Chapter 25: The Invitation of the Church

In the silent city of Luan, the waters of Lake Valenia flowed silently across the pontoon bridge towards the Tedis Sea.

In the noisy port area of Lu'an during the day, a man in a white cloak is standing quietly on the roof of a warehouse.

"I've been waiting." Just as the man was about to sigh at the moon and the night scene, a cold voice interrupted his thoughts. The man known as the "Sword Emperor" appeared out of thin air, silently, "I shouldn't be late." ”

"Hehe, it's still so old-fashioned. Even if you eat a little, I won't punish you. Blublan smiled lightly, "There's no need to be so anxious. Tonight is in a great mood, so please let me revel in it for a moment. ”

"Let's make a report sooner......" Levi didn't want to get too entangled with the weirdos in front of him.

"I'm getting more and more interested in the princess. Moreover, I unexpectedly met a good opponent who was discussing aesthetics. The boy who cracked the "shadow crack" at the end is also very interesting...... Hehe, it looks like we're going to start getting busy in the future. ”

"Hey...... Although I don't object to personal interests, don't let it affect your work. "What else can the Sword Emperor who knows that these nominal colleagues of his own are all unruly and full of personality? Even the apostles and alliance leaders could not directly command the members of these societies.

"Don't worry." Blublan took out the black detractor that had already been put away and handed it to Levy, "The projection device failed at first, but then the success rate became higher and higher, and it basically stabilized at more than ninety percent. ”

"It seems that there is still an element of instability...... It's okay, I'll report it to the professor. Levi nodded.

"But when it comes to the Gospel...... This thing can not only promote the occurrence of the phenomenon of conductive cessation, but also has far surpassed the current technology. What is the purpose of the "Thirteen Workshops" to produce such a thing? Looking at Levi with an indifferent face, Blublan also raised his own questions.

"Who knows...... The Thirteen Workshops are not an organization under the name of the association, so even professors can't fully understand it. Levi shook his head indifferently, he just had to carry out the instructions from above, and he didn't care about these things at all, "But according to the professor...... These phenomena are only one end of the spectrum. ”

"Isn't that something that only a goddess can control?"

"Either way, as the experiment progresses, its true potential will slowly be revealed, in that case......" In the middle of his words, Lévy suddenly paused, his eyes sharp, pointing somewhere near the warehouse below. At the same time, his strangely shaped golden sword was also in his hand.

"Huh...... Looks like there's an uninvited visitor tonight...... So, how do you continue with the following plot? Blublan said with interest, and a peculiar short staff appeared in his hand.

"Then it's going to be a matter of how he behaves...... Well? Just as Levi was about to say something, he was keenly aware of something strange. It turned out to be a member of the Raven Gang, drunk, and staggered back to sleep at their so-called stronghold in the docklands.

"Hmph......" put away his weapon, Levi didn't want to make too much of a fuss, "I don't know what kind of rat he is, but he really picked up a life." ”

"He should be grateful to the goddess for her favor." Blublan put away his cane and deliberately bit the word goddess.

With a flash of light, the figures of the two disappeared into invisibility.

"Whew...... It's really life-saving to confront this kind of person......" Hidden behind the box, it was Kevin Graham who didn't dare to speak out at all, and he sighed while patting his pounding chest, "Are they the executors?" That kind of monster skill......"

"You're not bad." An abrupt voice sounded, which made Kevin's heart startle, "Although you pretend to be very weak, you actually have some special strength, right?" ”

“…… It's you? Looking at the teenager in front of him, Kevin looked shocked.

"It's me...... And I bought a lot of hard liquor for that bad bunch as a "thank you." Helliga stepped out of the shadows, "Well, did you a great favor, right?" ”

“…… What the hell are you ......" Kevin just wanted to ask, but suddenly he noticed something, and his eyes became fierce for a moment: "Do you- know?" ”

"Know what?" Heliga was stunned, he probably guessed that the other party might be on some church mission, but he never had time to talk—but was this nervousness a little too much?

“…… It's nothing. Shaking his head, Kevin gradually recovered from the shock, thinking to himself that he probably didn't know the "stigma" and his true identity, "How did you notice it?" And - what did you rely on to avoid everyone's perception just now? ”

"I don't know if I haven't dodged the perception of the Sword Emperor...... But even if he did, he probably judged that you were a bigger threat than me. Heiliga said nonchalantly, "As for how I did it myself—Invisibility-arts." With the wonderful runes in the boy's mouth, the boy's body gradually became transparent, but under the moonlight, the human form could still be faintly seen.

“…… I see...... "Kevin understood, although it was not completely invisible just now, it greatly eliminated his aura and presence. Unless you know that there is such an invisible person around you and deliberately look for it, it is very difficult to be discovered, "No wonder the chief attaches great importance to you." ”

"Chief?"

"You can understand it as the pinnacle of the force of our church...... It is also the existence that commands the combat power of the entire canonized province. "It is a well-known fact that the Church has a powerful Monk and Knights in the Codex Country, and there is no need to hide this, and Ain already has such a superficial position in addition to the head of the Star Cup, "One of my missions in Liber, in addition to investigating the movements of the association, is also to ask me to find you and convey to you the meaning of the chief. ”

"Oh?" Heliga is interested, and the head of the church knows about his existence?

"The Church of the Seven Dawns...... I hope to form an alliance with you. Kevin said solemnly, "It's not just because you've already waded too deep into the affairs of the association...... And even more so because of your hidden power. ”

"I don't see it. The church is very tolerant of forces that are not part of its own belief system. Whether it's the belief of the elves of the empire, or the totems of some ancient tribes......"

This is the philosophy of the Seven Yao Church...... Don't miss any opportunity to form an alliance. "Besides, the Empire already has an ancient mystical clan that is allied with the Church...... That person also has immense power and an important mission...... Of course, you don't have to make a decision right away. We have the patience to wait for your reply. Just look for me when the time comes. Remember, we can't let anyone know about the conversation between us...... At least until we reach a consensus. With that, Kevin turned and left.

"Miscalculated...... It was noticed...... Phew, fortunately, the real body was not revealed, and that guy was just deduced from clues...... And the ability to be abruptly invisible without relying on external objects at all...... No wonder the chief is interested in him......"

"Wait a minute, Mr. Kevin." Heiliga's voice sounded behind him, "Since they're all here...... Why don't we do it and exchange information? ”
