Nathan frowned. “What is it?”
Colin handed him a stack of documents and said, “The vampires have indeed become more active recently. They are openly defying your initial prohibition against their entry into human society and have been committing murders everywhere. Even though the vampires are targeting the worst of criminals, the number of people they've killed all over the world is alarming. Adrune is taking notice, and even Pope Eugene IV has personally appealed for attention to the resurgence of the vampires. He stated that the Curia is prepared to fight the vampires to the end.”
Speaking of this, Colin couldn't help but ask in a low voice, “Mr. Cross, considering Hepburn's declaration about returning to the vampires and leading them to seek a new path, could there be a connection between her and the vampires in these widespread killings of the most heinous human criminals?”
Nathan shook his head. “I don't know. But I have a vague feeling that things might not be as simple as they seem. Something's telling me a storm is coming.”
Just as he finished speaking, Lucas hurriedly entered the room. “Mr. Cross, Pope Eugene IV has expressed that he has an important matter to discuss and wishes to have a conversation with Earth Alliance.”
Nathan had a vague hunch that Eugene IV's presence might be connected to the vampires' affairs.
He pondered for a couple of seconds, then instructed, “Notify the key members of the alliance to join me in a video conference with Eugene IV.”
Sage said, understood!”
Half an hour later, Wolfric, Leopold, and other key members of the alliance all joined in, appearing in the video conference.
Naturally, Nathan joined in as well.
He briefly explained the situation to everyone, and soon after, the video call request from Eugene IV came through.
After accepting the call, Eugene IV, dressed in papal robes, appeared on the video.
