The so-called "fanaticism" is truly unbelievable.

"Cecilia, are you free tonight?"

"Oh! It's a celebration, right? You're free."

"Let's call everyone together."

“Yes, Your Majesty!” Cecilia said cheerfully.

Yuri thought to herself, "I'll take advantage of the party tonight to ask everyone about Annabelle."

At the other end of the teaching building corridor.

"……whispering sound."

Annabelle gazed at the departing figure of the prophesied child and bit her nails.

"Anna! What happened?" a female voice called from behind her.

"Nothing, let's go."

Annabelle tossed her hair with a flourish, then turned and left without looking back, accompanied by another pink-haired female teacher.

……

……

……

"Hey, everyone."

The time was close to 5 p.m. the following day, in the Lower City area.

The Blue Cosmos Chamber of Commerce, with its doors tightly shut.

With the "Azure Queen" pendant hanging from her waist, Yuri paced back and forth on the wooden floor with her hands behind her back.

Yuri is now able to move freely between the Upper and Lower Towns at night without needing the Lily Cross's supervision.

This is because Rosalia's people were planted in the guards between the upper and lower city areas.

It's more difficult during the day and at night, but there's an opportunity during the morning and afternoon shift changes, allowing Yuri to sneak out.

"...Tsk."

At this moment, the few scattered members of the chamber of commerce stared at the arrogant young man swaggering in the store, veins throbbing on their foreheads.

We closed early today to accommodate him... but this guy came all this way just to show off the gift Miss Cecilia gave him?

It was the same a few days ago...

Just to help him scare a common girl, they forced us to clear out the entire Prosperity Square in two hours!

I really don't understand... Why would Princess Rosalia agree to be an ally of this brat? And why would she make us all obey her orders?

Yuri, unfazed by the resentment of the entire guild, continued to show off in front of everyone for a while before heading to the counter.

The tall man who had previously served him was standing behind the counter.

His name is Mason, and he is a minor leader of Blue Cosmos in the lower city. It seems that the guild master is someone else.

Unlike the other members of the chamber of commerce who harbored resentment towards Yuri, he wore a smile.

"Lord Euryphus, is there anything I can do to help you?"

The black-haired boy rested his left hand on the hilt of his sword and his right hand on the counter, asking in a low voice, "How's the investigation going with the matter I asked you to handle?"

Yuri turned his body to the side as he spoke.

In a corner of the Chamber of Commerce, Stella stood with her arms crossed, pressed against the wall.

Yuri had made a promise to her that he would use his connections to help her find her family.

After that, Yuri didn't hide anything from her. Instead, he generously took her to the Chamber of Commerce and introduced her to his underworld buddies.

Yuri wasn't worried that Stella would bypass him and have a private relationship with them.

Blue Cosmos are loyal to Rosalia; if they were to do anything detrimental to Yuri, it would only bring shame upon their master.

Secondly, and more importantly, Yuri felt that Stella wasn't the type to break a promise without permission; if she were, he wouldn't have approached her in the first place.

"The children who went missing four years ago in the attack on Alavent Monastery..."

Mason frowned and sighed.

"I'm very sorry, our people have already searched the lower city and the area around the Vatican, but haven't found any children with similar characteristics."

As he spoke, he glanced meaningfully at the silver-haired girl in the corner of the chamber of commerce and raised his voice slightly.

"Could there be some mistake? Miss Stella isn't entirely sure either. Are those children definitely at the Vatican?"

It's impossible to hide a group of children in this city for four years. I suggest we broaden the search area and not just limit ourselves to…”

His words were clearly meant for Stella.

Stella, who was in the distance, neither refuted nor argued after hearing this; she simply turned her face away silently.

Just then, Yuri noticed that Mason's right hand, which he had placed on the bar, had moved.

A piece of paper was held between two fingers that were slowly moving in this direction.

As expected of Rosalia's subordinates, they have a good eye for things...

The black-haired boy understood immediately and, taking advantage of Stella's distraction, quietly accepted the note.

Afterwards, the two stood at the bar and chatted for a while about the terrible weather in the Vatican.

