Miss Witch, it's time to clean up the entries
Chapter 247 Randall's Test and [Death Warning]
Chapter 247 Randall's Test and [Death Warning] (Revised Version)
Red Maple Collar.
A great territory located in the western part of the empire.
The walls here are lower than those in the border territories because they are located within the empire and are not attacked or invaded by monsters.
The temperature in autumn is almost dropping to below zero. Of course, compared to the north which is covered with ice and snow all year round, the four seasons here are still distinct.
Inside the high walls is a large red maple forest. When the wind blows, it looks like waves of fire rolling, which is beautiful beyond words.
This place was once called Zewei Territory, but later it became famous for its red maples, so it was renamed Red Maple Territory.
The maple leaves remain red from September to December. Every late autumn, many nobles from the royal capital come to visit.
In addition to the red maple forest, there is also the Temple of Grace, one of the three major churches of the Holy See.
The Temple of Grace is guarded by Cardinal Constantine of the Holy See, whose status is second only to Pope Randall and he is one of the four cardinals of the Holy See.
At the same time, Archbishop Constantine is also the only bishop serving in the Guardian Bureau, responsible for the spiritual enlightenment of all witches.
Every year, the royal capital would regularly send a group of witches to the Temple of Grace to receive spiritual enlightenment. Only witches who had been baptized would be sent to the Guardian Bureau for further training.
Deep in the maple forest, the Temple of Grace stands, its spire towering and connecting with the sky.
When the first rays of sunlight penetrated the clouds, golden light spread to every corner of the temple, illuminating the delicate textures of the sculptures.
Entering the temple, a chilling chill washed over me. The vast stained-glass windows shimmered brightly in the sunlight, casting a shimmering shadow across the cold marble floor. Before the altar, a few eternal lamps flickered with a faint glow, adding a touch of warmth to this sacred sanctuary.
In the center of the temple, rows of heavy wooden benches are covered with embroidered cushions for believers to kneel and pray.
An ascetic was quietly reciting scriptures nearby. His deep and powerful voice echoed in the empty hall, interweaving with the distant bells into a solemn hymn.
There are huge stone pillars standing around it, wrapped with exquisite reliefs depicting stories from the scriptures.
Between these stone pillars, a few beams of light shine through the tall arched windows, as if they were a gift from Tiger, bringing vitality to this quiet world.
The believers, dressed in simple robes and with pious expressions on their faces, either kneeled or stood, reciting prayers in a low voice. Their eyes moved between the statues, stained windows and scriptures, and every time they lowered their heads and raised their heads, it was a baptism of the soul.
Dorothy came to the maple forest through the portal. She was holding her daughter Alexander in her left hand, and Alexander was holding a fire demon with a distorted expression, as if she was dragging a dog that wanted to escape.
The fire demon Cruz could not enter the temple, so he could only wait with Alexander 100 meters away from the temple.
Alexander liked this maple forest very much and started playing in it.
As a nanny, although Cruise hated this childish behavior, he had to accompany her.
For example, jumping on dead leaves, climbing the tallest trees, or jumping down from trees without getting tired.
Children's thinking always makes Cruise feel childish and unpredictable. They always like to do the same thing over and over again, and they will giggle because of it.
Cruise thought that as an immature dragon, Alexander should have his own persistence and style, but he was wrong.
Just as he always liked to dive into the water when he was a ball of fire, Alexander also liked to play all kinds of childish tricks when he was a child.
Dorothy walked into the Temple of Grace and quietly came to the ascetic without disturbing him.
The believers only raised their heads slightly, and when they saw the woman in the cloak, they lowered their heads again and continued their prayers.
Ince Hall and Byrne Hall are different. Although they are brothers, Ince Hall took the path of a believer, while Byrne Hall took the path of a knight.
The ascetic monk Ince Hall, with purple hair and purple eyes, could not conceal his aristocratic temperament even though he was dressed simply. He stopped chanting and looked back at Dorothy.
"Dorothy, you've grown up."
"Did I bother you?"
Dorothy asked.
"No, child, come with me."
Ince Hall took Dorothy to the rest area outside the temple and said in a reminiscent tone,
"We haven't seen each other in about 20 years."
"Uncle, your memory is wrong. I am not yet 20 years old."
Dorothy said lightly.
Ince Hall laughed.
