Just became an evil god and was summoned by the saint.

Chapter 716 Return
Upon hearing that Old Dale had died, Celia's first thought was that it was because of the gold coins she had given him, and a flood of emotions, including remorse, self-blame, regret, and anger, overwhelmed her.

The old woman seemed to sense Celia's change in mood, and she slowly said, "After he learned of Dill's death, he lost all his spirits and fell ill a few months later. Child, you know, when people get old, once they get sick, it's not so easy for them to get through it. Old Dill didn't make it, so he went to find young Dill."

"Varied……"

Celia was stunned.

She hurriedly asked, "The gold coins I gave you... didn't cause any trouble, did they?"

"Gold coins? Oh, gold coins."

As Grandma spoke, she got up and went into the house. A moment later, she took out a small box wrapped in old burlap. She opened it shakily, revealing glittering gold coins inside.

There are ten coins in total, and the anti-counterfeiting enchantment on the gold coins glistens in the sunlight.

"Are you... are you all useless?"

"Gold coins... are too valuable, we can't bear to use them. Since you're here, take them back."

"No... 10 gold coins are nothing to me... You don't need them, usually..."

"Rubis usually helps us out. He runs around for us and gets the Empire's subsidies... He also comes to visit me often. He even helped with old Dill's funeral. Sigh, he's a good man."

"Rubis..."

“The head of security, when you came last year, he was the one who told the security officer to return the money to us.”

"Oh, it's that captain."

Celia remembered that the captain had come up and started beating up his men, then claimed to be a fan...

I didn't expect that fan to have such a follow-up action, actually coming to help these two elderly people living alone.

Just then, a voice came from not far away.

"Grandma, the sun is strong, don't wander around outside, be careful not to get heatstroke. And this... oh?"

Celia turned her head and saw the security captain who had once been in charge of investigating heretical families.

The other person was stunned when they saw Celia.

Celia smiled and nodded at him: "Hello."

"Celia?!" Rubis rubbed his eyes. "Am I seeing things?"

Celia could sense the other person's emotions shift from astonishment to disbelief, and then quickly to excitement, with their heart pounding so fast it seemed to make a sound.

He looked at Celia excitedly and said awkwardly, "Celia, hello! I'm your fan. I admire you very much. What you've done in the Elf Empire is truly admirable..."

"It's nothing. Your name is Rubis, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes, my name is Rubis!"

"Thank you for helping this grandmother until now. I wonder if you could do me a favor and tell me what has happened during this time?"

"Extremely happy!"

Grandma said, "Let's go inside and talk."

From her grandmother's and Rubis's conversation, Celia quickly learned what had happened after she left.

Rubis was a fan of Celia. Seeing how much Celia cared for the elderly couple, he would check on them every few days. He not only chased away any bad guys who tried to bully them, but also bought them groceries and fruit, occasionally giving them some silver coins. He even went so far as to help them apply for subsidies from the city of Koster—a difficult task for an elderly couple whose children had been heretics. Later, Rubis learned that Celia had given the couple 10 gold coins. He offered to help them exchange them for silver coins if needed, but the couple didn't touch them. He then told them to hide them and not let anyone know.

Later, when Old Dill fell ill, he helped to hire a priest to treat him, but his financial situation wasn't good enough to hire a powerful holy priest. Besides, Old Dill was already very old, and unless it was a high-ranking priest, ordinary priests wouldn't dare to treat him casually.

In the end, old Dill couldn't hold on any longer, and since the other person had no desire to live, he passed away.

Birth, aging, illness, and death are the natural course of human life.

After learning about the situation, Celia talked with her grandmother and left some low-level magical materials and some materials that could nourish the body. Ordinary people could eat them, and even if they didn't eat them, having them at home could make people feel good.

After finishing, Celia said goodbye to the two men and left the cabin.

But she didn't leave immediately. She stopped outside and waited until Rubis left before appearing in front of him and throwing him a medal.

After Rubis caught it, she said, "Thank you for your help. Consider this medal my thank-you gift. The medal's function is purification and defense. It can resist most spell attacks of the third tier and below, and most contamination will not work on you. However, be careful. If you encounter a spell attack of the fourth tier, it will only be able to withstand it for a short time before it breaks."

"This...this gift is too precious!" Rubis held the medal, feeling like he was holding a hot potato.

He's just an ordinary minor mage; where would a fourth-tier mage come from to fight him?

Celia shook her head: "I made it casually, it's not valuable at all. You can keep it. It has runes that restore mana, so you don't need to charge it."

After saying that, Celia left.

Having met the old lady, a knot in her heart was finally untied. Celia relaxed and entered Koster City, where she strolled around at her leisure.

Of course, she disguised herself upon entering the city to avoid trouble.

After purchasing some materials that are rarely seen elsewhere, Celia also bought a set of clothes.

At this moment, she was wearing a dress with the characteristics of the Northern Alliance, a long dress that faded from dark blue to white, making her look like the most beautiful little princess on the stage.

However, after putting it on simply, she put it away, because the fluffy dress and fussy accessories were not suitable for daily adventures and battles.
After touring Leicester, Celia left the city—she worried that if she stayed any longer, the heretics might reappear...

Looking back at the vast city, Celia asked, "Where to next?"

“Let’s go back. That ‘evil god’ shouldn’t be coming out anymore, so there’s no need to go see that flower field,” Ross said with a smile.

"it is good."

Celia nodded, then turned a corner and returned to the sky above the sea of ​​flowers.

At this moment, the withered flower field was full of people, all curiously investigating the cause of the withering.

Unfortunately, they were not botanists and could not discover anything from it.

"You're really coming? Aren't you afraid that 'evil god' will suddenly appear and kill you?" Ross chuckled.

Celia made a face in her mental space: "It's obvious that Lord Ross wanted to come and see, but he didn't say so. I'm just going along with you."

"Alright, now that you've finished watching, you can leave."

"Hey, good."

This time, Celia is truly gone.

That sea of ​​flowers thus became an unsolved mystery, waiting for someone who could unravel its secrets.
