Chris's Faith of Fire

"Your instigation has no effect on me, Jacob. My faith is completely different from yours." Patricia replied, "You surprised me, but I am Patricia Yule. Teach you hymns and I will train you to be bishops. I have seen wars 100 years ago and your little tricks have no effect on me."

If it doesn't work, why are you still sitting here with nothing to do?Jacob sneered at the self-contradictory words. He believed that only swords could bring order to the world, and there was no other way.The black-haired noble virgin in front of her looked divine and dignified, but she was once a person who stood at the top of the world.It is impossible to escape unscathed if you are in a high position, especially in a world like this. The invasion of the devil may wash away the northern world, but now that the brave are there, they will not cross the sea of ​​fog.

"Can faith allow you to escape from here?" Jacob smiled. "What can open the steel cage is not faith but sword and strength. These are the things you lack most."

"Jacob, you fit the mentality of a 50-year-old man very well. He is greedy...stupid and cunning."

"However, this will keep our city and our goddess in a safe place. You should take a good look at what you have done. Patricia, send combat power and Zachary to the north. However, they are now in where?"

"You know this is to deal with the devil, to save the world..."

"The world doesn't need you, the Holy Mother, to save you!" the cardinal roared loudly, and the echo echoed in their ears. It took a while for Harris's tinnitus to get better.They didn't want to say any more. Patricia's thoughts had always puzzled them, and they didn't want to understand. They once trusted her and really treated her like their own mother, but what about now?She hid things about Zacharie from us, and found out that she hid things about the hero, even from the Princess of Flame in the North.

They looked back at Patricia, who still looked like a 20-year-old girl. It would be good to put her with such a long life here, so that she could fully experience the loneliness and helplessness, and it would continue like this forever.

Back in the garden, the guarding knight had disappeared, and Jacob knocked the shepherd's staff twice.

"Knight! Knight!" After a while, a knight ran over.

"How dare you leave your post without permission!" The Cardinal's anger could allow him to perform divine punishment on the goddess's behalf at any time. The knight in front of him was panicking, but the fear in his panic did not seem to come from the Cardinal.

"Your Excellency! Something big happened."

"clam down."

"A fleet has appeared on the foggy sea and is heading towards the Holy City." The knight tried his best to keep his voice from trembling.

"What? Is the Demon King's army attacking? You said before that even Parthia has not been lost yet!"

"Nature...is human, and the flag on the opponent's sail is a flame."

Bishop Harris thought thoughtfully when he heard these words, "Fire, could it be the Masefield family?"

"Those two little girls? Which one is it! Princess Ladia or Princess Crystal?"

"I don't know... your Majesty."

"Forget it, quickly organize the knights to fight. Don't they seem to know that we have been prepared for this kind of thing?" Every priest here knows light attribute magic. Even if you bring more people, we will still be on the sea. I can use light to burn you to ashes. If it is Behemoth, I will be helpless, but ordinary humans are not afraid at all.Jacob remained very calm.

But the knight had not left yet. "One more thing, Your Excellency."

"Speak quickly if you have something to say!" This time he was really angry, but the knight's next words instantly calmed him down.

"The empire in the north...is now also leading its troops to block Neferait's gate."

Chapter 418 412. The Reversed Pope——3

"Sir Lorraine, do you think these people still awe you now?" Aaron was riding a horse, and the blond knight next to him shook his head when he heard his words.

"Pretend and talk about your faith. When your life is in danger, you hide behind the statue of the goddess. Fake people, fake faith." Lorraine commented. He looked at the citizens and priests fleeing in all directions. Many people were even more confused. He couldn't kneel down and fell to the ground incontinently.Is this the holy Neferaite?A holy city where everyone is personable and can serve as the goddess's spokesperson on earth?

Fami questioned all of this. People on the slums where he was born were much calmer when encountering this kind of thing, instead of just crying and screaming and kneeling down to beg for forgiveness.

"What do you think, Sir Farr?" Aaron threw the question to him again.Fami didn't know why the hostess brought this topic to him. He grew up on a slum street, and his adopted brother Oli couldn't even eat enough. They never feared the goddess, if there were so many things worthy of awe. You will also become more reluctant to steal.

"I don't know anything about these people," he returned. "I only care about the people I care about."