"Haha, look, uncle is still as humorous as before."
"Uncle, I hope you can go back to the capital with me."
Dorothy stated her purpose directly, and Ince Hall snapped his fingers. The servants immediately came forward, put a gorgeous coat on his plain clothes, and put on the earl's ribbon and medal.
"Did the little emperor remember me and want me to go back to receive the award?"
Ince Hall looked completely different from his image in the temple. He raised his eyebrows and spoke in a lively tone.
Dorothy shook her head. "It's about the family curse."
"Oh, that thing."
Ince Hall took off the ribbon, threw it to the servant, frowned,
"If you want me to go back and accept the family's judgment, I would have accepted it many years ago. I no longer owe the Hall family anything. Let me continue to practice in the temple. Worldly affairs have nothing to do with me."
Dorothy's pretty brows knitted slightly.
When Ince Hall saw the expression of his beautiful niece, he burst out laughing like a naughty old boy.
"Haha, Dorothy is still as funny as ever. Do you remember when you were three years old and you wanted to play with fireball?"
"I remember you burned down a castle to teach me the dangers of fire."
Dorothy remembers it vividly.
"Yeah, isn't that fun?"
Ince Hall smiled and reached out his hand, wanting to ruffle Dorothy's hair, but Dorothy dodged.
"It's so sad. I'm as proud of you as your father is."
Ince Hall shook his head helplessly. "If only one of my 21 children could be as outstanding as you, I would be at peace."
"Uncle, you don't have that many children."
Dorothy reminded.
Ince Hall looked even more sad. "Can you please not expose my fantasy? If my wife Mona were still alive, she would have given birth to 21 children for me."
"I'm very sorry about that."
"Dorothy, has anyone ever told you that life can be more interesting if you learn to be humorous?"
"Magic is fun enough as it is, and magic doesn't need humor, just precision."
Dorothy retorted.
Ince Hall sighed. "Well, look how conservative Byrne has made you."
Dorothy didn't think she was old-fashioned. Most of the time, her ideas were very advanced, but compared to the creative Ince Hall, perhaps she was indeed a little old-fashioned.
"Ince."
A strange voice came from behind. Dorothy turned around and saw Cardinal Constantine walking towards them.
The bishop has an extremely handsome face. In terms of appearance alone, he is no less handsome than Li En and Randall.
He looked very young, as if time had left no trace on him, but everyone knew that it was impossible for someone who could become a bishop to be so young.
If judged by worldly standards, he could not be more than thirty years old.
And Constantine has witnessed three emperors of the Holy Empire.
As he approached, the wind happened to blow, and the red maple forest made sparse sounds. For a moment, Dorothy felt that countless voices entered her mind, but she knew clearly that it was an illusion.
She thought she might have been a little nervous lately.
A beautiful girl of the same age as Dorothy jumped out from behind Constantine's wide red robe.
The girl had rare colorful hair, two deep dimples when she smiled, and was wearing a plain white dress. When she saw Dorothy, she took the initiative to wink at her.
She is Dorothy's childhood sweetheart, Emma Burke, and like Augustus, they spent part of their childhood together.
Emma also possesses a very high talent for theology and has already entered the ranks of silver believers.
"have a guest?"
Constantine asked.
"Oh, it's my niece, Dorothy. Dorothy, this is Bishop Constantine, my teacher. Emma needs no introduction, right?"
Ince Hall said with a smile.
Emma stepped forward and took Dorothy's hand.
"My dear Dorothy, when will you give me my book back?"
Dorothy knew that Emma was talking about the "Fairy Tale Book". This book was a gift from Emma's grandfather. Emma lent it to Dorothy so that she could study the mysteries in it.
Emma knew that Dorothy was a magic researcher, so she had never intended to ask for it back. But when she saw Dorothy today, she suddenly remembered it.
Emma is the little princess of the Bock family, one of the seven creed families. Her grandfather loves her so much that he spoils her and even gives her gifts directly.
Of course, she never dared to tell her grandfather that the Fairy Tale Book was in Dorothy's hands.
Dorothy originally didn't want to keep the fairy tale book for herself, but she considered that the book contained too many of Lee En's secrets and could not return it to Emma Burke for the time being.
"Sorry, I haven't finished my research yet."
Dorothy said.
"I knew you would be like this. Never mind. I don't have any use for it anyway."
