They recognized their feelings, but the knight had been reincarnated as a fox cub

Fate understood that the other party was now determined and did not say anything further.

Now Reed feels like he is about to die, as if the only thing keeping him alive is the fire of revenge.

Whether it was his mother turning into a monster or his father dying on the battlefield, they were both inextricably linked to the cultists. He poured all his grief and indignation toward the cultists.

Fate shook his head.

This young man did not become a knight because he wanted to be a knight, but because he wanted revenge.

A person with such a bad character and impure motives will be confused after becoming a knight, but now the only motivation that keeps him alive is revenge, so Fate does not intend to say anything else.

People always have to have a purpose in life, no matter what that purpose is.

As long as this ill-fated child can have a goal to live for, I would not ask for anything more.

"Or, you live in the church these days?"

Reed shook his head and declined Fate's proposal. The cowardly boy in the past gradually changed after witnessing the death of his mother and learning the news of his father's death.

"I want to use this money to go to a bigger city and enroll in the Knight Academy there." Lid said firmly.

Losing your comfort zone, experiencing pain, and naturally growing.

Boys should indeed go out and gain experience, and at this moment, Reed probably won't listen to anyone's dissuasion.

He lost his home and everything, and his fate changed from then on.

All Fate could do was to tell the child some of his own experiences and teach him how to avoid being cheated.

"You, aren't you going back?"

"No." Reed's little body trembled, but he still refused.

Fate knew that Reed probably didn't want to go back to that sad place. He was afraid that the scene would bring back nostalgic memories and that he would be unable to control his sadness if he returned to the place where he once lived with his mother. His heart would soften and he wouldn't want to leave.

Therefore, he did not go to the court to ask for his mother's remains, as he knew it was impossible to get them.

As for the truth about his mother's strange disease and the cultist who killed his father, he will find out one by one.

So he must become a knight. Now he is too weak and has nothing. In the empire, only by becoming a knight can he have some say.

At dawn, Reed left the town where he had lived for more than ten years.

Fate, who had not slept for a day and a night, did not feel sleepy. Thinking about the series of causes and consequences, he always felt that he had overlooked something.

In other words, this cult attack seemed a bit incoherent, with too many unclear points.

First of all, there are cultists in every country, but due to some historical reasons, their main focus has always been the Holy Orchid Kingdom. The biological diversity of cultists in the empire is far less than that in the kingdom, especially after the cult forces entrenched in the kingdom were uprooted by him, they have been in a slump and have not been seen doing anything big for a long time.

The attack by cultists that wiped out an entire army is definitely not a small matter. It is right to conceal the news in order to prevent the people from panicking, but why does the Inquisition seem to not take it seriously? ?

And this virus that can turn humans into monsters, why do only a few people get it, and the Inquisition still hasn't come to a conclusion?

Logically speaking, when such a strange disease occurs, the Inquisition should send professionals to conduct research and investigation. According to Reed's statement, the Inquisition did not take any relevant action at all.

Of course, it is also possible that the Inquisition had not yet realized the threat of this strange disease and thought that the virus did not have the ability to spread and infect the plague, so it was not a big problem and could be put aside for the time being. It is also possible that the Inquisition had already begun an investigation but had not made it public.

In any case, he was just a passerby and had no right to ask or know what the Tribunal was planning.

That's all...

Fate felt his hands were a little weak and sighed softly.

Be it punishing cultists or controlling viral plagues, these things are beyond his ability now, and he has no power to manage them.

Leave everything to the Inquisition, to our descendants, and to Alins.

I can't be the head of the family forever, so I have to let go of everything. After all, the future belongs to them.

Fate believed that his proud apprentices would be able to handle the matter and give justice to the deceased.

Fate returned to the church with a heavy heart. There were not many people in the church today, which was natural. A terrorist attack by monsters had just happened and people were in a panic. No one was sure if there were other monsters hiding in the town, so they all hid at home and dared not come out.

Chapter 47: 46~Jade Soft Nine Frost

"Mr. Fate, what happened outside just now?" Rowling, who had just returned from outside the city, returned to the church. She was lucky enough that the disaster happened just as she was out of the city.

