As soon as the White Maiden left, Ivus went to the Eleventh Ring, ready to apologize for the Night Fiend's recklessness and try to undo the effects.

But even if Ivus rushed over at the first time, he still didn't catch up at all.

"Or ...... It's a step too late. ”

Ivus muttered.

It's not like someone has an accident.

— but everyone is healed.

Everyone looked as usual, and it was impossible to tell who had been hurt.

But it seems that because the Pure White Holy Maiden had mentioned this matter before, the elven priests immediately understood the intention of Ivus, and they took the initiative to gather.

Everyone was very gentle—no one embarrassed Ivus, and even many of the elves smiled and comforted Ivus, showing off their already white skin. Although there are also quite a few spirits of controlled fire inside, they are also very good.

In the face of Loki's death, at least for the elves of the Eleventh Ring, who were affected by Ivas, no one tried to hold him accountable.

On the contrary, there are some members of the Controlled Fire who are very guilty and want to apologize for Loki's attack on Aihuath...... Although this matter has nothing to do with them at all.

Their purpose was to clear the reputation of the Controlled Fire - or, to put it more specifically, to cut ties with Loki.

As a result, the condolence gifts that Ivas had prepared earlier were not sent out at all, but received another batch of gifts.

Basically, they are fed some expensive snacks and sweets, as well as some national specialties...... I don't know who taught the elves this habit. These elves now seem to be accustomed to giving gifts as a sign of friendship and apology, probably because they have received a lot of gifts from short-borns, thinking that this is the custom of short-born species.

Ivas went out with a bag and came back with a dozen bags. Lily was very surprised to see it.

I knew that Iwass went to apologize, and those who didn't know thought that Iwass went shopping.

“…… I have to say that the quality of the elves of the Church is really much higher than that of the Avalons. ”

Ivus lamented to Lily, "I'm getting a little sick. ”

But he thought about it and added, "But not necessarily. Or maybe it's because Pure White spread Loki's crimes ahead of time. ”

It's also a way to prevent Loki from cheating on the corpse - as long as Loki is officially certified dead, he is already dead on a social level.

Even if "other Loki" reappears, the social identity of "Cardinal Loki" and the influence it has can no longer be used.

Of course, it's also possible that there are some of Loki's fanatical personal followers who still hold a grudge against Ivus.

It's just that under the scene where those elves took the initiative to look for Ivus, the less friendly elves didn't come together at all.

Ivas felt that the room seemed to be too quiet, so he opened his mouth and asked, "What about Sister Freya?" ”

"The eldest lady has already gone back."

Lily opened her mouth and said in a soft voice: "She took those 'dates' that you gave to the pure white saint maiden, young master, and said that Her Royal Highness the holy lady gave them all to her. I'm going to go back and store them first. ”

"All ......? Isn't His Highness Pure White going to continue using it himself? ”

When Aihuas heard this, he put down the gift in his hand with some confusion: "Or does she have a new solution?" ”

Or is it that at the moment when Cardinal Loki was killed, the Pure White Saintess thought that the other cardinals would no longer be in trouble?

And that's reasonable.

The main thing that demanded the resignation of the saint was the controlled fire. The other cardinals were obviously aware of this, but they did not intend to embarrass him.

Wait for the Holy Maiden to succeed to the Pope, and then let Freya slowly develop a drug for the treatment of condensation. It's possible.

After all, it was the saint herself who made an agreement with Freya...... Let her prioritize the development of a more cost-effective treatment in the next three months. Anyway, these three months have long exceeded the pope election. That means that the saint at least doesn't count on Freya's elixir to solve her problems.

- Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the Holy Maiden no longer intends to succeed to the Pope. Although Cardinal Loki was absent, the saint voluntarily renounced the inheritance...... In this case, it is tantamount to Ivas detonating the hidden dangers and problems of the church in advance.

While the Holy Maiden is still sacred, it is certainly better to hold a round of general elections from the Church under her supervision than for the cardinals to divide themselves.

But in either case, Ivas had already handed over all his dates anyway. How to choose is the freedom of the saint, and he does not need to interfere.

While waiting for the information, Ivas continued to unpack the gifts one by one and prepare them for sorting and preservation.

One of the most expensive gifts is a set of medicine boxes that cover a variety of treatments and daily gains.

Open it and take a look, there are a total of eighteen medicines, ten alchemy concoctions, and eight witch potions. This looks like the product from Starantimony, and it even has a joint trademark between the Living Silver Workshop and another organization called the "Witch's Cauldron".

Ivas took a general look at the antimony text on it, and realized what this box of hardcover drugs was for.

