The magic guide lamp glowed orange and then folded apart by the crystal cover outside, spreading a faint warmth and light throughout the room.

The room was lavishly decorated, with valuable sculptures and paintings that looked elaborate in the orange glow of the magic lights, a red carpet of hair cut from the high-ranking baa beasts (level 13) on the floor, and a four-poster double velvet bed that didn't matter even if you turned your head on it.

However, luxury is just an ordinary room in the Catherine Grand Hotel.

Saralia was sitting on a large soft bed, nonchalantly fiddling with a small black dagger in her hand.

Although not long ago she had lived in a superior suite with Cage, who was nominally her subordinate, she was satisfied with the current environment after a period of wandering.

That Cage somehow left her missing alone, and when the girl thought that the guy should have rushed back to the cliff of the Western Continent.

After all, there are not many people in this city who can threaten Cage, and if there is a real fight, that kind of movement will definitely not make the whole city so calm, and nothing happening means that Cage is not in conflict with anyone in the city.

"He's a person who even thinks about his sister, so he shouldn't have to worry about it."

The girl leaned back, her upper body fell into the quilt with a snort, her posture suddenly changed from sitting to lying, and her blue hair was scattered on the bed, but she didn't care. Squinting his eyes, the whole person enjoyed the feeling of sinking into a large soft bed.

To be able to live in this kind of place again, and to have delicious food to eat, is thanks to that uncle.

As soon as Sylvie appeared in her mind, a sweet smile appeared on her face.

Although it's a little strange, and he always suffers a little because of his whimsical ideas, he should be a good person.

Just when she began to look forward to the afternoon's trip. A voice similar to hers, but with a noticeably muffled pitch, suddenly rang in her head.

"You don't think you're feeling any kind of for that human, are you?"

Saralia frowned and looked at a large floor-to-ceiling mirror beside the bed. The 'self' in the mirror was also looking at her, but surprisingly, the pupils of Salanlia in the mirror were not almond-colored. Rather, it was a strange beast-like golden vertical pupil.

It didn't feel good to be watched by herself in the mirror, but Saralia seemed to get used to it, and just replied indifferently, "What stupid things are you saying when you wake up, Kim." ”

"It's you who is stupid, my dear sister." The shadow in the mirror, which Saranlia called 'golden', laughed deliciously, which made the unknown Saranlia very unhappy, but before Saranlia could reply, the other party continued: "Humans are just food to us, even the lowest animals will not be in heat for their food, my dear sister." You'd better keep that in mind. ”

"It's none of your business!" Saralia stared at herself in the mirror.

"No, of course it's about me." Jin was not frightened by Shalan Lia at all, and still said with a smile: "The task of the eldest sister is assigned to the two of us, and now that the dagger of one of the seven magic tools has arrived, I can naturally get rid of the current shackles." ”

"What the hell are you trying to say?" Saraelia asked warily.

"Magic implements have their own unique abilities. The effect of the dagger is to extract the soul from the body of the stabbed. Jin said slowly, "If you don't have any feelings for that human, then just kill him with this dagger and create a temporary container for your brother and me." ”…,

"No, he's my benefactor!" Salanlia vetoed it flatly.

"Is it true that your reason for rejecting this proposal is only because he is your benefactor?" An inexplicable look flashed in Jin's eyes, and he asked with an evil smile: "Or are you ......already happy?"

"Shut up!"

I don't know if I was poked in the sore spot. It was just because she didn't like Jin that her pupils suddenly turned blood-red, and she looked at herself with golden pupils in the mirror, and the tense air instantly flooded this spacious room.

The last thing is that Jin in the mirror smacks his tongue, closes his eyes, and when the reflection opens his eyes again, everything has returned to its original state, and the reflection has become a reflection again.

Salanlia stared at the reflection and was silent for a long time, and then she sighed, "What a nuisance. ”

Then the girl stood up, intending to put the dagger in her hand and hide it again.

Although she is still very resistant to the corrosive effects of magic tools compared to humans, it will also have a bad effect on the body and mind if held for a long time. Just as she put the dagger back into the box, the girl's eyes stopped on a small box next to the drawer.

It contained a silver cross necklace. Although because of her bloodline, Saralia has a deep hatred for the cross, but when faced with the cross-shaped necklace given by Sivi, she is reluctant to throw it away, and she can only put it there.

At this time, when she saw the cross necklace, she couldn't help but think of the person who gave it to her......

- Golovito? Luo Lan Chamber of Commerce Reception Room——

"Sneeze ——!" Xiwei sneezed loudly, then sniffled, closed the book in his hand, and said angrily: "It's the third time today, is someone cursing me?" ”

The book he was reading was titled The Changing Aether? The Shaping Scroll is from the Akaxia Box, and Sivi got it for free once a week, after all, this time compared to this book, the other books are not of much value.

