Holt looked up, and the Dark Messenger said, "Let me ask you this, Holt. Do you want Skermann to be involved in the Bullard Bay wars too?"
"Yes, sir."
The Dark Messenger was infuriated and rebuked, "Tell me why you're causing havoc in Bullard Bay! What are your intentions? I need an honest answer from you!"
Holt hesitated for a moment and replied, "Sir, the citizens of Bullard Bay are faithless. The Church of Holy Illuminati, as a vassal of Light Valley, must incite conflict in the Bullard Bay region to exert our influence. By causing strife here, the people will suffer, and subsequently develop faith. This will ensure Light Valley's eternal legacy."
"Well answered. You know all about Wilbur Penn by now, right?"
"Yes, sir."
"I need you to lure him out. I don't care what you do, but you need to remember that you can't kill him. I need him alive. Do you understand?"
"Don't worry, sir. I will fulfill your orders."
There was a hint of intrigue in Holt's gaze as he spoke. He had thought about ways to conceal his true intentions long ago. However, Light Valley never asked about what happened in Bullard Bay, so he never had a chance to try if his concealment would work.
He gave it a try and it was proven rather effective. Since the Dark Messenger had tacitly approved of his actions in Bullard Bay, he believed that he could continue concealing his true intentions. His goal was to corrupt the minds of the population in Bullard Bay in order to sustain the evil god he worshipped.
The evil god would then provide Holt with more power. Holt believed that one day, he would surpass the Dark Messenger and rule over him. The Church of Holy Illuminati would overpower Light Valley and become the true ruler of the world.