"There was some disturbance, probably related to the cultists." Fate answered simply, sitting on a bench with his hands folded.

"Riot? Cultists?" Rowling was stunned as she held the tool kit she had just bought. These two words had never been associated with this peaceful marginal city.

"Is anyone hurt?"

"Well, several houses collapsed in the center of town."

“…Is it that serious?”

"It's useless for you to worry about this. These are not our business. Just leave them to the Knights of the Inquisition."

"Just come back and stay in the church. The city is not safe right now. There may be monsters and evil cultists lurking around."

The riots took place in the town centre and did not reach the church.

After hearing about this, Rowling hurried to the statue, clasped her hands together and prayed devoutly.

"Your Excellency, Grand Knight Commander, please comfort the sad souls and make the temple free from suffering..."

"............." Fate, leaning on the sword, turned his head silently and looked at Rowling.

Stop praying, stop praying. I'm sitting here. What's the point of praying to the statue?

But that's just how people are.

Some people worship God not because they truly believe in Him, but because they are seeking spiritual sustenance.

"Mr. Fate, have you just come back from the town center?" The observant Rowling noticed that Fate's armor was a little torn and there were some cracks on his sword, as if he had just fought with someone.

"Yeah." Fate nodded.

"You, fought with those monsters?"

"Ah."

"Are you hurt?"

Fate shook his head.

In other words, he was pushed back a few steps by the monster's strength, but he was not seriously injured.

After moving his neck, Fate discovered that the transformation after being baptized by the blood of the demon fox was not all bad. For example, the trauma he suffered in the battle with the Demon Dragon disappeared, and he didn't know whether it was repaired by the blood of the demon fox.

"I'm fine." Seeing Rowling's look of disbelief, Fate repeated it again.

As soon as he finished speaking, Fate felt a reflex pain and subconsciously grabbed his right arm.

"Are you really okay?" This time, Rowling gave him a rather suspicious look.

"Mr. Fate, take off the armor on your right hand and show it to me."

"............" Fate moved slowly and took off the armor on his right hand, revealing a smooth and flawless arm.

After checking it over and over again and making sure that there was nothing unusual, Rowling put it down with peace of mind.

"If you feel uncomfortable, be sure to tell me. As a nun, I know a little about medicine."

"Yeah." Fate nodded.

Rowling went inside the church. After all, as a nun, she was usually very busy. The godfather was often away from home and the guards were often slacking off. Only a nun like her could handle all the big and small matters in the church.

I don’t know if it was Rowling’s illusion, but she always felt that Fate’s arms were too thin and white for a boy.

After watching Rowling walk away, Fate silently shifted his gaze to his arm.

Bright patterns were faintly visible on his arm. It was a giant snow-white fox with nine tails burning with cherry-red flames. Its eyes seemed to be spewing sparks, as if it were alive.

one-one-one-one-one-one

Jiuzhou, Banxianzhou, Qingqiu Tianyue Peak.

On the top of the dome, there stands a majestic, magnificent, golden and dazzling pavilion that pierces the sky like the sky.

The intricately carved patterns and the carved beams and painted pillars make even those who don’t understand Kyushu-style architecture feel a sense of art and dignity.

The eaves are carved with lifelike, snow-white, elegant jade-white foxes. The palace is made entirely of glazed wood and is impervious to water and fire. It can stand for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

The rain poured down in torrents, hitting the ancient eaves with a crisp sound, and occasionally a loud thunder roared across the sky.

The two maids standing outside the hall closed their umbrellas, shook off the rain on the fox ears, wrung the wet ends of their skirts, came to the front of the hall, and bowed to the white fox woman guarding the hall.

"Mr. Wu Wei, the clan's court meeting is about to begin. Could you please inform Her Majesty the Goddess?"

"No need." The white fox girl with shoulder-length hair had three red marks like cat whiskers on both sides of her cheeks. She had no extra expression on her face and shook her head to refuse before she even finished listening to what the two said.

"This........." The two maids looked embarrassed. "Master Wuwei, is Her Majesty the Goddess feeling unwell?"

"how?"

