sweet conquest of the devil gl
Chapter 53 Cashing Out
"I didn't expect it to take so long." Floria walked out of the castle in Rock City, breathing in the fresh spring air after a long absence.
It had been many months since the last meeting with the mission failed terribly.The sky has long stopped snowing, and the friction between the two countries hastily ended, buried under the curtain of settlement after autumn.
Francis forced out a temporary armistice agreement, and the disputes among the lords were instantly covered by the surface of peace.
This is not to repair the torn skin, but to allow farmers everywhere to have enough time to plant in the spring, to ensure that as many people as possible can survive until the autumn harvest this year, and to guard against the menacing tide of magic.
Not everyone has dungeon cheats, but many people have brains.
"Miss, if you can remember that promise, the subordinates are very grateful."
This is Floria's territory, and today's "task" is also very special.
[Give Barbatos a reward and settle her wages called vacation. 】
"Last time you really opened your mouth like a lion." Floria blushed and walked a few steps quickly.
"If you don't raise your asking price, you won't agree to your vacation." Barbatos followed closely behind, holding a parasol to block the sun.
As soon as this was mentioned, Floria felt a little shy.At first, she thought what was going on, and she made that kind of request... Only after she refused did she realize that it was a trick to ask for a lot of money and pay back the money.
"Then you can rest by yourself! You just want to rest with me."
"The subordinate's highest priority is to ensure your safety."
From the time they stepped into the shopping street, the week-long holiday officially began.
"Where are you going?" Looking at the traffic on the road, Floria took a few steps back with a groan, and stood side by side with Barbatos.
"Where does Miss want to go?" Barbatos took Floria's hand.
"You choose, today is your vacation." Floria looked at the street, a little dazed.She governs here, but she is not familiar with it.Every time there is a purpose, come and go.
"How about going to church first? Today is a good day to pay homage to the Lord of Radiance."
Barbatos smiled sincerely, Floria raised her head, pinched her face with =A= expression: "Are you serious?"
Two devils, two devils, run fast... No, can't sing in your head.
Floria shook her head, shaking the chasing battle in the blue sky and white day out of her mind.
"Of course I'm serious. This subordinate wants to experiment with the latest disguise magic." Barbatos whispered in Floria's ear: "If it succeeds, the people in the church will treat the subordinate as a villain in the general sense."
"A villain in the general sense can't do much, let alone what to do if he fails?"
"Then His Highness can give you an order to burn your subordinates to death. Please rest assured, the flames will have no practical effect on your subordinates." Barbatos twirled his fingers in Floria's palm.
"It seems that you are very enlightened, so let's try it." Floria was not used to her hospitality when she came over, she walked forward a few steps, but was still caught, and her steps slowed down.
"Miss, pay attention to your safety when walking." The devil put his arms around her waist and shifted to the outside neatly.
"Don't treat me like a child, the car hit me, it's because the car is not safe."
Unlike the shops closer to the castle, all kinds of daily sundries are sold on the street separated by a road. Rice, flour, grain, oil, and sugar are all at the end of the shopping street.
There is a special corner for these necessities of life that do not require publicity and are very marketable.Most of the goods inside come from the dungeon system.
Most of the gold coins that Floria harvested were turned into supplies, used to support the never-satisfying bellies of adventurers and ordinary people, and warm their bodies and minds.
Only sufficient supply can reduce the panic caused by the magic tide.
"Are you Miss Floria... Your lord?" A small voice sounded from the side.
A girl carrying a basket is looking at Floria eagerly. The basket is full of flowers, stained with fresh morning dew.
"That's right." Floria put on a business smile.
"Lord, these are for you." The girl blushed and handed a basket of flowers to Floria.
"I'm the lord, how can I exploit the people." Floria sternly refused: "Besides, it's not convenient for me to hold so many flowers."
"These are nothing compared to what you've done, my lord!" The girl bowed gratefully, still holding the flower basket high: "Thanks to the nursery you run, my lord, I can come out and make money."
"No way, you have children at a young age... I remember that it is forbidden for minors to marry and have children here?!"
"No no no, they are my younger siblings." The girl quickly explained: "If there is no nursery, I really don't know what to do."
Floria knew what was going on as soon as she heard it. There are many similar things.
Whether the girl's parents are still alive or not, there are too many civilians who lack security in their lives.It only takes a little accident to make them homeless.
So Marianne's orphanage and several hostels were funded again by her, and a nursery was established.Specially take in children whose guardians are still alive but unable to take good care of them for various reasons.
While reducing child mortality, it also liberated a lot of labor and created more jobs.
"Please be sure to accept these flowers." The girl did not retreat because of the lord's silence.
"Barbatos, you pick two."
"Yes, ma'am."
Two bright roses are slowly pulled out by the devil, matching the bright red nail tone.
"May the light of our Lord surround you." Ian's eyes couldn't convey emotion, but the cookies on his tray could.
Crispy coarse grain biscuits, each about the size of a thumb, with very coarse particles.Originally, nuts and icing sugar should be sprinkled on top, but the material is limited, and there is only a little salty taste when chewed.
He was handing out cookies to the worshipers who had just attended the service.The local lords are exempted from part of the tax. Compared with other places, the Liuli City State is much better.
