What kind of weird button is this?

Chapter 75 There’s no turning back
  Sirius didn't expect that Moura would understand his words so well.

He regretted what he just said to confuse the audience, because Sirius always felt that he was doing something to divert trouble to the east, hinting that if the demons wanted to deal with Anka, then he would point the finger at it. Just the church.

For a moment, Sirius felt a little shameless.

Bishop Calvin is very kind to me, and he once saved his life. But if he did such a shameless thing, how could he have the dignity to appear in the church in the future?

So with that being said, where is that guy Jim? Come and save me... As a loyal fan of the Demon King, you must have discovered the true identity of the witch in front of you and then defected on the spot, right?

Sure enough, that traitor is unreliable. At critical moments, you still have to rely on his eloquent words.

"I understand, this is what you want to express to me, right?"

Mo La put her hands on her white silk thighs, her head lowered and she didn't know what she was thinking, "If one day Anka encounters a big disaster, then it will definitely spread from the church.

After all, in your analysis, as long as Ankh loses the church, everyone here will lose hope. "

"No, no, no, you misunderstood." Sirius quickly denied, "What I meant was that the position in the Anka Church is indeed very important, and this is undeniable.

But in fact, his status is not the most important. At least in my opinion, there is something more important than him. "

Mo La frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable when she heard Sirius's words of denial.

But after thinking about it, it is indeed reasonable. If Sirius is the devil, then it will be easy for him to destroy a church. And if she had not been exposed, it is estimated that the other party would probably send the man named Jim to attack. church.

"How about we change the topic."

Sirius coughed awkwardly, trying to cover up his inner panic with a cough and a raised teacup.

"Alice, you came to me not just to discuss the church here in Anka, right? You want to convey to me the greatness of the God of Light, and I also think your ideas are correct, so our chat itself should not be Narrow enough to only focus on the current Ankh Church.

Instead, we should look at a longer-term and deeper perspective and pay attention to the role played by the God of Light among humans. "

"God of Light?"

"Yes." Sirius regained his confident smile, "Miss Sister, do you know why mankind has been able to resist stubbornly in the long river of history until now?"

"Because of their unity, they will show amazing cohesion and courage in times of crisis."

"Yes and no."

Sirius shook his head, pretending to be a big liar, "Actually, in my opinion, the reason why humans have been able to exist for so long and even survive the confrontation with the demons is that they killed the demon king and let the demons Disappearance depends on more than just these.”

"What does that rely on?"

"It relies on the God of Light, and it relies on people's belief in the God of Light that they have never given up from the beginning to the end. And because of people's belief in him, the gods in turn give blessings to mankind."

"You mean, the reason why humans can survive depends on God?"

As a nun of the church, Mo La should actually make a happy expression when she heard these words. She could even imagine the joy on Bishop Calvin's face when she conveyed today's conversation to him.

"Of course, it depends on the God of Light. Although many people don't want to believe it, it is the fact."

Seeing that Mo La had entered her own rhythm, Sirius raised the corner of his mouth with a subtle arc.

He now felt that he should be able to successfully fool this witch who seemed to have a bad mind. He only needs to direct the topic to the God of Light, whom the demons fear the most, so that Mo La can retreat and let the entire demon clan behind him know that human beings are not easy to mess with.

"I don't understand..."

"Let's put it this way. You can think about it, in the battle between humans and demons, humans obviously don't have the magic talent of demons. Why do the demons lose in the end?

In front of the demons, even the magical talents of the elves are slightly inferior. Then move your eyes to the wider continent, and you will find that except for those races with low intelligence, humans are the weakest among them. "

"you are right……"

I have to admit that Mora now strongly agrees with Sirius' words. But what troubled her was why the other party said these words.

Could it be that the other party is not a demon king at all? Otherwise, why would he brag crazily about human beings in front of himself?

"Because of the blessings of the gods, humans have the power to control magic. Among them, the first few people respected by the gods gained different types of awakening powers, and their descendants, now the nobles, have also inherited such special powers. ability.

This is mankind's greatest reliance and the basis for their ability to unite and defeat the enemy.

Without these, it is just like a group of ants fighting against an elephant, which is meaningless. "

"..." Nora frowned suddenly, and she suddenly had an ominous premonition in her heart.

“Perhaps Ankh’s church will be destroyed, and Ankh will also be destroyed, but humans will not lose hope because of this, because they still believe in gods, and they have the gift given to them by the God of Light.

As long as this remains unchanged, mankind can find new hope in despair.

The hope of the Ankh people now is the Church, but later... it can also be someone else. "

fear.

Mo La's hands under the table couldn't help but tremble. She really wished that she could leave now and pretend that the man in front of her had not said anything before and had nothing to say later.

"Miss Sister, have you ever heard of divine punishment?"

The key point came. Teacher Sirius began to slap the small blackboard with his pointer. The next few words would be the key to him turning everything around.

"God's punishment...are you talking about the vision that happened more than a month ago?"

"Yes."

"..."

Of course, it was impossible for Mo La not to know about that, because she was in Anka at that time. To be more precise, she was on the front line of Anka and fled to a nearby cave with a group of soldiers.

"I believe you should know how terrifying that divine punishment was. It was a corner of the power of the God of Light, a power that even the demons were afraid of.

