You don't even want to call me godfather

"Um... sorry, I'm a little slow to react."

As if he understood what Koshei meant, Azazel looked at Raphael and forced a smile.

"Mr. Cascade," just as the others were still arguing over these trivial matters, Viviana, who was already ready, came to Koshei and said to him, "Since we have arrived in Rutland, perhaps we should part ways here."

"Well, you go ahead," Koshe nodded and responded politely, "Thank you again for your previous assistance. We may need to reorganize a little. Let's meet again at the International Conference, Miss Viviana."

Viviana nodded slightly to show her respect, and then she and the Knight of the Cross left the team first.

Glancing at Azazel and Raphael who were in an awkward atmosphere, Koshe took the opportunity to remove the bag of arrows from the side of the horse and tied it behind his waistband.

"what happened?"

Ou Ya had also tied up his horse at this time, and seeing that the atmosphere on Azazel's side seemed to be wrong, he came over to ask.

"Azazel still hasn't recovered from the discomfort of leaving home," Koshei tightened the straps of the bag and explained, "It's just a minor quarrel between young people. It's nothing serious."

"Is that so..." Ou Ya was not stupid, he could see that there was something going on between the two kids, but since Koshe had given him a way out, he could only follow it, "It seems that I was worrying too much."

"Koshe," At this time, Iris had also finished preparing. She and Ben Hong walked towards the others and said to him, "We are done here."

Koshei understood, he looked at Ou Ya and said, "Then we should go in too."

"Well, let's go."

Ou Ya rubbed Raphael's head with one hand, stroked Azazel's shoulder with the other, pushed him, and took the two children, following Koshei and walked towards the border. Ben Hong still followed silently behind without saying a word.

"Name, place of origin, identity."

A temporary registration office was set up at the border, with two Sakotas sitting there, registering the information of incoming people.

"Koshei Cascade, the ruler of Syracuse, a representative of the International Conference," Koshei added, looking at the black-haired Sakota who was registering information in front of him, "Iris, an accompanying person at the conference."

"iris?"

Upon hearing this, the Sakta paused with his pen. He raised his head and looked at Koshe and Iris in confusion, as if he didn't believe this was a name.

"Yes, Iris," Kochei emphasized, "it's just a cultural difference in Syracuse."

"Hmm..." After the Sakota finished the registration with some doubt, he took a pen and pointed at the two people, "Show us the weapons you are carrying."

Koshe frowned slightly, as he didn't have any legal certificate for his pistol.

So he carefully pulled out the two daggers from inside his coat, spread out his hands, and showed them to the Sakota.

Iris did the same, pulling out the dagger and holding it in her hand.

But the Sakota just took a quick look and wrote something on the registration form.

"Okay, go ahead," he turned a page on the registration form, and then he ignored Koshei and Iris and shouted to the back, "Next one."

Koshe put away the knife, seeming a little bit unbelievable that Rutland's entry inspection mechanism would be so perfunctory that there was not even a basic body search.

"Azazel, executor of Section 2 of the Notary Office's Operations Department."

Azazel followed closely behind Koshei, and when it was his turn, he also reported his information as usual and showed his ID.

"Aza?" But after hearing Azazel's name, the Sakota looked up in surprise and looked at him, "How did you get to Class 2, kid?"

"An Shibai?" Obviously, they knew each other. Seeing such a Sakota face, Azazel was also surprised. "Aren't you in charge of the city's security? Why are you here as an inspector?"

"Well, we are all executors after all. Don't you know some things?" Seeing that he was an acquaintance, An Shibai also spoke freely, "From helping a little girl rescue a cat trapped in a tree to carrying out a transnational manhunt, is there anything that we executors can't do?"

"So...you were transferred here to do this job?"

Azazel seemed to be thankful that he was not transferred to this boring position, but was transferred to do the work of a messenger of all nations, and even got to know Koshei as a friend.

"Alas, what can we do?" An Shibai shrugged. He glanced at Ou Ya and others behind him and said, "Forget it, let's go quickly. There is no need for the executor to register. I will do as little as possible, so as to avoid the constant interference from the higher-ups."

"Thank you very much."

Azazel didn't hesitate either. He and several others entered the border one after another.

"By the way, since you have been transferred to be messengers of all nations, the accommodation and transportation issues of people from other countries will be left to you to handle."

Finally, An Shibai added.