Aaron glanced ahead. The white buildings blocked her view of the coast. The 5000 people at the head of the army were enough to scare these priests out of fear. Aaron was not worried about the outcome of this dispute at all. They would liberate Pat. It is a sure thing that Lisha will then let the other two cardinals become puppets manipulated by the empire. She is not as moderate as the new aristocracy.The merchant told Aaron that those who could control the trade could control the country, while the knights told her that only force could control the country.But Aaron felt that the answer was not one, she could use both.

"The person you care about is on the other side." The emperor smiled and smoothed his collar. Standing in front of the army seemed to have some dust on her clothes. Fami wanted to see Chris, of course she understood, and she also understood What's more, she can never win his heart by herself, and she still owes Chris a favor, otherwise she will kill her.

This operation was originally based on the white kite that Chris sent a week ago. This white kite was very smart and flew high into the sky with her letter to avoid Neferrait's eyes. They agreed on a time to send troops together. .

After Fami understood what the emperor meant, he immediately started galloping. Lyles, who was also beside the emperor, looked at the young man's retreating figure and sighed. "Young people seem to have endless energy and can do whatever they want."

"Does this happen to you Lyles?" the emperor asked.

"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't become a mercenary."

"I see, then you also want to return to Princess Crystal?" This time her eyes were sharper.

Lyles met the emperor's gaze and immediately lowered his head. "I am loyal to you, Your Majesty."

The emperor nodded, raised his riding crop and pointed forward. "Then, advance the whole army! Destroy all resisters! As I said before, these people imprisoned Cardinal Patricia. She is sacred and highly respected, and has served the goddess for more than 100 years! But these good guys plan to rely on They gain power that does not belong to them by being imprisoned! Warriors at the head of the army, tell them what glory is and tell them who is the true server of the goddess!"

Who serves the goddess? Most of the warriors thought so in their minds. They used to serve the god of war, shouting, "Kill, kill, give your head to Sigurd Feil." The slogan swung their swords, but now it is easier. The reason is that the emperor is willing to give them twice the salary, and their equipment has also been changed. The magic armor that was once only issued to the warriors of the "God of War Blade" in the palace now has more magic armor, and the swords and guns they are assigned are all attached. A very expensive item.Thanks to Meier's help in issuing gold coupons, the amount of cash she can manipulate in a short period of time has been more than two or three times more, and the money will be recovered from Nefrait.

Many young people have become soldiers for this reason. Soldiers who can become the leader of the army are well-equipped, making them feel invincible and enjoy the pleasure of killing and bloodshed.

Everyone raised their spears together, and they rode straight in. Just relying on hundreds of priests was no match for them. The paladins raised their swords but had no time to find their horses, and were stabbed to death by the soldiers on the ground.Some chose to surrender. Although it was against the spirit of chivalry, they seemed much more at ease after the emperor emphasized that Jacob and Bishop Harris were the villains.

Everyone shouted for justice and divine punishment and rushed into the great monastery. The great monastery of Nefrait, which had never been stained with blood for thousands of years, sprinkled blood all over the transparent white floor today. Before the knights could heal their wounds, they were cut down by the following imperial warriors, who stepped forward one by one to clear the way for their noble emperor.

Loren took Aaron's hand and walked up the theater-shaped steps and walked through the long corridor until they saw the interior of the church. There were tributes to God placed on the altar. It looked like they had a mass today. , because it is the Holy Sabbath.Being able to mark the Great Monastery of Neferait on the Holy Sabbath Day, I think it can be regarded as the No. 1 in history.

After entering, Aaron felt the smell of blood coming to her face. She led Sir Lorraine into the temple, but the emperor frowned when he saw the interior.

She discovered that Bishop Jacob had committed suicide and his body was hanging from a pillar in the church.

Harris, on the other hand, was sitting there with Cardinal Patricia waiting for them.

"It seems you are all ready, Lord Bishop?"

Harris nodded.

The corners of Aaron's mouth curved, and she spoke to Sir Lorraine beside her, "Tell everyone that Cardinal Patricia is safe and sound, and then tell everyone in this city that everything is Bishop Jacob's fault. What is the specific plan?" Go find Lyles with the evidence, he will definitely be able to fabricate a bunch of stuff."

Lorraine nodded, performed a knight's salute and retreated.

Cardinal Patricia will become the Pope, the girl thought, and the soldiers at the head of the army will always monitor them from now on. From now on, the religious power of this continent will be under my control.

