"It seems you haven't read the report I sent you two days ago, Sir." Mister Secretary stated, looking at his superior's expression. His guess hit the mark.
"I wrote a detailed report on how the Tang Empire could have an upper hand against the Divine Church. Their important key is not the two Legend Ranks that accompanied Lady Zhang, but their assassin squads. They have an elite assassin that hunted down the elite of the Divine Church's elite. From the information I get, the Divine Church failed to kill a single assassin in the war."
An empire had assassin squads were not something new, but it was a surprise if every single assassination was a success. The Divine Church was not just nobody, they were an elite faction that had gone through many wars to spread their teaching and conquer the other worlds. They should have a method to fight against the assassin, but the fact that they failed to kill a single assassin was a surprise, a shocking revelation.
