Chapter 44. Yuri-style Infiltration
If he was the Holy See, he would expose this scene to Ortlinde. The arrangements for this day were enough for him to withdraw all his men and put on an innocent look of being deceived. Then, he would let the Valkyrie see what the church's Paladins were doing under the guidance of Laurentia!
After that, he would borrow the Valkyrie's "holy sword" to kill the Paladins who were against him!
The question was the man in front of him served the Holy See, and he was asked if he wanted to avenge Yama. Was the man not in cahoots with the Paladins?
Cisco was still confused when Char suddenly spoke.
"It's just as you think. I don't know if you've ever heard of this story. After catching all the rabbits, hunting dogs must also be eaten. After hunting the birds, you must hide the bow and arrows. Moreover, the dead is the best way to keep this secret from leaking, isn't it?"
Cisco was shocked.
As expected of the Holy See!
How ruthless!
Char explained, "I accepted the order to kill the enemy at the last moment, but didn't the enemy do the same?"
He laughed in a low but stubborn voice, "I may not be his match in a one-on-one fight, but I will use my brain to think. I think we can work together, Lord Cisco. We can work together to kill him. I will do it for myself, you do it for Yama."
Cisco's mind was calmer than ever.
"Where is he now?"
"I don't know about this, but I do know that if 'down there' causes trouble before the Holy See's own people evacuate, then he will definitely come out to mediate, and then it will be my time to make a move."
"Hmph, how would I know that you're telling the truth? Besides, how do I know you'll keep your promise?" Cisco coldly said.
Char chuckled, took out something, and handed it to him.
"Look at this emblem. Does it look exactly the same as 'his'?"
Seeing this emblem, Cisco was so angry that his whole body trembled.
"Ah... yes, yes! It's exactly the same!"
However, as he looked on, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
After telling Norman about this, Norman told him about the change of the Holy See. Since then, he had been paying attention to the sign in front of him. It did not have the unique holy aura of the church!
"This thing isn't right, .... It's a fake, it's fake!"
"Shut up, you idiot! Who do you think we are? Some saint that can walk under the bright sun? We're in the middle of a filthy business, so of course we can't be tainted with the church's aura. Otherwise, if we're exposed, how big of an impact would it have on the church?"
Cisco was silent.
Char knew the man's mind was wavering, so he threw out his ultimate move. "We can sign a contract."
"Alright," he said.
Cisco agreed almost instantly.
The two of them immediately signed a contract.
"In the name of the Father, let us trust each other."
"Your blood enmity is my blood enmity."
Char extended his hand.
Cisco barely managed to sit up. He cut Char's finger and wiped the blood on his lips.
[Due to the contract, Cisco's favorability towards you has temporarily increased to intimate (effective time: 5 minutes) ]
[Due to the contract, within the next three days, you will have to kill Cisco's enemy [Player: Char]]
[Due to the contract, Cisco's HP will be shared with you. If you fail to complete the contract, all your profession levels will be reduced by 5 levels.]
Poor Cisco, he still didn't know that his enemy was standing in front of him/
Moreover, the enemy was immortal.
It was really tragic.
"Goddess, can you sense what 'rule' that was?" Char asked.
"It's the 'system' you mentioned. What's wrong?"
System?
Char was suspicious.
"Are you sure?"
"Of course. What's going on?"
"The Holy Spirit of Order is clearly dead—that's something both you and I have confirmed. You've even taken back a portion of his power, but the contract still goes on as usual. Don't you think that's strange?" he asked.
Messiah was silent for a few seconds.
"Maybe this part of his power was also stripped away, or he gave it away before he came?"
"Forget it, let's not blindly ponder."
Char threw this matter to the back of his mind and started to discuss matters with Cisco, who had lowered his guard against him.
"Take me down there," Char said as he took out a cloak to hide his face.
"Alright," he said.
After sharing his health points with Char, the old priest, who was like a candle in the wind, suddenly became full of life. He jumped off the bed and took out a small box wrapped in unknown leather from the box. From it, he took out a bone dagger that was gleaming coldly. There was a round hole on the handle, and a piece of broken red silk was tied on it, as if it had been dyed dark by blood.
Char raised an eyebrow.
This thing…

"An eye for an eye."

This was beyond Char's expectations. He was still a little confused. This dagger was a weapon in the hands of the White Skeleton, Yama. He had always thought that it was hidden in Yama's house, but now it seemed that it had been passed on to his grandson.
No wonder he didn't think that Cisco was that powerful that day. He wasn't as amazing as Yama had made him out to be. Now, it seemed like it was because of this dagger.
"Let's go,"
Cisco's ice-like blue eyes emitted a cold gleam of revenge, and even Char felt a chill down his spine.
"Let's go," he said.
He nodded his head.
…
The two of them left the tent. Char was planning to hide, but Cisco patted his shoulder.
"It's fine now."
Char looked around and found that the two Paladins guarding the door were no different from the Barbarians controlled by the "Frozen Heart ". Their eyes were dull, and they ignored the two people who were swaggering by.
An instant [ Frozen Soul ]...
Thinking back to that night, the grandfather and grandson had to rely on the totems of the camp to complete their spell casting, it was really heaven and earth apart.
However, the infiltration method was a little too reckless.
"Let's find a small path."
"Why go through so much trouble?" Cisco sneered.
"Nonsense, the guards of the church will change shifts. Do you think they are as stupid as the Barbarians? "
Char cursed, and then chose the most hidden route.
Even so, he was still able to reach the entrance of the sinkhole without any obstructions.
There were four people on guard, and the leader was a Paladin who had stood behind Sean during the day. Even Cisco couldn't do anything to him.
"You interfere with his perception. I'll take care of it," Char said in a low voice. His voice was like a cold wind, causing Cisco to shiver.
He had only taken two steps before he was stopped.
"Stop there."
"It's me."
pAnD a(-)n0ve1.com The old priest's voice was hoarse.
"Cisco?"
"I remember that you were just carried out of the court this afternoon. How did you get up so quickly?" the Paladin said, frowning.
One of his hands was on the sword, and holy white flames slowly rose from under his feet.
"Be honest, or else ..."
Before he could finish his words, a blood-stained invisible sword tip poked out of his chest. The Paladin's armor was like paper that has no protection at all.
A dazzling white flame burst out from his body, and his wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Instead, it squeezed out the "Fire of Origin " bit by bit!
It was the Paladin's level 60 skill, " Blazing Defender"!
-
[Blazing Defender ]: the damage you receive is reduced by 9%. When you receive fatal damage, you are immune to damage and recover 20% of your maximum health. If the amount of healing exceeded the maximum health points, it would turn into a shield of the corresponding value.
-
As expected of Paladins who could heal, attack, and defend. This kind of fatal injury did not kill them. Instead, because of Char's sudden instant kill, he gained a shield with 20% of his health points.
The Paladin did not have time to think about why the squires did not warn them. He only wanted to warn the others loudly, but he clearly forgot that there was another person standing in front of him.
The ceremonial blade's tip gently touched the Holy Knight's forehead. The force was so light that it could not even break his skin, but the point of contact emitted a terrifying freezing power, and his entire body was frozen in the blink of an eye.
Even the flames that had yet to rise were frozen in ice, looking very lifelike.
The ice shards were still spreading, and it was a good thing Char had escaped quickly, or else it would have caught up to him.
"Crack!"
The ice sculpture shattered and turned into fine powder, covering the three Paladins who had fallen down at some point.
