Adrian decided to use his time strengthening himself and his soulbounds. The information that he wants to obtain from the Church of Light seemed to be more troublesome than he anticipated. Anastacia even stated that even she did not expect that tight guard on the information that he wanted.
The holy churches might not openly show their friction, but a battle is happening behind the scenes. Each of the holy churches are gathering information about their competing church. Some of them are hiding holy relics of each other's churches so that one will not become more influential than the other.
The tight guard in the information about Abelport even made Anastacia curious about the reason why a small city is being well guarded by the Church of Light. Abelport is not even the area where the Church of Light is founded or an area where a holy relic is found.
