[Western Fantasy] Cardinal's Life Goal

"Tees."

The call was so soft that it landed on Sears' heart like a feather gliding across the water.The envoy's hands trembled, and he seemed to clenched his fists calmly.

Sears wasn't surprised—he wasn't prepared for Delin, and even subconsciously hoped that the other party would find out... It was normal for Delin to recognize it, but the timing was wrong.When the identity of "Sears" has not been cleared, Delin's recognition of himself will only make things worse.

And the sense of trust gained with great difficulty as Tiss will not be left behind.

But there was nothing wrong with Delin's face. He didn't seem to care much about the weight of the truth he guessed, and he wasn't even afraid that Sears would kill him to cover up... He just clenched the handle of the knife and stepped forward. step.

The first man in black arrived in front of him, raised the blade in his hand, and hit Delin's face directly.Delin pursed his lips, and the sharp blade struck his face, making a shrill tearing sound when the metal collided.

They left with one blow, and then collided more fiercely.

The formation of the guards has also changed-they just hold three people back, and concentrate their firepower on another person.The man in black at the end of the line was already unable to do what he wanted, and after a while, the guard's long knife pierced his chest.

Delin didn't care about other people anymore. In fact, his strength now can only defeat a man in black head-on—unless he draws "his knife".

Seeing the young man waving the blade, Sears temporarily suppressed the uneasiness and irritability in his heart.He stretched out his hand and waved it, surrounded by golden light, Chemiye's breath swept over everyone's heart, only Delin was isolated from it.

Sears didn't want to disturb Delin, so he took Fang Du back a step.

Delin stepped forward again, this time he drew the knife very quickly, like a lightning strike, pierced the right hand of the man in black, and as the blood gushed out, the expression of the man in black changed.

To injure the hand that holds the knife is like to injure a wing of a bird in flight.

The battle situation gradually became clear, and Delin took another step closer, sending the blade into the opponent's stomach, and then blocked the head-on blow, easily pulling the opponent's intestines out.

Two bodies fell to the ground at the same time - the guards took out one again.

The situation is irreversible.Delin breathed a sigh of relief, his muscles were slightly sore after the fierce fight.And the remaining two people can be dealt with by the guards-generally speaking.

But they heard a scream.

It was the sound of the whistle made by the twigs of blue-spotted bamboo, hasty and murderous.Before Sears had time to react, the last two suddenly dropped the blades in their hands, and their bodies burst into golden light.

It was the light of the rioting divine spell—from a hole in their arm, it flowed out together with blood, filling the air with a disgusting stench.

Then the two lifeless shriveled corpses crashed to the ground.

The implication of the blue-patterned bamboo whistle is that there is no way out.

At the last moment when Bilu fell and struggled, the leader blew the whistle.He decided to kill that target with the burning lives of the six-member team tonight.

Two sharp long knives made of golden blood formed in mid-air. Sears' pupils shrank slightly, and then he pulled Delin's wrist with one hand, and swung out a piece of gold that almost pierced people's eyes with the other.

Two long knives came one after the other, the first one disappeared under the impact, and the other one was unscathed, and it flew towards everyone's gaze.

Sears wanted to protect Delin behind him, but the boy's feet were too steady, as if they were rooted in place.

Delrin smiled and drew his knife.

……

There were no terrifying visions, and the knife was ordinary, even old and simple.It looks heavy, thick and full of meaning, and it seems to be able to crush everything.

Delin raised his hand and made a very simple movement - swinging a knife.

The golden knife light came from afar. It was the product of divine art and should be invincible.But the blade that was incompatible with the surroundings did not tremble at all, and the person holding the knife was also very calm.In the boy's pupils, golden flames burned almost crazily.

"It's time." Delin said softly.

The black short knife collided with the golden knife shadow - Sears seemed to have a hole in his heart, and an uncontrollable sense of panic gushed out from the deep hole - but in fact, Delin's knife slipped through In the middle of the air, split the air, and then directly penetrated the knife shadow as if it touched nothing!

In the Holy See of Oswald, there is an artifact, which is a symbol of theocracy, and it is called the Anjaka Scepter.

But few people know that the body of the scepter is not something that everyone is familiar with, but a short knife.

The blade of Anjaka means judgment.No divine power can touch it, it is the abyss of divine power, devouring everything.

