Agatha knew that Bishop Ivan's life had neared its end many years ago—beneath those tightly wrapped bandages, there was hardly any flesh and blood left. What kept him standing here was not only the miracle bestowed by Bartok but also a tenacious soul.
Very few knew what exactly had happened to the bishop's body. Even Agatha, as a guardian, only knew of an "accident" that had occurred many, many years ago. Bishop Ivan never discussed the true nature of that "accident" with anyone, including in her presence.
Naturally, Agatha wouldn't actively probe into this secret.
Bishop Ivan's thoughts were clearly very heavy. After a long silence, he suddenly said, "We are facing a crisis."
"Yes, Bishop Ivan," Agatha nodded, "I will do my utmost to uncover the truth and destroy the conspiracies of those heretics."
