So I'm a sheep.

"Yes, sir!"

"..."

"........."

"Minister Chris, I've come to you to ask about the situation."

Before setting off for that silver world, Sasha made a special trip to visit the archangel Chris.

"Lieutenant Saliye"

Chris greeted Sasha with a smile, her attitude clearly very friendly.

“Lieutenant Sally, because that world was originally Melody’s responsibility, and I only temporarily took over her work for a short time, I only know the general outline of many things.”

"Just tell me the general situation, thank you."

"it is good"

Chris pondered for a moment and said, "The arcane mages of that silver world possess the most powerful abilities; they are the foundation of the Arcane Emperor's rule."

"Arcanists require a high level of talent. Only those with exceptional talent can become arcane mages. Those with good talent can develop into magic-based professions such as barrier masters or summoners, while those with average talent can only become warriors."

"Minister Chris, how powerful is the most powerful arcane mage?" Sasha asked the question she was most concerned about.

"According to the Church's intelligence, the most powerful arcanist in the world right now is—Clark Gaunt."

"His power is comparable to that of the Archangel."

..................................................

The Archangel...

'That's impressive, but considering he's at the pinnacle of the Four Feathers World, this level of strength isn't too exaggerated.'

"Minister Chris, I saw in the report that the emperor of the Arcane Empire is also named Clark Gaunt. Are they the same person?"

“Indeed, Lieutenant Saliye, the Arcane Empire has ruled the surface for over a thousand years, and every emperor has been the strongest among arcane mages.”

"The title 'Arcane Emperor' is not only a reflection of status, but also a symbol of power."

"Krak is the seventh Arcane Emperor, and his reign is the longest of all Arcane Emperors, lasting more than three hundred years."

"Minister Chris, you just said that the Arcane Empire has ruled the surface for over a thousand years."

Sasha emphasized the word 'surface' slightly and asked curiously, 'Is there some independent force underground?'

“That’s right, Lieutenant Sally…”

"Saliye"

The young girl interrupted Chris with a smile: "It's not like we're in front of a superior. In private, we address each other by our titles, so there's no need to use those formal titles, is there?"

"That's fine too."

Chris nodded happily and continued, "The underground world is full of all kinds of monsters, and these monsters, led by the city lords, will break into large-scale conflicts with the Arcane Empire every now and then."

"City Lord?"

"Yes, powerful monster races have built cities underground, and the city lords are their rulers."

"A monster capable of building cities!"

The little girl asked thoughtfully, "They seem to be quite intelligent. Can they communicate?"

"I'm not sure about that," Chris said, somewhat embarrassed.

"Haha, my bad, my bad, I asked such a strange question."

Sasha naturally changed the subject: "Chris, you already have your own work to do, and now you have the added role of temporary commander. Are you still able to manage?"

"I'm so busy, I'm completely overwhelmed."

"But since it's an order from my superior, I can only grit my teeth and bear it."

After a pleasant conversation with Chris, Sasa officially set off.

..................................................

"Lady Saliye, it is a great honor that you have come in person."

As soon as I stepped out of the teleportation array, an old man with a white beard came up to me and asked me what was wrong.

"Pope Alex?"

"Yes, sir, I am Alex."

The old man said very solicitously, "The church has prepared a grand welcome party for you, as you see..."

"Since it's everyone's kind gesture, I certainly can't let them down."

The little girl was quite friendly and approachable, without putting people at a distance.

"The devout bishops and the esteemed gentlemen residing in the church have been waiting for a long time, sir, please follow me!"

Seeing the old man's beard trembling with excitement, Sasha felt a little puzzled.

'There are quite a few archangels stationed in the church. Although I have an extra pair of wings compared to them, there's no need to get so excited.'

"Lady Saliye, everyone is so excited to hear that you have come in person."

"Haha, I'm just an ordinary archangel, that's an exaggeration, that's an exaggeration."

"No, no, no, Lady Sariel, you are anything but ordinary. You are a miracle angel personally named by our Lord!"

"It is truly a blessing from our Lord to be able to see your true face today!"

"Oh, do you know about me?"

"Your Excellencies often speak of your glorious deeds."

"Haha, I see. I'm so embarrassed."

Sasha felt quite embarrassed to be being looked at with such reverence by an old man.

"..."

"Lady Saliye, it is a great honor to serve you this time!"

"The commander-in-chief suddenly stepped down, and everyone was very uneasy. With you here, everything will definitely be fine."

"I have long admired your name!"

A group of archangels surrounded the little girl, leaving all the bishops outside, unable to get a word in edgewise.

Everyone trusts me a lot...

Looking at the archangels around her, whose eyes were full of longing, Sasha was filled with emotion.

After joining Starlight, the girl usually interacted with either Evelyn or the various ministers and commanders.

She never knew she held such prestige among the archangels!

'After Melody said that the chosen one was using my name, neither the Church nor the archangels dared to intervene.'

'I initially thought this was nonsense; she must have pressured the church and archangels behind the scenes to do this.'

'Now it seems...'

'Perhaps she wasn't lying about this?'

Volume 1: Chapter 254 The Arcane Emperor

Through her interactions with the angels, Sasha gained a more intuitive understanding of the Truth Cult.

Yes, that's right. The goddess church in this world is called the 'Truth Church'.

It sounds like a cult, but it is indeed a legitimate goddess church.

Before the establishment of the Truth Cult, the status of warriors in this world was extremely low.

They are servants of ordinary magic users and slaves of arcane mages.

Whenever the Empire goes to war with the dungeon lords, countless warriors are the cannon fodder charging ahead.

Sometimes, when the arcanists were in a good mood, they would even kill warriors and monsters at the same time, which was a common occurrence.

The first archangels to descend upon this world to preach felt deep sympathy for the warriors' plight.

"It is only natural for the strong to occupy high positions, but they are too cruel to their own compatriots."

"The warrior class is not without potential, but unfortunately the arcane mages have suppressed it too much, blocking all their paths forward."

"The Arcane Emperor harbors great hostility towards us. If it weren't for his fear of the power behind us, he would have attacked us long ago."

"Using arcane mages as the entry point into this world seems unrealistic to me."

"Then let's choose the warrior."

"Seconded"

"Give them strength"

"Let soldiers live with dignity!"

The archangels quickly reached an agreement, formally establishing the Church of Truth and using their merits to exchange for several powerful warrior advancement paths from the legion.

While training the church's guardian knights, they also freely imparted the knowledge they obtained to the suffering warriors.

The Church of Truth quickly gained the sincere support of countless warriors, but at the same time, the actions of the angels thoroughly enraged the fourth Arcane Emperor.

Just as Emperor Arcane was preparing to take drastic action against the Church of Truth, the Archangel Melody descended upon the capital and engaged in 'friendly' negotiations with the emperor.

In the end, both the angels and the arcane empire backed down.

The angels pledged not to spread 'forbidden knowledge' to warriors outside the Church, while the Arcane Emperor recognized the Truth Society as the orthodox religion and allowed the angels to freely preach within the Empire.

...................................................................

“Alex, I already asked the archangels about the history of the church at the welcoming ceremony.”

"Now, let me, the Pope, tell you the current situation of the Church of Truth."

"I am deeply honored!"

The old man calmed himself down and said, "The Church enjoys a high prestige among the large number of warriors. In the past hundred years, we have also developed many goddess believers among ordinary magic practitioners."
