221. The key to hell

Manraco waved his cane to illuminate the surrounding area to ensure that the shadow just now was no longer around him.

After confirming safety, his expression returned to calm and he slowly stated a fact.

"Cornier is dead."

There was a heavy pain on El-Melo's face, her cheek rested on Conil's body, and she said abruptly, "Where is your magic?"

"Divine magic can only heal, but it cannot revive the dead. That is something that only gods can do."

"God...exists?"

It's like I caught something.

El-Melloi slowly raised his sad eyes and stared at him.

Manraco narrowed his eyes, and he could hear the underlying meaning of El-Melloi just from the following sentence.

"I remember you said... God really exists..."

"And God has the ability to resurrect the dead..."

"So... can you get in touch?"

El-Melloi leaned down again and gently stroked Conil's haggard cheek with her hand.

Manraco's face was no longer calm.

"God..is not human!"

El-Melloi was noncommittal, and she retorted: "Whether it is a dirty goblin, an orc, or a noble elf, in the face of sufficient interests, they will make the right choice and choose regardless of race."

"The interests that move God are as high as mountains and as deep as the sea. With all due respect... you can't do it."

Manraco said bluntly that he did not receive any preferential treatment in his answers just because El-Melo was his lover.

The Stine Kingdom was established for more than three hundred years.

But the number of times I can impress God is only a handful of thirteen times.

It is enough to see the difficulty.

Ermelo paused for a while, and her eyes returned to Manraco. She walked over, her graceful body just pressed against him.

"I.."

"This territory..."

"Everything I have...you can take it."

Manraco's face was slightly moved, but he immediately returned to normal. He whispered in Ermelo's ear: "But you can't make a choice. This territory belongs to the Tobias family, and now...

It belongs to the evil dragon Joel Starla Igukuno. Speaking of Joel Starla Igukuno...don’t you think what Conil said before he died is strange?”

Before his death, Conil shouted the words "The great Joel Starla Igukuno praises you".

Was it done deliberately by the shadow, or was it really sent by the evil dragon?

No one can judge.

"Rather than revenge, I care more about Conil's recovery."

"As for what you said about not being able to make a choice, the territory belongs to the Tobias family. It is even more nonsense. This territory, including the entire Kingdom of Fei, originally belonged to the Nagtana family. I know, Fei Zhi

The royal family of the country has contacted the Stine Theocracy."

Manraco's expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly, "You are really well informed."

"Don't underestimate the power of the Nagtana family in the Kingdom of Fei! As long as I have the approval of my family, even if the temple conquers this territory with force, I will still have a way to appease the nobles. As for the civilians? Their muscles have not yet fully developed.

The brain cannot think about these things at all. They only need food and clothing, and they don't care if they have more faith."

"I admit...you are definitely a smart woman."

"Smart women are often terrible."

Ermelo described himself as terrifying, but Manraco did not refute.

"If you have a way to appease the nobles, you can indeed impress the gods with the faith of the people in this territory."

The entire territory of Duke Tobias Ridge has a population of nearly 100 million, and in addition to the area close to the orcs, even the ignorant orcs can contribute faith in the view of the Stine Theocracy.

This is a very valuable area. Ever since he ascended to the position of high priest in Manraco more than ten years ago, he has been planning for this "fruitful" land.

"Why not use the 'Bright Staff'?"

Manraco's face completely lost his composure, and he exclaimed: "How do you know about this cane!"

"This is the secret history of the Nagtana family. Once upon a time, we had a loyal knight who worked for your 'Resurrection Knight'. After that, the news was interrupted. We only know that the Brilliant Staff has the ability to revive."

"That is not the scepter of resurrection. On the contrary, it is the key to hell. Those who are resurrected need to absorb the blood of their loved ones to survive." Manlacco stated in a serious tone.

Obviously, the old dragon who promised to learn in half a month, Favron, broke the promise.

The dragon does not break appointments easily unless something unexpected happens.

But now Joel is not in the mood to care about his dragon, and he can't protect himself.

The exhausted dragon's body was barely maintaining balance by sitting still, and the dragon's eyes were almost closed together. It was obvious that he was trying to keep his spirits up.

"...Your Excellency Joel, maybe...you need to take a rest." Crassus reminded kindly.

But those simple words woke Joel up.

"Fortunately I didn't fall asleep!"

After looking at the surrounding environment, Joel breathed a sigh of relief.

His training lately... has been hell!

The space connected by the wind in the sky has not been determined. The world outside the Valley of Trial, the scorching magma, the deep cold sea water, or the world full of gold coins but out of reach. The invisible and unreachable feeling made his heart

Huge pain, and all he could do was delay entering it.

Others looked at Joel strangely, not understanding what he was doing. At the same time, another thing that made people suspicious was that the arrogant Igna did not return.

Antoine had asked Joel about this before, and his reply was "Establish a correct view of the dragon."

This is confusing.

But Crassus is certain that Lord Joel is in trouble.

He was in distress because of this. He who could not handle the troubles for Lord Joel was obviously not a qualified servant. In contrast, Laya, who had just taken a part-time job as a "personal servant", performed better than him in many things.

For example... the current Shaguo.

Raya was wearing a maid uniform and respectfully reported the situation to Joel.

"The Sha Guo was sold at auction and earned one hundred, thirty-five, three thousand, four hundred gold coins."

This is a share that has increased in value several times. Normally, the price of sand fruits carried by goblin airships fluctuates around three to four hundred thousand, but due to the auction, it has increased several times.

Raya did this easily, and not only that...she also processed the inventory of wealth for Joel, counting and calculating the wealth he owned, and even the contact with Foztel was made by her.

She is better than him, this is Crassus's judgment.

He fell silent, jealous and studying eyes emerging in his pupils.

Laya looked at Crassus a little strangely. She always felt that he had been looking at her strangely recently. Maybe there was something wrong with him.