"Okay, got it."

Azazel waved his hand to show that he understood.

"An Shibai, he was my former classmate in the military academy," Azazel explained when he saw that Koshe seemed a little confused, "At that time, his grades were always good, but after he entered the notary office, he started to slack off for some reason, even when doing the immigration registration."

"I see."

Koshe silently kept this person in mind.

People often say that the more you pay attention, the longer you live.

In such a completely unfamiliar country, every bit of information you can obtain may be useful in the future.

Chapter 37 Kule

"he came."

In an underground warehouse hidden in a church, three fallen angels were packing some things into a suitcase. One of the male fallen angels looked up at the ground and suddenly said.

"...Huh? What?"

Although another female fallen angel was performing the actions on her hands, she seemed a little absent-minded and took a long time to react and asked.

"That man, he's here," the male Sakota noticed the woman's distraction and reminded her again, "You know what I'm talking about, Kule."

"Ah..." Kuler came back to her senses. She buckled up the suitcase that was already full of 'goods' and put it under the table, where there were dozens of full suitcases. She seemed to have thought of something and asked, "Speaking of which, how did you know about the arrival of 'that person', Abraham?"

"'Adam'," Abraham paused and then said, "'Adam' told me that the man will enter the city of Rutland at this time, including the hotel and room number where he will stay."

"Why... does 'Adam' know so many things, even things that haven't happened yet..." Kule frowned slightly when she heard this. She looked at Abraham with a questioning tone, "Also, Hexi told me that each of you has seen 'Adam's' face, but why am I the only one who has not been qualified to meet him so far?"

"This……"

Kule's tricky question stumped Abraham, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"Everyone has some secrets, Kule, secrets that cannot be told to others," just when Abraham was embarrassed, another woman sitting at the table with a ring device in her hand spoke up to help him out, "Since you chose to join this organization, it means that you also have goals that you have to complete, but didn't you never mention it to us?"

"..." Kule was speechless. She looked at the careless woman, the commander of the fallen angels, and the woman who was undoubtedly the closest to Adam. After a long while, she said, "But you all are deliberately hiding everything about Adam. If you really regard me as a companion, you shouldn't target me like this, Bo Ye."

"We never targeted you, Kule." Hearing this, Bo Ye put down the ring device in her hand. She stood up and looked Kule in the eye. "This is Adam's order. For us, it is also an irresistible order. I hope you can understand."

"Alright, alright. We are all in the same boat. Why make the atmosphere so tense?" Seeing that the tension between the two women was getting stronger, Abel Khan had no choice but to interrupt the topic. "By the way, where did that guy Hexi go this time?"

"As for him, he will probably be his masked vigilante again," Bo Ye sat down again, his tone seemed to carry some resentment towards He Xi, "Really, as a member of the organization, he is still doing the work of eliminating harm for the people. However, this time the action against 'that person' does not really require his presence."

"Ah, I am really free as a non-fallen angel," Abraham sighed, "If I had known that killing people with explosives would not make me a fallen angel, I would probably be able to wander around like Hexi now."

"The use of explosives to commit crimes is also the method that Professor Adam taught Hexi," Bo Ye picked up the ring device on the table. She looked at the chandelier above her head through the space in the ring and said, "Before meeting Adam, we had all become fallen angels. This is an unchangeable fact. Hexi has not fallen yet. This method can also bring him a lot of convenience to the organization. There is nothing to complain about."

"Okay, there shouldn't be anything for me to do next, right?" While the two were talking about Hexi, Kule had already finished loading the goods. She stood at the door and glanced at the two of them. "If there's nothing else, I'll go and carry out the mission first."

Bo Yi did not say anything. As the commander, she just waved her hand and let Kule carry out her "mission".

Only after Kule left the underground warehouse did Abraham breathe a sigh of relief.

"Regarding Kuler... I really don't know what her expression will be when she finds out about Adam's identity."

"That day will come, but not now." Bo Ye placed the ring-shaped device on the table and slid it in front of Abraham. She sat on a chair with her hands behind her head. "Take it. It's something your sister brought back. You are qualified to use it."

Abraham stopped what he was doing, picked up the ring-shaped device, and looked at the things left by his sister Guier in silence.

"'Adam' once promised you that he would help you get your sister back, but now the plan has failed because of Ou Ya's team of executors. Aren't you dissatisfied with 'Adam's' command?"

