Li Re walked out of the church and looked at the figure with a strange expression: "You are the 'clerk' chosen by Shen Yin, right?"

There is no doubt that the person who had just pushed the door open and accidentally saw Li Re and Qu Shenyin hugging each other, and then fled in a hurry, was stunned for a moment, then nodded. The young girl's face, which was not delicate but very clean and pretty, still looked nervous.

Nonsense, how can I not be nervous?

She witnessed a very extraordinary scene!

Although in today's Atlantis capital, the existence of 'Spirit King' Li Re and 'Ruler' Qu Shenyin exists in everyone's heart like the sun and the moon - well, the ruler is the 'sun', and the 'Spirit King' is the 'moon' that protects the 'sun'.

As for the relationship between the 'Ruler' and the 'Spirit King', although there are many different opinions, some say that the 'Ruler' is the 'Spirit King's' childhood sweetheart, and some say that the Ruler is the Spirit King's classmate when he was studying at the Royal Magic Academy, but everyone knows what will happen when a young man and woman of the same age and talent stay together all day long.

However, just because you know something doesn’t mean you can express it out loud.

It doesn't mean that it can be punctured at will.

At least this young girl felt that...the scene she witnessed would most likely bring her dire consequences!

Even though she was indeed a 'clerk' chosen by the 'ruler'.

In the past few days, Qu Shenyin has been staying in the church with Li Re. Naturally, someone needs to convey the external orders. The former Xiuji Engat has taken off his priest robe, willingly left this high city, and integrated into the more penniless people under the city, to follow Li Re's orders, and even more according to his own wishes, to build more high walls in this northern land.

So Qu Shenyin used his power as the "ruler" and selected a suitable person to serve as his "clerk".

Just like An Xia in real life.

But the young girl felt that this could not save her tragic end...

That's the 'Spirit King'!

He is a legendary magician who controls the undead, the Lord of Magic!

I...could I be made into a 'ghost'? It is said that the undead can also do things, and are more useful than living people...

The girl who responded to Li Re's question trembled again and again.

It seems that I have even forgotten why I am standing here——

"Wake up!"

Li Re looked at the girl with a dark face, her whole body shaking non-stop. Finally, he couldn't help but raised his hand and flicked her forehead under the hair.

“Ouch…it hurts!”

The girl woke up instantly, covered her head and screamed in pain.

She blinked again while covering her head, looking at the 'Spirit King' in front of her, still a little dazed, but seemed to have come back to her senses.

"Just wake up."

Li Re put away his hand: "Hold your forehead tightly. You are the only one who can be slapped in the face by me, except for the clergy members above the level of archbishop."

"What's your name?" Although he knew that Qu Shenyin had chosen a new 'clerk', that was all he knew. He didn't know the specific identity of this clerk. In order to make it easier to convey orders later, he just asked casually.

"I don't have a name...but the Lord Ruler gave me the name Andong." The girl answered tremblingly, still a little nervous, but seemed to have realized...Li Re had no intention of 'silencing' her.

An Dong, An Xia.

"She is lazy."

Li Re waved his hand and said, "It seems that you also have nothing - but you should have read books. It's rare. Are you lucky enough to meet a relatively good magic noble and get the opportunity to learn knowledge?"

Although this kind of thing is rare, it still happens.

"It doesn't matter if you don't answer. This is irrelevant." Seeing that 'An Dong' was hesitant to speak, Li Re continued: "You just said that someone from the Central Kingdom came. Where is it?"

An Dong suddenly remembered why he ran here and what he said when he pushed the door into the church.

She said hurriedly, "In front of the old palace of Duke Atlanta - they said that they came to discuss with you... the establishment of a new country in the name of 'kingdom' and 'justice'."

"Negotiate? I'm afraid you're here to see if I've really done anything that violates the 'Covenant of Abraham'?" Li Re knew the answer without having to guess.

He would never forget that he had deliberately let go of the 'Saint of the Dead Country' Shugli - it was most likely that guy who ran to the Central Kingdom to tip off the group, which was why they came so quickly.

However, this was what Li Re did on purpose. He wanted to test the reactions of other countries, so it doesn't matter.

Since people are here.

It was more natural for him to meet him.

Meet the 'messenger' of the kingdom.

Adding fuel to the fire with the reaction from the kingdom!

...and he has been in the kingdom for so many years, the people who come might be his acquaintances!

"I'll go over there."

"You stay here and watch. Don't let anyone in. If you don't want to die, you'd better not go in."

"After all...Old Qu is probably angry again now!"

No.

It's more than just losing your temper.

After Ben Lire gave him a good beating in the end and pointed out his superpower flaws, he lost face again.

