This thus creates a vicious cycle.
This is also why the Holy Light Church can quickly establish churches and temples worldwide.
But after so many years, it still does not really wield significant power.
An organization primarily composed of humans instead has insufficient political influence in human realms.
It cannot even convert its influence into equitable power.
Its actions are constrained everywhere.
This could very likely lead to a division within the human side of the Church.
However, someone like Alicia, a Saintess, evidently knows that such words are grandiose but indeed somewhat foolish.
She awkwardly explained, "However, Lawrence does have a rather good relationship with the Church."
These words made Lawrence somewhat embarrassed too.
He didn't even have the qualification, so why say this? Moreover, he indeed did not receive much help from the Holy Light Church.
Just borrowing the name of the Holy Light Church gave him a bit of qualification, but now that's gone.
"Then, I want to ask, if other Princes become Kings. If I want to eliminate the cultists without constraints, is it feasible?"
Upon hearing this, the two people opposite shook their heads in unison.
Not to mention when those Princes become Kings, even now, it's not possible.
"Since that's the case, Lawrence, if you were to become King?"
"What?" Lawrence frowned, somewhat confused.
With the intelligence Kana has shown, she should clearly know that Lawrence has already lost qualification.
"I know you want to say that you no longer have qualification."
Lawrence nodded.
"But this so-called qualification, after all, is just some unwritten rule, isn't it?
In name, you are still one of the Princes, with a claim to the throne."
Lawrence nodded.
"Since that's the case, then let's stop pretending, the Night Watchers will assist you in ascending to the throne of the Cohen Kingdom.
I believe the Holy Light Church will also provide help."
Alicia silently nodded her head.
Lawrence furrowed his brows.
Looking at Kana.
"Then what do you want?"
"Very simple, I want the Night Watchers to eliminate all cultists unobstructed."
"Cultists?"
"Yes, those who absolutely believe in the Evil God, the cultists."
Lawrence looked at Kana.
Are your cultists truly cultists, or just named cultists?
"I know your concerns, after all, no matter what, the Night Watchers are considered outsiders.
Whether it's you or Alicia, neither of you know the Night Watchers well."
After saying this, Kana tapped the table twice as if pondering, then said, "In that case, I have one more requirement.
That is, you must swear an oath."
"An oath?"
"That's right, the oath that any Night Watcher must take. It's not to make you a Night Watcher, but to ensure you don't become a traitor, a traitor to the world.
The purpose of the oath is simple: when the world is in ruins, you must stand up, even if it means sacrifice. Also, do not commit any betrayal against the world."
Lawrence wasn't very clear about the details of the oath, nor could he ascertain if there were any hidden issues in what Kana mentioned about the world.
He could only look at Alicia.
Compared to Kana, naturally, he had high trust in the people from the Holy Light Church.
After all, even now, they are still bound together.
Alicia evidently understood much more and nodded.
"I will assist in reviewing the content of the oath at the time, and if it is as Kana said, then there is no harm.
After all, even if the world is truly being destroyed, what good is it not to stand up? Can you survive after the world is destroyed?"
These words were really straightforward.
Lawrence understood and nodded.
However, he did not agree or make a reply, instead looking at Kana.
"Although it's impolite to say this, I must ask, do the Night Watchers have such qualifications?
What gives you the ability to push me to the throne?
As you said, we don't understand the Night Watchers well, and even if we did, I still can't believe you can accomplish anything.
After all, I don't want to ascend the throne by rebellion and slaughter, that's not the result I desire."
This was the only situation Lawrence could think of.
Considering things now, it seems the Night Watchers only have some substantial military strength worth noting.
But ascending the throne by genocide has no meaning.
This goes entirely against Lawrence's beliefs.
Not to mention, it's questionable whether the Night Watchers can really bring him to the throne via military force.
"Of course, the Night Watchers have absolute confidence and capability."
As Kana spoke these words.
Behind her, George, Lurik, and others hesitantly looked around.
They still hadn't figured out how they could accomplish this.
