Is the night devil queen me?

……

The magnificent hall, in order to promote the name of the Holy Light, no matter the walls or the ground, including any gorgeous decorations, are all plated with pure gold, which is very different from the simple church where Leia lives.

In Leia's eyes, these things are all symbols of corruption. After the archbishop was defeated by Lilith, Leia immediately started to rectify this phenomenon in the Church of the Holy Light, but only here, she couldn't move.

Because this place is where the Pope lives, even though they are just a group of old men who are not strong, they have seniority and prestige in it, and they control huge resources in their hands.

"A stench of copper." Leia snorted and continued to walk forward.

……

……

"No."

Above the main hall, the four Popes were wearing luxurious and noble robes, which reflected the light golden luster. They stood in a high position, their wrinkled faces were full of meanness, and they looked at Leia below indifferently. , with a wave of his hand, she rejected her request to mobilize the Templars.

"Four popes, do you know what happened in the Artesia Empire? The people in the branch are very scared. You don't know the concept of the demon army. Why don't you approve it? What's the reason?" Mentally prepared to make things difficult, the tone was very bad.

"Leiya, before asking questions, I think you should reflect on your attitude first. It doesn't matter if you don't respect us old men, but you want to respect the position of the Pope, and you call the Pope directly, and your lord, dignified The Holy Maiden of Light, who has only this kind of education? I am afraid that all believers in the world will be disappointed if I say it." The Pope shouted.

"I'm really sorry, My Lord Pope." The corners of Leia's mouth twitched a few times, "The believers in my church may be in danger of life, and seeing your faces will inevitably make me feel bad."

"It's not your church yet, Leia." The Pope deliberately emphasized the word 'you'.

"Yes, so you have this kind of consciousness, the church is not mine alone, but why do I feel that the Templars belong to you?" Leia countered mercilessly.

"Eloquent girl! Are you insulting the rights given to us by the great Holy Lord!?" A pope blushed angrily.

"How is it possible, why should I insult this right? Maybe I'm insulting you."

"What did you say!?"

"Are you wasting your time here just to annoy us old fellows?" Another pope took a step forward, "You said that the Artesian Empire was threatened by the demon army, but there were reports from various lines According to the information, there is no difference at home and abroad in the Artesia Empire. Just based on the branch’s one-sided words, you want to mobilize the Templars? It’s a joke. What would people think of our church? Just because you are the Holy Maiden of Light, can you act recklessly like this?"

"The Sheng Tianyi, which detects the devil's energy, responded. This is the evidence."

"Maybe it's just that there are demon mice around the branch? There have been such cases in the past."

Leia shook her head and sneered, "In the past, when you went out casually, you would mobilize Templars, including accepting bribes from the empire and sending Templars. Obviously, you have made such a low price. Now I want The transfer is because you are afraid of causing panic and what other people in the mainland will think? Interesting, why didn’t you think so before?”

"Watch your words! Leia!"

"Pay attention to your words! My lords!" Leia said coldly, "You are constantly consuming my patience, and my patience may be reaching a critical point. I will turn a blind eye to your actions Just turn a blind eye, you guys are fine, talk to me about the influence? The reputation of the Holy Light Church, I don't know how bad it is by you!"

"Presumptuous!!!!" The Pope was so angry that his old face twisted, "Are you threatening us!? You ignorant little girl! We won't approve you to mobilize the Templars today! How dare you do anything to us!? See if you have the ability to mobilize yourself!"

Leia frowned tightly, and there was a trace of murderous intent in her pupils.

"What kind of eyes do you have!? Ah? Do you want to rebel! Do you really want to do something!?" The Pope stepped back a few steps, seeing Leia like this, he was inevitably a little scared.

Leia remained silent, and took a step forward.

"Come on! Come on!!!!" A frightened pope yelled.

Whoosh whoosh!

More than a dozen knights in silver armor appeared in an instant. They were extremely vigilant and stood in front of the Pope, pointing their swords at Leia, "Please don't go any further!!!! My Lady!!!!"

Leia's forehead was bulging with blue veins, "You point your sword at me!?"

boom!

A wave of coercion was overwhelming, shaking the armor of the knights trembling. They took a few steps back, their faces covered with sweat, and said, "I'm extremely sorry! Lady Saint! Please don't embarrass us!"

Leia stared at the Pope, the disgust on her face could not be concealed, she took a deep breath, stretched out her hand to grab the blade of a knight, exerted a little force, and the blade instantly shattered.

"!!!!" The knight jumped back in fright, short of breath.

"Hmph!" Leia shook her hand, turned and left.

……

……

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!"

Walking out of the hall, Leia came to a quiet place in the garden, and suddenly started yelling like crazy, grabbing her long pink hair with both hands, her expression was very exaggerated, without any ladylike image.

