Li Yue looked at Naxi Da.

"After all, we'll need some people to help us next."

"I understand. Management requires help, just like Captain Aizen did before, he needed someone to help him."

"That's right. So-called gods don't need to be perfect in every way. What gods need to do is point out a direction and then watch over them from behind."

Li Yue lectured Naxi Da.

"So, Hinamori, do you know what to do?"

"I understand. I will try to persuade those scholars in the Order of the Church."

"No, Hinamori, you've got it wrong!"

Li Yue shook her head.

"what?"

Nasita tilted her head in confusion.

“We don’t need to persuade those scholars in the ecclesiastical councils; what we need to do is get those scholars to join us willingly.”

"what?"

Nasida was a little confused; she didn't quite understand what Li Yue meant by that.

"It means very simply, just as I said, to get those important people to join us voluntarily."

Li Yue smiled mysteriously.

"Hinamori, do you remember how I taught you to use the grass element?"

"Attack with trees?"

"No, it's another kind."

"Flowers in the Mirror, Moon in the Water?"

Naxida paused for a moment after speaking.

"But what does this have to do with a mirage?"

"Of course it matters."

"If you can use 'flowers in a mirror and the moon in the water' on yourself, you can naturally use it on others!"

As Li Yue spoke, he started walking forward, and Naxi Da immediately followed, standing beside him and looking up at him.

"What are we looking for, Hinamori? Do you remember?"

"remember."

The darkness within the Church of Christ, and the collaboration between the Church of Christ and the Fools.

"The darkness within the Council of the Fathers must be one thing after another. The simplest way to find people who are useful to us is to cause problems within the Council of the Fathers."

"I still don't quite understand what this means."

Nasita was still a little confused.

"It's a very simple principle. The darkness within the Doctrine of the Seats is definitely all in cahoots. If someone in this group gets into trouble, they will definitely try to get that person out, or just deal with them casually and call it a day, downplaying the seriousness of the matter. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

"I understand this."

Naxi Da nodded quickly.

"Good that you understand. So what we need to do next is to use our illusory illusions to turn those scholars in the Order of the Church into evil criminals."

"what?"

Nasida never expected that Li Yue had such a plan.

"But if that's the case, wouldn't those innocent scholars also..."

"Don't worry, they won't do anything too outrageous. And if they do get in, we'll remember their names. Once we master Sumeru, we can easily help them solve those problems."

As Li Yue spoke, she looked at a gray-haired man walking ahead who was looking down at a book.

"Let's start with this scholar."

"Yes, Captain Aizen."

233. Al-Hysen, you've been caught!

Elhesen, a scholar of the "Cognitive School," one of the six major schools of the Sumeru Order, and an ordinary scribe in Sumeru City.

Of course, he considered himself an ordinary clerk.

The title of "Secretary" is a title within the Instructional Council that sounds like an official position, but in reality, it's just something created by high-ranking officials within the Instructional Council who like to give themselves official titles and save face.

The so-called clerk is essentially someone who cannot participate in any important meetings, let alone the core decision-making of the Council of Religious Affairs. He is only responsible for archiving and backing up important information. To put it simply, he is a librarian.

However, this position can be considered either useless or extremely useful!

Because Sumeru is a land of wisdom, and of course, for Li Yue, it should be called a land of data.

The entire Sumeru region's paper books and written documents were once under the control of the Order of the Church. Relying on the convenient and fast Sumeru local area network such as the Void Terminal, the Order of the Church could easily grasp everything in Sumeru, including the dissemination of knowledge and information. This resulted in a large number of paper books and written documents being concentrated in the hands of the Order of the Church, or rather, in the hands of the scribes within the Order of the Church. The scribes could easily know many things within the Order of the Church, because the filing of paper documents was always inseparable from the position of scribe.

Unless the matter is so important that it cannot be recorded in paper documents!

As the current scribe of the Sumeru Order, Elhesen is perfectly suited to his position. He does not participate in any unnecessary meetings, and even when he is notified to attend, he only records the necessary matters. Whether he records other content depends entirely on his mood. If the content of the meeting is not related to his interests or he is not interested, he is too lazy to offer his opinion. Only when others make foolish opinions in front of him will he make some overly incisive comments.

In the eyes of the students at the Commandment Academy, he was someone who was often hard to find in his office. In fact, the students had no idea where to find him. He might be at home, in the library, or in a coffee shop. In any case, he would not be in his office most of the time. Students who wanted to teach him documents eventually had to come to his office, put the documents on his desk, and wait for him to come back before dealing with them.

However, in Elhesen's own eyes, he has a stable and comfortable job in Sumeru City, very high-quality real estate, and a very relaxed and carefree life. His salary is more than enough for him to enjoy life. He is an excellent and carefree person!

For example, today, he clocked in at the office as usual, then left the office with his newly found book. He started reading as he walked towards the coffee shop, planning to order a coffee and spend the morning reading.

"Ok?"

Although he was reading a book while walking, Elhesen was still observing his surroundings. However, most of the time, the things around him were the same as every day, repeating themselves in a mundane way, so he didn't care.

But today is different. Some different things have happened around us today.

Two strangers appeared on the street.

One was wearing a black kimono with a white haori, while the other was only wearing a black kimono.

"Inazuma-hito? And it seems he's following me."

