Golden magic lamps hung from the dome, emitting a soft and holy light, and in the glorious magic circle below, chains of light bound the saint's body.

Alyssa was like a doll suspended by silk threads, hanging weakly in the air, her noble head drooping, three thousand silk hanging down her waist, her bright eyes half-open and half-closed, and tiredness and pain intertwined with her beautiful face.

"Your Highness." A waiter-like figure stepped forward, he nodded to the two guards of the magic array, the chains condensed by the holy light slowly relaxed, Alyssa's restraints were lifted, she slowly descended, and sat down on the delicate leather chair specially prepared for her, about to enjoy the Holy Communion specially prepared for her by the Holy See, this was her only respite.

Alyssa struggled to raise her eyelids, looked at the exquisite meal in front of her, and slowly picked up the knife and fork.

"Your Highness, do you remember what happened before you died?" The waiter also sat down in front of Alyssa.

Although he spoke very politely, there was no respect in his tone, and the waiter's falcon-like eyes were fixed on Alyssa, like the girl in front of her was a heretic waiting to be tortured.

"Forget."

Alyssa was cutting the steak with a knife, and she should be very skilled, but for some reason she couldn't cut it this time.

With a clang, Alyssa's knife came out of her hand, she looked at the waiter opposite with dissatisfaction, and asked with the anger in her heart, "May I ask if this is your courtesy to a royal family?" Let her eat a steak that is not yet cooked? ”

"Hmph."

The other party let out a sneer, shook his head meaningfully, and took the knife from Alyssa's hand and quickly and neatly cut the steak into small pieces, and served it all.

"This is the meal prepared by our best chef, both in terms of ingredients and heat, but it seems that you are already unable to enjoy it, Saintess, probably your body is almost at its limit." The waiter squinted at each other and said coldly.

He picked up the veal steak and slowly brought it to Alyssa's mouth, and smiled slightly: "Your Highness, why don't you try it?" ”

An ominous premonition spread in Alyssa's heart, and she slowly opened her mouth to bite the steak, but the taste of meat in her mouth was not as tender and refreshing as she imagined, but a little dry in addition to being slippery.

Alyssa's pupils shrank, as if she realized something, she reached out and slowly retracted her five fingers, and then slowly let go, looking at the stiff movement, Alyssa confirmed the guess in her heart.

Sure enough, the body is almost at its limit, but why? Obviously, it hasn't been long yet, and obviously he drank Felik's blood not long ago, why has it become like this now.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, your body has been seriously eroded by black magic, although we can get rid of this black magic, we are still exploring other possibilities to solve it, please don't be impatient." The waiter comforted.

As he spoke, he picked up the steak in front of Alyssa and put it into his mouth, bold and unspeakable.

"What are you doing?" Alyssa asked coldly.

The other let out a contemptuous laugh and replied loudly, "You can't taste it anyway, can you?" In this case, I am willing to do it for me. ”

Alyssa's hands trembled slightly on the table, and although she wanted to preserve her dignity, she knew that she was no longer a saint in the eyes of the Holy See, and that she was now nothing more than a person tainted by black magic, and that she was saved from the same punishment as heresy by virtue of the only remaining divinity in her body.

Three times five divided by two to solve the steak, the other party stood up and waved, and the guards on both sides removed the chairs and tables.

"Ahh Alyssa exclaimed.

The chains of light re-bound her body and lifted her high, the tightened chains suffocating her a little, and as the man below walked out without looking back, Alyssa lowered her head again.

She has always been well aware of the relationship between the Holy See and the Empire, and although the Empire is the nominal ruler of the country, the power of the Holy See should not be underestimated, and it has been the best banner since ancient times.

The relationship between religion and ruler is extremely complicated, although it is usually peaceful, but both sides have their own purposes, and the relationship between the empire and the Holy See after her own appearance is the best in history, because she is the favorite of the gods and the daughter of the king, but now she has lost her pure body, and even the holy body given by the gods, after being tainted by black magic, has become worthless.

The Holy See has always been like this, the God of Light is not unclean, and now that she is unclean, she is naturally not worthy of the name of the Key of God, if she guesses correctly, the Holy See covets her divinity that will not be eroded by black magic, this divinity obviously does not exist in the body but in the soul, and the Holy See is definitely thinking about how to strip its divinity from the soul.

"Why? Why is this the case for everyone? Alyssa muttered sadly.

In fact, she already knew that even if there were no demons, human beings were so dirty, even the Holy See was the same, doing cruel things in the name of God, everyone said that as long as the demons disappeared from the world, the world would become beautiful, but she didn't think so anymore.

"I think Her Royal Highness is so pitiful." A young guard below suddenly spoke: "Obviously so kind and has done so many good deeds, but now he is locked here. ”

The other young guard let out a sneer, looked at Alyssa with disdain, and retorted, "Where is the pity? She used to be a saint, but now she is not. Look at her, how can she look like a saint after being defiled by black magic, but this body, which used to be thought to be the work of God, now looks like it was born to seduce men, which is really disgusting. ”

"Hey, you tap!"

"Afraid of what? Didn't you see that she couldn't taste the taste just now, I guess I can't hear it now. ”

Alyssa listened to the discussion between the two below, and the corners of her mouth hooked, revealing a wry smile.

It turns out that I am not a holy queen, but such an annoying person, Alyssa thought sadly.

"Felik, will you come to my rescue? Will it? Alyssa muttered softly to herself in a voice that only she could hear......

It was a rudimentary makeshift camp, temporarily set up by the patrol, and Walter's own turf.

In one tent, Lance and Walter sat opposite each other.

"Lance, have you heard?"

"Well, the Holy Maiden seems to have been corrupted by black magic."

"Well, there's a very big piece of news beyond that." Walter looked serious: "Doyle hasn't come back since he left the imperial capital. ”

Lance was startled when he heard this, and suddenly understood what Walter meant.

"Chief, are you going to do it?"

"Yes, I originally planned to let the revolutionary army outside the royal city attack the town to attract Doyle to leave the imperial capital, but now that she has left on her own initiative, and the rumors of the defiled saint have made the people of the imperial capital panic and the situation is turbulent, Elbert is also depressed because of Alyssa's matter, and it is estimated that he can't even stop the resistance, and now is the right time for us to take action."

"You've decided?"

Walter folded her hands into a tower, her pupils flickering, and she silently calculated all the links in her heart, and after a while, she spoke again: "I have planned everything. ”

"Where's Felik's boy?" Lance asked, his gaze uncertain.

"Felik is up to you to deal with, he will never be your opponent with an artifact in hand, don't kill him, capture him alive."

Lance nodded, and asked, "What am I going to do after I get rid of Felik?" ”

"The Revolutionary Army will stop the Imperial Army, and after killing Felik, you will follow me into the royal city and kill Elbert!"