"Her Majesty the Goddess has not attended the court for half a year. Both the royal family and the elders are very worried about whether Her Majesty the Goddess is in poor health..."

"I explained it very clearly last time. Her Majesty the Goddess is currently in seclusion practicing. She won't see anyone and doesn't want to be disturbed by anything." The white fox girl spoke each word clearly.

What kind of secluded practice could allow a goddess to disappear from sight for half a year?

The two fox maids looked at each other in bewilderment. The strength of the goddess was well known to everyone in the Nine-tailed Fox clan. It was no exaggeration to say that she had reached the upper limit of this world. How could she further practice?

The white fox girl naturally knew this very well, or rather, she knew it too well.

After following the goddess for so many years, it would be all in vain if she still hasn't figured out some of her behavioral habits.

Saying that he was practicing in seclusion was just an excuse to the outside world. The white fox girl thought that it was probably because her own goddess didn't want to see anyone and was too lazy to attend the court meeting, so she made up an excuse to stay at home and not see anyone.

In the eyes of the goddess in her own family, the contents of the court meetings were nothing more than trivial matters in the life of the country. If she didn't force herself to stay awake, she would fall asleep. However, as a goddess and the clan leader, she had to go.

But this time it was a little abnormal. She had been resting for almost half a year and had stayed at home for half a year without going out. Although it was a bit rude to think so, the white fox girl suspected that there were spider webs on the goddess' body.

Although it is not uncommon for the goddess to be lazy and slack off, this time it took too long, right?

Based on the white fox girl's understanding of the goddess, this time it's probably not just a simple attempt to slack off, there must be other hidden secrets.

For example, she is in a bad mood, or she has her period and is in a bad mood.

Ouch........

The white fox girl held her forehead and quickly stopped thinking.

Don’t think about it anymore, lest the goddess reads it again. Then you won’t have any good juice to drink.

Just when the two maids saw that their persuasion was futile and had no choice but to leave, the door of the hall creaked open.

A childish voice that sounded like the sound of nature or the fragrance of orchids in a valley echoed throughout the hall. The voice was soft, but everyone could hear it.

"Stay."

Drowned by the captivating and charming sound, the three people present were dazed for a moment. The two maids seemed to be under a spell and stopped moving. Their eyes were blurred and their cheeks flushed.

The white fox girl looked into the hall in surprise and quickly knelt on one knee. The two maids were a little slow and also knelt down in greeting.

"Greetings to the exiled celestial maiden, Her Majesty Yurou Jiushuang!"

Chapter 48: 47~The Goddess Who Loves to Slack Off

The carved wooden doors on both sides were affected by an external force and opened from both sides with a creaking sound from the inside out.

The two fox maids, who were immersed in the charming voice, came back to their senses from the breathtaking spiritual upheaval, hurriedly adjusted their court dresses, and looked towards the inner room respectfully.

Even the cynical white fox next to him took a few steps back, put on his half-raised wooden clogs, stood on his heels and lowered his forehead slightly.

Yurou Jiushuang, the goddess of the nine-tailed fox clan and the patriarch of the Yurou clan, is the one with the highest status and the noblest bloodline in the entire fox clan. She is also the actual leader of the fox clan today. She is the only nine-tailed fox in the clan today, with unfathomable strength and no rivals in the entire continent.

The upper limit of her strength is still unknown, because in the thousands of years since her birth, no opponent has appeared who can force her to use her full strength, and the same is true for the other gods.

Charm is one of the nine-tailed fox's signature abilities. Rumor has it that Yu Rou Jiu Shuang's strength is so great that just her words can cause great distress to her enemies, creating a charming effect on both men and women.

The two young maids who had just started their careers experienced what it meant to "fall into the land of tenderness".

Kneeling on one knee with their heads slightly lowered, they were all equally curious about what this legendary goddess looked like.

A bright light appeared in the dark room, and suddenly, a snow-white jade fox as big as a pavilion howled to the sky, two balls of cherry-red flames burned in her eyes, and nine huge cherry-white tails swayed behind her.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew, and nine balls of fox fire were like bright stones burning in the long night, lighting up the magnificent hall. They also reflected the snow-white hair of the fox demon, changing the color of the sky and the earth.
