How did I become the Lord of Evil Gods?

Chapter 120 Oath (4000 words)
  "Won't you know if you try it?" Breonna looked at her and said, "Very few creators know what the work will look like after it is completed before creating it."

"Especially the extraordinary ones from the Painter Series."

"Indeed." Yun Mu nodded in agreement.

Next time she practices spiritual painting, try using food as a material.

I don’t know what the effect will be, but I’m quite looking forward to it.

"Ahhh."

Is there a painting that can summon infinite cakes?

Feeling the taste bursting into his mouth, Yun Mu thought to himself.

"Okay, let's start training."

After lunch time, Breonna sat casually in the corner of the room and said.

"What are you practicing today?" Yun Mu looked at Elena and asked.

"." After the other party was silent for a while, he looked at her and said, "Have you read the book?"

"I've finished reading it!" she said immediately.

"Very good." After hearing her words, Elena nodded and said, "Then let's practice communication and speaking skills today."

"Your Highness Princess." Elena looked at Breonna and said.

"Huh? What's the matter?" Breonna tilted her head strangely.

"You seem to be very free. Would you like to rehearse the planned scene for the day in advance?" Elena extended her hand to invite.

"Do you want me to be Miss Yun's attendant? Okay." Breonna agreed very simply.

She jumped down from the chair and walked quickly to Yun Mu's side.

"Behave well, Your Highness Princess~" Breonna said in a funny tone.

"Yes, my attendant." Yun Mu rolled his eyes.

After the conversation between the two of them ended, Elena said: "Next, I will play the role of nobles of different statuses, or clergy of the church, to simulate different scenarios."

"You have to judge what you should do based on my identity and the current situation."

“Let’s start with something simple.”

After thinking for a while, Elena said: "Ahem, listen, I am now Bishop Rand of the Dark Night Church in Frostfall City."

"After the night parade and group prayers were over, a large number of nobles stayed in the church to hold a dinner party."

"I walked towards Her Royal Highness the Princess and said"

"Ahem." Elena coughed lightly, reminding the two of them of the important point, and said: "Good evening, Your Highness, Princess. I have long heard that a big shot has come to Frost Bank. I didn't expect that it would be you."

“It is truly an honor for me to be able to come to the dinner to enjoy the honor.”

"It's impossible for Bishop Rand to say that." Breonna waved her hand and complained:

"The church and the royal power are equal in theory, but most clergy believe that the status of the gods is higher than the king. As lambs who follow the gods, they do not need to respect the royal family too much."

"When facing the king, the pope has the same rights and status as the king, while the bishop is the same as the royal nobles."

"So when facing me, it is impossible for Bishop Rand to greet me with words that belittle his own status."

"This is just a simulation, Your Highness Princess." Elena said calmly.

"Please give your answer," she said.

"Well." Listening to the conversation between the two, Yun Mu lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "Can I think that Bishop Rand is setting a trap for me?"

Once her answer contains something like admitting that she has a higher status than Bishop Rand, it is equivalent to a failure.

"You can think so." Elena glanced at Breonna who was snickering aside, and nodded.

"Then I know how to answer."

Yun Mu slowly bent down, stood with his feet one behind the other, then gently picked up the hem of his skirt with his hands and said, "Good evening, Mr. Bishop."

"It's not an honor, it's just a duty."

She specifically emphasized the word duty, implying that the other party did not act in accordance with their duty.

While she was speaking, Breonna beside her looked like a real attendant beside her, lowering her head and remaining silent without saying a word.

Elena looked for the mistakes in Yun Mu with a critical eye, and finally, she nodded with satisfaction.

"Consider you qualified," she said.

"Then the next question."

Time passed quickly, and when Yun Mu came back from his state of concentration, he found that the time had reached around two-thirty in the afternoon.

"It's almost tea time." Brenna yawned.

"." Elena glanced at her, and finally had to sigh and said: "Your Highness, I must remind you that you are almost out of money."