As the princess of the Bock family, Emma does not need to study magic or fight. She feels that she will probably never need to use the "Fairy Tale Book" in her life. Unless her grandfather forces her to marry, she will borrow the "Fairy Tale Book" to escape.
She was unwilling to marry any other man except her teacher Constantine.
Unfortunately, her teacher Constantine seemed to have no interest in her at all.
This made Emma very distressed, and she couldn't wait to talk to Dorothy.
They haven't seen each other for three years. Although they communicated through letters during this period, it was completely different from meeting in person, lying in bed, wearing pajamas, wrapped in quilts, and exchanging thoughts. It was more pleasant.
Emma is already looking forward to the evening gathering with her girlfriends.
Constantine sat down next to Ince Hall.
He picked up the teapot on the table, poured four cups of tea, and handed them to Ince Hall and Dorothy respectively.
Emma took a cup for herself without hesitation.
The uncle and nephew took the teacup, and Constantine said slowly,
"I had a dream last night about a pilgrimage. Although the true appearance of the God Tiger did not appear in the dream, I received many revelations. You are all believers. Would you like to listen to them?"
"Teacher, please speak."
Ince Hall was much more honest in front of Constantine. He no longer told those boring jokes and his expression was serious, like a devout student.
Out of politeness, Dorothy decided to listen to the cardinal finish his dream before leaving with her uncle.
However, when Constantine finished telling her dream, Dorothy had completely forgotten the purpose of her visit.
Like Ince Hall and Emma, she looked forward to Constantine continuing to preach.
All three of them seemed like the most devout students, full of a thirst for theological knowledge.
……
Yalong City.
Guardian Bureau.
Although Li En had obtained some information about the witches from Cameron and Ellie, because Ophelia had been deliberately alienating and avoiding them recently, and Dorothy was not in the royal capital, he was unable to influence the final list of witches who would go on the expedition. This list was entirely decided by Ophelia and submitted to Augustus.
Li En finally got the list from Augulas.
However, this did not have much impact on Li En's plan. As long as the witches reached the Blue Dragon Court, they would go out of control. The only one who could save them was himself, so it didn't matter who he sent.
The craftsmen of the empire were also busy building warships and equipment in order to set out on the expedition within the time set by the emperor.
Ever since Li En implicitly rejected the marriage between the two families last time, Augulas did not force him to participate in the nobles' ball, but took him to visit the warship manufacturing.
Everything was going according to plan and all was peaceful in the capital. The only problem was that Dorothy had not yet returned from Red Maple.
This made Li En feel uneasy.
Unfortunately, the Witch Invitation Stone cannot replace a mobile phone, so real-time communication is impossible and one can only attend tower meetings regularly.
Otherwise, Li En could still ask about Dorothy's situation through the invitation stone on his neck.
Now the only thing I can do is go to Hongfengling in person to check the situation.
If you take the magic train, it will take about 4 days to go there and back, just in time for the expedition.
If you ride on the back of a dragon, you can reach Hongfeng Territory within one day, which can be regarded as an air express.
Li En planned to ask Alexander to accompany him to find Dorothy.
When he was about to discuss it with his daughter, he saw the sunbird standing on the windowsill.
The sunbird dropped the letter in its beak and flew away.
In this era, information could only be transmitted through letters, and the means of communication were too backward.
Fortunately, witches like Dorothy can use owls, crows, pigeons, sunbirds and other aerial messengers to send letters, which greatly shortens the time it takes to deliver letters.
Li En knew that this must be a letter from Dorothy because he smelled Dorothy's scent on the envelope.
He opened the envelope and took out the letter inside.
Li En began to read.
Li En:
I've arrived in Red Maple Territory. The scenery here is incredibly beautiful. I've also met my great Earl Boins and my friend Emma, who's as interesting as ever. Emma is the true owner of the Fairy Tale Book, but don't worry, I've convinced her to let it remain with me. We listened to Bishop Constantine's sermon together in the temple, which was incredibly fulfilling and spiritually enlightening. After entering the rank of Special Believer, I can sense the instability of my soul, but this instability has improved here. I need to study here for a while, and I hope that fellow Special Believers like you will come to the Temple of Grace; you too will surely be inspired.
