Inside the quiet house, Gruul sighed softly as he watched Irula's figure gradually disappear into the distance.
In the room, a pale white candle burned in Silence. The burning light shone on Gruul's face, making him look uncertain.
"Your Highness, is there something wrong?"
Beside him, a servant looked at Gruul's expression and couldn't help but ask.
"It's nothing." Gruul turned around, and his expression instantly returned to normal. He gently shook his head, indicating that he was fine.
Seeing this, the servant beside him didn't think much and just nodded in Silence. Under the guidance of the servant beside him, he prepared to go down and change his clothes.
During the several months of fleeing, Gruul and his servants hadn't received any training. Now that they were in a safe place, it was time to take a good rest.
Time passed quickly, and soon, it was late at night.
Late at night, when everyone around him had fallen into a deep sleep, Irula, who had already fallen asleep, gently walked out of a room.
He gently walked to the outside of Gruul's room and looked at the dim room inside. There was even breathing coming from inside, and he couldn't help but sigh softly. His expression looked a little complicated.
"Is everything done?" A voice came from somewhere.
Irula raised his head and looked in the direction of the voice, just in time to see a figure walking in from outside.
It was a tall middle-aged man, wearing the same dark clothes. The mysterious mark on his face was somewhat similar to the one on Irula's face, but also somewhat different.
Compared to Irula, this person's majesty was heavier, and there was a faint murderous aura on his body, which was daunting.
"It's done."
Irula sighed softly, "With a sufficient amount of the Crystal Flower's medicinal liquid, even a Mammoth Beast would be knocked over. As long as one drinks it, they will immediately fall into a deep sleep and won't wake up for at least a few days."
"Good job." The middle-aged man nodded, "Leave the rest to me."
"I have already informed Veruba's guards. In a while, they will send people over to search, and then they will naturally find Prince Gruul who is still unconscious."
"At this point, this matter has nothing to do with us. We will not be stained with the blood of the royal descendants, and no one will know that we have been here before …"
"That's good." Irula let out a sigh. His expression seemed to be a little conflicted and doubtful, "Just that, Hill, is it really alright for us to be like this …"
"There's no need for unnecessary baggage …" The man named Hill looked at Irula. He seemed to be able to understand the hesitation in the old man's heart from his conflicted expression, "The kingdom's war has been going on for long enough, so long that we have already started to grow old."
"This dispute has reached a point where we have no choice but to settle it."
He slowly walked forward and walked to the window of the room. Looking at the Silent Gruul inside, he said softly, "From the perspective of a Tamru person, everything we do is to end the dispute in the Tamru Kingdom as soon as possible. From the perspective of a dark priest, everything we do is for the sake of spreading the light of our Lord to the world. "
"His Royal Highness has already promised that after he ascends to the throne, he will loosen the past restrictions, allowing us to freely build churches in the kingdom and enjoy the rights we are supposed to enjoy."
"No matter what, we have a reason to do this."
When he finished speaking, he closed his eyes, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and the expression on his face was calm and sacred, "For my lord Carlin …"
"I understand." The expression on Irula's face gradually became firm. Looking at Hill in front of him, he also made a gesture of prayer. All the hesitation and reluctance in his heart disappeared at this moment, leaving only piety and calmness.
A faint dim light spread from his body. Bits of afterglow shone on his body, making him look like a messenger of God. At first glance, one could not help but feel a kind of reverence, feeling the light of the Lord of Darkness.
At this moment, a light sound suddenly came from outside, accompanied by banging sounds, as if someone was walking in from outside.
"Someone is here to pray so early?"
Listening to the sound of the bell and the clear footsteps coming from outside, both of their faces revealed a surprised expression.
The church was naturally open to the public. Not only would it be open to the public on weekdays, but it would also hold some activities at regular times. It would even distribute food to some victims of disasters in order to win over believers.
At this moment, calculating the time, it was actually time for the church to open, it was just that no one usually came so early.
"I'll go take a look."
Irula said as he stood up gently.
This time, in order to carry out this operation and to conceal some things, the original priests here had been temporarily transferred away. The prayers and sacrificial rites for the next few days were all arranged by Irula.
