Those who believe in heretics, die!

Those who believe in heresy, die!

These three words of death are the attitude of fanatical believers towards other people.

This is also the source of Diana's early hostility to Matthew.

Matthew originally thought that Diana would change her mind after receiving short-term training and seeing the darkness of the Holy See, but he did not expect that Diana would still go her own way.

No, she did change, that is, turning the Holy See from a fellow traveler to a heretic.

Looking into Diana's fiery eyes, Matthew nodded.

"it is good!"

"But what happened to these three tribes can't happen again."

"Wen Leiya is right. Although they are our enemies, they are humans, not beasts."

Seeing that Diana was about to make a lofty speech, Matthew quickly stopped her and said, "Think about it from another angle. The reason why they have wrong beliefs is just because we did not spread the light here. They are lost lambs."

"If you insist, the responsibility lies with us!"

Diana thought for a moment and accepted Matthew's argument. She said with a serious expression: "Matthew, you are right. This time I will spread the glory of the Lord of Holy Light to this land."

"To achieve this, I have two requests."

Matthew breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself, as long as you can change your mind, what are just two requests?

He smiled and said, "Please tell me."

"First, we have to uproot the Holy Land of Immortality! I know this is difficult, but I hope you can help me!"

Matthew originally wanted to say that there was a demigod-level strongman on the other side, but thinking that this demigod-level strongman was probably coming to kill him, he had no objection.

He nodded and agreed to Diana's request.

It is indeed difficult, but as long as you kill the opponent's demigod-level strongman, everything is possible.

"The second thing is that this purification operation captured a lot of grassland women. I hope to select some of them and distribute them to my soldiers so that they can influence these women who have gone astray."

Matthew looked at Deanna, dumbfounded.

Although this sounds nice, the translation means that the girls under my command will be picked first by the girls under my command.

It wouldn't be out of place to say this from any general, but it was only from Diana's mouth that shocked Matthew.

Is this still the same Diana who drove the carriage to save the pregnant woman?

Looking at Diana's clear eyes, Matthew quickly figured it out.

Diana never changed.

Distributing these prairie women to her soldiers was the best arrangement in her mind.

Sure enough, as if seeing through Matthew's doubts, Diana quickly added: "Don't worry, the soldiers under my command are all real knights, and these women will not be treated as slaves."

"I will ask them to treat these women as wives or legal lovers and give them power protection."

It turned out to be the case.

Although this treatment is a bit strange, it is indeed the best way to deal with these women.

Some of these women had lost their fathers, some had lost their husbands, and there was a high probability that they would be sold into slavery. They were already very frightened and needed someone to take care of them.

The knights of the Knights did not participate in the crusade against their tribe, and their moral standards were higher than those of ordinary warriors. It would be a good way out for them to serve these knights.

Matthew was not worried that they would resist.

On the grasslands, the fate of women after their tribes were exterminated was very miserable. Most of them would be sold as slaves. Being able to be taken into the account of the conquerors as concubines was the blessing of the Immortal God.

Prairie people have always respected the strong and despised the weak.

Their way of thinking is completely different from that of farming civilization.

When Matthew killed their husbands, they would wipe their tears, dress up carefully, and warm Matthew's bed that night.

Wearing mourning, observing chastity, or even committing suicide for your dead husband?That is a habit in farming areas. What does it have to do with prairie people?

For the women of these three tribes, the life of the original tribe has long been a thing of the past.

All they were thinking about now was how to dress up and how to please the new owner.

loyalty?Like the men on the grassland, they are only loyal to the strong.

The military meeting lasted for three hours. Matthew made final arrangements for the upcoming decisive battle and then adjourned the meeting.

After walking out of the tent, when Deanna was about to leave, Shirley caught up with her.

Deanna slowed down and kept pace with Shirley.

Looking at Shirley's profile, Diana always felt as if she was from another world.

Just a few years ago, they came to Matthew's territory on the same day, both with the mission of killing Matthew.

However, the arrangement of fate is always unexpected, and they actually became Matthew's contractors later.

The improved contract has benefited them a lot, and their cultivation progress has been far faster than what they could have done alone.

Not only that, Shirley also chose to become a woman and become Matthew's wife.

Although there were many twists and turns in the process, the result was good, and that was enough.

And she has become Matthew's ally. With Matthew's help, her plan to rebuild the Holy See is no longer empty talk.

Neither Matthew's friends nor his enemies doubt his ability to change the situation.

Previously, due to the competitive relationship between the Walder Knights and the Angel Legion, her relationship with Shirley was not particularly good, but after all, they had the same beliefs, and they had some things in common.

Seeing Shirley's rounder and fuller face at this time, and the happy smile that could not be concealed in her eyes, Deanna felt happy for her from the bottom of her heart.

Although Shirley lost her parents and brother, she still had Matthew.

Seeing Shirley hesitate to speak, Diana smiled and teased:

"Shirley, when did we become so alienated?"

