Chapter 205 Is the Pope Jealous? I'm Here to Beat up the Nun!

"What's the matter with you coming to see me this time?"

Edith gently picked up the black tea and took a sip, then looked at Su Xuan lazily and asked.

"I have something to ask you." Su Xuan said directly.

Edith's dark red eyes gently glanced at Lucia, who was sitting next to Su Xuan, and she seemed to have guessed his intention.

"Speak directly, there is no need to beat around the bush between us."

She said, putting down the tea cup in her hand.

"About the mysterious death of a purple-robed priest in the ancient city of Black Rose." Su Xuan said directly, "I am investigating the matter."

As the real person in charge of the ancient Black Rose City, it is impossible for Edith to not know everything that happens in her territory.

After all, the purple-robed priest occupies a pivotal position in the Holy See of Light. His official rank is at least equivalent to that of a count, and as the manager of all the light churches in the ancient city of Black Rose, the cause of his death cannot be easily concealed.

"I have been very busy recently, and I don't have an in-depth understanding of the details of this matter, but I can give you the power to investigate." Edith said to Su Xuan, "The body of the purple-robed priest was placed in the Black Rose. In a morgue in the ancient city, you can go and investigate at any time."

"Thank you."

Su Xuan expressed his gratitude. Edith's words undoubtedly gave him great convenience in the ancient city of Black Rose.

"Oh, right."

Su Xuan took out the demon-eating insect from his backpack and asked Edith, "What impression do you have of this creature? Who might be able to raise them?"

"Demon-eating insects?"

Edith glanced at the black bugs wrapped in golden light and said calmly, "There is a prince who likes to study these kinds of creatures. I remember his name is Prince Tedes, and he is the king's younger brother."

"The king's biological brother?"

Su Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly and he fell into deep thought.

"It's best not to provoke him," Edith reminded. "He is the third most powerful man in the Kingdom of Stars, and the current one...is not strong enough to compete with him."

"Um...Okay, I understand."

After Su Xuan got the answer he wanted, he left Edith's mansion with Lucia.

After they left, Edith picked up the tea cup and blew lightly, causing the tea to ripple. She handed it to her lips, but her movements paused at this moment.

She thought for a moment, with a faint glimmer in her deep eyes.

Then, Edith gently put down the teacup and tapped the edge of the teacup with her fingertips.

And just after this action, a mysterious woman shrouded in black mist appeared next to her, wearing black armor, as if she was a messenger coming out of the darkness.

"Master, what are your orders?" The woman's voice was low and respectful.

"Go and protect him secretly, he is very important." Edith ordered the woman.

"As you command." The woman turned into a burst of black mist and disappeared into the air instantly.

Edith then calmly picked up the tea cup and drank the remaining half cup of black tea in one gulp.

…

"Let's go to the Black Rose Ancient City now."

Su Xuan looked at the sky and saw that it was just dark now, so it was not too late.

"Um."

Lucia nodded slightly, her golden-red eyes hidden under the white gauze flickering slightly, as if she was thinking about something.

Just as Su Xuan was about to activate the teleportation array and head to the ancient city of Black Rose, Lucia suddenly asked, "Do you have a good relationship with the Baroness of the Star Kingdom?"

"It's okay."

Su Xuan carefully thought about his relationship with Edith. As the succubus who created Ifusa, Edith was willing to tell him so much, mostly because of Evessa's existence.

Lucia looked at Su Xuan with a little doubt and concern in her tone, "How much do you know about her?"

Su Xuan pondered for a moment, and then replied: "I don't know much about her, maybe not as well as I know you."

He only knew that Edith was a succubus who escaped from the abyss, and her people hated her. In addition, Edith is also the owner of Star Calling Castle, Red Maple Leaf Territory, and Black Rose Ancient City, and openly supports a crown prince in his fight for the throne.

He knew nothing else about Edith, such as her motives.

After hearing Su Xuan's words, Lucia's eyes narrowed slightly.

Do you know me well?

Then, she warned: "In that case, it's best to avoid using her power as much as possible. Her existence always makes me feel a little uneasy."

"oh……"

Su Xuan nodded, with many thoughts in his mind. Lucia seems to be suspicious of Edith. Is it because of the antagonistic relationship between the Holy See and the devil?

Of course, he must be more inclined to Lucia, because Lucia is a member of the guild. Although Edith and Evesa are closely related, they are two different individuals.

As the white light of the teleportation array flashed, he and Lucia arrived at the ancient city of Black Rose.

The environment of the Black Rose Ancient City made Su Xuan a little concerned. There was a faint fragrance in the air. In the center of the city, a huge black rose is blooming with dark purple light, which is breathtaking.

"You two, please come with me."

Not long after Su Xuan and the others arrived at the Black Rose Ancient City, a man wearing dark gold armor appeared in front of them. Su Xuan's eyes moved slightly, and he lightly scanned the other party and obtained the other party's information.

