Your Majesty, drink the medicine quickly

Chapter 229 Violet is the most affectionate! I said what the Lord said! (-in-)

"Father!!"

Another figure suddenly rushed over with tears in his eyes. It's Elizabeth.

This guy has a strong jealousy - she used to hide from her father and evade responsibility, but now she sees her father hugging her sister, but she comes to compete for his father's love.

[I don’t even want to share my father’s love with my sister. Let alone a man. 】

【You will suffer from it later. 】

Lipton was overwhelmed.

Recalling the various things Elizabeth did when she arrived in the carriage, she deliberately seduced herself in front of Katerina and sow discord. Li Pu felt extremely regretful.

The thing he regrets most in his life is falling in love with the evil god Elizabeth.

Hmm. He doesn't regret the matter with Katerina that much.

As the Duke's other woman, Elizabeth's mother. The Duke should really tell Julie that the fog has cleared.

"Yeah, I saw it, I saw it."

Before she died, she once said to the Duke - I am honored that that person is you.

The Duke does come from Dante's soul and is Dante's conscience.

So, is falling in love with two women at the same time considered affectionate? Is it considered faithful to love?

Without Julie's self-sacrifice, the world would have come to an end twenty years ago with the awakening of the saint.

If he hadn't fallen for Dante's conspiracy, the Duke would never have had a relationship with Julie in the temple.

This woman sacrificed her life to prevent the evil god from awakening in the temple and became pregnant with Elizabeth.

She saved the world and gave her all for the Duke.

Li Pu chose to change the subject: "Your Majesty the Duke, we have fulfilled our mission. We have succeeded. The haze (mist) above the Violet Man's head has receded."

And these things may be what Dante really wants the most.

For Demon King Dante, the whole world is at his fingertips (if not for Li Pu and the Old Gods), but the only thing he can't get is what the Duke can have.

Dante cut this conscience from his soul, threw it into the River Styx and reincarnated as a human.

Moreover, it seemed that I was forced to do that, and there was no chance of regret.
[Anyway, in Elizabeth's view, Alfred and Dante seem to be two people. 】

He has a love for both of his women.

At the last moment of consciousness, his eyes passed through the fog in the distance and looked at the sun rising gradually from the fog. Under that sunshine, the city that was gradually illuminated was full of vitality.

As the vitality disappeared, the Duke's eyes gradually became blurred.

['Hethrodiil' (goddess of dawn, fire-bearing saint, mother of Katerina), have you seen that our daughter Katerina has grown up, and she and her companions took her My sister accomplished what we failed to accomplish. The violet mist has been dispelled.]

[The two daughters felt the passing of the Duke's life, and they finally began to cry. 】

But it always feels weird.

I don’t know what Elizabeth said to the Duke, but the Duke’s face suddenly became a little stiff.

[From what his daughter said, the Duke suddenly remembered that Elizabeth also seemed to have a very serious mental illness.]

Looking at this line of narration in the storybook in his hand, Li Pu sighed in his heart: "The Duke is really affectionate." '
[Julie (Elizabeth’s mother, exploring with the Duke in the temple), have you seen that our daughter Elizabeth has grown up? She and her sisters and companions have completed what we failed to complete, bringing Violet to the world. The fog dissipated. 】

The Duke owed both men a great deal.

However, his love for Katerina's mother is true love. The two had the same ideals, and for both sides, they almost gave up everything - Hethrodiil gave up the chance to rekindle the divine fire, and the Duke gave up his dignity, bowing his head like Dante for help.

Li Pu answered the Duke's question in another way - no matter what the process was, we succeeded.

The Duke patted the backs of the two daughters and comforted them, and his eyes fell on Li Pu - I am going to die soon. Can you three take care of each other?

[This hero who has taken root on this side of the world and resisted the darkness in various timelines finally ushered in his dusk today]

The dedication and love of the two mothers-in-law for the Duke made Dante envious and jealous.

"The radiance of the goddess of dawn finally shines on the earth again."

He also has a love for Julie, and this love is respect and love.

[It doesn’t matter who the Duke is, he is their father. 】

The two women also truly loved him and gave everything for him.

It can be said that she bought precious time for the saint to wake up.

The Duke is responsible for the mother of his two daughters.

[People didn’t notice that the light in the Duke’s eyes was almost disappearing. 】

Li Pu's face looked a little strange.

Li Pu thought to himself.

'Indeed, it doesn't matter anymore. '

Li Pu felt that the Duke was an affectionate person.

