Chapter 84 Great, no need to say more
"You mean, you are the maid in Siris's house? Did you come here today to find someone at the church?" At
the door of the church, a gentle-faced ordinary nun greeted Liz.
Her original intention was to ask if this new face she had never seen before came here to pray for blessings from the gods, but she did not expect that after asking, she would be asked such an identity that surprised her.
Everyone who serves in the church knows who Siris is.
Even if there are a few people who don't understand this name, it's impossible for them to forget the miraculous event that happened in Anka two months ago.
Although it is a very strange thing to connect a former second prince of the empire who has nothing to do with the church with miraculous events, it is undeniable that there are many people who respect Bishop Calvin in the church. Therefore, these people had a natural sense of awe towards Sirius, who had to be treated kindly by Calvin.
Even if the person coming at this moment is not him.
"Yes, sister nun."
Liz was a little dissatisfied with this nun who interrupted her mission and delayed her from going home early to see Lord Sirius. However, she had no shortage of disguises as she should have. This was also the reason why she had just learned from Sirius. The truth learned from adults.
Maybe this is why this stupid church believes in its master so much that even the bishop here treats his master like a dog.
"The one I'm looking for is named Alice, and the other is named...Jim."
"Alice?"
When she heard the name, the nun had a puzzled expression on her face.
Because in her opinion, Alice's withdrawn and autistic character had no reason to meet such a sunny and cheerful girl in front of her?
These two people seemed to be from two different worlds, but when she thought that Sir Sirius was behind Liz, the nun felt a little relieved.
After all, everyone in the church knows that the only new person Alice has met recently is Lord Siris, who seems very gentle in appearance and conversation.
"Alice should be cleaning at the moment. As for Jim..." The nun's mind flashed to a scoundrel who was not doing business all day long and knew how to get close to all kinds of people. "I will take you to find him."
In the unknown Under the leadership of the nun, Liz, who looked very eye-catching in her maid uniform, walked through the church. In addition to feeling out of place, Liz herself also felt a little uncomfortable with the holy and solemn atmosphere here.
When she finally saw Jim, who was talking to another person, Liz found that the other person had also noticed her.
"You are... the maid in Lord Sirius's house?"
"Yes." Liz spoke in a very cold tone, completely lacking the gentleness she showed when facing Sirius, "Master asked me to give you a letter. "
As she spoke, Liz took out the envelope from her apron pocket, and after confirming that the recipient was Jim, handed it to Jim.
"The master asked me to tell you that this is the new job he has arranged for you."
"New job?"
When Jim heard the word, he was happy at first, and then immediately surprised.
Good guy, to arrange this kind of mission for him against the church and against Anka, he actually asked a maid to come over with a letter like this? Or even in front of so many people from other churches?
Jim had already seen that there seemed to be people around him looking at them. Although those glances were not malicious in nature, they just thought that the kind-hearted Lord Sirius had found a more suitable job for his friend. But it seemed to Jim to be full of suspicion, which made him itch all over.
"Do you want to refuse?"
Liz's expression was very calm. She neither smiled nor showed any dissatisfaction. She just mechanically performed the mission Sirius gave her like a tool to complete the task.
"No, of course not."
Jim swallowed, and then quickly stuffed the letter into his pocket. He had a weird look, although he was not admitting it, but he could only do this to avoid exposing more secrets.
"Miss maid, what is your name?"
After all, it was arranged by Lord Demon King. He, an ordinary royal magician, could not be neglected, so Jim also used the respectful title.
"Liz."
"Miss Liz, could you please tell me... When will Lord Siris plan to take action?"
When he said this, Jim's voice was very low, for fear of being known by others around him.
After all, this is the question he is most curious about right now. If it is not written in the letter, then it is better for him to go to the old devil and ask him, right?
So he could only please the maid in front of him who didn't seem to be very talkative, hoping to get a more accurate answer from her.
But it's a pity that after hearing this question, Liz didn't have any so-called answer in her heart, only deep doubts.
