Overlord: I’ve Been Recruiting Followers in Another World

"Detrimental to the church?"

Hearing Lakyus say this, Kael raised his eyebrows and gestured for her to continue, "Explain."

"Yes."

Lakyus arranged her words and analyzed for Kael, "Although Princess Renner is ruined, the royal family still possesses a certain degree of power and remains the orthodox leader in the Re-Estize Kingdom."

"Even though Princess Renner has become such a person, she is His Majesty's daughter. His Majesty will be deeply saddened, but there is still familial affection for her in his heart."

"If you had killed Princess Renner on the spot, His Majesty the King would say nothing on the surface, but he would definitely harbor resentment towards you."

"Furthermore, Princess Renner is a noble. The kingdom's nobles, even if they fight among themselves, always act xenophobically towards non-nobles. If you had killed Princess Renner there, it would undoubtedly trample on the face of all the kingdom's nobles. This would impact your image and hinder the church's future development."

"Hmm," Kael showed a thoughtful expression. After a moment, he nodded at Lakyus with approval and said, "What you said makes sense."

Lakyus and Princess Renner were not the same type of person. Lakyus was a 'good person' in every sense of the word.

'Good people' were different from others because they were highly emotional.

Therefore, even though she knew Princess Renner's true face, Lakyus couldn't immediately turn against her and want to kill her on the spot.

Kael's conviction was still visible in this matter.

Since Lakyus was willing to intercede for her, Kael raised his hand.

After all, he only needed the Golden Princess to lose her status in the kingdom. As for whether she was still alive or dead, Kael wasn't particularly interested.

Using "this waste who has lost the value of her daughter's status" to gain Lakyus's favor—that could foster the loyalty of subordinates or enhance the relationship between the two parties. This was an advantage.

Seeing Kael nod his head, Lakyus couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on her face.

"Then, let's do this for now. I will think about how to deal with that woman later. It's best to exchange some benefits or something."

Kael said thoughtfully.

His eyes suddenly shifted to Lakyus, as if he remembered something else, and he added, "If you have any suggestions, you can also tell me. As long as it's good for the church, I will adopt it."

A glimmer of light flashed in Lakyus's eyes, and she saluted respectfully, "Yes, God, I will definitely ponder this matter seriously when I return."

The two people then returned to the church residence.

After that, Kael let Lakyus move on her own, and he returned to the underground palace to prepare for the meeting with the Dragon Princess in the afternoon.

Time passed by, and it soon arrived at twelve noon.

In the front yard of the church residence, as the light of teleportation magic flickered, Dragon Princess Draudillon Oriculus, Prime Minister Leina Herman, and the Crystal Tear Squad appeared here.

"Please follow me."

Enri Emmot, who was in charge of receiving the Draconic Kingdom's group, smiled and raised her hand to the crowd, then walked in front of the group and towards the underground palace.

The entourage passed through the front yard and entered the place where the worshipers trained every day.

Since Kael had temporarily canceled his field combat training, many people had gathered at the station's training ground, including villagers who walked out of Carne Village, as well as newly recruited members in E-Rantel.

Leina Herman glanced at the training crowd without leaving a trace and roughly estimated the church's numbers.

The total number was about five hundred, and even excluding the hundred strong force we saw last night, the Church of Destiny still had at least four hundred more.

I just don't know if these four hundred are as elite as the hundred from last night.

Leina Herman looked at Sevelare Brise Alderan, who was beside him.

Before he left, he had asked Sevelare to pay attention to the situation of the Church of Destiny after he came here.

Sensing his gaze, Sevelare nodded unconsciously, then gestured for him to look at the magic caster training party not far away.

Leina Herman looked in the direction he pointed and saw several magic casters using magic to attack training targets, and the magic they used was extremely powerful.

Loud thunder continuously rolled in the magic caster's arm. With a flick of his finger, the lightning instantly broke free from his arm and transformed into a thunder and lightning dragon and snake and roared out.

This was Fifth Tier magic [Dragon Lightning].

Leina Herman was not a magic caster, and the knowledge of magic he had learned himself was not enough for him to judge the name and power of the magic, which he would know because by chance someone had practiced it himself last night.

With sharp eyes, he noticed that the group of magic casters who were using [Dragon Lightning] did not have adventurer identity plates on their necks like those they had seen last night, and they were not wearing magic robes, but common civilian clothes in general.

Without waiting for him to think more, the group had already passed the training ground and entered the church residence.

Enri Emmot led them into a normal room, took out a pair of command keys in their hesitant gazes, and activated them.

The key suddenly emitted a magical light, and a dark circular magic door appeared in front of everyone, which was extremely startling.

"Everyone, please!"

Enri Emmot greeted the crowd, then walked in first.

Draudillon Oriculus and the others quickly followed, and not long after, they all arrived in the meeting room.

Upon entering the hall, the crowd saw at first glance the man seated on the throne.

His body wore an extremely valuable white gown, and his handsome appearance made anyone who saw him feel ashamed of themselves. Golden light slowly flowed around his body, adding a sense of sanctity.

"God Kael, esteemed guests from the Draconic Kingdom have come to see you."

Enri Emmot stopped before the throne steps and bowed respectfully on one knee to the man.

After a moment of hesitation, everyone from the Draconic Kingdom, who followed them, finally imitated Enri Emmot's gesture and saluted the presence on the throne, led by Chancellor Leina Herman.

And Kael, after seeing their actions, couldn't help but smile on his face. Then his eyes shifted to the body of the only standing young girl, the Dragon Princess.

The first words he uttered surprised everyone in the Draconic Kingdom.

"Your Majesty Draudillon Oriculus, it seems a bit rude to come in disguise when meeting me, doesn't it?"

The Dragon Princess showed a surprised expression on her face, not expecting that her secret would be discovered by the other party.

After thinking for a moment, she bowed slightly towards Kael and said, "My apologies, I was indeed rude."

As soon as the words fell, a magical brilliance appeared on her body, enveloping her youthful form entirely.

Next, under the influence of the magic, the small body began to change, as if it had grown in an instant.