The 'young' and 'immature' Qu Shenyin was now extremely angry - but she couldn't do anything about Li Re.

But she became more annoyed.

The more hot Li became, the happier he became.

He left these words behind.

Just walk away leisurely with happy steps.

Only An Dong was left standing there alone. The silly little girl looked at the church door that closed again, then looked at the back of Li Re who was leaving. After thinking for a while, she just stood in front of the church door.

I dare not leave.

Don't dare to go in either.

...

the other side.

In front of the palace that collapsed and shattered in the battle a few days ago.

Under the warm setting sun, the snow in the capital of Atlanta melted, revealing the rocks and soil underneath. The towering domes of this tall city standing majestically on the mountains looked like jagged sword blades under the rising sun.

The palace where the Duke of Atlanta originally lived is still in ruins.

Qu Shenyin did not include this place in his plan to rebuild the capital.

In her opinion.

It would be more meaningful to leave the palace in its dilapidated state than to repair it.

Because it symbolizes the destruction of the old monarchy.

Symbolizes the breaking of the 'Abrahamic Covenant'.

Everyone who has nothing sees it and will remember the day when Atlanta was breached.

But at this moment.

However, there were people standing in front of the ruined palace, stopping in the spacious corridors, at the second highest point in the capital city which was built on the top of a mountain and where the terrain became higher as one went deeper into the city, gazing at the scene in this high city which was in full swing and no longer cold as before.

"It's really different here...

The man couldn't help but murmur.

The clear and pleasant voice then floated between the wind and the flowing shadows.

The already bright golden hair seemed to blend into the sunlight, shining brightly.

"Your Highness, have you been here before?"

Someone accompanying him asked.

"Ah."

The person with long golden hair nodded in response. She was tall and well-proportioned, wrapped in a black formal dress. The white shawl on the outside did not reach her hips. The lace on the edge swayed like mottled shadows, gently swaying between the round hips bulging under the long skirt.

She had a veil on her head, revealing her beautiful face. Her hands were folded on her lower abdomen, her chest was bulging, and the slightly exposed white skin between her neck made her look both dignified and alluring.

As her long skirt swayed and her veil fluttered, she uttered words that sounded like she was missing someone:

"When I was a child, I followed my uncle, who is now the prince of the kingdom, to visit the northern kingdom of Atlantis."

"In my impression, Atlanta is always cold and lonely. There are always places where light cannot reach, and the fire of people is even more dim and fragile."

Listen to this.

The man following him looked at the scene in front of him.

Let your eyes pass over the faces of the poor people walking on the streets, in and around the city.

The beautiful woman in men's clothing and dressed as a butler paused for a moment.

She knew that this scene was indeed completely different from what Her Royal Highness the Princess had described.

however.

"You don't seem to be disgusted by such a scene?"

The 'deacon' said.

"No, I actually... don't like it."

The Princess raised her voice and said, "I have been taught since I was a child that 'people with nothing are equal to dust, and everything must follow the will of God. The Covenant of Abraham cannot be violated by anyone.'"

"So my common sense tells me that they should not stand on this high city, nor should they use the great power that belongs to the gods."

"Then why do you..."

The deacon was stunned.

"No reason."

The princess said with a smile under the veil: "Because I don't like them standing here."

"It's just like the group of people who claim to be shepherds who supervise the world on behalf of the gods don't like us to go higher!"

"And now."

"That person broke the rules of the world in just one month."

"Don't you think... this is actually, quite interesting?"

That person...The beautiful woman in butler's clothes suddenly remembered the scene a month ago when they stood in the palace of the Central Kingdom and watched the figure leaving to the north.

At that time, Her Royal Highness the Princess also expressed her feelings.

But that feeling was just helplessness.

just now.

But instead I felt a little...excited.

"Your thoughts are dangerous."

The deaconess said.

"I know, of course I know."

The princess said: "Of course I know that the poor are at the bottom of the world, but to that group of people, we so-called nobles are not much higher than them."

"Even if I am now a true magician - a magician of the 'magic instructor' level certified by the Royal School of Magic, it is not worth mentioning. Under the suppression of magic by the 'Abraham Covenant', I can't even defeat the 'bishops' of the same level, let alone those 'archbishops' and 'saints'."

"I also know that we came here on a exploratory mission."

"but."

"Danger is always more interesting than a world that never changes, isn't it?"

"'Spirit King' Li Re... my 'classmate', he may not know me, but... I am very happy to be able to see his brilliance and not be eclipsed by the gods."

The young princess's eyes were burning, different from a month ago - but with the same color.

That color has 'respect' written all over it.

The deaconess fell silent.

She certainly understood her Highness's longing for the 'Spirit King'.

That is the worship of someone who is superior to oneself in all aspects.
