Chapter 1,23: Break (Part 1)
Principality of Salante. Capital
The city has not been damaged much, but some buildings are emitting wisps of black smoke.
A large number of people found their own homes and moved in.
"What happened?" Pope Kanrongpa, who was arranging some things in the temple, was suddenly stopped. He turned around and saw his knight with a embarrassed expression, so he asked.
"Pope, someone asked to see my lord, look..." The knight said in a bit embarrassed.
"Please see my lord? Who is it? Where is it now?" Pope Kanrongpa was stunned at first and then asked.
"When the Archbishop said, he is now outside the temple. He is a strange person. I didn't plan to inform him and tell him that my master would not see a guest. Who knew that when he glared, I couldn't even move my body. I felt that this was not an ordinary person, so I came to tell you." The knight explained.
"Do you know where he came from?" asked Pope Kanrongpa, frowned.
"I don't know much about this, but he is definitely not an angel. This is something I can be sure of, because the target we are currently guarding is only the angel legion, and the city gate is still open normally. He should have passed by the city gate. I don't know where he came from." The knight replied.
"I'll go out and have a look." After hearing what I said, Pope Kanrongpa felt that the person coming must be not an ordinary person, and perhaps a sane false god?
Or a senior professional in other territories?
However, from the other party's request to see God Romon, it is very likely that the other party is a false god.
Thinking of the alliance between multiple territories that I had heard before, Pope Kanrongpa clearly realized that in this chaotic world, a new type of combat is emerging, that is, joint combat.
After leaving the temple, at the gate, Pope Kanrongpa really saw a man wearing a black robe, his whole body was wrapped from head to toe, with only a pale face exposed outside, black and white set against each other, making people more and more impressive.
"Your Excellency, you want to see my lord?" As soon as you approached this man, Pope Kanrongpa felt a familiar atmosphere.
This aura is huge and dark, and is a breath like a false god.
It seems that this person is really a god, but he just doesn't know what purpose he has for coming to find my master.
As soon as Ope entered the knight to report, he stood at the gate without moving.
He didn't respond much when the passers-by pointed at him. For him, these were all like clouds. He was more concerned about it now because he could see Romon. If he couldn't even see him, it would be troublesome.
Hearing someone's question, Opp raised his head and looked at the other party.
Seeing that the middle-aged man with great grace appeared in front of him, he immediately realized that this was probably the head of the temple here.
"Yes." Opp replied in a hoarse voice.
If it were before, he wouldn't have to come here in person and talk to a mortal.
The situation is different now. The world's laws are already in chaos. He can walk around. Although he has lost his power of action, he must obey the other party when the mysterious power that controls him gives instructions. However, at other times, he still feels quite good. It would be even better if he can get rid of the control of that power.
Upon hearing Opp's answer, Pope Kanrongpa asked again: "What do you call me? Is there anything special about seeing my Lord?"
Asking such words at a god may have been a bit rude in the past, but in the current chaos, it is normal.
There is no way to distinguish whether the other party is an enemy or a friend, so naturally they will not rashly let the other party enter the territory of the leader they believe in.
Although Opp was a little impatient, he also knew that in the current situation, he had to see Romon and talk to him. If he had the chance, it would be a better result to kill the other party. He said lightly: "My name is Opp, and he is a god. This time he came here to form an alliance with your Lord. Please inform him."
Hearing this, Pope Kanrongpa nodded, said "Wait", and began to communicate with Romon through consciousness.
When Romon was in the main world before, they could communicate. Now that Romon and him are in the same city, it is naturally very convenient to communicate.
Soon, Romon reacted.
"Is there something wrong?" A faint voice sounded in the world of consciousness of Pope Kanrongpa.
"My Lord, one person wants to see you, a false god named Opp, who said he wanted to form an alliance with you." Pope Kanrongpa answered directly through consciousness.
"I already know, let him come over." Romon replied without any hesitation.
"Yes, my lord." After receiving Romon's response, when he raised his head again, Pope Kanrongpa was already looking at the middle-aged man opposite him with a smile.
