The cardinal is the right hand and the loyal follower of an angel. Cardinals wore white priest dress with gold outline. They also have a high tier holy staff as a high tier priest. Cardinals can use high tier holy magic like [HOLY HEAL] which is big area heal effect and [REVIVAL] most used revive fallen soldier in a battle.
Cardinal Noir Brisky, the youngest priest who wore the title of cardinal.
He recieved a letter through spatial magic. He was in his room reading a holy scripture to learn more advance holy magics. As a follower of Life he is loyal and respects the creation of Life. He despise those people who destroys them, and even though he follows Life he is in love with the angel of Bounty. But due to one of the rules between the angels to never have a relationship with the humans, he decided to devote his life to follow the one who created him and let him know the most beatiful woman he has ever seen in his life.
After reading the letter, Cardinal Noir went out of his room. He picked up his staff and went to the main hall where the entrance is located. He opened the door and saw the noble and the two other kids with him.
He looked at the noble and pull out the letter from his pocket.
"As a noble, you know that it's kind of rude to use Spatial magic in the church? You should have given the letter properly."
Elliot went down in his knees, his right hand on his chest and the left at the back. He apologized and told the cardinal about what happened. The other two also mimic Elliot's gesture.
"I am very sorry for not sending this letter properly. But we have an urgent matter on our hands, and we want to ask for an advice from you cardinal and also from the angel of life."
The cardine went into thinking. He saw how serious the three about this and looked at Arriane. He saw bruises and how weak she is. He got curious and invited the three inside.
"Before we go to see his majesty, I want to know first what happened to her. It's about her right?"
Grim hurriedly stood up and shouted,
"Y-yes! Please help us!"

The cardinal saw how the two guys wanted to protect Arriane. He smiled and listened to their story at his room.
"I see." The cardinal sighed and got a serious face. His aura is leaking because of how frustrated and angry he is because of what happened to the girl. He stood up and looked at the kids, most especially Arriane.
"As the right hand and the Cardinal, the church is willing to help you, Arriane. We will punish Hans Leumi for his indecent and horrible acts. Arriane, the church will help you in your living and studies and as for your plans as a Holy Knight, that would be judged by his majesty, so please wait here until I call you."
He went out of his room and walked towards the altar. He prayed for the angel's presence and he answered. A white pillar of light burst to the altar and as the light faded, a handsome or you can also say beautiful being is in front of cardinal Noir. The being has a white hair but looked so young. His skin is smooth and as pale as snow. His eyes looked deep that it can see thru someone's soul.
That being is Life itself.
Life looked at his follower and asked,
"I heard you and your story. Have you investigated the truth about it?"
"Yes, your majesty." Cardinal Noir replied.
"I have used my magic to sense whether they are telling a lie." He continued.
"I see, an unpure wanted to be a holy knight..." Life paused or a moment and laughed.
"Hahahaha! I wanted to see the child. Bring them to me."
Cardinal Noir asked a knight nearby to fetch the three.
When they arrived, the three of them went on to their knees. Life asked them to be at ease and they stood back up. Life paused again for a moment and stared at Arriane, he felt how pure the child is even though she got defiled physically. Because Life can see the soul, he saw how loyal and determined the child is to him. It moved him, and went forward to pat her head.
"I see, Arriane Jeanne Leumi, I will heal you back and give back your dignity. Never lose it again and never lose your will to serve the holy."
As Arriane heard that, she began hugging Life and burst into tears, not realizing how Grim and Elliot panicked of what she did but at the same time they felt relieved. The cardinal just smiled. It was a warm and full of kindness scene.
Life went back to heaven and the three thanked the cardinal. As soon as the three of them went out of the church, the cardinal commanded some soldiers to arrest Hans Leumi. Arriane was told to grabbed her important things, as she will be starting to attend the same school Elliot is while she will be living in a dorm. The cardinal, as her guardian, has already asked someone to talk to the school's chairman. Tomorrow is the day where Arriane will move to the city's central.
As the three of them walked together to Arriane's house, Arriane is still crying because of how happy and lucky she is. Grim and Elliot helped her packed her things. Elliot used his [UNLIMITED SPACE] to put her bags in. Since Grim and the two will be headed to a different location, because Grim lived at Whiteshore forest while Arriane will now be living at the dorm with Elliot, they said goodbye with each other and went home to rest.
