Originally...... That's what happened!

Mayne stared intently at the vision, and the shock in her heart was overwhelming. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The ritual of transformation of the Divine Punishment Army turned out to be invented by witches, who did not hesitate to sacrifice their own kind in order to defeat the devil...... How many of them will stand up on the spot and reprimand her for her ruthlessness?

The final result was beyond his expectations, after half an hour, no one stood up, not even the witch who questioned the ceremony, did not openly object to Akaris's words, she just gritted her teeth and slammed the table, what an irony! What could be more ridiculous than killing many witches with her own hands, but for the sake of the continuation of witches!

But she was right, an older witch said that we were born of mortals after all, and when all mankind perished, witches ceased to exist.

Conversely, no matter how many witches are sacrificed in the conversion ritual, there will always be new witches who will appear in their place. The more mortals, the more witches, Elaine shrugged.

Will the Divine Punishment Army be able to defeat the devil?

I don't know, Akalis said again, no one knows the answer until they try. The defeat of the previous two Wars of the Divine Will has shown that the Devil is far more powerful than us, and that only Red Mist restricts their movements - which means that even if we create a large number of Divine Punishment Samurai, we may not be able to achieve ultimate victory. She paused, but you should know my style.

Elaine smiled, even if there was only the slightest possibility, she had to do her best.

I will follow in your footsteps.

For the continuation of witches.

I don't want to throw in the towel.

The crowd stood up and saluted the King of Witches.

The last skeptical witch stood up and said, "I hope what you say is right."

So it was decided, Akalis nodded, she could see that she was not surprised by this result, and the next step was to convince the other members of the federation.

They won't necessarily listen to you, said the older witch, if you want to carry out the transformation of the Divine Punishment Army without resistance, witches cannot exist as a privilege from above, the federation must be dissolved, and everything that happened in the past must be completely buried.

I will do my best to convince them that Akaris's voice is unwavering, and if they can't accept it, Meteor City will push forward this plan on its own and reforge a new order.

The screen then disappears...... Darkness engulfed everything again, and when the light in the chamber returned to normal, Mayne found that her back was soaked with cold sweat and her mind was dizzy.

"Do you seem tired and need me to help you out?" asked Jero.

"No, go open the door!" he gasped.

After the metal door was pushed open, Mayne stumbled out of the illusion, ran down the prayer platform with her mouth covered, and fell to her knees in front of Oberline.

"When the magic stone is activated, it will automatically reflect the picture in your head, so it's normal to feel uncomfortable," the Pope whispered, "I reacted the same way you did when I first came into contact with these, and I can recover after resting." ”

"Why don't I have anything?" asked Jero, putting her arm around the Pope.

"Because you are a witch yourself, your body has long been accustomed to the operation of magic," Oberline smiled kindly, "whether it is endurance or resistance, witches are generally much better than mortals. ”

It took Mayne a long time to calm her breath, "This is the church's ...... Origin?"

"That's right, Akaris, who then led the Fallen Star City in battle against the witches of the other two cities, and eventually came out victorious, establishing a new rule that witches were no longer the chosen ones on high, but evil ones who had been seduced by the devil to fall. The war lasted for almost a hundred years and is known in the history books as the War of Faith. ”

"Did she live that long?"

The Pope shook his head, "Soon after the establishment of the Church, Akaris, along with another transcendent being. The second pope inherited her will and continued to lead the army until the other two factions were completely subdued, a battle that unfortunately left the three cities with such strength that they almost lost their grip on the world. Mortals who were reluctant to participate in the War of the Witches began to take root in this narrow continent, leading the locals to reclaim and build, and gradually formed the four kingdoms of today. ”

For some reason, the more Oberline spoke, the more energetic he became, and even his voice became coherent, no longer feeling weak.

"Although the church has cleaned up those remnants many times, including mortals who do not belong to Falling Star City, the secular pattern has been formed, and the church has not been able to complete the unification of the continent after all due to the lack of follow-up, all of which is due to the fact that the witch king died too early. ”

Not only did Nataya, whom she considered a friend, not accept her plan, but she also attacked Akaris, a scene that is recorded in the complete canon. The Pope sighed, "If she were still alive, the War of Faith would be over fifty years earlier, and then the Church would have been able to take in all the witches and unify the continent." No one could have imagined that this delay would drag on until now. ”

Mayne wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Your Majesty, I don't know something, why the previous popes were all witches, but the back are all ordinary people?"

"Stand down, Gerlo," Oberline said after a moment of silence.

"Yes. ”

Only when the Pure had left did he speak slowly, "Because of cowardice and cowardice." ”

"What...... He was stunned, wondering for a moment if he had misheard.

"No, kid, you heard me right. Oberline seemed to see through his thoughts, his eyes sparkling as if he had returned to his youthful appearance, "In order to be able to regain the glory of witches after defeating the devil, Akaris has decreed that the papal position must be held by a transcendent being. But transcendent witches are scarce and do not always find a suitable match, and later on, there are some outstanding ordinary witches who have served as popes - but cowardice and cowardice are like poisonous snakes in the heart, which cannot be stopped once they appear. The mortal archbishop, fearing that one day he would be liquidated by the oppressed witches, directly usurped the papal throne. ”

Mayne's eyes widened, "So the popes after that are all ......"

"That's right, we're all cowards who stole the fruits of a witch's sacrifice," the Pope let out a big sigh, "and the Church will bury this secret forever, no matter what the future holds." He paused, "As for the truth of the battle of the divine will, it is all recorded in the Privy Temple, and now it is up to you to bear all this and continue walking." Even if you give up...... It is also a wise choice. ”

After saying this, his whole body suddenly relaxed, as if he had taken off his burden, and lay down on the cart.

If he gave up, who else would be able to take over the position? But before Mayne had time to think about it, he had already noticed that something was wrong with Oberline—his physical condition had taken a turn for the worse, and the appearance of his energy just now seemed to be only a brief return to light, and now his eyes were rapidly spreading, and the light was dimming little by little.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty Oberline!" Mayne stepped forward and shook the other anxiously, but he just stared at the top plate emptyly, his lips slightly open and closed, as if he was muttering something.

At the last moment, Mayne seemed to hear the other person saying, "Kid, I'm sorry. ”