Specifically, it's what it's used to do.

Not only does it cover all kinds of areas that might be used, but it's also beautifully packaged. Most of them are delicate vials made of crystal, gemstones and gold, and each bottle has a different shape.

Even if any of them are taken out alone, they can be called extremely expensive perfume bottles.

This thing must have been very popular among the Star Antimony nobles, but those who gave it as a gift to the elves must not have realized that the Church Elves and Star Antimony nobles had completely different habits. This box of medicine is four years old in terms of the date of manufacture, but even the seal on the outer packaging has not been removed.

Hopefully it hasn't expired.

Thinking so, Ivas put it in the cupboard.

- Take it with you when you go back, this is not suitable for teleporting back by means of sacrifice. It is not good to be seen.

It wasn't until it was about to get dark that a pair of papal guards knocked on the door and brought in the promised information.

The box startled Ivus.

Although Ivus had known for a long time, the High Divine Technique was another system independent of the Divine Technique. But he originally thought that this textbook was referring to an esoteric book, or some ancient mysterious prop such as a crystal ball, magic mirror, tree bark, stone slab, jade, etc.

As a result, I didn't expect it to be a set of textbooks.

The papal guards carried a set of hardcover wooden cabinet bookshelves more than half a meter high, with gold, silver, and red rune rings as seals on the outside. It was opened by the Pope's guards himself, and taught Ewass the code to unlock the seal.

Once the wrong password is entered, it will immediately destroy the books inside and sound an alarm. And it itself is very strong, and Ivus even found it to be a purple level mysterious object when he touched it.

The category is a body - that is, the system determines that this bookshelf is a piece of armor!

— and there's eleven books in it!

Each book is as thick as a dictionary, they are brand new, and they even feel like they have just been printed.

Only by putting the previous one back in can you take out the next one. In the case of one book being outside, the other books cannot be taken out.

Eventually, when Ivas finished reading, the box had to be returned to the church.

As soon as the two papal guards had left, Ivas returned to his study, intending to take them out and take a look at them.

As a result, as soon as he took out the first book of "Introduction to Advanced Divine Arts", he only turned a dozen pages, and he felt a little headache-

…… It turns out that the human bishop does not, and it is not a form of racial discrimination.

It's really not going to learn.

In other words, the people who wrote the textbooks did not simplify at all.

From the "Introduction to Higher Divine Arts", Ivus roughly understood its source.

When the elves were still fighting their own wars, the Church of the Nine Pillars God came out of it and unified the "Kingdoms of the Giant Tree". And they relied on the high divine techniques developed by the first pope.

The first pope invited the Nine Pillars God to come to the body through high divine arts, became the common messenger of the Nine Pillars God, and also became the only spokesperson for the Nine Pillars God to walk on the earth. It is precisely because of this that he was able to personally establish the Church of the Nine Pillars in the name of the Nine Pillars God.

The reason why a high divine technique is said to be a high divine technique is because its logic is based on divine art, but the foundation is not exactly the same. So the first pope swiped his pen and called it a high god—a sloppy-looking name he had chosen.

Yes, the first pope was a man. He is said to have the blood of a candle, but it is uncertain if it is true.

The specific manifestation is that he is an elf with a pair of huge antlers on his head. His antlers burn like candles.

And after his death, he was sublimated into the Candle Celestial Division.

In the beginning, these technologies were completely open.

Séance, greeting, jumping, inviting and channeling...... These skills in the human world today, which are still being passed down or have become tantric books, actually come from those short-lived species or elves who have studied advanced divine techniques but have not learned them.

And when they all come together, it is a complete inheritance of high divine arts.

The follow-up is that someone will deteriorate the difficult mastery of the high divine arts, and then use it to cooperate with some celestials, apostles, and even illusions in the dream world to bypass the restrictions of the sand time meter and lead them to the lower realm. This caused a lot of trouble for the equalizers, so the technology was subsequently controlled and banned.

But when Ivas reached page forty, he felt his brain swell.

The power of the forbidden was soaking his consciousness through words, and the world's barrier was constantly resisting Ivus's mastery of the craft—a motion sickness sensation, even a little disgusting.

"Forget it, I don't understand it, I don't read it."

Ivus closed the book decisively.

Originally, I wanted to see if I could master it...... At this point, I can read a maximum of 50 pages a day. I don't know how long it took to read these eleven books just once. This is really knowledge that only the immortals can master.

Tomorrow, take them directly and ask the Pure White Holy Maiden.

As long as the Pure White Saintess takes them and explains them to Aihuas, Aihuas can directly consume experience to master them!
