The close-fitting armor concealed her body curves, but the slightly exposed skin at the joints still showed her charm as a woman.
With such good looks, even in the Church of Joy, she is one of the best.
It's just that the believers educated by the Order Sect are all like Ashley. Even when they are unconscious, their faces are expressionless, like a piece of wood.

Just looking at the panel, this high-level cultist named Luna is already much stronger than Leni, not to mention that she also possesses a lot of abilities that look powerful.
If we confront her head-on, let alone killing her instantly, even escaping from her would be a luxury.
To be able to get the opportunity to eat her without any effort, it really takes...
Thank you again, Archbishop Kakaris!
Besides, I have to thank her for taking the blame for harming the White Cavalry. But...
"What's wrong, Master? Don't you want me to eat him?" Miss Shikoti noticed Leo's hesitation: "Or are you unable to do it?"
"Well, it's not that I don't want it, but... there is another option."
Leo pinched his eyebrows and felt that he was at a crossroads in his life again.
This is not because he is too soft-hearted.
These guys can kill innocent living sacrifices for the sake of merit, so Leo will naturally have no psychological burden in killing them in order to survive.
He was just thinking...
Now they are at the edge of the Forbidden Forest. Should he and Shikoti follow Kakasis and escape from the encirclement of the White Cavalry?
And if he didn't run away, and let Shikoti assimilate the female knight, he could disguise himself as a squire and blend into the White Cavalry, and follow the Order to a... well, at least an Orthodox country.
These are two completely different options.
Perhaps it also corresponds to a completely different destinies.
After a few seconds, he laughed at himself and said to Miss Scotti, "Eat her."
After careful consideration, Leo only had a few minutes left to remain invisible. If he escaped from the encirclement and was discovered by Kakaris, he would really fall back into the den of thieves...
Hiding in the forbidden area was a helpless choice, and there was also the risk of being discovered. Thinking carefully, lurking in the Order Sect became the best option.
As for killing this female knight, there is no need to hesitate.
The White Knights of the Church of Order had already taught him a lesson.
This world is crazy and these churches are crazy.
Innocent people can be sacrificed and slaughtered at any time, simply because they have no power. So they are always on the sacrificial side of the scale.
Perhaps there are still some people in this world who are kind and merciful, but that is by no means necessary for survival.
There is no point in begging for salvation from others.
If you want to survive, you have to grow up as quickly as possible and take power into your own hands.
In that case, there is a powerful bad woman right in front of you, so why not eat her?
"Either do nothing, or do it completely. Don't expect fate to favor you, rely on yourself... strangle her throat."
The mucus wrapped around Luna Schiller, and a low moan sounded in the forbidden forest...
Chapter 41: Winterhold
"Are you still adapting to your new body?"
"Thank you for your concern, master. I have adapted to it." Shikoti, who had transformed into the appearance of Luna Schiller, said seriously.
"That's good." Leo rode side by side with her and looked at the heads hanging on the saddle with a wry smile.
He doesn't know how to ride, but fortunately Pegasus is a spirit and anyone who supports order can control it.
Leo clenched his fists, and a golden light flowed from the palm of his hand to his whole body.
The "Order Prayer" I learned from Ashley came in handy at this moment.
With this power, he can disguise himself as Luna's attendant and avoid being discovered.
From Luna's memory, Leo learned about the Church of Order and even the political system on the continent of Castile.
The general idea was similar to what the avatar Tina told him, except for some extra details.
The political system of this continent is very similar to that of medieval Europe in his original world. To put it bluntly, it is similar to the feudal system of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period in the East, except that there is an additional church that believes in gods.
About a thousand years ago, the Fire Knight Riley Insigne, who believed in the God of Fire, unified the human race, established the Dawn Empire in the center of the continent, made the Church of Fire the state religion, and became the first emperor and pope.
Of course, the God of Fire here is not the god who controls fire in Leo's inherent concept, but another mysterious power that is equal to the origin of life.
The Church of Fire calls their deity the Deity of the First Fire.
But the Castilian continent is vast, and the Dawn Empire happens to be built in the center of the continent, surrounded by enemies on all sides.
In order to resist foreign enemies, namely succubus, trolls, dragons and other creatures known as the dark races, Riley Insigne divided the eight corners of the empire among his eight knights, who were the first hereditary dukes of the Dawn Empire.
The eight dukes believed in the eight righteous gods under the First Fire respectively. They returned to their fiefdoms with their power, guarding the eight directions and expanding their territory.
Time flies and a thousand years have passed.
There are only five left of the original eight dukes. One of them even abandoned his faith and chose to convert to the mechanical sect in the eastern part of the Dawn Empire, saying that flesh and blood are weak and machines can ascend...
The northern border of the empire where Leo is now is the fiefdom, or territory, of Duke Telsk, who believes in the God of Order among the five dukes.