◆ ◇

Fami's horse had no intention of heading towards the enemy from the beginning. The Black Pearl Sword was stuck at his waist. If anyone wanted to block the way, whether it was the leader of the army or the paladins of Neferait, he would do it. Cutting it in two, he learned to be obedient and steady during the time he stayed with Ailian, but once he thought about Chris, the wolf blood in his body boiled again.

Chrissy, Chrissy, Chrissy.

The name that he has been repeating in his heart for the past few months is now like his heartbeat, reminding Fami that he is getting closer and closer to his lover every time.He heard the sound of horse hoofbeats in his ears, and ran towards the streets with his eyes, not wanting to miss any silver-haired girl. He seemed to see you, Chris... The young man gritted his teeth.

I'm really sorry for rejecting you during the Red Banquet. I should have been by your side, guarding you when you needed me most.Nothing happened to Ailian and I. Now she can stand alone and become a great emperor.It's time to go back to you... In fact, I should have stayed with you when I went to Irene.

If the ship hadn't left, I would never have let you risk it alone.

Chapter 419 413. The Reversed Pope——4

At this time, the singing of the soldiers attracted his attention. Those who were not Ailian were still Imperial soldiers. They were wearing old-style military uniforms and humming something about defeating the Dragon Queen.Fami immediately realized that this was the team of Princess Ladia. They came from the sea and brought dozens of three-masted sailing ships to the harbor of Nefrait. Fami rode over there. They hadn't completely gotten off the boat yet, and Ailian's speed was too fast.

That silver hair in the middle, yes, that must be Chrissy!So conspicuous in the crowd, he is also riding a horse and wearing a heroic armor.

armor?Chrissy never wears armor.

"Stop your horse, civilian!" The soldier pointed a long gun at Fami and told him not to come closer.

Fami's eyes were completely focused on the silver-haired woman. Her silver hair was too long. Even Chris when she was still in the palace was only about the same as her.No, if you include the tall figure, the contrast will be even more obvious. Although the silver hair and red eyes and similar appearance make people care, she is Princess Ladia and not Chris. He still remembers that he was beaten by Chris before. Ladia saved his life when Si was being punished as a thief.

Thinking of this, Fami jumped off the horse and bowed respectfully to the princess in front of him.

"It's an honor to meet you, Your Highness Ladia."

"Huh?" The Queen of Holy Sword looked at the young man in front of her. She seemed to be a little impressed but couldn't remember where she had seen him before. "Who are you?"

"My name is Fami, and I used to be the bodyguard of Her Royal Highness Crystal."

"I remembered..." she said lightly, "What do you want from me?"

She didn't care about her own affairs at all. Maybe it was because the princess didn't understand her own strength. It was more likely because she had more important things to deal with than Fami.

Long story short.

"I'm very sorry, Your Highness Ladia... I have been looking for Your Highness Crystal. We have been traveling together for a long time."

The princess's eyebrows twitched, "My sister has already gone to attack Garnet, not on this ship. You can go back to Garnet to find her."

"Eh? Wait..." He was about to rush forward to ask, but the guard straightened his spear and stopped him. "Boy, do you want to be rude to Her Majesty the Queen?"

"Your Majesty?"

"This is Her Majesty Queen Latia of the Holy Sword, the first legal heir to the throne of Garnet." These ruthless words seemed to have nothing to do with her, but Chrissy also wanted to become a king.Even though he is completely indifferent to politics, he understands that a country cannot have two kings. Chris did not come to the Holy Capital with her sister. Is it because they parted ways?But Ladia should also know that if Chris breaks through Rod Cullos Center first, she will have real power.Why did she let Chris attack Garnet?Did she really think Chris couldn't beat her?There is an awakened hero beside her.

Fami was restless that day. There seemed to be great changes in the Holy Capital. Patricia was appointed as pope by Aileen. Cardinal Harris was a loser so he was spared his life. Jacob was burdened with everything. The accusations of having an affair with a demon and betraying a goddess were even more exaggerated than originally planned.

The Pope's coronation day was a week later, and Ladia also met Ellen at a dinner party.

Ladia showed a surprised expression when she saw Fami standing next to the emperor to serve, but then she stopped looking at him, as if disdain and disgust were written all over her face.Judging from the results, their discussion was going well, and the emperor was already planning to send troops to help her.The condition was that Ladia should also support Ailian and build a certain number of monasteries in the royal capital and the country in the future. After talking about it, Ailian came up with a contract, which detailed the aid content and what Ladia would promise in the future. .

