Chapter 2469 Everyone Has a Dark History

*************************************************** *************************************************

"Of course I know. Although I am a candidate for a foreign saint, it is a mascot used by the Holy See to win over other races and show that all races are one family. Even if Saya and Alice cannot become saints, they will not have their turn. I do it, but I’m not boasting. I still have some talent. Facing the invasion of hell and lack of manpower, I was entrusted with important tasks, so I know this secret.”

"That's it." I nodded, thought for a moment and then answered.

"We know about the Holy See Hill, but unfortunately there is nothing we can do to get it back."

"Even if you get that kind of thing back..." Aina seemed to think of something, sighed, and did not continue.

"Although this question may be outrageous, but even if there is only a glimmer of hope, how is Saya...how is she?"

"What?" I looked confused. Shouldn't she be dead long ago?

"It seems that you don't know what the inside story was back then." Seeing my reaction, Aina sighed again.

"What's the inside story? Can you tell me about it?" I became curious and asked in a nonchalant manner.

"It's not a secret now. It doesn't matter if you say it. Back then, the Holy See Mountain's plan to raid the hell world seemed reckless to outsiders, but the success rate was actually not low."

"Is there any backup plan left?"

"Yes, that is Saya. As the first candidate for a saint, and praised by the Holy See as the most talented saint in history, she is known as the inheritor of the Holy Light. She accepted the secret orders of the saint's grandmother and the pope, I deliberately chose to fall under the temptation of the Hell Clan."

"Wha...what?" Not only the little fox and I, but also the little ghost who had been sad and in pain were shocked by the news. They turned around from my arms and looked at Aina in shock.

"I...why didn't I know about this kind of thing? I only knew...that Sister Shaye disappeared later...could it be that..."

"You were still young at the time and could not tell you such a secret because of your emotions and reason. Even your father Alexander, who was the leader of the Crusaders, only knew that the Holy See had an adventurous plan to attack the hell world. He gave more detailed information I don’t know, so he, who has experienced many battles, thought this was a very dangerous strategy, and once spoke out against it. Of course, his opposition was of no use, but he just kept you here as a saint candidate, and did not follow everyone. Let’s sit on the Holy See Mountain and go to the hell world together. Considering that you are so young and have little strength, you will not be of use if you go there. The Pope and the Saint Grandma readily agreed. They thought you could escape this disaster, but they didn’t expect it. , your father still failed to protect you after all."

"No...no, father...he is trying his best to protect me and my mother. Don't allow you, a naughty fox, to say that to him!" the little ghost protested angrily.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like that. I just felt sorry for you. I've obviously escaped such a disaster, alas."

Aina showed an apologetic smile. This time, she was not awkward at all and apologized readily. At least she was more sincere than when she apologized to me and the little fox before.

"You are talking about such a disaster, can you tell us in detail about the plan for that year?"

"Okay, let me make a long story short. Maybe these past events will be a little helpful to the current situation in the Dark Continent, although I don't think so." Aina said after looking at the exit of the stone gate and estimating the remaining time.

"Back then, the fire of hell's invasion had been quietly ignited, and the world was gradually heading towards chaos under the temptation of demons. As the vanguard of the forces of hell, Bailey, the demon king of illusory reality with the most bizarre wisdom and ability in the hell world, Under your leadership, while sowing the seeds of chaos in the world, you are also tempting the strong to fall and be used by it, and Saya is one of them."

Hearing these unimaginable secrets from thousands of years ago, all we can do is peck at the rice and listen attentively.

Saya's devotion to the Lord and the Holy Light was so firm that after Belial came into contact with her, she immediately reported it to the Pope. "

"Isn't Belial's contact like this a little too unintended?" Hearing this, the little fox frowned, feeling that Belial's IQ would not be that low.

"Who knows, maybe she had the idea of ​​casting a wide net. Anyway, the small moves of the Hell Clan at that time were almost invisible to the Holy See. However, the Holy See may not have thought that the Hell Clan would invade so decisively. You know , even in the original sin war a long time ago, the demons were just trying to secretly control mankind, spread evil, and treat the world as their vassal and dining table, and did not attack openly."

After hearing this, the little fox nodded, accepting this statement. If this was the case, it made sense. Belial was the kind of guy who did whatever he wanted, was moody and unpredictable.

After noticing the actions of the Hell Clan, the Pope and the Saint Grandma felt that the Hell Clan's actions this time were very abnormal. They were afraid that the War of Original Sin would start again, so after much hesitation, they chose to let Saya accept Belial's temptation. , fell into hell as an undercover agent, and figured out the true purpose of the hell clan. "

"Is Shaye willing?" I couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know about this. I only learned some of the truth intermittently later when I was short of manpower and was entrusted with tasks. But according to my guess, Saya should agree."

"Why?"

