[Fourth Update]
The child's mother was tidying up the clothes in front of the door. When the demon walked into the village, she saw it a little late and didn't have time to snatch her child back. She could only watch as Neris walked to the child and squatted down.
In her eyes, Neris wasn't smiling. Was that three-headed monster going to eat her son? She wanted to rush up and snatch her child back, but her legs seemed to be filled with lead and she couldn't move a single step.
Neris almost crawled on the ground, unable to make her eyes level with the child. The child held the cat and looked up at Neris's huge head. He was very interested in the horns on Neris's head.
"What's your name?" Neris asked softly. Her ability to control her voice didn't need to be described, and the child wasn't frightened by her.
"Geigs."
"Well, Geigs, can I ask you a question?"
The village was silent. Some villagers looked out of the windows, not daring to make any noise. The villagers were afraid of stimulating the demon and hurting the child.
"Okay, but who are you?"
"Me? I'm a demon. "Neris patiently said to the child.
"What is a demon?" The child reached out and wanted to touch Neris's horn, but he couldn't reach it.
What is a demon? Neris was speechless by the child's question. She thought for a moment and said, "A demon is a bad person."
"You're lying to me." The child was angry. He muttered and put the kitten on the ground. The kitten was so scared that its fur stood on end. Now that it was free, it ran away.
Of course, Neris wouldn't make things difficult for this weak creature that couldn't even be considered a magical beast. She smiled and said, "I didn't lie to you. I came here to kill the preacher in this village. It's … the priest. "
"Okay, okay!" The child clapped his hands and pointed to a white building at the end of the village. "The priest is there. They all live in white houses and don't farm."
"Thank you, little guy. This is for you. It's a gift from the demon." As Neris spoke, she picked out a small statue with her fingernails and handed it to the child. Then she stood up and waved at the two Great Demons.
The demons quickened their pace and rushed toward the white house.
Seeing that the demon had gone far away, the village woman standing at the door staggered out, picked up her child, and fled into the yard.
Salin, who was following behind the Evil Demon army, shook his head when he saw the situation. According to the records, in ancient times, ordinary farmers would not be so afraid of demons, right?
Back in the day, there had also been mutated fiends who had lost their minds and ran out to harm humans. But back then, the farmers would gather together to hunt down fiends. A few dozen farmers could beat an ordinary demon to death. If there were retired soldiers, three to five of them could capture a level-nine demon alive and hand it over to the nobles.
According to those records, the humans of that time were probably born as professionals.
Salin knew that Neris wasn't in the mood to mess around when dealing with ordinary people. The people she tortured and toyed with were all experts among professionals. So when Neris went to ask the child, Salin was not worried.
On the other side of the village, in a white two-story building, a level-one priest was preaching to a few villagers, telling them the story of the Sacred Code. Preaching in this village was very difficult. The villagers did not even need to build a formal church. Only a few unscrupulous fellows were willing to come and listen to the priest preaching. Of course, there were also a few devout believers, which was something that the priest was very pleased about.
As long as there was a believer, after this person returned home, they would constantly instill the idea of faith in their family. As time went on, more people would be moved to join.
As for the idlers, their goal was a free dinner after listening to the preaching. After the war, everyone's life became hard. It was worth wasting an afternoon to eat a dinner with meat.
Neris's Evil Demon army came to the front of the white building. She found that even the demons behind her could not enter the building, let alone herself. Neris cut a gap in the wall with the sword of laws, then grabbed the front wall of the building with four hands and pulled backward. The whole wall collapsed. In the midst of the smoke, Salin released a cleansing spell to suppress the dust.
The priest who was preaching was a level-one priest. He was talking excitedly. Suddenly, the wall in front of him disappeared, and a tall demon appeared outside, looking at him with dark eyes.
The priest opened his mouth, and suddenly felt his throat was hoarse.
Of the ten believers who were listening in front of him, six screamed and fled to the door behind them. The other four stood up and flashed behind the priest with ugly expressions.
Neris looked at the nervous priest. Salin suddenly shared his perception with her. In Salin's eyes, more than ten miles away from the village, a group of knights in golden armor surrounded a dozen mages. The old mage was observing the village with a device similar to an alchemy telescope.
