The next day at dawn, when the sunlight shone upon the land, the entire supernatural community of the world was thoroughly shaken.
The Dark Council's forces were completely annihilated, all perishing within The Holy See.
The Holy See itself suffered a blow unprecedented for a millennium, as the entire institution was destroyed, leaving behind only a pitiful hundred or so members of the once-renowned Expeditionary Army, apart from those guarding the distant branches.
The Army Commander of the Expeditionary Army fell in battle, four red-robed Archbishops were killed in action, and more than a dozen red-robed Bishops perished under the Dark Council's frenzied counterattack.
And the Pope, this supremely exalted leader, was said to have been gravely injured and no longer wielded his formidable deterrence.
The entire foundation of The Holy See, built up over countless years, was depleted overnight, and those in the know said that it was all due to a youth, a lad from Huaxia.