……

The golden halo gradually dissipated in the air, and the dagger had been sheathed, but everyone except Delin did not recover.

Just now, almost everyone thought it was a deadly situation.At that moment, their admiration for the Royal God's Envoy surfaced to a high level, because there are always very few guards who sacrifice their lives to protect the Lord.

But after the knife cut through the attack dullly, it all turned into fear again.

Delin didn't care. It should be said that what he cared about at this time was something else.The golden color in the young man's eyes had completely dissipated, and in Chemiye's territory, even the existence of golden flames did not dare to be too presumptuous.

Delin turned his head and looked at Sears, his eyes burst out with some kind of menacing persecution.

To sum it up in one sentence: Do you say it or not?

It's rare for Delin to harden himself in front of Sears - the envoy of the Royal God is too strong, and there are very few people who are not afraid of him.But today, when the teenager discovered a certain layer of truth...for example, when Sears and Tees seemed to be the same person, this fear was extinguished.

Unfortunately -- and with it came outrage at Sears for this sheer deceit.

This kind of anger is very inexplicable... The young man even understands that these are normal. Sears' identity has created many things, but some kind of feeling similar to grievance disturbed him.

Delin certainly knew why he was wronged.

But this is not something that can be said, especially if Sears is afraid of doing something.

The envoy has not recovered from the incident just now. Speaking of which, in the years of his rebirth, he has never been as disturbed as he is today.The combined age of the two worlds would allow him to run for the pope... But things like reason will always be broken.

Sears looked at the boy's eyes, struggled in silence for a moment, and finally made up his mind.

"Derlin." Sears looked into the angry eyes of the other party, and suddenly smiled: "Maybe, I have something to talk to you about."

Originally, he planned to take Delin away after the chaos, but the current situation... it should be more like this.Sears could feel that the boy was stiff and silent for a moment, and then followed.

The hall was still in chaos, and Fang Du was left behind by De Lin as an image representative.And he took Delin into the carriage, and a man among the guards who was not seriously injured consciously took over the position of the coachman.

Sears waved his hand to light up the floating lamp and incense burner in the carriage, only to remember that he seemed to have been defeated by someone's expectant eyes at the beginning of the party, and the coat was still lying in the cold room.So the God Envoy sent someone to inform Fang Du to bring some clothes along the way, so that he could have a chance to see De Lin's face.

The carriage started to drive staggeringly... The driver of the carriage was not professional, so the carriage did not want to be as comfortable as when it came.

"I have something to tell you." Sears sat down seriously, this time, his eyes were extremely sincere.

Delin just looked at him.

"Twenty years ago, it was one of the most intense moments of factional wars within the Holy See. In order to prevent further expansion of the power of Bran's lineage, the Three Lineage Alliance jointly made a contract among the four major families. That is People from the four major families had no choice but to participate in the election for positions within the Holy See.

"The power of the Bran family at that time was obvious to all. Almost three-tenths of the internal positions were occupied by the main branch and branches of the Bran family. The implementation of this agreement brought a crisis to the Bran family to a large extent. The power Benefits are not eternal, clansmen in low-level positions soon gradually lost power, and members attached to the family were also suppressed. The situation at that time had reached a very critical point due to the destruction of Sanmai's relentless efforts and no face.

"Some faithful, undiscovered members of Bran's line held a council of high-ranking personnel with the goal of raising a special cardinal. That winter, the wife of the new head of the Bran family gave birth to a The boy was unable to be born due to his frailty, and the Pope, out of pity, became the godfather of the child. At the same time, the family arranged a group of professional liars and paid them a lot of money to pretend to be civilians and adopt a baby."

Sears' voice paused for a moment, as if recalling something: "That's the high-level plan, very simple and very complicated - they need a child with dual identities. After training him as a bishop, the Bran family's original A situation where there is no need to worry about loyalty will return. Then an unexpected blow can knock down all those enemies.

"...The family has kept countless people from these things, including some subordinates who seem to be the most loyal. Delin, I didn't mean to lie to you."

The story ended here. A crumbling family used a particularly stupid but effective method to cultivate an "orphan angel".

The guy who was forced to be smart since he was a child is naturally Sears.

Delin's expression was a little erratic from the middle of the way. His temper has passed, but he didn't expect Sears to really tell him these damn secrets... This means that he has been completely tied to a boat .

