Afterwards, Dorothy controlled the corpse of Brandt's beast and continued to flee with the accused Vaughn while waiting for the situation in the church district to be resolved. At this time, Vanya, the highest person in charge of the Pritt Diocese, began to coordinate the pursuit mission for the church armed forces that retreated to the vicinity of the church district as the acting archbishop. She guided them to specific locations for pursuit on the grounds of the cathedral's prosecutorial ability, and asked them to capture them alive as much as possible as their spiritual power was almost exhausted.
Then, the church armed forces that had been driven out of the church area immediately took action and rushed to the mission site to find and beat Brand and Vaughn who were still "escaping". Since both of them were under Dorothy's control, she wanted to capture and fight to death among the two desperate werewolves? Or who was exhausted and captured? Both were possible.
After Vaughn was arrested, Dorothy only needed Vanya to find an opportunity to meet Vaughn, and then she could use the spiritual thread to activate her ability based on Vanya, and perform another personality modification on Vaughn, tampering with his memory, and shaping a loyal personality for him, waiting for the interrogation from Saint Mountain. The investigation team of Saint Mountain will get the "truth" that Dorothy wants them to know from Vaughn, and this "truth" comes from Vaughn's actual memory, and it is absolutely from his heart.
Because of Vanya, the acting archbishop who holds the highest authority of the Cathedral of the Holy Song and the highest power of the Pritt Diocese, Dorothy's subsequent cleaning of the battlefield and aftermath matters were much easier and more convenient. No matter where she wanted to deal with any traces, she could ensure that she could do it safely without anyone noticing. What's more, the commander-in-chief of the church is one of their own, and the entire church area and its surroundings are under his surveillance. There is nothing she can't do well.
During the attack on the Chant Church, many unexpected factors occurred that Dorothy had not anticipated beforehand, but fortunately Dorothy herself was also a witch and had strong enough abilities to deal with various emergencies. Although she managed to cope with all the situations in the end, Dorothy also paid a heavy price in spiritual expenditure.
In this activity, Dorothy's main spiritual consumption is to create the Night Demon's body. The Night Demon's body created by coordinating the entire Tivian's body has super speed and agility, and its cost is not low. Fortunately, the summoning of the body can be carried out through rituals, and the consumption can be reduced by arranging rituals.
Although Dorothy could not find a high-standard "Shadow" temple in the whole of Tivian, fortunately she had not returned the Phantom Scale Incense Cage to the little foxes. Dorothy took the time to draw a simple ritual field on the ground that was not even at the niche level. Combined with the core of the divinely blessed object level, the consumption of the anecdote body was reduced a lot. Dorothy only spent 5 points of "Shadow" and 2 points of "Cup" to summon the Night Demon Anecdote Body. If there was no ritual assistance, the consumption would be much higher.
In addition to the consumption of summoning the Night Demon, the most notable consumption of Dorothy was the living puppets and a bunch of beastmen. With the support of spiritual mastery, Dorothy did not consume much spiritual power when manipulating the living puppets. It was mainly due to some loss when condensing the materialized spiritual thread, which consumed 2 points of "cup". And several personality tamperings on Vaughn consumed 1 point of "shadow", which was not too much.
In summary, Dorothy's action this time consumed 6 "shadows" and 4 "cups". Overall, Dorothy's current spiritual condition is as follows.
4 cups, 4 stones, 8 shadows, 8 lights, 11 silence, 8 enlightenment.
Although Dorothy's spiritual expenditure was not high after the whole operation, because Dorothy's spirituality was not high to begin with, her current spiritual condition was still not good, with a lot of single-digit numbers.
Fortunately, in this action, Dorothy not only helped Vanya to protect her position in the church, but also gained a lot of extra benefits.
Since she had Vanya, the acting archbishop, to provide cover, when Dorothy was cleaning up the battlefield, she would naturally visit the severely damaged underground forbidden library and search for treasures from the ruins.
