Chapter 574 Two Gravekeeper Flowers Bloom at Blackmoya Cemetery
"What about mother? She stayed in the village?"
After a long silence, Gray asked softly.
"She said she was going to completely deal with the spiritual king and let you gain true freedom."
"..."
"But she is not a magician, nor is she an abnormality with extraordinary talents. She is just an ordinary human being. The chance of solving the King of Spirits is very slim."
"..."
"He should probably die."
"..."
Gray had thought about her own death countless times. Death might be a better choice for her life, but she found that none of it was what she imagined.
If she really died, there would be people who would grieve for her.
She could imagine that future, but she had never thought about what would happen if her mother died.
Yes, even if her mother really only regards herself as a vessel for King Arthur's resurrection, she does not want her mother to die.
"me……"
Gray lowered his eyes, moved his lips, and squeezed out a small voice from his throat, but the burning emotions in his heart were like a volcano about to erupt.
"I don't want my mother to die, I, I want to save her."
Her words were calm but contained a strong will. This was the first time Gray wanted to do something so strongly.
"Do you really want to go back? If you go back, I'm afraid you will never have freedom again."
Mikael narrowed his eyes slightly and used a strange tone of voice, which sounded like the devil's temptation.
Aozaki Aoko curled her lips, then walked behind him, stretched out her hand and pinched Mikael's waist hard.
"Hiss - it hurts, Qingzi, let go!"
"How long has it been and you are still doing this?"
Aozaki Aoko rolled her eyes at Mikael, then held Gray's hand and said solemnly,
"Don't worry, we will definitely help you save your mother, and you can be free. As for those imperfect endings, just smash them all!"
These words are really like Aoko's style. No matter what difficulties she encounters, she will face them and smash them to pieces with her fists. She has always done this.
"Don't teach Gray bad things."
Mikael patted Aoko's head gently.
"Although violence is very convenient, wisdom and knowledge are the fundamental differences between us and other creatures. Leave this matter to me."

"They really summoned something amazing."
In the bushes not far from the swamp, Priest Fernand and Sister Ermia used the bushes to hide their figures.
Priest Fernand held a monocular telescope in his hand and looked at the temple emerging from the swamp, sighing subconsciously.
"These people seem to be looking for something, and there aren't many guards in that temple. Wait, what is that?"
Sister Ermia frowned slightly, and she became serious. Once the real battle started, she would turn into a humanoid fighting machine.
Although it is very different from the real monsters in the church, if her opponents are just these villagers and an unknown "spiritual king", she still has confidence in herself.
She saw the spiritual king sitting on the stone throne, his whole body shrouded in a solid black armor.
"Forget it, how about just rushing out and killing that guy in one go?"
Sister Ermia stood up and was eager to take it, but was pulled back by Priest Fernand.
"That would be too risky. We have no information at all about that spiritual king. What if that guy is super powerful?"
Priest Fernand took out his handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said tremblingly.
"Haha~~ Just kidding, how could I be so reckless?"
A sly smile appeared on the corner of Sister Ermia's mouth, looking like a charming fox.
"That's my goal!"
She stretched out her slender white fingers and pointed to about half a street away from them, where a villager was holding a torch, seemingly searching for something.
"If you want information, it's better to get it from those people."
………
………
"Damn Magdalena, she actually let Gray go and assassinated our king. It's really heinous!"
Battle cursed angrily. As a loyal believer, he was disgusted with Magdalena's behavior from the bottom of his heart.
If the eldest grandma hadn't learned about Gray's whereabouts from her mouth, that bitch would have been executed on the spot, and in the most cruel way.
While cursing, he looked around hard, trying to find Gray who had been let go.
Wow——
The trees not far to the left were swaying, and the branches and leaves collided with each other, making a rustling sound.
As a countryman, Barter keenly judged that the sound was not the sound of the night wind, but someone walking through the trees.
[There is someone...could it be Gray?]
He was thinking to himself, his body was trembling slightly, and his excitement could not be suppressed. He subconsciously touched the kitchen knife on his waist and shouted loudly.
"Who is it, come out——!"
No one responded to him, but the noise in the bushes became more intense, and the people hiding behind the bushes seemed to be running away.
"Gray, I know it's you, come out quickly!"
Battle's face became distorted with a smile, looking like an evil ghost. He sped up and rushed towards the direction of the sound behind the trees.
Something seemed to trip him under his feet, and his upper body fell forward, and the torch in his hand fell aside.
As he was about to stand up, someone suddenly pinched his arm from behind and held him behind his back. At the same time, he pressed his knee against his back, so that he could only keep lying on the ground.
"Hi~~"
"Ah, it would be bad if there was a fire. Forest fires are not that simple."
A familiar voice rang in his ears, and Bart turned his neck hard, trying to see clearly who was subduing him.
Of course, even without looking, he already had an answer in his mind.
"Priest Fernand, what are you doing?"
He looked at the round, hippopotamus-like figure and said through gritted teeth,
"Is your church also involved?"
"Participate in what?"
Priest Fernand and Sister Ermia looked at each other, then looked at each other with great interest, and then looked at the subdued Battle.
"Tell me, what happened? Why did you suddenly summon that temple? What are you looking for?"
Battle was about to shout loudly, but Sister Yin Ermiya's hands exerted a slight force. The strong sense of suffocation left him speechless and his face turned red from holding back.
"Please cooperate obediently, otherwise I'm not sure what I will do~~"
