Are you worthy of saving the world?

The captain glanced at the girls who were hunching their shoulders and trembling with anger, and it seemed that he was about to explode at any time.

Just as he was about to say something to ease the tense atmosphere, a girl with twin ponytails in the queue suddenly spoke.

"Your Highness, how is your mother doing? Has she succeeded in convincing His Highness the Grand Duke?"

Upon hearing this question, the Grand Duke's daughter's originally tense and beautiful face instantly relaxed into a charming smile.

"By the way, everyone, listen to me."

After that, she proudly announced the fact that Yuli had "defeated" his mother with a smug look on her face, as if she was talking about her own business.

"This is something only Yuli can do!" Cecilia said exaggeratedly.

"Wow! As expected of the Saint!" "I knew that Lord Ulysses was powerful!" "I was the first to know!"

"You are truly admirable, Lord Ulysses!" "Me too!"

"Cecilia, who silently supports the Holy Son, is also amazing. I am so touched!" "Me too!"

The young ladies chattered non-stop around the two returning people.

Half of their flattery was sincere, thinking that it was great to be able to convince the Archduchess, and the other part was probably to make Cecilia forget what happened before.

Yuri walked through the crowd and sat down on the sofa in the quiet living room, looking at the twin-tailed girl knight beside him.

"Ruby, I'm a little tired. Can you make me a cup of black tea?"

"Oh...oh, okay! Wait a moment, Yuli, let me put on my socks first."

……

……

……

At nine o'clock in the evening, Yuli saw off the last guest in his house.

He had spent the entire evening in the living room dining with the girls of the Lily Cross to celebrate Cecilia's continued membership in the Order.

Yuri will be fifteen in three months, and the Lily Cross will be officially disbanded at that time. Their mission is only to protect the Son of God until he reaches adulthood.

Although there are only three months left, the fact that Cecilia, the soul of the Knights, can graduate with everyone is a great joy worth celebrating more than anything else.

Yuri picked up the banner that read "The Lily Cross is Eternal!", folded it, put it in the drawer, and turned back to the bedroom.

Lying on the bed, he took out a gold coin from his pocket and looked at it carefully in the light.

Valentine's Star Coins

【Props·Only】

[A token of alliance with the "Empress" Rosaria Valentine Augusta. ]

[Proof of mutual accomplice keeping secrets, and jointly using each other's symbol of alliance. A personal belonging of the Grand Duchess?]

This was what Yuli got when he exchanged tokens with Princess Rosalia after they had an in-depth discussion and reached a consensus.

The front is printed with the family crest of Archduke Valentine, and the back is the royal crest of Augusta. Just by holding it in your hand, you can feel the powerful magic flowing from it.

With this coin, Yuri can mobilize Rosalia's influence in the Vatican in the name of Rosalia.

The Vatican city of Falion is the largest city in the world. It is physically divided into three areas: the Papal Palace, the Upper Town, and the Lower Town.

The Pope's Hall, located at the highest point, is the administrative center of the Tenli Church and is composed of countless temples suspended in the air.

The Upper Town and the Lower Town are very much in line with the stereotype, dividing the living areas of the nobility, clergy and civilians.

The palace of Archduke Valentine and the house where Yuri lived belonged to the upper town, where the seminary and embassies of various countries were also located.

The sacred and solemn buildings in the Papal Palace and the upper town and the spotless streets remind people of heaven on earth, while the lower town is a completely different scene.

If the Upper Town is the social dance hall of the countries on the mainland, then the Lower Town is the breeding ground where various forces are mixed and entangled.

As the most powerful woman in the empire, Rosalia naturally has a large number of spies in the lower city.

Now, these complex networks of power have become Yuli's pawns.

Although he felt a little sorry for Cecilia, Yuli felt that this thing was much more useful than "Sword Princess" at least at this stage.

During today's meeting, he also realized something very important -

Although Rosalia knew that Yuli was not the son of prophecy, even she did not know where the real son of prophecy was now.

This can be said to be the biggest and most important gain today besides the conclusion of the alliance.

In fact, there are still many things I want to ask Rosalia, especially more inside information about the "Final Mystery".

But since he calls himself "The Fool", he would definitely be exposed if I asked him.

Let's maintain this cooperative relationship for now.

As for the real “Fool” that he impersonated, the player protagonist...

Yuli closed his eyes grimly, as if he had made some kind of decision.

"By the way...can I command those people?"

He asked doubtfully when he took the star coin from the Grand Duchess during the day.

