Just when everyone felt that Gray won the full victory in the fight with the Holy See, Gray didn't think so.

In fact, he felt that he had failed, and he failed thoroughly.

Starry Night, Lion King Capital.

On the roof of a small house, Grey and Carl quietly looked at the people in the room through the open windows of the opposite building.

A drunk man was beating his wife. While beating, he shouted: "Go and sue! Go and sue! The Paladin will make the decision for you, and I will be locked in a cell tomorrow, but when I come out, I will continue to hit you! Just like now!"

Carl, who was standing beside him, whispered: "Sir Paladin, the situation is quite special. I think it is necessary to let you know. It is not just this family, but in fact, we are encountering more and more special situations."

"Her husband beat her?" Grey asked softly.

"Yes."

"Then why didn't she get divorced? I remember the new law allows them to divorce freely."

"It's not just the law that determines people's lives." Carl said: "The law has changed, but people don't think divorce is a good thing. Divorce women can be difficult to remarry, and it's difficult to live alone. What's more, they have children."

"What if we force them to divorce?"

"That woman will resent you."

"We saved her, but she still wants to resent us?"

"Yes, because she doesn't think you're saving her."

"Why did her husband hit her?"

"Because he has no job now. In the past, he used to be busy from morning to night to fill his stomach, and he had no extra energy or time to beat his wife."

"Then why did he lose his job?"

"It's not that he lost his job, but that he lost his job. He voluntarily gave up his job because we gave enough money that he could live without work. As long as he didn't work, he would always be poor and would always receive our funding. According to the current welfare rules, we can't watch him go hungry."

“Are there many such things?”

"It used to be very few, but now it is starting to grow. In addition, the wealth we distributed has made the Lion King richer, but it has also made everyone extravagant. The goods in the market have begun to be short of goods. Although neighboring countries are trying hard to transport us, prices are still rising. Of course, the most important thing is that many people are becoming lazy and they are unwilling to work."

Grey suddenly thought of something, jumped down from the roof, and landed accurately on the horseback of Ritnedas in the alley.

Driven by Tenadas, Gray rushed straight along the street towards the direction of leaving the city.

Carl also jumped off the roof and followed him.

Two demons stood on the tower and watched quietly.

...

In a blink of an eye, Grey had arrived at the farm outside the city.

A large area of ​​farmland is covered with weeds.

Seeing all this, Gray was surprised. He got off the horse, bent down and reached out to touch the abandoned land, and whispered: "I have distributed all the land of the royal family to them, but... they don't farm? Before, they had to pay high rent and were willing to farm, but now they don't want to?"

"Because of you, you give them enough money to live, and of course they are enjoying life. Why do you have to work so hard?" said the black cat.

"But I didn't send a lot of money. Although the total amount is large, not much is distributed to everyone."

"It's enough for them to survive."

"Don't they expect a better life? Life is just to live? If they are willing to work, they can get more. Unfortunately, they don't seem to think so."

Carl rode his horse and chased him from behind: "Prince Paladin..."

"You go back first, I want to stay alone quietly." Gray said casually with his back to Carl.

"Uh... OK." Carl turned his horse's head and left.

Only Gray is left in the empty farm.

Or, there are Grey, Tenidas, Black Cat, Catherine, and Vivian. Well, there are quite a lot of "people".

...

Dean's residence.

Andrew was sitting quietly opposite Dean.

Dean lowered his head, as if waiting for Andrew's instructions. Andrew followed it carefully with a piece of material, a little unhappy.

"It's all useless things, can you only find these?"

"Sorry, after all, the Pope did not allow me to get too close to the Paladin. So, the information I can find is very limited. I hope you can understand."

"Then why should you be put into the position of bishop? You are so useless, even if you change to a dog to be a bishop."

Dean looked up at Andrew and could only smile awkwardly.

"Master Master." A voice suddenly rang.

Turning his face, Dean saw a man in black leather armor pushing open the balcony door and walking in.

He glanced at Dean casually, and he saluted Andrew respectfully, saying, "Paladin Grey has left the Lion King, his horse is very fast, we can't catch up."

"Where do you know?"

"I don't know. But we're sure he's gone, and probably won't come back soon. After all, we've seen the adjutant Carl who was chasing him out, who has returned alone."

Throwing the materials in his hand onto the table, Andrew whispered: "Okay, let's do it."

"Action? What are you going to do?" Dean was shocked.

"Didn't anyone tell you? The situation is very urgent now, and the Pope has asked us to come up with results immediately. It seems that you need to think carefully about your relationship with the Cardinal." Andrew stood up slowly with his handrail.

