Chen Mo's eyelids trembled slightly, then he gently lifted the old woman's limp body, let her lean on his shoulder, and walked slowly into the room.

The next day, all the staff of the district administration building, including the potbellied district chief, appeared collectively in front of the two-story garden villa. Everyone wore solemn black dresses and held a bouquet of pure white carnations in their hands .

Pedestrians who passed this section of the road unconsciously lowered their footsteps. Some people didn't know why, and some people felt inexplicable. They asked around for the identity of the people living in the villa. , he gave a replying voice.

"Big man."

A hundred years is neither long nor short.Say it is long, but it is not enough to turn the sea into a mulberry field, but say it is short, who can still laugh at the east wind after a hundred years?

After decades of absence, Chen Mo returned to the edge of Jinghu Lake and dug a new tomb next to the weed-covered tomb. The inscription reads "My Wife's Tomb" and his and Selka's names are lined up below.

Sitting cross-legged in front of the two tombs, Chen Mo took down an emerald green flute hanging from his waist, and played it facing the mirror lake.

The sound of the flute was melodious, turning faintly between the sky and the earth. When the song ended, the awe-inspiring gust of wind suddenly set off waves on the lake.

Following the strong wind, the silver-blue flying dragon landed on the shore, Alice jumped off the dragon's back, and respectfully half-kneeled in front of Chen Mo: "Your Highness."

After putting away the flute, Chen Mo got up quietly, patted the dust on his clothes, and then looked down at the blond knight Ji who was kneeling on one knee.

"Let's go."

"Yes."

A moment later, the strong wind whipped up countless fallen leaves in the forest, and the silver-blue flying dragon flapped its wings and soared into the sky, leaving only two desolate tombs by the mirror lake, and the melodious sound of the flute dissipated in the wind...

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

In the 103rd year of the Holy Calendar, since the defeat of the demons a hundred years ago, the highest priest of the Axiom Church has been closed to the top of the central cathedral tower all day long. Decades later, a bright white auspicious light fell from the sky and led her away. Only one holy master who traveled abroad was left as the supreme authority. After a hundred years, the holy master returned to the Axiom Church.

The central capital, which used to look like a medieval city, has expanded five or six times in size at this time. The combination of magic and technology has produced a steampunk type of modern social civilization. With the help of magic to keep clean and tidy streets, the office buildings on the street Row upon row, pedestrians wearing clothes full of popular elements, high-speed racing dragons passing through the high-rise buildings, and many lighthouse-like objects slowly floating in the sky above, which are equipped with wide-area surveillance magic to maintain the city. Security...

For more than a hundred years, Chen Mo has been living in a corner of the countryside. Even through the changes in Rulid Village, he has vaguely noticed some clues. After seeing the magical city that has undergone earth-shaking changes, it is only then that he clearly understands what the textbooks he wrote casually, as well as the decision to abolish the aristocracy and promote education, have brought to this world...

--newborn.

"Your Highness, these are all thanks to you." After entering the city, Alice did not ride the flying dragon, but walked ahead to lead Chen Mo.

The Axiom Church abolished the establishment of the Integrity Knights decades ago. Thirty-one brave knights were divided into guards in random order. At the same time, their duties changed from fighting to training subordinates. I have lived a lot more leisurely, and my body has gradually become more human, and it is no longer the hard and cold feeling of the past.

"Credit... I don't have any credit."

For Alice's compliment, Chen Mo shook his head and didn't take it seriously. Social change has never been something that can be controlled by individual power. What really brings new life to the world of Under Word is that each aborigine's commitment to a better life Yearning and longing, he just planted a seed in the hearts of these people...

Walking on the street, the eyes keep scanning the happy and satisfied expressions of the pedestrians on the street. Their unremitting efforts over the past century have turned into sunshine and rain, nourishing the seed, and only then can the towering tree with luxuriant branches and leaves grow into today.

"Your Highness, you are too self-effacing!" Hearing Chen Mo say that she has no credit, Alice suddenly stopped, she turned her head and stared at Chen Mo seriously and said: "If it weren't for what you did for the entire human world back then Contribution, now all of this will disappear like a dream, please face up to your credit!"

"For the Human World...?"

Chen Mo smiled slightly, and continued without going deep into the topic. He is not a person with such great ambitions. A whole hundred years has given him a lot of free time to think about his past experiences, good and bad, joys and sorrows... Ultimately, though, he was just pursuing self-satisfaction all along.

"Little Alice, you really hated me back then...don't rush to deny it, at least I'm pretty sure about people, why are you still flattering me now?"

"Yes... I was too immature at that time, I am really very sorry."

"I didn't ask you to apologize either..." Chen Mo shook his head and chuckled lightly: "Little Alice, remember, there has never been any savior or god in this world. It's full of bad water."

As if surprised by Chen Mo's remarks, Alice was slightly taken aback: "Your Highness...?"

"Why, don't you understand?"

Seeing Alice's bewildered expression, Chen Mo smacked his lips to end the topic, and said with some loss of interest, "Forget it, let's go."

After walking along the broad street for tens of minutes, when I stopped, a majestic Western church-style palace stood before my eyes.

Seeing this gigantic building with an area of ​​several thousand square meters, Chen Mo was a little surprised and said, "You...destroyed the Central Cathedral?"

"Yes, Your Highness." Alice nodded and said, "It was more than [-] years ago. At that time, the outer wall of the cathedral fell off due to neglect of care, and then the Council of Elders and the Citizens Assembly voted to demolish it. of."

Speaking of this, her tone suddenly weakened a little: "Your Highness... do you think there is something wrong with the newly built church?"

"It's okay, let's take it apart..."

Chen Mo sighed softly. Whether the central cathedral of the Axiom Church should be demolished or kept doesn't mean much to him. He is just a little worried. The girl who lives in the big library doesn't know what's going on now. .

"Then, please come with me here, Your Highness."

Slowly leading Chen Mo, Alice walked from the main entrance of the church into a circular hall deep in the palace. The soldiers in charge of guarding along the way seemed to be in awe of her, and all of them ignored her.

Standing still in the hall, Chen Mo turned his head left and right, and carefully looked at the furnishings in the hall. There are several circles of high-backed benches around the circular hall, and each chair is equipped with a wide and thick office wooden desk. It's like a conference hall, and at the front of the hall, there is a high platform with three steps, and the golden throne inlaid with jewels and jade is quietly placed on the high platform.

"Little Alice, is this?"

When Chen Mo's scrutiny eyes fell on the throne, Alice, who had been waiting beside her, said softly: "This is the seat that only you are qualified to sit on. It has been empty for decades, and now I have finally waited for my master... ...Please sit down, Your Highness."

"The authority of the Holy Lord, is it..."

Looking at the shining throne in front of him, which seemed to be made of jewels and gold, Chen Mo frowned slightly, and accompanied Selka to live in obscurity and seclusion among the people for a hundred years, which made his temper calm down a lot, such an exaggerated appearance like this He is really not interested in the throne.

But in any case, since Chen Mo has now chosen to return to the Axiom Church, he naturally cannot shirk this responsibility.

Quietly staring at the shining throne as if calling him, after a while, he walked up to the high platform step by step, turned around and sat down.

Just as Chen Mo sat on the throne, Alice knelt down on one knee to him again.

"Welcome back, Your Highness."

"Little Alice, you know I don't like these formalities."