"Saint... my lord..."

A brown-haired girl in golden armor happened to pass by here, and happened to bump into this scene, and she was so shocked that she dropped the documents in her arms on the ground.

Leia maintained the posture of scratching her long hair. After a few seconds of stunnedness, she stood up straight and straightened her image as quickly as possible. She smiled and said, "Isn't this Sharapova? For a while I haven't seen you."

Leia's expression at this moment did not show any sense of disobedience, as if the scene that just happened did not exist.

"Ah, yes, I haven't seen you for a while, my lord." Sharapova thought it was better to pretend not to see her.

Sharapova, Fist of the Holy Judgment, Holy Knight of the Church of the Holy Light.

When the archbishop was in power, he was sent to lead the so-called new braves to crusade against the Black Temple of Lamia, which caused the tragedy of half-angel demonization. Later, he was brought back by Leia's probation, and he absolutely supported Leia's existence.

"You came just in time, come and accompany me to lie in the Artesia Empire."

"What...ah? Now? Wait..."

Before Sharapova could speak, she was dragged away by Leia.

Chapter 240 Evil Talk

"Damn it!" Above the hall, the Pope was so angry that he yelled, "That damned bitch!!!! She's really getting more and more arrogant! Did you see her attitude just now!? You just can't put it down! The great Holy Lord cares about us! He simply doesn’t care about us! It’s okay if this goes on!? Maybe in the future we can even do such outrageous things as assassinations!!!!”

"She is already a threat." The other pope calmly sat down, picked up the teacup, and took a sip, "A woman, even if she is a saint of light, is not qualified to be an archbishop, but she But she has been standing on her own as the archbishop and continues to let her go, and one day the Church of the Holy Light will be seized by her, and by then we will not be able to guarantee our status, and even our lives will not be guaranteed.”

"Hmph, no matter what, she's just a woman. It's not in accordance with the rules to inherit the position of archbishop. She has the ability to convince thousands of congregants across the continent!? I don't believe it!"

"Don't underestimate her. Although this cheap girl is easy to speak badly, her character is not sloppy at all. She is very cautious, and the city is also very deep." The pope rubbed his chin and winked at another pope.

The other pope raised his pale eyebrows, understood it instantly, waved his hand, and a barrier surrounded the four of them, "Just say what you have to say."

"Over the years, the eyeliner we have planted around her has almost been eradicated by her. The methods are extremely cruel, and even the corpses cannot be found. Some believers who once supported the former archbishop are gradually being eradicated by her. Our men can There are fewer and fewer people who use it. The policy of abolishing slavery she proposed, especially for demon slaves, has made some organizations that make a living by trading slaves very dissatisfied. Of course, there are also guys who try to fight against it, but all There will be no good end." The Pope said coldly, "We are all involved in the profits of the demon slave market, and we are afraid that when she finds out we will be caught by her."

"Don't we know these things!? What's the use of repeating it!?" A irascible Pope said loudly, "She would like to find a reason to pull us down from the position of Pope! By then, some of us bad old men , Aren’t you letting her be crushed to death like an ant!? Did you see her attitude today!? Such an obvious killing intent! It’s clear that she wants to rebel! We should discuss now! How to deal with the current situation Situation! I think it’s better to find a chance to get rid of her!”

"Can you calm down?" The Pope frowned and put down the teacup, "She is the Holy Maiden of Light, how many people do you think can defeat her on the mainland? What's more, she has a very high prestige on the mainland now, How can you move her so easily?"

"Then you mean we can move!?"

"No one said that! If you yell like this again, I won't say it, let you say it! Come and tell everyone what you can do!"

The irritable Pope was deflated, gritted his teeth, and sat down angrily, "You say it, you say it, let you say it, what can you do?"

"After all, she is just a woman." The corner of the Pope's mouth curled up, "Women have to be conquered by men."

Several other popes seemed to understand, "You mean..."

"The Holy Son of Light." The Pope said, "If the Holy Son of Light is the archbishop, no one in the whole continent would dare to object. Even if Leia objects, it will be useless. She must marry the Holy Son of Light." , if she refuses, she is an apostate, and she can be tried for heresy, and we must cultivate the Holy Son of Light who is absolutely loyal to us."

"Your method is not practical at all, because all of this must be based on the premise of the existence of the Holy Son of Light, and must be loyal to us. Where can we find such an existence?" Several other popes Shaking his head, "Is the Holy Son of Light so easy to cultivate? Before that girl became the Holy Maiden of Light, I don't know how many candidate saintesses died during the baptism because they couldn't bear the purest light element." Become an idiot, besides, where can I find a man with a background in the light element? Ai An, the brother of Vivienne, the queen of the Fiat Empire? Unrealistic, this empire has a very close relationship with that girl, looking for it in the mainland? We don’t have that much time. To operate such a plan that may be ruined anytime, anywhere."

