Chapter 17 The Witch and the Bishop
Frankly admit that I am a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death!
This is the first time Ronan has seen such an interesting woman.
……
After a whirlwind, the two appeared somewhere in a mysterious white space.
Seeing that she was unconsciously transported to a mysterious place in the blink of an eye, and recalling the incredible beam of magic light just now, Lilani took a deep breath and directly knelt down.
"No matter what I do, as long as I can save my life, I am willing to die for my lord!"
she said so.
Lilani, the sixth-ring mage, is a disciple of the six giants of the Pan-Continental Mage Association, the "Wandering Sage".
Rumor has it that this Ms. Lilani was born extremely beautiful, and even showed a powerful mage talent since she was a child. She was directly discovered by the mage association at that time, and directly became a disciple of the "Wandering Sage".
More than 20 years later, she started from scratch and became a six-ring mage. She is a natural mage seed and is highly valued by the association.
There are even more rumors that the "Wandering Sage" has a high probability of proposing to pass on his position to this youngest disciple.
In a word.
Lilani, who is beautiful, has a strong character, and is strong, is recognized as the mainstay of the Mage Association.
Tables and chairs appeared at random, and Ronan sat down lightly, read Lilani's messages one by one with a smile on his face, and finally asked.
"Humans are afraid of death! Especially you mages who pursue the truth!"
"Isn't the mantra on the forehead of your Mage Association - is it worth dying on the path of pursuing the truth? Why would you, the mainstay, surrender to me so easily?"
Facing such a sharp question from Ronan, Lilani took a deep breath and replied.
"It's worth dying on the road to the truth! But knowing that I'm facing an existence so powerful that it can crush me with a single finger, greed for life and fear of death may be the truth."
Yo!
It's a unique idea, and I like it.
"Get up." Ronan waved his hand, placed Lilani on the opposite chair, and said, "Since you understand the situation so well, then I won't beat around the bush."
"This is a contract. You can read it and sign it if there is no problem."
Say it.
A parchment flew to Lilani's eyes.
Lilani took a deep breath, opened the scroll, and then her pupils shrank.
……
After Ronan made an excuse to go to the toilet and came back, the audience in the whole theater had almost left.
Vivienne and the guards were waiting for Ronan at the door. Seeing that it took him so long to come back, there was a burst of complaints.
Ronan touched his head with a smile and fooled it.
After a long time, the huge theater became empty, and Lilani with a heavy face came out from behind.
She looked at the direction where Ronan disappeared, her eyes were confused, and she stood still.
That night.
Ronan inspected the entire castle building with his mental power.
Father is not there, mother and third sister have fallen asleep peacefully, the eldest sister has gone back to the border, and the second sister is still in the country for her honeymoon, after confirming all the circumstances.
A space transfer, came to [Witch's House].
Here, the witches who have already received orders are fully armed and waiting for Ronan's arrival.
Sensing the space fluctuation, all the girls quickly lowered their heads and said in unison: "Master."
The head maid, Gwendelyn, bowed respectfully: "Master, according to your order, I have summoned the seventh "Humus", the fifth "Evocation" and the third "Natural Disaster", and I will obey your orders."
"Ah."
Looking at the three people except Gwendelyn, Ronan nodded, and the three orders in his hands flew to the palms of the three.
"The target this time is the archbishop of the southern province! According to intelligence, he is suspicious by nature and powerful. He commands at least three teams of covenant keepers. You should be careful on this trip, and don't overturn in the gutter."
"Yes." X3
After a respectful salute, the three witches wearing sterling silver masks tore through the space and went to the mission location.
Gwendelyn also retreated out politely, and Ronan was the only one left in the huge room.
After traveling to this world, Ronan has been quietly accumulating strength, and at the same time secretly taking care of the Stuart family from which he was born.
As one of the aristocrats with the deepest history and heritage in the cold winter, the Steyatt family has no forces in the country who dare to face it head-on, but it is secretly treacherous.
Not long ago.
Ronan received the information from Wuguang.
The information shows that in the southern province of the Winter Empire, Earl Lulian, who had always disagreed with the preaching of the Slaine Theocracy, suddenly died suddenly. After his eldest son Kerry inherited the title, he changed his father’s previous The policies left behind are now actively catering to the church. In just half a month, stately churches have blossomed everywhere, and the civilians in the entire south are almost oppressed and exploited to rebel!
In this regard, the royal family did not take any action, which is really strange.
But... Ronan has ideas.
Whether the royal family cares about the stability of the southern province, Ronan doesn't care, what he cares about is - the southern province is the place where Lindong borders the southern continent, and the headquarters of his Violet Chamber of Commerce is located there.
The group of religious lunatics in Theocracy had an inexhaustible greed for power. First they obtained the right to preach, and then they would definitely find a way to control the power of the entire southern province in their own hands.
Ronan couldn't tolerate this!
The Slaine Theocracy, this crazy religious country is one of the most powerful forces on the entire continent.
As far as the Stuart family alone is concerned, they are indeed difficult to deal with, but Ronan is different.
The purpose that Ronan has always adhered to is to nip danger in the bud.
Although there is no apparent hostility between the two now, it does not prevent Ronan from blacklisting The Theocracy.
As for the forces that were blacklisted by Ronan, that's one word——
kill!
Winter Empire, Southern Province, in a newly built glorious cathedral.
A majestic, tall middle-aged man with falcon-like eyes was praying in front of a gigantic statue made of expensive magic gemstones.
At this moment.
A church priest came in from the outside and said respectfully: "Dear Cardinal Vladimir, the newly appointed Earl Lurian has sent over the promised resources. Do you need to go and see?"
"Just watch it," Vladimir said.
"but……"
The decent-looking cardinal turned around and looked at the priest with suppressed madness in his eyes.
"However, has the tender and juicy "goods" I specified arrived?"
Seeing the archbishop's appearance, the priest replied with some fear.
"It's already here, and it's being held on the second floor of the basement."
