With Damrada, Granbell and Mariabell under my control, I was about to interrogate them more about the kids and Western Holy Church, when suddenly a humanoid insect tried to attack me.
One look from Rinnegan, and he went to sleep.
From what I could tell, this guy seems stronger than Rimuru.
He doesn't seem like a normal monster. He isn't a demon, and most likely not an angel as well.
"What species is he?"
"Insectar. A semi-spiritual lifeform from another world."
From another world?
"Tell me more about it."
"His name is Razul. He has been guarding the Western Nations against the attacks from Demon Lord Guy's daemons from the north."
Oh. So this Razul is strong.
In fact, he seems to be stronger than Granbell, an aged ex-Hero.
After ensuring that there will be no further disturbance, I started the interrogation with Granbell.
Starting with the Western Holy Church.
And the information was pretty groundbreaking, so much so that it can destroy the whole Church.
The Holy Emperor of Lubelius is a vampire. And not just some vampire, but the twin brother of Demon Lord Valentin.
Moreover, the so-called 'god' that Luminism worships is a True Demon Lord, who is not in the current 'Ten Great Demon Lords' and sends her subordinate Valentin in it.
Demon Lord Luminous Valentine.
So, the Church which has the doctrine of eradication of all monsters, is run by monsters, and worships a monster.
This information is great for destroying Church.
But I can't be reckless here. The one behind the sham is a True Demon Lord, and very old at that with lots of experience. While I don't have much experience.
There is a chance that Rinnegan genjutsu can one-shot her just like Granbell, but if she has an Ultimate Skill specialising in protection of mind, things can get nasty.
Afterall, Rimuru got 4 Ultimate Skills just upon becoming a True Demon Lord, with Raphael that can protect his mind.
Moreover, she can even revive dead people.
So she can't be underestimated.
But, I intend to defeat her and make her the Naraka Path, since she can revive the dead. She will be a perfect fit for it.
And then, there is the True Hero, Chorona that is sealed in an 'Holy Ark'. The strongest True Hero until now, who sealed Veldora.
Chorona is Luminous Valentine's secret weapon. I wonder if she can actually control Chorona.
Judging by the fact that she is running a Church to control humans, she might have an Ultimate Skill for it. So Rinnegan might not be very effective.
So trying to destroy the Church manually right now is foolishness.
Moving onto Mariabell, she is a reincarnator, which is unusual. Not many people reincarnate, but are summoned or just appear in this world. The only other reincarnator I know is Rimuru.
And she has the Unique Skill 'Greed'.
She was a corrupt and greedy European monarch in her past life, killing millions of people just for enriching herself more by causing wars, economic collapse, colonisation and such.
So, she is not a kid, even though her body is of one.
She is controlling many people like many in the Western Council, and even Yuuki.
But I read spoilers that Yuuki has Anti-Skill.
So, Yuuki is probably playing her. Letting her think that he is under her control.
Or, he might genuinely be under her control.
So, killing her should lift the control.
Right now, Granbell is more useful alive, as the Sun Luminary. He will help in spreading the rumours about Western Holy Church. In fact, I want to learn everything from him, including Disintegration.
If I kill the Sun Luminary right now, the Church will get cautious.
He will be my spy in the Church.
As for Razul and Mariabell...
I embedded several Rinnegan rods in Razul.
"You will be the Asura Path."
I will be taking Razul since he is so rare and strong. As for protection against Guy's daemons, they will be a good training for me, and will allow me to gain reputation as a Hero.
This will stop the rumours that I am under Rimuru's control.
And, I will expose the Church's corruption of conducting summoning, no. Let's pin this on Mariabell. Along with Razul's 'death'.
Mariabell controlled Razul, and several summoned Otherworlders, and tried to usurp the position of Granbell as the elder of the Rossos, and become the ruler of Kingdom of Siltrosso.
Then I, the Hero saved the old Sun Luminary Granbell from Razul and Mariabell's minions, and vowed to protect the people from Guy's daemons. And also lifted the people in the Council of West from Mariabell's control.
That's the perfect story to go with for now.
Let's not alert the Church until Rimuru becomes a Demon Lord.
Now, let's test if I can somehow steal the Unique Skill 'Greed'.
