The Cardinal narrowed his eyes and was visibly irritated upon confirming that it was indeed a cure potion.

"You two have good foresight to confront the spies personally… About the cure potion, how potent is it?"

Abaddon and Gabriel knew the meaning behind the Cardinal's words.

'It is just as Lady Eli said, the Corrupted Temple is extremely interested in the effects of the cure potion!'

With that in mind, Abaddon stepped forward and answered in a respectful manner,

"The cure potion is quite strong and potent. It caused us to be a little sluggish when using our powers, luckily, the spies only took a small portion with them so it didn't affect us that much."

Cardinal's eyes flashed with interest and surprise but he still did not say anything and looked at Gabriel to hear his evaluation.

"It is as Abaddon said, I admit that this cure potion had an effect on us, but it wasn't a threat if the opponent only brought a small portion.

I do not believe that the main armies of Seirende had lots of supplies to make each of their soldiers carry this as they fight… Besides, the herbs used for this must have been expensive.

But we must still be vigilant when facing the key personnel on their side." Gabriel also said his piece.

The two's words and actions were so convincing that even they themselves thought that they were really genuinely saying true words.

However, they really must convince the Cardinal so as to ensure that he would focus on these things rather than be suspicious of their movements.

"I see… then we really have to speed up the process of preparing everyone! In a minute gather all the captains here and we must prepare to be ready. Let's no longer wait for the Pope to arrive here, let's save time and go to the Vanderford continent right away!"

"Yes, Your Eminence!" Gabriel and Abaddon saluted once again, hearing the Cardinal's orders.

"Good… as for those spies I reckon that you have taken care of them after extracting all of this information?" The cardinal pointed at the notes and the things that Gabriel and Abaddon 'retrieved' from Eli and Kayden.

"Confirming, Your Eminence… and all that is within the bag are their belongings…" Gabriel replied without even stuttering.

"Hmm… you may go." The cardinal waved his hands and sent them to gather the rest of the captains.

Being left behind, the Cardinal's face darkened, and planned to report this information to the Pope.

He examined all of the things that were retrieved from the spies and saw that they were really just normal spies, he saw some random potions for disguise and even some antidotes most probably to prepare if something happened.

Other than the extensive notes informing their discovery inside the temple, there were no other outstanding things in it.

What the cardinal also noticed was that the space pouches had traces of being buried in the ground, as if these pouches were hidden somewhere for safekeeping.

The Cardinal concluded that these spies must have known that they would scan all the space pouches inside the temple and bury the space pouches in a place temporarily.

When they managed to get a chance to sneak out under the disguise of working with the suppliers, they must have dug it and written the notes before they were caught by Abaddon and Gabriel.

Judging from the strokes of the notes and the unfinished words, it must have been so that they were in the middle of writing when they were caught in the act.

"Luckily… Abaddon and Gabriel managed to catch them… if not… we might have been experiencing the Lord's wrath at the moment." Cardinal said to himself as he trembled in nervousness.

He remembered seeing the two in person and he could not believe that he had been fooled by their naive demeanor.

The way they went to him was like they were genuinely just bumpkins wanting to work for some money. He did not even associate the fact that in just less than a week these people had already created a large change in the temple.

What's more hair-raising was that he and the other administrators were even impressed by them, so much that it was they themselves who made them enter the most secret place on the island!

"Today is a great reminder… Sigh…" The Cardinal shook his head and rubbed his aching forehead before he pulled a compartment in his drawer.

He took out a communication stone and immediately contacted the Pope on the other side.

When the Pope noticed his own communication stone, he was surprised.

At this moment, the only ones who could contact him through this were either the Cardinal or the Emperor of the Vanderford Empire, because it would be impossible for the Crown Prince to call him when his status is still unknown to them.

Looking at his communication stone, he thought deeply for a moment. Currently, they are riding a flying beast contracted by one of Vanderford's princes so they can reach the coast in three days.

Weighing the matter down, he eventually decided to talk to the prince and ask if they could pause for a little while so he could answer the call in seclusion.

The Prince immediately understood, although he did not like the idea of stopping, the matters that recently happened are quite chaotic. He is sensible enough to listen to the Pope's request.

Finally landing on a safe spot, the Pope quickly retreated and set up an isolation array. Then he reconnected with the communication stone and answered.

"What's the matter?" He asked the person on the other line, which he deduced as the Cardinal.

"Your holiness… There's a matter I need to report. Please pardon me for disturbing you while you are in the middle of rushing back.

It's just that just now, we have apprehended two spies from the Seirende Empire. If not for the Temple Knight's quick detection and action, the businesses in the underground place might have been revealed."

The cardinal mentally prepared himself to receive the anger of the Pope and so he reported all of the things in one breath.

"What did you say?! Not one, but two spies were able to get past your detection and even went as deep as the underground laboratory. What have you been doing?!" The Pope indeed got angry.

All of the frustration from being unable to advance to the gorge region, being caught in the trap and even receiving a portion of Lord Raven's wrath came out and was all directed to the cardinal.

"Your holiness… it is indeed my incompetence… I deeply apologize… rest assured we have already taken them out and that I also have gathered all the captains so we could go to Vanderford in advance. In that way, we can save time and meet you and the paladin at the earliest time possible."

The cardinal coaxed the angry Pope.

"You better do it! We've wasted so much time! Also, do not be complacent and ensure that there would be no more spies inside! I don't want to hear such things again!"

"Y-yes, your holiness… I will do as you say…" The cardinal obediently replied.

The Pope's anger has not subsided yet, however, there's nothing he could do at the moment.

He could only inform the cardinal that he and the team might reach Vanderford in about a week, and so he expects the troops from the main temple to join the rest of the Vanderford troops by the time they arrive.

On the other hand, Eli and Kayden immediately contacted Prince Nalu and the rest, telling the entire farce that happened after they met.

"This… I did not expect that we would have watched it earlier… My Lady… I am really embarrassed and sorry that I was not able to warn you…" Prince Nalu was quite apprehensive.

Although ultimately the two captains turned out to be allies, the fact that they failed to detect their presence meant that the captains of the temple knights are this strong.

"I am equally embarrassed as well, my Lady… I apologize." Fryzil also said in guilt, sharing the same feelings as Prince Nalu.

"Think about it no more… What's more important is how we are able to work with them for a successful attack in less than two days… Has there been any progress on our end?" Eli smiled but in a second turned serious again.

"It's like this… our colleagues have gone back to the villages to see if they can gather more warriors of their respective races...

As for our elders, they said to wait for their call at any time as they wanted to speak with us directly." Prince Nalu explained.

"I see.." Kayden and Eli nodded, the move to gather more people seemed to be the best way to do it.

Just as when they were about to talk about the plan further, the communication stone on Nalu lit up.

"Speaking of the Elders… it seems that they are now ready to speak with us!" Prince Nalu announced and looked at the rest before answering the call from the headquarters.
