Chapter 127 - Where Does His Loyalty Lie?
The statement stunned everyone present , what did he mean worshipping Lucifer?
Lucifer was a hated figure , especially in the church of life , the fallen angel had a notorious past and was once wooing the goddess of life. However things got ugly real fast , archangel Raphael also loved the goddess of life.
A confrontation between Lucifer and Raphael saw the goddess choosing Lucifer over Raphael , only to see her heart broken as Lucifer had an affair with the ice giantess Hindera .
Raphael was furious at Lucifer at breaking her heart , whereas the goddess of life absolutely hated Lucifer that point on.
Naturally the Church of life also did not take kindly to the heartbreaker of their goddess , the notorious fallen angel Lucifer. Not putting it mildly , he was absolutely loathed in the church of life.
Megan was at a loss , the fact that they served Lucifer was a secret that even she only discovered after rising to upper echleons of the organization. How did the outsider know the information?
Was there a mole? .... There was no way she could accept the fact could she?
Stuttering and quaking she tried to put a brave face as she said " wwwwhhhaattt , nnnonnsenseee aaa aaare youuu uuu saayiinng ".
Rudra chuckled " Tough pretender aren't you , is the chalice that you procured from me not a semi legendary item that can improve the purity of any poured liquid? The gift of archangel Raphael to the goddess of life ??Called the ' Chalice of Purity? '".
Megan was stunned to silence , even she only knew this information because she was responsible for carrying out the mission , otherwise even people higher than her in the organization had no access to that intel.
But how did this seemingly nobody know soo much about their organization?
Cardinal Lee was stunned , the chalice was soo valuable? Why could he not inspect the object.
Gary was not aware of the Chalice's identity he spouted " What nonsense , inspect the chalice for yourself , its not what you say it is , or are we all who inspected the items fools and only you know its true worth ".
Megan also recovered from the shock , she said " yes , yes , the chalice is not what you say it is ".
Rudra knew he had this in the bag as he said " I knew you would spout such nonsense , hence i aldready gathered the necessary evidence needed ".
Rudra unflurred a scroll , it was a tier 5 identification scroll , that he had borrowed from his Won Knight mansion .
The scroll was worth over 60 million gold coins and Rudra had compensated the Won Knight mansion 20 million in gold to borrow the item ,?it had absolutely emptied the guild warehouse , hence Rudra was betting big on this development.
When he took out the tier 5 scroll , Megan panicked. She knew that the tier 5 scroll would reveal the identity of the chalice.
Cardinal Lee was also surprised to see such a valuable treasure been brought out , as he granted his permission to use the treasure?on the chalice.
Rudra gave the scroll to a paladin , who infused his mana inside the scroll to activate it.
The chalice's real stats were revealed.
[ Chalice Of Purity ] ( Semi legendary ) ( upgradable) : A gift given by?Archangel Raphael to the godess of life , it purifies any liquid poured inside to the highest possible grade.

( Upgradable)
( Upgrade conditions locked )
Everyone was shocked upon reading the item , it was clear at this point that the duo here were lying through their teeth and their identity was anything but simple.
Cardinal Lee 's expression turned cold as he said " Beat the prisoners up , no food for them today ".
The paladins complied , as screams could be heard as Rudra and Cardinal Lee exited the room .
Cardinal Lee now asked for the full story over the incidence and Rudra narrated it beautifully.
" I had stumbled upon the chalice in an auction , i had no idea of its origins when i bought it , however my Eyes of Truth are a inherint quality that i aquired when i was adopted into the Won Knight family , and i could see all hidden stats of equipments clearly! ". Rudra lied through his teeth , he did not see s*** on the item , but he needed to make it beleiveable .
" When the two heretics came at my guilds door knocking , i took my time to understand their intentions , after understanding that they are connected to the same organization as the blood merchant , i knew something fishy was up ". Rudra continued , Cardinal Lee was very impressed by Rudra's quick wits , however the Lucifer connection was not made yet .
" I sent my men to contact you on one hand , on the other hand i sent some hunters from my guild to go to the locations where this organization owns gold mines , when they followed a mine supervisor they stumbled upon a liar where they have captured many races for what seems like a blood sacrifice , and he overheard a conversation about the chalice ". Rudra said .
" Finally , what happened is the last key was a slave captured by them who believes himself to be a descendant of archangel sariel , the plan was to pour his blood in the chalice to purify it to the pure sariel bloodline to use as sacrifice to lucifer, unfortunately we do not know the complete plan , nor do we have the strength to free the captured race citizens , i can only come to the church for help ".
Cardinal Lee's eyes widened , this was an urgent situation , he needed to contact archbishop for this !