"cough."

He has been trying to control the Duke, but this conscience thrived after witnessing all the despair in the world, and eventually affected Dante.

Every time Dante tries to control the Duke, he himself is infected by his conscience.

He was afraid of the Duke and his own conscience.

Therefore, it no longer matters who the Duke is.

He is Alfred, the last leader of mankind against hell.

As long as he exists, Dante will not be able to completely engulf the last piece of light in the world.

'Well, the leaders seem to be alive now. '
'I wonder if I will meet other human heroes on the journey to Dawn Fortress. '
'Or the elven heroes. '

People wept bitterly when they discovered that the life force in the Duke's eyes had burned out.

People covered the Duke's remains with flags.

As the former commander-in-chief of the Crusaders, although Alfred was expelled back to the territory by the Holy See due to some things, he will always be their commander-in-chief in the hearts of the soldiers.

The sunlight in the sky only appeared for a moment before it was obscured by fog again.

In the morning, the divine power pushed the fog hundreds of miles to the west
Now that the sacred power is gradually disappearing, the Kingdom of Heaven can only protect the area of ​​more than ten miles to the west of Violet to ensure that this area will not be covered by fog.
Therefore, the high wall of fog is advancing here. As a result, the sun that had just risen was covered by the high wall of mist advancing toward the east.

In the blink of an eye, the sunshine in the city became dimmer and dimmer.

However, Sirna knew that this light would rise again at noon.

'Alfred. '

Goddess Sirna looked at the body covered with a flag and thought to herself: "Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow will be in the violet. There will be sunshine every day in the future." '
'This light shining in the dark world will strengthen the hope in people's hearts, allowing those who were born in the foggy era and have never seen the sun to see the real sunshine. '
'It also gives hope to those who are constantly groping in the darkness. '
'From now on, everyone will know that the fog can be dispelled. '

'And those who are struggling in the darkness will also know that there is light in this world. ’ Under the strange looks of Li Pu’s son-in-law and his two daughters, Hilna led everyone in a brief prayer in front of the Duke’s body.

A formal funeral service will take place at a later date.

"Nip, should we remind everyone."

"Shh!~~"

After the prayer, a southern noble wearing a Crusader robe walked up to Sirna with a group of violet nobles.

This southern nobleman, named 'Carroll', was once a bishop in the Holy See.

His family is a great noble in the south, and the family has many high-ranking officials in the Holy See.

At the same time, the family has been marrying Violet.

So, he was a distant relative of Alfred.

According to legal procedures, the inheritance rights of Elizabeth and Katerina are yet to be discussed. Therefore, after the Duke's death, the Violet Territory should be passed to one of his distant relatives - that is, this great southern nobleman named 'Carol'.

This bishop was specially called by the Duke from the Holy See.

Since Carol is a bishop, he cannot inherit the Violet Principality unless he gives up his status as a clergyman.

Therefore, if the Duke dies, he will not be able to directly become the new Duke of Violet for a period of time.

Therefore, as long as the daughters are still alive, even if Carol wants to fight for the violet territory, it will take a lot of effort.

Carroll's reputation is not very good, he is very slick, he likes to work hard, and he is a pure politician.

But the Duke still called him over from the south.

The Duke believes that although Carol will fight for power with her daughters, if he dies, Violet will need the intervention of the Holy See power represented by Carol.

Otherwise, once he, Li Pu, his daughters and Hilna are all dead, Violet will definitely fall into the hands of the cult or hell.

Whether it was Carol's greed for Violet or his status with the Holy See, he would never help the cultists and hell occupy this place after the Duke's death.

He will help the Duke clean up the Church of Evil and check and balance those lords within Violet who may be cultists or have ties to the devils.

As the Duke said, he no longer trusts the Violet Man. He was very worried that after his death, the evil cultists would cause trouble.

And Carol will never side with the Church of Evil.

In the Duke's opinion, it is better to give the violet to the Holy See than to the devil or cultists.

And as long as Sirna is still alive, He will choose a more suitable new Duke for Violet.

Therefore, before the war, the Duke had already made preparations for his aftermath.

Bishop Carroll stood up at this time to put an end to today's welcome of the hero back to the city.

“High above, the loving Mother God King of Heaven, the Archangel of Mercy, the Archangel of Neatness, and the Holy Army of Heaven’s Blessed Grace.”

"Bishop" Carol, who was wearing the Holy See's robe, first mentioned the identities of Elizabeth and Katerina in public - archangels, not the Violet Princess.

