The wrong transmigrator assigned by the system

As Lu Ming used magic to unlock the chains binding the wandering spirits, the soldiers' hearts suddenly pounded, as if they would burst out at any moment.

"Sisters, let's fight! We can't let down the Darkea Empire!" Perhaps seeing the mocking looks on Lu Ming's knights' faces, the two generals who had been forced to join the training immediately roared to boost morale.

Immediately, the morale of the Dark Elf soldiers soared, after all, they did not want to bring shame to their homeland.

But the two generals' roars also attracted the attention of the wandering spirits.

Soon, the two rushed towards each other!

Chapter Twelve - Peeping in the Shadows

"Is this the thing Lu Ming made in Dark Aifa over the past two weeks?" Sitting on her throne, Queen Mialinas held something that resembled a decorative arm guard and asked her brother, Pricast, the regent of the Kingdom of Miracaissa, with some doubt.

"Yes. This thing is something Lu Ming improved upon using the arm armor-style spellcasting device from the Shadow Church. It's a treasure used to balance the power gap between the Shadow Church and the royal family and nobles of Darkea. Because of this thing, he won the favor of many priests and clergy of the Shadow Church in Darkea, and it's said that countless people have wielded power with him. But according to our spies in Darkea, apart from his wife Alex Chimera, there are no more than two Darkea elves who can sit on his lap, and one of them seems to have known Lu Ming before."

"So, he works for the Shadow Church for money?"

“He didn’t take any money; he only took some small trinkets. All those things together aren’t even worth ten gold coins. So we still don’t know what he’s thinking.”

Upon hearing this, the Queen narrowed her eyes slightly, and then asked, "So, what are the thoughts of the Church of Light regarding their best ally helping their rival?"

“Thoughts? Ha!” The Regent chuckled helplessly and sighed, “They don’t have any ideas, or rather, they don’t have any bad ideas. Four days ago, Archbishop Hiracamaina Kertz of the Church of Light and High Priestess Runemina Chimera of the Church of Shadow held a meeting in a small village on the border between the two countries. The result was that the Church of Shadow announced its formal joining of the (Hunter) organization and would establish a branch of the (Hunter) organization in Darkea, sending a High Priest to the (Hunter) headquarters to serve as its third leader.”

"Good heavens! Have both churches gone mad?! Haven't the God of Light and the Shadow Dragon King always been at odds?! How could things have turned out like this?!"

“I don’t know the specifics, but the archbishop in the temple in the capital came to see me this morning. He said that the Shadow Church joining the (Hunter) organization is a good thing for us in Miracaisar, and there’s nothing to worry about. Moreover, the (Hunters) have already started making things similar to this spellcasting device for the Church of Light and equipping it to the priests of the Church of Light.”

"According to you, this thing should be a weapon used exclusively by these two churches, so how did you get your hands on it?"

“It was given to me by that archbishop. He said it was a gift for you, the queen. Also, the queen of Darkea will receive the same gift. However, yours is of the light attribute, while hers is of the dark attribute.”

"..." Mialinas stared blankly at her brother for a long while before slamming her hand on the armrest, standing up, and angrily demanding, "What does he mean by this?! Is he showing off?!"

"Pretty much. Except you're just an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire; their real target is that guy from Darkea."

"Are you using me as a cover?"

"Ah."

Slowly sitting back on the throne, Mialinas suddenly laughed and said, "Now I really want to see what kind of expression that person has right now!"

-----------------------------------

"Damn it! How dare those priests and clergy join Mirakaissa's (hunter) organization! Are they insane?!" Just as the Regent of Mirakaissa handed the spellcasting device to Queen Mialinas, on the Dark Aifa side, a member of the royal family also handed a spellcasting device to Queen Alexis Rosemina of Dark Aifa. This queen was currently enraged, furious about the Shadow Church joining the (hunter) organization.

However, at that moment, a male Dark Elf in the palace said to the Queen, "Your Majesty, the actions of the Shadow Church are not a threat to Dark Aifa. As far as I know, (Hunters) have branches in many smaller countries, but the (Hunter) organization has never controlled these countries; on the contrary, it has allowed these smaller countries to prosper. Furthermore, (Hunters) are not an official organization of Miracaissa; they are a neutral civilian organization composed of the Church of Light, some Miracaissa nobles, and commoners. They do not obey the orders of the Miracaissa royal family or the Wolf Pack Council. Many times, the Miracaissa royal family has to pay to hire (Hunters) personnel. Moreover, they are often refused by the (Hunter) organization on the grounds that the missions are improper. And when the Shadow Church joins in, it is very likely that it will be influenced by this ideology and slowly move away from the political center, giving you the opportunity to regain power!"

"But what if (the hunters) try to use the Shadow Church to control us?"