"Little Alice should also know about Saya's life experience. It was discovered by the Pope in a small village that was attacked by monsters during his patrol. Hundreds of people in the entire village were not spared. Only Saya, who was still a baby at the time, was found. Because he was protected by the corpses of his parents, he was not discovered by the monsters, and was finally saved by the Pope. The qualifications shown by Saya also made the Pope exclaim that this was God's arrangement. Therefore, when Saya was only five years old, he was already saved by the Pope. I was selected as the first candidate for a saint, and I started to train carefully. It can be said that if nothing unexpected happened, little Alice and I were just foils, just because of the rules for selecting saints in the past, there must be three candidates, and we had to make up the number. That’s it, of course. In fact, this is not bad. Even if you can’t become a saint, having the title of a former saint candidate is still a very honorable thing. You will definitely be able to hold great power in the Holy See in the future.”

Aina said this in one breath, winking coquettishly, not concealing her purpose of becoming an alternate saint at all.

"It turns out that Saya still has such a life experience."

I mentally recalled the chilling and disgusting scene I saw on the Holy See Hill, thinking that it must not be as simple as Aina said. It’s just that as a foreign saint candidate, she must not know these things, so she asked It's no use either.

"But you haven't said it yet. What does this have to do with her consent?"

"Because Saya was rescued by the Pope, and after being discovered to have this powerful talent, she was raised by the Pope as a baby, so Saya seems to... well, just think of the Pope as a father-like existence. "

Aina curled her lips. Even a fool could imagine why the Pope would be so enthusiastic. In the Holy See, the Pope and the Saint share two major powers. Although the glory of the first-generation Saint is gone, the Saint’s status is gradually declining, but she still has With immeasurable power, the Pope did not dare to object to her decision easily.

Not to mention anything else, the holy knights of the Holy See are essentially the personal guards of the saint. They only exist to protect the saint. They can massacre cities and destroy countries for the saint's words. It has nothing to do with safeguarding fairness and justice in the world. It is important to remember that Paladins and Knights are two completely different identities, with the latter being the embodiment of fairness and justice.

Because of this, having a saint who is obedient in everything and respects him like a father, to the Pope, is tantamount to covering the sky with one hand and truly standing at the pinnacle of power in the Dark Continent.

"So, do you think she will nod her head and agree to the Pope's arrangement without hesitation?"

"That's right. Saya's character...how should I describe it? I think that in her gentleness, there is an indifference that is difficult for ordinary people to understand and detect. She seems to be outside the ordinary world, and sometimes she looks in a daze. It feels like As delicate and ethereal as a soulless doll, maybe she never cared about her own life or death, of course, this is just my feeling."

"That's not the case. You are speaking ill of Sister Saya. You are indeed a cunning vixen." As a loyal fan of Saya, the little ghost couldn't help but protest.

"Really?" Aina smiled mischievously: "I thought you had discovered my true face a long time ago, but I didn't expect to see it through now. Could it be that I had always had a very tall image before this? Ah, ah, ah, what a relief."

"You are so stinky and shameless." The articulate little ghost was completely defeated in front of Aina and could only defend with weak words.

"There's not much time left, let's get back to business." Aina's face straightened, but the little ghost almost cried sadly again. If you don't bully this idiot saint, will you die?

"Perhaps because of this relationship, Shaye listened to the Pope's words and agreed to become an undercover agent. At that time, there were absolutely no more than ten people who knew about this matter."

"and after?"

"Later, Saya fell and went to the hell world with Belial. I don't know what happened after that."

"Does Beryl believe in Saya that much?" I never dare to underestimate Beryl's IQ. If this is the case, and Saya has fallen, Beryl will take her home with confidence. That would be too much nonsense. .

"As the conspiracy devil, she will certainly not be simple. This is what happened later. With Saya as an undercover agent, the Pope was fully confident in his plan to raid the hell world. Although the saintly grandmother seemed to have doubts, Belial should not be underestimated. With her IQ, maybe she has some means to make the fraud come true and make Saya truly corrupt from body to mind, but the Pope has full confidence in Saya, saying that there will be no problem, and when the time comes, he will cooperate with Saya to catch him off guard."

"The result was a failure?"

"Yes, it failed. As I witnessed with my own eyes, Shaye did not respond to the Pope, which led to the failure of the entire plan."

"Perhaps Saya's work as an undercover agent has been seen through by Beryl a long time ago. After taking her back, she was immediately... killed." Thinking that these two people in front of me are both Saya's fans, I somehow put [being clicked] two Swallowed a slightly disrespectful word.

"Impossible. If Shaye has been killed, the Pope should know that there should be a special means of contact between the two. You, don't think too simply of the Pope. Maybe he is not as smart as Belial, but he can learn from a An ordinary rural priest crawls and wallows in the Holy See's many intrigues, intrigues, intrigues... Oh, no, it's a sacred and solemn test. He defeats his competitors and becomes the Pope. Don't doubt his IQ." "... ..." This change of mouth... seems a little late and a bit blunt. Is it intentional?