"By the way, Mr. Mason, are there any suitable quests for me in the Lower City recently?"

The Holy Son's question stunned Mason, who even doubted whether he had misheard: "Do you want to do a mission?"

Goddess of the Dead is a hack-and-slash game, featuring a dungeon system (singularities) and a quest system.

Actions such as fighting monsters, studying, and practicing can only gain "job level experience", not "class experience".

Class experience can generally only be obtained through events, such as dungeons and quests.

The continent of Diamat has a very mature and comprehensive task delegation system.

As Rosalia's grassroots intelligence unit, Blue Cosmos should possess a large amount of mission intelligence.

Yuri wanted to find some tasks to do through the Blue Cosmos to level up the last 20% of experience so he could go back and thoroughly humiliate Teacher Anna!

"Yes."

Yuri responded to the incredulous looks from those around him and nodded seriously: What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a savior unclog a toilet before?

Mason said apologetically, "I'm very sorry, but for some well-known reason... the Vatican has almost no idle commissions left."

"I see, I've heard that rumor too." Yuri couldn't help but give a wry smile.

At this moment, Mason tentatively asked, "Lord Euryphus, what is your current rank?"

After he asked that question with a serious expression, a few scattered laughs echoed in the shop.

"What rank does this brat have?" Their laughter subtly conveyed this meaning.

"I am currently in the late stage of the second rank and am seeking a mission that will allow me to advance to the third rank."

Yuri's words silenced the mockery.

He smiled faintly at the surprised looks from Stella and others, keeping his achievements hidden.

"It's okay to tattle on Rosalia, just remember to keep it a secret from Cecilia."

"Is this a suitable task for a second-tier mission? Let me think about it."

While Mason was deep in thought, Yuri subtly suggested, "The best kind of quest would be one that rescues elven slaves... hmm~"

For some reason, he suddenly thought of Tia just now.

That innocent elf princess who, in the singularity, was ultimately unable to properly say goodbye or explain things to her.

Whether I'm an elf or not doesn't matter; the main thing is that I'm a kind-hearted person and can't stand the system of slavery!

Actually, Yuri was just saying that.

The elves in "Perfect World" are, after all, the Celestial Dragons, a truly superior race.

They call themselves the consorts of the goddess, the eldest sons of the White Night, an ancient and noble race that ruled this planet in the Second Era.

At the end of the Second Age, the elven high priest, known as the "Sacred Tree," imparted divine laws to the humans of the continent and later helped establish the Church of Heavenly Principle.

After entering the Holy Era, the dwindling number of elves began to implement a policy of isolation, and the Holy Tree Kingdom severed most of its cultural and commercial ties with humans.

In recent centuries, elves have become almost impossible to find in human kingdoms.

Not to mention elven slaves, how could that possibly exist...?

“Lord Euryphus, the Holy See happens to have a mission to rescue elven slaves,” Mason said.

104 No human understands elves better than me!

"what?"

Yuri was completely bewildered: There really are people who aren't afraid of death and dare to treat elves as slaves?

Because of the connection between the Sacred Tree and the Church of Heaven, elves also hold an extraordinary position in human society.

To lay a hand on Master Jing is a capital offense!

"I thought you already knew about this mission and were deliberately testing me," Mason said with a wry smile.

Yuri's expression immediately turned serious: "A delicate elf slave."

Next, Mason explained the situation to the boy.

This is a request from the embassy of the Holy Tree Kingdom.

Although the Kingdom of the Sacred Tree implements a closed-door policy, it does not mean that they prohibit their citizens from leaving the country.

The Elven Kingdom's foreign policy is to "allow elves to leave the country while prohibiting humans from entering," in order to ensure a minimum level of external influence and cultural exchange.

In recent years, the elves have also come up with similar human kingdom travel projects, such as "Ten-Day Tour of the Papacy's City, Get Up Close to Witness the Great Miracles of Mother White Night!"

The girls who were enslaved in this incident were a group of elves who came to the Papacy for tourism.

A month ago, these elves lost all their money at a casino in the lower city and even owed the casino a sum of money.
