The young Gloryman opened his eyes, his gaze resting slightly on the hourly clock beside the bed.

Four twenty-two p.m.

Already...... Is this the point?

He sighed and sat up from the warm bed, his grim face without much expression.

Exhaustion is tangible.

No matter how much you cut it down, no matter how you weaken it, this is an extraordinary power involving the realm of time after all.

Amy was very tired.

But since you want to integrate into the collective, there are some things that you can't shirk.

Like what...... Celebration feast.

Therefore, after a short rest, the Glory Man had to get up from the fluffy bed, and after a little grooming, he bowed a handful of water and wiped away the traces of drowsiness from his face.

Then I went out neatly and refreshingly, and came to the promised place.

This is a single room in the restaurant, although the space inside is not large, but the decoration is very refreshing, including Regana, Neil, Aina, and everyone he is familiar with is basically there.

He was the last.

"I'm sorry," Amy Ulysses said, with a smile on her face, "to keep you waiting." ”

"It doesn't matter how long you wait," Kozmo said first, "and it's rare for us to get together, and we may not have the opportunity to get together again in the future." ”

The Glory One is silent.

He knew that what Kozmo said was the truth, since the training of the month had ended, then he and everyone else would end their short college career again, and after the assessment, they would go their separate ways according to their respective volunteers, although it was not that there was no chance to meet again, but I am afraid that there was almost no possibility of getting together.

In fact, that's why he attended this celebration banquet.

It can also be regarded as a casual meal for everyone to get acquainted.

It's just that everyone, including Hansen, tacitly didn't talk about this topic, but Amy Ulysses took over the conversation.

He smiled in a slightly heavy atmosphere, his eyes swept over the faces of his partners who had been born and died, and then said: "Actually, there is no need to care too much about this matter, we don't have the opportunity to meet again, let's talk about it, where is the intention of everyone to fill in?"

A rare playful tone that breaks the dullness.

"My word is the Guardian Brigade. Hansen pointed to himself, the Guardian Brigade, also known as the Praetorian Guard, is a unit stationed in modern Canaan, directly subordinate to the Pope's Hall, probably the most prominent among the twelve brigades of the Order, the one with the most actual power, and the most oil, "I think relatively simply, so I do some simple things, and when I am the escort of the big people, it is actually quite leisurely." ”

"My goal is the Congregation of the Faith. ”

Kozmo thought for a moment and replied - the Ministry of the Faith, also known as the Inquisition, has nothing to do with the Twelve Pro-Sword Brigade, but it is a special department that is also directly subordinate to the Pope Hall and is responsible only to the Pope, mainly responsible for the internal affairs of the Order, clearing out the infiltrators who have invaded the Order, as well as some corrupt and degenerate people in the abyss of power, so this department has a very bad reputation, and the sword-wielders working in it are often regarded as executioners, demons in human skin.

So, after answering, he gave an explanation in front of the surprised crowd.

"—I have something I want to investigate. ”

It makes sense.

As an internal department, the Ministry of the Faith has always been the highest priority for information, and every inquisitor, although there is no real rank, has a high status, status and authority, if you really plan to investigate something, joining the Inquisition is undoubtedly a very appropriate choice.

"I'm going to join the Academy," Aina hesitated for a moment before giving her an answer, taking the baton from Kozmo.

"Don't you want to stay in Canaan?" Rigana asked, glancing at Hansen.

"No," the dark-skinned girl replied in the affirmative, with a gentle but firm smile on her face, "In my hometown, I also have some things that must be dealt with - besides, the department we are in is not necessarily constant, according to the system, we expatriates must return to Canaan once a year to report on our work, and we will have the opportunity to meet in the future." ”

Hansen also nodded on the sidelines: "I support Aina's decision. ”

"You two will settle your own business," the Glory One said, half-teasingly, before looking at the blonde girl beside him, "Regana, what about you?"

"The Equipment R&D Department," Regana replied cheerfully, "It's also a personal hobby, I've been fond of steam machinery since I was a child, and it's a good idea to join the Equipment Department." ”

"Good," Amy moved her gaze to the last person, "Neil, what about you?"