"So, this is actually a duel between the Pope and Belial, and Saya is just a show-off?"

"If you insist on understanding it this way, I can't help it." Aina shrugged with pretense of regret, but her expression was [Actually, you can use more sharp and vicious words to comment, it doesn't matter].

"I see, that's why you want to ask about Saya's whereabouts, right?"

"Well, logically speaking, Belial has achieved an absolute victory in this game with Saya as a chess piece, causing the Vatican to lose the last hope of counterattack. Then, Saya has become a useful player. The useless chess piece that I had passed is no longer useful. Beryl should not bypass her. However, I still hold a little hope in my heart. I hope that Beryl will suddenly show mercy and treat the chess pieces that she has taken advantage of. We might even put her back in the Holy See Mountain that crashed in the hell world and imprison her like a pet. This is already the best result."

"Even if this is the case, she cannot live for ten thousand years. Now nearly ten thousand years have passed."

"That's right, you shouldn't have such hopes." Aina also knew that she was stupid, but facing her former friend, if there was still a glimmer of hope, she would be willing to be stupid a hundred times more.

"Little ghost, what's wrong with you?" Turning around, he found that the little ghost was in a daze, as if he had thought of something incredible.

"Little ghost?!" I was a little afraid that this saintly girl with an awkward personality would get into trouble again, so I couldn't help but worry and hug her, shaking my shoulders slightly.

"Eh...Eh? I, what, just Xiaofan, what's the matter? I'm a very busy saint." The little ghost came back to his senses, a little flustered, and never even claimed to be in front of outsiders. The Saintess]’s agreement has been forgotten.

However, it didn’t seem like I was trying to get into trouble, so I felt relieved, and I didn’t care about the little ghost’s strangeness. When Aina arrived, she gave her a confused look.

"Okay, I've said all that needs to be said, and the time is almost up." Looking at Shimen, it has become very faint, and looks like it will disappear at any time.

"No, I don't want it." Upon hearing this, the little ghost immediately grabbed Aina's clothes nervously, showing a pitiful look like a kitten abandoned by its owner, which was unbearable.

"Be good, little Alice is the best." Even Aina, who has been bullying the little ghost for many years and has rich experience in dealing with her, seemed at a loss when facing the little ghost's gaze.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu , tears burst out of control, as if the whole person was made of water.

"Disgusting...disgusting, little Alice, when you say this, you are not asking me to...let me..." Aina still wanted to keep her calmness and calmness as much as possible, but she couldn't keep it up anymore, and her eyes quickly flickered with moisture. stand up.

"Shimen is about to disappear. Let's go. If you don't leave, it will be too late. Or do you want to leave her and stay here with me?" After wiping it hard, Aina pointed at me and asked seriously.

For a moment, I felt suffocated, fearing that the little ghost would make a choice that I couldn't accept.

"I...I don't want to, I absolutely cannot leave Xiaofan."

Seeing the little ghost shaking her head like a rattle, I finally breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did I realize that even though I had a deep relationship with the little ghost for more than ten years, I didn't have full confidence that I could defeat her and Aina. The bond between.

There is a subtle dividing line between life and death. Perhaps it is because you can only appreciate something after losing it. People after death always have a special attachment to people and things in life, even little ghosts are no exception.

"Go, go, how long will you continue to be willful? You are always chattering around me like a child who has not grown up, making noises, being competitive, and insisting on proving that you are an adult. You know it is very annoying. ?!"

Aina clenched her fists, suddenly pushed the little ghost away, pointed forward, and made a fierce expression that said I've had enough of you, get away from me.

"Woooo~~~oooooo~~~oooooooooo~~~~~~~" The little ghost looked at Aina in disbelief, taking one step, two steps, his expression was dull, numb, desperate, slowly Stepping back, the last word turned into a white light and penetrated into my chest.

Looking at Aina's still fierce expression, I smiled bitterly, is it necessary to do this?

Sorry.

Aina's sparkling eyes quietly cast an apologetic look, conveying her heartfelt words to me silently.

This child... should still be peeping now. I can't give her a glimmer of hope. She is a troublesome kitten. Maybe her personality will become more awkward because of this incident. However, with the dignity and honor of my Tianhu I beg you, please don't abandon this child because of this. She is still kind and cute in nature. Please take good care of her. I'm sorry to cause you trouble.

If this is the case, no matter how awkward her personality is, she is still my saint. How could I leave her alone? The bond between me and the little ghost is a thousand times deeper than you imagine. More than twice that.

However, I can't explain this kind of thing well, because I am now in the form of the Holy Moon Wise Wolf. In Aina's eyes, I am a woman and the little fox's lover.

However, the little ghost's personality will become more awkward because of this. It is inevitable, and it really caused me a lot of trouble. It took me more than ten years to finally get her to open her walls a little bit. A mind the size of a corner...