"Ah?" Breonna was stunned when she heard what she said. She said, "How is it possible? Didn't we just earn a large amount of money by depositing money on a credit card?"

Hearing her words, Elena raised her forehead and said: "The gold frost you spend on research every day, as well as the high-end desserts you eat recently, have almost exhausted the activity funds."

"The remaining money must be kept to ensure that other people in the city can withdraw coins from their credit cards at any time. They must not be touched."

"But, but!" Breonna was a little anxious.

Tea time at around two o'clock every afternoon is her source of happiness. If she can't enjoy desserts, what's the point of living?
  "No money means no money." Elena turned her head and avoided Breonna's eyes with a guilty conscience.

"Nothing." She paused for a moment and said, "If Her Royal Highness can cut the research funds by a quarter."

"Damn it, this is your real purpose!" Before she could finish her words, Breonna interrupted: "High-end desserts are very expensive, but aren't you the ones I eat every day? ?”

"How can the cost price be as expensive as the one sold from outside!"

"If you want to cut off a quarter of my research funding, I will never agree!"

"Then one fifth." Elena said.

"Yes, deal!" Breonna agreed decisively after hesitating for a while.

"."

"What are these two doing?"

Yun Mu thought in his heart with questions on his head.

She originally thought that as Her Royal Highness, Breonna would have a lot of money in her hands, but she didn't expect that she could hardly afford the desserts for afternoon tea.

Although it can’t be said that she can’t afford it. It’s just an excuse that Elena came up with to cut down on research funding.

But it does mean that Breonna doesn’t have much money left.

Moreover, the new credit card launched by Frostbite Bank was actually created by her to earn funds for activities.
  "hiss."

Thinking of this, Yun Mu suddenly had the idea to withdraw all the money from the credit card immediately.

"Well, if nothing happens, I will practice painting." She said.

"We just finished practicing, why don't you take a rest?" Breonna said in surprise after hearing her words.

"Diligence is certainly a good thing, but you should also pay attention to rest." Elena also said at this time:
  "After six o'clock in the evening, we still need to meet Mr. Edward and investigate the blood-red mist filling the streets."

"I'm afraid we won't sleep tonight. It's better to conserve more energy." "That's true." Yun Mu nodded.

She didn’t know what she would encounter during the investigation tonight. She went to practice painting and it would also consume her own spirituality.

Although after being promoted to the second level painter, her spirituality can be said to have almost doubled.

But it can't be said to be very durable.

A complex painting like the Jackdaw would not cause her to fall into coma like before, but it would consume most of her spiritual energy, causing her to feel dizzy, dazzled and other symptoms.

And the kind of painting that consumes less spiritual energy does not take much time.

There is no need to rush.

"Please wait a moment, both of you." Elena folded her hands on her abdomen, saluted slightly, and then walked deeper into the room.

After Elena left, Breonna sat at the dining table, looking very happy and humming a tune that Yun Mu had never heard.

"Actually, I asked you to come and have afternoon tea with me for some selfish reasons." After about ten seconds, Breonna stopped humming and looked at Yun Mu.

"When I was in the royal capital, I usually spent afternoon tea with other friends."

“We shared what we like while enjoying the pleasant afternoon sunshine.”

"But since I came to Frostfall City, only Elena has stayed with me."

When she said this, her tone suddenly changed and she said: "Elena is such a rigid guy, and communicating with her is completely different from how I feel when chatting with peers."

"But you trust her very much." Yun Mu whispered.

"." Breonna was stunned for a moment, then nodded awkwardly and said, "Is it that obvious?"

"It's really obvious." Yun Mu complained: "Sometimes it feels like she is your sister."

"Is this how you see it?" Breonna turned her head and curled her hair with her fingers in embarrassment.

"That's right." She seemed to be remembering something and said softly: "I am the third princess of the Frost Kingdom, and Elena's father is the head chef of the royal family's cuisine."