"Me?" the girl pointed to herself, and then smiled, "Actually, I'm different from everyone else, I'm here to find someone, so I want to fill in the Cardinal's Chair." ”

The College of Cardinals is the functional department of the Order to deal with daily affairs, and there is not much demand for sword bearers, but not having too much demand does not mean that there is none, and two or three people are still selected from the freshman sword bearers every year, as the executive officer of some difficult affairs, although the power is not small, but not only the burden on his shoulders is heavy, but the danger is not small at all, and it is not a good position in horizontal comparison.

"Looking for someone?" Aina suddenly asked, "Is that your sister?"

The girls apparently had their own circles of conversation, at least Neil's sister, whom the Glory Glory had never heard.

"Well," the silver-haired girl nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "My sister and I have been dependent on each other since we were seven years old, and by the time I was ten years old, my sister had awakened her abilities. ”

"Wait, Awakening Ability—" Kozmo asked, "Are you the Glory?"

"No, although our parents died very young, I am sure that they did not have a surname behind their name, nor did they have supernatural powers. "So, they didn't survive, they died under the punches and kicks of a bunch of drunks. ”

"Sorry......"

"There's no need to be sorry," she said, bowing deeply to everyone, "I'm the one who should say I'm sorry—very presumptuous, if there's any news of my sister, please let me know." ”

"Your sister ......" Amy Ulysses was slightly silent, although he was still quite skeptical of Neil's claim about her sister's awakening ability, but now was clearly not the time to delve into this, "her physical features? where might she be now?" I think everyone would be willing to help, but we need more details. ”

"My sister and I are twins, her name is Sharon, and when I was a child, she was almost carved out of the same mold as me, but I was slightly taller than her, and my personality and appearance were a little stronger. Neil paused for a moment, "As for where she is, I'm pretty sure she's in the Order—though I don't know why she didn't meet with me, but ...... She must have been in the Order, she must have been in the Order—the Bishop who had accepted her request, the Lord who had sent me to the Seminary, had told me. ”

"So, you're here?" Rigana raised an eyebrow, "Didn't you inquire about this with the other sword-wielders or the Great Sword-wielders?"

"I've visited Lord Wyman and asked Master Cassius for advice, but their answer is that they don't know. Although it was only for a moment, the silver-haired girl gave a rare look of frustration, "They haven't heard of the name Sharon, and they haven't seen anyone who looks like me. ”

"Trouble. ”

The Glory One said that the Order's sphere of influence spanned most of the Order's territory, and it would not be easy to find someone among them—but the real trouble was that she ...... It wasn't necessarily true that he had joined the Order as Neil had wishfully believed.

The Order, although on the same side of order as the Glorious One, and in some respects more pure, is also quite a few corrupt and degenerate among them, and even if the bishop in Neil's mouth really sent her to the present Canaan, she might be stopped by someone who used her power to take advantage of her position, and then take it into her pocket.

After all...... A glorious female (crab) slave is priceless in the market.

"yes, it's a hassle. ”

The others apparently did not understand what his so-called troubles were, and they were in the Order, having been receiving the education and training provided by the Order, and they were clearly unaware of the darkness that must exist within.

Amy sighed and didn't join the conversation.

Because—

There is no need.

Unlike themselves, they came out of the Order's training system, and they were the true "own people" of the sword-wielders, and no matter how rampant the dark side of the Order was, it could not affect them, and it could not affect this group of upstarts of the Order who had gradually begun to move towards transcendence.

There is no need to make them suspicious of the Order, it will do them more harm than good.

But he was somewhat caught off guard, and after discussing Neil's question, the spearhead was turned to him-

"Judas," Rigana asked, "what are your plans?"

"Like Kozmo," Amy replied in a soothing voice, pondering what kind of reason to make up for the past, "it's the Ministry of Faith." ”

"The Inquisition?" Aina raised an eyebrow, "why do you want to go there?" ”

"Actually, there is. "You all know my hometown of Hemtika, it's almost - almost destroyed by the Chaos Sect......

He paused.

