Chapter 41: New Orders
The sound echoed over and over in the huge space.
Taviya turned her face and glanced at Zeda.
Zeda nodded understandingly, took a step forward, and said respectfully: "Yes. As the specific executor of the mission, I initially tried to lead the Lich Paladin to the confusion of faith by provoking the opposition of the divine power, the royal power and the Lich Paladin faith, and then guided it to fall. However, something unexpected happened. When the opposition occurred, the Lich Paladin not only did not have the confusion of faith, but instead successfully transformed into a saint. I never knew that Lich could also be transformed into a saint. After that, things began to deviate from the original trajectory. As the executor of the mission, I began to become helpless. Here, I apologize for my incompetence."
"No, you don't need to apologize. In fact, we don't know that the Lich can be converted into a saint, he is the first in history. Maybe not the last one." A demon with two goat horns whispered.
"We no longer care about the original mission." A succubus who looks very much like Vivian and has grown up said in her charming voice: "Do you think he may fall? He is the first Lich saint ever, and is transformed faster than any other saint. We want to know if he cannot fall like other saints? Or, he can fall from other saints."
After a little silence, Zeda whispered: "Please forgive me for not being able to answer this question. His behavior is always beyond my expectations. Although I have been following him for half a year, I feel that I still know nothing about this new species."
"Where are you? Vivian, can you answer this question?" asked the succubus.
Vivian blinked and shook her head: "I don't know either."
A demon who looked like a lizard and spitted the snake's novices and said, "Maybe we should discuss it with the Lich Council, and then bring him back directly and cut it into pieces to study it. Then you will know the exact answer. A small Lich who is not good at it must not care about it."
"You'd better give up this idea." A demon who looked like a toad with his feet standing with fleshy wings said hummingly: "There are 400 members of the Lich Council, but no leader. The last time we reached the Gray Robe Agreement with them, it took a total of 1,200 years. You never know what the skeletons were thinking, and sometimes they didn't even know where they were speaking. I never want to communicate with them again, or have anything to do with them."
"It sounds like a new Lich Demonic is as bad as a new Lich Paladin." A demon, who hung upside down like a bat, complained.
"Yes, terrible, nothing worse than this." The Toad Demon spread his hands and said, "Although we have assumed that if he falls as a saint, we can accept him. But to be honest, we hope he will never be here, otherwise our meetings may never be completed."
"Your name is Vivian, right?" A strange voice sounded. The voice seemed to be roaring countless people, sharp, with an echo.
"Yes! I am your slave Vivian! My devil lord!" Vivian was startled, quickly took a step forward, and bent down respectfully.
The huge shadow swung rapidly and said in that weird voice: "I'll ask you in another way. You have been in contact with the Lich Paladin for so long. In your judgment, if we don't interfere, is there a possibility of natural depravity in the struggle with the Holy See?"
"There are no signs of this at the moment!"
"Not at all?"
"Yes, unfortunately, there is no. In fact, we can't see any signs of his depravity when we intervene. Even his faith is becoming stronger and stronger."
"Very good." The voice said, "From today on, you will be promoted to the devil, and you will report directly to me. The Lich Paladin is single-ranked as the devil. And you will serve as his inducement."
Vivian slowly opened his eyes wide and was stunned. Not only Vivian, Zeda, and Tavia were also stunned, and opened their eyes wide and looked at the huge shadow. However, the demons around him were calm and calm, as if they had guessed this decision long ago.
The little succubus, who was only over 2,500 years old, was officially enthroned as a devil, and was a devil who reported directly to the devil lord. This was unique in the entire abyss.
Of course, the strangest thing is that the Paladin was singlely listed as the envoy.
Vivian stammered, "But...but, he was not degenerate."
"Do you have to fall to become a demon envoy?" the voice asked back.
"this……"
"We have many excellent demons, and we don't lack this one. There are many fallen paladins. The symbolic meaning is greater than the actual meaning. Lich Paladin can truly show his value only when placed in the position of a paladin. What I need you to do is to ensure the purity of the Lich Paladin's faith and ensure that his identity is not exposed. Instead of tempting him to fall."
Vivian was stunned. She couldn't believe what she heard. Zeda and Tavia, who were standing beside her, were the same.
The voice continued: "A Lich Paladin whose identity was revealed, or a fallen Lich Paladin, or even a fallen Lich Saint, can cause confusion on the continent, which is short-lived than endless time. However, if we can split the Holy See into two of the different principles, its influence will be profound. This is the real benefit we need. I ask you to keep his faith pure, and only in this way can the people of heaven be unable to start with him."
Vivian listened blankly.
Zeda and Taviya all looked surprised.
"I know it's very simple and requires almost nothing to do. At least it seems so now. But never forget that there is another biggest obstacle, that is the agreement between him and the Holy Spirit. Once the true identity is exposed, whether he falls or not, heaven will be able to attack him as agreed. For this reason, I ask you, at all costs, to ensure that his identity is not exposed."
"Not hesitating...at all the price?" Vivian asked blankly.
"Yes, at all costs, including the agreement between us and heaven. Even if you violate it, I will quote special terms to provide you with shelter as the Demon Lord. However, there is a premise. After the agreement is violated, you must avoid the pursuit of the angel army and return to the abyss alive. In addition, you must help him as much as possible in his confrontation with the Holy See. Do you understand what I mean? What we need is a powerful and pious Lich Paladin who perfectly hides the secret of his identity. Instead of a common fallen lich."
"Vivian understand! Vivian thanks the Demon Lord!"
"Okay, go and report to your sect. If you do well, you will receive endless rewards."
"Yes!" Vivian crawled on the ground respectfully again and kowtowed.
