scepter

In fact, it is not so fast. Before going to the Charlemagne Empire, it is necessary to summarize and summarize as usual.

The elf baby fell asleep peacefully in Yannick's arms, and the others sat around him.

The fluffy rabbit ear hat moves with the elf's long breath, and there are two fur balls under the hat tightly tied to the chin to prevent the hat from falling out.

As for the sudden appearance of the baby, due to the presence of Priest Darwin, everyone had some guesses in their hearts, but they did not ask.

"Dear companions." Yannick said, "Reed Flute City is the front line of the Duchy of Mecklen's fight against the undead. I am very glad that you have experienced here for half a month. Now, maybe you don't mind telling me about your experience this time. and harvest?"

Everyone looked at each other, Ai Fuli coughed lightly, and said first: "I have to admit that although I was neglected when I was in the Central Holy See, I was much happier than these civilians and soldiers in the war. , I never thought that the war would be so cruel, and to be honest, I was so surprised when they told me that the offensive in the past half month was already the weakest wave since the war began.”

"I used to look down on civilians." Augustine said with a blank expression: "I think they are weak, ignorant, and vulnerable, but this time I changed my opinion, and I retracted my previous prejudice against them. With magic power, The priests who stand at the top of the human pyramid are sometimes far inferior to ordinary civilians."

"I agree with what Augustine said, because I met a little girl." Morton said softly. He was a priest recommended by Bishop Lahe, but he had the softest heart among all the priests. "She is so young, but she already knows how to help her parents take care of her younger siblings. When she heard that her mother was infected with the Black Death, she stopped me passing by, knelt down and begged me to save her mother, and said she was willing to use everything she had. Including life, in exchange for her mother's vitality. They are so small, but I have to admit that sometimes I can see some great qualities in them."

Compared with Avery and Augustine as his left and right assistants, Yannick has never thought about the appropriate position for Morton, because he is gentle and kind, and in the work that needs to deal with all kinds of people , If you don't pay attention, you can easily be tricked, so Yannick has been a little distressed about his positioning.

In fact, the summary of this meeting is not just for everyone to talk about their feelings in the past half a month. Yannick hopes to give them a more accurate positioning through their ideas.

Lev, who is also a newcomer like Morton, is much shrewd and capable. Yannick intends to let him shoulder the logistics work within the future team, because he has amazing talents in finance and calculation.But obviously, no one has ever tapped his talent in this area before. When he first came to the team, Yannick asked him what he was doing before, and his answer was that he was in charge of cleaning all the statues of the Central Holy See!

This made Yannick very speechless, the Holy See is simply a waste of talent!

After Morton finished speaking, Yannick took his words: "I am very glad that you are not arrogant because you are priests. On the contrary, you have amazing sobriety and can clearly see your own shortcomings, which is enough for you Becoming the best priest, I am not exaggerating, you must know that many people in the Holy See are still immersed in the dream of feeling good about themselves until now, they cannot see their own flaws, this is a dangerous sign."

He glanced around, everyone stood up in awe at his words, sat upright, and listened carefully, only Priest Darwin couldn't sit still, as if a needle had grown under his buttocks.

"Priest Darwin," the silver-haired bishop smiled, "I see that you look very uncomfortable, do you want to go back and take a rest?"

"Ah, no, no, no, sir, I'm fine!" Darwin was very tangled. From the heart, he was very impatient to listen to this kind of preaching, but from the rational point of view, he felt that as "Gustav Archbishop's people", it would be very disrespectful to pass up this opportunity to inquire about information.

His dripping eyes rolled around, and finally landed on the elf in Yannick's arms.

Darwin was not stupid. When Yannick left them alone, he had guessed that this place was very close to the elf territory, and the bishop had saved an elf, so maybe he and the elf also kept secrets Contact, this is important information!

He wanted to report to Archbishop Gustav, but because he had no evidence, he was worried about being scolded, so he suppressed his curiosity and followed Avery and the others on the front line for half a month. He was finally released after serving his sentence. At this time, Yannick Finally came back, and brought an unidentified baby, anyone would think more about it.

Yannick saw his gaze and smiled slightly: "It's okay, Darwin, I've been holding Irus for a long time, and my arms are sore and heavy, would you like to take care of him for me, and you can take him for a walk outside by the way , but don't go too far."

"Of course! Of course! I'd love to!" Darwin was overjoyed. Just as he was about to doze off, someone handed him a pillow. He hurriedly took the baby from Yannick's hand, and walked out staggeringly.