Looking at Abraham who was reminded of his past, Bo Yi asked him tentatively out of loyalty to Adam.

"No," Abraham clenched the ring device. There was no dissatisfaction in his eyes, but a more determined attitude. "He gave me hope."

……

On Koshe's side, Ou Ya and others took him and Iris to a hotel that was relatively close to the notary office.

"Godfather, before the International Conference begins, you and Miss Iris will stay here first."

Ou Ya said after sending Koshei and Iris to the hotel front desk.

"Aren't you guys coming together?"

Koshe saw that Ou Ya and the others seemed to be planning to leave, so he asked.

"We need to go back to the notary office first, submit the task, and then follow the next instructions," Ou Ya explained. He stood by the front desk and nodded to the staff. "The owner of this hotel is my friend, so I won't charge you any fees. If you have any needs, please feel free to ask. When the International Conference is held, someone from the Pope will lead you there."

"Is that so? I see." Looking at Azazel and Raphael behind Ou Ya, Koshe smiled friendly, "Then we won't waste your time. See you later."

"Well, the notary office is just around the corner. If there's any emergency, you can find us there," Ou Ya nodded, and left with the children. "See you later, Godfather."

When he was about to leave, Azazel couldn't help but turn around and look at Koshe. He seemed a little reluctant, but quickly turned his head back.

While Koshe was communicating with the front desk, no one noticed that Ben Hong also turned his head and looked at Koshe meaningfully, with an indescribable complexity in his eyes.

"Iris, what's wrong?"

Koshe noticed that Iris seemed a little abnormal and asked with concern.

"Just now, that Ben Hong also turned around," Iris said as she watched the figures leaving. "I couldn't read her expression. It was a very complicated emotion."

"Let them solve their own problems. We have no right to interfere." Koshe knew that Ben Hong's identity was suspicious, but he also knew that as an outsider, he had no right to intervene. So he turned to the receptionist and said, "Open two rooms--"

"Get a room!"

Iris suddenly interrupted Koshei and even scared him.

"Well... I mean, being in an unfamiliar environment, maybe it's safest for two people to be together. Besides... I have to ensure your safety at all times."

After noticing her own gaffe, Iris immediately adjusted herself and came up with an impeccable excuse.

"Then... just one room..."

Koshe felt extremely embarrassed and took the room key under the meaningful look of the receptionist.

They were led down to the second floor by the receptionist, who opened the door for them with a spare key.

"If you lose your key or leave it in the room, you can come to the front desk to get a spare key from me," the receptionist said to the two with a smile, trying not to laugh. "I wish you a pleasant stay here."

She just smiled, didn't she? She must have smiled!

At this moment, Koshe really wanted to find a hole to hide in. It was fine if he had endured all the gossip in the family council in Syracuse, but he didn't expect that he would have to face such a thing after coming to Lateran.

"Oh, that's all."

Koshe and Iris entered the room. Fortunately, the front desk clerk still had some conscience and there were at least two beds in the room.

Koshei rushed to the bathroom first. He took off the small crossbow and a bundle of arrows from his waistband and hid them behind the water tank.

"Dong dong dong."

But when he pulled out his pistol and prepared to hide it in the water tank, there was a knock on the door.

"Dong dong dong."

Chapter 38

I am saddened by what people are thinking lately.

Life seeks profit and avoids harm, life is selfish and ruthless, and everyone here has something to strive for.

Similarly, behind every seemingly glamorous person, there may be a past that is too painful to look back on.

They thought they were invincible, but I saw through their lies.

Their short-sightedness is the beginning of their destruction.

A man who looked like a priest stood in the center of the church. He looked up at the statue above his head, and his fingers stroked the cross necklace hanging around his neck.

Recently, more and more people have come to confess.

Every day he listened to people's confessions and their confessions of their sins, and as a priest, he used those unchanging principles to enlighten them.

But he himself knew that the so-called confession of those people was nothing more than some extremely minor faults, while the real sins were buried in their hearts and they were unwilling to speak out.

What exactly did they confess?

"The church is not open yet, please go back."

Suddenly, he heard the sound of the church door being pushed open, and said without turning his head.

"Father Hexi," but the other party didn't seem to listen to him. While he was meditating, a citizen of Sakta came up behind him tremblingly, looking a little nervous, "I... I'm here to confess."
