Demon Royal Family

On the way back, Ivo turned the notes of the captain of the night watch to the last page and found the record about the brass disc.

"At the western foot of the Green Forest Mountain, we discovered a cave that looked like the mouth of a beast. The dark entrance made me feel ominous. For reconnaissance purposes, we entered the cave. The cave was winding and dark, and the slope sloped downward. We walked for an unknown amount of time. , an open underground space appeared in front of us, and it was estimated that we were at the heart of the mountain. The underground space was dark and quiet. After lighting the torch, we found a huge dark golden door in front of us, about seven people high and thirteen people wide."

"The giant dark gold door is carved with vine-like patterns, which look like some kind of ancient writing. Green moss marks occupy most of the door. It can be determined that this giant door has a long history and was probably built before the Age of Night. Inlaid on the giant door Looking at the brass disk, I accidentally discovered the name of Archbishop Augusta engraved on it. Legend has it that Augusta disappeared more than ten years ago while searching for a lost ruins. We may have found clues. We are going to Take the brass disk back to Lascelles Cathedral.”

"Beside the groove of the inlaid disk, someone carved a message in Common Language: 'During carnival festivals, the dead will open the golden door, hold a banquet in the palace that was once covered with vines and vines, and welcome those who have come from afar. Guest, it is a pity that it is now dust and yellow sand.' According to this, we have reason to believe that there is an ancient ruins behind the dark gold door. The brass disc is the key to open the door, which can be opened on the carnival day of the dead in the month of prayer. Gate of ruins..."

He fell into deep thought. The brass disc was the key to ancient ruins. It was opened on the Day of the Dead and contained clues to the missing Augusta...

Augusta was a friend of Uncle Berman and seemed to be a big shot in the church. This aroused his curiosity. No matter what the reason was, it was imperative to go to the ruins to investigate.

Ivo was very excited, adventure, exciting adventure.

Fortunately, there is still time. The Month of Prayer is still half a year away.

As they got closer to the city of Laces, Paro left first. Ivo entered the city full of thoughts and suddenly stopped. There was a familiar woman in the distance.

In a quiet street, a man and a woman look across the street.

"Nafi?"

"Where have you been?"

"I... went out for a walk in the city."

"You think I believe it?"

"You should be able to believe it...right?"

Nafei approached helplessly, lifted up Ivo's hood, and saw a faint trace of blood. Her delicate hands paused, and a pair of beautiful eyes like stars stared at Ivo, worried and blamed.

Ivo touched his head awkwardly: "It fell."

Nafi stared at Ivo. Ivo thought she was going to scold him, but unexpectedly Nafi lowered her gaze and pulled Ivo's sleeve into the carriage: "Go back to the manor to recuperate."

Ivo snorted and said awkwardly: "You didn't ask me where I was?"

Nafei lowered her eyes and said in a tone as calm as water, "What do you have to ask? If you die, I will die. Can I still care about you?"

Ivo coughed to hide his embarrassment.

However, Nafi Furui's voice sounded in his ears: "Remember to take me with you next time."

Ivo looked at Nafi, her long eyelashes trembling slightly: "If you still think of me as a friend."

Ivo sighed and nodded heavily: "Okay."

…

After meeting Talper, he was forced to recuperate at the manor. Nafi was unusually tough this time, and Ivo had no choice but to accept the arrangement.

After breaking through to level 2 warrior, Ivo also needs a period of consolidation.

In the Hurricane Academy, the warrior department is conducting a practical class.

Valer and Hades stood opposite each other. Valer swallowed nervously. Today he was Hades's sparring opponent.

Hades drew out his dagger and flew through it like a gust of wind, leaving an afterimage on the spot. He appeared on the side of Valer in an instant, and the dagger was like a drill, and he quickly stabbed Valer's temple.

Valer was almost stabbed to death and was horrified.

Hades went all out, and the dagger drew a large net with cold light, and under the hood, Valer could only hold his left and right.

Ten seconds after the fight, Hades caught a flaw, kicked Valer down, and stabbed his chest with a dagger. Valer panicked and shouted: "Help!"

The dagger stopped two centimeters away from Valer's chest. Valer was shocked and gasping for air.

Hades frowned and looked at the dagger. He fought with Valer with all his strength like he was fighting Ivo, but Valer was defeated in the blink of an eye, and he felt unhappy.

Mary trotted up to him, handed Hades a handkerchief, her face flushed, and said, "Brother Hades, wipe your face with my handkerchief."