"Do you think I will say such a thing without any preparation?" The Pope chuckled a few times.

"What do you mean? Are you sure?"

"The former archbishop had contacts with some demons, do you know?"

"What!?" The other popes stood up abruptly, their eyes widening, "You mean...Sifa!?"

"That's right." The Pope nodded, affirming their thoughts.

"Didn't he disappear...how come..."

Several popes looked at each other and fell silent. The name Sifa has a pivotal position. When the former archbishop was in power, all the secret activities and transactions were completed through the hands of Sifa.

They have only heard of it, but have not actually contacted it. It is said that they have the same strength as the previous archbishop.

"I have been in touch with him all the time. He has a way to quickly cultivate the Holy Son of Light."

"What!? Don't you know how dangerous he is!? He acted without consulting us! How reckless!" Several other popes slapped the table.

"In principle, the less people know about this kind of thing, the better!" The Pope's eyes narrowed, "We are already in the same boat, you should know what I mean by telling you this? We have no Back off! If you still want to keep your current status! Support me!"

"..." The popes couldn't refute his words, and slowly sat down with their fists clenched.

"Think about it."

"Don't think about it." A pope sighed and raised his hand: "Do we have a choice? I agree."

Seeing that the pope expressed his attitude so quickly, the other two popes looked at each other and slowly raised their hands, "I agree."

The four popes endorsed this evil idea, even though they were hailed as the spokesmen of the light, but they wanted to borrow strength from the darkness.

The existence that should not be bound by worldly things, but serves its own rights and desires.

They sat together, black shadows stretching long over the golden cross.

……

……

Artesian Empire.

Leia took Sharapova to stand under the city wall.

The gate of the tall city was locked tightly, and no soldier could be seen. There seemed to be a trace of blood in the air.

"My lord, it's very strange here." Sharapova looked around, "I can't even see a single imperial soldier on the city wall."

"Ah, I saw it." Leia walked forward, "It's a little weirdly quiet, let's go in and take a look."

Chapter 240

click...

Just as Leia and Sharapova were about to cross the city wall and sneak into the Artesian Empire, the huge city gate opened by itself, and the oily iron chain was pulled, shaking up waves of smoke and dust.

Sharapova clenched her fists, took a step back with her right foot, and assumed a fighting posture.

Leia narrowed her eyes.

The city gate was fully opened, and what came into view was a girl, Benata, carrying a huge black scythe.

Behind him was a group of soldiers in black armor. They covered their whole bodies, their faces could not be seen, and no inch of skin was exposed.

When Benata saw Leia, she didn't have any unexpected expression, as if she had expected it long ago, her long black nails tapped the handle of the sickle lightly, showing a smile.

Sharapova frowned and took a step forward, but was stopped by Leia.

Leia winked, suggesting that Sharapova should not act rashly.

Sharapova comprehended, and stood quietly beside Leia, but her spirit was still tense, and she didn't dare to neglect her in the slightest.

"Congratulations, Lady Saint." Benata saluted.

"The Protector of the Artesian Empire, Benata?"

"It's an honor to be remembered by the Holy Maiden." Benata showed a flattered expression.

"It looks like you know I'm coming?"

"No, it's just a coincidence, Lady Saint." Benata turned sideways, and the soldiers behind her moved out of the way. Standing behind her were a group of pale-faced believers from the branch of the Artesia Empire, who were holding back their fear.

Both Leia and Sharapova's expressions changed.

"The believers of the branch seem to be leaving the empire. With respect for the Church of the Holy Light, His Royal Highness specially sent me to escort all the believers. I didn't expect that the saint would come to pick them up in person. It's amazing that such a small matter is so dedicated. Admiration." Benata's smile had a hint of evil.

"Ah, because of the recent major personnel changes in the Church of the Holy Light, the believers have to be recalled temporarily." Leia reacted quickly, and immediately found a reason to respond, "The entire Church of the Holy Light is very busy, and I am just a member of the church." It's just a member, there is no distinction between high and low, this kind of thing can't be said to be a trivial matter."

"Really..." Benata thought for a while, "Then when will they come back? The branch is already an indispensable part of our empire."

With Benata's tone, Leia couldn't hear the slightest feeling that she wanted the members of the branch to come back.

"I can't be sure about this." Leia stared at Benata, "Master Benata Saint, thank you for personally escorting the believers, please give them to me."

Benata didn't answer right away, but a few believers became anxious and wanted to run forward.

Clang!

A long gun was directly inserted in front of the believers, causing them to fall down and scream in fear.

"Hiss, hiss...!" The soldier in the helmet let out a terrifying, inhuman cry.

"What are you doing?" Benata said softly, "So rude, what should I do if I scare others later?"
