Olivia shared some of Rose's characteristics, causing Bryce's expression to shift significantly.
At the same time, an unavoidable sense of confusion appeared in his eyes.
Olivia knew what Bryce was wondering. She didn't need to wait for him to ask; the magic mirror had already prepared her lines. She only needed to quickly speak the words it provided.
"The incident took place on Annus Street, which is where I live. I noticed a hotel collapse, so I rushed over.
"I discovered the target of Dreamland Paradise, a person who looks like a little girl. She told me her name was Rose and that she was nearly at her limit.
"By the way, there was also someone from the Twilight Council at the scene. He seemed to be an Evolver, and he's already dead."
Why had the topic suddenly shifted to the Twilight Council?
Bryce's expression inevitably changed again.
Before he could ask anything, Olivia continued, "That person from the Twilight Council was named Annie Spoorberg. She possessed the rule-grade forbidden artifact King's Domain and was the primary person in charge of the previous incidents in the South District.
"I only just realized that our church's victory last time involved a bit of luck.
"Because Annie encountered Rose. At that time, although Rose had issues with her memory, she realized Annie was a bad person and suppressed her. That's why Annie couldn't cause any more chaos.
"Rose kept Annie with her until today, when she was hunted as prey by Dreamland Paradise. This caused a mutation in Rose; she instinctively drained Annie's life force, leading to Annie's death.
"Afterward, Rose was captured by Dreamland Paradise and is currently trapped within their Paradise.
"I arrived before that happened. Rose saw me and likely wanted to use the church to help her escape, so she fused an eye into my body, giving me the ability to suppress the King's Domain.
"Yes, she gave me the King's Domain as payment to get the church to help.
"So, I immediately used the King's Domain to come to the church and explain this. I used the teleportation ability of the King's Domain."
As Olivia spoke, she took out the King's Domain to demonstrate.
In a short span of time, Olivia had made the situation clear, only revealing the parts she needed to and keeping the rest to herself.
But the amount of information revealed in such a short time was too impactful for Bryce.
The Administrative Priest felt his head spinning. He never expected to receive such explosive intelligence in the middle of the night.
He understood only one thing: this matter was no longer for him to decide.
As an Administrative Priest, he could handle most administrative affairs, but the scale of this matter was too high. It was beyond his authority.
"Wait here. I'll call for someone."
Bryce hurriedly opened a desk drawer, pulled out a button-like object, and pressed it quickly.
Seeing this, Olivia asked the magic mirror in her heart and immediately learned what it was.
It was a spiritual tool used for alarms. Bryce was using it to notify higher-ranking clergy. Generally, this button was only pressed when one encountered an issue they couldn't handle.
After pressing the button, Bryce breathed a sigh of relief. "Now we just have to wait... By the way, you said you obtained the rule-grade forbidden artifact King's Domain? And you can control it? You can really control it, right?"
Just hearing the term 'rule-grade forbidden artifact' made Bryce's heart skip a beat. Even for him, such a thing was something to be looked up to.
"Yes, it is in my hands." Olivia took out the King's Domain, which looked like a map.
This caused Bryce's eyebrows to jump in surprise. He quickly gestured for Olivia to put the object down.
Then he asked in confusion, "Does this forbidden artifact have a teleportation effect? I've never heard of that before."
He knew about this forbidden artifact. After all, it had been active in the South District not long ago. As an Administrative Priest, he had certainly researched it.
Olivia explained, "The church's understanding of the King's Domain is actually quite detailed, but it's still not fully comprehensive. The teleportation effect was unknown in the past."
"I see..."
Bryce nodded. Just as he was about to ask something else, a dense surge of magic power suddenly radiated within the Administrative Office.
Immediately after, a gate constructed of white light abruptly surfaced and opened. A figure walked through it, their voice arriving before they did.
"What has happened?"
Bryce glanced at Olivia, signaling her to repeat the story.
Olivia immediately explained the situation again. Her speech was very fast; she had finished the explanation before the person had even fully stepped out of the gate.
At that moment, the person had only stuck one foot out.
Upon hearing Olivia's words, that foot was retracted.
"Wait, I'll report this to the higher-ups."
The newly arrived clergyman turned around and went back behind the gate.
This caused Olivia to look at Bryce with a strange expression.
Bryce shrugged. "I can only report to a bishop or a crowned nun at most. But clearly, the scale of what you reported is too high. Even they have to continue reporting upward."
Olivia was speechless.
Bishops and crowned nuns corresponded to the Skywalker class rank. That was the sixth rank, yet they were still mid-level class rank transcendents.
After all, under normal circumstances, it was rare for matters involving high-level class rank transcendents to occur.
It could only be said that Kaliron had been far too restless recently.
This time, the wait was not long.
Another person stepped out from within that gate.
When she saw this person, Olivia's expression changed instantly.
Because she knew the person who had arrived.
It was Julia Elliott, the nun within the church who specialized in researching forbidden artifacts.
The Amber Tears Olivia wore on her finger had been a gift from her.
The nun still looked young, with silver-gray hair and gray eyes. Her face was slightly pale, giving her a delicate, fragile beauty.
She looked at Olivia and gave a slight smile. "I've heard about what you reported. First, let me see the King's Domain."
Olivia didn't dare refuse and handed over the map.
Julia held the King's Domain, and after looking it over for a moment, she determined there were indeed no issues with the forbidden artifact.
She then said to Olivia, "You said you can suppress the King's Domain. Show me."
This was a necessary step. Only by confirming that Olivia truly could suppress the King's Domain could this terrifying forbidden artifact be allowed to remain in her hands.
