14 Just this one word

It seemed that Father Constantine and Louise had a pleasant conversation, and when Zach pushed open the basement door, Louise was smiling and reading an excerpt from his notebook, "'Cursed is cursed to do evil, but cursed with innocence will be punished...... When I was a child, I was punished for copying these words, and I could never have imagined that these are such a great comfort to me now. ”

The meaning of this excerpt is very simple, when you want to curse others, please think about whether the cursed person is really evil, if so, you curse, the Holy Lord will help you book a room for him in hell. If not, you curse, the Lord will feel that you are abusing your faith and unhappy, and will book a room for you in hell.

Konstantin said that this excerpt is the content of self-love, so this is not to teach people how to use faith correctly to curse others, but to teach people to distinguish between good and evil, and not to create their own hell with their own hands.

Zach smiled and walked into the basement, "Thank you." ”

This is not abrupt, Zach mentioned last time he talked about Louise in the church, the priest was the only one who showed kindness to Louise's transformation into a vampire, and the implication was clear, some people expressed malice, such as James.

Louise said that the comfort also means this, someone does not argue right and wrong, the unlucky other party, just don't be maliciously influenced.

Father Constantine smiled and waved his hand, indicating that it was not necessary, "Why did you come down, did Taylor and Colonel Ike finish talking?" As he spoke, Constantine stood up, apparently preparing to go up, "Hehe, then I should take her back to church." ”

"There's no hurry. Zach laughed, "Upper, yes." There was a little 'accident'. ”

Louise, of course, heard the above things, smiled and gestured back consciously, giving up the priest to Zack, and went back to the corner to continue reading the notes.

"What's wrong?" Konstantin looked puzzled, then frowned, "Is Taylor going to do anything to Colonel Ike?"

"It's not. She hadn't had time to talk to Ike yet. "First of all, dispel the doubts of Konstantin bias," it was Kyle who came. Zach chuckled his head, "Lola is here too, and Barton's two siblings are talking to Taylor in the back porch right now." ”

"Oh. Konstantin's expression changed to helplessness, "The conversation must not be very pleasant, right?" Shaking his head, "The relationship between the Barton family and the college and the church is very stiff right now, and I heard Taylor say that none of Kyle's family supports him to continue his development in the religious college and church, including his sister Lola. ”

Zach kept smiling. Or even more, "Father Priest is wrong." They are very harmonious. ”

Konstantin subconsciously raised his eyebrows and made a crossbow, "Really?"

"Really. Zach shrugged, no need to continue hanging on the priest's curiosity, "Kyle interrupted his studies at religious college and returned to Reipt High School to retake his senior year. Then, Saint Sisi also went to Reipt, just starting school. ”

Konstantin was stunned for a moment. When he came back to his senses, he made a cross again, and the expression on his face was a little complicated. "I should have thought of it. Ay. Glancing at Zach, "I should have thought of it last night when the Saints came to visit the church. The angels have returned, and the saints are about to get into action. ”

Zach raised an eyebrow, "Did Sissi go to church yesterday?" It seems that in addition to coming to Grande, the Saints' family was also quite busy yesterday.

"yes. Konstantin sat back and said the next words. "Very late, when the angel Camille appeared, he frightened a group of resting demons (Crowley's strict schedule) and calmed me for a long time. He waved his hand and looked at Zach helplessly. "You don't care about that, you want to know what they do in church. ”

Zach didn't deny it, "I can only guess that it must not be very pleasant." ”

"Yes, it's unpleasant. Konstantin sighed again and looked at Zach, "You know the real reason why Taylor will come to Barton to represent the Religious College of the West and work with the fallen angel Crowley." ”

Of course I know, it's still the line that Zach signed, but we don't need Zach to say it here, we all know the part about Zach very well. It's up to Konstantin to provide the perspective of the other side.

"In fact, the attitude of the Western Demon Feast towards demons is the same as your attitude towards Crowley, because the gates of hell are opened, they cannot be completely expelled, they can only be allowed to exist in the west. In order to avoid war in the west under his rule, the Demon Banquet can only determine the agreement of 'mutual non-interference', and then secretly support the Academy, cultivate demon hunters, and find the reason why the upper echelons of the Holy Lord Faith left the Federation, of course, the ultimate goal is to expel the demons. Konstantin glanced at Zack, "The Devil's Feast doesn't like demons in their own land. ”

Zach nodded, and it was obvious that Zach liked Crowley?