If mankind moves toward self-destruction, God will unleash his wrath. But the question is...if others want to destroy mankind, will the God who favors us really stand by and watch? "

"This...should not...ah, no, not necessarily, or...this situation has never happened before."

In fact, Mo La didn't believe in the theory of divine punishment before. Although she later heard from Calvin that the vision was caused by the dying of the second prince of the empire, she didn't believe it at that time. I don't care, just treat it as a coincidence. But now that these words are spoken from Sirius's mouth, the meaning is completely different.

"Are you trying to tell me that if you could bring about divine punishment at that time, then you can do the same in the future?"

"Huh?" Sirius didn't expect Mo La to speak so directly, and he felt a little embarrassed for a moment, "I didn't say that, I was just stating a fact.

And there are many people who don’t believe this statement, right? For example, my imperial sister never believed that the vision was caused by me.

So, for things like divine punishment, the premise is that people have to believe in the God of Light, right? "

"Believe in God..."

Mo La's head was buzzing. Even after the conversation ended, she didn't know in what form she left the Sirius family manor.

She only knew that when she walked down the mountain, a sentence from Jim suddenly popped into her head.

‘He will be the god of the new world. ’

"...Maybe I need to change my thinking."

------------

"How should we dispose of the body..."

Liz, who had been working in the room for a long time to clean up the blood and traces of the fight, had already forgotten Sirius's order for everyone to leave.

She was now in a completely chaotic mental state.

Liz believed that what she did was right and that people like Fanny should die; at the same time, she was afraid of such a strange self and thought that she should not take away other people's lives so casually.

——Even if this is just an accident.

But who can prove that this was an accident? The dead person appeared in her room. If she didn't cover it up now, who would believe that she was innocent? In the situation just now, if Hetty became suspicious and wanted to go into her room to take a look, how should she explain it?
  Maybe except for his master, everyone else would look at him like a murderer.

Liz sighed, deciding not to think about these things for now. Now that it has happened, all she needs to do now is to deal with the aftermath.

The first thing she needed to do was to move the corpse. Although a terrible thought flashed through her mind, and she wanted to use Fanny's corpse to practice corpse manipulation, such a terrible thought was quickly suppressed by reason.

She first took out a large sack from the utility room, and then taking advantage of this period of time when no one was in the house and Sirius was concentrating on talking to the nun in the drawing room, she stuffed Fanny's "body" into it. into the bag.

In order not to make too much noise, Liz slowed down the whole process. In addition, it was difficult for her to move Fanny by herself, so she moved Fanny to the back door and kicked her around. When she rolled it back down the mountain, her face and body were already covered in sweat.

Panting heavily, she really wanted to give up on everything. Anyway, if Sirius hadn't saved her, she would have been sold away by her father long ago.

It is a rare blessing that she can live to this day and do what she wants to do under the sun.

But Liz felt that she was a very bad girl, she was too greedy, and she wanted to stay in the manor and live with Lord Siris.

She wants to use her actions to repay and be grateful...

Thinking of this, Liz returned to the house behind her, and then picked up the shovel that gardeners usually used to plant trees.

After a short rest, she began to dig a suitable grave for the dead Fanny. As long as no one came here to dig, she believed that this secret would be kept for a long time.

Even if he discovers it later, he may not be suspected much.

But just when the pit was dug and she was about to throw the sack and the "corpse" in it, she was suddenly frightened by the scene in front of her.

The sack is moving...

In other words, the people inside are not dead?

"Woooo..."

However, it is obvious that Fanny inside may still be in an unconscious state, but has some signs of awakening, and has not fully recovered her normal ability to think and act.

what to do? This question directly froze Liz in place. She really hoped that someone could make the choice for her, but unfortunately she was the only one now.

If you stop now, you won't be stained with blood yet.

"I'm sorry..." A smile appeared on Liz's face. The smile was weird and even looked horrifying, "You have to die."

Liz knew there was no turning back. Whether it was the other party threatening to make it impossible for him to stay in the manor when there was no accident before, or whether he was planning to kill someone now.

She could only move forward in this darkness.

Yes, darkness is the friend who has accompanied her most over the years. Liz thought of the night when she was instigated by her father to throw her mother into the river. She thought of the darkness in the closet when she was abused by her father. She thought of many things...

He even thought of the moment in the basement when Siris used the power from darkness to save himself. What's even more interesting is that after escaping the darkness of the basement, she did not usher in a new light.

Because - that day was a rainy night.

And that rainy night may imply that her future has been decided from the beginning, and she can only exist in the darkness and dance with the darkness.

"I will not repent to you because I am an unforgivable sinner..."

The dirt covered Fanny's body, and the other party began to notice something was wrong.

"From now on, I will become the shadow of my master. Being selfish and greedy, I am willing to give up everything to be by his side."

"Ugh...Liz...you!"

The soil continued to cover it and got into Fanny's mouth through the sack, leaving the other party speechless.

"Haha, it's all your fault. You obviously didn't have to go through my room. Why did you force me... Why did you expose the fact that I'm a scumbag?"

"..."

I can no longer hear the sound...

Liz knelt weakly on the ground, and then shed tears of regret.
