"I didn't expect that as soon as I returned, the Pope would give me a new mission." Fenrir said coldly, and walked to the window, looking down at the lively street scene outside.

"What mission?" Ariel asked, a little nervously.

"This mission has nothing to do with you. But if you can promise not to tell outsiders and cooperate with my work, I can tell you." To prevent being overheard by Ninety-Nine, Fenrir nodded towards the window and cast 10 layers of concealment magic.

"Oh, that's okay. In other words, Weng's matter has not been revealed......" Ariel's hanging heart immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then nodded: "I promise you."

Hearing this answer, Fenrir was silent for a moment.

Then he replied, "Okay, then I'll tell you my mission. My mission was simple: to investigate the interests of the King of the Night. What she likes, what she hates, what she wants. Of course, it's better to have her trust. But I'm a person who has no expression, so I'm probably out of play."

At the end, Fenrir laughed at himself.

"In other words, the Pope or the Elven Clan wants to win over Xiao Jiu, right?" Ariel immediately sensed the essence of the matter.

"That's right." Fenrir did not shy away from admitting it.

"So, why did the Pope win over Xiao Jiu?" Ariel said as she gave Fenrir a cup of tea.

At the same time, he thought to himself: "Could it be that the Pope already knows the forces to which Ninety-Nine belongs?" So, do you want to win over in order to avoid war? ”

"I can't answer that question. But you can rest assured that the Pope has no ill will. For before I came, the Pope had made a special meeting and instructed all the bishops of the Holy See and the priests of the regions to treat him with courtesy wherever he was seen."

Fenrir didn't tell Ariel that 'Ninety-Nine is a traverser'. Instead, they chose to hide it.

After all, the traverser is a national secret, and no matter how good the relationship is, it can't be spread outside.

"So, can you guarantee that Ninety-Nine won't be in danger?" Ariel looked in amazement at Fenrir, who had taken the teacup but didn't move.

Although Ariel already knew that she was the captain of her family's persecution, Ariel was still quite prejudiced against the Pope.

"I can't promise it, but I have to carry out the mission." Fenrir said indifferently, and the teacup that had just been placed on his lips fell on the saucer again.

"Tsk...... Okay."

Ariel frowned.

"So you know what that guy needs? Or do you like it?"

"Huh...... You said you can't guarantee it, do you think I'll give you this information again? I don't want to let things happen to Weng again."

Ariel, who had just agreed to work with Fenrir, suddenly changed her mind at this moment.

"So you're trying to force me to use hypnotic magic?" Fenrir said coldly.

"You!" Ariel was furious.

But he is only level 5, and he can't beat Fenrir at level 7.

"I can understand your 'seeming' kindness, but I'm sorry. I don't care about anyone's safety but you."

Fenrir spoke without emotion, like an AI made up, with no emotion or confusion.

Although at this moment, Fenrir can make Ariel believe in himself and the Pope on the grounds that 'the Pope asked them to treat each other with courtesy'.

Or choose to tell the 'traverser thing' to win Ariel's trust.

But Fenrir didn't choose either as a reason for persuasion.

Because neither the former nor the latter can guarantee that 'when 99 is co-opted into the elven race', they will still be safe and sound, and they can't change the fact that 'it is impossible to determine safety'.

Fenrir, who has worked in the Holy See for more than twelve years, deeply understands the darkness of the upper echelons.

Examples of discarding abound.

While he'd never heard of a 'run out of traverser and throw it away', who could guarantee that it wouldn't happen?

Therefore, Fenrir did not state any of these reasons.

The black-haired elf continued coldly, "And...... How can you be sure that your seemingly good thoughts are not hindering friendship between the two races?"

As soon as these words came out, Ariel immediately pursed her lips and frowned.

Fenrir said that Ariel did not think about it. But even so, Ariel didn't want to do something she wasn't sure about.

But suddenly, Ariel remembered what Qing Yuhuai had learned about Ninety-Nine's special ability: it could come back to life after being hit by an attack that was immune to death by ignoring it.

"But...... With Xiao Jiu's strength, the Pope shouldn't be able to hurt her......"

After thinking about it, the purple-haired dragon lady took a deep breath and said, "Hey, okay, then I'll tell you something I know (about Ninety-Nine's preferences)."

[At this moment, Ariel doesn't know that there is a bloodstone in this world, an item that can control the Nightless. But not only Ariel, but also the entire Coswal, only the Joshua siblings knew about the bloodstone. As for the city lord, it was actually only after Ninety-Nine entered the city that he learned about the existence of the bloodstone from Joshua. 】

……

At the same time, the camera pulled to the north of Kecheng.

130 soldiers and 22 adventurers are filling in the pits.

Since the tricky dark elemental ice crystals had been cleared by Fenrir disguised as Qing Yuhuai, these people no longer needed to work together with more than a dozen people like before.

Now, next to each pothole, there are only one or two people standing. While the efficiency varies, these people are all working hard to restore their homes.

The sky was a bit cloudy and it looked like it was going to snow.

"I see, that's why you looked at me like that at that time......

Ninety-nine, who was floating on the snow, lowered his head slightly, thinking and talking.

He had just learned from Yan Liu's mouth that 'he blackened himself, and then leveled the whole Coswall'. And the 'that time' he said was also the first time he met Yan Liu.

"Hmm." Yan Liu smiled bitterly and nodded, "But I think you are not her, you should have crossed into this world after I made a deal with the Abyss Shopkeeper. And it happens to look a lot like that one."

"Uh......" Ninety-Nine stared speechlessly at the photo in his hand.

In the photo, it was the 'blackened ninety-nine' that Yan Liu saw that day, leveling Coswall to the ground and flying in the air.

Although Yan Liu felt that it was not Ninety-Nine himself.

But Ninety-Nine is very sure that the 'armed girl' in the photo is undoubtedly him.

Because of the eyes that were completely blackened; inverted triangular colored pupils; pitch-black turbo legs; Nightmare armor suspended throughout the body with little defensive effect; and the scarlet blood crystal on his chest. Who else could it be if it wasn't him?
