Chapter 121 - The Demoness Church’s Secret

“The Mage Guild President is your leader; who else is going to the Mage Guild?”

“The astrologer.”

“Oh, right! The astrologer… Who is the astrologer?”

Watson sat in the hall as he questioned Envy, who was kneeling in front of him.

It had been an afternoon since they left the hill where the Demoness Bandit Gang was located. Watson had already returned to Blackmoon Castle with a large group of men. At the same time, he sent the manor owners back to their respective residences to comfort them.

As soon as he returned to the castle, he ordered the guards to rest while he stayed in the hall to interrogate the Demoness Bandit Gang leaders he had just brought back.

He chose to separate the Demoness Bandit Gang leaders and interrogate them individually. That way, he could prevent them from colluding with each other. If there was anything that did not match during the interrogation, then someone must have lied.

After he returned, he took off the six-in-one Great Sin Mask and placed it in his spatial bag. The mask was as thin as a Cicada’s wing. Even if he had no direct contact with it and it was obstructed by space, it still affected his emotions—that was the power of platinum-tier equipment.

Even though the side effects were powerful, the results were not weak either. Overall, Watson was still delighted.

Envy was respectful when Watson questioned her. She lowered his head and said, “Young Master Watson, do you really not know the astrologer?”

The astrologer, Antonio, was also known as the Sage by the people in the kingdom. They said that he had existed since the establishment of the Holy Dragon Kingdom. He had helped the late King to conquer a large territory and witnessed the growth of the royal family’s descendants. Some people said that he had mastered the art of immortality. Many powerful mages in the kingdom were his disciples, and he had created hundreds of spells.

Antonio was also the idol of all the mages in the kingdom. Even if Envy was not a mage, she had heard of that person. She did not expect that Watson, a gold-tier mage and a master of some kind of powerful magic, did not know anything about Antonio. Perhaps the border count had not told him because he was an illegitimate son?

Envy was still confused when Watson asked, “Forget it, let’s not talk about that astrologer for now. Tell me—your leader is Pride, and she is also the Mage Guild President. What is going on?”

No matter how powerful the astrologer was, he was only a platinum-tier elite. Even if he had heard about Folson and wanted to take revenge for the Mage Guild, Watson was not afraid as he had the Great Sin Mask.

However, he still had his family and friends in Blackmoon Castle. He had to increase his strength quickly to protect himself, though that was not the most urgent matter at hand.

The most important issue at that moment was Pride.

The most urgent matter at the moment was still Pride. Watson did not expect that his extermination of the bandit gangs and the killing of Folson had actually amounted to the same thing. After he had killed Pride’s

subordinates two times over, so he knew that the Mage Guild President, Audrey, would not let him off that easily.

It gave him a headache.

He had thought that after he was a gold-tier elite, he would become the overlord at the border. As long as he did not provoke the border count, he would be able to do whatever he wanted. Then, he realized that the world was quite tiny. There were so many low-profile elites in a small place like the border.

“Young Master Watson, if you want to know about that, then we’d have to start with the origins of the Demoness Bandit Gang.”

Envy cleared her throat. “Young Master Watson, do you know that the Demoness Bandit Gang’s predecessor was the Demoness Church, which was once the kingdom’s official religion. Then, for some reason, the king ordered its destruction?”

“I know.”

“The reason the Demoness Church was exterminated was because of the former Queen—Lady Avril! Lady Avril was the border count’s sister. She had half-elf blood and was the most beautiful woman in the kingdom at that time. The King loved her dearly, and he swore that he would only marry one woman for the rest of his life. Unfortunately, some bad things happened later.”

Envy looked melancholic; she seemed a little angry when she said that.

“The ministers reported that Lady Avril studied evil magic. They said that she used humans for sacrifices, and they found many animal and human corpses in her room…”

Watson nodded. “Even though Avril was beautiful, she had a vicious heart, so the King endured the pain and killed her.”

His father, Edward, had told him some of those things during dinner, but he had not explained them in detail.

“Nonsense!” Envy shouted; she even frightened Watson.

When she realized that she had lost her composure, Envy quickly put on a straight face and took a deep breath to calm down. “I’m sorry, Young Master Watson, I didn’t mean to be disrespectful to you! Lady Avril is truly a kind person. I can guarantee that she has never done all those things. Those who said that she was evil were either jealous of her or wanted to frame her on purpose.”

“You seemed very familiar with Queen Avril.”

“That’s right; my real name is Denise. I am Lady Avril’s personal maid, well, I used to be,” Envy said. The scales on her face that symbolized the fire elves glowed with excitement.

Avril was born in the beautiful elven kingdom—the Forest of Eternity. The Moon Elves, the most powerful race there, were the pearl of all elves. As the Fire Elves were born with stronger combat abilities, they had been the Moon Elves’ guardians for generations. Denise and Avril had been good friends since they were young.

“That’s why I’m different from the other Demoness Bandit Gang leaders. Rebuilding the Great Sin Mask and restoring the glory of the Primordial Demoness are just empty words to them! I think they’re only trying to get the mask to increase their strength. They’re grateful for the small benefits promised by the King, so they set up a bandit gang to help monitor the border. They’re the King’s lapdogs. I usually cover myself with a cloak; I can’t be bothered to talk to them.”

When she mentioned her companions, Envy was quite scornful.

“The King? Promise?”

Watson had so many questions.

He felt as if his brain was not big enough. Was the King not the one who ordered his men to destroy the Demoness’ Church? Why did Envy make it sound as if the King had saved them?

“Young Master Watson, you did not know about that either?”

Envy was also a little surprised. As the border count’s son, how did Watson not know anything? That was the basis of the hatred between the border count and the King. Perhaps Watson was too young, so the border count did not tell him.

Envy decided not to think about that. She said, “Hmm… You can’t trust a man’s words, especially someone with so much power. The King had said that he would only marry Lady Avril for the rest of his life. Now, he has another woman! He might think that he saved us from the Demoness Church to repay the debt he owed to Lady Avril. But how can he make up for it when she’s already dead?”

‘Oh my God!’

Watson did not expect that he would be involved in the enmity between the King and the border count because he had annihilated a bandit gang.

“Goodness! I thought I’d cling to the border count’s legs, but I think I need to reconsider that.’

Perhaps the King would observe his every move. If he were to take on the Holy Dragon Kingdom at that point, it would be no different than a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

“Continue.” Watson scratched his head.

He still had many things that he did not understand. For example, how could Envy, as the Queen’s guard, only be at the silver tier? Why was Avril framed? Why was Envy so respectful to him?

“Then I’ll continue.”

Envy did not stand on ceremony. She thought that Watson was the border count’s illegitimate son; he would know about those things eventually. What else was there to hide?
