Inside Helagert City, most of the surviving residents had now been rescued and were recovering in and around the church. After returning there, Lewan and Angel found themselves overwhelmed with work. There were over twenty thousand people to care for; if Bishop Ivander hadn't cast several intermediate Hall of Radiance spells, Lewan, Angel, and the nuns would surely have been worked to death.
Unfortunately, although Bishop Ivander was a Tier 8 Transcendent, he could not use high-level Radiance prayers and magic. Still, Tier 8 was the final stage of intermediate Transcendents, so Ivander would likely become an advanced Transcendent before long.
Meanwhile, Lewan had broken through once again, much to the astonishment of the nuns, advancing to a Tier 4 Transcendent. Just one more breakthrough and she would step into the ranks of intermediate Transcendents. And she had only been cultivating for less than half a year! This made Angel extremely envious, and she couldn't help wondering if the Goddess had misjudged them—clearly, Lewan's talent was far superior to her own.