Of course she didn't know what Jim meant, and she didn't even know why the two people who came to visit her home inexplicably yesterday and made a mess of a good home suddenly became the master's subordinates.
Liz only knew that she must follow Siris's teachings and hide her thoughts at all times. "I can't tell you this question. The master only gave me this letter and didn't give any other instructions."
"Ah... yes, I understand."
Looking at Liz's back as she left, I felt mixed emotions in my heart. Of course, all the bad emotions just come from the guilt of being thrust into such a task in public, and the rest is only the inner excitement and excitement.
It seemed that it was time for him to show off his talents.
"Jim, I have the answer to the question you just asked me. I think..." "
Sorry, I have something to do and I have to go out for a while."
"Ah? That's okay."
He said to the new friend he just met. After saying hello, Jim felt the shape of the envelope with his hands and came outside the church with excitement.
After casually finding a remote road where no one would follow him and confirming that he didn't find any followers, he opened the envelope with some trembling and took out a few letters inside.
[Jim, I believe you have met my subordinate Hatton. 】
As expected of Lord Siris, it turns out that the other party already knew that Hatton would come to the church, and also knew that he had already been in contact with the other party.
[You did well and passed my test. Now you are qualified to become a qualified tool. As my subordinate, while you need to accept my orders, I will also give you certain benefits. 】
benefit? Could it be...
No, no, it's impossible for a terrifying person like the Demon King to teach him what he wants most so quickly, so he shouldn't directly tell him in the letter how to control the use of non-singing magic as a human being. .
With this thought in mind, Jim turned to the second page and continued reading.
[If you can complete the next task and do everything I need you to do, then I will personally teach you some magic skills that humans have never mastered.
Don’t worry, although these are not the things you want most, I believe this is also a brand new area that you have never understood after living for more than 30 years as a human being. 】
A new field? !
Jim was so excited that he couldn't breathe for a while, because he found that his understanding of the demons seemed to be only superficial.
He was originally thinking that if it weren't for the ability to control the original elements, there might be something else that humans couldn't understand that could be used to tempt him.
Now he knew that such a thing really existed, and he would soon have the opportunity to learn a thing or two.
It's a pity that the letter didn't explain clearly what this magical skill that humans had never understood was. This made Jim feel a little disappointed, but also made him more curious.
There is no way, the unknown always represents the strongest attraction, and knowing that this thing cannot be mediocre, this mysterious veil becomes even more fascinating.
Of course, all this comes at a price, that is, you need to complete the corresponding tasks yourself.
[After saying this, it’s time for you to show me your value.
Your task is not simple. Of course, if you are a subordinate who is qualified enough in my eyes, this task may also be simple.
You don't need to assist Hatton in anything he does. His work has its own purpose, and you don't need to look for him. There is only one thing you need to do, and that is to bring panic to the church. ]
Seeing this, the corners of Jim's mouth began to raise.
No wonder he didn't see the man named Hatton in the church again today. He never even came to him. Is this all there is to it?
Of course, he had already expected the task assigned to him by Siris. After all, once that black anti-element crystal was activated, the entire Anka would be completely unable to use magic.
If you think about it carefully, you will understand that in a remote place like Anka, most of the nobles have no advanced magical talents. There is only one purpose for using this kind of thing, and that is to completely make the church, which is good at light magic, only know how to cry in the apocalypse. The poor thing.
They prayed for light, but found that all the light had been swallowed up by darkness. They raised their scepters, but found that they could no longer bring down any hope to illuminate people's hearts.
Isn’t this panic and despair?
Jim felt a little scared and a little excited now. He knows that he is heading towards a doomed fate, but he is willing to keep moving forward on this road.
[You need to make the church feel the helpless fear before the end of the world in advance. You need to make them lose their faith and let the Ankain church, which is dominated by the church, collapse completely.
This is not just the destruction of a small border town, it is the beginning of the collapse of faith in an era. ]
Jim's hands kept shaking. He was completely shocked by this frightening speech. He felt that the devil he was following was something he didn't know how to describe at this moment.
Because, great...need no words.