"My Lord, my Lord has promised to see you. Please follow me. He is not in this place now, and he is going to a manor about five kilometers away from here."
Opp nodded and said, "Okay."
Soon, Pope Kanrongpa called two carriages, and he got into one of them, and the other carriage was given to Opp.
Originally, Opp didn't want to waste time taking a carriage, but even if he wanted to fly there, he didn't know the way. Besides, as a god who was once extremely noble, Opp was not too resistant to riding a carriage, so after hesitating for a moment, he got on the carriage behind him.
The two carriages drove one in front and one behind for a while, and finally stopped in front of a small manor.
Romon likes quietness. The place he chose was surrounded by more wilderness and few residential areas. There was a faint smell of grass in the air, which smelled very comfortable.
Pope Kanrongpa got off the carriage first and saw that this man got off the carriage, he smiled and said, "My Lord lives in it. Currently, he is the only one in the manor. You can just go in directly. My mission has been completed. I wish you a happy chat with my Lord."
After saying that, he got back on the carriage and left.
The carriage carrying Opp also went back. As the sound of the carriage gradually faded away, the surrounding environment began to appear very quiet.
Opp stepped into the manor and walked along a road. A two-story building appeared in front of him.
There were no other buildings around, and Romon should have lived in it. Opp wanted to push the door open, but the door opened by himself at this time.
"It's His Highness Opp, right? Please come in." A gentle male voice rang out at this moment.
Opp was shocked and couldn't help but be alert. There was no other reason, because at this moment, he felt a profound power.
However, it has not exceeded its bottom line yet, so it hesitated for a moment and continued to move forward.
Walking inside from the gate, he soon saw a person, and it must be this Romon.
Seeing that Romon actually turned his back to him, Opp really couldn't help but want to attack. If he could kill the other party at this moment, he would make a profit.
But without finding out the opponent's strength, he did not dare to take action rashly. In addition, the main purpose this time was to form an alliance with the opponent and find that the opponent could be killed, killing the opponent was his choice. Opp still held back.
"Your Excellency is Romon?" After walking a few steps, Op stopped and asked at a distance of seven or eight meters away from the other party.
The man smiled and turned around, his face calm: "I am, Lord Opp, I heard that you came to me for an alliance?"
"Yes, Lord Romon, we all feel very encouraging when we heard that you had just defeated the Angel Legion. If possible, can we join forces to deal with those Angel Legion? The strength of several people is always greater than that of one person, isn't it?" Opp said in a hoarse voice and persuaded.
"What you said makes sense, but... I can't agree to you." Romon's half of his head made Opp happy, but the second half made him stunned.
"Why?"
"I never ally with people other than my friends. I don't want to hand over my back to a group of people who always want to kill me." Romon said with a smile.
"What do you mean?" When Opp heard the man opposite say this, he knew it was not good.
Sure enough, Romon said coldly: "I didn't see your sincerity. As soon as I entered the door, you wanted to kill me, didn't you?"
When Opp heard Romon say this, he knew it was not good. The other party had already released his murderous intent. It seemed that this time, he was going to take action seriously.
"If you have to say that, I can't... die!" The pseudo-god also has dignity, not to mention that Opp's body is now half of the bloodline of a vampire, and he is very prone to getting angry. When he heard the sarcasm in Romon's words, his anger suddenly came up.
Almost at the same time, around the courtyard, thirty-six trees suddenly lit up green light, forming a huge magic circle, and in an instant, the green light enveloped the entire courtyard.
"Besides, you want to kill me, and I want to kill you too. Under the current circumstances, the Divine One has fallen behind. To survive and develop, you must be promoted to a true demigod." Romon said coldly, his domain was suddenly combined with the entire green light, and then the domain rose wildly.
"Don't resist, it's useless. You have lost your faith country. If you had the support of your territory and faith, your power was indeed very strong, but now you are just a group of lambs!"
"Instead of reaping divinity to the angels, it's better to give it to me!" Romon roared angrily.