"That's impossible! If they really intended to do that, then the Queen of Miracaissa would already be a puppet. In the Kingdom of Miracaissa, the (Hunter) organization is more like a shield protecting the country and a check on the royal family and nobles than a sword. It's just that their checks on the royal family and nobles are not as domineering as the Shadow Church, which won't stop until it takes away all the power."

"So, will the Shadow Church use (the hunters') power against us?"

"I think that's impossible. After all, (hunters) are passive shields and won't actively provoke trouble. Moreover, most of them are members of the Church of Light, who are even less inclined to take the initiative to attack. So it would be very difficult for them to use (hunters)."

"What does this thing mean? Are they showing off to me that they have obtained a stronger army than those in the capital?"

"Pretty much, but I think you might not be the only emperor who's showing off. Miracaissa's emperor probably has something exactly like the one you have in front of him right now."

Upon hearing this, the royal member standing nearby hurriedly nodded and said, "When High Priest Kiramira gave me this, he did mention that the Church of Light would also send one of these to Queen Miracaissa. However, the one they sent was of the light attribute, while the one they sent to you is of the dark attribute from the Church of Shadow."

"Different attributes? In other words, this thing is now exclusively used by these two churches?"

"Pretty much. Anyway, this thing is currently being funded and provided free of charge to these two churches by (the hunters). People who are not affiliated with these two churches have no way of getting it!"

Upon hearing this, the Queen pondered for a long time before ordering the royal member, "Arrange for a group of nobles to join the (hunter) organization. Since there are nobles from Mirakesar among the (hunters), then there should also be nobles from Darkea among our (hunters)!"

Upon receiving the order, the royal member immediately bowed and withdrew to arrange for a group of nobles to join the (hunter) organization in order to counterbalance the power of the Shadow Church in the (hunter) organization of Darkea, so that the royal family could gain enough power!

After she left, the Queen looked at the male Dark Elf, who held a high position and stood in her palace, and asked, "How is the extermination of the wandering spirits and the priests of the Poison God and the Spider Queen going?"

"After several days of combat training with the undead, the capital's army has improved its combat effectiveness and knows how to kill them. In the past few days, they have killed all the undead within a fifty-mile radius of the capital. After the Shadow Church obtained these magical devices and energy swords, they began to besiege the priests of the Spider Queen and the Poison God, forcing most of their priests to swear an oath to their shared god, Kaeya, that they would never summon the undead again. The remaining priests who resisted were all beheaded by the Shadow Dragon King's priests."

"It seems that they have already learned the Hunter Organization's idea of ​​serving the country as soon as they joined (the Hunters)."

"That's not how it is. They're just after their own church's reputation, and they're far less dedicated than the Church of Light."

"Is that so?" Hearing the male Dark Elf's words, the Queen fell into thought. Taking advantage of the moment, the male Dark Elf approached the Queen, suddenly embraced her, and kissed her...

-----------------------------------

Sitting in the office of the temporary residence, Lu Ming and Lothric were looking at a map, thinking about where they should go next.

Now that all the wandering spirits in Dark Aifa's capital have been wiped out, and even if some escaped, the Loki City army can easily handle them, the two of them felt it was time to leave and go to other parts of Dark Aifa to deal with the wandering spirits. After all, they were eager to go home as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble that might disrupt their plans.

When Asilia heard that they were leaving the capital, she raised her hands in agreement without hesitation. In the capital, she, a Dark Elf noblewoman who had been dismissed from all her posts by the priests, had suffered endless ostracism and had long wanted to leave.

It's worth mentioning that because Jamila Chimera misplaced the medicine, Aseria had the opportunity to get her hands on it. Then, while she and Chimera were on their periods, Aseria successfully seduce Lu Ming and get into his bed. This forced Lu Ming to take this ambitious Dark Elf as his "Qingren," keeping her by his side. However, because of this incident, both Chimera and Chimera's bottoms were swollen from Lu Ming's furious beating. To this day, they still walk with a slight limp...

“Let’s go to Gulveig next. The ghost plague is quite severe there. Although their army is strong, they’re not quite sure how to deal with the ghosts. If we give them some pointers, they can handle the ghosts on their own. Besides, they’re close to other ghost-infested areas, so they can help those areas instead of us having to rush over to each place.” Lu Ming tapped a spot on the map lightly before speaking to Lothric.

After thinking it over carefully, Lothric and Asilia nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to Gulveig."

“Then let’s pack our bags! This afternoon, we’ll go say hello to the Queen of Darkea, and then we can set off.” Seeing that Lothric and Aseria agreed with his idea, Lu Ming said with a smile.

So Lothric and Asilia went back to their lodgings to pack their belongings.

After the two of them left, Jamila entered the room and walked to Lu Ming's side, who was standing by the window looking out.