Isn't the distance a bit too far? Even if I kill this priest, the followers behind won't arrive immediately. If he were to kill all of them, the people following him would probably pretend that they didn't see anything and continue to follow him.
What if I turn around and kill them? That's a way, but if these people retreat, will I and my master chase them all the way back to Daliang?
"You! What do you want to do … "The priest saw the demon in a daze and called out bravely.
"Ah? Ha, priest, I want to pray to God. I don't know if you will listen? " Neris laughed again. This priest was done for. If she kept messing around here, the people behind her would not come to save him. At worst, she would find another town. There must be a mage in the town who was worth saving, right?
The priest swallowed and wanted to say to Neris, I don't want you to destroy my house so domineeringly …
But Neris politely asked if he could listen to the prayer to God, which he could not refuse. If he refused a person who wanted to pray to God, his days in the Holy See would be over.
"Alright, lost … believer, tell me your name."
"Well, priest, I am not a believer. I just want to tell the God of Light that he, this stupid pig, better die early. His divine fire is extinguished, his divinity is broken, his Holy Kingdom collapsed, and his body was eaten by me. I feel disgusted when I see him spreading his faith everywhere. What kind of faith does this kind of trash deserve to spread? Even the stray dogs in the city of my master are nobler than him. At least he won't go to people's homes and force people to listen to him. Priest, do you understand? "
Neris said in one breath. The priest was stunned.
Finally, when Neris called him, he pointed at Neris's huge nose and said angrily, "Blasphemous person …"
"I'm not a human, I'm a demon!" Neris corrected the priest's words calmly.
In the shared perception of Neris and Salin, the golden warriors on the hillside did not move, and the mages did not have the intention to approach the village. Neris was a little disappointed.
"Demon! Evil guy, how can you tarnish the glory of God! " The priest thought he was dead and became irritable. He pointed at Neris and said angrily, "It's God who created everything, it's God who gave human happiness, it's God …"
"It's your mother, it's your mother who gave you life, it's you who gave you a family, it's your mother who gave you everything. What does this have to do with God? Is God your father? " Neris's words had always been vicious. Normal people would be angry, not to mention that she directly insulted the supreme existence in the priest's heart.
The priest jumped up and said loudly, "Without God, this world is dark. Without God, all kinds of disasters will come. People will not have enough to eat and wear. You demon, don't confuse people! "
"Idiot, on this Myers Continent, the poorest is the Tanggulas Empire controlled by your Vatican, and the richest is the Qinyin Empire that forbids preaching. What did God give you Tanggulas people? "
"The wrath of God has fallen on the land of Qinyin. The light of God will shine on the whole world! "The priest straightened his neck and refuted with a trace of pride. The army of the Tanggulas Empire had entered the north of Qinyin. This was something that the entire Vatican knew.
"If you don't believe in him, you will destroy other people's homes. Tsk tsk, this is God, what a bastard."
"That's because you blaspheme God, and God will also be angry!"
"What you said is somewhat reasonable. At that time, humans did defeat many Gods, and they were all stronger than the God of Light. Otherwise, it would not be the turn of trash like the God of Light to preach in Myers Continent. Don't you know how Myers Continent got its name? That's because of Goddess Myers, not the bullshit God of Light. "
"I will fight with you!" The priest spoke indiscriminately, waved his fist and was about to rush up. A believer behind him pulled his sleeve, exposed his head, and said to Neris, "Except for the God of Light, there is no existence that can be worthy of the title of God. Myers is just a liar, not a God at all. "
"How do you know?" Neris didn't mean to make a move at all. The person in front of her could be pinned to death with just a finger. Her purpose was just to lure the people behind to come to the rescue.
"This is what God himself said, there is an oracle." The believer replied calmly.
Neris didn't understand, and after thinking for a while, she understood the believer's meaning. The demon behind her burst into laughter, and the strong and huge sound waves made the small white building that had lost a wall totter.
"You believe what he said?" Neris asked the believer helplessly.
"Of course, God never lies." The believer's face looked firm, and there was no longer the initial fear.
"How do you know that God doesn't lie?" Neris asked curiously. How did an ordinary believer end up with a God? Even the demon would know about this kind of thing.
"Because God said that he wouldn't lie," the believer replied.