Then, the perspective is connected to what we know, "because of Kyle, plus later Seth and Mason." At the mention of Seth, Konstantin's face was still sad in an instant, "Let the Western Academy discover that in the easternmost city of the Federation, there are people (Grande, Zack) who have established a fairly peaceful relationship with the fallen angels who are opposed to the demons." Konstantin shook his head, "Although they are all demons, 'fallen, angel'." Ay. A sigh and continued, "The Academy, which has been cornered by demons in the West, can only try this clue, so Taylor takes Kyle back to Barton. ”

The enemy of the enemy is the friend, and the Western Academy upholds this purpose, and the relationship it has established with the fallen angel Crowley.

"So far, this cooperation has been very pleasant. Konstantin showed a thoughtful expression, "Aside from the Republic's trip to seek answers, the Fallen Angel has provided a lot of information about Hell to the Western Academy, and my research on the Demon Soul Mark has also enhanced the Western Academy's combat effectiveness surrounded by demons, giving them breathing space. ”

"I have a feeling that a 'but' is about to appear. Zach raised an eyebrow.

"But. Konstantin smiled and glanced at Zach, thanking for the small relief of the atmosphere, "After returning from the trip to the Republic, the fallen angel Crowley passed on some less-than-ideal information. "Stop here.

Zach tilted his head, realizing the significance of the breakpoint, "Do I need to understand?"

"'Paradise', without 'leaving' the Federation. Konstantin gave a direct answer, pointing upward, "Only." 'Someone', left. Shaking his head, "It's not leaving, it's disappearing." ”

Before Zach could properly react to this sentence, Konstantin had already withdrawn his hand and continued. "The Holy Lord and the Archangel Michael are gone. The angels of heaven did the only thing they could think of, and it is also a fact that is repeated in the history of the Lord's faith - that the Lord has expanded the territory of the faith. That's why the angels went to the Republic, but before they could look for it, Papa landed in the Republic at midnight and trapped them. ”

Zach didn't have time to react to this, so he could only grasp the last sentence, "Trapped?"

Konstantin shook his head, "Don't ask me, I can't figure out the reason even if I think about it." But I know the result - angels who have no faith in the republic. They have to compete with the local aliens in the republic for faith resources, otherwise they can only wait in the republic for the faith to run out and die. By the way, the alien races in the republic have also lost their faith support. Konstantin shook his head, as if he didn't quite understand why, "It seems to have something to do with republican politics......"

Ink.

“...... The only ...... that keeps the republic in balance a little bit right now," Konstantin looked at Zach, "is the Hidden Alliance. ”

Zach frowned, as far as he knew, the Covert Alliance was the first to go to the Republic. Then heaven disappears and the gates of hell open. The demon came to the present world, and "I ......" Zach was hesitating to ask about the situation of the Hidden Alliance. We should be able to understand this hesitation, and Zach has decided to ignore it a long time ago.

Konstantin waved his hand again, "Don't ask, I don't know if I ask." The intel that Crowley brought back contained little to no hidden part of the alliance's status. As you should have thought, among the people who went to the Republic, Sbella looked for Papa Midnight, the saints looked for the angels, and you have the Transfiguration Gold here, representing the local alien race of the Republic. No one represents the Hidden Alliance. Crowley has tried to remain as neutral as possible, and the news she has received has been generated from all three parties. Konstantin still paused, "Of course, that's all she needs to convey to Taylor, and I don't know if she has hidden it." ”

Zach pursed his lips and accepted the statement, but he also knew that Crowley must have other information on his hands. I just want to wait for Zach to ask in person, you know, the first rule of negotiation, let someone else be the one who asks the question.

Konstantin took a deep breath, "That's the premise, and then, it's yesterday's visit of the saints." Shaking his head, he was helpless, "I'm glad I met an angel in my fellow saints, Camille, but Saint Sisi pushed me and Taylor into a very difficult position. ”

She ......," Zach had already thought of, "demanding." "I ask you to get rid of the fallen angel and assist her with all your might." ”

"Yes. Konstantin still gave Zach a smile, "And the saint's reason is still very strong, she has an angel, and she bluntly said that even the process of allowing Camille to return to the Federation alone is very ......"

