I created my own system

Chapter 73 Down to the last temple



Inside a temple which none of the eleven archbishops are allowed to occupy. The temple of Galahan is the meeting place of all archbishops. However, instead of a peaceful meeting they usually have, a rough tension could be felt.

"So what should we first tackle?"

The archbishop of the first temple said.

"May I speak about an alarming issue right now?" the second Archbishop volunteered while raising his hand.

"Go on we will hear you out"

"I believe it is time we put our differences aside and join forces to reach the goal we all wanted to achieve. Our holy objective is to free our lord Nirvana from the treacherous seal made by the five blessed children"

"Doing that means disobeying the order our lord has previously given to us, Dos"

The third archbishop commended but the fourth had a different opinion.

"How can we be sure that the vision was real? What if it is just a pigmentation of some wild imagination that priests have"

"BAM!"

Someone suddenly slams the long table they are currently on.

"Those words are an insult to us!" the archbishop of the tenth temple said, not liking how the fourth archbishop doubted their words.

"I just find it suspicious, out of all the priests from each temple, why is it your temple that receives the oracle"

"I see where this is going, you aren't just doubting us, you are even jealous! You didn't like that our humble temple was chosen to be guided by our great lord!"

"Nonsense! I don't feel anything like that! I just wanted to tell you that we should be more observant!"

"Cuatro, if I am not mistaken you sneakily sent your people while my demonic beast army was attacking the city!"

The seven archbishop accused the fourth, creating a more chaotic scene.

"Enough!" a cold and emotionless voice pierces through the shouting people.

"I believe we aren't making any sense here" The first began to speak making all of those present focused on him.

"It doesn't matter which temple received the oracle, what matters is we achieve what we need to do. The holy task was already received and we servants only need to follow"

His calm yet cold voice made the atmosphere smooth, removing the agitating words that made the conversation cold.

"Let us compete in this race without accusing others. I am sure the great Nirvana will be pleased if we do that"

All the remaining archbishops look at the first. They all tried to contemplate his words until they came to an agreement.

"Alright I suppose that was correct"

"I agree let us leave all these conspiracy theories and focus on the matter at hand"

"Yes I want to apologize for my words"

"So? What now?"

"That is simple Otso, we plan who will attack next"

The ninth archbishop said sounding carefree.

"To make sure the attacks don't overlap with each other, let us decide through a lottery the order on who will attack"

"Agreed"

"Let's do that"

The meeting ended after some stumbles and an agreement was established, although it was something Apollo didn't anticipate.

.....

Apollo's Pov

Aside from training, I didn't neglect the files I copied from the tenth temple.

"Hmm..."

[It seems we still didn't get the entire data]

I sat down looking at every file I got but the thing I wanted to see wasn't in there.

"At least I got the location of the other temples, though it was only the other six remaining temples"

However it wasn't really that bad aside from the locations, the archbishop has a list of people in every temple that need to be monitored. It turns out the six temples that were listed, are actually the temples the archbishop thinks to be the strongest. So from the six, he monitored the people there to see if they made any movements that would hinder his plans.

[The rift you created, made the archbishops wary of each other]

"Isn't it good? At least I got more info....look even the spells they specialize in were well listed"

Suddenly something hit me.

How did he acquire such information?

I closed my eyes and a smirk unknowingly formed.

They are planting spies on each other sides. It seems like the rift I made is more effective than I thought.

While fixing the files I made my thoughts caught on something.

"Hmm?..that is interesting"

Sergio's thoughts and memories finally came to me.

[Sorry it took quite some time to sort out their thoughts]

"It's fine since we are still on the schedule"

I looked through Sergio's memories and thought about the unexpected outcome.

"So the one to attack next...is the Ninth temple"

I began to think, after this, the second temple will come then the third and so on.

"I felt like they are turning this into a game"

[Isn't that what you are hoping for? As long as they aren't taking the situation seriously they won't be able to see what is truly happening]

"This makes me wonder what attack they would do"

I wonder so I open the map which shows the people who have my marker. Those who bear a white dot are those marked while the red are corrupted.

Because of the meeting, the marker I put to those priests spread out to the other temples.

"Now look at that, we have spread them quite fast isn't it?"

[What do plan to do?]

"I plan to send a little spy to see what will be the attack"

[And what spy?]

I open my palm and a little black spider crawls out of it.

"I'll send this little guy to help us out"

I wave my hand activating the blessings I copy from Aaron. Gold patterns appeared in my arms before turning into a mystical power that sent the little spider away.

As soon as the spider disappeared a green dot emerged from the map, indicating its location.

"Okay go now little spidey"

The green dot moved and to my surprise, it was a bit too fast.

"Was that spider supposed to have that kind of speed?"

In the forest where the ninth temple was located, a little spider ran nimbly. Behind the creature was a giant lizard that made the tiny spider its prey, though Apollo had no idea of what was happening.

"Soon enough he will arrive inside the temple"

[It is good that the Ninth temple was one of the six locations listed on the file, that you have stolen inside the tenth archbishop's office]

"I guess we are pretty lucky"

I'll wait for the spider to return the information it gathered.

"I am tired I'll be resting a bit"

....

It was already afternoon and their class had long ended.

His classmates have gathered in the backyard to do some extra training. They wanted to ask Apollo to join them but they knew that something was keeping him occupied.

The sun began to set turning the sky colorful and serene. The violet hue color with the combination of blue and black painted the upper part of the sky. While close to the sun, three colors dance and blend together. Red, orange and yellow combine making the farewell of the day grand.

Apollo closed his eyes to rest, letting his dreams guide him to rest.

Another week passed and it was the last week of the eighth month of the year.

Apollo quietly sat down with the rest of his classmates. While some students kept looking at them, some maliciously while others were those who looked, out of curiosity.

The lower class were currently eating at the cafeteria, since all they did was train and study from the start of the classes, they all decided to eat and breathe some different types of air.

"Finally some fresh air"

Mckenzie said while resting his head on top of the long table.

"Hey Apollo we gotta eat but I am too hurt to move"

Niko said while struggling to get up from his seat.

"I'll get it no worries"

Apollo said while Alicia went along with him.

"It hurts" Blair cried as he tried to move but with his aching but he decided to remain seated.

"What's this? What's the lower class doing here?" a sarcastic voice made its way towards the lower class ears making it twitch.

"Hey, whatcha doing lower class" Another guy came trying to start trouble, however...

With their aching bodies and stressed mind, they don't have the capacity to be understanding. Since people are asking for trouble why not give it to them?

"Samael" Arabella spoke though her voice could barely be heard.

"On it"

Samael looked at the now group of people that began to surround them.

"It's becoming troublesome" he added as his breath began to heat up.

"Wait why do I feel like I am on fire?"

"I am burning!"

"No calm down you aren't!"

"But it hurts! It burns!"

"Calm down you aren't on fire"

With their noise increasing Aaron used his blessing to seal the space around them. With the space locked on no sound was able to penetrate it.

"Finally at peace"

Agnes mumbles while letting her head rest on Niko's shoulder.