Are we getting ready to leave?

"Are you reluctant to leave here?"

“No! Even though I’ve lived here for over two hundred years, this has never been my home. My home is in Hyperion.” Jamila hugged Lu Ming’s arm, leaned against him, and said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Lu Ming couldn't help but laugh with a touch of shame, "You and Kate both died for me, yet I didn't recognize you when I saw you and her... Come to think of it, I really am ashamed!"

"Kemias and I have both changed our names and appearances. It would be a miracle if you could recognize us! Moreover, you were able to resist my temptations and force yourself to endure even in that situation. If Chimera hadn't revealed the truth, you probably would still be 'chaste', right?"

Hearing Jamilaya tease him, Lu Ming couldn't help but slap her bottom, making her cry out in pain. Then he angrily said, "Your bottom is all swollen now, huh?"

"If someone is wrong, can you just forgive them?"

Seeing Jamila's coquettish manner, Lu Ming couldn't help but laugh. He pulled her into his arms and said with a smile, "Alright, alright, I forgive you!"

In Lu Ming's embrace, Jamila greedily enjoyed his love, which displeased Chimera. Chimera came over, pulled Jamila away to pack her luggage, and said, "You can be intimate with her tonight. Now come with me to pack your luggage!"

"Seriously? You're even jealous of me...?"

"..." Somewhat speechless, Lu Ming watched Jamiraya being dragged away by Chimera, then smiled helplessly and continued to stand by the window, looking at the scenery outside.

The reason for this was not because the view outside the window was particularly nice, but because he saw at least twenty Dark Elf spies on the street outside the window, and wanted to see how many spies were outside his temporary residence and which side they belonged to.

'Those two spies waving at me are from the Unos royal family and the Shadow Church, respectively. Even though they're monitoring me, only they would dare to stand up so openly. Are the rest spies from the Dark Elf royal family and various noble families? What's going on? Dark Elf also has spies from the Elf Empire?' While pondering the affiliations of the spies on the street outside the window, Lu Ming suddenly sensed something amiss. He could feel a nauseating aura emanating from one of the spies, a scent unique to the Dark Elves! Clearly, that spy was from the Elf Empire, and had some connection to the Dark Elves!

"Eldridge! Do you still want to eat me? Too bad, this time, you'll be the one being eaten!" Lu Ming smiled slightly, then turned and left, returning to his room upstairs to check on his two wives' progress in packing their luggage.

Chapter Thirteen - Gulweg

"Is this the magical land of Dark Elf, Gulveig? It truly lives up to its reputation as the source of Dark Elf magic!" Stepping out of the teleportation magic station, Lu Ming looked at the city before him, which was far more stable than Loki City, the imperial capital of Dark Elf, despite being plagued by wandering spirits, and couldn't help but sigh.

Suddenly, Jamila poured a bucket of water on Lu Ming's head.

“Magic is a power that is not highly valued in Dark Aifa, and Gulveig became a city controlled by the church decades ago. The ratio of magicians to priests is probably one to four hundred and fifty-seven. So the reason why Gulveig is so stable is entirely because our priests of the Shadow Church are protecting the city, and it has nothing to do with magicians.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Ming was taken aback, then turned to Jamila and asked somewhat awkwardly, "So, the magic books in the city...?"

"They've all become the collections of nobles. It's very difficult to get them to take them out."

"Sigh! Have I been tricked?" Lu Ming sighed slightly, then looked at a towering tower that seemed to pierce the clouds in the distance.

That place was once the magic tower of a magical spirit, and it is now used as the residence of the local lord. As visitors, it is only natural for them and the Dark Elf to pay a visit to the local lord.

However, Jamila then said, "The previous lord of Hel was a priest of the Poison God, who was executed for resisting. The territory is temporarily being managed by another local priest, so we only need to go to the temple now."

"Why do I always feel like if I go to the temple, I'm destined to be a craftsman again?" Lu Ming looked at Jamilaya with displeasure and said somewhat unhappily.

"Uh..." Hearing this, Jamila was a little embarrassed, but she quickly waved her hand and said, "The Shadow Church has now allied with (the Hunters), and their weapons are now all the same as the Church of Light's—they use (Hunters') weapons and gauntlet-style holy staffs. If you go there, they will absolutely not let you modify the holy staff's mechanism. Probably..."

"perhaps?"

"No, don't worry!" Seeing Lu Ming's suspicious nature and hearing the slight lack of confidence she had inadvertently uttered, Jamila immediately said somewhat flusteredly.

At that moment, several priests from the Church of Shadows ran over, bowed to Jamila, and said to her, "High Priestess, welcome to Gulvig. We have prepared a residence for you and these twenty-odd people. However, before you go there, please go to the temple. Priest Chimzia wishes to speak with you."

