Accompanied by Bishop Connor's calm voice, the entire venue fell silent once again.
Originally, it seemed foolproof, certain that Lynn would die in Saint Square today, yet he hadn't expected such a dramatic reversal to occur.
Fortunately, besides ordering Lynn's assassination, he had another fallback plan.
However, it required him, the one operating from behind the scenes, to step forward and completely reverse public opinion.
"Everyone, please remain calm!"
The clergy accompanying him used a reprimand imbued with Transcendent power, instantly suppressing the commotion on the square.
Archbishop Connor slowly walked towards the judgment platform, with each step, his scepter struck the bluestone ground heavily, emitting a dull "thud...thud" sound.
This sound reverberated across the square like the prelude of the Divine, gradually synchronizing with the heartbeat of everyone present, making them unconsciously hold their breath and instantly quiet down.
