Demon Sage

v2 Chapter 207: promise

? Among the various religious systems of the Ryan Empire, when it comes to teachings, naturally, each has its own merits, and there are often conflicts with each other. In severe cases, religious wars may even break out.

It is not uncommon for some sects with different doctrines to fight over a point of view, and even God gives apostles to appear on the stage to "speak the truth".

But the major denominations also have similarities in some areas not related to doctrine.

For example, the system within the denomination and the titles of various positions.

In terms of title, the major sects are strict to the point of being meticulous.

Local religious buildings can only be called a certain church, or some other names with specific meanings.

And the "temple" suffix in the temple of justice mentioned by Nancy is not something that can be added casually.

Often only a religion's true birthplace is eligible to be named a temple suffix.

The birthplace here is not a general term for a broad area, but a specific area.

That is, the place where miracles come, the place where the gods favor.

The first pope must have been born here.

"The temple of the sect of justice seems to be in the inland area of ​​the Ryan Empire, right?"

"Of course, and it's very far from Demingham, so I said it's a long trip. If you can get there in a day or two, do you still need to **** you all the way?"

Nancy said it as a matter of course, which made Donald sitting across from her speechless for a while.

He didn't speak, and Nancy didn't speak either. After a while, the latter went out the door very casually, and when he came back, he had an extra plate of dried fruit in his hand.

"What are you doing to bring Julia to the Temple of Justice?"

When the dried fruit platter was eaten with only dregs left, Donald asked helplessly.

If the words were spoken, it meant that he was actually thinking about accepting the matter.

No way, just like what Nancy said before, Donald has met too many conditions, and now he is favored by Semir and others, and he still owes so much favor to Nancy. things are up.

"Since you have agreed, you are qualified to know some things, because we have no way to solve the problem of the Holy Son, and this matter must be properly handled. Once an accident occurs, it may cause a very bad situation, so in our few days After personal discussion, I feel that the Justice Sect is the best solution, bringing the soul and body to the Temple of Justice and reuniting them, and let the people of the Temple of Justice handle it."

"Why are you so sure that the Righteous Sect can solve this problem... have you checked?"

Donald did not understand how this conclusion was reached.

"Of course not. If you ask them for confirmation, you must send a letter. In case the news leaks along the way, who can guarantee that there will be no second saintess who will stare at it. Just solving this now has paid such a huge price, Germany Mingham can't stand the second devastation, let alone we can wait, the soul and body of this holy son can't wait."

In this era, long-distance information transmission still has to rely on letters, because a considerable part of the Lane Empire is still in a relatively backward living state, not to mention telephone lines, even telegrams may not be connected.

Demingham went to the Temple of Justice, even if it was to send a professional postman, it would take at least a few months to go back and forth, and by then it would be too late.

Before Donald could speak, Nancy continued.

"Think about it for yourself, if I force a bomb on you, would you take it? Well, you seem to really want it... But you're also a rewarding job, righteous sect. We don’t plan to pay, we need to ask for evidence in advance. What if the Justice Church refuses to help? The Holy Son is a long-awaited secret weapon for some evil forces, but for those of us, it’s a hot potato. Justice The sect is not a subordinate department of the empire. If you want to deal with things of this level, you will naturally have to pay a lot of money. Tube."

The place where the Temple of Justice is located must be the belief area of ​​the Justice Sect.

The practice of Nancy and others is very simple. The bomb is placed at the door of the Temple of Justice.

If they don't deal with it, they will be the first to bear the brunt of it.

"Isn't this a hooligan?"

No matter how Donald listened to it, he felt that there was an air of robber logic in the plan.

"Donald, you don't think this kind of thing can be put on the table to negotiate slowly, don't use this method, rely on the official relationship to contact, don't think about it, so your task is very simple, I don't care about you In what way, within a year, Julia will appear near the Temple of Justice, and you can't reveal that you are a government employee in the middle, because this is a secret operation, and you also said, this is what hooligans do, We are the Demingham government, so naturally we would not do such a thing."

Throwing the last raisin into her mouth, Nancy said it without hesitation.

"That's it...then I understand something."

What was it? understand what?

Donald didn't say a word, just mumbled.

His mouth indicated that he fully understood the situation, but under Donald's drooping eyelids, his eyes were still deep, even dark.

This made his whole temperament a little weird at this moment.

Donald is clearly sitting in the chair, but always exudes a strange atmosphere.

He seems to be hard to look at when he wears a black-gray robe while using the Tome of Domination.

Nancy sat opposite, but her eyes were on the wall clock on the wall.

She seemed to notice the change in Donald, but said nothing.

As for Julia, because she didn't understand what they said, she had already gone to the other side of the cabin, lying at the window and looking at the sea.

This is her first time out to sea.

If nothing else, the sea should not be seen in the next few years.

When Donald raised his head again, the look in Nancy's eyes returned to normal, but with a little more imperceptible alertness and vigilance.

You must know that the relationship between Nancy and Donald has always been allies rather than friends, but never to the level of complete mutual trust.

Granted, Donald owes Nancy a lot of things and favors.

But if the debt relationship between the debtor and the creditor can be turned into something that promotes camaraderie, what do so many debt collectors do?

What Nancy said, the so-called solution to the Son's problem or those robber logic.

Donald may believe it, but not all.

As usual, if there is enough time, he will think about it and think about the hidden meaning behind it.

However, the current government's anxiety is almost superficial.

They can't wait to get this thing out of the way or push it forward.

