Nok looked up nervously and looked around, feeling guilty as a thief.
After making sure that he couldn't see the third party, he whispered to Leo.
"Remember that rag we snatched from Althanos?"
"Rags? Althanos? Oh! That talking rat!"
Leo remembered who Arthanos was, wasn't he the rat who called himself the Lord of Death?
"Yes, that's the mouse."
Nok responded smoothly, and then realized that he was being led astray.
"Bah, bah, bah, what a rat, rag, that rag!"
"Oh, you mean that piece of rag that can hide the breath."
"Yes, that thing is not simple, it is part of the [Destiny Tapestry],
It is a [fragment of the tapestry of destiny]. Now you know how precious it is! "
Leo scratched his head, still looking puzzled: "After all, what is the tapestry of destiny?"
Well, Nok was stunned.
After working on it for a long time, it turned out that Leo had no idea what the [Destiny Tapestry] was.
Fortunately, he was afraid that Leo would get too excited and shout.
As a result, I just wasted my expression and blinded the tense atmosphere.
Nok lay directly on the bed and explained weakly.
"[The Tapestry of Destiny] is said to be an artifact used by the goddess of destiny to control the fate of the world.
In order to fight for it, the gods launched a war.
As a result, the Goddess of Fate secretly took the [Destiny Tapestry] and escaped from the God Realm.
Incarnate as the Witch of Destiny in the human world, and use the [Destiny Tapestry] to create the profession of witch.
Use witches to rule the human world.
And that era was the Age of Witches.
When the age of witches came to an end, the Holy Lord defeated the Witch of Destiny, thinking that he had finally ended the witch's inheritance.
Unexpectedly, the goddess of destiny was three sisters, and the transformed witches of destiny were also three.
The Holy Lord only defeated one.
The other two Witches of Destiny took the opportunity to sneak attack on the Holy Lord, trying to take away the [Tapestry of Destiny].
Unexpectedly, the twelve apostles of the Holy Lord blocked their sneak attack and bought time for the Holy Lord to counterattack.
But it happened that at that moment, the gods arrived and wanted to compete for the [Tapestry of Destiny].
In the melee, the [Tapestry of Destiny] was torn into pieces, and the youngest of the witches of destiny,
He took the opportunity to wrap up most of the fragments of the [Tapestry of Destiny], opened the space channel and escaped.
The remaining fragments of the "Tapestry of Destiny" are scattered in the world due to the fight among the gods.
Later, the gods discovered that the fragments of the [Destiny Tapestry] they grabbed were not enough to change the gods' fate.
Only then did he stop.
But in the church's records, the fragments of the "Tapestry of Destiny" have magical powers.
Able to control human destiny and create strange treasures.
Or, the ability to destroy a certain subspace.
Therefore, the church has never given up looking for the fragments of the "Tapestry of Destiny".
At the same time, those witches hiding on the mainland,
He is also waiting for an opportunity to find the whereabouts of the fragments of the [Tapestry of Destiny].
It is said that there is a rumor among the witches that as long as the [Tapestry of Destiny] is gathered together,
You can resurrect the three witches of destiny.
If the three witches control the [Tapestry of Destiny], they can put an end to the remaining gods. "
Having said this, Nok smiled nervously and showed off to Leo:
“And what we snatched from Althanos were the fragments of the [Tapestry of Destiny].
It is still one of the batch controlled by the Witch Alliance.
Therefore, you and I can understand the skills to advance from it,
We don't need inheritance to advance to the gold level.
As for why I suddenly knew that those things were fragments of the "Tapestry of Destiny",
That's because after Sophia and I fell into coma last time, didn't we bleed?
At that time, Sophia's blood was mixed with my blood and stained on the fragments of [Tapestry of Destiny].
absorbed by it.
Maybe because Sophia is a woman, it mistakenly thought that Sophia's blood was the blood of a witch.