Well, do you need an explanation - poor Mr. Fury Waves, who forcibly used Papa's midnight witchcraft, had just been taken away by John

“...... Now she urgently needs the cooperation of all the powers, and what she has to do is to refill the heavens, cultivate the angels, press back the demons, and close the gates of hell. ”

Zach raised his eyebrows, "Actually, isn't it looking for the whereabouts of the Holy Lord and the Archangel?"

Konstantin smiled awkwardly, both for himself and for the saint Sissi, "There are no manpower." "Yes, the angel of the Federation, Camille is the only one now.

Zach nodded understandingly, "Uh...... It is precisely because of the lack of manpower that getting rid of Crowley now and helping the Saints does not help the situation of Western College at all. ”

Bewilderment.

Konstantin nodded, his eyes a little glazed, "yes, you know, the most important reason I helped Crowley and Taylor was Seth. My philosophy is that if a person believes in a faith that is higher than his own, he should not influence his faith with his own desires. Silently shook his head, "Since I have chosen the Holy Lord faith, I believe that the Holy Lord has his own arrangements, and it should not be me who should influence, I am not the Holy Lord, just a human being." ”

Yes, just as Konstantin thinks that the demon hunter should not judge the demon by his own will, it is the judgment of the Holy Lord, and no one should cross the line.

His eyes refocused and he looked at Zach, "I can't say I approve of Saint Sissi's idea, but I can't agree with it either. Taylor, she was more practical, as you said, directly informing the Saints about the current plan would not help the West, and the disappearance of the Holy Lord made the Demon Feast not know how to proceed. Help, you can, but don't expect that when the saint has the capital to generate mutually beneficial value, she will automatically contribute help, and now, this dark line of the Demon Feast cares more about the help that Crowley can give, at least when the Holy Lord reappears, there are still religious colleges in the western land that can be patronized by the Holy Lord. ”

Nor can Zach say whether he was happy or sympathetic to hear that the Saints had been rejected, but the results had already come and the Saints had to show themselves - she went to Reipter.

"That's pretty much it. Konstantin stood up again and gave Zach a helpless look, "Let's go up." I guess Kyle is here to deliver the news of Saint Sissi's enrollment, and this kid knows something, maybe something will change. ”

Zach didn't think so, but he had just said that Kyle, Lola, and Taylor had a great time chatting on it, and you probably don't know what the pleasure is, and you don't know how long the pleasure will last, and it's time to go up.

Out of the basement and up the stairs. The conversation in the back porch has begun to make its way into the stairwell.

“...... Is Jehir so famous in the Federation?" Lola said curiously, even wistfully, "I thought Mrs. Quinn was the representative of charity, and sure enough, there are many other ...... besides Barton."

"It's not famous. Kyle said impatiently, "Have you listened carefully? It was Jehir who financed it, but the fame was with the church, not with the Jehir house. ”

Lola's impatient voice, "I heard it! I know how much I know! I didn't know it until I went to the west for a while!

Taylor's helpless voice, "Don't make any noise, I ......"

Lola regained her wistful voice, "No wonder that Sissi is cool." "I'm talking about confrontation with the cheerleader, hey, oh no, Lola seems to like Sissi. This speechless girl, the understanding of cool is really hopeless, remember, she also thinks Alice is cool not to go to school, "So amazing! It seems that I have to accept her club application......"

"What's awesome!" Kyle was aggravated by his irritability, "Have you listened!Church, church, church!" Is it important to say something three times?"How can you let her join that public welfare club?!! My family is not allowed to have anything to do with the church, are you allowed to have it?!Do you want to take her with you in future public welfare activities?Can you take her?!Do you want to be told that our family controls the church and creates ......?"

Kyle needless to say, Lola blinked with a glaring eye, "Oops." What to do. ”

Kyle's face gloomy turned to the thinking Taylor and the priest who had just walked out, Father Constantine, "Holy ......... Sissi is your problem! Take care of her! Don't let her bother my sister!"

Look, the pleasure is gone. Kyle wants to find Taylor and Father Priest for this one. (To be continued.) )
