Chapter 02: Going to the Lion King City (2)(1/2)
It was extremely pleasant to go to the Lion King Capital. At least for Gray.
Almost every place, Gray is warmly welcomed.
The children want to sit on Gray's horseback.
Parents want to be blessed by Gray.
Men respect Gray's courage.
Women admire Gray's heroic posture.
His story with Elean is sung like a legend. Yes, Grey and Elean.
This made Shelley bulge his mouth: "I'm obviously Gray's fiancée! How could they forget me!"
...
A voice from afar said, "Jealous."
...
Grey was surrounded by flowers, and everyone praised him and praised him.
Elin stood beside Grey.
A child asked Yilin: "Sister, will you marry the Paladin?"
Elin was stunned for a moment, turned her face to look at Gray. She found that Gray was busy clapping the children and didn't hear this problem at all.
After hesitating for a moment, Yilin whispered: "I don't know."
...
A voice from afar said, "Vanity."
...
"Did you follow him when the Paladin fights?" a girl asked Path.
"Of course, I'm his best friend." Pas smiled evilly, "How about you, do you want to hear more stories about the Paladin? The kind that is impossible to hear elsewhere."
"Of course." The girl smiled affectionately, reached out and pulled Pas' belt, then leaned on her back, pushed open the door behind her with her hands, and retreated into the room.
Pasmai followed in.
...
A voice in the distance said, "Lust."
...
"Are these two knight entourages of the Paladin?"
"No, I heard that they are the adopted sons and adopted daughters of the Paladin."
"Wow! No wonder they wear armor of the same style as Paladin! Will they inherit the title of Paladin?"
"The title of fool. The Paladin is not hereditary. However, the Paladin has many other titles, which is enough."
"The Paladin already has Miss Yilin. I wonder if these two little Paladins are engaged?"
A bunch of aunts surrounded Jones and Dora to discuss their best.
At this moment, Jones's mood was: want to die! want to die! want to die!
...
A voice from afar said, "Mourish."
...
The black cat ate the food sent by Grey into his armor and the residents of the town. Then he burped for a long time. He turned his head and saw that there were still many left, just lying on the food, and he was immediately overjoyed.
"I like winter! Food in winter is not easy to get worse! Hahaha! I want to lie on the food and sleep! Sleep until next spring is coming!"
...
A voice from afar said, "Glut eating and laziness."
...
Earl Grugru, who had already arrived at the hotel, spread out the map and looked carefully, and discussed it with the accompanying officer beside him.
"The letter from Benedict II said that there will be a new fiefdom. What do you think he means? Do you want to expand the territory of the Principal of Beshir? The royal family does not often use land to divide the fiefdom. The Beshir family has obtained a new fiefdom. Will our Gruglu have it too? This is a good opportunity." As he said, Earl Gruglu raised his eyebrows slightly.
...
A voice from afar said, "Greed."
...
"Get out! Get out of here!" Halls pushed the crowd away and shouted loudly: "The Duke and the Paladin have to rush to the road tomorrow! What do you guys want to do? Don't delay their rest!"
The residents were reluctant to retreat, and Gray was a little overwhelmed.
Yilin persuaded, "Hals, you can't do this."
"No, that should be like this, Lord Duke!" Halls said angrily: "The most important thing for us is to go to the Lion King to be granted, rather than being watched here by these unsavvy people like monkeys!"
...
"Rage and arrogance." A voice from afar said softly: "I haven't counted it yet, and the Nine Sins are all. It's really not easy for this Lich Paladin to gather Nine Sins in his team. What did he think?"
"So, it's easy to solve?" another voice asked.
"No, it's not easy. It should be said that it's not easy."
"Why?"
"'Sin' will spread like a plague. When you get along with greedy people, you will become greedy, and when you get along with angry people, you will become angrily. Although this is a team full of holes, you see, after gathering nine sins, you can't even have any sins on you."
...
In the distance, Grey gently pulled Halls away and whispered: "Halls, I don't think we can do this. The reason why everyone is looking forward to our arrival is because they respect us. The title itself is an honor granted to us by the people. We treat the people coldly for the sake of honor. This is wrong."
"Yes! You have begun to evolve into a charlatan!" the black cat whispered.
"This is what I saw in the Bible last night." Gray replied excitedly.
"I just read the Bible last night? Haven't you read it several times?"
"Yes, but I had a new feeling last night."
"Oh, thank you so much. Maybe one day I will hear you sing hymns in my armor." The black cat said helplessly.
Halls was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and could only say, "Affect your instructions, my dear Paladin."
Then salute respectfully, back and stand aside.
The people all cheered. This is indeed what they imagined, the Paladin.
...
"Look, he really has nothing. It's as clean as a child. How did they find such a lich?"
"This is really beyond our expectations. But it is true that the nine sins, the lich first eliminated lust, gluttony, laziness, and only six sins left. I have never seen the lich of melancholy and jealousy. I have seen all the vanity, greed, rage, and arrogant lich, but not many. Is the distance between the lich and the divine faith itself closer than that of humans? This is a huge discovery. So what are you going to do?"
"It's very difficult. In the past, we have also let the Paladins fall, but without exception, they use lust. Humans have promoted love very high, and even the Holy See has no choice but to deal with them. This has become the easiest part of the Paladin's faith. It also gives us a chance. In fact, now the Pope no longer dares to let the Paladin stay outside the Holy See. After all, we are already familiar with that kind of trick, and they have no choice. But what is in front of us is a lich, and he doesn't even have the possibility of lust."
"So what? Are you ready to give up?"
"No. I see it as a challenge. Taviya, I just need some time to think about it. During our long lifespan, we need to have a pastime, and letting the Paladin fall is undoubtedly a good pastime. At least that's what I think. Besides, didn't you say that in the worst case, as long as he is exposed, I will be considered as completing the task."
"Yes, Zeda."
"So, I will definitely complete this task."
As night fell, the members of the team had returned to the hotel. Only a few guards were left to take turns outside the door. The two demons hiding on the top of the distant mountain finally slowly showed their figures.
Yes, two demons.
The Demon, known as Taviya, is a woman with fiery red skin, fiery red wavy hair, a proud figure, wearing a black tight leather jumpsuit. There are a pair of huge fleshy wings that are disproportionate to the figure, and a long, thorny tail at the end.
Called Zeda, he is a male demon. He has two big horns on his head and has red skin like Taviya. However, he is a darker and slender figure, wearing only a pair of black trousers. With the moonlight, he can clearly see the strong muscles on his body. He also has a pair of huge fleshy wings, but has no tail.
Like the angels, each of their eyes has two pupils, but not silver, but red like their skin.
In terms of appearance, they are all handsome. But when it comes to dressing up, it's a bit Shamatt. Of course, the demon obviously does not need to accommodate human aesthetics.
"His guardian angel is back," Zeda said softly.
...
Sure enough, a little crystal slowly fell from the sky, floated in from the window of Grey's room, and then slowly grew bigger, finally stretched out, turning into an angel-like appearance before Grey.
It's Catherine.
Grey was sitting at the desk reading a book, stretched his head and turned around and said, "Is there any new will of the Holy Spirit?"
"No, it's not that the Holy Spirit summoned me." Catherine shook her head: "There is bad news and good news, which one do you want to listen to first?"
"Good news!" Gray raised his hand.
"The good news is that because of your support, the church reforms in the Principal of Beshir have confirmed success in the past few months. This is the biggest achievement we have achieved in the Kingdom of Isaac in recent hundreds of years. The common people, the Vaticans, the nobles, all supported, and it is not easy. The very thorough Reformation. The Holy Spirit recognizes and approves your contribution."