So it was activated, and because Sophia's blood was mixed with my blood,
Therefore, a lot of information was fed back to me. I guess Sophia must also have received a lot of information.
But even if I don’t know whether she knows that the thing is on me and whether it is the same as me,
I know this thing is a fragment of the [Destiny Tapestry].
Leo, it’s not that I’m too cautious.
Sophia disappeared inexplicably and became our enemy.
I'm afraid that if I accidentally kill Sophia one day, Sophia will fall out with us.
When the time comes, if the secret of [Destiny Tapestry] is exposed,
We will be the target of public criticism.
The Witches Union will not let us go, and the church will also ask for it from us.
If we don't give it, we will probably be regarded as traitors.
Therefore, only we ourselves know about this.
Therefore, I want to ask you, have you decided how to deal with the matter between you and Sophia? "
Leo suddenly heard so many secrets and heard Nok's questions.
My heart suddenly felt a little messy.
"Why, do you miss me..."
Although Leo didn't say the next words, he made the gesture of wiping his neck.
Nok suddenly couldn't help but smile.
"I said Leo, please don't be so murderous.
Although Sophia is a bit selfish, Sophia treats you with all her heart.
Could you please stop being so cruel?
What I mean is, if you don't mind, I will officiate your wedding.
In the end, we have to live and struggle together and give others a status.
It would also put her at ease. If you can have another child, you will have something to rely on in your later years, right?
Besides, if we can continue to develop smoothly, I will become a cardinal in the future.
And you, after all, must be the leader of the knights in the area under my jurisdiction.
Plus Milady, the future saint-level master.
Under our protection and guidance, your children can inherit our mantle.
The empire we have built always needs others to inherit it.
Milady is now a nun, but with her character, I'm afraid she won't be able to bear this loneliness.
Unable to abide by the church's rules and regulations.
You will definitely not be able to take over my mantle in the future.
Inherit the Cathedral of Reims.
But if you and Sophia have a child,
Under my guidance, not to mention inheriting my future position,
But taking over Reims Cathedral will not be a problem. "
Nok persuaded him earnestly, but Leo persuaded him in turn.
"Since you want an heir so much, why don't you just give birth to one yourself?
Although people in your church cannot get married, it does not prevent you from having illegitimate children.
As long as you don't say it's your child in public, no one can do anything to you.
I haven't seen those cardinals put their illegitimate children in their brothers' names, saying that they are their nephews.
Then bring them to church for training.
You can do this too. "
Nok's face suddenly darkened.
"Leo, don't mention the illegitimate child, we are still friends!"
Uh, okay, Leo forgot, Nok himself was an illegitimate child.
He is also the illegitimate son of the royal family.
Qualified to inherit the throne of the Lionheart Kingdom!
"Sorry, I forgot."
Leo apologized honestly, but there was not much sincerity.
Because, he could see that Nok was just unhappy with the topic of illegitimate children.
Not that I'm angry with him.
"Okay, I won't mention the illegitimate child, and you shouldn't mention the marriage.
Let me think about this. Don't rush it, it's fine now.
Let’s talk about [The Tapestry of Destiny]. "
Leo changed the subject, and Nok didn't want to pester him.
Nok understood that he had knots in his mind, and Leo didn't either.
Sherlock Holmes is Leo's heart.
If he couldn't get out of this knot, it would be impossible for him to get married and have children.
Being able to accept Milady as a junior was for the sake of her dead mother.
"Now we have a copy of the fragments of [The Tapestry of Destiny]. Most of them must be in the Witches' Union.
This is also the reason why they were able to hide for so many years without being discovered by the church.
In addition to the Witches' Union, there are others scattered throughout the world, undiscovered and gathering dust.
Do you still remember the level-less mission released by the Adventurer’s Guild in Tarn Village?
I went to the Adventurer's Guild once after returning from the royal capital and noticed that the mission was still there.
And a bounty has been added.
It can be seen that the person who posted the task knows what he is looking for.
Well, there is a high chance that this person is from the Witches Alliance, and a small chance that he is the same as us.