The Tersk Territory and even the entire Dawn Empire practiced a strict divine nobility system, where power was granted by the church, starting from the duke and decreasing in rank to the knight.
Knight is also the lowest level of noble title in the empire and has no hereditary rights.
Most of the White Cavalry are nobles of this class.
The knight's squires were not considered nobles, but only the knight's private servants, and were not recorded in the records. This gave Leo room to maneuver and he did not have to worry about his role being exposed.
Thinking of this, Leo stretched lazily: "Well, there shouldn't be any omissions. Besides, this time Miss Shikoti ate Luna Schiller, which gave me an unexpected surprise..."
The female knight held the reins and tilted her head slightly: "Master, shall we go back now?" "Well, it's about time to go back." Saint Frey covered her mouth and nose and fanned her hands in disgust: "The smell of blood here is too strong."
"Yes, Saint Lady." Viscount Vera Schiller knelt on one knee: "I will call the knights back now."
"What a pity, Kakaris got away again this time..." The Saint's face was calm, and there was no regret in her tone: "I didn't expect this guy to be so cautious. Even when he was sure to win, he still used a puppet to represent himself."
When the real Kakaris escaped, Saint Frey immediately interrogated the "Kakaris" they captured.
It was then that they realized that the target they had captured was just a puppet.
"Saint, there is no need to blame yourself. More than half of the troops of the Joy Sect have been wiped out by us. Only Kakaris escaped. He can't cause any trouble." Vera comforted.
"..." The saint did not speak, but just looked into the distance, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Howl... Ugh..."
The horn sounded, and the order to assemble spread throughout the Forbidden Forest.
In less than five minutes, the White Knights scattered in the Forbidden Forest gathered at the altar, ready to go.
Leo and Miss Shikoti were among them.
Vera Schiller pulled the reins, stepped out in front of the formation, and whipped the horse whip: "Check the personnel by team!"
"All members of the west team are here."
"All members of the second team on the west side are here!"
"North side team five is here!"
"The four teams on the east side are all here!"
Amidst the energetic shouts, Miss Shikoti raised her hand: "Report, the second team on the east side, all members except me are not here!"
Her voice was not loud, but it instantly cooled the originally excited and lively atmosphere of the White Cavalry.
Vera pulled the reins and came in front of her, examining her sister. "What's going on? Can we contact them?"
“No, there is no response…” Shikoti shook her head.
Behind the two of them, Leo lowered his head and hid his face.
Of course they couldn't respond, because the white knights were now reunited in Miss Shikoti's belly...if Miss Shikoti had this organ.
"Well..." Vera waved her finger at the knights, "Go to the east and see if anything has happened."
"Yes!"
The White Cavalry started moving again, but this little episode did not affect the mood of the crowd. Or rather, the crowd's attention was completely attracted by another thing -
"Next you will have to head north to Winterhold to meet up with Marquis Logan."
Saint Frey stood in the center of the altar and spoke calmly.
Just a few words caused an uproar among the White Cavalry.
Even Vera's eyes were filled with doubt. She remembered that the goal of this mission was only to eliminate the Cult of Joy, and there was no mention of rushing to Winterhold.
The White Knights whispered.
"Marquis Logan?"
"Marquis Logan, Logan Telsk, the eldest son of Duke Telsk and the first heir..."
"Nonsense! Of course I know that Marquis Logan is the heir of Duke Telsk. But what does this have to do with us? We are the White Cavalry under the command of the Pope. Why should we go to join him?"
"And why are you going to Winterhold?"
"Where is Winterhold?"
"Go north from here, along the Winter River, for about a hundred kilometers, you will reach the northernmost supply point inside the Marian Wall, a fortified city. I've been there before. There's a large plain below Winterburg, very beautiful..."
"Isn't that close to the front line?"
"Damn it, didn't we say we were going to the front before we set out? These heads haven't been sent back yet, they will stink if they are hung on the horses..."
"Have you ever thought about why you want to go to Winterhold?"
"Why?"
"How would I know?"
"idiot……"
The White Knights were chatting noisily, and Vera and the Saint had no intention of stopping them.
It was obvious that although these soldiers were dissatisfied and had doubts, they had no intention of disobeying orders under the guidance of order.
It is better to open up than to block. The Saint listened to their quarrel calmly. After the knights had vented their anger, she slowly spoke: "I just received a secret letter from the Archbishop. The situation has changed. The war between Tersk and the foreign races has started ahead of schedule."
"This holy war that has lasted for thousands of years has begun again."
What the hell? Three huge question marks appeared on Leo's forehead.
Chapter 42 Expedition
Three huge question marks appeared on Leo's forehead.
No way, I've just prepared to infiltrate your Order Sect... and you're planning to take me to the battlefield?
At this moment, Leo felt a sense of unreality and absurdity.
The White Cavalry, who had just received the imperial edict, shared the same feeling as him.
