"The above is the process of our crusade against the Witch Cult in Mezas Territory."

Xiao Lin said calmly.

The dangerous crusade, the fierce offensive and defensive battles, and the tense pursuit battles are omitted.

It was supposed to be a great achievement for defeating the White Whale and expelling the Witch Cult, but I didn't hear any words of pride or showing off from his mouth, and there was no emotional ups and downs at all.

Even if this is indeed the post-war report and summary session, at least you should be happy, right?

Yes, they have returned to the royal capital.

We are currently at the Duke's Mansion in Kurciu, discussing the whole story of this crusade against the White Whale and the Sin Archbishop.

At the same time, in addition to Kursch and Rem, Emilia was also among them.

When the Witch Cult attacked, the evacuation team was divided into two teams.

Most of the civilians were sent to the sanctuary to seek refuge with Roswaal, while the remaining small number followed Emilia to the royal capital.

After all, he is a candidate for the king's election, but he still needs to obey the orders of the council at all times.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Kurxiu took a deep breath and nodded to Xiaolin.

She is the one who knows best how terrifying and crazy the Sin Archbishop is, so she naturally understands the thrilling process in Xiaolin's understatement report. She must have been involved in a tough battle against the Lazy Archbishop.

"If it hadn't been for Kobayashi and Reinhardt this time, there would have been heavy casualties. Even mine might have died."

He couldn't help but clenched his fists.

Soon a pair of small white hands covered it. It was Phyllis who noticed something strange and comforted her.

The cat-eared male knight cared about his master very much. After hearing that the expedition team returning to the capital was attacked by the Archbishop of Sin, he rushed into the Duke's Mansion like crazy to look for someone. When he saw the weak but awakened Kull Relax after repairing.

Her missing arm was barely saved after timely treatment.

This is good news.

Same thing on the other side.

It's just that the person who comforted him turned around.

It was obviously Rem who narrowly escaped death in a crisis, but it was Natsuki Subaru who was comforted by the fear that his expression was distorted.

It's actually not surprising.

Natsuki Subaru thought that if Reinhardt had not rescued him in time, and if he felt satisfied after rescuing Emilia and the world line was fixed, then the fact that Rem died or was killed would never be changed.

I was sweating all of a sudden.

Hidden malice may strike at any time.

Doesn't this tell him that he must not let down his guard if he wants to save everyone?

Enough shit!

The triangular-eyed boy looked gratefully at Xiao Lin, and Xiao Lin nodded slightly to indicate that he didn't need to thank him.

He must have learned enough lessons after almost losing Rem.

"Let's talk about what happened to us."

After briefly sorting out the information, Kurxiu said: "On the way back, we met the Archbishop of Sin."

"Hmm."

Everyone's bodies tensed slightly, and the air became thicker.

Even if they already know it, they are still a little nervous when they hear this disgusting title again. After all, they already have a deep understanding of how difficult the Sin Archbishop is.

"They call themselves the Priests of Gluttony and Priests of Lust."

"What, the Priest of Lust?!"

Julius exclaimed in a low voice, which was inconsistent with his previous stable and elegant image.

"The Priest of Lust is...the one Julius mentioned?"

When heading to the Mezas Territory, Julius mentioned this name when he gave Natsuki Subaru a science guide.

Because they are the two most famous.

One of them is active, one poses greater danger, and the Priest of Lust is the latter.

Regulus Corneas...

"The other party broke through the so-called strongest border defense city alone without any injuries. Even Korgan, who was evenly matched with Mr. Wilhelm, was killed. Meow, I didn't expect to meet him here."

Phyllis took the initiative to explain that the information she could bring was a bit scary.

Natsuki Subaru exclaimed: "What did you say?! One person broke through a city? No injuries? What is that? It's a monster!"

This is no longer the level where one horse can defeat a thousand, it is completely beyond common sense.

"Yes, it's not an exaggeration to say they are monsters."

"But Reinhardt, who killed them two, is even more of a monster among monsters, right?!"

I have to say that Subaru Natsuki was jealous.

Can the man who is known as the strongest man on the face of the earth be able to easily kill even two Sin Archbishops? It was already extremely difficult for them to get rid of a lazy Archbishop.