"Your Excellency, Darwin..." Avery was a little worried.

"It doesn't matter, he can't do anything to Illus, I cast a protective spell on him." Yannick paused, his expression became serious, "I sent Darwin away to tell you that I met someone in the elf territory. accident."

So he briefly talked about the monster rebelling as an elf and invading the elf territory, skipping his alliance with the elf queen, and also skipping the role played by the blood duke and the black mage, focusing on the credit for eliminating the monster Put it on the elf queen.

"The tentacles of the monsters are getting longer and longer. Although the power of the undead is getting weaker and weaker, it seems that humans are about to win, but judging from the scale and layout of the monster invasion, it will not be so easy. In the end, more importantly, they know us far more than we know them. Even," he glanced at everyone and said slowly, "even if the monsters are possessing us now On someone, we won't know until he doesn't want to be exposed."

Everyone was horrified by what he said, and they couldn't help but look at the people around them.

Ai Fuli jokingly said to lighten the atmosphere: "If you are a monster, then all of us are finished now."

"Ah, yes, this is a good idea. If I were a monster, what would I do? Let you all die on the front line? No, this is not in the interests of monsters. They want to destroy human beings, so they shouldn't do that Short-sighted thing, maybe as a monster, I should strive hard to become the Pope, and then lead the Holy See to fight against humans?" The silver-haired priest rubbed his chin, thinking about this question seriously.

"I have a better idea, Lord Hill," the always calm Alexander also joked, "You can use your incomparable appearance to mesmerize us!"

"I am a man, Alexander. A man would not be happy to hear others praise his appearance." The silver-haired bishop suppressed his smile. Just when Alexander was a little uneasy and worried that he would offend him by saying the wrong thing, the bishop added another sentence : "Although what you said is true."

Everyone laughed, and Avery patted Priest Alexander sympathetically, showing a terrified expression.

Yannick looked at the priests and knights sitting around him. Those who could be elected to the Central Holy See, of course, would not be difficult to see in terms of appearance and figure, and they could be called handsome and energetic.

Now that they have gradually experienced it, their faces no longer have that defiant and proud look on their faces when they followed him just now, their originally fair skin has turned bronze due to the sun and rain, and their gestures have become more stable. , especially Avery and Augustine, Yannick can now trust them with many things.

However, he wants to continue to develop, and the group of priests also needs to continue to develop. In the future, it will not be just these people. For the sake of long-term goals, Yannick will continue to pressurize them and let them go out to face the wind and rain alone , I hope they can grow up faster, and also use this to remove some unqualified people from the team.

At present, everything is developing smoothly, and it is progressing smoothly on the track he planned. According to this progress, it may not be long before this priest group will be able to surpass all priest groups and become the best in the Holy See. A group of priests, also became his most powerful arm!

At this moment, there was a loud cry from outside, accompanied by the sweaty figure of Priest Darwin rushing in.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency, I really can't help it!" Darwin's body was wet a lot, he looked very embarrassed, and his expression was about to cry.

Yannick held back a smile and coughed lightly, and took the baby in his hand. "It's okay, let me do it."

As soon as the receiver took over, the elf's crying stopped miraculously, and he was transformed into the same big blue eyes with wet eyes, tears on his face, and his little head kept turning around. Turned away, sucking his finger, looking very curious.

Little badass.

Yannick said something silently, and praised him for the trouble he caused Darwin just right.

But Darwin didn't give up.

He became more and more suspicious of the elf's identity.

Although Yannick never fed in front of him, and no one else revealed the true identity of the elf to him, Darwin dared to use Archbishop Gustav's personality to guarantee that there was definitely something wrong with this little Illus.

Given this skepticism, she decided to try again at another opportunity.

On this day, while everyone was staying in a small town near Reed Flute City and Yannick was out shopping, Darwin managed to sneak into the bishop's room without telling Bart and Baker.

The elf is sleeping on his back, his mouth is slightly open, and the saliva is flowing from the corner of his mouth. Even when he is sleeping, he has not taken off the hat on his head. Although this is cute, it seems too weird to Darwin .

He didn't dare to be careless, he took out his staff and threw a shroud of holy light on the elf. Although his spells were learned so casually and the effect was hard to say how ideal, the quality is still guaranteed when used on children .

After throwing the spell, Priest Darwin was finally relieved. Because of his guilty conscience and lack of courage, he tiptoed around and finally walked to the bedside.

He reached for the hat tie under the elf's chin, and just as he touched it, the elf opened his eyes.

