"Your daughter?"

Paul followed my gaze and saw that it was indeed Norn, the child born to him and Senis.

I seldom hug my daughter because my goal is to be a strict father, so I always avoid physical contact.

After all, Aisha and Rudy are both very smart children, only Nollen is relatively ordinary, and he also wants to be a dignified father.

But now that his daughter saw the father like this, he suddenly felt ashamed, but as a father, he had to remain resolute.

"Yes, Lord God, my daughter is already four years old."

Forget about showing your vulnerable side. All I want now is to find my missing family, even if that means committing a crime and becoming a slave.

"How cute! Anyway, I'll let those people help you find someone. After all, there are branches of the Church all over the continent." I looked away.

I don't have the bad taste to let her father make such an ugly face in front of a little child.

"Thank you, thank you so much!"

Paul knelt down and cried bitterly. This was the best news he had heard this year. If he had Xin Su's help, it would be much easier for him to find his family than it would have been for him.

It's even possible that his family is trapped somewhere, waiting for him to find them.

"No need. You guys have treated me to a few meals, too. I'm the kind of person who will repay a favor." After saying this, I stood up and walked to the corner.

He pulled a jar of candy out of his pocket and held it in his hand, motioning the other person to take it.

Norlen looked at her father. After all, she was only four years old and her father was the only one she could rely on. Paul also noticed it and nodded.

Only then did Noren hug the can of candy and smile at me.

I pinched Norn's chubby cheeks, walked over to Paul, bent over and took out a candy: "Drink less alcohol, although life is bitter, you must also remember this sweetness."

Putting the candy in Paul's hand, I patted Paul on the head and turned to leave the warehouse.

"Dad, who is that big sister?" Nolen trotted over to Paul holding the sugar jar.

"It's the goddess, Norn. You must respect this goddess from now on. She is the savior of our family."

Norn didn't understand much now, but she kept these words in mind. The main reason was that this big sister gave her a can of candy, and her father would not buy candy for himself.

Afterwards, I asked the Pope to help find Paul’s family and give the portrait to him to distribute to the bishops of the branch.

If you meet them, bring them back immediately. However, the villagers who were transferred here are a bit tricky. After all, liberating slaves is a crime, because slavery is legal in this world.

Moreover, the nobles of Milis will not let go of slaves easily. Although it is a headache, my reputation can still make those people hand them over obediently. I just need to pay the money to buy the slaves.

Paul had to pay for this kind of thing himself. As the head of a country, there was nothing wrong with being a miser.

After all, most of them were suddenly transferred away, and countless of them were left without money. Many sold themselves to nobles, and some were caught and sold by merchants.

No matter how prestigious one is, if one spends money, it means benefits. Who would be so kind as to send the money to others? Even if they were to hand it over, almost every noble had slaves.

It's a thankless job and I won't notice it. Even buying slaves in front of me will make those people feel that they have left a bad impression on me.

These days, because of these things, I have to start correcting reports, and it is common for me to not take a break for two or three days.

Intelligence agencies also cost money, and the transmission of intelligence back and forth, plus the transfer of personnel in Fitoya territory, is also a huge expense. Luo Qixi, who was called by me to serve in the finance department, is upset every day. The money is wasted, and the cost of a large number of intelligence personnel is quite huge.

Sometimes he would hug me and cry in private, drinking and complaining about how he didn't know how to manage the household chores.

Although the cost was high, Milis's good deeds were felt by many people and he earned himself a good reputation.

After more than ten days, I got some good news. In Winn Harbor in the Demon Continent, a team suspected to be Rudeus's [Dead End] appeared nearby.

Dead End is a race of the Speruds, and even the elderly can be frightened and cry.

According to the investigation of the branch bishop, the man who calls himself Dead End is a tall, white-skinned bald man who uses a gun as a weapon.

The trio are the guard dog Ruijerud, his owner Rujerud, and the mad dog Alice.

The rabid dog has red hair, the guard dog is very tall, the owner is a dwarf, and the three of them don't have a good reputation.

After reading the information handed to me by the Pope, I found Paul with a complicated look and handed the information to him.

To be honest, I really didn't expect that the Spelud himself, Rijerud, would show up in person.

