Chapter Forty-Eight: Shadows

Ulysses was drunk, quite badly drunk. He underestimated the enthusiasm of the girls at the branch of Radiant Academy. Although they wouldn't force him like Kanka, if they came one by one, even a very low-alcohol fruit cocktail would be enough to defeat him.

Kira grabbed the crumbling body of Ulysses and led him down the hallway back to the prince's room. At the last moment, if it weren't for her quick eyesight, Ulysses' male identity might have been exposed.

"You're so good, you should say no when you should say no, Ulysses. ”

"Hiccup...... Ah......" Ulysses, who was so drunk that he was almost speechless, saw that everything in front of him had become two.

If Kira hadn't supported him, I'm afraid he would have fallen to the ground long ago. When he was in Taji City, he didn't do it less and fell in the bar with Kanka. However, this time, he was replaced by passionate girls instead of orcs with bad intentions.

"Really. Kira pushed open the door to Ulysses' room and placed him on the couch in the hall.

The room is very clean, and there are no signs of use. If it weren't for the few thick books piled up on the table in front of the sofa, it would even give the illusion that no one lives here.

"Whew...... Huh...... "Ulysses, who had long been unable to support himself, fell asleep as soon as he lay down on the soft sofa. In terms of the amount of alcohol, he doesn't seem to be much better than he used to be.

"You're really defenseless, do you trust me so much?" Qira sat down next to Ulysses, looking down at his sleeping face.

It was a very peaceful sleeping face, and there was no distraction in sight. will sleep next to her like this, obviously trusting her very, very much, and not taking any precautions against her.

In other words, he completely regards her as his friend, so he trusts her 100%.

"Then, I will not live up to your trust, and I will protect you tonight. Kira, who knew Ulysses' secrets, took responsibility for protecting him, which was a reward for Ulysses' trust.

It's really nice to have friends who trust each other like this.

A hand gently ran over Ulysses' front hair, and Kira lowered her head and kissed him lightly on the forehead.

This is a blessing from the fairies, the guardians who hold the Staff of Chiba protect their friends.

This time, she will definitely protect the people around her, and she will never let a tragedy like her sister happen again.

............

There was a figure walking in deep darkness, and there was no light in the depths of the earth, but for this person, light was not necessary. He has become a part of the darkness and has gained the power to merge in the darkness.

Then he found the light in the deepest places, a light that was completely out of proportion to the darkness of the depths, incomparably dazzling, incomparably sacred, as if it were about to penetrate the earth.

"It's really not good, you were so embarrassed, what kind of enemy did you encounter?" Darwin, who was dressed in a black priest's robe, with his eyes closed, and the third demonic eye on his forehead emitting a strange purple light, looked at the collaborator surrounded by light, a witch from the Southern Church of the High God Cult.

"Hah...... Ha ...... "In the recent battle, Yuna's body was taken away, and the pure god witch was gasping for air, and the huge energy of light was constantly devouring her body, making her hands and feet appear abnormally golden.

It was a golden color filled with divine radiance, beyond the light of humanity, exactly the same color as the divine garments she used.

This is a testament to the high degree of recovery of the blood force in her body, a harbinger of the awakening of the immortal bird Finnicos. The legendary fantasy immortal bird has an endless life radiance and can burn its life with impunity.

But it was a light that would never be acceptable to a human body, and it was impossible for a human body to emit such light, even if she had the blood of the immortal Phinicos in her body.

After Ulysses took possession of her body, Phil had completely lost control of the power of the immortal bird Phinicos in her body, and the large amount of golden liquid she received from Ulysses turned into a burning catalyst, igniting her fire of life in one fell swoop.

The blazing flame of life awakened the immortal bird Phinicos sleeping in her body, and the will of the legendary fantasy immortal bird completely overwhelmed her, bursting out with unprecedented power and carrying her high into the air.

Her consciousness had almost completely vanished during that time, and she only remembered that she had flown into the air at an almost infinite height, a height where even the outlines of the continents were clearly visible. She didn't know what was going to happen next, and when she came to her senses, she was already in the deep underground place she had prepared for herself.

"Do you want my help?" Through his demonic eyes, Darwin could see that the power in Phil's body was very chaotic, and it had reached an extremely difficult level.

"It's just a little trouble, I'll fix it. Standing up very hard and putting on the magic ring that sealed her magic power, Fei'er's expression began to become calm. That's not much nostalgia for the world, only pure hatred and angry eyes.

Even if her body was insulted, even if her heart was trampled on, she still had to carry out her vow, the vow she made in that ancient city that no longer existed.

"Well, the plan continues, and the organization has recently had some clues about the secrets that the Ana family has hidden. It's hard to imagine that this ancient family of priests is actually connected to demons. When he said the news, Darwin's expression was also very strange.

One of the oldest families known on the mainland, dating back to the origin of the Supreme God Cult, and the Ana family, which can even be regarded as a part of the Supreme God Cult, actually hides clues to demons, which is something that even he can't understand.

"How could it be, how could they have something to do with the demons. Obviously, Phil didn't believe it either.

Even though she was born in the Southern Church, she knew a lot about the largest priest family in the north, and she didn't think that this family would have anything to do with demons.

This is an important part of the Church since the beginning of the Supreme God Cult, there have been several popes, cardinals have more than three digits, and the high priest is a family of countless great priests.

"I think there are a lot of doubts, but it's true. Darwin shrugged his shoulders, this is the truth that the organization has traced countless materials, dug up countless ancient tombs, and then deduced the truth from some clues from the origin of the Supreme God Cult.

As for which demon made the contract with the Ana family, who is almost the representative of the Cult of the Supreme God itself, it is still unclear.
