Naturally while the Adjudicators won the upper hand due to their surprise attack, managing to eliminate most of their priority targets and capturing a lot of suspects, the church didn't just stay still and took it.
Specially because not all the cities were aligned with the Valleris family, there were total of sixteen major border cities which were responsible of keeping the public order in the human territory.
Out of them, with old Ben using his own life as guarantee that the church was playing dirty, nine border cities listened to the call, destroying the branches of the church where it was needed and restraining.
The other six border cities were the ones with the highest influence from the church, including their main cathedral, on the other hand it's not like the whole church was part of the traitors, so once the suspects were secured, a ceasefire was ordered.