El-Hysen wasn't sure. He had walked quite a distance from the Church of Christ, and the two people behind him had been following him the whole time. But he couldn't be sure that they were tracking him. What if he and these two foreigners were just going the same way?

After all, the streets of Sumeru City don't belong to him; countless people walk on this road every day.

However, Al-Hysen was an exceptionally observant person. Through careful observation of certain details, he eventually confirmed that the other person was indeed following him.

The simplest example is that after you deliberately slow down, the other party also slows down; after you stop, the other party doesn't stop, but deliberately goes around you to maintain a distance.

Ordinary people might not notice such an action, because there are all kinds of people on the street, and pedestrians usually have their own things to do and are unlikely to be paying attention to what's behind them all the time.

But who is Elhesen? On the surface, he is an ordinary scribe, but in addition to being a scribe, he is also the holder of the Grass Elemental Eye.

Although Elhesen desires a peaceful life, anyone who tries to disrupt it is his enemy! He shows no mercy to his enemies! If a fight were to break out, he believes he is second to none!

"Hmph, let me see what these two foreigners are up to."

After confirming that the other party was following him, Elhesen prepared to take action. He wanted to find a place to see what the two people were up to, after all, he didn't want his peaceful life to be disrupted.

After deciding to take action, Al-Hysen continued reading with his head down, but began to quicken his pace.

As Elhesen quickened his pace, the two men following behind him also sped up their movements.

To prevent his plan from being exposed, Al-Hysen continued to walk at the same pace as before, sometimes speeding up and sometimes slowing down, and even stopping to look at the stalls along the way, as if he wanted to shop.

Maintaining this pattern of action, Al-Hysen, along with the two men behind him, continued to advance into secluded streets until finally, he reached a small alley behind a restaurant.

"Come in, haven't you been following me for a long time already?"

Upon entering the alley, Elhesen turned around and crossed his arms, waiting for the two people behind him to enter the alley.

However, to Elhesen's surprise, after waiting for a while, no one came in, which puzzled him greatly.

What's going on? Does that mean those two weren't with me?

Puzzled, Elhesen walked out of the alley and looked at the empty street, where there was no sign of the two people.

"I made a mistake? That shouldn't be the case."

El-Hysen began to doubt himself. Based on his experience, those two were definitely suspicious. But why didn't they follow him into the alley? Once he was in a place where no one else was around, shouldn't they have attacked him directly? Or did they have some other purpose?

Despite his confusion, after observing his surroundings and confirming that no one else was around, Elhesen reluctantly walked back to the street. Since the two people had disappeared, he decided to go to a coffee shop to have some coffee and read a book.

However, to Al-Hysen's surprise, he was stopped by a short man wearing a dog-head hat as soon as he arrived at the coffee shop.

The short, white-haired man pointed his long spear at Elhesen.

"Clerk Elhesen, you've been caught!"

234. The Pursuit from the Grand Eunuch!

Although the Kyoryoin does not have its own army, it does have its own security force called the Disciplinary Officers, much like the Disciplinary Committee members in Japanese high schools. The Disciplinary Officers are mainly responsible for supervising and arresting those who violate the Kyoryoin's orders, stopping prohibited research, and maintaining discipline within the Kyoryoin.

The disciplinary officials are a separate system from the scholars. In theory, even if a great sage commits a crime, the disciplinary officials can arrest him.

Sino, on the other hand, is the best among the disciplinary officers because he is the Grand Disciplinary Officer, which is much higher than that of ordinary disciplinary officers!

As the leader of the Disciplinary Officers of the Church, Grand Disciplinary Officer Seno's reputation within the Church is known to all.

Although his duties are to arrest those who violate the teachings, stop prohibited research, and maintain discipline within the institute, in the eyes of the scholars, this Grand Disciplinarian is destroying scholarship, banning research, and even "cutting off the path to knowledge." Every scholar in the institute who yearns for knowledge may be "threatened" by him.

Over time, whenever scholars saw Sino, they would all fall silent and avoid him, fearing that they would have no connection with him whatsoever.

However, the Grand Disciplinary Officer did not mind this situation. If such exaggerated "prestige" could truly intimidate the scholars, it would also help him maintain discipline within the academy.

Just now, he received a report from a member of the Sumeru community that a clerk of the Order Academy had actually killed someone in the street because of a quarrel!

This situation shocked even Seno. The scribes, those bookworms from the Order of the Fathers, were actually capable of killing someone in the street? And it was just because of some argument. Shouldn't they have sat down and argued for hours, with neither of them convincing the other in the end?

Despite the shock, Seno rushed to the scene immediately and found a body lying in the bushes by the roadside. The person appeared to have been stabbed in the chest by a one-handed sword. The sword seemed to be single-edged, with a fairly thick blade, and the wound was right in the heart. The person died from rapid blood loss due to the large wound.

At the scene, Sino also encountered an eyewitness, a street vendor.

According to the vendor's description, he saw a gray-haired man and another person have a conflict and start arguing. However, as the argument went on, the gray-haired man seemed to become impatient with the other person's story and pulled out a green one-handed sword, stabbing the other person in the chest, piercing his heart.

Then the gray-haired scholar kicked the other man into the bushes, and after observing the surroundings, the vendor quickly hid when he saw the other man make a move, thus avoiding being noticed and escaping being killed.

Only after the gray-haired man left did the vendor dare to crawl out from behind his stall and run away to call for help.
