My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!

Chapter 360: Chapter 360: Life on line

Even if someone wanted to blame the Holy Church for this, they couldn't. The Minister of War did not use the Holy Essence.

He also did not serve the Holy Church, but rather worked for the Holy Emperor. Everything was carefully arranged to implicate the Holy Emperor.

If there was another envoy, they may have fallen for this trap, potentially even executing the Holy Emperor.

Unlike Eren, the other Great Elders were more ruthless and uncaring. If someone attempted to kill them, they would not hesitate to eliminate that person and their entire family.

If there was truly an Envoy from the Great Demon Sect, they would not have cared that they were in the Western Empire or within the reach of the Western Overlord.

Eren was still slightly surprised that the Holy Church was using someone like the Minister of War who held such a high position. They were truly willing to sacrifice a lot to drag the Demon Sect into this mess, even using such a significant pawn.

"Die for our Emperor!" The Minister of War exclaimed. Turning around, he suddenly swung his sword at Eren.

The other assassins also jumped out of their hiding positions, attacking Yu Lin and Zia. Their attacks were quite crude, as if they weren't too capable.

Zia stepped in front of Yu Lin, her aura flaring. It was time for her to show her strength.

Until now, she had been stuck in a weird role where her responsibility had been moaning to distract people or being a babysitter to Yu Lin. After a long time, she could finally go out and kill people.

Even though she had a small stature and didn't look like it, she was quite strong.

"Hmm?" Zia was prepared to crack a few skulls, but before she could even make a move, she felt the temperature turn colder.

The bodies of the assassins suddenly froze in thick blocks of ice while they were still in the middle of the air. With a thud, the blocks of ice fell on the ground, shattering into small pieces along with the bodies of the assassins.

In the blink of an eye, all the assassins were killed which surprised Zia. She looked back at Yu Lin whose eyes were shining in a beautiful blue shade. Her eyes soon recovered to their normal, as if nothing had changed.

Even though the assassins weren't too strong, they weren't weak either. To have them killed in an instant was definitely something impressive, especially for someone like Yu Lin who had only been learning in the sect for a short time.

Zia, despite being a Great Elder in the sect, couldn't recognise the skill that Yu Lin used as it was not one of the skills that were in the sect library. She knew all significant skills like that after all.

As an Alchemist, it was her responsibility to know about the skills that the Sect taught the Disciples so she could prepare medicines accordingly.

Not only was Yu Lin's skill not something that belonged to the sect but it was also quite a high tier skill from the looks of it.

Even Zia wasn't sure if she could actually protect herself from this skill if Yu Lin was in the same realm as her in the future.

Although she had seen Zia Yu Lin train in the past, this was the first time she saw this skill being used.

While Zia was surprised by the skill displayed by Yu Lin, the Minister of War was also surprised to see his men being killed with such ease. These people were definitely stronger than he had thought, which didn't frighten him.

If anything, he appeared more pleased as it meant that he was going to die more swiftly without much pain.

'Soon, I will be able to meet the goddess in the afterlife!' he thought as his determination became even stronger.

With all his might, he swung his sword while Eren simply observed. The attack was too slow for him, especially when he could use the Bloodline Ability of acceleration.

He could easily dodge the attack at any time but he was curious about something else, especially since he could feel the presence of another person approaching.

With his heightened senses, he could feel that the person wasn't alone. He was being followed by the armored warriors.

Eren wasn't sure if there were more people coming to attack him. If it was a trap by the Holy Church then it was unlikely as the trap was going to complete the moment the Minister of War was killed.

Even if Eren didn't kill him, he was certain that the Minister of War had prepared to kill himself through unknown means.

In that case, the person who was coming could only be the Holy Emperor. It was evident that the Emperor knew that the Monster of War was a traitor if he read the novel.

The only thing that he couldn't be certain of was the time of attack on Eren since his presence here had changed the entire plot. Normally, this was supposed to happen with the actual envoy which he was not.

He was only posing as the Envoy to use the Holy Empire while the real Envoy was probably on his way.

"Stop right there!" Soon, the Holy Emperor came into Eren's sight. He called out with all his might but he felt that he was too late.

From what he remembered, the attack on the envoy happened after the banquet. That's why he wasn't as alert. Moreover, the sword had disappeared which wasn't supposed to happen in the original novel.

Because of the disappearance of the Sword, his guards were stretched thin. This allowed the Minister of War an opportunity to attack Eren, replacing the original guards who had gone searching throughout the city.

Looking at the panicked expressions of the Holy Emperor, Eren became more certain that the Holy Emperor had nothing to do with it. It was just as he expected.

The Holy Emperor was running in his direction as if his life depended on stopping this.
