201 Their Believers

The old king opened his wrinkled lips and said slowly.

“Elan Kingdom has existed on the mainland for nearly a thousand years, and there are seven generations of kings…”

“The reign of each generation of kings is about a hundred years. This is the limit of life that people can survive after using various magics and potions.”

“Well?”

Raz, who was lying in Luo Ning’s arms, was not in a daze. She listened to the old king from beginning to end.

Human beings are talking about the angel race with Lord God. As an angel, Raz, of course, wants to help Lord God to analyze and analyze. If the other side is lying, she will definitely be able to judge.

Raz was a little surprised:

“Elan Kingdom has existed for nearly a thousand years, and a generation of kings has existed for a hundred years… but you are the seventh generation and the last generation of kings at present, which means…”

Raz raised his hands and looked at his ten short fingers.

She clenched her fingers and counted as she did so.

After almost exhausting his life-long arithmetic ability, he finally figured out the numbers.

“In other words… you have lived for three hundred years!” Raz said in astonishment:

“Impossible, humans can’t live for so long!”

Luo Ning pressed Raz’s head so that she wouldn’t go on talking.

The old king laughed under Raz’s innocent expression, and he waved his hands again and again.

“It’s true that normal humans can’t live that long…but, you know, there’s a way to prolong human lifespan.”

The old king kept his eyes on Luo Ning, and then said:

“In addition to the magic and potion I just said can temporarily prolong life, there is another way…”

“Lord Luo Ning knows that humans and most races can breed offspring.”

When Luo Ning heard this, his eyes gradually narrowed.

He seemed to be able to guess what the old king wanted to say next.

“Humans combine with any race other than humans, and the offspring they produce are called ‘subhumans’.”

“But there is a subhuman that has hardly appeared in this world.”

“No one dares to try, because they are the embodiment of holiness, they are loyal and chaste, and more importantly…their breeding method is very special, and they need the water of heaven’s holy water.”

“But in this long history, there are always one or two omissions… Descendants of angels and humans: ‘sub-angels’, angels whose blood has been diluted countless times, maybe they really exist?”

As the old king spoke, he unbuttoned his coat.

The thick gold-trimmed coat slipped off the moment it was unbuttoned.

“Ugh!”

Raz’s eyes widened, she also felt that the old king’s words were a bit incredible, and she also wanted to witness this magical scene.

But Luo Ning didn’t show her, and covered her eyes.

“Um!”

Raz tried to struggle several times, and finally chose to compromise in the hands of Luo Ning.

The old king’s body was as thin as dry wood that had lost moisture, and his loose coat soon fell off.

Under the gaze of Luo Ning, the old king slowly turned around.

Luo Ning’s eyes froze for a moment.

He nodded silently, indicating that the old king could put it on.

The old king put on his coat leisurely, and then sighed again.

“It’s worship, in fact… it can be regarded as a kind of yearning. I yearn for the blue sky, the golden sunshine, the pieces of pure white wings, and the paradise that I can’t set foot on.”

The old king’s voice was a little old and hollow.

His life span of more than 300 years is already inconceivable in the eyes of humans, but compared with angels, he is not even a mature body.

But after all, he grew up in the human world, and all his experiences have been respected by humans as an elder.

“I know that I’m not an angel who fell into the world, I’m just… a human who yearns for an angel.”

There was a bit of bitterness on the old king’s face.

Although he has an angel blood, he also yearns for an angel, and he also wants to have a pair of holy wings.

But it is only limited to ‘thinking’. His obsession has created his belief and worship of angels.

“Lord Luoning, the girl you took with you yesterday… is she an angel?”

The old king’s question made Luo Ning’s expression a little shaken.

In the eyes of the old king, such a shake is more like an affirmation.

“Although the body is covered by clothes, it can’t hide the beautiful temperament… Combined with the feathers you showed me today, I can be more boldly affirmed that what I see is the hidden wings. Angel.”

Luo Ning didn’t speak, he just looked down at Raz in his arms.

Raz winked at him.

Perhaps the old king never thought of himself, that the angel he had admired all his life was right in front of him.

And the holy angel he worships had ketchup smeared in his mouth half an hour ago because he ate a tonkatsu burger.

“Lord Luoning…?”

Luo Ning was silent for a long time, when the old king called him softly.

Luo Ning quickly looked back.

Now it was his turn to answer the old king’s question.

The information between them must be exchanged with each other, and Luo Ning also counted on the old king to arrange a powerful magic teacher for him.

Luo Ning cleared his throat.

He may not be able to play the role of the messenger of heaven.

Taking on this role will lead to more questions. The old king Bao Buqi will continue to ask how the heaven is, how the angels are, what the mission of the messenger is, and a series of questions.

The price of making up a lie is to make up more lies to round it up. Luo Ning didn’t want to be so troublesome, so Luo Ning sighed under the watchful eyes of the old king.

“Yes, that’s right, there is indeed an angel by my side. I have received guidance from the angel, and I have a task at hand… The time is quite pressing.”

At least most of Luo Ning’s words are true, and there is no pressure to say this from his mouth.

“I’m here to see you, the situation is very clear, I need a mentor now, the trading chip I can give you is this pocket of angel feathers, as for the request you mentioned yesterday to become your exclusive magician , sorry I can’t do it.”

Luo Ning felt that he should stop worrying about those problems, and he returned the topic to the right track.

But the old king was still a little reluctant.

He has lived for so long and waited so long, and finally got some information about the angel when he was getting old.

“Of course I don’t dare to delay your affairs, and I won’t ask you to be my exclusive mage…”

“These tasks you do are for the angels, right?”

The old king’s voice was very soft.

However, his voice was particularly heavy due to the aging of his vocal cords.

“Yes.” Luo Ning nodded solemnly.

Thinking that he still has a mission to save Rafael from the cage, so Luo Ning did not lie about this matter.

The old king was indeed a devout believer, and Luo Ning instinctively did not deceive him.