Darwin almost broke out in a cold sweat, and quickly covered his mouth.

"Oh my god, didn't I use the holy light to envelop, why is it useless!" He whispered to himself, trying to communicate with a baby: "Cute baby, I like your hat very much, let me Take it off and look at it, just look at it!...Don't bark, don't bark! Oh damn, why didn't I bring a handful of candies! Okay, that's it, yes, don't move, I let go of your Mouth, you can't bark!"

The elf seemed to understand, and the big blue eyes like Yannick looked at Darwin for a moment, and there was no sign of crying.

Darwin heaved a sigh of relief, slowly let go of his hand, took out his staff and planned to cast another spell, while reaching for his hat tie.

The little elf suddenly giggled and danced, as if seeing something funny.

Laughing is better than crying, but before Darwin had time to rejoice, he saw the elf baby pouting his mouth and patting Darwin's face with his little hands.

Then sprayed saliva all over his face.

Darwin: "..."

The elf was very happy: "Ah!"

"You damn...!" Darwin was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and wanted to hit him, but before he could raise his hand, he heard the door of the room being opened. He couldn't react in time, and he still kept raising his hand Looking back in a foolish manner, he met Yannick who pushed the door open.

Yannick: "..."

Darwin: "...Ahaha, I saw Illus so cute, I wanted to come in and play with him, his face is so slippery, Mr. Hill, do you mind if I touch him?"

Yannick: "..."

Darwin forced a smile desperately: "Since you are back, I will go back and play with Illus next time. Illus, let's say goodbye!"

"Ah!" The elf waved his fist, showing a toothless smile.

Yannick was calm and not angry: "Priest Darwin, remember to wipe off the drool on your face."

Darwin's face was pale, he didn't dare to answer, and ran out scrambling.

After he left, Bart and Baker walked in, followed by Alexander.

"Alexander, thank you for reporting to me in advance." Yannick smiled.

"This is what I should do, Your Excellency. I also overheard Priest Darwin doubting the identity of Illus, so I thought I should remind you first." Alexander blushed easily when he spoke, "But Your Excellency, I am not very sure. I understand, since you already know that Priest Darwin wants to check the identity of Illus, why did you let him in?"

Yannick smiled, "You should also know that Priest Darwin belongs to Archbishop Gustav. If he has not gained anything, Archbishop Gustav will replace him sooner or later. We are not familiar with him at all. It’s better to be him all the time, so he has to be a little worried, anyway, he won’t be able to grasp anything in the end.”

"Ah," Alexander frowned, "what if it is accidentally discovered?"

"That's impossible." Yannick blinked, and took off Illus' hat with his own hands. Inside the silver hair, the pointed ears they imagined were completely gone, replaced by normal human ears.

Alexander, Bart and Baker were dumbfounded.

"What's going on here!" Bart couldn't control his big mouth again, "Is Illusstat really your child?"

"Bart, I have said many times that I have no illegitimate children." The silver-haired bishop remained expressionless, "As my knight, if such rumors spread, do you want His Majesty the Pope to call me back for tea?"

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency!" Bart blushed, "It's just that this is too surprising! I thought..."

"What do you think?" Yannick pinched the elf's ears, showing a mysterious smile: "This is a surprising little secret, isn't it?"

The three people who were spoiled by the silver-haired bishop left the room with question marks on their heads.

After they left, Yannick pinched the ear of the elf Illus.

As if by magic, the human-like ears instantly changed back to the elf-specific pointed ears.

Pinch it again, and it becomes round ears again.

Pinch again to change back to pointy ears.

Just like a switch.

Yannick felt that it was quite amusing, and pinched it a few times, until the elf was pinched stupidly and belatedly hurt, and his mouth was puffed up to cry, he realized that his behavior just now was very childish .

There was a slight laugh in the room, and the black-clothed mage came out of nowhere, looking at him with a slightly curved mouth on his paralyzed face, which made the silver-haired priest feel embarrassed.

Yannick coughed lightly, trying to save his elegant image: "Thank you very much for your timely appearance and the magic potion you just sent me, Chris."

"You don't need to thank me," the mage felt that it was worth using an advanced invisibility scroll in exchange for his sweetheart's forgiveness. After thinking about it, he added in the tone of the Duke of Blood: "You know how much I love you."

That would seem to be more inspiring.

Sure enough, the priest froze for a moment, with a complicated expression and a little helpless: "Chris."

Master: "Huh?" Are you moved?

Priest: "Don't talk like Ans."

Mage: "..."