"My name is Will, and I am the current sworn knight of the Rite of the Black Rose." Will led the way and introduced to Su Xuan, "I heard that you are here for the purple-robed priest, and I happen to be investigating this as well. thing."

"Any clues?" Su Xuan asked.

"No."

Will shook his head, and then sighed and said: "The only clues found were taken away by the supervisors of the Holy See of Light. But this is the territory of the Baroness, and they are too wanton! They even killed us. Several law enforcement knights! If I see them, I will let them stay in the Black Rose Ancient City forever!"

Hearing this, Su Xuan turned his attention to Lucia. He noticed a hint of coldness in Lucia's eyes, but the coldness was not directed at Will.

Soon after, the three of them arrived at the morgue in the ancient city of Black Rose.

The body of the purple priest was laid in a separate room. When Su Xuan and the others walked into the room, there was a strange smell in the air. This smell was not like a foul smell, but more like the smell of fermented grains.

"This is the body of the purple-robed priest, but now its appearance is unrecognizable." Will said, pointing to the corpses placed in the morgue. The corpse had turned into a shriveled body, as if all the blood had been sucked out.

When he first saw the corpse, the thought that flashed through Su Xuan's mind was that of a vampire. But he quickly rejected this idea, because the body not only lost blood, but its fat and muscles also disappeared without a trace, leaving only the skin and bones.

"You can investigate on your own. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Will turned around and left without staying any longer.

Su Xuan looked at the shriveled corpse carefully, paying special attention to the purple robe. This purple robe seems to be a little different from other purple robe priests. There are a few more crosses on the cuffs, which seem to contain some special meaning.

"Lucia, what does the cross on the cuff mean?" Su Xuan asked Lucia.

Lucia explained: "If a purple-robed priest wants to be promoted to a golden-robed priest, he must pass the Holy See's ten assessments. This priest has already passed six times and only needs to pass four more times to become a golden-robed priest of the Holy See of Light. priest."

"So that's it."

After hearing this, Su Xuan understood the meaning of the cross on his sleeves.

The system of the Holy See of Light is divided into two factions: priests and supervisors. Priests are promoted from white robes, blue robes, purple robes to gold robes, while supervisors are promoted from black robes, blue robes, purple robes to red robes. The golden-robed priests have the same status as the cardinals, and they are both top managers of the Holy See of Light.

This dead priest was only four assessments away from the golden-robed priest, which also explains why the Holy See of Light takes this matter so seriously.

While Su Xuan was thinking, Lucia's fingertips shone with golden light, and then floated on the surface of the corpse like an elf.

The golden light traveled on the surface of the corpse, and finally gathered at the heart, blooming with an extremely dazzling light.

A trace of anger flashed in Lucia's beautiful eyes, and then she quickly withdrew her magic and said to Su Xuan: "Let's go."

"Um."

Su Xuan responded because he also saw the status information of the purple-robed priest.

[A corpse that died in the annihilation of light. 】

This purple-robed priest actually died at the hands of his own people!

Moreover, Lucia seems to already know the identity of the murderer. In the ancient city of Black Rose, there are not many members of the Holy See who can threaten the status of a purple-robed priest.

"I will leave this matter to the supervisor to handle." Luciya said to Su Xuan.

"The relationship between the supervisors of the Holy See of Light and the ancient city of Black Rose is now tense. It is not easy to solve this problem as soon as possible. Since we happen to be here, we might as well solve this trouble directly. What do you think?" Su Xuan suggested to Lucia road.

"..."

When Lucia heard Su Xuan's words, a flash of thought flashed in her eyes.

After a brief silence, she said: "It's a good suggestion, but I can't show up due to some things, so you can only deal with the other party."

"I?"

Su Xuan originally planned to teleport Rosalin and the others directly, but Lucia asked him, the president, to do it himself...

"Don't worry, the opponent is not that strong. You are enough to deal with her." Lucia gently held Su Xuan's face with her jade-like palms and looked at him with eyes full of trust.

"OK!"

…

In the Church of Light in the ancient city of Black Rose, several nuns were praying devoutly. Among them, there is a nun who is different from others. She has a graceful figure, beautiful appearance, and strong strength.

“That’s it for today’s night prayers,” she announced to the other nuns.

"Okay, Sister Serra," they responded.

“Sister Serra, you have been the stewards since the priest passed away and have kept the church running properly.”

"Yes, Sister Serra. We will definitely recommend you to become the manager of the Black Rose Ancient City!"

Other nuns expressed their gratitude and respect to Serra.

"Thank you for your trust." Sister Sera responded with a smile, a hint of teasing in her eyes.

boom!

Suddenly, the door of the church was suddenly pushed open, and a tall and burly half-dragon appeared in the sight of the nuns, making them look horrified.

"Who is that?"

"A half-dragon?"

"Did he come to seek faith?"
