My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!

"Is the Holy Church about to attack us? Or they don't know about this yet?" the clone asked Eren, walking closer to the window to peek outside.

If the Holy Priestess was kidnapped and taken hostage, it was only a matter of time before the Cardinals were going to surround this place.

"I don't think you will have to worry about the Cardinals anymore. The Holy Church is..." Eren started explaining, only to stop in the middle.

He realized that explaining it was going to take a long time. Instead of explaining everything, he simply shared the memories of the entire incident with his clone.

Although his clone was useless in an actual battle, he was still useful as an administrator. Eren didn't want to deal with the massive vacuum created with the destruction of the Holy Church.

The Royal Family had to take the lead and stabilize the situation. As this was a time consuming process, Eren left it for his clone to deal with.

After receiving the memories, the clone understood everything. He realised what Eren had wanted from him.

"Fine. I will deal with this mess."

The clone took another glance at the Holy Priestess before leaving the room. He was still taken aback by the information he had received. Just thirty seconds... It was all it took to bring down a goddess.

The clone had the same questions that Eren had. However, he didn't have a place to question it. He was not even a real person. He could be destroyed with a single thought of Eren.

His existence was only meant to help Eren. Although it was a sad existence where he had to listen to everything his master told him to do, he couldn't do anything about it.

Within an hour of the Clone's departure, a meeting was called. The meeting was attended by the Ministers loyal to the Holy Emperor, as well as the Generals.

The Holy Emperor, who was played by the clone, was sitting on the throne to lord over the meeting.

All the Ministers were wondering what this meeting was about. They had a feeling that it had something to do with the attack of the Necromancer.

A few of them even wondered if there were other traitors amidst them which the Holy Emperor wanted to kill like last time.

"The Holy Church is destroyed," the clone started the meeting with the explosive news. "The Necromancer had managed to harm the core of the Holy Church. I just received the news that all the Holy Priests have lost their strength."

"What?"

"They lost their strength?"

Almost all those in attendance stood up from their seats in shock. They didn't know that the strength of the Holy Church depended on some source. However, the Holy Emperor was saying it personally. They had no reason to doubt his words.

"As you might have heard, I went to meet the Holy Priestess to talk about our future plans for actions. However, what I found there was nothing short of a disaster."

"The blessing of the goddess is lost forever. The Holy Priestess also suffered the backlash of the loss of blessings, and died."

"As of this moment, all branches of the Holy Church are useless for the war that is to come. If anything, they might be targets of the Necromancers since they still have been hoarding a lot of treasures."

"In their current weak states, they are like sitting ducks for the enemies. Henceforth, I am forced to make a hard decision."

The Ministers earnestly heard Eren's words, their expressions growing darker with each passing second.

Although they had already felt that something was wrong with the disappearance of the protective barrier, the reality proved to be much worse.

The Necromancers had succeeded in destroying the Holy Church, which was their biggest enemy. Even if the Royal Family was strong, were they alone enough?

"I want you to do two things," Eren commanded his men. "The first is that you must conquer all Holy Church Branches!"

"Bring all their treasures to me before they fall into the hands of enemies. Take the Priests into protective custody! As they have lost their strength, they won't be a problem for the Royal Guards."

"And secondly, you must keep it a secret from the ordinary people that the Holy Church has fallen, at least for the time being. So while taking control of the branches, you have to be more careful than ever."

The Ministers looked at each other's faces after listening to the Holy Emperor's commands. It was easy to complete his first demand, if everything he said was true. However, it was much harder to keep it a secret.

As the barrier protecting the city had disappeared, it was clear that people were going to be suspicious.

"If you can't even complete these two instructions, then tell me right now." Eren could see the concerns on their faces. Still, he wasn't going to let them hesitate.

As he spoke, his fingers gently brushed against the sword that was standing with the support of his throne.

He made it look like it was an accident as the sword fell on the ground, making a clunking sound.

"My bad..." He picked up the sword, gently brushing his finger against the blade.

The Ministers gulped down heavily, not forgetting that it was the same sword which had drank the blood of thousands of royal guards not long ago.

"How can we disappoint you! We will definitely make it happen!" The Ministers quickly exclaimed, hastily running out of the meeting to complete the instructions of the Emperor.

After everyone left, only the clone was left behind, lost in his own thoughts.

"Someone said rightly. Fear is the greatest motivator." Shaking his head, he kept the sword next to him and closed his eyes, finally having some moments of peace.

He wasn't sure how long this peace was going to last. No matter how best these ministers tried, it was true that these things couldn't be kept secret for long.
