I am a baa baa sheep

"Besides, if he dares to defect, the Black Knight will definitely hunt him down to the end of the world."

"The Black Knight, another Punisher?"

"Well, he is the leader of the Punisher, with extraordinary strength and exceptional loyalty to the church."

"Sounds good, but isn't he also a pervert?"

"Just treat him as a handy tool"

"Oh"

"Sasha, can we continue?"

Leonard looked at the little girl's expression: "There are thirteen punishers in total, look..."

"I can"

The little girl was not intimidated by the gourmet, she behaved very calmly.

"I'm very upset, but that's all."

"Teacher, call the next one."

VOLUME 017: CHAPTER [-] THE BLACK KNIGHT

"They're all terrible people..."

Although Leonard would plug the little girl's earplugs as soon as he talked about the key points, Sasha can outline the general life trajectory of the punishers only based on the part he heard.

"Thank you very much this time, Sasha, you helped me a lot."

Leonard was obviously very close to the little girl, he said with a smile: "It's boring to stay by my side all the time, isn't it? I'll ask Zon to take you out for a walk tomorrow."

Bishop Zorn, the Pope's deputy, Leonard's true confidant.

"OK"

Finally, I can go out to get some air, and the little girl is very happy.

With brisk steps, Sasha said, "Teacher, I want to ask about the black knight."

"Curious about him?"

"Well, after all, he didn't repent at all, he just chatted with me for a while."

Among the punishers, the performance of the black knight was quite abnormal.

He did not tell his bitterness (sin), nor did he ask the goddess for forgiveness at the end.

Just like a big brother next door, he talked to the little girl about interesting or boring things in a gentle tone the whole time.

"The Black Knight's family is very poor. When he was twelve or thirteen years old, he was sold by his family to a black-hearted farmer as a child laborer."

"Because the oppression was so severe that within a year he escaped while the farmer was out."

"Escaped?"

The little girl was very surprised: "He, didn't he kill the whole family of the farmer?"

"Sasha, not everyone is a murderer." Leonard said solemnly.

"..."

"Well, let's go on. After the boy escaped, life was just as difficult."

"The main thing is that there is no food to eat. In the era of food shortage, no one is willing to give him precious food."

"As a last resort, the boy went to the battlefield."

"He became a soldier?"

"No, he became a hyena, living off the corpses of the battle."

"Suddenly became a cannibal?!"

"...I mean, he forages for food from the dead."

"This industry is highly competitive. Not only does he have to compete with his peers, but he also has to face greedy adults in many cases."

"After surviving several times, the boy became ruthless. Well, at this moment, he finally has the shadow of a black knight."

"After growing up a bit, one day, a question suddenly arose in the boy's heart: he has sound limbs, is young and strong, why does he have to eat from dead people?"

"I want to eat fresh food, and I want to eat as much as I want every day. With this kind of 'ambition', the boy recruited a group of young people who were also unwilling, and became the periphery of a certain mercenary group."

"Three years later, everyone else died, and only he became an official mercenary."

"..."

"Teacher, what then?"

"Then he kept honing his killing skills on the battlefield, and as he killed more and more people, he gained the title of 'Black Knight'."

"The black knight was finally able to open his stomach and eat, but after killing too many people, he became numb and empty, and finally had to seek spiritual sustenance."

"He took the initiative to join the church, and after being valued by me, he became a discipliner."

"It seems, a bit ordinary."

The little girl compared the curious and distorted lives of other punishers, and found that the experience of the black knight can only be described as ordinary.

"Isn't 'ordinary' very good, because of 'ordinary', he is closer to normal people, so he can be used by me more."

"Speaking of which, teacher, why do you know so much about the Black Knight's experience?"

"I have heard his confession."

"teacher......"

The little girl looked at him quite speechlessly: "The content of the confession you heard must not be told to others."

"You are an envoy, not 'someone else'."

After finishing speaking, Leonard reminded again: "Sasha, don't tell anyone about the confession you heard today."

"..."

The little girl couldn't complain, so she nodded under Leonard's gaze.