Then, with noble etiquette and a singing tone, he greeted Hilna, Elizabeth and Katerina: "Thank you for the gifts you have brought, thank you for the light you have brought, we are speechless at this moment. To describe the feeling of praise in my heart.”

The violet nobles who followed Carol were all nobles who fled the violet city after the mist swallowed the violet.

Some people fled to the territory outside the city, and some people simply fled to the south.

When the Duke called on the lords from all over the country to return to the city for support, they did not respond to the Duke's order - the madman came back.

But when the Holy Army came from the south, these nobles brought their own troops and followed them back to die.

They were all tricked by Carol.

Originally, these nobles thought that the matter on Violet's side had been taken care of by the angel army in heaven. They followed Carol here to help Carol share the cake.

In fact, Carroll thinks so too - because, judging from the news received by the Holy See, Heaven has indeed sent a major army of angels to Violet.

However, this troop was sold to hell by the Duke. Therefore, the angel army was ambushed and repulsed by Dante's evil army on the way.

The Duke doesn't want those troublemakers from the Kingdom of Heaven to come over and get involved in the Saint's affairs. The troops of the Kingdom of Heaven are an extremely uncontrollable factor for the Duke. On the contrary, the Holy Army is completely controllable.

The Duke knew that Violet's real crisis was the Saint, not hell. As long as Li Pu succeeds, no matter how fierce the attack of the hell forces is, it will come to an abrupt end.

All he had to do was help Li Pu defend the city for a few days and buy some time.

The strength of the Crusaders is just right.

Therefore, Carroll did not deceive those nobles, he was deceived by the Duke.

If he knew that the troops he brought were the main force, he would never have come.

Fortunately, the fog has been dispelled when war and disaster came. Therefore, these nobles who did not participate in the war were well hidden in the Violet Fortress. So none of them died.

Therefore, they did not deeply feel the horror of this war. They just saw that the fog was dispelled, the earth shook, and it was over.

For them, this is just a near miss.

However, although their lives were not in danger, the Kingdom of Heaven and the Crusaders saved their property in Violet, which caused many nobles to gather around Hilna and Katerina, follow Bishop Carroll, and praise them without hesitation. .

These words of praise sounded as good as the songs, making people wonder if everyone had actually prepared a speech.

But in this speech, Li Pu's name is not included.

Carol and the nobles who followed him to Violet knew about Li Pu. When everyone came here a few days ago, this guy named Li Pu was going crazy and was killed by Elizabeth and Katerina. The two took care of it.

I heard that he claims to be the spokesperson of the Supreme God. Obviously he is not.

What's more, this spokesperson is still on the side of the two princesses. If he really admits that he is the spokesperson of some supreme god, then wouldn’t it be this spokesperson who has the final say on how to divide Violet’s cake in the future?

Therefore, Carol was the last person to believe that Li Pu was the spokesperson of the Supreme God.

However, judging from the accounts of those who escaped from the underground today, the identity of this madman is indeed open to question.

It is indeed possible that he is the spokesperson of some god.

But this god should be Sirna.

Therefore, this Nip is just Sirna's little assistant - it is impossible for God King Sirna to be that Nip's little assistant, right?
So, just thank Hilna. After all, he is just a spokesperson.

Therefore, Carol and the nobles are grateful to heaven and to the Crusaders, but not to the spokesperson.

This situation has a bit of a "you saved a group of people's lives, but they are thanking God" flavor.

Elizabeth secretly pouted: "You, this guy, can be regarded as the spokesperson of the Supreme God. Don't you think you should protect your identity?"

"Hush, the Lord likes to keep a low profile." Li Pu looked at the crowd gradually gathering under the high wall and said, "The Lord doesn't want everyone to know that I am his spokesperson."

"But why didn't I hear the Lord's words?" Elizabeth wondered.

"You have heard - what I just said." Li Pu stood on the high wall, looking at the streets and alleys of the city below. More and more people said: "The Lord asked me to tell you, He wants you to Help me hide. Let me go quickly, don’t let the Holy See find me, everyone regards me as the supreme god.”

Elizabeth followed Li Pu's gaze and looked behind her, looking into the city. Then, there was a buzz in her head, and she almost fell down in fright.

She suddenly understood why Li Pu was so worried.

Because people who are grateful to Li Pu have come - the number is too many billion points!
Compared with these people, the Holy See, the nobility, and the so-called gods are nothing!
