"That's right, Your Majesty. The people from the church are still waiting at the city gate."

Swan reported the whole incident to the dwarf king Eidol.

"You seem quite arrogant... It seems like you have bad intentions... Besides, if we just let a Saint in, it will be troublesome..."

"Then what do you mean..."

"Bring them to me and I will receive them personally. Also, send more people to prevent them from finding any chance to cause trouble."

"Yes."

......

"Damn you dwarves... hurry up and send someone to hurry them up. You let a noble cardinal stand outside and eat sand? All right, all of you wrapped up tightly and didn't say a word... wait, you will get what you deserve sooner or later..."

Albert pointed at the dwarf warriors who were blocking the city gate and cursed.

"Master Medici, what happened?"

Beatrice asked as she came from a distance with the remaining followers.

"Lady Saint..."

As soon as he saw Beatrice...or more precisely, when he saw Isabella in the team, Albert immediately restrained himself and became respectful.

"If you have anything to say, please talk about it nicely... So, what happened?"

"The dwarves left us here, which is obviously disrespectful to Lady Saint and Lady Menethil... In my opinion, maybe we should give them something... How?"

Albert said this, making a gesture to "show them some color".

"Let's not do that... They asked us to wait, so we just wait... There's nothing to lose anyway..."

Albert listened to the saint's words in front of him, saying that she was not afraid of back pain, but he didn't know how to get angry.

You have nothing to lose, I've been eating sand here for a long time...

Just as Albert was about to bypass the vase saint and report directly to Isabella in the team...

The dwarves' airtight formation suddenly broke apart, and Swan finally came back.

"Sorry for the long wait. Your Majesty invites you."

"It's been too long, dwarf. Isn't that a bit disrespectful to the goddess's messenger?"

Albert said sarcastically.

"I'm sorry, the journey from the city gate to the palace is indeed quite far. It's not as comfortable as your hometown where you can get everything at your fingertips. Please forgive me."

Swan was not to be outdone.

"Humph."

"Hello, Mr. Dwarf. My name is... Beatrice, the current Saint of the Holy Light Church. Nice to meet you. May the Goddess bless you."

Unlike Albert, Beatrice came forward politely and greeted Swan.

"Hello, Miss Beatrice. Although this is our first meeting, I think you will be a good person to talk to. Please come this way."

As Swan spoke, he glanced at Albert, his meaning was self-evident.

"......you......"

Although Albert was very angry with the dwarf, he could only swallow his anger in front of everyone.

......

"Mr. Dwarf, I haven't asked for your name yet?"

"Swann Hantie, Miss Beatrice, just call me by my name."

"What a beautiful city... Freedum, and there are so many... people... I've never seen before?"

I wonder what this saint’s life was like before...Has she only seen humans?

"Oh... those with furry ears on their heads... are they the demi-humans? And those are... the demons? They're not as... scary as they say..."

"Let me correct you, young lady. Those are the beastmen. They don't like people calling them 'subhumans'."

"I'm sorry... I didn't know..."

"Tsk... Dirty and stupid pariahs, is this city specially designed to take in these inferior species?"

Albert was blunt and could not hide his disdainful look.

"Cough cough!"

A familiar cough was heard in the team, and Albert immediately shut his mouth.

Residents of various races stood on both sides, looking at the team with disgust.

Most of the people who can come to Freedum are those who can't make it in other places. As for the reason... maybe we should ask the great Church of Holy Light, they would know more?

......

After paying respects to the fallen warriors of the Kingdom of Fajia yesterday, Maglock returned to Freedum. Of course, he passed through the city gate amidst the sandstorm...

The words spoken by the cat-eared girl named Wu Yue kept echoing in his mind.

As living people, what should we do to make ourselves worthy of those who have passed away?

After arriving in Freedum, a city they called the "Heart of Freedom," Maglock always felt that it was different.

So many different races can coexist peacefully here...

Many of these races were once enemies...

why?

Maglock, who grew up in the Kingdom of Faga, was instilled with this idea since birth:

The demons and humans are mortal enemies. Every qualified Fajia should be able to wield the sword in his hand and kill the damn demons.

As for other races besides the demons, the attitude is different.

Those who can unite to fight against the demons are friends, and those who do not show any malice towards the demons are enemies...

Because of this, the Kingdom of Farga is not so... popular in diplomacy...

After all, the Kingdom of Faga is an ancient human kingdom that existed before this era... It is a survivor that survived the bloody storm and hail of arrows thousands of years ago... and its hatred for the demons is the most profound...

Unlike other human countries today, when they were first born, the overall environment of humans and demons was peaceful...

Except for the Marley Papal State, the other countries are strictly speaking "enemies" of the Kingdom of Fajia...

However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Papal State of Marley was built on the corpse of the Faga Empire.

The Church of Holy Light is undoubtedly a thief of the country...

This is how it should be...

But the fact is that the church has a strong suppression power over the Kingdom of Faga, and even His Majesty obeys the Pope's orders...

Maglock has always believed that he is an outlier... He never dared to reveal these heretical ideas to others...

But... Freedum...

This really subverted my own ideas in many ways.

It even makes people regret that they were enemies of freedom and helped Saleh suppress the uprising...

For this unjust war, for the shameful achievement of returning to His Majesty's side...

Maglock nearly lost his honor as a knight and broke his oath...

It also caused a lifetime of regret...

In short, Maglock is now very conflicted... Even if he is reinstated and forgiven by His Majesty for his past sins... he doesn't know what to do next...

"Mom, I want to eat that!"

The childish voice brought Maglock back to reality.

He looked towards the source of the sound.

That was a mother and daughter, but this was a demon mother and daughter...

The little girl who just grew horns on her head was begging her mother for snacks from a roadside stall...

Yeah...even though they are different races...the civilians are similar in many ways...

"You can buy it, but you have to eat your meal well, do you hear me?"

"I know~"

The little demon girl got what she wanted, and happily ran to the other end of the street holding the snacks in her hand.

"Ouch!"

The little girl was so busy enjoying herself that she didn't know who she bumped into, and the snacks in her hand also stained the red robe of the tall man in front of her.

A cruel look was immediately cast on the little girl lying on the ground.

"Demons? How dare you, little bastard..."