What can I say? The boss said that this guy has been wandering around the Demon Continent. When he comes to the capital of Milis, I will invite him to come here for a visit. It can be regarded as a reward for treating me to the giant tortoise and showing the way.

Paul is also quite complicated. The red-haired girl named Alice is most likely the granddaughter of Sauros and also the cousin of Rudy.

"My son, are you treating me like a dog?"

"Maybe. I found your son, but I didn't find him during his subsequent trip. He may have gone out to sea or somewhere else. I haven't found any news about Lilia and Senis yet."

“This is very good news, thank you.”

"You're welcome, but I have one thing to remind you. It may be difficult to make plans for the affairs of Senis, Lilia, and Aisha. There is no branch of mine in the Sky Continent. If Rudeus really came back from the Demon Continent, I'm sure the three of them are not there."

I sat on the seat with my legs crossed, Benedict on my left hand and Noren on my right hand. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a pedophile.

Paul felt very heavy when he heard this. Either the three of them died, or they were teleported to the maze or became slaves in other people's homes.

The latter is a little unrealistic, because Senis and Lilia are also very strong. In my impression, Aisha was held by Lilia before being teleported.

Because of Xin Su's help, there were a lot of death reports from the beginning, and every time they received news of the death of acquaintances, they were lucky that Senis and the other two were not among them.

It is possible that it would take two or three years to go from the continent of Milis to other places, so the three of them might have been teleported to a very far place, and it would take some time to come back, so I still want to believe that they are still alive.

Paul smiled bitterly: "Maybe the three of them are going to a place far away."

"It's possible that even if the message is distributed and the intelligence is returned, it will take a long time to go back and forth."

After about two months, I was able to clearly confirm that the strange team was Rudeus.

Because I received news from the beastmen that the rainy season will come in two days, so the three people need to live in the big forest.

And because of the message I sent out, the three people were treated to good food and drink by the beastmen.

"Do you want to meet your apprentice?" I lowered my head and corrected the report submitted by Melusina, without moving my eyes at all.

"You don't want to continue changing this headache-inducing thing, right?"

Luo Qixi, who was sitting next to her, stuffed dessert into her mouth in small bites, and from time to time she looked at Xin Su, who was illuminated by the sunlight coming through the floor-to-ceiling window behind her.

This temperament that combines mystery and sacredness can really make people obsessed.

"Hey, I've been discovered."

"Okay, I'll go with you." Luo Qixi put the last piece of dessert into her mouth, feeling very good.

Xin Su said this actually for her sake. After all, she was her first disciple, so she was definitely worried.

After Xin Su handed over these messy reports to Elina Lijie, he immediately rushed towards the forest with Melusina, Lokisi and Benedict.

"Oh, by the way, the intelligence secretly said that the man named Ruijerud might be a member of the Spelrud tribe. Is Lokisi afraid?"

"W-what? Are you kidding? Well, that's impossible. If he is from the Spelud tribe, how can he ferry the boat?"

"That's true, but I did see the Spreed tribe decades ago, and that guy was indeed called Rijerd."

Luo Qixi staggered backward and slipped. If Xin Su hadn't pulled her back, she would have almost fallen off the top of the war dragon's head.

The Speluds, they are demons, the same demons that in all parents' stories will be eaten by the Speluds if they don't obey.

"Don't worry, that guy helped me." I helplessly hugged Luo Qixi in my arms and let her sit down.

"How did he help you?"

"Well, Atuo and I were new here, and he invited us to eat giant tortoise meat, and he also took us to find the nearest village. Hehe, the village he took us to at that time was your hometown."

I rubbed Luo Qixi's head and said with a smile.

"I see. Then what about Orsted?"

"That guy thought I was a bad guy and was going to beat me up, and then he really started fighting. Huhu, I guess you weren't scared at that time, were you?"

"No, I want to see such a cool battle again."

"Wait until there is a strong man in the future, and then I will let you see him." After saying this, I ruthlessly put Lokixi aside from my arms, picked up Benedict and put him in my arms.

I simply ignored the resentful looks from Roxy and Melyuchina. Are you kidding? This emotionless doll is my favorite toy. Even if it was Ellie, I would have to think twice.