Looking forward to your arrival. 】
Dorothy seemed to have completely forgotten that she was going to bring Ince Hall back, nor did she remember that she had promised Auguras to go to the Azure Dragon Court.
Moreover, she did not mention in the letter that they had agreed to get engaged in the Blue Dragon Courtyard.
Li En rubbed his brows, feeling that there was something strange about this matter.
Could it be that Dorothy, like Catherine, had part of her memory taken away?
Originally, he also wanted to go to Hongfeng Territory to bring her back, but after seeing this letter, Li En suddenly became alert.
Could it be a trap?
If the legendary witch could control or delete part of her memory, what a difficult enemy she would be?
I hope I am overthinking it.
Bishop Constantine, this name seems unfamiliar, maybe you can ask Fia.
Out of caution, Li En decided to ask Fia first.
Fia has been staying in the tower all this time because she wants to work with the people in the association to create a complete set of imperial magic cards.
She lives in the room next to Li En, which was Dorothy's former study. Now Fiona uses it as a laboratory and bedroom.
After knocking on the door, Li En asked,
"Fia, can I come in?"
"If you have any reason to disturb me."
Fia said casually.
Li En pushed open the door and walked in.
The study was in a mess, with the table covered with various ritual items, drawings, and discarded silver cards.
Even Fia cannot make a card successfully every time.
She pushed up her glasses and looked at Li En.
"Did you encounter any problems?"
Fia has become accustomed to Li En treating her as an encyclopedia, and occasionally a blood bag.
However, she often used Li En as a test subject and would often record Li En's physical condition.
The two parties are equally beneficial and benefit from each other, forming a good sustainable ecological relationship.
"I wonder who Constantine is?"
Li En and Feiya didn't need to beat around the bush and asked directly.
Feiya put down the card in her hand, her thick eyelashes trembling slightly. "If you are talking about His Excellency Constantine, one of the four cardinals of the Holy See, then I don't know much. Ophelia may know more than me."
"Ophelia?"
Li En looked at Feiya in confusion.
Feiya nodded.
"Yes, His Excellency Constantine is the bishop who has long-standing ties with the Guardian Bureau. All witches in the Guardian Bureau undergo his enlightenment, hence his nickname, the Enlightener. He was also the former fiancé of Ophelia, the Director of the Guardian Bureau. Perhaps because neither of them had any desire to marry, they eventually amicably called off their engagement."
The magical creatures in the study heard the gossip and opened their eyes.
"Oh, I know that Constantine. He's over two hundred years old. If Ophelia wasn't an old woman, she would definitely not want to marry him."
A tattered magic book peeked out from the bookshelf. "If you want to know more about him, why don't you look me up? I'm a Vatican history textbook."
"Stop joking. You're just a wild magician recording unofficial history. You might as well look at me. I'm the Holy See's canon. Constantine is just an insignificant cardinal. What's there worth recording?"
"Oh? Insignificant? Then you underestimate Constantine. He is the second most famous golden follower after Randall."
"But he became a Golden Disciple at the age of 201. He has been a Golden Disciple longer than others. This is not something to brag about."
The two books that came to life because of Dorothy's previous magical leakage began to argue about this issue.
Although the other magical creatures did not know Constantine, they also joined the discussion.
"Who is Ophelia?"
"Who is Constantine?"
"Are they getting married?"
"Haven't you heard? The engagement is cancelled."
Fia felt that they were too noisy, so she threw a halo of intelligence reduction at them. The magical creatures instantly became quiet and no longer made any disruptive noises.
Li En looked at them sympathetically and said to Feiya, "These are Dorothy's pets after all. Aren't you worried that their owner will be unhappy?"
"I'll get them back to normal when I'm gone."
Fia assured.
"I suspect Dorothy may have been influenced by this Bishop Constantine. She wrote to ask me to go to Red Maple Territory. There might be some conspiracy or trap behind this."
Li En placed the letter on the table. "Since you have doubts, then don't go. Are you still worried that the legendary witch will encounter an accident? She is not Catherine."
Fia said lightly.
Sophie, who was making frost magic cards, also nodded slightly. She had fought with Dorothy and knew her strength best.
I'm afraid that even Pope Randall can't hurt Dorothy.
But Li En always felt that Archbishop Constantine was no simple person. Every witch had been enlightened by him. Did this mean that he was the one who brainwashed all the experimental witches? And this kind of work would not be detected even when clearing the entries.
