As her left pupil emitted a glow, an aura belonging to a powerhouse radiated from Olivia.
The King's Domain, which had just begun to float, immediately fell back to the ground under the intimidation of this aura, leaving Olivia momentarily stunned.
She rubbed her left eye again and looked at the silent, motionless King's Domain lying on the ground. Her expression shifted several times as if she had realized something.
However, she still asked the magic mirror in her heart to confirm the situation.
'Magic mirror, can the eye Rose gave me be used to suppress the King's Domain?'
【Yes. The King's Domain will treat you as a powerhouse similar to Rose and choose to submit to you.】
Olivia's expression became somewhat strange, and her heart felt conflicted.
She took a deep breath, picked up the King's Domain, and examined this rule-grade forbidden artifact seriously.
She never imagined she would be able to use a forbidden artifact of such an incredible caliber.
Not long ago, this artifact could almost only be handled by high-level class rank transcendents. Only powerhouses of that level could suppress its negative effects to ensure their own safety.
Now, through a strange twist of fate, she had become one of those so-called powerhouses.
But the blood-red color in her left eye—wasn't it too obvious?
Even without a mirror, Olivia knew what state she was in and quickly asked the magic mirror for a solution.
'Magic mirror, how can I hide the anomaly in my pupil?'
【The master only needs to visualize retracting the pupil's anomaly, and it will return to its original state.】
Upon hearing this, Olivia immediately tried it, repeating the command in her heart.
As a strange sensation welled up within her, Olivia seemed to "see" herself. Under the night moon, she possessed heterochromatic eyes of gold and red, but the colors were currently shifting.
The red slowly receded, quickly returning to its original amber hue.
Seeing this, Olivia breathed a sigh of relief.
Rose had already vanished from this place; staying any longer would be useless, so she walked out.
However, before she could fully exit the ruins, she sensed others entering.
The barrier that had prevented entry had vanished. The constables who had been waiting outside were now flooding into the ruins.
Seeing Olivia emerge, a constable quickly asked, "Sister, did you find anything?"
"Nothing. Search the ruins for survivors. Make sure to rescue all victims."
"Yes, ma'am!"
The constables began their search through the debris with haste.
Olivia, meanwhile, quickly consulted the magic mirror for a plan of action and soon decided on what to do.
She had to reveal most of the information to the Church.
The Church was currently completely in the dark.
If she hid too much, by the time the Church gathered enough information, it would be too late, and things would truly go wrong for Rose.
And when that happened... she herself would face a grim end.
According to the magic mirror, if Dreamland Paradise completely captured Rose and finished deconstructing her, all memories concerning Rose would no longer be a secret. Under those circumstances, Olivia would be targeted by Dreamland Paradise.
They would be curious and confused. Why was a seemingly ordinary nun able to resist Rose's forgetting influence and remember her existence all along?
The curiosity of the strong toward the weak was often fatal!
From the way Dreamland Paradise handled Rose, it was clear they were not peaceful people. To achieve their goals, they were capable of the most extreme actions.
Whether to help Rose or for self-preservation, Olivia had to make the Church understand the situation with Dreamland Paradise as soon as possible and respond accordingly.
Currently, only the Church could act as a counterweight to Dreamland Paradise!
To this end, she even had to reveal the existence of the King's Domain.
There was no rule stating that clergy members had to hand over forbidden artifacts they acquired by chance. As long as it was confirmed that the artifact would not cause harm, it could become the property of the finder.
Though the caliber of the King's Domain was a bit high, it still followed this rule.
Olivia had confirmed this with the magic mirror. Based on the Church's past behavior, she was certain they would not try to seize it for themselves just because its grade was high.
Olivia naturally trusted the magic mirror's judgment.
Thus, she directly took out the King's Domain.
This rule-grade forbidden artifact possessed eight absurdly powerful effects, and its range could cover the entire South District.
Olivia opened the map, brought the South District under her control, and then selected the location of Daylight Cathedral for teleportation.
In the next instant, she vanished from sight. When she could see her surroundings again, she was standing at the entrance of Daylight Cathedral.
Due to the unique nature of Daylight Cathedral itself, she couldn't teleport directly inside. Even so, such a long-distance leap was still astonishing.
'Magic mirror, it’s up to you now. Tell me what to say to ensure I won’t be suspected, and to make the Church take Dreamland Paradise seriously and choose to intervene.'
【It is my honor to serve the master.】
Indeed, Olivia needed the magic mirror to provide the most precise dialogue to ensure her negotiation with the Church went flawlessly.
She entered the cathedral with hurried steps, arriving at the Administrative Office in a short time.
The Administrative Priest responsible for this week's duties was named Bryce Duncan.
This priest was slightly plump with rounded cheeks, and his eyes were narrowed to the point of nearly closing.
The Administrative Office was very quiet at night. He sat behind a desk with a steaming cup of coffee in front of him, looking exceptionally relaxed.
Seeing Olivia appear with a solemn expression, the Administrative Priest raised an eyebrow and asked in surprise, "Sister Olivia, it is so late. Is there an emergency?"
"Something has happened—a very serious matter."
With just that one sentence, Bryce's eyes narrowed into slits.
Before Bryce could ask further, Olivia quickly spoke. "I have discovered the purpose of Dreamland Paradise. They are coveting a being that is half-human and half-forbidden artifact. The paradise they created exists solely to capture her.
"And tonight, just moments ago, they locked onto their target and completed the capture."