“…… Who wants to make their squeaky nest fart sound? At that time, Sivi looked at "Tricky Art, let your squeaky wort" as one of the candidates! 》。 I couldn't help but be embarrassed, and finally chose the most normal title, "The Changeable Aether? Shaping Rolls.

Although "The Changeable Aether? The Shape Scroll is not a magic book that allows you to learn magic directly, but it does contain a magic.

Two-ring arcane magic, aether shaping.

Aether shaping is not very advanced magic, in simple terms, it is the manipulation of the aether flow in the air to form various shapes, as long as it is mastered well, even beginner magicians can play with two-handed aether shaping - but it is estimated that they can't shape anything.

Because he was promoted to a mid-level magician. Now, Sivi's magic of the Second Ring can be learned by reading through it - of course, it takes enough practice and use to fully master it.

Based on this, Sivi also asked Franconia to record all the second-ring magic he knew in addition to the experiment, and show him when he returned......

"I'm sorry. I've kept you waiting. Just as Sivi was about to continue reading to deepen his understanding of aether shaping, Aliana, whom he had been waiting for, finally entered the room.

It's different from the glamorous look of the past. Sivi always felt that the current Alina looked a little tired, the whole person was listless, and her face was full of sleepiness.

"What's wrong?" Sivi asked her curiously, "Is it so busy for your Chamber of Commerce to prepare for that competition?" ”

"Of course it's more than that." Alina sat down in her chair and looked a little sluggish: "The Celestial Globe Contest and helping you negotiate are also one of the reasons, but the main thing is not this. ”…,

"What's that? Did your chamber of commerce take any big orders? Xiwei asked curiously, and when the question came out, he realized that it seemed that it was not good to ask such a question, and there was a suspicion of peeping into other people's chambers of commerce.

Fortunately, Alina, who was in low spirits, didn't notice, just shook her head and explained to Sivi: "It's a cult. ”

"What?" Because he heard the unexpected words, Sivi didn't react at once. Subconsciously said: "Cult? Or is it a full neng? ”

"What are you talking about?" Alina casually asked, but seeing that Sivi didn't seem to intend to answer her meaning, she continued, "Actually, strange religions have suddenly begun to appear in the Eastern Plains recently, and they call themselves 'Necessary Evil Churches'. ”

Listening to Alina's explanation, Sivi got a little insight into this recently emerging church.

Although the name doesn't rhyme at all. It didn't sound like the Holy See or anything, but the Church of Necessary Evil quickly caught the attention of the King's Council.

The reason is simple, these sneaky guys in black cloaks are inciting civilians and serfs to revolt everywhere.

Their doctrine is not the same as that of the Holy See, which is magnificent, just, fair, and open, but puts forward the concept of the necessary evil of human nature.

In their opinion, everyone will have greed, selfishness, irritability, possessiveness and other bad feelings in their hearts.

The beauty of humanity is exaggerated infinitely than the Holy See. They believe that only those who have both good and bad aspects can be considered a complete person.

At the same time, they also used this as a slogan to try to incite the lower classes of people to rebel.

At first, it was just a matter of being oppressed in some remote areas, and even surviving became serfs with extravagant hopes, and then with these dotted areas as a base, the Church of Necessary Evil began to radiate in all directions.

"You have planted with your own sweat and hard work, and you have received the generous gift from Mother Earth, why should you give it all unconditionally to those nobles who have done nothing and only know how to eat, drink and have fun all day long?"

"The same human race, why can some people sit high in castles, enjoy the reverence of all people, and live a prosperous life by exploitation, while you have to work hard, and in the winter you can only shiver in a thin quilt?"

"Why do you have to endure hunger, cold, and raging plagues while the fat-headed nobles are busy with the singing and dancing feasts, so that even your own children are desperately struggling to survive their lives, and if you are not careful, they will disappear from your dry and calloused fingers?"

"What ...... for?"

"What ...... for?"

"What ...... for?"

"Now is the time! For those nobles who oppress and bully us at will, the good side of human nature no longer works! We need the necessary evil to sanction them! ”

For a long time, class contradictions had accumulated between the commoners and the aristocracy.

Although not all. But most of the nobles pong the commoners, and the majority of the commoners hated the nobles.

It's just that there are monsters and orcs as a threat to the human race, and there are surging kings and armies inside, plus the Qiyao Mage Association standing on the side, these contradictions have all been backlogged and have not been able to explode.

