Everyone's eyes turned to Shade. He chose not to wait:
"If this were merely an ordinary Sage Level Relic, then of course we would not need to deal with this trouble. That ancient treant is not very powerful in combat, and the Church currently has at least three Thirteenth Ring Warlocks in the city. But it just had to be now, and it just had to be the trees that went wrong. We cannot treat this as a simple relic going out of control."
He looked at Luvia:
"I need to know whether the relic's main body is in the forest or in the city. Although the poisonous mist came from outside the city, the treant serving as the main body may not necessarily still be in the woods."
Luvia nodded:
"No problem. I'll prepare to conduct a divination. But since it is the core of a Sage Level Relic, I cannot directly divine its location, so I need some time."
"Luvia, then I'll leave it to you. Flora, keep waiting here for news from outside the city. Do not go out for now. I'm going to the nearest Nature Church."
"To the Church?"
Flora raised an eyebrow:
"But what identity are you going under?"
"God Summoner. Miss Danist and I will go out together. We'll be back quickly."
Miss Danist was casting a spell on the window at the time. When Shade found her, the eighteen-year-old girl agreed to his plan as well:
"Leaving now? Put this on."
She took a rabbit-shaped pin from her pocket and fastened it to Shade's collar:
"The Sage Level Relic Rabbit Mask. I got quite a few camouflage-type relics from the Academy, in case the Thirteenth Ring Warlocks of the Church notice that something is wrong with my current condition when we meet."