And at this time, Sears didn't need to hide some of the feelings that Sears had been hiding all along, the kind of eyes that fell on the young man with a strong and expressive gaze, which was so hot that it almost burned a hole.

Delin hesitated for a moment: "...Actually, there is no need to tell me all this." I don't want to know either...

It is unknown whether these words were against his will afterward, but the boy is not yet stubborn enough to say such deadly words out of his mouth.

But the envoy was very calm, and after clearing his mind, he never showed the gaffe just now.He leaned back gracefully, and resumed his usual aggressive posture: "You should understand what I mean."

Delin thought to himself: Can I not understand?

But Sears' true identity also means one thing, about his road to revenge - they have a common enemy, a common goal.He can't even touch the shadow tail of Sicastler, but Sears, who has been given high hopes by the Bran family, is different.This is a very cost-effective cooperation, mutually beneficial and win-win, provided that the God Envoy has no other thoughts.

Delin decided to put this topic to rest. The hurried, urgent and even slightly annoyed gesture was probably because of the identity of "Tees"... well, some abnormalities.But he never intended to talk to Sears about it, so he talked about another business.

He starts with something similar to Sears: "On a winter night 18 years ago, at the time of the change of the Holy See. An Oswald powerholder who thought he had found the love of his life."

On a winter night 18 years ago, a man named Linde married a woman.

On the same day, the woman's father became the pope of Oswald's Holy See, and those delicate votes were directly overturned when the man who had been silent in the past spoke out.

In fact, many people, including Oswald's loyal followers, don't know what the names "Linde" and "Lin An" mean.This is the name bestowed by the Dragon God, and he is the ruler in the shadow of the Holy See.But what they control is only the noble theocracy, and they will not control anything that is contaminated with the world.

Lin An Linde is the inheritance name of a family, a ghost woman called Oswald, who is in charge of the dragon's heart and monitors those who hold the power of the gods.The other is called Mingzi, he holds the blade of Anjaka, and his duty is to judge.When they exist together, the legendary Anjaka scepter will be in the dragon's nest, protecting every believer.

The gods have been sleeping for many years, no one knows, and those judgments that belonged to the dragon gods have expired.In order to ensure the loyalty of the believers, Oswald gave a little bit of his own consciousness to the Lin family who had served the gods throughout the ages.That consciousness is a golden flame, and when it burns up, it's like a god descending into the world.

That man was Durin's father.

But the unfettered mind has thrown faith into the abyss.His wife Sicastle stole the dragon's heart, while Pope Goosen imprisoned the underworld girl Lin An.The Holy See of Oswald had an additional woman who was revered as a saint... and "Linde", who had been hiding in the dark, washed the dragon's nest bloody that night in anger, and was finally taken down by the just pope.

Delin was three years old at the time and could barely remember anything.According to the old people who came to see him secretly, he was driven out of the house full of gods by the adults that night and imprisoned in the library.

Delin didn't receive any education, he could only rely on the words that the old people secretly taught him, and read one boring book after another.The temperament that has not experienced any sharpening has only inherited the seriousness of his father. His elegance comes from the bone marrow, and then the knowledge of etiquette in books.

He always knew that he had a mission.That had been given from the day he was born, so he waited.

The Holy See cannot live without judges, and three years later, Pope Goosen finally understood.So the short knife that lost the dragon's heart returned to Delin, and he began to learn how to swing the knife and how to kill sinners.That's not fighting skills, it's just judgment.

People began to fear him, so Delin put on the black robe of Hades again, and was surrounded by the brilliance of hell flowers in the dark hall.Two years later, on that winter night, when everyone was cheering, he killed the previous "Linde" with his own hands.

On the second day, Delin stole Sicastler's secret black leather book, and then jumped into the sea to find a way to break the situation.

He came to a small town called Burke, and the woman who adopted him was called Charo.Delin, who was not very good at naming names, gave himself a new name and pronounced Linde in reverse, which happened to not conflict with the customary pronunciation of the Chemiye people.

Then he discovered Sikasler's future plan in the secret notebook, and the center of the target was a well-known city called the holy capital of Mengzhong.

The author has something to say: almost! ! ! !Confession! ! ! ! ! ! ! !Then you can! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Sears: I'm very happy that I finally don't have to be smart when I'm dating a wife (laughs)