"So, I want to catch their fox tails. ”

Sect of Chaos.

This name is not unfamiliar to everyone here, and although there has never been a large-scale conflict on the surface, the Chaos Sect has always been on the Order's blacklist, and is regarded as a mortal enemy above the demons and the deepest night.

Because, its infiltration of the Order has never stopped.

The establishment of the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith, and the gradual emergence of a deformed monster above all departments within the Order, contributed to the operation of the Chaos Sect behind the scenes—it was precisely because of its activity that successive popes paid more and more attention to the construction of purity within the Order, and continued to increase their support for the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith, so that after hundreds of years, the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith, or the Inquisition, became a beast that even the Pope could not control and control.

If you want to find clues to the Chaos Sect, joining the Congregation of the Faith is indeed the best choice.

"Very understanding," Neil nodded, a big smile on his face, "but Judas...... At this rate, you might indeed become the great demon of the sword-wielders. ”

"Great Demon King......" Hansen's reaction was always slow, "What do you mean?"

"Infamy," Amy shrugged, he didn't really care much about fame, which had little to do with him, "now that my notoriety is already far and wide, and if you join the equally notorious Inquisition, add or multiply the two, and sooner or later everyone will turn away from me." ”

"Alternate aura effects," Kozmo said jokingly, "maybe the little ones will be terrified for a while when you teach the new sword wielders to Judas—a living legend, after all." ”

"Thinking too much. The Glory One said with a blank face.

"It's that you think too little," said Regana, "you have less contact with the others, and I don't know what they think of you—basically the brave men of the knights, the demon kings, after this battle, what do you think they have given you?"

Titles, the Glory, as rulers, are not very particular about this, but the sword-wielders are different, they are the organs dedicated to fighting, and their strength is the foundation of their existence. Within the Order, titles are often used as a symbol of the strong, such as Garcia the Decapitator, Cassius the Weaver, Wyman the Veteran, Mia the Wind Whisperer, etc.

Amy knew for the first time that he also had a title.

Although it is not recognized by the Order itself, being able to have a common name is also a proof of strength.

Frankly, he was not without joy in his heart.

Just listening to Regana's tone, his title seems to be a bit problematic?So, calming down, Amy asked, "What nickname?"

"Nine kills in an instant. ”

"Sounds stupid," the Gloryer spt, undisguised his displeasure, "how the hell did they come up with such a stupid name?"

"Probably no one understands how you knocked the Webster Nine to the ground in an instant. Kozmo pointed out the truth behind the title, "Don't say it's them, it's us, it's us, even those of us who have followed you all the way to the Demon King Mammon, and we don't realize what happened at that time. ”

"That," Amy Ulysses didn't intend to hide the existence of the speeding state, or he originally planned to make this ability public, as a stepping stone to join the Ministry of Faith and Doctrine, "It's my ability - to be able to burst out in an instant beyond the limit of normal people's perception, I named it the speeding state, although the power cannot be underestimated, but the sequelae are relatively large, I basically only dare to use it when I win or lose." ”

"Speaking of which," Hansen scratched his head, "it's true that sometimes I see you take out the enemy all of a sudden—but I didn't think about it at the time, simply because I was wrong." ”

"Speaking of which, I have the impression as well. Aina nodded, "But at that time, just living was hard enough, and I didn't have that time to think about it." ”

"Yes......" Kozmo nodded, then raised his glass, "Thank you, the All-Knowing and Almighty, for bringing us together to toast our friendship." ”

"Cheers!"

The glasses of fruit wine and drink collided, and the lights reflected in the brilliant booze in a variety of colors—the young gloryman was dazzled, and rarely let go of the taut string in his heart, and immersed himself in the somewhat unreal colors of this joy.

How he wished that time would stop and stay forever in this quiet dream.

But he knew.

This can't be done—

He has a mission that must be achieved, and he must not stop until he achieves it.

It's just that...... What is that mission?

Consciousness came to an abrupt end.

Confused thoughts engulf everything, and Amy Ulysses is drunk with the charm of alcohol.

And then......

In the silent silence, darkness descended.
