The Devil Priest and the Brave Beautiful Girl

Chapter 575: Sophia's successor (part 1)

Hundreds of flying dragons roared and flew in the sky hundreds of meters above the ground. On top of each flying dragon sits a knight in steel armor. This is the flying dragon legion that Sophia is proud of, and the direct legion of the black prince.

Among all the flying dragons, there is a dark black flying dragon that is twice the size of other flying dragons. Compared with other flying dragons, this flying dragon is more ferocious and ferocious, and even has a black heavy armor on its body. This is the king of flying dragons in the flying dragon legion. The most powerful existence of all flying dragons is also black. The mount of Prince Edward.

However, despite leading such a powerful army, the mood of the black prince Edward is not very good, as can be seen from the impatient expression on his handsome face. The flying dragon knights who followed him seemed to know that he was in a bad mood, and no one spoke, but followed him closely.

The flying dragon was moving at an astonishing speed, and soon flew to the outskirts of the destination town. From this distance, one can already vaguely see a corner of the buildings in the town. However, it is impossible for the Flying Dragon Legion to collectively land in this small affiliated town, so it must first land on the open space outside the town.

As the destination approached, the expression on Edward's face became more and more gloomy. In his eyes, the people on the ground working in the fields looked like ants, annoying.

"Land!" Accompanied by Edward's command, the flying dragon army that covered half of the sky began to collectively land. Soon, these behemoths flying in the sky landed on an open space near the town, but it was obvious that this open space that can accommodate a knight order of thousands of people is relative to the huge body of the flying dragon. It was so small that many flying dragons were crowded together.

In common sense, this is impossible to see. Although flying dragons are indeed the beasts of group life, unless it is the season of courtship, no flying dragon will come so close. but. Here, they are like human soldiers, crowded together without the slightest complaint, not even a protest movement.

"Where is the residence of Grand Priest Anad?" Edward's face improved a little after he got off the flying dragon's back. In any case, the Supreme God Cult is not an existence that he can take lightly. Even if Princess Victoria didn't say anything, he would not neglect the great priest who served in Sofia. What he hated was not the old priest who was highly respected in the Supreme God, but the behavior of Princess Victoria who arranged tasks for him without authorization.

"The convoy of the great priest is in the hotel on the west side of this town, and the guards responsible for him are Captain Schumacher of the Holy Knights of the High Holy Order and the four temporarily hired mercenaries." The elderly mage who followed Edward confirmed. After reading the information in his hand, he replied affirmatively.

"Living in a hotel? It really is the old priest's style. Even if there is no church in this town, there is no need to live in that kind of place, right? Doesn't the mayor of this town know the etiquette like this?" Edward frowned.

"No, intelligence shows that Grand Priest Anad did not send anyone to notify the mayor here. In fact, if Princess Victoria hadn't suddenly asked us to perform the guard mission, we wouldn't even know that he was here." The guide shook his head, and replied somewhat ashamed.

"Huh, do you even have a higher level of intelligence than us? That woman, I really can't underestimate it, let's go." A trace of dissatisfaction flashed through the corner of Edward's eyes. You must know that intelligence is not as good as an opponent, but it is a big taboo of war.

No, as expected, the power is still not enough. Without the decisive power to join, he will not be able to act on Victoria.

Originally, except for his father, as the future king of Sophia, he didn't need to obey anyone's orders. Especially the order of the woman who didn't know what was good or bad, and thought she could manipulate the king's power. However, now in Sofia Junior High, the voice supporting that woman to become a queen is very high.

Not only merchants and commoners, but even the ancient nobles who have always paid the most attention to the legitimacy of royal power, many people support her. This made him have to worry about his behavior. Before his father left the world, he had no facts in power and he could only expand his influence by establishing his own authority in the army.

However, things didn't go as smoothly as expected, although he himself was a seventh-level powerhouse with unquestionable strength, he should have been supported by the military as a matter of course. However, with the exception of the Flying Dragon Knights that he established, most of Sofia's other legions are not very optimistic about him, and only two or three kittens really swear allegiance to him. The reason for this status quo is a person, even someone who finds it troublesome, is called Lei Lu, the ghost of the battlefield.

In the crisis a few years ago, Leilu, who destroyed an entire army of the enemy country alone and completely rewritten the battle, had absolute prestige in the army. That kind of character that completely regards killing as nothing, and doesn't feel any sense of killing, coupled with a powerful strength beyond ordinary people's imagination, it is simply the incarnation of the "god of war" in the ideals of soldiers.

And that Leilu, the monster who didn't change his face even after killing thousands of people, was absolutely loyal to Princess Victoria. Only with her, most soldiers in the army would not be optimistic about him, and the overall form can be said to be overwhelmingly unfavorable for him. If he hadn't had the power to control the flying dragon, this army that belonged only to him would not even be able to be established.

While Edward was thinking about ways to deal with the current situation, he unknowingly walked to a crossroad, and on the other side of the crossroad, Ulysses and Arcelia, who had returned from practice, were also walking towards this side.

"Ulysses..." Arseria was about to open her mouth to remind Ulysses that someone was coming over, and the two of them had already run into it.

"Assassin!" Almost at the moment of the collision, Edward made a judgment. He knew that there was someone passing by, but there should be only one person, and he would not be hit by the root of the route. The person who hit him now, he didn't notice it at first. At this distance, it is impossible for him not to feel the breath of the opponent, unless the opponent is an assassin who is proficient in hiding his breath.

Is Victoria finally going to do something to him? Is it because of this reason that he was specifically asked to take charge of the task of guarding this great priest?
