Chapter 29: Just One Book
Chapter 29 Just a Book
The Demonic Kingdom of Avarus is one of the very few countries without any religion.
This is mainly because the royal family believes that all demons should have only one god, and that is the Demon King God.
All gods other than these are false gods, heretics, and should not be believed in.
However, the Demon King God had never performed miracles before, and even his existence was just a legend, so the royal family of the Demon Kingdom of Avarus ordered a ban on all worship of gods.
Logically speaking, Count Leon is not wrong, and Princess Viola is openly defying national policy by doing this.
But from a practical point of view, it is questionable whether the Demon Kingdom of Avarus still exists, let alone any national policy.
Count Leon jumped out at this time, wanting to poke Viola in a subtle way.
The subtext is probably that if you want to preach, you must first change the national policy, and before changing the national policy, you must first take back the lost land.
So you should leave quickly and don't come back.
Viola grew up in the palace and was well aware of the intrigues and rhetoric of the nobles. However, she clearly understood what Count Leon meant, but she pretended to be confused and said:
"Count Leon, as a member of the royal family, I can tell you responsibly that our country does prohibit the spread of all religious beliefs, except for the belief in the Demon King."
"but……"
Count Leon pointed to the people behind him:
"It's too dangerous for you to gather so many untouchables. I know very well that once these untouchables gather together, they will easily cause trouble. If anything happens to you, I will not be able to explain it."
It seems like concern, but in fact it means that my family has ruled here for generations, and I know the character of the common people here best. As a princess from outside, you shouldn't do anything weird.
Viola still pretended to be confused even though she knew the truth:
"Count Leon, you should have more faith in them and the power of the people. After all, a country is made up of people. As a noble, you should set an example and lead the people to live a better life."
"Yes, Princess, you are right."
Now that things have come to this, Count Leon can only agree, even if only on the surface.
"Your Highness, I think you should..."
Before he could finish his words, he heard a soft "pop" sound, as if something had fallen to the ground.
Count Leon looked down and saw a book.
At that moment, Count Leon's pupils contracted and the blood in his body turned cold.
"Count Leon? What is that?"
Count Leon suppressed his fear and bent down to pick up the book as calmly as possible.
"Nothing, just a book I wear on my body."
"Oh? A book, huh?"
Seeing Princess Viola's half-smile, Count Leon felt as if the back of his head was about to explode.
"I'm sorry, Princess. It may be because the weather is a bit hot. I feel a little uncomfortable and want to go back first."
"Feeling unwell? Then Earl Leon must take care of himself. If the doctor doesn't work, you can come to me. I will use the magic bestowed by the Lord to treat you."
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."
Count Leon bowed again, but this time his hands seemed to shake a little.
Then he hurriedly took his people away without looking back, which inexplicably reminded Viola of the dog that ran away by its tail.
Seeing this, the Royal Guard Knight Shelley quietly approached Viola:
"Your Highness, is it really okay to let him go like this?"
"It doesn't matter. I can't judge him based on just one account book. It might make the locals think that I deliberately found a reason to get rid of Count Leon, which would be detrimental to the spread of your Majesty's faith."
This morning during prayer, the Devil King sent me an account book, which clearly recorded how Count Leon and his entire family embezzled taxes and disaster relief funds, and also contained a large number of vouchers and records of him selling contraband goods to merchants from other countries.
If the Demon Kingdom of Avarus still existed, one account book would be enough for Viola to dig up all the ancestral graves of Count Leon, but that was not possible now. Viola only had the Leon Territory left, so she had to act with caution.
Due to the soldiers brought by the count, some people had dispersed, and as the crowd dwindled, Viola noticed that four people were standing still.
They were three tall and one short, wearing simple fur cloaks that covered themselves tightly.
This style of painting makes people nervous at first glance, and the guards around put their hands on their weapons.
"Wait, don't be impulsive."
Viola signaled the guards to relax and waved to the four people:
"Are you from the Farthest Forest?"
The latter looked at each other after hearing that, and the leader took off his hood slightly, revealing his dark green hair and a pair of pointed ears.
–‐‐——–‐‐——
Tree elves are widely distributed and their traces can be found in all ancient forests.
Viola had heard of them, but this was the first time she had seen them in person.
A few people were left behind to continue preaching, while everyone moved to a meeting room in the castle.
As soon as they entered the door, the tree elves quickly lifted their hoods and took off their cloaks, and each of them drank half a pot of water before they recovered.
The tree elves had lost their perception of the outside world due to their long-term closed life. They had been living in the woods where it was spring all year round. They had no idea what the temperature should be in April. They thought it was still very cold, so they came out wearing thick furs. As a result, they almost suffered from heatstroke.
"You are the princess, right? The Demon King asked us to come here. I am Zoya. The two behind me are the druids of the woodland, Seymour and Al. The one holding my arm is my sister Leah."
Many tree elves have never had contact with outsiders. Zhuoya's voice was trembling, but at least the smooth conversation was an outstanding performance. The two druids didn't dare to speak at all, but just nodded continuously.
However, Leah was very familiar with him and immediately showed a very sweet smile:
"Hello, Princess."
Although they looked young, Viola knew that the youngest of the tree elves in front of her might actually be more than twice her age.
Elves have a lifespan of 500 years. They reach adulthood at around 100 years old and do not age after that.
"Welcome, Your Majesty told me that a friend of the tree elf would come to visit, but I'm not sure why the tree elf would be willing to show up."
The word "Your Majesty" is used to address the emperor, and the title of the Demon King God is "King of Demons", so Viola used the title "Your Majesty".
How could the tree elf, who had always lived a closed life, know this? However, Zhuoya reacted quickly and immediately followed Viola's words:
"Not long ago, the Lord dealt with a big problem for us."
I roughly explained the whole thing to Viola, adding a bunch of words of thanks.
"There are no believers of the Lord in our forest. We rely on this to deliver the message."
Zoya pointed to the pigeon on her shoulder, and Viola realized that the pigeon had the holy emblem of the Demon King on its legs.
"Since it is very troublesome to convey the message, the Lord asked us to come to the city to find you for details."
"Your Majesty did mention you to me. It just so happens that I need your help with something."
Viola snapped her fingers, and the guard knight beside her immediately opened a large sack and showed it to the tree elves.
"what is this?"
"A magical tuber, which Your Majesty calls potato."