"what"

"how?"

"Suddenly I found a problem. The black knight also confessed normally at the beginning, so how did it become a small talk?"

Leonard froze for a moment, showing a thoughtful expression.

"You put it this way...his confession seems to have turned into small talk before he knew it."

"Eh?"

"Tomorrow the Black Knight will be responsible for your and Zorn's safety. If you are interested in this issue, you can talk to him."

.......................................................................

Bishop Zorn is a fanatical admirer of Leonard, because the Pope attaches great importance to the little girl, and coupled with her title of envoy, the second in command of the church directly regards the little girl as his superior.

To be honest, Sasha was really surprised by his attitude.

The more attentive this man is, the more awkward the little girl feels.

"Bishop Zorn"

"Here, what is the envoy's command?" The man nodded and bowed.

No, you are also a role in the church where one person is under one person and above ten thousand people. Why is it so frustrating?

Opened the horizon of faith and reconfirmed, well, yes, another unbelievers.

Since he is an unbeliever, he should not place too much emphasis on his status as an "angel envoy".

"Bishop Zorn, just call me Sasha." The little girl tried to get close.

"How about that!"

Unexpectedly, Zon suddenly turned pale with shock: "You are an envoy of God and a disciple of the Pope, and you will definitely be in charge of the church in the future."

"There is a difference between high and low, and there is a difference between high and low. How can I call you by your name?"

"..."

What do you mean?

Sasha was a little uncertain if this guy was mocking herself.

'I never thought of robbing you of your power, it's better to speak clearly. '

The little girl didn't want to have multiple enemies for no reason, so she said seriously: "Bishop Zorn, you are overthinking. I am the messenger of God, and I am not greedy for power."

"Master Divine Envoy is a noble character, he is really a role model for my generation!"

"Ha~"

Well, the guy is an unbeliever, so it doesn't help.

"I have little qualifications and no prestige."

The little girl said sincerely: "In the future, the church will definitely entrust you with such..."

"I can't do it!"

Before Sasha finished speaking, Zon shook his head again and again.

"My lord envoy, I don't have the ability to lead others. Becoming the assistant of the Pope and helping him with all my heart is already the limit of what I can do."

"It really puts me in that position..."

"Whether it is for me or for the church, it will be a huge disaster."

"My lord envoy, Zon will also assist you wholeheartedly in the future, please take care of me!"

The man bowed to the little girl again and again, his face was so sincere that he didn't look like he was lying.

Volume 018: Chapter [-] Doubt

"You're welcome, you're welcome."

The little girl laughed, she didn't listen to what Zon said.

What kind of person this man is, you can go back and ask your cheap teacher.

Although she was still wary of Zon, this did not prevent the little girl from having a conversation with him.

"We are going to preach in a nearby village this time. Do you need me to do anything?"

"My lord envoy, just watch it for the first time."

Zon smiled and said, "I'll show you first, and next time you can do it yourself."

"This village should have a road before, right?"

"That's right, the people in the village are all devout believers of the goddess. But recently the village chief has accepted a group of refugees, and our sermon this time is mainly aimed at these refugees."

"Wow, the village head is really a kind person."

The little girl felt a little admiration for the village head she had never met. These days, there are not many villages willing to take in refugees.

Zon didn't know much about Sasha, he seemed to have misunderstood what the little girl meant.

"My lord, the refugees accepted are all young and strong."

Zon carefully explained: "They use their labor in exchange for food, and it won't drag down the village."

"Besides, if you don't accept these refugees, there will be no more people in the village for the next conscription, and the village chief can't do anything..."

The smile on the little girl's face disappeared, and she was silent for a while.

"I wasn't blaming the village chief just now, alas, it's not easy for everyone."

"Bishop Zorn, does the church often recruit soldiers from nearby villages?"

"En. My lord, we also know that frequent blood draws in villages are damaging to the foundation of the church, but there is really nothing we can do about it."

Zorn said heavily: "No, we can't fight against the Brotherhood of the Black Hand at all."