"Go ahead, I'll keep an eye here," Hill said without turning back.
Scheer said without turning her head. Her eyes were still fixed on the room in front of her, looking at the figure lying on the bed.
Looking at this scene, Irula did not say a word. He turned around and walked towards the hall outside the church.
After arriving at the hall, Irula's eyes lit up when he saw the person who had just arrived.
It was a very handsome young man wearing a luxurious black robe embroidered with faint silver complex patterns.
His soft long hair hung down casually, and on this young man's body, a unique temperament was revealed in Silence, which made one's eyes light up at a glance.
"He's a noble, and not an ordinary noble."
Looking at the young man in front of him, Irula's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but smile.
For the high and mighty gods, regardless of whether it was a lowly slave or a noble noble, there was no difference, and they could naturally be treated equally.
But for the priests of the gods, it was impossible for them to do this.
Spreading the teachings of the gods, organizing activities, helping disaster victims, and developing believers — every step of this required a lot of money.
Although on the surface, in reality, compared to ordinary civilians, the believers of the nobles who could fork out a large amount of donations and provide all kinds of help were of course more important.
Looking at the young man who was walking slowly in front of him, Irula had a kind smile on his face, holding a dark gray badge in his hand, and walked straight up to him. "Hello, how can I help you?"
"Hello." The young man looked very polite, and he had a gentle smile on his face. "Please forgive me for disturbing you. It's my first time here, may I take a look around?"
"Of course." Irula nodded with a smile on his face. "In fact, if you don't mind, I can even introduce you personally."
"Then I'll have to trouble you." Adil smiled, looking very interested.
Of course, he wasn't faking it.
After coming to this world, this was the first time he walked into a church of a god, and it would be a complete lie to say that he wasn't interested.
That was why he came here early in the morning. On one hand, he wanted to see if the group from yesterday was still here, and on the other hand, he was very interested in this church.
With all kinds of thoughts in his mind, not long after, he looked at Irula in front of him, and his eyes gradually became deep.
"Very strong!"
Looking at Irula in front of him, this was the first thought that came to Adil's mind.
Limited by the current situation, he couldn't tell how much power Irula had.
This was also caused by the special nature of the priests.
As a priest of the gods, the power of the priests came from the gods, and they had a great deal of concealment. It was very difficult to determine how much power a priest had before they actually attacked.
However, even if he couldn't tell for sure, Adil could feel that there was an endless, unstoppable power coming from Irula's body, and it gave Adil a faint sense of danger.
"Roughly equivalent to the peak of a Great Knight. As a priest, he might be slightly weaker in actual combat, but in this church, his power might even be stronger."
Feeling the sense of danger that Irula gave him, Adil maintained his smile on the surface, but he thought in Silence.
The peak of a Great Knight, converted to the power of this world, was equivalent to the peak of a Bronze Knight, and was already considered an extremely powerful force.
The father of this body of Adil's was the strongest in a traditional knight family, but his power was only at the level of a Bronze Knight.
"Such a powerful priest. Why didn't he stay in one of the major parishes in the country? Why did he come to a remote city like Veruba?"
Looking at Irula's back view in front of him, Adil shook his head inwardly, "There is also this familiar power …"
From Irula's body, Adil felt a very familiar power, one that he had experienced many times in a certain world.
Soul Power.
Right now, what flowed through Irula's body was the Soul Power that Adil had felt many times in the Fog World.
However, compared to the Soul Power that was purely used to sign blood contracts and strengthen contracted beasts in that world, the Soul Power on this priest's body was much purer, and carried a strong imprint that left a deep mark on Irula's body.
This discovery gave Adil a thought, and he fell into deep thought.
They walked in the church, and soon arrived at the two sides of the hall.
Huge murals were displayed on both sides of the hall, giving people a very shocking sense of appreciation.
At the very beginning of the murals, a short man was holding a small baby, carefully caring for it.
"This is?"
Looking at the murals before him, Adil stood where he was, a little surprised.
"This is the moment of the birth of the great god, the Dark Lord," Irula said after praying in Silence, maintaining a kind smile on his face.