He is the one who accidentally discovers the fragments of the [Tapestry of Destiny].
But no matter what, this person has at least one fragment of the [Destiny Tapestry] in his hand.
Otherwise he would not issue such a mission.
We assume this person is not from the coven, but a lucky person like us.
So, how many such lucky people are there on the mainland?
Therefore, as long as we take the time, we can collect it secretly.
Even if our power develops to a certain level, such as the red archbishop.
We can completely cover the sky in our own territory and search secretly.
At worst, if the church finds out, they will come up with a commission.
After all, once the status reaches a certain level, the church does not dare to force it.
Leo, we have no background or inheritance, and we want to become stronger.
You can only rely on yourself.
Now, the fragments of [The Tapestry of Destiny] are in your hands, so hurry up and understand them.
Be careful not to let outsiders find out. If you trust Sophia, let her meditate with you.
It's not convenient for me to carry it with me now. You don’t need to be too precious about it, otherwise it will be easy for others to see the flaws.
Disguise it as a sweat towel, handkerchief, whatever.
Except for the witches of the Witch Union, no one can see its magic at a glance.
If you meet a witch, you can only pray that you find her first.
Otherwise, this thing will definitely attract more witches. "
When Leo thought about attracting a group of "Annas" because of a rag,
I couldn't help but shudder.
He never wanted to touch such a thing as a witch again in his life.
What a ripper monster, Leo doesn’t want to become that ugly again!
However, it is still necessary to become stronger.
It turns out that the reason why I became stronger was because of that piece of rag.
He thought it was because he broke through the limit at a critical moment that he was able to advance through the ranks.
But I didn't expect that it was influenced by the fragments of the [Destiny Tapestry] and gained inheritance.
No wonder he suddenly understood a secret that day and then advanced.
Leo touched the rag stuffed in his arms.
No wonder after being arrested that day, Nok suddenly stuffed this thing on himself.
It turned out that he had already made arrangements.
Otherwise, this thing stays on Nok,
Just in case some wild woman discovers its extraordinary quality and steals it.
Wouldn't it be a bad thing to create new witches?
"Nock, what are you talking about? Do you want to help Milady understand it?"
Leo suddenly asked.
Nok was stunned when he heard this, and then decisively refused.
“No, this child has gone through great changes, although he seems to be fine now.
But there is sorrow and darkness hidden in the heart. It’s easy to be misled by the [Destiny Tapestry],
If she becomes a new witch, she will be in trouble.
Until this child gets out of her inner haze, it's better not to let her know about the existence of this thing for the time being.
Don’t forget, the villagers of Tarn Village are still there, and so is Arnos Fried.
Although we are not sure who is the murderer of Makina.
But it must be related to Tarn Village and Fred.
What if this child is eager for revenge and directly comprehends some evil magic?
Then run to Tarn Village to destroy the village.
So what should we do?
Protect her from the world? Haha, are we worthy?
Stand on the world's side and destroy her, the evil witch?
Can you do it? "
Nok patted Leo on the shoulder and said, "Just wake up.
Milady is a divine favorer. Even without this thing, her strength is still improving by leaps and bounds.
What bothers me now is how to restrain her from using too much force.
Look at what she did in the square today.
If she hadn't beaten up a flying dragon in full view of everyone,
They can’t find any excuse to beat you up!
Therefore, what Milady needs now is to restrain herself and hide her power.
rather than promotion.
The people who need improvement are me and you, and Sophia.
Only when we become stronger can we protect the people and things we care about!
Now that Reims Cathedral is in hand, this is our home.
Unlike the church in Tarn Village, this place will be our forever home.
I don’t want to give it up, and I don’t want it to be taken away from me again.
So, let’s become stronger together, Leo! "
Leo, who was so excited by Nok's words, used a smile unique to a forty-year-old man,
Responded Nok.
"Okay! For the sake of our homeland, let's become stronger together!"
