What kind of weird button is this?

Chapter 69 In this case, I show my cards

Jim felt that he was really embarrassed now.

After escaping from Nalia yesterday, he has actually been afraid of being recognized again. Although if he finds a suitable wand and gives him enough chanting time, Nalia, who is all about physical combat, will The swordsman is definitely no match for him.

But the problem is that this woman is from Sirius's side.

Fighting and fighting, talking and arguing, in the end, he can only choose to avoid it. Being a villain is extremely embarrassing for him.

But when he thought that the more embarrassing one had now become the puppet emperor, Jim felt much less unbalanced.

Today, he first spent some money at the market to buy some loose clothes that could hide his appearance, and then he had the courage to come to the church to look for some work that he could do.

The reason why he dared to come here was that from his point of view, Sirius, as a descendant of the royal family, should not have any deep connection with the church even though he has apparently lost his previous status.

For the church that has taken control of Anka, who does it least want to see right now? That must be Sirius who has a royal background.

On the other hand, I can't really condescend to serve dishes in some small restaurant, can I?

He still wants to have a decent job, although this kind of dignity is not half as good as the one that everyone revered when he was in Aphramar.

But just as he was about to approach the church door, he happened to bump into Sirius coming out of it. The two of them stood on both sides of the steps, going up and down, and the atmosphere was even a bit awkward.

"Lord Sirius?!"

What Jim didn't expect was that after he said this, Sirius on the opposite side seemed to have not seen him, ignored him and walked directly in the direction where he came from.

Although he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, Jim knew that he now needed to gain Sirius's trust. Only by getting close to this terrifying man and gaining his trust could he gain the power he had pursued throughout his life.

"Lord Sirius, can you listen to me for a few words?"

"Ah you are……"

Sirius actually didn't want to have anything to do with this man named Jim. On the one hand, he always felt that this man who could easily betray Engri was untrustworthy, and on the other hand...

He is really not a demon spy.

"I'm Jim."

Jim looked a little embarrassed, but he wasn't embarrassed because Sirius didn't recognize who he was, but because he really didn't know what to say when he found himself standing in front of Sirius.

"Jim, oh...I remember."

Sirius's pretended surprised expression was very fake.

"I've already said, I'm not the... what kind of clan you say." Sirius said sincerely, "I don't have what you want here. If you are here to travel, then I welcome you.

If you are here to expose me to the church, then I advise you to give up this pointless waste of time. "

Jim saw that Sirius's attitude was very determined, and he realized that it was his behavior of coming to the church that made him feel wary.

"No, no, I'm just here to get a job."

"Work?"

There was a hint of doubt in Sirius's eyes, but the next moment he stepped aside and said calmly, "Then don't bother me, just continue~"

But it was obvious that his words did not drive away this difficult follower, but instead made Jim come closer to him in a more flattering manner.

"Hehe... Well, now that Lord Siris is here, why should I find a job... Working for you is my lifelong belief."

"...Has anyone ever said that you look like a dog now?"

"Uh...Wangwang?"

Sirius's face was full of black lines. He couldn't understand why someone could be so shameless.

He was already regretting the harsh words he just said impulsively and thinking about how to deal with this royal magician who was difficult for him to deal with in a fair PK, but he did not expect that the other party would actually make such a shocking move.

But after thinking about it carefully, Sirius felt that he could actually make proper use of Jim in front of him.

Although this is an untrustworthy human traitor, he may indeed need such a help on the road against the witch.

"Since you insist so much, then come with me to a suitable place to talk."

Sirius patted Jim's shoulder and took the lead towards the small woods behind the church.

Such a hint made Jim, who just now felt a little shameless, suddenly beam with joy. At this moment, he didn't even care about the way the people around him looked at him like a fool, and followed Sirius happily.

The grove behind the church looks quite nice. The trees are tall and lush, and the green barrier formed by the intertwining of various tree species gives people a feeling of being isolated from the world. It is a good place for private conversations, especially things that you do not want others to hear.

Where Sirius stood, the sunlight just shined through the leaves above his head and onto his face, making the man in Jim's eyes look not like a demon king at all, but like a divine child of light.

After giving up the funny idea in his mind, Jim knelt tremblingly on one knee in front of Sirius with a nervous mood, like a servant waiting to be given an order.

"Since you already know, I won't hide it anymore."

Sirius eased the tension in his heart and said calmly: "I hope that my identity will be a secret forever. If you let me know that you have said it, even if you just mention those two words to others, you will not It will end well, do you understand?"

"My subordinate understands."

The identity was transferred very quickly.

After Sirius complained slightly in his mind, he continued to bravely say: "Since you want to get the new life you want from me, then you need to show your value. You should understand this, right?"

"Yes, although my subordinates don't have the terrifying strength of Demon... Sir, I can do some things that are inconvenient for you to do. This is my advantage and the reason why I think you need me."

"You mean...I need you?"

Upon hearing this, Jim's legs softened and he knelt on the ground.

"No, my subordinate is wrong. I need you, sir. I will show my value. Please give me a chance to prove my ability."

"..."

Sirius actually almost broke the skill just now. When he saw Jim suddenly move, he thought that the other party was preparing to rush over and fight him desperately.

He didn't feel any guilt when he deceived this man, because this man really wanted to kill himself when he was defenseless.

Even regarding his next words and his decision to let Jim die in front of the witch, Sirius said it without any hesitation.

"Now I have a mission for you."

"Yes." "Weren't you going to go to church just now? There happens to be something related to the church that you need to complete. I believe you should be able to do it well."

