After announcing the contract between the Church of Endless Light and Seti in a few short sentences, the pastor glanced at some people at the banquet with disgust, then turned and left, as if he didn't want to stay here any longer, for fear that he would break the evil. Cut it down.

As the priest left, everyone was not calm for a long time. The king laughed in a hoarse and gloomy voice: "Haha, everyone has no doubts now. Children, you can start fighting for this throne. I came here this way. You don’t even need to shed much blood yet.”

"I would like to thank you all for your testimony. I am getting old and can no longer support myself. Let the second and fifth princes take my place and continue organizing the banquet."

The king limped away with the help of the maid. There was no one he could trust around him. Aya narrowed her eyes slightly and her eyes kept moving between the king and the young maid.

"Arnaud, are you sure?"

【Don’t you feel it too?I am sure that there is a blood connection between the two of them, and the same is true for the maid and the twelve people. 】

Lorenno said with a yawn.

When the king and the little maid came out, Aya felt the connection between them through some spiritual energy. Lorenno came out halfway and confirmed what Aya felt. The maid was probably unknown to the king. A daughter... or a relative?

In short, he has royal blood, which is interesting. An unknown royal blood is brought around, and it is impossible not to make people think blindly.

Let's report to Kenneth and the others when we get back.

Aya, who had placed herself in the auxiliary position, thought of this. At this time, Kenneth, who was helping her to block people, whispered: "Your Highness, do you want to communicate with your peers?"

The elf girl looked at the princesses and princes, as well as the nobles gathered around them, and stopped stirring the juice spoon in her hand: "What do you think, Sir Kenneth, I don't care, anyway, it will be difficult to meet directly in the future."

Kenneth looked at Aya. He had a strange feeling, as if everything was not very important in her eyes. Putting aside this thought, the Earl said: "Please go talk to them and collect information, we will leave Although I will be watching you for a while, please still be careful.”

"it is good."

The people guarding Aya gradually relaxed their guard range, but Aya still sat where she was. Gloria, who paid the most attention to Aya, noticed this first, and walked towards her with eyes brightening.

Before they could reach the elf girl, others also noticed one after another that the original blockade of the second princess had disappeared, and everyone's attention gathered again after King Ponce left.

"Your Highness Lorenno."

"Your Highness Gloria, what's the matter?"

"I just want to talk to you."

Gloria sat down next to Aya, and the other princesses and princes were already approaching. The second prince smiled and said, "Do you mind if we join in?"

"Please."

Chapter 597: Ponce is like an ancient country on the lakeside

The young people gathered together to talk. Listening to the overt and covert wooing of several members of the Ponce royal family, Aya didn't express anything. She just nodded and shook her head. When others asked, she just said a few words in a flat tone and then stopped answering. It was quite interesting. The taste of oil and salt does not enter.

Other noble children cannot get any information from Aya, and they have nothing to do about it. Who knows that Aya has the highest status among all people.

The banquet ended with a feast. Aya was the first to stand up and say goodbye. The etiquette and phrases were all within the etiquette. Kenneth and others were also waiting for her in time. Just when the diplomatic members of the empire were about to leave together, a servant came quietly. around them.

"Your Royal Highness, members of the diplomatic corps," the servant took out the king's order and said, "Your Majesty hopes that you can come over and discuss important matters."

"Please report to Your Majesty, we will go there immediately."

The few of them looked at each other for a moment, and walked towards the depths of the palace together. They were stopped before reaching the palace bedroom. The servant bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty hopes that His Highness can go in alone. He has something very important that he hopes you can agree to."

Kenneth frowned, just

When he was about to refuse, Aya raised his hand to stop him. The elf girl nodded to him to indicate that it was okay: "I'll go in, you guys wait a moment."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Since the princess herself said so, they had no choice but to let Aiya in. The elf girl stepped into the dark room. As the door closed, there was only a glimmer of light at the head of the bed. The king was lying on the bed, and the little The maid was waiting beside the king.

"Your Majesty, did you call me here?"

Aya did not salute again and asked casually. At the same time, her eyes scanned the dull bedroom. The king coughed a few times and said, "I believe your highness has noticed the difference in this child, right?"

"You can see it. What can I get if you want me to do anything?" Sadie Curtis obviously knew Lorenno's ability, and Aya did not hide the fact that she saw that this girl was his child.

"Can you make the decision for the Empire, Loreno Imperialis?"

"can."

Aya's indifferent eyes and calm tone made the king choose to believe it, and then he spoke slowly: "I hope the empire can help me take good care of this child. The key is her, and I hope she can ascend the throne."