Yuli was not sure how many people in the lower city knew him, but since the other party was a capable man under the Archduchess, it would not be surprising if he knew the face of the Son of God.

"Yes... Although you are still a minor, you are still a member of the Holy See. I'm afraid they won't easily accept you."

After thinking for a while, Rosalia showed a charming and seductive smile, which made Yuli shudder.

The Empress looked at the boy with a gloomy gaze and raised his chin with her finger.

“Yuri, if anyone doubts you…haha, just declare to them that I am your secret mistress.”

008 Upgrade!

"I'm not ready to be Cecilia's cheap dad..."

Yuli shook his head, trying to drive Rosalia's charming face out of his mind.

He jumped out of bed, walked to the desk, and picked up the notes spread out on it.

This is not Yuli's diary. Who would write a diary if they are serious?

This is the handwritten copy that Cecilia prepared for Yuri a while ago, which records the experience of the chief beautiful girl in the seminary in getting started with spiritual power.

The so-called spiritual power is a kind of mysterious energy that exists in "Goddess Apocalypse".

Its official name is "Aeon," and it is said to be a fragment of divine power that flowed out when the goddess created the universe.

It is an omnipotent, omnipresent, infinite, invisible and formless spirit, and the source of power for this world's belief system.

In the game plot, Yuri was accidentally killed by the spiritual power on the surface of Cecilia's skin when he attacked her.

By the way, "omnipresent" is just a description, not really omnipresent -

At least, the distribution of spiritual energy in the human body is quite selective about birth and family background.

Spiritual power is the spiritual force of order and the kindness bestowed by the Great Goddess on the sons of men.

Magic power is the demonic power of chaos, the miasma spread by the abominable witch in the world.

The biggest difference between the two is that magic power may occasionally go out of control, but spiritual power is a 100% safe and hygienic energy source.

For a clergyman, controlling the spiritual power in the body is the most basic of the basics, followed by drawing spiritual power from the atmosphere and the earth veins.

Unfortunately, Yuri, the son of prophecy, couldn't even do this.

I heard that Cecilia had naturally stimulated her spiritual power at the age of five, and could even draw "transfer" from the earth veins at the age of fourteen, and her level was close to that of a fifth-rank knight. However, fourteen-year-old Yuri had a beautiful senior schoolmate who gave him tutoring every night but still couldn't get into it.

What exactly are “normal” and “taken for granted”?

Yuli has a deep understanding of his own ordinariness, so he doesn't feel discouraged.

Anyway, he still has the information about his past life and the identity of the Son of God, so he has as many shortcuts as he wants to become stronger.

Why should I work hard?

Hmm? Before you let me work on this, could you please look at my IP address?

Having said that, Cecilia hopes to learn how to use spiritual power before she reaches adulthood, which is sincere at least.

Yuli didn't have much hope, so he just read it to pass the time.

He picked up his notebook, climbed onto the bed, and began to read by the light of the lamp.

Cecilia's handwriting is just like her personality, and it is neat and full.

"Um……?"

As Yuli read, he found something wrong and couldn't help but frown.

It’s strange…How come I can understand Cecilia’s notes today?

The obscure words in Yuli's memory, which were as incomprehensible as the skill descriptions of the new generals in Three Kingdoms Killing, were so familiar and easy to understand in Yuli's eyes.

"Ah this."

At this moment, Yuli realized a fact.

He hasn't gotten smarter.

When he regained his memories of his past life, he also regained the logical thinking ability he acquired through modern education.

Modern people are not smarter than ancient people. The key lies in their way of understanding the world, that is, scientific literacy.

The unexpected surprise made Yuli extremely excited. He licked his lips, sat up from the bed, and began to try to control the spiritual power in his body by comparing the contents of the notes.

The content of this notebook is progressive and thoughtful. Yuli thought that even if Cecilia didn't become a swordsman, she might have a talent for early childhood education, and at the very least she could be a Vtuber.

He followed the steps in the notes, from the most basic identification of the divine essence in the body, to sensing the spiritual power in the body, and finally trying to control and dominate this divine energy bit by bit.

As time passed and his studies deepened, Yuli not only did not feel tired, but became more energetic and his mind became much clearer.

It was as if an extremely comfortable heat current passed through his body, instantly activating every cell in Yuli.

The heat kept flowing in his body, endlessly, and each flow made him feel more energetic than before.

In a trance, he had a consciousness that was almost like his soul leaving his body, and an endless sense of omnipotence enveloped his soul.

My body feels so light. It’s an experience I’ve never had before. There’s nothing to be afraid of anymore.

"……hiss!"