The man in black leather armor immediately put on him in a blue mage robe.

The two jumped directly from the balcony and left.

As he rushed to the balcony, Dean slowly opened his eyes wide and stared blankly at the backs of the two of them leaving.

...

Gray sat quietly in the abandoned farmland, looking at the farmland silently.

"Actually, there is no need to be too sad, Gray." The black cat lifted his mask, jumped out of it, licking his paws and said, "This is normal. There are always some lazy people, right? People like you very much now, your reputation is very high, and the Holy See lost."

"But they were not lazy people, I made them lazy. I was causing a disaster."

"Disaster? Where does the disaster come from?"

"Isn't it?" said Gray: "If they don't farm, then there will be no harvest. Even if they have money, they will still starve to death. And if we use money to buy food from neighboring countries... I know, I am actually doing this now. Neighboring countries' food is not infinite, and after we buy it, their food will be in short supply. Then, Isaac will not be the only one who falls into disaster."

"Uh...will this happen?"

"It's not just that. Every night when I study the reform of the law, you're sleeping, so you don't know what's going on. I used the law to stop all sins, but new sins are happening. It's very bad. I wiped out the wicked, and the good are turning into wicked."

"Wait, I don't understand very much." The black cat was a little confused.

"The law is only part of the punishment of the evil people, and more, in fact, it depends on other deterrence. For example, if it harms the interests of others, it will be retaliated. Because of the law, no one will be retaliated now. Therefore, the relationship between people is deteriorating, and many smart wicked people have been born. They have not violated the law and I cannot punish them. And no matter how I am going to modify the law, they can always find loopholes."

The black cat listened in amazement: "Can this still happen?"

"Yes, although I don't want to believe it, this is the reality." Gray said in extreme frustration: "I seem to have controlled all the sins, but I have not turned them into good people. Instead, I am turning some of the original good people into bad people... and causing a disaster."

"But people still respect you, don't they? They can't find a better ruler than you. You won the Holy See, and everyone feels that way."

"But that's not what I want. People still respect me just because they don't know that I'm making their lives worse."

The black cat was silent, and the dilemma that Gray faced obviously exceeded his cognition.

The wind blew gently, shaking the surrounding weeds.

The night is silent.

After a long time, Catherine's voice sounded: "So, the most difficult thing for us has never been to implement justice. It is to change humans. As I said at the beginning, the species of humans has never had anything to do with greatness. If you are kind, they will use your kindness. If you are upright, they will use your integrity. If you are generous, they will use your generosity. The Holy Spirit does not even allow us to contact humans directly, because humans will pollute us. Is it ridiculous? Angels intend to influence humans, but in the end, humans turn angels into fallen angels. This is also the reason why the Holy See exists. We need to keep a little distance between ourselves and humans. But in this way, the purity of the Holy See cannot be guaranteed."

"Vivian, do you have anything to say?" Gray asked.

After thinking for a long time, Vivian said, "Actually, I have nothing to say. From the perspective of the demon, I think you did a good job. I am not referring to you causing disaster to Isaac, I am referring to you defeating the Holy See. At least everyone thinks so, doesn't they? I think they must be as anxious as ants on the hot pan now. Tactically speaking, you won this time."

"In other words, I have nothing but reputation. And that is exactly what I deserve." The soul fire in Grey's eyes was shaking slightly, which showed that he was extremely depressed.

"Watching the better, at least you are closer to reality, right?" Vivian said: "Month of rule has indeed given you a new understanding of humanity. This will help your faith positively. I mean, after you understand the reality of this world, you can try to re-choose your faith."

Grey slowly stood up and walked back step by step.

Tenidas followed him.

The dispute between the angel and the demon in my mind began again after several months of silence.

"Grey, in fact, the idea of ​​attracting people to be kind is right. But there are many ways. There are positive methods and negative methods. Sometimes, suffering can make people yearn for light more. But beauty can in turn make people not know how to cherish it. You are just wrong. We can try new ways."

"Your statement is really fresh. Do you want Gray to give them suffering? Gray, you are right. The wrong thing is human beings themselves. You work hard to make the world a better place and help them for free, but they go against you. They are not worthy of your doing so. If you are willing to leave your compassion for them, you will live a happy life."

"You are making him abandon his mercy, you are making him betray the divine faith!"

"No, on the contrary. If you don't regard humans as equal creatures, does giving up mercy for them have anything to do with betraying the divine faith?"

...

At this moment, a group of people slipped into a mansion outside Pierce Cathedral in the dark.

"That person named Shelley lives here?"

"Yes, she is not a clergyman and cannot live in a church."

They looked up and looked at a room on the second floor with lights and windows on.
