It was past five o'clock in the evening and was usually time for dinner.

Although there were not many clergies around the Holy Church, some priests and bishops saw the confrontation between Vernal and Monn.

"Is that Prelate Vernal of the Judicial Department?"

"Shh! Keep your voice down. You'll be in trouble if Prelate Vernal hears you!"

"Why is Cardinal Monn arguing with him? And it seems that Prelate Vernal lost the argument..."

"I heard that someone complained to Prelate Vernal, saying that Cardinal Monn didn't do anything at work and was irresponsible..."

"I think he's right. I've never seen Cardinal Monn fight in the past two years!"

"That's right. The other three cardinals are always on the front line when they fight vampires, werewolves, and others!"

"Last time, the Cardinal Quiniel killed a bloodthirsty demon dragon. He's too powerful!"

"I think that the Cardinal Monn became a cardinal through unclean means..."

"I heard that he's a relative of the pope. The pope takes good care of him..."

Priests and bishops were regular clergy members of the Orthodox Church. There were many of them.

They all showed respect and fear when they spoke of Vernal.

After all, the reputation of the Judicial Department was comparable to those cruel and terrifying werewolves and vampires to these low-level clergies!

Often, a priest would be taken away by the Judicial Department and then secretly executed.

Most of them didn't think much of Monn when they talked about him.

Monn had not given them enough deterrence in the past two years even though his rank was higher than Vernal's!

He went to work on time from nine to five. He rarely went out to fight with the dark creatures, and often treated others calmly, and did not have a deep relationship with them.

Monn's presence was probably the lowest among the four cardinals in St. Servant's Cathedral.

It was also because of this that they did not show any respect or emotions when they spoke of Monn.

Many bishops even directly used a mocking tone and expression when they talk about this maverick cardinal!

After a while, an elder dressed in a pure white robe with golden edges walked out of the cathedral. The gathering clergy quickly placed their hands on their chests and bowed to him.

"Your Holiness!"

The elder's temples were grey, and his hair was neat. He wore a thorn garland that looked like it was made of dried branches and held a scepter that was as long as an arm in his hand. The scepter glowed with a pale golden luster.

Andrew, the most powerful person in the Orthodox Church's St. Servant Cathedral, was also one of the three most powerful popes under the pope of the Orthodox Church.

"As you were. God is watching you."

Andrew's face was solemn, but he had a kind smile. Those who were watched by him would feel waves of warmth in them.

That was not only the illusion brought by Andrew's identity as the pope of the cathedral but also because of his powerful Holy Rank ability. He naturally brought with him a halo that could slightly cleanse people's hearts in addition to being bathed in the holy light of the True God almost all year round.

"I heard that you seemed to be talking about Vernal and the Cardinal Monn? What happened?" Andrew asked. His gaze turned to the still angry Vernal not far away at the same time.

"Reporting to his holiness, it's like this..."

A bishop walked forward and performed a standard church ritual. He began to explain the situation that they had just seen.

Of course, they naturally did not dare to criticize Monn and Vernal in front of the pope. They only briefly described the situation.

"They argued..."

Andrew frowned, feeling a little puzzled.

Although Vernal was in charge of the Judicial Department and had been in contact with evil and darkness all day long, he had watched this child grow up from a young age. He was also surprised by the persistence of justice and faith in his heart.

As for Monn...

He was a relatively responsible cardinal in Andrew's impression. A few years ago, he had become a cardinal with his devout faith in the True God and his tyrannical strength that came from his bitter cultivation.

He could also complete the tasks that he had ordered very well.

Cardinal Monn was also a relatively calm and easy-going person usually. Why would the two of them argue?

Andrew waved his hand and told the bishops and priests to dismiss when he saw they were still waiting for orders.

As for him, he walked to Vernal, who was not far away.

He was not responsible for the specific matters as the pope of the cathedral. Those were for the cardinals, the leader of the Holy Knights, and the Bishop of the Judicial Department to take care of.

However, he had to worry about many things since he was the pope of this cathedral.

For example, he had to know about what had happened if Vernal and Monn argued!

...

Monn had already walked out of the area of St. Servant's Cathedral and came to a mountain range outside the city just as Pope Andrew was about to ask Vernal what had happened.

The mountain range was called the "Suva Mountains". It was endless, and it was said that powerful magical beasts were occupying the land as kings.

However, the Orthodox sect would not provoke them since it could not affect human society.

Monn's purpose in coming here was to test out his newly improved strength!

Monn took off his cumbersome red robe after looking at the weather, then wrapped it into a bundle and carried it behind his back.

Then, Monn leaped up and flew into the sky, speeding towards the depths of the Suva Mountains!

The wind howled crazily in the air. Monn's expression was calm as he sighed slightly in his heart.

It had been two years since he came to this world.

He was an author of web novels in his previous life. He found that he had directly occupied his current body when he transmigrated here.

There was nothing special about this body. The thing special about his identity was that he was the cardinal of the Orthodox Church!

In his memory, the world he was currently in was called the Sallum Continent. There were many races on the continent.

There were humans, the Bloodsucker, Werewolves, Dwarves, Elves, Demon Dragons, Dark Cat Demons, and so on.

There was hatred and communication among the many races. The situation on the Sallum Continent had been stable after the Battle of the True Gods hundreds of years ago.

Humans had four kingdoms and were considered one of the most powerful forces in the Battle of the True Gods. The Orthodox Church was one of the four kingdoms and the only True God Sect in the Kingdom of Kate.

The Orthodox Church was powerful, and strength was respected in the sect!

The previous owner of Monn's body had become a cardinal with his powerful strength, which came from his bitter cultivation.

But the problem was that Monn didn't bring anything except his memories after transmigrated!

Even the previous owner's powerful strength disappeared when he transmigrated!

Monn was like sitting in the position of a cardinal of the Orthodox Church who was respected for his martial strength with his mortal body.

Monn was heartbroken at that moment!

Fortunately, a voice sounded in his mind after he adapted to this body!

He had obtained a system called [Clock-In and Out 9-to-5 from Work System ]!

Although the name was strange, the way to operate it was simple and clear!

Monn would be able to obtain a certain reward from the system as long as he went to work on time and clocked in and out 9-to-5!

Moreover, there would be a huge reward and a lucky draw every time he clocked in for a week, a month, a year, and other nodes.

That day was the second anniversary of the clocking in and out that Monn accumulated.

His strength was also about to break through from Amethyst Rank to Holy Rank!

Monn felt that the range of increment in his strength would be more than the rewards from the previous first anniversary.

It was very likely that he would skip the initial stage of Holy Rank and directly reach the terrifying strength of the intermediate stage of Holy Rank!

Thus, Monn came to the depths of the Suva Mountains to test the level his new strength had reached..