The young maid glanced at Aya fearfully, stood up at the king's urging, then lowered her head and said: "My...my name is Sweeti, hello..."

The weak voice did not make the hard-hearted elf girl agree. She asked about the reward: "So, what can I get?"

"The contents of the entire treasure house are still up to you to choose, and you can directly control the country if you want."

"The offer is very good...but I refuse."

Aya breathed softly. The extremely rare but still lingering breath of the lower world in the air made her breathless. Suppressing the disgust in her heart, she walked directly outside. The king did not stop her in any way. After leaving, Saiti said with difficulty: "Did she see it?"

"Impossible," the maid's voice became charming, "With my hidden ability, it is absolutely impossible for me to be easily discovered, even for the Son of God. Besides, this child of yours is not disguised by me, but carries me, so it's just It’s just hard to impress her with your words, right?”

"Maybe. I originally wanted the empire to protect you and let us continue to implement the plan, but now it seems that we have to change our approach..."

Back at the embassy, ​​Aya immediately called everyone to gather and told everyone that she smelled some underworld breath in the bedroom. Kenneth and the others also remained vigilant enough, but now there is no information, and they really don’t know who What on earth is the king planning?

"Do you think it's because he wants to find a way to solve this curse in his body?"

"So many mages can't do anything. Could it be that those devils or devils in the lower world can do something?"

"That's not necessarily true. There are specialties in the art industry, or he has been on the devil's side from the beginning, and he is just pretending to be sick to better implement the plan."

Everyone was discussing this matter, and Aiya knocked on the table and said, "Call the professionals to find out if the chief priest is still there."

Soon the general of the guard invited the chief priest of Endless Light. He attached great importance to Aiya's news because he had never been to the bedroom and did not know what was going on there. Just when he was about to agree to investigate, While investigating the situation, a person responsible for collecting intelligence rushed back with important news——

Not long after Aya left, an assassin tried to assassinate Seti, but was stopped by soldiers.

"Damn it, has the matter become so serious? Even the assassination has come..."

The chief priest of Endless Light frowned. Aya recalled the information and remembered something. It was said that the capital of the Ponce Kingdom was almost connected to Purgatory a hundred or two hundred years ago. Thanks to an adventure group, it survived.

But the devils are still working tirelessly to reopen the door. If the current king dies and is replaced by someone supported by the devil, will this place become a country controlled by the devil in the future?

The most important thing is that the power of Endless Light has not radiated to this area on a large scale. This is the territory of Dark Night and Silver Moon, and it is not easy for them to govern it. Even if they bring the paladin here, it will take a while.

Although the timing of the assassination was very clever, what is more worthy of observation is the prince or princess supported by the devil, so Aya did not specifically doubt the dying old king for the time being, but just added a little caution in her attitude.

"Chief Priest, can you tell us who is stronger currently, Dark Night or Silver Moon?" Kenny asked after thinking for a moment.

"Dark Night is temporarily stronger, what's wrong?"

"What if the dark night and the devil reach an agreement?"

They once again discussed various forces. Aya shook her head and motioned for the chief priest to come out together.

……

"Sir, I need detailed information from Ponce about the connection with Purgatory."

Aya's question stunned the chief priest for a moment. He chose the lesser of the two evils. After some struggle, he decided to take responsibility for the matter and told Aya the secret news about Ponce. The chief priest said in a low voice: "This In fact, it has something to do with your mother, Her Majesty the Queen."

"If it hadn't been for her, the country of Ponce would have been destroyed by the devil."

"Let me explain the previous things briefly, and just talk about the current situation."

As the chief pastor spoke, a brief

The story formed in Aya's mind.

Chapter 598: Mutual help, mutual benefit

To put it simply, one or two hundred years ago, three people tried to get a certain devil lord to obtain enough souls from Ponce. They were an evil mage, a devil who was good at manipulating people's hearts, and a noble who wanted immortality in terms of his soul.

They gathered together to perform a horrific ritual, making the entire Ponce almost as demon-ridden as the previous ancient city, and all souls were pulled into hell.

Fortunately, with the help of the adventure group headed by Majnus Imperys, Ponce was rescued, and she also got what she wanted in this operation. (PS: The details will be explained in the prequel not knowing how long it will take.)

"As for what it is, you have to ask your mother."

The chief priest shrugged and continued to tell that after that crisis, Ponce regained his composure - on the surface, in fact, there were still some cunning devils hiding in the darkness.

