"Strange phenomenon?" Jude reflected on his trip to church today, but found nothing suspicious, "You mean?"

"Can you feel some kind of ...... from the Holy Maiden," the bounty hunter struggled to find the right expression, "strange fluctuations?"

"Strange, fluctuating?" the boy struggled to recall Leia's current situation, still unable to understand what Nossa was referring to.

Seeing Jude's confused face, the bounty hunter sighed, "You are really still an apprentice. Then I'll get straight to the point. ”

"You may not feel the invisible pulse emanating from your little childhood sweetheart, the holy woman has an unimaginable amount of energy in her body. Nosa gave a rare look of seriousness, "To be exact, the divine energy is probably the power of the Holy Light. ”

"Huge amount of divine energy?" Jude had indeed never felt any energy fluctuations, "I mean, Leia is already a powerful priest of the Light?"

"As you mentioned earlier, you haven't seen each other for weeks. Do you think it is realistic for a girl who knew nothing about the Light to become a high-ranking priest of the Light in such a short period of time?"

She was called a gifted by Teacher Stanxiu, and she was still only an apprentice mage after half a year of study, so Leia wouldn't really become a great priest in a month, right?

Thinking so, the young man shook his head: "It's really unrealistic. So what's going on? What kind of title is a saint?"

"I don't know much about the Holy Light Sect either. Nossa drank the rest of the ale, "What follows some of my personal speculations. ”

"As far as I can see, the Holy Maiden has a very high position within the Church, walks with the archbishop, and is closely protected. And with such a huge amount of divine energy in her body, what do you think that means?"

Jude couldn't keep up with the bounty hunter's reasoning for a moment: "Uh...... What?"

"The Holy Maiden may be something like a 'container'. Perhaps the priests of the church will be able to get a mana supplement from her, similar to those magical items that can store mana. Nossa seemed to be doing some kind of deduction, and he then refuted his earlier argument, "But as far as I know, magic doesn't need to consume the caster's mana. ”

In other words, the saint is not a 'container' for energy storage. So?"

"So I'm more inclined to believe that the Holy Maiden may be some kind of existence as the 'ultimate weapon'. ”

This was the first time the boy had heard the term: "The ultimate weapon?"

"Imagine how powerful the effect would be if all the huge energy in the Holy Maiden's body were released in an instant?" the bounty hunter thought for a moment, "In my estimation, it would be enough to destroy a large army. However, the power of the Light is probably not used to harm others, but to deal with the necromancy. In other words, destroy an army of the undead. ”

"For example, Mordras's army of the undead," Jude suddenly understood, "so it seems that the church is well prepared?"

"It's very sufficient. Nossa nodded, "But, Jude, you probably won't be happy about that. ”

"Why?"

"The Holy Maiden was able to store such a large amount of energy probably because she had a rare special talent. The bounty hunter paused for a moment, then suddenly looked sideways at the boy, "However, if you release this energy instantly...... I think her body should be gone. ”

Jude couldn't believe it, "What did you say?"

-

The next morning, Nosa decides to continue his investigation into the city for clues about Modres' whereabouts, but Jude has no intention of accompanying him.

The words of the bounty hunter echoed in his ears last night: "I can roughly understand the idea of the Church: to sacrifice the Holy Maiden and rid the Northland of the scourge of Mordras. Of course, this is just some speculation on my own. ”

If Nosa's speculation is true, the boy will never accept it: where does the church have the right to sacrifice a living life without permission?

Besides, that's Leia, and Leia isn't a number.

Those godheads are definitely deceiving and controlling Leia, and must find a way to keep her away from the church. Jude is even more determined to save the girl.

The boy went to the Cathedral of the Windy District alone, and after showing his intentions, he managed to meet Leia in the saint's apartment.

Seeing that it was Jude, Leia whispered to the maid beside her, "Louise, go outside and rest." ”

Sitting down at the table at the girl's motion, Jude stared at Leia's calm face, not knowing how to speak for a moment.

"Leia......" the boy pondered the wording, "you...... Are you alright?"

"I'm fine, Jude. Leia nodded at him, smiling lightly as she had been yesterday.

Somehow, this kind smile made the teenager feel uncomfortable.

Lambertine ...... Everyone...... What's going on?"

"At that time I had followed Priest Emerschu to Ranrens. The girl spoke in a calm voice, as if it were a common thing, "The earthquake occurred in the middle of the night, may the Holy Light bless the people of Lambertine." ”

Unbelievable, Jude stared at the girl, "Didn't you go back to see it?"

"The church has many precepts," Leia shook her head slightly, "I ...... as a saint."

"Leia!Do you know?Lambertin is gone, everyone is gone!" Jude interrupted her, and pressed his hands on the girl's shoulders excitedly, "You didn't even go back to see it?

"Please don't do that, Jude. Leia gently pushed the young man's hand away, "The church has precepts. ”

Jude stared at the childhood sweetheart in front of him in astonishment, although his face was still familiar, but now the girl looked so strange in his eyes.

"Let's get out of here, Leia. The boy kept shaking his head, "Don't worry about these church things, let's go back to the West, okay?"

"I can't go. The girl's face remained calm, "The church needs me, and the necromancer Modres has plagued the inhabitants of the Northlands and must be punished." As a saint, I can't back down. ”

"Jude, do you know what Modress is asking of the lords?" added Leia before the teenager could respond.

He had asked the question, but the Marquis of Worensis was reluctant to answer, and Nossa said it must have been something beyond the lord's acceptance.

Jude reflected on yesterday's experience and looked at the girl suspiciously, "I don't know. Don't...... You know?"

"Yes. Leia paused, "Mordres' request is that the lord must arrest all members of the Church in Snowfall and put them at his disposal. ”

"What, that's the case?" Jude suddenly felt that things had become much easier, "Then let's get out of here and let the Marquis of Walency agree to his request, shall we?"

"How can you say that, Jude!" Leia looked angry at the boy's words, "As a saint of the Church, how can I live up to everyone's trust?"

"Trust?" Jude felt his thoughts a little confused, he took two deep breaths, and said loudly, "They're all lying to you! Leia, those magic sticks are using you as a weapon, and they're going to betray you!" you know what?"