After hearing what the girls said, Jamila thought for a moment, then took Lu Ming and the others to the temple in Gulvig City, intending to see what the priest Chimzia wanted to say to her.

But for some reason, Lu Ming always felt uneasy. He couldn't figure out why he was uneasy, he just felt uneasy.

Along the way, Lu Ming saw a considerable number of refugees who seemed completely out of place in the city, lurking in the alleys and streets. Some of them were cursed with the Undead, while others were just ordinary Dark Elf refugees. But no Dark Elf seemed willing to care for them, nor even glance at them, as if they were unimportant, which made Lu Ming feel uneasy.

“They are all followers of the Poison God and the Spider Queen. They kept stopping us when we executed the priests and priests of the Poisonous Serpent and the Spider Queen. So Priest Chimzia ordered that their lives be ignored.” Perhaps noticing that Lu Ming was looking at the refugees, one of the Dark Elf priests slowed down and came to Lu Ming’s side to explain.

“But not all refugees protested the execution of those priests and officials, right? Why can’t we let one faction fight the other and let them deal with each other? Why abandon them and let them fend for themselves, which only damages the reputation of the Shadow Church?” Lu Ming asked, his brows furrowed and a little puzzled.

Hearing Lu Ming's words, the pastor paused for a moment, then added, "You're right, but it's very difficult to implement in practice. Besides, we can't distinguish who is a protester and who isn't!"

"Alright!" Although Lu Ming had his own thoughts on the matter, he didn't say much. Firstly, the priest's level was too low to think that far ahead, and secondly, the Shadow Church had its own methods to solve the problem of these refugees. Saying too much would only make things worse.

During their conversation, Lu Ming and his group quickly arrived at the temple in the city.

Following the priests, Lu Ming and his companions entered the temple and slowly made their way to the room of the acting lord, Priest Chimzia. However, at the door, two high priests suddenly stopped them and said to Jamila, "We apologize, High Priest, but Priest Chimzia only wishes to see you, the Dark Elf. Earl Lu Ming and Earl Lothric will receive Priest Verra!"

Upon hearing this, Jamila immediately flew into a rage, shouting, "What do you two mean? Do you think you two lowly high priests are going to teach me how to do things? I am a high priest!"

Because of the difference in class and status, the two high priests were terrified when they saw Jamilaa get angry. They hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, High Priest, this is not our intention. It is Priestess Chimzia's intention. She does not want to see humans."

Seeing that the two high priests still refused to open the door, Jamila was so angry that she subconsciously began to cast a spell, preparing to kill the two high priests who disrespected her.

But Lu Ming stopped her.

He grabbed Jamila's hand, shook his head at him, and then asked the two high priests, "Was it Priest Verra who received us? Please take us there!"

Seeing that Lu Ming didn't want to cause trouble, Jamila didn't continue casting her spell to blast the two high priests into dust. After a cold snort, she said angrily, "You two take Earl Lu Ming to see Priest Verla. If you show him the slightest disrespect, I'll send you both to have tea with the Grim Reaper!"

"Yes, High Priest." "Count, please follow me."

Knowing that the high priests of the Shadow Dragon King were generally somewhat unreasonable, the two high priests immediately led Lu Ming and the others to the room where Priestess Verra was after hearing Jamila's harsh words, to prevent Jamila from venting her anger towards Priestess Chimzia on the two of them.

To be honest, Lu Ming and Lothric were somewhat dissatisfied with the arrogant behavior of the priest Chimchia. However, given the current situation, causing trouble was not the right thing to do. Most importantly, the Deep's lackeys were also infiltrating Darkea and tracking them. Rather than fighting Darkea and letting the Deep reap the benefits, it was better to take a step back and try to join forces with Darkea to destroy the Deep, so as to avoid any unforeseen complications.

Besides, he believed that given Jamila's protective nature, Priest Chimzia was likely to be in trouble. Therefore, he saw no need to interfere further and make things worse for her.

"Greetings, Earl Lu Ming, Earl Lothric. I am Priestess Vigana Verla. Welcome to our Gulveig."

Unlike Chimzia's arrogance, Priestess Verra stood humbly outside her door to personally greet Lu Ming and his companions, showing none of the haughtiness often associated with Dark Elf clergy. This earned Lu Ming and Lothric, who frequently interacted with priests, priests, and bishops of the Church of Light, a great deal of goodwill. It made them realize that there were indeed clergy members dedicated to spiritual cultivation within the Church of Shadows.

However, neither of them knew that this Vegana Verla was different from Chimzia and Jamila. She was not a priestess of the Shadow Dragon King, but a priestess of the Goddess of Sin. That's why she wasn't arrogant like the priests of the Shadow Dragon King, and possessed a humility that other priests of the Shadow Church lacked.
