Fa Mo was ready to leave with his suitcase in hand and hat in place when he heard more words from Marquis Heratier.
"By the way, have there been any changes in the Rebirth Church recently?"
"You’re asking me?"
Fa Mo pointed to himself with a smile, questioning.
The Blood Race Astrologer was asking him for intel.
"..."
Marquis Heratier didn’t want to repeat herself, and her expression told Fa Mo she wasn’t joking.
The Prophet from the Northern Continent had already started interfering with her.
The information from both places was delayed and it was hard to determine its authenticity, it kept causing unidentifiable effects on her observation recently.
Understanding as much current gossip as possible could help her recalibrate her next observation.
"There seems to have been a change of Bishops in the northern continent," said Fa Mo after a moment’s consideration.
"Who won?"
Heratier never cared about losers; she was only interested in who the winner was.
"..."
Archbishop of Decay, Fa Mo, shook his head.
According to the vague words of God, they could roughly read out their meanings, but they did not know what their true identities were.
...
Meanwhile, at the same time in the Northern Continent, Protoss Empire.
The glorious lights of the Herram skyscrapers, ancient churches, and different dimension floating roads coexisted. The night sky was not just deep blue. Occasionally, there were golden fireflies that seemed to be reflecting on the mirror-like city.
Sigrid was quietly leaning against a chair in a private museum at the top floor of a skyscraper in the city center, looking out the window.
"Mr. Bishop, I’m going to leave first."
Gloria, who was standing at the door, bowed and requested.
After a while.
"Oh, okay."
Sigrid responded absentmindedly.
"..."
Hearing the Bishop’s lackadaisical response, Gloria was about to say something, but she quietly closed the door and withdrew.
They were indeed busy every day. As the administrative secretary to the Bishop, Gloria was also becoming busy every day.
Being busy was a good thing for them, meaning the Protoss Empire needed them, and the Hegemony Branch was becoming increasingly inseparable from the Protoss Empire.
Not only was their approval rating among the people of the Protoss Empire improving day by day, but many supporters of Rocky McCarthy were also willing to pour their enthusiasm into their Hegemony Branch. More importantly, the Grand Sage Isis chose to trust Sigrid, the Bishop of Hegemony, her comrade in arms.
Even during the battle against Duke Morotian, Isis had somewhat seen through the identities of Sigrid’s three Demon Summons and was willing to help Sigrid release the three who were posing in Herram Prison on Sigrid’s behalf, even after receiving Sigrid’s confession.
However, Gloria knew that Mr. Bishop wasn’t tired from work.
In the museum.
After Gloria closed the door, Sigrid was still sitting in the empty museum, quietly looking out at the night sky.
She didn’t know how long she had been in a daze.
"Right, his Saint’s Testimony is still with me."
Sigrid seemed to remember something.
She had forgotten about it in her recent busyness. Lanci, in the Northern Xue Yuan Province, to use the unique [Certificate of the Saint- Nirvana] disguised as the Saint of Nirvana to cross the blocked station in Hezishan Province, temporarily returned his [Certificate of the Saint-Hegemony] to her for safekeeping, and incorporated it back into her Bishop’s Testimony.
Sigrid hesitated for a while, and then took out her own [Bishop’s Testimony - Domination].
Normally, she would not take out her Bishop’s Testimony.
She was thinking about someone while alone now and wanted to see the things he left behind.
She still remembered when she first met him, and this Bishop’s Testimony had surprised him a little bit.
"Eh?"
Sigrid looked at the Silver Moon Crown in her hand, which was glowing orange, and made a confused sound.
Accordingly, according to the rules of the Desperate Arena, after defeated the Bishop of Nirvana, Asksan, her Bishop’s Testimony would be upgraded to a Bishop’s Testimony with double voting power.
But now for some reason, her Silver Moon Crown shaped Bishop’s Holy Seal has morphed into a shape like a bright sun and moon.
Her own [Certificate of Rebirth-Hegemony] hasn’t changed at all, so why has her [Bishop’s Testimony - Domination] changed?
It was not until Sigrid gently pulled it apart that she realized that this new seal had split into two different ones.
"Wow, no!"
She hurriedly merged the Holy Seals on her left and right hands back together, and the Holy Seals reverted back to their original form.
"Whew..."
Sigrid let out a sigh of relief.
She was scared just now, afraid that she had broken her Bishop’s Testimony with too much force.
Calm down and take a closer look, only to find out that the two seals can be combined like a key and can be separated into two different ones.
So Sigrid separated the Holy Seals again and looked at her left and right hands.
In addition to her original Silver Moon Crown, the other one surprisingly looked like a radiant halo.

[Remarks: Holder: Sigrid Novia.]
"What is Crazy Love Bishop?"
Sigrid looked at the Radiant Halo in confusion, then found she could no longer find Lanci’s [Certificate of the Saint-Hegemony].
She gradually became lost in thought.
"No way, does that mean he’s become a Cardinal Bishop like me?"
Sigrid placed the two Holy Seals in her hand on the table, mumbling in a daze.
It seemed to be because in that Desperate Arena competition, she and the Saint were judged as having defeated Asksan together, eventually leading to the change in her Bishop’s Testimony!
Originally, the Desperate Arena-style single challenge between bishops was completely conflicting with the normal way of killing bishops for promotion, but somehow, because of her and the Saint’s manipulations, it turned into a never-heard-before mistake in recognizing Bishop’s Testimony!
She furrowed her brows in thought.
Although Lanci now does not hold a Bishop’s Testimony, he is indeed a Bishop.
The Southern Continent Kingdom Joint Council has a special ancient artifact that can detect the general trajectory of the Cardinal Bishops of the Rebirth Church, which is why they have been able to guard against the Cardinal Bishops for a long time.
But if Lanci becomes a newly appointed Cardinal Bishop, and he himself doesn’t know it...
People in the Southern Continent will discover that a formidable Bishop has moved to the Hutton Kingdom, Joke-Faced Kingdom Joint Council.
Then, the Rebirth Church and the Church of the Destiny Goddess will break their heads trying to figure out who this Cardinal Bishop is!
But it shouldn’t be a big deal, unless the peaceful South Continent suddenly goes to war, and Lanci runs around, causing all the countries to fail to figure out why a Cardinal Bishop suddenly infiltrated their territory, messing up their plans.
"Uh, I’ll take the opportunity to go to the South Continent sometime and return his Bishop’s Testimony to him."
Although she could use it too, she felt that since they were a pair, one each for each person would be better.
Before that, the Northern Continent Protoss Empire still needs her. She must wait until the alliance with the Aestheland Kingdom is successfully concluded before she can leave.
A round trip to the Southern Continent would take at least two months, and the Protoss Empire can’t afford her absence for so long.
However... a year seems too long. If she could go to the Southern Continent in the middle to see him, that would be acceptable.
It seems that life isn’t that hard anymore.
Sigrid held the two Holy Seals high and looked at the colorful museum through their radiance. The more she looked, the happier she became and a sweet smile spread across her lips.