And what the Church of Necessary Evil has done this time is to add fuel to these contradictions that have been backlogged for generations. Let it explode in its entirety!

However, it is a pity that this world is not the earth, and the rebellion of the civilians is doomed to failure. Before the advent of thermal weapons, or weapons equivalent to thermal weapons. These ordinary people were far from being the opponents of the aristocracy.

In addition to the army, the number of mages in the two camps is also very different. When the mages who can be seen as mobile war bastions begin to wield, no matter how many civilians are in the nobility camp. It doesn't matter how fierce they are, just like an ant can bite an elephant to death, but it can never threaten a dragon, and the difference in rank between the two is too great. …,

"But although the commoners and that church did not cause much trouble to the King's Council, it made many countries and cities much more harsh, and not only us, but many chambers of commerce suffered heavy losses because of it."

Alina sighed and explained the root cause of her appearance: "Almost all the people in our Chamber of Commerce have run out of the way to clear the links now, and I just came back from a neighboring city. ”

"Well, it's fine. I don't mind waiting a little longer. In addition, to be honest, anyone with a little insight will not know what the outcome of this matter is. Sivi touched his chin, he always felt that the whole thing revealed a strange taste: "The characters who can make such a thing as the necessary evil church should not be unaware...... So why don't you secretly accumulate strength, but make such a big fuss about this matter? ”

The Seven Yao Mage Guild has an energy that is not inferior to that of the King's Council, but except for those who are specially sent by the royal family to mix qualifications. Most magicians have little interest in politics, so the last week's Goddess of Truth newspaper didn't report on it, and Sivi, who had been living on Sky Island, didn't know about it until now.

However, judging from the increasing scale of this incident, it may be possible that this week's Goddess of Truth will report on the Church of Evil.

"Who knows, maybe the people behind it just plan to put the necessary evil church on the table, and make it have great advertising benefits through a series of events." Alina shrugged her shoulders. From the perspective of a businessman, he presented his opinion.

And Sivi thought of a lot more.

After all, this time is too sensitive. If the Church of Necessary Evil meant nothing in the first place, its only purpose in being put on the table was to attract the attention of the King's Council.

After all, no matter what the era, the people's rebellion is extremely important. If that happens, there is no doubt that the King's Council will spend a lot of energy dealing with it.

This is evident in Aliana's words - the gates of many countries and cities have begun to become stricter. This kind of behavior is not only a huge threat to those lawbreakers, but also causes some unacceptable losses to many peddlers, pawns and even some chambers of commerce, and it is difficult for businessmen to accept this kind of loss. And these losses and contradictions, at the same time, will inevitably attract the attention of the King's Council again in disguise, so that they spend a lot of energy to solve.

And once the attention of the King's Council is drawn to these things, they must not pay much attention to the changes in other things.

For example, the nobility of the night.

Thinking of the unusual behavior of the vampires some time ago, I am afraid that during this time they will make more small movements under the noses of the King's Council.

Perhaps even the Church of Necessary Evil itself was secretly founded by these vampires in order to cover their own actions.

If that's the case, then those vampires' plans are probably already so important that they have to make such a fuss to cover themselves.

It's just that there is still no way to judge where the other party's plan has come.

Looks like the only way to get on with that stupid vampire is going to go. Sivi sighed, suppressing the guilt he felt for deceiving such an ignorant girl to the bottom of his heart.

"By the way, you're here for steel, aren't you?" Seeing that the atmosphere was a little dull, Alina opened her mouth to ask Sivi.

Xiwei immediately woke up from his stunned state and nodded: "Well, that's it." So did you get it? ”

"It's not as much as you'd like, but it's still a lot."

Alina rummaged for a moment on her bunny girl suit, which she couldn't see pockets at all, and somewhere she took out a note, which looked like a receipt, and handed it to Sivi.

Sivi took the note, looked at it a few times, then slipped it back into his pocket and stood up.

Indeed, as Alina said, the quantity did not reach the amount required by Xiwei, but at that time, Xiwei was asking for a sky-high price, and the other party naturally had to repay the money, plus it was impossible for the Roland Chamber of Commerce to do day work, Xiwei was not a greedy person, and he could get so many links just now, he already felt very good.

"Since you're still busy, then don't disturb your work." He shook hands with Alina before leaving Golovetto and returning to the Floating Island before meeting up with Sharan in the afternoon.

However, at this time, Alina asked Xiwei: "If you don't have anything to do next, do you want to go to the Heavenly Stadium with me?" I'm going to go there in the future, and if I go now, I might be able to get into something good. ”

Xiwei thought about it for a while, and thought that it would be good to visit the hot celestial ball competition venue before the steel arrived, so he readily agreed. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