Soon the plate of biscuits was empty, and the believers did not rush to grab them, and left in an orderly manner.Ian put the plate into the hands of the knight behind him, and suddenly saw someone erecting a ladder by the wall.
After walking a few steps, I found that it was Miss Floria who was struggling to lie on the fence, and there were people dressed as housekeepers below to help hold the ladder.
"Miss Floria, what are you doing?" Ian hurried over. The fence was built with great difficulty by everyone, and it was covered with sharp things. It would be a bad thing to scratch the lord.
"It's Ian, I want to see what you guys are doing after enclosing such a large piece of land." Floria was a little curious. She had only designated a small church for them before, and she didn't know why they were so rich. Skill, but also to persuade the left and right sides to sell the house.
Maybe because of the location of the house, the price is very cheap?
"Please come down quickly, I can take you in to have a look!" Ian turned around in a hurry, Floria smiled shyly, let go of her hand and fell into Barbatos' arms.
Ian turned to Barbatos, stared at it for a while, and his expression became more and more serious: "Miss Floria, have you checked the background of this housekeeper?"
"She was originally a mercenary who licked blood with the tip of a knife, and saved my life." Floria briefly introduced, standing in front of Barbatos.
"Is that so, can you please enter the church alone. She is not a believer of our Lord, is she?" Ian looked at Barbatos warily, he could vaguely see blood.
There is no wronged soul, but the coldness in my heart hints that the person in front of me may be very bloodthirsty.
"Oh? Barbatos, you stay here and wait for me." Floria readily agreed. It would be too embarrassing for the devil to enter the church in a world where there is a true god, and it is best to keep a low profile.
Barbatos bowed respectfully, lifted it up and said to Floria's back: "Miss, don't forget where you are going later."
Eh, where are you going?Is there a reservation?
"Okay, you can arrange today's itinerary." Floria agreed casually. When she stepped into the church, she didn't know if it was due to psychological reasons, but she really felt a warm feeling.
Raising his head and looking straight ahead, the solemn face of the statue is covered in light.She cautiously approached with curiosity and respect for the true god, and stood outside the surrounding golden railings.
The Lord of Radiance is a neutral deity, with both female and male incarnations.The Lord of Radiance in this temple is the simplest version, neither holding a golden orb like a male incarnation, nor spreading gorgeous wings like a female incarnation.The hand hangs down naturally, and a golden light ball is inlaid in the very center.
"You didn't restore the statue. Generally speaking, don't you repair the church first, which is more conducive to missionary work?" Floria turned her head. She was not a believer and she didn't want to pray hypocritically.
Ian came to the statue, put his hands down piously, and then drew the upward cross before turning to Floria.
"Brilliant churches are indeed conducive to missionary work." Ian's expression was very calm: "But my lord has taught us that He only wants the world to be filled with brilliance, and there is no need to proclaim His name. Missionary work is just a means to protect people. Not the purpose."
"You really..."
Idealism?No, it should be said that such innocent and straightforward words are in line with Floria's concept.
The true God is great, God does not [need] human beings, even if no one praises Him, He still exists.The reason why the Church of the Lord of Glory wants to build a solemn church is to allow mankind to bathe in faith, gain a sense of happiness, and give mankind the motivation to do good.
True believers should lead others to do good in the name of the Lord of Radiance, instead of using His name to amass wealth and seize power.
That's why they were kicked out of Helmore by the more "secular" church.
Floria took out a gold coin and solemnly placed it in the donation box.
Following Ian's gesture just now, she roughly drew the upward cross and said it silently in her heart.
[May all the kind intelligent creatures in the world be safe and happy. ] As for the king?This king is a demon king, he will take care of himself, and does not need the gift of the gods.
Under the guidance of Ian, Floria hurriedly visited the newly expanded part, most of which were dormitory-like treatment rooms, and there was also a small exercise area for knights, nothing suspicious.
After walking out the door, his hands were held naturally, and Barbatos lowered his head: "Miss, shall we go to a place where we can relax?"
"Yes, but if you want to soak in the hot spring, you need to use magic." Teleporting to Crossel, there is still a hot spring to soak in.
"No, miss, that's where the subordinate wants to go." Barbatos straightened his waist and pointed to a place where pink decorations were hung.
"I'm kidding again, it's been closed for a long time!" Floria shook her head, since she became the lord, she immediately stopped this kind of business.Drain the people who do this to other industries.
"You misunderstood. Of course, my subordinates don't want to show you this kind of store, let alone it's closed."
"That is…"
"Please follow your subordinates and be careful where you step."

Originally, I didn’t have enough manuscripts to prepare for coogu, but when I saw that the collection of articles opened in the next column reached 50, I cheered up and wanted to try the activity of updating 3 words every day from March 1st to 5th!
But this time I can’t have a chapter of 9 words. It will be divided into three times a day, at 15 o’clock (18 o’clock or 12 o’clock in the afternoon before finishing typing), 21 o’clock, and [-] o’clock. A small chapter will be updated each time, adding up to [-] words.Because there is no manuscript, I may give up TWT at any time.
But even if it's googling, the update at 12 o'clock every day will not be interrupted, okay!