"As long as I can remember, Elena has always been by my side."

"At that time, she would always bring out all kinds of snacks for me, and I would indeed chase her and call her Sister Elena."

"Since when did it become like this?" she said, seemingly troubled.

"Does it feel like there's a pitifully thick barrier between you?" Looking at her look, Yun Mu complained.

"It's not that exaggerated." Breonna rolled her eyes at her.

"So." Yun Mu asked curiously: "Although it's rude to ask, but I'm really curious, as the daughter of the royal chef, why did Elena become a shadow guard?"

"This." Breonna had a distressed expression on her face.

"Uh, I can't just forget it." Yun Mu looked at her expression and said.

"There's nothing that can't be said." Breena waved her hand and said, "I just don't know where to start."

"Yeah." After thinking for a while, she said:

"To put it simply, a mole sneaked into the royal cuisine and tried to poison me and assassinate me. The mole was invited in by the head chef, Elena's father."

"Although it was later discovered that the head chef and the mole were not in the same group, he was still sentenced to at least ten years in prison for being implicated and using his position to recruit people without permission."

"I was still young and ignorant at the time, so I won't tell you what I did specifically." She raised her forehead and said, "In the end, the head chef was spared from the punishment, but was stripped of his status as the head chef of royal cuisine."

"But Elena was arranged to be by my side and started to be trained as a shadow guard."

"I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing. After all, the Shadow Guards are still a profession of selling their lives and killing people."

"Although Elena didn't say it, I still feel very guilty."

"Oh~ I see." Yun Mu nodded, then pointed behind her and said, "How do you know what others think if you don't ask?"

"Huh?" Seeing the direction of her finger, Breonna's muscles instantly froze.

"You, you, you, when did you come here?" She looked at Elena who was standing behind her at some point with her face flushed and asked.

"Just when Her Royal Highness the Princess said that she was young and ignorant," Elena said with a chuckle.

She placed two cups of hot black tea on the dining table, and then took down a plate of freshly baked muffins.

"You don't have to feel guilty. It's all my idiot father's fault." She said after putting down the muffin.

"He was over 50 years old at the time. After being imprisoned for more than ten years, whether he could come out alive was a question."

"I am very grateful that you were willing to speak for him and become a shadow guard to protect you at all times. This is what I expected."

"Being able to protect your peaceful sleeping face every night is an oath that I will never regret in my life."

boom! !

Yun Mu seemed to see something explode.

If this was a two-dimensional world, Breonna's head would have been filled with steam.

"You, you, you, what are you talking about, idiot, there are still people watching!"

"Okay, I'll say it again next time when no one is around."

"Not even when no one is around!"

"why?"

"I, I, I just can't say it anyway!"

"Suck it." Yun Mu looked at the two people in front of him and silently took a sip of black tea.

Ah, this tea is so delicious.

After about half an hour, afternoon tea ended.

Yun Mu returned to Breonna's bedroom and took out the cards containing various painting tools from the lining of his coat.

She still wanted to practice.

However, she will pay attention to the size and try to restore the spirituality to its best condition at night.

"Are you going to draw?"

Brenna did not go to her research room, but lay on the big pink bed in her room.

A pair of little feet wrapped in white stockings kept shaking up and down.

"Yes, at least draw one every day." After hearing Breonna's words, Yun Mu replied.

She poured her spirituality into the card and then dropped the card skillfully on the carpet.

In an instant, a large number of painting tools appeared in front of her.

"Um"

After arranging the drawing board and canvas, Yun Mu looked at the blank painting in front of him and began to think about what he would paint today.

　ps: It’s the first time to update a 4,000-word chapter, and I feel it’s okay.

　　You can give us your feedback, whether a chapter of 2,000 words is better, or a chapter of 4,000 words.

　　The main reason is that there will be no breaks in the middle of writing Four Thousand, and it will not be easy to think about fishing hahaha (embarrassing)
