Beneath Mount Olympus, Blood Clan Emperor Avril had been lurking for over ten days, finally finding the opportunity to avenge the wound inflicted upon her by that spear.
Recently, the Western Blood Clan had been extremely aggressive, and all factions chose to steer clear of their momentum. Only the Holy See remained stubbornly defiant, resulting in bloodshed on both sides. Ever since Cain returned to Europe from Laojun Mountain, he had remained in seclusion behind closed doors; clearly, the current strength of the Holy See was not worth his personal intervention. Even the elders of the Holy See within the "God" organization dared not step forward to help, terrified of provoking Cain.
Those with the deepest grievances against the Holy See were Longke, Leer, and Scott—ancient feuds that could never be turned over. During Avril's tenure leading the Dark Council, relations between the Council and the Holy See had been relatively mild. Conflicts existed, but they had not yet completely torn off their masks like today.