Donald was the chosen one, and now even the only one.

If he does not agree, the government will "find a way" to make him agree.

"Can I make some demands? Don't get me wrong, of course it's not for you, I owe you enough, and this task should be repaid, but the government's side... Those high-class people let their servants buy vegetables. I have to give some tips, there is no reward for my **** trip, shouldn't it?"

Since you can't resist, then enjoy it. Donald agrees with this.

In a short period of time, he must not understand what special purpose is hidden behind this mission.

Then, for the time being, we will not think about these or not, but will consider some more realistic things.

Isn't the government eager to send people away?

Okay, the benefits are in place, Donald just treats this as a high-risk, high-reward mission.

Who hasn't struggled yet?

"Of course, you can speak what you want, and I can tell them on your behalf, but you took something. If you can't do it, the consequences will be very serious. Those people are all elites. This mission , of course it will not be just a verbal agreement."

This **** was in a sense the most critical part of the plan, and although Nancy believed in Donald's credibility, the others must have other insurance.

Any empty promise is not as real as a soul contract.

"In one night, you can slowly think about your conditions. It's better to give me a list tomorrow morning. Don't disturb your rest. Goodbye."

Nancy got up, still holding the dried fruit plate, and left neatly.

Only Donald and Julia, who had returned, were left.

"Leek, how could you be involved in this kind of thing?"

It's just the two of them, so it's natural to call them whatever they're used to.

"I don't know, this seems to be the only reason why I am alive, maybe the purpose of my life is to participate in this plan..."

At this time, Julia is no longer strong in front of the Shelleys, and she is no longer indifferent in front of Nancy like nothing has happened.

There were tears in his eyes, and they didn't fall, but looked at Donald a little stubbornly.

"Hey, I, the person who took over the task of escorting you to the Temple of Justice, didn't cry. What are you so sad about? It's me who is the hardest in this task, not you. You can just treat it as a long-distance trip. Didn't you always complain to me that you didn't have time to go out to play, isn't it okay to go out and have a good time this time?"

Supporting his left cheek with one hand and holding Julia's cheek with his right hand.

Finger slipped out of Donald's coat and slumped over the table.

Stare at the girl who used to always want to hug it.

"Hello Finger, you seem to be getting fat again... Brother Donald, are you willing to protect me?"

Julia's face improved a little, she took two breaths, but a snot bubble came out.

He quickly blushed and went to the side to wipe.

"You are related to all my rewards. If I don't protect you, who else can I protect?"

Donald looked at Julia, who had been busy beside her and her mood suddenly dropped, pursed her lips, and suddenly said again,

"Leek, speaking of which you are a bit like my previous experience."

"what?"

Julia turned around and looked at Donald suspiciously.

"A few months ago, I was like you, I couldn't help myself, I had to look at people's faces, and many times I had to do things I didn't like, but I had to comfort myself in my heart, thinking that as long as I survived the situation in front of me. Difficulty, the future is sure to be bright.”

Donald rarely shares with people what he encountered when he first came into this world.

The predicament at that time still makes his heart feel cold when he thinks about it now.

"Did you make it through?"

"What a little idiot, if I can't make it through, how can I sit here talking to you now, maybe, I've already become a fool who can't even speak well, you wait... "

Get up from the chair and walk to the door of the room, open the door, and shout to the side,

"Stephanie, get me some food and drink, some more."

"It must have been hard work then."

By the time Donald took his seat, Julia was sitting where Nancy had been, her chin resting on her folded arms, her fingers sliding back and forth along the curved lines of the tabletop.

"The hard work is for sure. To be honest, my situation at that time was worse than yours. There was a group of people who wanted me to become a fool, a group of people who wanted me to die, and a group of people who wanted to cheat from me... ... at least you don't have to worry about your life now, right?"

From the current Donald's mouth, the purpose of those people is very straightforward, and the danger is not explained in detail, but even so, Julia still shrank her head in fear.

"And then what?"

Julia's attention was all attracted by Zhu Jue, and her previous mood improved immediately.

After all, he is still a child, and bad emotions come and go quickly.

"Those who want to make me a fool should have survived. She was the closest person in name to me at that time. Now, she should hate me to death... It's normal, after all, before that , I hate her too, I can feel that feeling."

"Those who wanted me to die belong to a cult, and I solved it by borrowing a knife to kill them. It is estimated that none of them are left."

"And the last two people who wanted to deceive me were discovered by me in advance, and the consequences were similar to those of the cult."

As he spoke, Donald seemed to see the scene of the last game in front of him again.

Thinking about it now, it ended in the church of the Justice Sect at that time. I didn't expect that this time it was actually related to the Justice Sect.

Julia opened her mouth and seemed to want to say something, and happened to see Stephanie walking in with a big plate~lightnovelpub.net~ followed by Lilo, so she fell into silence a little shyly. .

"Let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend, Stephanie Quick, this is my cousin Lilo Grant, she is more afraid of life than you, so she usually doesn't talk much, so I introduced them to you. We know each other because they will come with us in the future."

The identity of a high-level undead is really inconvenient to say, and Donald can only introduce it with the excuse he prepared before.

"Let's go? Donald, what happened, I felt something was wrong when you stayed..."

When Stephanie heard Donald's words, she leaned over nervously and asked in a low voice.

"When things are determined, I will tell you in detail, and now I can only say that we may have a long trip."

Of course Donald couldn't have been alone on the road with Julia.

Although he has not been in Demingham for a long time, he is a bit of a team now.