Only then did Fami realize that Ellen had no intention of supporting Chris in becoming the queen of Garnet.

The boy wanted to scream at that time... Chris helped her, she should repay Chris instead of her sister!Lovely Lian didn't intend to explain herself to Sir Farr. She didn't care about the brave men and the Queen of Fire on the other side of the sea, but the opportunity in front of her was the most important thing to seize.

He couldn't sit still anymore, left his seat in the middle of the meal, and rushed out of the big monastery. The harbor at night was full of celebrating soldiers and priests. Most of them had accepted the rhetoric and looked at The dead bishop cursed and drank and wandered around the beach.Fami walked through the crowd and came to the harbor pier, where Latiya's big ship was still parked. The sailors were a little curious to see such a hurried young man.

"What's up, young man? Would you like some wine?"

Fami shook his head, "You... who can tell me what happened in the north?" The sailor seemed a little indifferent when he heard his words. The young man groped in his pocket anxiously, took out a gold coin and handed it over. The sailor was immediately stunned. His eyes were shining, and he reached out his hand anxiously to pick it up.

"Tell me and I'll give this to you!"

"Okay, okay! What do you want to hear, young master?" the sailor said impatiently.

"Tell me what happened in the north... how is Princess Crystal."

"Ah, this is a long story..."

They chatted for a long time, starting from when Ren defeated Lilim, to preparing for the war with Alexia.

The king of Gilkern sent an army to assist the city of Anatolia, and the old sailor was a resident there. He knew all this very well, and just when Fami was about to become impatient, he told the story about Princess Crystal.

"That lord came to Anatolia at the end of the war, and Fermina, the female leader of the beast tribe, obeyed her, so the beast tribe also obeyed Princess Crystal."

"So she went to attack Garnet? Why did Her Majesty Ladia allow it?"

"Why is it not allowed? Wouldn't it be best to let my sister fight in the front line and then attack after gathering my strength?" the sailor asked.

"But, if Chris wins the royal capital...she can become the king."

"Even if you become the king without inheritance rights, you will be attacked by everyone, not to mention that no one thinks that Princess Crystal can win the royal capital."

"Why, isn't the hero by her side?"

The sailor was amused by this sentence and laughed out loud, "Haha, don't spread this sentence randomly. It is said that the brave man was blind when he awakened. No one knows whether he is the opponent of the devil now."

"What?" Noelle is blind?

"Hey, young master, it's time to give me the gold coins."

Fami was so distraught that the sailor took advantage of his distraction and snatched the gold coin from his hand.

"This happened two weeks ago." He checked the coin's quality and seemed very satisfied, so he said a few more words. "Let me tell you one more thing. Although I don't know why, there seems to be a big disagreement among you adults in the past two weeks. They originally planned to come to Neferrait together, but Master Lian thought it was unnecessary to mobilize such a force. . In the end, His Majesty, who has close ties with Cardinal Patricia, will come here, and they will then head directly to the south of Garnet by sea."

So Chris went directly west from Gilkern?

"Wait, what about Lian?"

"Ah, he also followed Her Royal Highness Crystal's team, the others stayed in Anatolia City."

"other people?"

"You have so many questions... those nobles of Gilkern, Lady Asha. Ah, by the way... Lady Adele seems to have kept up with Her Royal Highness Crystal. Commander Taylor Knights left In the city."

Who are those people?But it seems that these are not so important now, he knows what's going on.

Now Chris is heading west with the orc army, and Ladia will be faster by water. They may meet before Rodculo Saint. This is what Chris wants to think about.

Is your awakening really to become a king?Do whatever it takes to do this?

Is that really what you think from the bottom of your heart?

The young man was in a trance. He walked to the harbor and saw several boats. He nodded to himself.Jump on board...

But a familiar figure stood up from the side. She hid under the canvas, as if she had expected that Fami would do such a thing.

"Fami, where are you going?" Ailian frowned. She took off her noble armor and put on light clothing.

"Go find Chris, she needs me."

"I can't see it. If she really needed you, why did she leave you in the first place?"

"No." Fami shook her head violently, "It's not that she abandoned me, it's that I'm sorry for Chris..."

"One slap can't make a difference, Fami... Your fate is over, so don't go, okay?"

The awe-inspiring attitude just now softened, and now the emperor's voice sounded more like a girl's request, "If you stay, I will give you anything, anything."

"I already……"