Could it be that he controls some kind of gift, something like the gift that can completely change a person's consciousness?
If this is a gift that does not cause direct harm but distorts consciousness and memory, can it bypass the witch's self-protection system and affect the witch?
"President."
Cameron's voice interrupted Li En's thoughts.
"The director has called a meeting for all the witches. Ellie, um, and Miss Sophie, I all have to leave for a while."
"All the witches? Something big happened at the Guardian Bureau?"
Lee En asked.
"No, it's a collective meeting held every six months. All registered witches must participate."
Cameron didn't call Fia because she was not a registered witch.
Fia is now a wild witch, and may be the only wild witch.
At least that's what Cameron thinks.
Sophie hadn't attended this kind of meeting for a long time, and she looked at Li En nervously.
"It's okay, Cameron and Ellie will accompany you. If there are any special circumstances, you can summon the angels to prove that you are not a heretic."
Li En instructed.
Sophie nodded to show that she understood.
The three witches left together.
Only Li En and Fia were left in the tower.
But they did not go to the temple, but were attracted by the Red Maple Festival in Red Maple Territory.
Feiya put away the cards on the table and looked at Li En.
"Don't you think it's a coincidence?"
"What coincidence?"
Lee En asked.
"Dorothy, Sophie, Ellie and Cameron, all the witches are not with you now."
Fia said.
"Are you saying that someone deliberately sent them away, or chose the perfect time to attack me?"
As soon as Li En finished speaking, he heard footsteps outside the tower.
I smelled the scent of candles at the tip of my nose.
He walked to the windowsill and saw the believers gathered under the tower, looking at Fia with admiration.
"It seems you are right. Someone wanted to see me alone and deliberately sent away all the witches around me, but he seemed to have ignored you."
"I don't actually have much fighting power."
Fia said truthfully.
"Don't be so modest. You are a witch after all."
Perhaps because Li En changed history, Archbishop Ethan Taylor, who did not die in the last expedition, is still alive. He led the Knights of the Vatican to surround the entire tower.
The lineup was even more magnificent than the one when Li En was escorted from Yusofa to the Supreme Court.
An archbishop, two priests, five priests and five pastors, plus a knightly order of 2.
Except for the clergy who sat in carriages with the emblem of the Church, the accompanying knights were all wearing armor and cloaks. There was an inverted black heart symbol on the blue cloak, indicating that they were members of the Knights of the Black Heart.
This knightly order, like the Pole Star Knights, is specifically responsible for capturing heretics.
They rode tall horses equipped with armor, held sharp swords in their hands, and looked solemn.
Elizabeth looked worried. She actually didn't want to get involved in this matter, but the Pope gave the order himself.
Elizabeth always felt that after leaving the Vatican, she had an inexplicable ominous premonition.
Looking up at the handsome blond-haired, blue-eyed young lord, Elizabeth's uneasy feeling became even stronger.
It was as if the way he looked at himself was filled with pity.
Damn, if only I could find an excuse to leave the team.
Elizabeth thought so and looked at Priest Vincent beside her.
Vincent was very excited. He belonged to the right wing of the Vatican and was jealous of Li En's talent and hoped to suppress his growth.
"Simon Moria, someone has reported you for illegally possessing a gift and suspected of embezzling imperial property. Please come with us."
In the Holy Empire, every gift requires a document issued by the empire.
Those without documents are considered illegal occupation.
In fact, this is to enable those in power to better control the situation of gifts.
Most of the gifts are controlled by the Pope, the Emperor, the nobles and the lords. For someone like Li En, the Eye of the Future is legitimate and inherited. Although it may be coveted, it is legal.
But [Split Seal], [Canvas], and [Blue Dragon Whip] are not legal because he did not apply for the issuance of documents.
In this case, every report will be successful.
But who would report themselves?
Dorothy was the only one who truly knew that she held so many gifts, but she would never betray herself.
Unless something happens to her.
"I'm sorry, but I don't know what the Honorable Ethan Taylor is talking about."
Li En judged that the so-called illegal possession of the gift was just a random excuse to bring him back to the Vatican. Randall might have set a trap and was waiting for him to fall into it.
In other words, with the appearance of Ethan Taylor, the conspiracy against him had already begun.