Hades looked at the handkerchief in confusion, wondering why this unfamiliar girl handed him the handkerchief.

After being stunned for a while, he stuffed the handkerchief back to Mary who was caught off guard. Hades came to Ender and asked expressionlessly: "Where is Ivo?"

Ender was watching the students compete with each other with envy. He was afraid of getting hurt and hurting others, so he rarely fought. When he heard Hades' question, he was stunned and said hurriedly: "Ivo seems to have gone home. Not in the academy.”

Hades shook his head and went aside to train combat skills alone. He was not going to compete with these students anymore. It was boring.

…

Lasces Cathedral is located in the center of the eastern civilian area. It is built of pure white marble. There are 23 stone pillars erected at the door. The church has a towering dome. The interior is divided into six halls, connected by corridors, in a six-pointed star layout, enshrining the northern kingdoms. Idols of gods - this is the pantheon believed by most people in Frigga continent.

The four main gods of the Northern Gods each occupy a separate hall, "Ice Goddess" Meserys, "Grug Goddess" Freria, "Hearth God" Pokared, "Frost Ancestral Dragon" Vodorima .

The other two halls were dedicated to the remaining northern gods.

The most senior clergy member of Lascelles Cathedral is the Archbishop, with official positions just below the seven cardinals.

The official system of the Holy See is relatively complicated, divided into civil servants and clergy. The lowest level of the civil staff is the deacon, and the highest level is the pope. The civil servants manage the development of the Holy See, industry, wealth, missionary work, etc.

The High Priest in White and the High Priest of the Holy Word both belong to the clergy. The highest clerical rank is the Patriarch, which is on the same level as the Pope, but has different responsibilities. The total number of official positions in the two systems exceeds one hundred.

The civil service and the priesthood are two roots under the same tree. The civil service holds power, and the priesthood holds power.

In addition to the civil and clerical offices, there was also the Inquisition, which was directly under the administration of the Pope.

The escaped Templar knelt on one knee in front of the Archbishop and several deacons, and carefully told the story of his encounter with the black-robed people and the vampires. By the way, he brought the misunderstanding to the upper echelons of the church in Lasces Cathedral.

In order to send back the information, he deliberately took a long detour and came back a few days late for fear of being intercepted.

The wrinkled Archbishop Kenneth Queen Brown stroked his simple silver ring and muttered: "Those two men in black robes are very dangerous heretics with unfathomable strength. Notify the Inquisition and raise them to the red notice level." , immediately dispatched all the Templar Knights, with the Royal Capital as the center, and a search area within a hundred miles around, to look for clues about these two people."

Archbishop Lassese acted resolutely, stood up, and straightened his robes: "The red heretic has the destructive power to destroy the city and cannot be underestimated. Prepare the carriage. I am going to see the king. I need a city-wide search warrant. Send a priest to notify Lassei. Among the nobles of Sri Lanka, the targets of heresy are often powerful nobles, so let them be careful."

"Yes, Lord Archbishop."

…

Demari received a letter from his family in the luxurious library of the Royal Academy. After reading it carefully, he frowned and murmured to himself: "The red heretic appeared around Lassese City..."

He was a little panicked.

Daimari quickly packed up his things and returned to the family manor. He was not planning to return to the academy until the red heretics were eliminated by the church.

He still has a bright future and doesn't dare to take any risks.

…

After listening to the priest's notice, Caesar frowned and said after a long time: "The number of patrol guards in the manor has tripled. Send someone to ask for leave from the college."

Even though he is as arrogant and domineering as Caesar, he does not want to face the legendary red heretic who can massacre the city.

For a time, the entire Lassese aristocracy was undercurrent and frightened. The artists living on the edge of the aristocratic area strangely found that there were obviously fewer aristocrats on the streets.

In the civilian area in the eastern part of the royal capital, many civilians discovered that some small nobles who usually like to show off their power seemed to suddenly disappear and no longer appear.

All the upper-class nobles in Lascelles, whether they were marquis or baron, were all in panic and canceled most of their travel plans.

However, the initiator of all this stayed in Linches' manor and stared at the fishing rod every day.

"Do you think that if I put a straight hook, will King Lassese pull the chariot for me and ask me to be the national advisor?"

Nafi: "..."

"Oh, let's put the hook, Nafi. Today I want to show you what the East Asian Fisher King is!"

On the other side of the small lake, Paro received Ivo's signal and poured a dozen buckets of live fish into the water. The number of fish was so large that the water level of the small lake rose a little.