It’s so irritating that people are so different from each other!

But little did he know that Reinhardt had long classified himself as a monster, and he was also a monster who hunted monsters.

"Also, I would like to apologize to Lord Cursch."

"Why?"

"Because the members of the Iron Fang, when facing the Sin Archbishop..."

"It doesn't matter. At that time, it would be the best solution for everyone to move reinforcements. There is no reason to apologize to me."

Kursch didn't think the option at that time was to run away.

Facing an invincible enemy, the first thing to do is to flee the battlefield and then move in reinforcements, which is the so-called strategic retreat.

"Okay, okay, don't thank me anymore."

Natsuki Subaru intervened at an inappropriate time, and it was useless even if Emilia wanted to stop him, because he was more curious about another thing.

"Whether the appearance of beluga whales has something to do with them."

"It is related. When I met Archbishop Greed and Archbishop Gluttony, they seemed to know that the White Whale would appear there. I think they must have summoned it. Miss Rem can also testify to this."

"...I think so."

After seeing Rem nod slightly, Natsuki Subaru sighed deeply.

Wilhelm asked curiously: "What do you mean, Lord Natsuki Subaru?"

Natsuki Subaru explained: "Before fighting Archbishop Sloth, I asked him about the trial, and the answer I got was that the White Whale was summoned intentionally by the Witch Cult."

"What does this mean, meow?"

"That is to say, Sloth, Greed, and Gluttony, the three of them are together, not just appearing together... does it mean."

Julius answered Ferris's doubts.

How unlucky is Emilia, to be targeted by three Archbishops of Sin.

But it seems that several Archbishops of Sin are even more unlucky, and they all failed here. They probably didn't expect it, they must have thought it was just an ordinary mission or trial, but they were killed like this.

Really... great!

"In this way, the three archbishops of laziness, greed, and gluttony have disappeared."

Someone sighed softly, and said with a heavy heart to the ill-fated world.

"Ah, I remember now."

Subaru Natsuki clapped his hands, and after everyone else looked over, he said, "I heard from Petelgeuse... Archbishop Sloth that the Archbishop Pride is still vacant. Does that mean that the Archbishop Pride has been killed, or is he not in the same group as the other Archbishops of Sin?"

"Well... we can't jump to conclusions like that."

"Yes, Subaru, maybe the Archbishop Pride is hiding somewhere."

"But this is very useful information, thank you for conveying it, Lord Natsuki."

"Well done, Subaru."

Others praised Subaru Natsuki, making the triangular-eyed boy, who rarely received praise, scratch his head shyly, and quickly waved his hand to say that it was nothing.

At this point, the entire context of the Witch Cult's attack was sorted out.

"I have a suggestion for this, meow."

The cat-eared man raised his hand happily, but what he said next was not cheerful.

"Felice, do you have anything else to say?"

"Lord Crusch, I propose to cancel the alliance with Subaru."

The air in the conference room froze with just one sentence.

This was something that everyone had deliberately avoided talking about, but unexpectedly, Ferris would bring it up.

Subaru Natsuki's body heated up in one breath.

But in contrast to his burning heart, he asked back in a calm voice: "What does that mean, why do you want to cancel the alliance?"

"Because you see, the alliance is something that is mutually beneficial. But our interests have been offset, so there is no point in helping you."

Felice was right.

Crouch was also weighing the pros and cons, so he didn't stop him.

Subaru Natsuki knew very well that the next thing to say was how to impress Crusch and make her choose the alliance again.

"What about the forest mining rights? It's true that we helped you fight the White Whale, and you helped us eliminate the Archbishop of Sloth, so we're even, but..."

"If we continue the alliance, it means we have to help Lady Emilia who is targeted by the Witch Cult? Or can Subaru guarantee that he won't let Lady Crusch suffer more harm?"

"But she was saved by Reinhard, right?"

"But if we don't form an alliance, she won't be attacked at all, right? And in the final analysis, Reinhard is Kobayashi's man, not yours, Subaru."

"I..."

The continuous questions made him hesitate and he didn't know how to continue.

Ferris said these just because he was worried about Crusch's safety, but he had no right to persuade him. After all, it was an indisputable fact that he was attacked by the Witch Cult.

