Behind Chanis Gate

As a senior deacon of the Church, Luther had the authority to retrieve Sealed Artifacts from behind Chanis Gate for use.

But he needed a reason.

Because Ince Zangwill had fled with a Grade 0 Sealed Artifact while posing as an Archbishop, causing serious repercussions, the relevant procedures had become somewhat more cumbersome. Of course, Archbishops and senior deacons still held considerable authority. As long as they had a plausible reason, they could enter beyond that door.

After all, people like Ince Zangwill were exceedingly rare.

"Take these."

Luther returned the release order and clipboard to the Nighthawk, keeping the application form for himself.

"...Your Excellency Ishmael?"

The other man asked in confusion.

"Give the release order to the guards and have them release those Vampires... As for their items, I'll retrieve them from behind Chanis Gate."

"Is that really appropriate?"

The Nighthawk was greatly alarmed.

"There's nothing inappropriate about it."

Luther said blandly, "I've been at St. Samuel Cathedral for some time now, yet I've never gone behind Chanis Gate here. I might as well take this chance to see what it looks like inside."

He suddenly felt that he had made a mistake. He had not even looked through the list of Sealed Artifacts in this cathedral. His previous experience of fighting alone had influenced him; he had never considered using such things to deal with the battles ahead.

After saying that, he ignored the baffled Nighthawk and headed underground with the form, following his memories deeper inside.

"Tap, tap."

Luther's footsteps echoed through the underground passage.

Just like the structure beneath Blackthorn Security Company, the Chanis Gate here was a pair of black iron doors. Seven holy emblems were engraved upon them, making them appear cold, heavy, and impossible to move.