The journey that would have taken a month or two only took a dozen minutes to reach the Great Forest. The place where Rudius, who was invited by the Beastmen, was staying was the Drudiya race.

From a distance, I could smell the smell of burning trees. When I looked up, I saw black smoke billowing out of the forest in front of me.

It was as if black smoke was rising up, covering the sky.

"Fire? How is that possible? It should be the rainy season in two days." With this doubt, I asked Zhanlong to speed up again.

The closer I got, the heavier my heart felt. The blazing flames were like a giant beast that devoured all life, showing a momentum that seemed to burn the entire forest to ashes.

"What's happening here?"

Luo Qixi was horrified. If the fire spread, how many people would die? Besides, fireworks were strictly prohibited in the forest.

"Maybe some idiot played with fire."

I took out the staff that I had never used before. The huge golden gem glowed a strange red under the reflection of the flames.

The bottom of the staff tapped lightly on the top of the war dragon's head. There was a crackling sound, like glass breaking, and white snowflakes suddenly fell from the sky that was originally filled with black smoke.

Although it was autumn, the scene below was instantly covered in white, as if the picture had changed in the blink of an eye, painting everything here with white dye.

"What kind of magic is this?" Loki looked at the heavy snow falling from the sky in shock.

"Absolute zero, but I mixed water and wind here, so the range is a bit larger," I said calmly.

This is British magic. This move consumed half of my magic power. I consumed half of my magic power and in return the whole forest was frozen.

If it rains, many people will probably die before the black clouds gather and the rain falls to the ground.

When I arrived in the sky, the Drudiyas were fighting with hundreds of humans. Although the ground was covered with snow, the battle was still going on.

I looked at the beasts buried in the snow, many of them were burned by fire or killed, and a surge of rage filled my heart.

"who is it--!"

A roar exploded from the sky, and the two parties that were originally fighting suddenly stopped what they were doing and looked up at the sky together.

I saw a golden war dragon hovering in the sky, and a figure standing on top of the dragon's head.

The people of the Drudiya tribe were delighted as they looked at the golden war dragon, while the group of humans opposite them had already begun to retreat.

"It's God, God has come to save us!"

"My Lord God! They kidnapped our children and killed many of our compatriots!"

Some of the beastmen burst into tears, while others stared at the human smugglers opposite them with bloodshot eyes. Their ferocious looks could be seen through the blood vessels on the foreheads of many beastmen warriors.

That group of humans were also wary and were vaguely planning to retreat.

As soon as he made a move, the person at the outermost edge felt a chilling murderous aura spreading around him. When he turned his head, what came into his sight was a dense crowd of thousands of humanoid weapons wearing white cloaks and masks.

"what--!"

As the screams of humans rang out, all the heretics took action, as if they were emotionless killing machines, and hundreds of humans from the smuggling organization were instantly crushed into minced meat.

Even if there are hundreds of them, clearing them out would only take the blink of an eye.

This kidnapping was a large-scale kidnapping planned by a smuggling organization, whose purpose was to kidnap the sacred beast of the Drudiya tribe.

The original smuggling organization wanted to use this plan as a cover to kidnap the women and children of the Orcs.

Because of the protection of the Milis Theocracy, the kidnapped victims did not exist at all, so this also made the orcs relax their vigilance.

However, due to the intervention of the Theocracy, they were unable to kidnap the orcs, so they could only burn the forest when the rainy season was approaching, and take the sacred beasts away when the other side was caught off guard. This way, the three-month rainy season would allow them to escape perfectly.

After listening to the confessions of more than a dozen smugglers presented by Juyes, I was silent for a long time.

"Haha, that's great. Asura Kingdom? You still want to sell it to the nobles. Do you want to start a war?"

Xin Su suddenly covered her face and laughed. Although the laugh was very pleasant to hear, everyone present only felt a chill spreading from the soles of their feet to their entire bodies.

They promised to protect the orcs, but dozens of Drudians died, and smuggling organizations were able to come from Zahn Harbor, even hundreds of smuggling gangs.

In the continent of Milis, someone actually dared to disobey my orders.

Xin Su is very angry now.

Yes, this was the angriest Xin Su had been in many years.

It’s not just because of the number of beastmen who died, but also because it was the first time someone dared to provoke Xin Su like this.