Emilia is a container.

Subaru Natsuki learned this news from the Archbishop of Sloth. Obviously, the attacks on Emilia will become more fierce in the future, and anyone involved will be involved.

In this case, it would be better to simply cut off the relationship, since they are opponents on the road to the royal election anyway.

... That's what Ferris thought.

"I object."

It was not Natsuki Subaru who refuted Ferris, but Wilhelm.

"Lord Crusch was attacked by the Witch Cult. As the next candidate for the royal election, we must retaliate, otherwise we will be ridiculed."

"But...!"

"Besides, Lord Crusch has not made a statement yet. As a subject, you can only advise."

"Hmm--"

Hearing the old swordsman say this, the cat-eared man looked at the Duchess with tears in his eyes. His expression was completely that he didn't want to have anything to do with Emilia and the others anymore.

By the way, the silver-haired half-elf girl kept her head down and kept silent the whole time.

The other party was implicated and injured because of her, so he had no right to say anything, and her heart was full of apologies.

Crusch still had his eyes closed.

After waiting for a while, she said, "I want to ask your answer."

"Me?"

"That's right. Lord Kobayashi is also one of Lord Natsuki Subaru's allies, so I want to hear your answer."

The Duchess passed the ball to Kobayashi.

Was she really unsure, or was she testing him, or was she conveying it through his mouth?

Kobayashi didn't know.

But...

"I choose to continue the alliance."

"Kobayashi!"

Hearing Kobayashi's answer, Natsuki Subaru's expression was delighted.

If the thickest thighs abandoned him, he would really cry to death.

Kursch said, raised his eyebrows and asked: "Can you tell me the reason for continuing the alliance?"

"It's very simple. Because Natsuki-kun is the best bait."

"Bait?"

"The whereabouts of the Witch Cult are elusive and erratic, but their target is indeed Emilia. Now that we know their target, can't we use Emilia to find the Witch Cult?"

Kobayashi's answer is not unreasonable.

Natsuki Subaru found it a little difficult to accept that he was used as bait, but in order to continue the alliance, he had to pinch his nose and accept it.

"Crisis is an opportunity."

Kobayashi smiled and said: "I don't deny that the Witch Cult is very difficult. It is a group of troublesome guys like endless cockroaches, but as long as they can be defeated, they can gain a lot of fame. I don't think any candidate for the King's Choice will refuse."

Besides, they also have Reinhard, the strongest on the surface.

Not to mention that there are still three Archbishops of Sin left, even if there are another thirty, they can be easily defeated!

With the son of the world in hand, he has the confidence to speak.

"Your answer really touches my heart."

Crusch is also a very courageous character.

In fact, she never intended to give up the alliance with Emilia from the beginning.

If you want to get better, you have to pay the corresponding price. Equivalent exchange is something that even children know, but Ferris was too worried about Crusch's safety, so she missed the judgment.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Witch Cult is the biggest cancer in the world. If you want to gain merit and fame, there is no better way than to defeat the Witch Cult.

"That means, the alliance continues?"

"Ah, of course."

"Humph!"

The cat-eared man saw that he could not persuade his master, and he pouted and left the meeting room. Crusch had no choice but to apologize and chase after him to appease him.

As the master left, the stiff atmosphere eased.

Subaru Natsuki took a deep breath and said, "It's finally over. I'm really exhausted."

"Are you okay, Subaru (sir)?" X2

Amelia and Rem said in unison.

Enjoying the care of the two beautiful girls, the triangular-eyed boy waved his hand and said, "I'm actually fine. Thanks to Kobayashi's reminder, otherwise it wouldn't have been so smooth."

"What are you talking about? It's all your credit, Natsuki-kun. Whether it's joining forces with Crusch and Anastasia to defeat the white whale, or arranging the villagers to escape and defeat the witch cult that launched the attack, or riding the dragon car to save Emilia at the end, if there is a selection this time, you will undoubtedly be the best MVP."

"Is that so? I seem to have done a lot of things along the way that I am afraid of when I think about it."

After being praised by Kobayashi, Subaru Natsuki realized how many miraculous things he had done.

That was a situation where one wrong step would lead to an abyss of no return.

He was sweating profusely again.
