The defense barrier was opened, and Lette received Kaelster in his shop.

"Your Highness, there’s a reply from the Holy City."

Kaelster respectfully handed over the letter, and after taking it, Lette glanced at it, feeling that most of it was useless nonsense.

Only the latter half of the last page contained anything useful.

"Finally decided to come to me. Why couldn’t these fools just give in earlier?"

Lette snapped his fingers in the air, and the machine in the alchemy workshop that kept spitting out Sea Coins ceased operation.

At the same time, the Hall Master of the Flesh God Sect responsible for this project instantly understood that this meant the Sect Hierarch was terminating the plan, so he waved his hand for his men to withdraw completely.

Actually, the miraculous money-making machine just contained a large chunk of proliferating flesh.

It was merely cloaked under the guise of alchemy creation to maintain its mystery.

But in just these three days, the Flesh Church had amassed unimaginable wealth.

After all, it was equivalent to cutting a large chunk of fat from the Sea Clan, with them willingly coming over, begging to be cut.

As a result, the wealth accumulation of the Flesh Church could be said to have achieved in an instant what the Holy Light Church took centuries to accomplish.

And this Harbor City had once again flourished.

The newly appointed City Lord hadn’t even had time to worry about the poor finances left by the previous City Lord, as the financial issue was effortlessly resolved.

Don’t ask how. Just know there’s a giant sucker from the ocean.

"How’s your development in Sides City? Are they giving you any trouble?"

"Your Highness, the development is indeed not very good. The First Empire’s hostility towards the Holy Light Church isn’t unfounded."

"Oh? So the Red Archbishop wasn’t making things up."

"Yes, Your Highness, but we are still investigating why our Church Court has such a poor reputation in the First Empire.

Apart from the malice from the Imperial Family and nobles, it might also be related to some clergy’s less-than-discreet behavior.

Look..."

Lette waved a hand: "Let professionals handle professional matters. You just focus on development. Don’t worry about these things."

"Your Highness, I understand. I’ll immediately apply to headquarters to have the Judgement Black Knights come over..."

"No!"

Lette pondered for a moment: "The Judgement Black Knights must have come to the First Empire more than once. Given that they found nothing previously, it means these people do a good job on the surface.

Since resistance has developed, blindly increasing the dosage won’t cure the disease, and might even be fatal.

Write a letter back, don’t send it to the Holy City, send it to Holy New City.

Just say to pass on my order to let the Sin Light Sect enter the First Empire."

Kaelster swallowed hard: "Yes, Your Highness, I will do so when I return."

Lette nodded slightly: "Sides City is crucial for us.

Currently, Kedrus Harbor City, due to special circumstances, can only be used to develop the Flesh God Sect.

Having our own cult is more convenient for us.

But we also need a reliable city with an active Holy Light God Church as our stronghold.

Therefore, your activities in Sides City are important and very strategic.

Since that City Lord doesn’t recognize our authority."

Lette reached for a parchment and quill, briskly writing a few large words.

[Why don’t I come over?]

"Take this paper to that City Lord and say I wrote it!

Don’t go through private channels, go official. Through the local Holy Light Cathedral, request a meeting with the City Lord’s Mansion.

For those without many other means, following the correct procedure and procedural justice is very effective."

The Knight Captain nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Your Highness, I understand."

With this note, all problems could be easily resolved.

After discussing work, Lette looked up and down at the Knight Captain: "Not bad, looks like you’re about to break through?

How long have you been stuck at the fifth level?"

Kaelster smiled awkwardly: "Reporting to Your Highness, it’s been about a year."

"Your aptitude ranks among the top of Holy Knights. Beneath the Apprentice Saint Heirs, you should be one of them.

On par with you, Holy Rose Knights’ Deputy Leader Helen is considered one.

That girl is talented.

Oh right, how’s the Holy Rose Knights now?"

"Oh, they? With your order protecting them, no one dares do anything to them. But to be honest, their position is quite awkward now.

They wanted to return to the Holy Knight Order, but were refused claiming the ranks are full.

The Holy New Army here, although it retains their ranks, hasn’t assigned them any tasks.

They’re still living in Holy Rose Manor, and some members have already left.

However, the Deputy Leader Helen you mentioned is still there."

Lette nodded slightly, not surprised by this outcome. After all, their former leader Vanessa is now the notorious new enemy of the Holy Light Church.

Not an easy hot potato for anyone to accept.

"Write a transfer order and bring them over to me. I happen to be short on staff here as well.

Being away from the Holy City is good for them.

If they can achieve some merits, they might be able to wipe clean the stigma.

If they don’t wish to continue, then taking this opportunity to return to the First Empire, those later joined girls can leave the group and go home."

"Your Highness, you plan thoughtfully. Those Holy Roses in the Holy City, they’re uncomfortable, and so are the people in the Holy City.

After all, that incident happened...

I’ll write a letter to transfer them to the Harbor City?"

"Of course to Sides! Didn’t I say so? The Harbor City is now a hotbed for the Flesh God Sect."

"Yes! Your Highness!"

Lette reached out and took out a Light Energy Crystal, then concentrated Holy Light, injecting it into it, and then threw it to the Knight Captain.

"This is a trial, take it back. If you can successfully absorb the Holy Light inside, I believe it will break you through to the Holy Rank.

In the eyes of ordinary people, the Holy Rank is an unattainable peak.

But since you’ve reached this step, you should understand.

Holy Rank is merely stepping through the threshold.

Becoming Holy Rank is just getting an entry ticket to being strong.

Never be complacent, and never be satisfied with it.

The future, there’s a broader world waiting for you."

Kaelster tightly clenched the Holy Light Crystal in his hand, trembling with excitement.

"Your Highness! Rest assured! I will not let your guidance down."

"Remember to prepare a Holy Artifact Embryo for yourself."

"Your Highness, I plan to use my Knight’s Greatsword as my Holy Artifact Embryo!"

"Not bad, true to the style of you Judgement Black Knights."

Kaelster solemnly accepted the crystal and saluted Lette solemnly, then turned to leave.

After he left, Lette picked up the letter from the Sea Clan again and started to laugh.

"The big sucker wants to come ashore. In two days...Better prepare well for a good skinning!"
