The Villain's Light

"Big brother, we are strong. We will be fine, no need to be agitated" Reif said some words of comfort but... he also can feel a sense of crisis

That Paladin alone already needs him to use his chaos power for him to emerge as the victor. That is just one paladin!

Reif doesn't know how strong that Paladin is against the others. Since that was the case, how can he gauge their strength perfectly

But there is one thing that he knows. If that Paladin is among the weaker or even the average, this is a big problem

How are they supposed to fight such a monstrous organization? Reif can only hope that the Paladin from earlier is already one of the strongest among the bunch

Reif can feel that sense of danger but he didn't show it. This is the perfect time to be the stronger one among the two

Rhash cannot be the only one that is the pillar of mental strength.. It is now Reif's time to do the same

With a soothing hug, Rhash finally calmed down a bit

Reif is right. There is no need to feel fear. In the original time, Reif only wanted to live a peaceful life

However, since the universe is not letting him do that, Reif can only continue to grow his power in order to survive

That happened later down the line but this time, Reif started training seriously much earlier

Not to mention, Rhash is also present. He is willing to be the planner and also another sword of Reif

Yes, things are different right now. They can do this. They can defeat their biggest enemy

"You're right, the only thing we need to do is to get a hold of that shard of brilliance. Without it, that damn Nath Lumine won't reach his peak of power. This is a task that would heavily affect our future, we all need to treat this with more seriousness than all the tasks we had before. Understood? "

Reif nodded his head at that and so was Khaknur. He was afraid that Rhash would lash out at him again if he became too wimpy

He can only thank Reif for helping him. His effort of setting the two was really worth it! Khaknur gained an ally from that deal!

"We need to move faster but also with more care. Khaknur, go around the trolls' den and control as many trolls as you can. It's harder to control them since their souls aren't like your minions but if you can't succeed, just kill them "

Even if Khaknur were to control the trolls, that might only be some time. If that is the case then Rhash would rather have him kill the trolls to lessen their numbers

"Reif, you will have similar tasks with Khaknur. But you will prioritize killing. As for me, I will use half my time to poison their food and the other half to survey whether our enemy is watching us"

Rhash swiftly divided the task that will ensure they can massacre the trolls and obtain the shard while also still having enough strength to fight if ever the church came

His decision-making talent was shown again as he divided the tasks perfectly

"We will be far from each other and this also makes us more vulnerable. If you ever encounter any strange enemies, especially ones that use light magic, create as big of a commotion that you can. One that is big enough for others to notice "

The two nodded their heads and they split into three directions

——

"Y-Your Holiness! My deepest apology, I have failed your trust!"

The bloody Paladin apologizes while kneeling hard on the ground. The being with him was a sacred existence that is the key to revive the Church of Light

He can only be subservient, subservient, and subservient, even if he was one of the strongest Paladin in the current church

"Failed?" The one addressed as His Holiness mumbled while raising his brows a bit

He knew the power of his personal Paladin, he was the cream of the top

After all, he is the most precious existence in the church. He is the Child of God, the one that will revive the obsolete church and dominate the world - Nath Lumine!

The first thing to do to succeed was to gather the three Shards of Brilliance. An artifact that God himself created

By using it, Nath believes that he would be the most powerful existence in this world

Due to his special he was, naturally, his personal Paladin can only be nothing but strong

For the Paladin to end up in this condition, just how strong could the opponent be?

Well, the current church is still terribly weak. It wasn't that surprising that there were people out there that can defeat them

However, this situation ruined Nath's mood as he remembered the Oracle that he had received

An existence that can threaten his current position has appeared. An existence that could prevent his rise from the top ...

This situation is giving him bad feelings but instead of immediately jumping to kill what might possibly be his nemesis, Nath remained cool-headed

"I'll use my Perfect Healing magic on you" Nath announce

Since the shard of brilliance is an artifact from God, as the son of one, Nath naturally can also use the power that the artifacts have albeit it was only to some extent

Nath's skills weren't as good as the artifacts yet. Hence, he cannot use the Perfect Healing magic at all times. He can only use it at very limited times in a certain range of time

It was no wonder that the Paladin was extremely shocked after hearing that news

"Y-Your Holiness! Y-You don't need to do that for me!" The Paladin refuses. Nath can only use that magic a few times. That magic can save the son of God in danger. How could he, a mere Paladin accept it?

"Gastra, you are my personal Paladin and I need your help. If my thoughts are correct, we have to kill someone in this place no matter what the cost"

Nath would not simply use his healing power to heal his Paladin because he want to. He has an ulterior motive!

The words of God cannot be treated lightly. Since God said that Nath's nemesis appeared, he must eliminate that person as soon as possible

Nath wouldn't take any chances to get caught off guard by his enemy

Without minding the Paladin's refusal, Nath still did what he said. The Paladin was soon covered with a brilliant white light

His blood evaporated while his wounds closes at the rate visible to the eye. It was like he wasn't severely injured just moments ago

Reif's hard work was flushed down to the drain thanks to Nath's effort

"Go, spy the troll village. That enemy might have been coveting the shard of brilliance too" Nath ordered as soon as the Paladin was healed

Since they occasionally are in the same place, his enemy might have wanted to also take the shard which Nath cannot let happen

He was the son of God and that shard belongs to God. He can be the only one to wield it in the mortal world. No one else was worthy of it!

"Yes, Your Holiness!" The Paladin fervently answered. He must make sure not to disappoint the son of God again!

For the second time, the Paladin went away to do the mission given to him, leaving Nath alone

"Whoever you are, you can only be killed by me" Nath vowed and he too moved out to search for his enemy

Even though he has a high position in the church, that doesn't make Nath arrogant to the point that he becomes ignorant

Rather, because of his position, he was carrying a lot of expectations. Hence, Nath cannot let himself fail at his mission

If that means he also needs to work hard then he will work hard

Only by doing that can he spread God's existence and make the people worship him again

That is his main purpose. That is the reason for his existence. He was the proof that God is real and the people must worship him

Nath moved very elegantly. He too was running in the woods since it was easier to be spotted if he was in the air yet he still looks pure

It was like he was only moving slowly yet his movements were actually fast and he even still managed to scan his surroundings

Nath's spiritual sense covered a large area, searching for the existence that can threaten his own

Two groups of people spread inside the woods. Both of them have the same objective that they must achieve no matter what

Rhash's group absolutely needs to obtain the shard of brilliance and if possible, kill the son of God

Nath's group on the other hand also has to obtain the shard using any means. And if possible. He would also kill the biggest threat of his life
