The Path to Sainthood from Fairy Tail

Under the leadership of the Pope of Light, their forces could have safely passed through Hundred Flowers Village and the town, and then joined the opposing forces in the capital.

However, everything seemed to be predetermined, and no matter how cautious the Pope was, he could not avoid it.

Under the Pope's leadership, the group bypassed the town without entering. Just as they were about to leave the area of ​​Hundred Flowers Village completely, a beautiful figure blocked their way.

The Pope and his entourage stopped abruptly, staring intently at the woman blocking their path.

Prioritizing stability, the Pope spoke first, preparing to communicate with the people in front: "We are a group from the Church of Light. What are you doing blocking our way? There shouldn't be any conflict between us."

Seeing that there was still no response, the Pope had no choice but to continue compromising: "How about this, if this is indeed the road you opened up, it's only right that we pay some tolls to pass through. I wonder if one gold coin per person would be appropriate?"

Seeing his father so obsequious, the divine being who was playing with a nameplate immediately said with dissatisfaction, "Father, what are you talking to her about? There are so many of us, are we afraid of just one person?"

The Pope was very dissatisfied with his self-determination. There was a chance that there would be no conflict if he had just followed his pace. Who knew if this man had bishop relatives, papal teachers, or divinely inspired siblings or other powerful backers?

Just as the Pope was about to say something kind to change the cold atmosphere, the figure in front of them moved.

While the others could understand the Pope's philosophy of prioritizing stability, they now represented the majority of the Church of Light's power, and it was utterly unreasonable for them to fear an ordinary woman.

Therefore, many people in the team actually agreed with the God Descendant's view that no matter who was blocking their way, they should just destroy them.

As the figure drew closer, a bishop suddenly exclaimed, "I've seen her before! She's the head of the Holy Church. I saw her when I went to a meeting before."

The Pope immediately asked, "What do you mean? Isn't the Pope the head of the Holy Church? Tell me everything you know!"

The bishop nodded and quickly said, "When I attended the meeting, the Pope of the Holy Church only made a brief appearance and said some insignificant pleasantries. She was basically in charge of the entire meeting process by herself. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was the true power behind the Holy Church."

The divine being scoffed, "He's just a steward of a church. Other churches are one thing, but what's there to be afraid of in a newly formed church?"

The Pope roared, "Enough! Stop talking, you unfilial son!"

"Me?" The descent of the gods pointed at himself in disbelief.

Although they were now on someone else's territory, he couldn't understand why they should be so humble in the face of a newly established church.

Hino kept a close eye on the arrogant god-descended one from beginning to end.

While the Pope of Light and the Descendant of God were arguing, Hino spoke up: "Even if you two fought to the death, it wouldn't have been my business..."

The Pope smiled, finally feeling relieved.

It's good to be able to communicate; in this way, we can use the art of language to change the other person's mind.

“This leader of the Holy Church, since we have no grudges between us, how about we let this go? After all, you have only been established for a short time, and although you are allied with the Church of Life, the alliance is not unbreakable. What the Church of Life can give to the Holy Church, our Church of Light can also give to us…”

"hehe."

The Pope of Light's words were interrupted by Xino's soft laughter.

"Don't try to paint me a rosy picture like that. Our boss is much better at making empty promises than you are."

The Pope's smile vanished instantly. If he still didn't realize that the person before him was up to no good, then he was a worthless pope.

"What do you want to do?"

Hino pointed at the Pope and the others, and said coldly, "In fact, in my plan, you people should fight to the death, and in the end, the Holy Church should resolve the final victory, so that the people living in this world can enjoy a better life."

One of the bishops immediately sneered, "Ridiculous! Do you think you're a god? A newly formed church dares to try and take on an established church. Don't be ridiculous!"

The divine being gripped the plaque in his hand and sneered, "This must be a case of long hair and short wit! Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse. Even if our old church has suffered heavy losses due to fighting among ourselves, it is still not something a new church like yours can contend with!"

"Ha! Forget it, rather than keeping you waiting with hope, I'd rather show you the stark reality right now!"

The Pope's expression changed, and he reached out and shouted, "No!"

In those brief three seconds, the Pope seemed to have lived a lifetime.

The demigod who charged forward was instantly cut in two, and then the culprit disappeared before his eyes, while continuous screams echoed around the Pope.

Blood, splattered from somewhere, stained his eyes, turning his entire field of vision red.

Three seconds later, he saw a headless body “rise” in front of him.

Finally, the Pope realized that the body he was seeing was his own, and that he had been beheaded.

Everything happened so fast that even the divine being was unaware of what was happening.

The Church of Light was annihilated.

Hino clapped his hands, as if he had just done something insignificant.

She went to the body of the divine being who had been split in two at the beginning, kicked away the useless lower half, and then used telekinesis to take the nameplate from the divine being's hand.

A bright silver nameplate was suspended in mid-air, with a series of numbers and some complex information engraved on it.

Looking at the nameplate, Xinuo said helplessly, "I always liked to call the identity tags 'dog tags,' and now look what's happened. The person is dead, and the natives are even collecting the identity tag. It's a disgrace to the reincarnators!"

This identification tag isn't actually an item exclusive to the reincarnators; rather, it's an identity document given to each investigator by their boss.

In addition to verifying identity, this ID card can also detect other people carrying the same ID card within a certain range.

In different worlds, the detection range of identity tags is limited.

If the Church of Light hadn't passed through Hundred Flowers Village, Xinuo wouldn't have noticed her teammate's identity card.

Once the location of the identity tokens was confirmed, Xinuo immediately took action and killed these people.

"What a bunch of useless trash. Don't be a reincarnator in your next life, just live as an ordinary person." Xinuo casually put away his identity token and then returned to the village.

Golden Rooster Kingdom, Royal Capital.

After a fierce battle between the Dark God Descendant and the Elemental God Descendant, a cloud of dust rose from the ground, and two figures gradually became clear in the dust.
