Allen once predicted that there would definitely be a war between the Braden Kingdom and the Papal Territory.
After all, after the trial of Archbishop Yak Nelga, the Kingdom of Braden gradually broke away from the control of the Church of Light.
According to Allen's plan, he planned to return to the Kingdom of Braden with the believers of the Dark Temple when the war started. He would use this war to change the deep-rooted stereotypes of the Kingdom's citizens against the Dark Temple, and then gradually after the war,
The new faith was promoted throughout the country, and the Black Temple was finally established as the state religion.
But before that, he must find a way to make the Dark Temple take root in the plane of Pain.
Even if he leaves the plane of Pain, new believers will continue to join him, providing him with the power of faith.
Only by gaining enough power of faith can he have the capital to fight the goddess of light.
But Allen probably didn't expect that because of the intervention of angels, the war would start much earlier than he expected, and Merlins, the only legendary mage in the Braden Kingdom, would also be trapped in the gap between the planes.
middle.
It can be said that the Braden Kingdom is now at a critical moment of life and death.
Once the line of defense fails to hold, history will go backwards.
Allen, and even Mage Tower's efforts in recent years will all be in vain.
…………
Pain plane, Coral Kingdom.
Emilia Williams is the daughter of a businessman. She has a wealthy and hard-working father, a beautiful and gentle mother, and two tall and handsome brothers. The family loves her so much that she grows up
Living a carefree princess-like life with no worries about food and clothing also developed her inexperienced, naive and ignorant character.
However, since the Iron-Blooded Grand Duke rebelled and the Coral Kingdom joined the war at the request of the King of Greyhawk Kingdom, Emilia's peaceful and happy life was shattered.
Her two brothers joined the army of the Coral Kingdom, put down their abacus and account books, picked up their swords and shields, said goodbye to their families and went to the battlefield.
And her father, after receiving the order from the local lord, joined the logistics team that provided supplies to the army.
As a result, Emilia and her mother are the only two people left at home.
The huge house suddenly became empty, which often made Amelia feel particularly deserted.
The first thing she had to do every day was to leave her house and go to the bulletin board in the town to pay attention to the list of the dead in this war. At the same time, she tried her best to inquire about the news about her father and brother from the people around her.
How are they doing in the military camp? Are they okay?
Especially when Emilia heard that the reason why the Iron-Blooded Grand Duke had won many battles and was so unstoppable was because he had received the assistance of a mysterious sect called the "Dark Temple".
This sect is different from all other sects in the plane of Pain. The clergy of the Black Temple truly possess extraordinary power.
The gods they believe in have given them powerful powers, allowing them to hide themselves on the battlefield, never feel tired, change their appearance, and even use magic to tear apart the souls of their enemies.
All in all, as people spread it by word of mouth, these rumors became more and more exaggerated, making Amelia even more worried about the safety of her family.
"These are simply a group of devils," she sighed silently in her heart more than once. "I just hope that my father and brother can ensure their own safety and not run into them head-on."
Later, Emilia learned from others that the terrifying thing about the Dark Temple was not only that they had a group of priests with extraordinary power, but also that they had a messenger who was so powerful that he was almost a god.
She heard someone say that this messenger was originally a divine servant serving the "God of Darkness". Because the "God of Darkness" was dissatisfied with the ignorance of the world, he sent this messenger to the mortal world to lead believers to attack
The city plundered the land, and then civilized the residents of each city, turning them all into believers of the dark god.
"You will definitely not believe how powerful the messenger of the Dark Temple is." One day, a soldier who broke his leg on the battlefield returned to the town where Emilia lived and talked to the surrounding residents.
He said, "He just waved his hand gently, and a black arch bridge appeared out of thin air on the battlefield, scaring the generals of the Greyhawk Kingdom into retreating.
"As you know, the gate of Salos City is made of solid steel. It is difficult for even a dozen trebuchets to break through it. However, the messenger of the Dark Temple only used one bow and one
The arrow melted into liquid and broke through the city defense in an instant.
"However, the most spectacular thing was the battle of attacking Castle Greyhawk. That was the real moment when the sky and the earth changed colors.
“I originally thought that the Greyhawk Kingdom had received strong support and could win the battle, but I didn’t expect that the envoy could completely overturn the situation of the battle with just his own strength.
"In the blink of an eye, the clear sky turned into clouds, and there was darkness between the sky and the earth. Through the oppressive clouds, I could even vaguely glimpse a desolate world, where ruins and scattered bones were everywhere.
, just like the underworld descending into the human world.
"When I saw such a scene, I even felt a strong pressure, wanting to prostrate myself on the ground and worship, and voluntarily become a believer of the God of Darkness.
"Whenever I think about what happened that day, I am glad that I broke my leg on the battlefield. Otherwise, I really don't know where I would have found the courage to fight against the messenger.
"..."
Emilia listened silently to what the soldier with a broken leg said, and became increasingly worried about the safety of her father and brother.
Now, Castle Greyhawk has been breached, and the villainous Iron-Blooded Grand Duke has been crowned as the new king, sitting majestically on the throne of the Kingdom of Greyhawk, but the reinforcements from the Coral Kingdom have not returned yet.
Emilia was worried that something bad had happened to them.
However, at this moment, something strange happened.
Emilia was surprised to see that a piece of paper suddenly appeared in front of her out of thin air, floating in the air like a white butterfly, and then slowly fell to the ground.
"Who is throwing notes?" She frowned slightly, thinking silently.
With curiosity, she bent down, picked up the note from the ground, and read the contents carefully.
I saw it said:
"Alan, come back quickly! Mr. Merlins is in trouble, we need your help. Selina Solomon"