"Does it mean that because you have become Matthew's wife, you look down on your comrades who have fought alongside you?"

Shirley pursed her lips in embarrassment and chuckled, then gave Diana a pink punch.

Of course she knew Deanna was joking.

"Diana, I'm a little curious. Did you just..."

She wanted to say how you supported Matthew just now, but thinking of Diana's nature as a fanatical believer, she stopped mid-sentence.

Diana's expression gradually became serious, and she said seriously: "Shirley, although I am a devout believer, I will not wield a knife against infidels for no reason."

"At least we have to make sure that they can't be civilized before we take action."

"Didn't you notice just now? Wen Leiya has made Matthew angry."

"It's impossible to resurrect the dead, but we can stop unnecessary killings in the future. If Wen Leiya really angers Matthew, he might order more killings."

Shirley was stunned, she didn't think so much.

To be precise, since marrying Matthew, she has become less and less fond of using her brain.

Matthew always made the right decision anyway, so why should she think about it.

Diana's words reminded her.

Indeed, Matthew's identity has changed, and his character is also very different from before.

When he was a young earl, he would not care even if he was reprimanded loudly in person.

But he is a king now, and may even be an emperor in the future, a god-level powerhouse.

A change in status can change a lot.

Wen Leiya is a kind girl who advocates nature and harmony, which is a good thing.But when she contradicted Matthew in public, she seemed a bit patronizing and arrogant.

Shirley thought silently. Compared with other lords, Matthew was already very tolerant.

If Matthew had a bad temper, Wen Leiya would have been killed long ago.

She said nagging: "What should we do? Shall we go and persuade Wen Leiya?"

"What are you advising? She is an adult...according to our human standards, she is indeed an adult, not a child. She should understand some truths by herself. If you can't figure this out, you will only be asking for trouble."

Shirley nodded and said with a smile: "Wen Leiya is a soft-hearted guy. Maybe she can't figure it out, but she probably won't continue to fight against Matthew. Let her go."

"I'm a little curious, what do you think, why do you insist on taking those female prisoners?"

"Because they are really pitiful."

Diana murmured softly: "I can't change anything, I can only make their future less difficult."

"The noble knights under my command may look down on them, but the social status of those infantrymen and knights before joining the army is not high. It is difficult to find a wife, and it is even harder to find an obedient wife."

"Prairie women are used to being submissive. As long as they have a family, they are willing to sacrifice anything. They are hardworking and family-oriented, which is indeed a good choice for these low-level soldiers."

"It's a win-win, right?"

Thinking of Matthew's favorite word, Diana wanted to laugh inexplicably.

Matthew doesn’t just talk about win-win, he also does it.

I was actually led astray by this guy without even realizing it.

Diana complained silently in her heart.

"Family?"

The word brought back memories for Shirley.

As expected, time can dilute everything. She has been able to face the death of her parents and brothers calmly. Her current home was built with Matthew and her sisters.

She cherished this home.

Seeing the raised corners of Deanna's mouth, Shirley asked softly: "Deanna, have you ever thought about having a family?"

Diana suddenly looked back at Shirley, her eyes changing from sharp to confused. After a long time, she said slowly:

"I have a family. The Lord of Holy Light is my mother, and you are my family. My family is very happy."

After saying this, Diana casually found an excuse to leave.

Seeing her disappearing from the end of the field of vision like lightning, Shirley knew that her heart was never as peaceful as her appearance.

......

Returning to her tent, Wen Leiya used a barrier to isolate everything, covered her head with a quilt, and cried loudly.

She is very sad.

She was not a fool, and of course she knew that Matthew had to do this out of necessity.

If it were another protagonist, she would never be so sad.

But he was Matthew, and that was the only light in her life.

People may tolerate darkness under the sun, but who can accept that the sun itself is darkness?

All Wen Leiya's beautiful vision for the world lies in Matthew.

Matthew rescued her from the dirty slave ship and threw out gold coins to buy her. She looked as tall as a god, which will forever be engraved in the heart of the elf girl.

Matthew gave her a new life, gave her the opportunity to practice magic, and gave her everything.

She shouldn't have disobeyed Matthew, but she just felt uncomfortable.

She could accept that anyone was imperfect, but she could not accept that Matthew was as filthy as the other lords.

She also knew it was selfish to think this way, but she just couldn't control her emotions.

After crying for an unknown amount of time, Wen Leiya finally woke up from the deep nightmare. She lifted the quilt and sat up blankly.

"Matthew, Matthew, can you be like you used to be? Even if you just pretend to lie to me. Wen Leiya really liked you before, woo woo woo..."

Just when Wen Leiya's vision was blurred by tears and she was sobbing and talking nonsense, a soft voice sounded.

"Yes, and I'm not lying to you."

Wen Leiya was stunned. She turned around quickly and saw Matthew standing beside the bed, wearing a moon-white magician's robe and looking at her tenderly with a sunny smile.

This set of clothes was exactly the one they wore when they first met.
