On a planet that should have been empty, standing alone in the distance, there were now figures gathered.
Believers dressed in emerald-green vestments were praying softly on the planet, which was covered in black lines...
Those black lines depicted... a ritual.
Kumiloni recognized this ritual.
This was... a ritual listed among the Life Church's forbidden scriptures.
"Life Exchange Ritual"

As for Kumiloni's rank as High Priest, in most branches she could assume the leader's authority.
And it wasn't only members of the Life Church.
There were even angels among them, carrying out the ritual alongside the Life Church members.

Whoosh!
Hearing Lu Cang's answer, Kumiloni didn't discuss it further. She immediately rushed toward the nearest planet!
Seeing this, Lu Cang's lips twitched slightly.
Kumiloni...
Wasn't she being a