Ponce is not like the Empire, where there are vampires, undead creatures in the sewers, etc. If you want to clean up these demons, you have to do it step by step. In the past 200 years, they have almost been cleaned up, but unfortunately there are still some hidden deeper.

The most important thing is that although Ponce was not pulled down, there are still residual effects, and he has become closer to purgatory. There is also a crack sealed deep in the royal treasury. If those hidden devils gain power, it is very likely that Reopen the cracks and let some devil lord pull Ponce down.

Although there are two churches on the surface to help, in reality there is one who cares more about whether believers will believe in them. Dark Night will only sit back and watch things happen and then secretly protect its own believers, and may even hinder Silver Moon.

Unless the one who takes the throne is their choice.

"Does that mean that once the crack is opened by someone with intentions, all the people in Ponce City will die?"

"Not all of them, but most of them. The rest still have to be chased by the devil."

"Is there any way to temporarily prevent this?" Ponce is an ally of the empire after all, and is still conducting transactions with the empire. It would be better if it can be preserved.

Hearing this question, the head pastor seemed to have something to hide. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Yes, I do, but I need your help."

"Then let's talk. Her Majesty the Queen probably sent me here to help."

Upon hearing that her help was needed, Aya guessed why she had to come to this city. It was probably to ensure that the country of Ponce would not be completely divided due to the destruction of Ponce City.

"Please come with me to Silver Moon Church."

……

After getting on the carriage, Aya arrived at the Silver Moon Church under the protection of the fireworks team. The silver-white church showed gentleness and the brightness of the moonlight. Aya and the pastor stepped into it, and the pastor of the Silver Moon Church came out immediately.

"Ms. Silver Star, this is His Highness Lorenno, who came to help us on the order of the Queen of the Empire."

The chief priest, who has the title of Elite Priest [Silver Star], nodded slightly and then saluted Aiya: "Your Highness, thank you for your help."

"I'm just here to help during this time, what should I do?"

"plz follow me."

The pastors of the Good Church basically know the importance. Although there is currently a competitive relationship with the empire, they can still cooperate in order to prevent the invasion of the lower world.

Following the priest into the deeper part of the temple, Aya saw the rippling pond and the small and exquisite garden. Soon she came to a moon-like device. The priest began to introduce this thing:

"This is a legendary item that can be used to stabilize space, but it must be activated by a divine creature. The specific activation principle is to pour the power of faith into the divine creature, and then spread the transformed fluctuations. Silver Moon The church acts as an anchor to stabilize the situation.”

"Can ordinary divine creatures also do it?"

"Yes, but certainly not as good as a Son of God."

"Will it affect me?"

"Yes, you will reap huge benefits, and you will be able to experience the power of faith in advance by understanding and using it."

Speaking of this, the priest's expression was a little helpless, as if he had been taken advantage of. Aya nodded after hearing this. It turned out that there was another reason for sending her here.

"Do I need to stay here forever?"

"It used to be necessary, but now the space stabilizer sub-body can be fixed on you by carving incantations. You can move around Ponce at will, but you need to be careful not to damage its core engraved position, otherwise it will be completely destroyed. Have you chosen where to put the painting?"

"Then here it is."

Aya takes off her clothes, revealing her perfect body.

An hour later.

When the elf girl came out of the temple, she could feel the power of faith that did not belong to her flow through her body, and then through her divinity, it turned into another more wonderful thing and flowed out and reassembled into the Silver Moon Temple, and then from the temple spread.

In this circulation, Aya found that the connection between herself and the long-lost believer Embella became clearer.

"What is Embella doing now?"

Lorenno used his senses to take a look and found that the girl was enduring the pain and doing flexibility training. In order not to hinder her practice, the half-elf looked at it for a while and then came back. He excitedly said to his elder sister: "Sister, the Internet speed just became faster. A lot!"

"

yes. "

Aya responded in a low voice, got on the carriage, and closed her eyes. What no one expected was that as the fluctuations spread, the range of plant perception changed from kilometers to——

The whole city!

"Go find all the devils and members of the Church of the Night."

Regardless of whether it was Ms. Silver Moon's help or her own ability, Aya directly notified all the plants to look for traces of devils and members of the Church of the Dark Night, and prepared to help the Silver Moon Church.

……

In the palace treasury, the "daughter" dressed as a maid next to Seth Curtis stood in front of a dark crack blocked by countless spells, silently reciting something, and the spell chains collapsed at an extremely slow speed.

But suddenly, a wave of waves swept through the dark crack. The crack that was originally expanding closed instantly under the action of the wave, and the escaping impact knocked Sweeti away.