"Sir, please speak." Jim's eyes flashed with joy, because he knew that this meant that he was one step closer to his dream.

"I need you to hide your identity, sneak into the church, and then 'take care of' someone for me. Her name is Alice."

"Alice..."

Sirius nodded, and then continued to explain: "Yes, maybe to you she is just an ordinary nun, and she even looks very weak, but she is very important to me..."

"She...is your daughter?"

puff……

Sirius almost couldn't hold it in and spurted out.

"I don't like the way your mouth talks. I hope you can pay more attention when you speak in the future..."

"I know my mistake. I will never dare to make any assumptions about you, Master."

Jim knew that he had said the wrong thing in his excitement, and he suddenly trembled all over and kept apologizing and kowtowing.

"That's all, you just need to keep an eye on her. If she does anything unusual, report it to me. If she does something out of the ordinary, I hope you can warn her, because I don't want my plan to be compromised. She disrupted it, do you understand?”

Sirius felt that he was simply a genius.

He really didn't dare to take the initiative to confront that dangerous person, and now he couldn't go to the church every day to check on the other party's movements. Now that he had Jim, a fool, to help him watch over the witch, at least he didn't have to worry about the person who was going to die. Be yourself.

With such a human shield to share the damage for him, he at least has time to wait for the next button to appear and see if there is any chance to reverse the current predicament.

"I understand, master. Please rest assured, master. I will definitely do what you asked me to do and I will not let Alice disrupt your plan, master."

Although Jim didn't know what this so-called plan was, he naturally didn't dare to ask unless Sirius told him.

"Oh, by the way, when you have free time, find me some magic books written by you humans. I really want to see if after all these years, your understanding of magic is still as superficial and ridiculous as before."

"Master is joking, how can a mere human's understanding of magic surpass yours?

But since the master is interested in these, his subordinates will definitely try their best to search for relevant books. "

The conversation between the two in the woods didn't last long, because in Sirius' opinion, the more he said, the more he would make mistakes.

He needs to maintain a sense of mystery, no matter who he is. Maybe it was an act of dancing on the edge of a knife, but if he hadn't done it he probably wouldn't be alive today.

When Sirius and Jim left the woods, another thing was happening simultaneously in the church on the other side.

Mo La, who deliberately wandered outside for a while before returning to the church, was looking at Bishop Calvin with some uneasiness in front of her, who called her over and was talking alone.

In this confession room where there were only the two of them, the two of them maintained a strange silence. Mo La stood aside and watched Calvin standing in front of the statue of the God of Light in the room, doing some praying movements, although she I know this is Calvin's habit, but I still can't help but mentally increase the pressure on myself out of thin air.

In the end, it was as if Calvin finally realized that there was Mo La behind him who he had been waiting for a long time. After arranging the props on the table, he turned around with a smile and looked at this girl like a daughter. children.

And until now, he still couldn't see anything suspicious about Alice, who he had taken care of for many years.

Maybe the Holy Son thinks too much? Even if Alice does have a secret that she doesn't know, it would probably just be some children's complaints about the strict demands of their elders, rather than some conspiracy to harm humanity.

The possibility of the latter was so low that he couldn't help but laugh.

"Alice, how long have you been coming to church?"

"Your Majesty Bishop, it should be 11 years."

"It's been 11 years..." Calvin touched his beard, shook his head and sighed, "Time flies so fast. I didn't expect that the child I picked up from the ruins at that time would have grown so big. Big.”

"Thank you, Bishop, for taking care of you. Although Alice is useless and has been unable to help you..."

"None of this is important. After all, I never thought that the church would ever need you to take charge of it. I'm very happy that you can persist without being angry at me until now."

"I...how could I be angry with you?"

"Really? I think normal people shouldn't be able to accept such a strict me, right? Especially a child like you, haha~"

Calvin burst out laughing after hearing Moura's words. Now he felt more and more that Sirius must be too nervous, because in his opinion, after the power struggle in the imperial city, Sirius should be in a very tired and sensitive state now. state.

After all, when Sirius was sent here for treatment, he knew that the so-called internal style of the royal family was far dirtier than that of Luther in Anka. The person who dared to poison the second prince was most likely not an ordinary person. Maybe it comes from within the royal family.

After so many betrayals, it’s inevitable to become suspicious, right? But everything will pass, and the God of Light will bless all people with good intentions.

"Alice, have you ever thought about what you want to do in the future?"

"What?" Moura showed a panicked expression. She thought Calvin was trying to drive her away, "Mr. Bishop, Alice just wants to be by your side. I..."

"To be honest, you don't fit here. In fact, I talked about your problem with a friend today, although many of what he said were ridiculous.

But I also sensed there was some truth to those words. "

Although Calvin did not believe Sirius's slander against Alice, he sincerely believed that she should choose a new life on her own because she could not integrate into church life. He has controlled Alice for too long and should learn to let go.

"No, Lord Bishop, I am willing to learn. I will appear in front of you more, learn to integrate into the church, and try to make some friends..."

"..."

"..."

Embarrassed, Mo La realized for the first time that she had been pretending for so many years, and in the end, her flaws were revealed in this way.

"Alice."

"Your Majesty Bishop...I..."

"Did you stay out all afternoon and eavesdropped on the conversation between Sir Sirius and me?"

"me?"

Nora was stunned. She didn't expect the bishop to speak for her like this. At this moment, she even felt an inexplicable sense of victory.

It turns out that being cute every day really works!
