The fight came to an end, almost like a fleeting yet violent storm.

The crew and guards on the merchant ship deck were quickly overpowered and tied up with hardly any chance to resist. Their weapons scattered on the ground, their hands now only held feeble fists.

Fear and distress overflowed in their eyes, as if they could not comprehend why they had been attacked by the Resurrection Believers, and they did not want to guess what would happen next.

Viscount Francis probably guessed what was going on.

The nobles in town must have been unable to suppress their desire to replace him, and now, there was this ridiculous opportunity to eliminate him using the Rebirth Church.
