At this moment, Nathan was standing in front of the dressing mirror, looking at his own reflection with a peculiar expression.
Especially the six wings that were slowly flapping behind him.
His face turned particularly unsightly, he bit his lip and cursed under his breath, “D*mn!”
Just as he had suspected, the blood virus within his body had not been completely eradicated and had relapsed. He still couldn't escape the fate of becoming a vampire.
But he didn't understand.
How is it that the advanced serum can cleanse Sevan's blood virus, yet it can't cleanse the blood virus in my body?
Also, a few days ago, he passed the Pope's test, drinking the Tears of God without invoking any reaction.
Why has the blood virus suddenly flared up today, turning me back into a vampire?
No one could provide him with any answers to his situation.
After a long while, he gradually calmed his emotions, reluctantly accepting the reality that he was still a member of the vampire clan.
He took a good look at his terrifying reflection in the mirror, let out a soft sigh, and then tried to control his body, reining in his aura.
As expected, after he did that, his combat form was also deactivated.
The six wings slowly retreated back into his body.
His facial features and body gradually returned to their normal human appearance.
Knock, knock!
There was a knock at the door, followed immediately by the concerned voice of Colin.
“Mr. Cross, they say you've locked yourself in your office. And Ms. Levy mentioned that you seemed to be in pain when you went in.”
“Are you hurt?”
“Are you okay?”
Click.
Nathan opened the door, appeared before Colin, and calmly said, “I'm fine.”
Colin looked at Nathan in astonishment. He felt that Nathan looked somewhat different from before, but he couldn't pinpoint exactly what had changed.
But seeing that Nathan was alright, he felt relieved.
Nathan asked again, “What's wrong?”
Colin remembered the important matter at hand and hurriedly said, “Deputy Commanders Wolfric and Leopold have a question. They're wondering what to do with the captured Gods?”
Nathan said calmly, “Lock them all up, let one go randomly to relay a message to Divine Realm. This is the fate of those who dare to provoke Earth.”
“We must proceed with caution when dealing with the Curia, we can't afford to startle the snake in the grass.”
Colin said, “Alright then.”
After saying that, he bid farewell and left.
Nathan verbally expressed his reluctance to provoke the Curia at the moment, but after Colin left, he began to ponder deeply.
When is the best time and under what circumstances should we take action against the Curia?
Inside the temple of Divine Realm in outer space.
The hall was packed with Gods who went into an uproar upon learning of Revent's death.
The burly God King Medille was seated on his throne. His voice was akin to a rumbling thunder, and slowly began to resonate.
“I don't know how to describe my feelings at this moment.”
“I'm probably very angry, just barely keeping myself together.”
“I can't even recall the last time we Gods suffered such a heavy loss.”
“Let's discuss this, shall we? Should we launch a full-scale attack on Earth to avenge Gryffen and Revent?”
