenly Scripture, and imprinted a brand new seal upon it. It blazed with dazzling pink radiance.
The Saint's Testimony - Hegemon of Heaven
Category: Equipment Card
Grade: Pink Holy
Class: 0
This is an effect: The Badge of the Heavenly Son, issued only by the Holy See of Heaven. If the holder kills a Cardinal, it will be upgraded to the Bishop's Seal, unlocking the power of a Bishop and allowing them to create Resurrection Certificates of blue rarity (and lower) for the branch of Heaven.
Note: Holder is Loch MacAssey.
You are the most perfect Overlord Son I have ever seen. I have decided that even if it means changing all my previous rules, I will make you mine.
Sieglinde presented it to Lance without concealing her high regard for it.