Because these people all have red words "Death Warning" on their heads.
[Death Warning] Your life has entered the countdown. After death, your body will turn into a hell crack. Unknown hell creatures will use you as an exit to enter this world.
If you look closely, you'll find that the [Death Warning] time above each person's head is different. Some have only a few minutes left, while others have half an hour left.
Ethan Taylor should be the one with the longest time left, and the time of death may be related to their own physical condition.
Randall has given himself a bunch of time bombs. Every time someone dies, a creature from hell will be summoned.
Randall is playing a trick on himself.
He sent away all the witches who could have witnessed this, leaving only himself to face the Knights.
If he was unwilling to go with the Knights, the Knights would self-destruct on the spot. Not only would a bunch of hellish creatures appear to disgust him, but after their death, the Holy See would also put all the blame on him.
I will definitely be labeled a heretic again and be investigated.
For a serious crime like directly killing bishops, priests and destroying the Knights, Randall could execute them personally without even notifying the emperor.
If he was willing to return to the Vatican with the Knights, the situation would only become more dangerous.
Given Randall's personality, the dragon might have already ambushed him and would never give him a chance to breathe.
Randall alone is troublesome enough, and there is also the [Bewitching Mouth] behind him.
It seems that he probably knows that the [Seal of Splitting], [Whip of Azure Dragon], and [Eye of the Future] are on him.
The content of his deal with [Mouth of Bewitching] is to collect the complete body parts of Mohan, and 10 gifts: [Fairy Tale Book], [Ear of Wisdom], [Ear of Ignorance], [Eye of the Past], [Eye of the Future], [Hand of God], [Ripper], [Whip of the Azure Dragon], [House of Happiness], and [Door].
In his opinion, he already had three gifts in his hands and he really couldn't just leave them alone.
Randall did adjust the timing perfectly. He launched the attack when high-level fighters like Dorothy, Alexander, Sophie, and Ellie were not around, giving Ethan Taylor's side a clear advantage.
It’s a pity that Randall didn’t know his own cards and cleared the entries.
No one can resolve this conspiracy at the moment.
Only you can solve it.
All he had to do was clear the negative attributes on Ethan Taylor and the knights, not only could he save the lives of these Vatican lackeys, but he could also resolve his own crisis.
This is almost the optimal solution.
But... now that he has figured it out to this point, how could Randall ignore his own trump card?
Or, is this group of people here just to test my cards?
Randall had long suspected that he had the ability to clean up entries, so he set up such a trap. If he really saved them, Randall would be able to confirm his guess.
This possibility cannot be ruled out, because Randall can dismiss the old wise man and investigate Sophie and Ellie.
He will find that the witches around him are not easy to lose control.
But the more likely possibility is that Randall saw himself summoning angels twice and wanted to try whether he could summon angels again to resolve the situation.
After Li En figured this out, he decided to take advantage of the situation.
Since you want to see the angel, I'll let you see it.
Appropriately exposing the cards in your hand is just to hide deeper cards.
"Simon Moria, your excuses are useless. Please come back with us immediately. If we find out it's a misunderstanding, we will naturally let you go."
Ethan Taylor tilted his head, and the knights wanted to rush into Dorothy's tower to capture him.
"Wait, who said I'm unwilling to cooperate with the investigation? At least allow me to say goodbye to my friends."
Li En said with a smile.
Ethan Taylor couldn't help but feel suspicious when he saw Li En's fearless look, but he didn't let the knights move forward.
This is Dorothy's tower after all.
We still have to give face to the legendary witch, even if she is not in the tower now.
"You want to summon an angel in the downtown area?"
Fia asked.
When she saw Ethan Taylor and the Knights, she saw through everything, including Randall's intention to test Li En.
"Do you want to witness it?"
Li En extended his hand and invited Feiya.
Fia nodded, "Okay."
Fia has always been curious about the fact that Li En can summon angels at any time.
Li En took Fia down the tower, which surprised Ethan Taylor and others.
Archbishop Ethan Taylor was already very puzzled by the fact that Priest Fia did not die at sea.
Now that he saw the close relationship between the two, Ethan Taylor's suspicions deepened.
Have these two been having an affair for a long time?
"High Priest Fia."
The two priests, along with several priests, pastors, and members of the Knights, saluted Fia respectfully.
