Ale stood behind Berg with his head bowed with a look of shame.
“Now that the Bishop of Berg has arrived, let us begin our meeting.”
Eustaf’s words instantly sank the air in the hall.
The first to speak was Bishop Veloxita, who had gray hair.
“So why did you call a meeting so suddenly?”
His words had a subtle sting in them.
Perhaps it was only natural.
Bishop Veloxita is an experienced priest, but he belongs to an opposing faction to the Pope. Naturally, he was far from Eustaf.
In addition, he was originally second only to the Pope, but was pushed out for the third time when Eustaf became a cardinal at a young age and became the acting Pope.
In any case, it is difficult to get along with Eustaf.
Moreover, now that the Pope is absent. If Eustaf disappears, he could take over the power.
However, Eustaf was not as easy as he wanted, and the balance of power was exquisite.
“You didn’t call us up for nothing, did you?” If that’s the case –”
Bishop Veloxita’s face crumpled, but Eustaf continued without caring.
“The reason why I have gathered here again is because of the ‘disaster.’”
Disaster.
The word stiffened the faces of everyone in the conference room.
“Didn’t you finish talking about the disaster before? The second disaster was four months later, and we’ve already decided how to deal with it.”
The others nodded, saying Berg was right.
Eustaf sighed inwardly as he saw those who had no idea how the situation was going.
If we stayed like this, the credibility of the church would have fallen and the disaster won’t be prevented.
“No, the second disaster is not four months from now. We misinterpreted it. The real disaster is three months from now.”
There was a big stir in the conference room.
“What do you mean three months from now? We are not ignorant about the Cardinal’s power but… It’s already been interpreted, isn’t it?”
The person who spoke this time was the bishop of the papacy.

He wanted to help Eustaf, but he had no choice but to raise questions this time.
Eustaf explained to the bishops with a calm look.
Based on Adelia’s interpretation, he pointed out one by one what they misunderstood.
“Oh, that’s how you interpret it.”
“You are indeed a cardinal,”
“Now that the Pope is absent, I cannot help but feel reassured that the cardinal is working so hard.”
Fortunately, Eustaf’s explanation made most bishops nod.
However, some of the bishops, including Berg and Veloxita, still looked unconvinced.
“That’s why we need to get the troops ready a little earlier. The evacuation order should also be issued sooner.”
“Yes, but that’s not something that can be changed so quickly.”
“So, you mean you’ll let go and put Zephyros on the path of destruction? You didn’t forget the promise, did you?”
The faces of the bishops who objected to Eustaf’s calm voice turned dark.
The “promise” he spoke of refers to the promise made with the countries that helped establish the kingdom when it was built.
The Holy Land will take the lead in defeating disasters more than anyone else.
If the promise is broken due to the dissolution of Vishna, the land of the Holy Kingdom will be returned to its original owner.
“Of course, I remember. But Eustaf’s interpretation is also not certain. If your interpretation is wrong, not only will it be a waste of money, but also the morale of the soldiers will drop.”
“The resentment of those who have left their home because of the evacuation will also be directed at the temple. It will damage the status of our Vishna religion.”
“That makes sense.” Bishop Veloxita’s remarkable speech turned the game around again.
Eustaf felt troubled.
He thought it wouldn’t be easy, but unfortunately, there was no way to prove the legitimacy of the interpretation.
‘The saint said it was not yet time to reveal her existence.’
It was quite a dilemma.
Then the door of the conference room opened roughly and a priest came in.
“Cardinal! We’re in trouble!”
“Priest, calm down for now. What’s wrong?”
Eustaf calmed the priest, whose face turned pale with surprise.
But soon Eustaf’s face soon had a perplexed look.
“An oracle has come down!”
“What do you mean oracle? I didn’t feel anything!”
“…I feel the same way.”
Eustaf also did not feel the oracle come down.
Berg said with a funny look on his face.
“Why don’t we check the oracle first?”
“I suppose so, for there may be something wrong with the stone.”
Eustaf and the bishops immediately headed to the central altar where the holy stone was located.
And the moment they saw the holy stone, they had no choice but to erase the doubts they had for a while.
The energy of the Holy Stone was undeniably Vishna’s.
They knelt before the Holy Stone and expressed their awe at the existence of the goddess.

Eustaf looked up to see the oracle carved in the holy stone.
Then he was once again surprised.
This is because he was able to interpret the letters engraved on the constellation at once.
