A peerless killer possessing a cat girl assassin from another world

"You're back, Wu Yue. Where have you been so early in the morning? Have you had breakfast? If not..."

As soon as they returned to the tent, Beora began to nag.

"I've eaten, you guys eat..."

......

"I say, the vampires are looking for us, the guild is looking for us, and the gravekeeper is looking for us. Is it the church's turn next?"

Beorra handed the bowl to Sophia and said.

"What are you thinking? If the church can come to us for cooperation, then I might as well believe that they can reconcile with the demons..."

But Lulu curled her lips and denied Beorra's guess.

"Beora, do you believe in the Goddess of Light?" Sophia asked.

"...Can she bless me to make a lot of money?"

"No."

"So, I believe in Mercury. He can help me make a lot of money."

Mercury, the god of trade and eloquence.

I didn't expect Beorra to not believe in Hermes, the god of alchemy...

"That's right. So Wu Yue, what is your faith?"

"I?"

this problem......

I don't seem to have a specific god to believe in...

Even when I needed to pray, I would just repeat the prayers along with Sister Tiffany and the others.

In my heart, there is only "God", not some concrete concept...

So...

“I don’t seem to have any faith…”

"Well, so, Beorra, the church won't come to us at all."

"But Lulu is a demon. You and I are both heretics in their eyes. Wu Yue has no faith, so he is also a heretic..."

"Oh...Is that so? So we are lucky that they didn't cause us any trouble?"

"You can say that."

"What a pity! I thought I could get some money from the church..."

"Fool Beorra... do you want to listen to what you are saying? You want to take money from the church and not give up your life?"

"No, can't you?"

"It has always been the Church that gets money from others. How could it possibly let you... Let's put it this way. Even the major kingdoms on the continent have owed large sums of money to the Church for various reasons. Those old charlatans are the biggest creditors in the world."

Kelulu patted Beorra's shoulder and spoke earnestly.

"That's right. Take the Dorok Kingdom as an example. It has been a little better in the past five hundred years since its founding. Five hundred years ago, during the Shire Empire period, the royal family borrowed money from the church. However, the debt was not written off because of the division and destruction of the Shire Empire. Instead, it was evenly distributed between the Dorok Kingdom and the Sindrale Kingdom, and it has not been repaid yet..." said Sophia.

"Ah? This is too dark. Moreover, the Charles Empire is gone, so why do we have to share the debt?"

"All rights of interpretation belong to the church. There is nothing we can do about it."

"Aren't they afraid of retaliation for doing this? After all, these kingdoms are not soft persimmons..."

"These kingdoms are not soft, but the church is harder..." Ke Lulu took over the conversation.

"You know the Kingdom of Fajia, right? Most of the land of the former Fajia Empire is now called the Papal State of Marley. Guess why?"

"And why is the Norton Empire now divided into the southern countries?"

"The invisible hands of the church can easily disintegrate any powerful empire from within. This is the power of religion."

After Kelulu finished speaking, Sophia continued:

"It's not just invisible power. With the establishment of the Marley Papal State, the visible power of the church has also increased greatly. The predecessor of the Gravekeepers, the Secret Knights, and other organizations have emerged one after another under the church. They are enough to rival the military power of any country."

"Even during the time of the three great empires of mankind, they couldn't do anything to the Church, let alone the nine great kingdoms today?"

"While the church has an absolute advantage in politics, it also firmly holds the patent of Holy Light Magic. In most cases, only believers can learn Holy Light Magic, and Holy Light Magic is an indispensable force in the war with the demons... Therefore, for various reasons, the human kingdom will never dare to openly conflict with the church."

The repeated attacks from Lulu and Sophia made Beorra dizzy.

"Okay, okay, I understand. Anyway, the church is now the leader of human forces on the continent. I'm sorry, I will never dare to say bad things about the church again..."

"Don't blame Beorra. The Holy Light Church has been acting like a nobody for a long time. If it continues to expand like this, it will destroy itself sooner or later. It was just a small organization that benefited from the glory of the first generation of heroes. Tsk..."

But since Lulu is a demon and has no conflicts of interest with the church, she can be open and curse whenever she wants.

"So should I convert to the Goddess of Light? It sounds promising..."

"Hey... Is faith like clothes that can be changed whenever you want?"

It seems that Beora is actually a non-believer at heart...

......

"I'm full, I'm leaving now."

After breakfast, Kelulu picked up her staff and was about to leave the tent.

"Hey, where are you going again?"

"Let's go to Jegil Village. We left something there last time..."

"I'll go with you," said Sophia.

"What? Worried about me?"

"There are too many forces, and it's dangerous for one person."

"Yes, especially the church. After hearing what you said just now, I am also a little worried."

"Alright, alright, there's nothing to be afraid of. The church has no reputation in my eyes. It's worse than the gravekeepers... Besides, I have immunity. Just do your own thing. Don't worry about me. I'll be back tonight."

After saying that, Ke Lulu left the tent without looking back.

"But Lulu must be meeting someone."

After Lulu left, Sophia said.

"what?"

"I thought you guys figured it out."

"How can this be seen......"

"Who is Lulu going to meet?" I asked.

"The demons or the vampires, I don't know when they got in touch."

"If it's the vampires, it's easy to deal with. But Lulu should be there to discuss cooperation. But if it's the demons... things are getting more and more complicated."

"How to say?"

"Because if it is the demon clan, it proves that the vampire clan's actions this time were completely without the demon clan's permission. You know, the vampire clan depends on the demon clan for survival. Acting on their own and entering another country's territory... is very unusual."

"Furthermore, the vampires' unauthorized actions just illustrate certain issues and the unilateral importance of this dungeon to the vampires."

"You can think about it from their perspective. What kind of goal is worth the vampires hiding from the world and risking the future of the entire clan?"