Knowing that Vanya's position as archbishop was only acting and would soon be replaced by a new official archbishop from other factions in Mount Saint, Dorothy was very cautious after Vanya officially took office. She did not let Vanya use her position to open the door of the forbidden library for her to read, so as to avoid leaving any abnormal traces in personnel that would be noticed by the archbishop who came later.
But the current situation is different. Duval personally and violently opened the door of the forbidden library for Dorothy and made a mess inside. Now if Dorothy goes shopping inside again, any problems that arise later can all be pushed onto the Wolfblood Society in one go. There is no risk at all. It is simply perfect.
While dealing with the traces of orcs in front of the scripture building, Dorothy also sent the corpse doll into the messy forbidden library and pulled out secret books from the ruins. Due to time constraints, Dorothy only pulled out the secret books whose outer shells were shattered by Duval and scattered on the surface of the ruins. She quickly read them and put them away. Therefore, the number of secret books she read in the end was not too many, only about ten.
Most of these secret books were of little nutritional value, such as poems praising various alien gods, and works created by mortal writers and artists who were tortured to madness by poison. Although they could provide spirituality, they were not of great significance to Dorothy's study of the secrets. There were only four secret books that Dorothy thought had some value after reading them.
The first secret book, titled "Thirst for Faith", was written by a nun of the Radiant Church in ancient times, named Yunina. She was a devout... even fanatical believer in the Virgin Mary. In this secret book, she recorded all her thoughts and practices on the Virgin Mary's teachings, covering all stages of her life. Dorothy could see that she was loyal to the Virgin Mary and made the Virgin Mary everything in her inner faith.
Yunina implements all the teachings of the Virgin Mary in her life, adheres to strict living habits, is kind and generous, friendly, helps the poor, and has few desires... She is slightly similar to Vanya, but even more strict and radical. She is completely loyal to the Virgin Mary, but more fanatical and radical.
Dorothy can see from the secret book that Sister Yunina seems to have been promoted all the way because of her extraordinary talent. Although there is no clear explanation, Dorothy can judge from the tone of voice and the way she addresses others in Yunina's writing in the secret book that her position in the church is getting higher and higher. During the promotion process, her heart was not tainted by the power desire within the church. Instead, she was always fighting against the dark side of the church and the unbelievers. Even if she was attacked and framed, she was not discouraged. Her personality seemed to be very noble.
If you only read the first part, this secret biography seems to be just an autobiographical record of a loyal and noble believer, but the content of the secret biography at the end is a bit problematic. In the latter part of the secret biography, Yunina's faith and enthusiasm for the Virgin Mary grew to an extreme level. She gradually became dissatisfied with practicing the Virgin Mary's teachings in this world. She began to yearn to hear the Virgin Mary's voice with her own ears, communicate with her directly, and listen to God's will. However, this idea is indeed a serious sin in the church. Once it is revealed, it will be punished with the most cruel punishment.
Under the rules of the church, Yunina dared not express her thoughts, but the desire to listen to the Virgin Mary's wishes in person had taken root in her heart and became stronger. Under the torment of this idea, her mentality gradually changed.
"Lord... merciful Lord... I have served you for many years, carried out your will with all my heart and soul, and have made countless achievements. Don't these deserve your words to me?
"The Holy See has been in office for decades since the founding of the Holy Church, enjoying the grace of the Three Saints alone, and has never changed... The Holy See has made great contributions throughout the ages, so it is naturally worthy of this honor, but what about the other hundreds of millions of believers? There are many people in the world who are sincere and faithful to the Lord. Is it possible that our whole-life practice is not even a fraction of the Holy See's contributions? Why have you never paid attention to us...
"Lord... All-good Lord... I long to hear your holy voice, even if it is a heinous crime. From now on, I will do everything to get close to you and look upon you, even if I become a sinner and there is no redemption.
"Listening to the Holy Will will be my only goal for the rest of my life. Now, I will start by working hard to sit in the position closest to you in the world outside the Holy Throne, and obtain the name of Saint Amanda..."
