"Are we properly staffed for this?" Gabriel asked.

"Yes, Sir. In fact, that\'s the first problem we solved." Annalise replied politely.

"Great. What about the Sun Disc Project?"

"I\'m afraid that will take time, Sir." Annalised reported with a solemn expression. "Even with the provided materials and enough manpower, the project is too complicated for us to complete quickly. However, we are making steady progress. So far, the foundations for the Sun Disc are 50% done."

"That\'s fine." Gabriel responded, "Our Holy Son expected as much. Still, it would be best if we finish the Sun Dics as soon as we can. The situation on the frontlines isn\'t looking too good after all."

Within the House of Light\'s headquarters, Archbishop Gabriel and his two guards discussed their ongoing projects.

Since Cedric joined them as their Holy Son, he brought nothing but surprises that brought the organization closer and closer to the ultimate goal. They\'re still astonished at how much progress they made towards their goal just because Cedric appeared out of nowhere. Who would\'ve ever thought that he already possessed most of the things they needed?

The new light source was already more than what they were expecting. The feeling of Sunlight returning to their civilization was more than enough for the entire organization to dedicate themselves to him. Yet he didn\'t just do that.

Roughly a month ago, Cedric came to them and revealed two massive projects; he gave the schematics for the Demon Soul Purification Altar and the Sun Disc.

Gabriel could still remember how he reacted when he realized just what their Holy Son intended to do. He couldn\'t keep his mouth shut after seeing the schematics.

The Demon Soul Purification Altar was already a huge thing. The fact that Cedric devised a way to use Sunlight as a tool to filter the remaining corruption on Demon Souls, turning them into pure Essence Souls that are not only safe to consume, but also at least 20% more effective than ordinary Demon Souls.

He even showed them how it works since he brought a working model with him. They personally saw how the purification process worked and also got Acala\'s guarantee.

To say that this was huge would be an understatement. How many Superhumans were there? How many of them craved to become stronger? How many Demon Souls have been circulating around the market? How many people had to endure the foul effects of using Demon Souls during their breakthrough?

Amongst many things, Demon Souls are also used as a currency for goods. With this altar, massive changes are afoot and none were negative for Humanity\'s overall well-being.

And that Sun Disc...dear god that Sun Disc...

That project is the one that Gabriel was really looking forward to completing, because once that thing was built and in operation, even Demon Emperors would hesitate to get close to Azure Terra...hell, they might even claim the rest of the continent, greatly expanding Humanity\'s range of operation.

For now, though, they need patience. The Sun Disc must be kept a private matter for now since it\'s definitely a huge deal. If Demons were to find out what it could do, they wouldn\'t hesitate to use all means necessary to prevent the Sun Disc from being constructed.

Everybody who\'s working on the Sun Disc Project signed an NDA issued by the Acala System herself. Upon signing this NDA, they will be unable to physically, mentally, and spiritually tell anybody about the contents of the project. Not even dying and having their souls searched would defy this restriction. Outside of that, the contract was harmless.

This might be an overkill but Gabriel had no qualms going his far, especially with how important this project was for Humanity\'s sake.

"Have the Bishops and Priests been informed about the announcement soon?" Gabriel asked.

"Yes, they have, Sir," Richard replied. "All of them have been preparing themselves. They\'re just waiting for the arrival of the altars and they will be ready to receive people and supervise the conversion of Demon Soul to Essence Souls."

"Wonderful. We will be using System Delivery for security. Remind them to increase their vigilance too, some corrupt people might target our operations this time. While they won\'t be able to do anything to us physically, they might villainize us to the public eye and that will hinder our mission." Gabriel warned.

"Sir...the Holy Son, wouldn\'t he be able to take care of this? He\'s a 1st Class Army Officer, no?" Richard asked.

"He could, he definitely could." Gabriel agreed wearing a solemn face. "But if we let that happen, what use does he have for us then? Aren\'t we just hired muscle then? No, of course not. We might technically be his followers but we have some form of independence too. We can function with or without him, this is something that our founder clarified to us again and again."

"Besides, this might very well be a test for us." Gabriel added, "Somehow, I have this impression that we\'re still underestimating what our Holy Son could truly do. These projects might be what we have been striving for as a whole, yet he achieved them with a fraction of the time it took us."

"Him letting us supervise these projects is a test to see if we truly have some worth...at least that\'s what I think. It might very well be different from what our Holy Son thinks but it hardly makes a difference."

"We\'re here to support him and provide his needs. So long as we can do that, our Holy Son will prop up the heavens and give us, Humans, a better chance at this war."

"Right now, our Holy Son is still young. He might be wiser than his peers because of his experience and he might be stronger than most, but he still needs time to grow. Unfortunately, things will be more hectic from now on because of the tensions between our races, but that\'s even more reason for us to ensure that we can rise to the occasion."

"With us here, he should be at ease knowing that we can hold down the for until he\'s ready to take his rightful place. That\'s why I won\'t tolerate failure from our side, is that understood?"

"Yes, Sir."

**

Cedric had no idea what Gabriel and his guards were thinking or doing right now. Even if he did, he wouldn\'t have said anything since he would only benefit from the misunderstanding.

Right now, his focus is on increasing his strength. More specifically, he\'s more focused on increasing his comprehension of Concept Laws.

That\'s why he\'s currently at the real Sword Communion Hall.

The Law Communion Sword hung above him as he sat down in the middle of the galactic nebula with his eyes dazed, immersed in complete comprehension of Laws.

Around him, manifestations of heavenly bodies appeared; stars, suns, moons, planets, constellations, cosmic formations, etc. He\'s also surrounded by sharp threads of Sword Energy coming from his Sword Heartseed. You would also see small creatures made of fire dancing around him.

These were the manifestations of his Concept Laws. Cedric did not deliberately create them, they just appeared due to his resonance with Concept Laws.

This isn\'t something that people could just do. Only those with a frightening degree of comprehension and high compatibility with their Concept Laws could achieve this state. This phenomenon is a sign that a person resonates deeply with the Concept of Laws, further increasing the speech at which they comprehend it.

Time within the real Sword Communion Hall was slowed down to a near halt, which was a good thing since Cedric had been spending months in a single sitting here, just completely immersed in comprehending the Laws of Fire, Astral, and Sword.

That said, he couldn\'t possibly remain here forever. Even with his frightening comprehension level, his physical state is still limited. There are only so many ideas he can comprehend within a certain time and once he reaches his full capacity, he needs to validate the ideas by practicing them.

Cedric could do it here, but because of the concentration of Law Energy here, it\'s far too chaotic to validate his comprehension. Therefore, Cedric needs to go out and try them out in the real world. This process takes time and Cedric won\'t return here unless he completely validates everything from his last session.

And just like now, Cedric meditated for an unknown length of time before feeling stuffy. It\'s a sign that he has reached his limit.

Clarity returned to his eyes, followed by a turbid breath. He stood up and looked up at the Law Communion Sword, saying:

"You feel it too, don\'t you?"

"Of course. It\'s been a while, really. But I\'ll admit, I don\'t miss this feeling at all. It would\'ve been better if this didn\'t happen at all because every time it does, many people die." The Law Communion Sword replied with a heavy sigh.

"We can\'t escape this." Cedric mirthlessly smiled, "Anyway, I\'m afraid you won\'t see me for a while. I don\'t plan on dying but...just in case, please consider my proposal earlier."

"...I\'ll think about it."

"Good enough for me." Cedric shrugged. "Anyway, see you later."

Just like that, Cedric left the hall, leaving the Law Communion Sword simmering on its own thoughts.