Fia's safe return from the sea won her the respect of most people in the Vatican. Almost everyone thought that Fia would die at sea, but she survived, and even the knight who escorted her was fine, which proved that Fia was blessed by the true God.
When she submitted her resignation, many people from the Vatican came to persuade her, including her teacher, Archbishop Karl, and Elizabeth and others. Unfortunately, she was resolute and chose to leave.
This makes many people feel regretful.
"I'm no longer a priest."
Fia said lightly.
"High Priest Elizabeth, we meet again."
Li En looked at Elizabeth with a smile, feeling that she was the high priestess with whom he had the closest affinity, besides Fia.
"Yes, I actually don't want to appear in front of you so often. It will arouse the jealousy of too many women."
Elizabeth felt that nothing good would happen whenever she met Li En, and she just wanted to stay away from this controversial figure.
Although she had a good impression of Li En before, this good impression has gradually turned into admiration tinged with fear.
After all, the young man in front of him is already one of the few special believers in the Holy See.
So she unconsciously used honorifics when she spoke.
Considering that Elizabeth is Dorothy's friend, Li En decided to deal with her entry first to prevent her from becoming an innocent human bomb.
"Elizabeth, get in the carriage and let's catch up."
Li En invited.
Elizabeth looked at Fia, and for some reason, she seemed to be signaling to the hostess.
Fia nodded slightly, and Elizabeth got into the carriage.
This carriage was originally used to imprison Li En, so there was no one in it.
Ethan Taylor naturally didn't want to ride in the same car with Li En, but this gave Li En room to maneuver.
Elizabeth sat next to Li En. Li En suddenly moved closer, startling Elizabeth so much that she leaned her whole body against the wall of the car.
Although Elizabeth was not a pure girl, she was still so nervous that her heart beat faster when faced with such a sudden attack.
"What? Is this the first time you've seen me so closely?"
Lee En asked.
Elizabeth's cheeks flushed slightly. "Sir Li En, what are you going to do?"
"save you."
Lee En said, grabbing Elizabeth's entry.
[Inspiration Blocked] Your inspiration is blocked, making it impossible to discover the newly added red entries on your body.
[Entry Points +100] (Total Points 6001100)
Although Elizabeth didn't know what Li En had done, she immediately felt the new red entry [Death Warning].
Elizabeth turned pale, thinking that Li En had cast a curse on her.
"you you."
Just as she was about to resist, she felt the [Death Warning] entry shatter.
[Entry Points +2000] (Total Points 6003100)
"never mind."
Li En stepped back.
Elizabeth wanted to ask what had happened, but she didn't dare to ask.
The feeling the man in front of her gave her was completely different from before, full of deadly temptation and danger.
After about five minutes of silence, Elizabeth finally figured out the whole story.
The Pope already doubted her loyalty to the Holy See, so he sent her here on this mission.
It's possible that she is not the only one who has negative entries. Perhaps the entire team, except for the Archbishop, has become a hidden bomb.
The purpose of doing all this is to get rid of Lien Moriah.
The Pope decided to take action against Lee En Moriah.
I'm just cannon fodder involved.
But, how did Li En save himself just now? How did he remove the curse and negative status?
Elizabeth only felt Li En touch her shoulder lightly, and felt nothing else.
Li En's current hand speed allows him to clear the target's entries without being seen by the target.
So he neither knocked Elizabeth out nor used anesthetic on her.
"I carry a curse-removing stone called the Angel Stone. I saw you weren't feeling well, so I used the stone to cleanse you."
Li En held up a piece of mermaid crystal and said something nonsense.
In short, Elizabeth had never seen the mermaid crystal, so she naturally didn't know whether what Li En said was true.
“Is this also a gift?”
Elizabeth really believed what Li En said because she couldn't think of a better explanation.
It's impossible that Li En is the reincarnation of the God of Tiger, and he can take away the red items on her body by touching her shoulder?
"No, it's a gift from an angel."
Li En sat back in his original position. Elizabeth felt the oppressive feeling disappear instantly and she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Will you help the Knights then? They might be in the same boat as me."
Elizabeth asked hesitantly, although she knew that her question was a bit unreasonable.
The Vatican team originally came to capture Li En, but instead Li En rescued them.
“Why should I help them?”
"Just... like you're helping me."
Elizabeth said.
"They are not like you."
