Chapter 452 -438 Ivina: I can’t imagine how terrifying the realm controlled by wizards could be!
During the time she left the seaside town, Ivina experienced confusion and helplessness, and she faced many dangers.
Fortunately, her swordsmanship was strong enough to deal with the majority of threats, which allowed her to survive. Afterward, she went to the Holy City and passed the selection of the Divine Punishment Army, earning the opportunity to undergo a transformation and drink the Potion of Divine Grace!
In those two years, in order to find information about Loth, Ivina joined the most dangerous witch-hunting squad within the Divine Punishment Army and witnessed the evil, madness, and hysteria of the wizards!
They possessed powerful and bizarre witchcraft, hiding in the shadows conducting unknown research, spreading plagues, and being the source of pain…
All that she saw deepened Ivina’s understanding of the descriptions of wizards in the Holy Bible, and it sparked a new belief in her—to eliminate the minions of the Evil God and thus save more people!
Complex thoughts flashed through Ivina’s mind, but they were soon interrupted by a tremor coming from the ground…
It felt like a large deployment of troops, and Ivina immediately became alert. The northern border of the empire often suffered barbarian raids, and the village ahead might very well be slaughtered by them.
However, upon seeing the fluttering banner of the Holy Emblem in the distance, Ivina’s heart settled.
The ones who raced all the way here were indeed the legions of the Church’s Divine Punishment Army.
Ivina immediately mounted her horse and led her men to meet them, reporting everything that had happened in the village.
“You did very well, Ivina, to kill the grand wizard, it seems your strength has increased a lot,” Gustav, the commander of the Divine Punishment Army, said to the eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl, not skimping on words of praise.
Ivina was probably the most perfect person in integrating the power of the Potion of Divine Grace in hundreds of years, and her physical qualities were much stronger than those of ordinary knights of the Divine Punishment.
The only flaw was her scarce and ordinary talent for Divine Arts.
Gustav took out the Holy Bible from his waist, made a revision in the chapter about the Corpse Stealer, added the word “exterminate” at the end, and increased the bounty to forty thousand!
A hint of joy appeared on Ivina’s face.
She herself did not care about the amount of money, as the salary she received on a daily basis was already sufficient for her everyday use.
But the increase in the bounty meant that the families of the fallen knights of the Divine Punishment could receive more compensation money.
“We should head back now, return to the Holy City!” Gustav put the Holy Bible back into his chest, his gaze turning toward the direction of the Holy City.
“But, sir, according to our investigation, the frequent activities of wizards in the northern part of the empire might be related to an Evil God…” Ivina hesitated as she spoke.
During her time in the witch-hunting squad, Ivina had waged war against the Evil God more than once, fully aware of the immense harm it could cause. If not eliminated in time, it could result in casualties in the tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands!
“I understand your concerns, Ivina, but we have more important matters to tend to now!” Gustav’s expression was very solemn. “Not long ago, I received word that a tragedy occurred inside the empire…”
“The group of wizards previously hiding overseas launched a sudden attack on the [Hadarata] Kingdom in the western part of the empire, using the succession dispute as leverage, inciting Prince Hattar to commit patricide and supported him to take the throne as a puppet king.”
“So now the entire kingdom has fallen, and it has probably turned into a playground for wizards and demons…” Gustav sighed and said.
A look of shock covered Ivina’s face, a chill unavoidably rising in her heart.
She could not imagine just how terrifying a nation ruled by wizards could be, nor how many bloody tragedies would occur!
Ivina had once resolved a disaster caused by an Evil God, where several crazed followers of the Evil God took control of a fortress in the north, conducting a large-scale blood sacrifice where tens of thousands of impoverished people were slaughtered and transformed into nourishment for the growth of the Evil God’s power.
The horrific scenes still lingered in Ivina’s mind.
“Commander, are we going back this time to subdue those wizards?” a Divine Knight quickly asked.
Ivina tightened her grip on the thin blade in her hand, realizing that the crisis facing the empire internally was indeed more severe than that in the north.
Gustav shook his head. “No, in fact, the church has already dispatched two expeditions, and the results…”

“Resulted in Saintess Lucia dying in battle, the Judgement Chief being captured alive, and all the crusading armies completely annihilated!”
Gustav’s voice was soft, yet it exploded like thunder in everyone’s ears.
The Divine Knights present all widened their eyes, hardly believing what they had heard!
Ivina was no exception, her eyes flickering with disbelief.
In the past, no matter what kind of enemy they faced, as long as the church resolved to eradicate it, they were certain to achieve victory.
However, this time the crusading army had suffered such a disastrous defeat…
She did not know how formidable the Saintess and the Judgement Chief were, but she had personally seen Gustav, the leader of the Divine Army, in action.
Even that terrifying Evil God, nurtured by the flesh and blood of tens of thousands, would be easily slain by Gustav who wielded Divine Power!
“According to the oracle, the apocalypse… has already arrived!” Gustav said with a grave expression.
“The apocalypse?!” Ivina murmured softly.
“Yes!” Gustav nodded and then explained. “Just as the Bible says, the sin and endless desires in people’s hearts will eventually bring disaster. The increasingly powerful witchcraft mastered by those wizards is a harbinger of the apocalypse!”
The apocalypse?
After the initial shock and chaos, Ivina and the Divine Knights gradually calmed down, their eyes filled with determination.
They had long since disregarded life and death, and they were determined to eliminate those chaos-spreading wizards and prevent the apocalypse from arriving!
“The Pope has a very important task to entrust to you,” Gustav said, looking at Ivina suddenly.
“Please give your command, Commander!” Ivina responded respectfully.
