Stella put her hands on her hips, her tone clearly provocative.

The two young temple knights looked at each other and grasped the hilts of their swords with their left hands.

They maintained this threatening posture and once again stated: "Please leave immediately."

"I reject."

This time, it was not Stella who spoke, but Yuli.

He stared straight at the two knights, and the coldness in his golden pupils made the two of them involuntarily take a step back.

"...!"

With the sound of metal sliding, a temple knight drew his sword.

He stared at Yuri, clearly losing his temper and asked loudly, "Are you here to cause trouble?!"

"We are just ordinary citizens who come to visit the garden. As a Knight Temple, how can you draw your sword against ordinary people?" Yuli frowned.

"Wait...Jill, this isn't a good idea, is it? Calm down!" The other knight who didn't draw his sword was obviously a little panicked and tried to persuade his companions.

Yuli and Stella both wore formal aristocratic attire today, and with their beautiful looks, they obviously looked of noble status.

Although it was a job requirement, the knight also tried his best not to offend the young masters and young ladies of noble families for no reason.

"These two guys are so suspicious! Why did you choose this time to come to this garden... I understand, you must be assassins!"

The knight who drew his sword trembled slightly, and shouted: "Phantom? You are not the Phantom! I will arrest you in the name of the Knights Templar!"

It's already this late and we're still talking about "Phantom", this topic should have ended long ago.

"Can't you just calm down a little bit?"

Yuli sneered and said, "Or do you want me to help you calm down?"

"..."

The knight with the sword drawn wavered slightly.

Yuli did not miss the opportunity and took a step forward.

Before the other party could react, he swung out his clenched left fist, and hit the Temple Knight's wrist with the protruding index and middle finger joints.

"pain……!"

The young knight showed a painful expression and loosened the sword in his hand.

Stella quickly bent forward and grabbed the hilt of the knight's sword.

The whole process happens in just a moment.

Yuli and Stella's tacit cooperation was seamless, and they took away the weapons of the Knights Templar.

"..."

Both the guy whose sword was taken away and his companion were stunned and speechless.

Stella swung the knight's sword in her hand, sneered and taunted: "Huh? Didn't you say you were going to arrest us?"

"...Gu!"

The knight's face flushed red.

Having your weapon taken away from you is arguably the greatest humiliation for a knight.

With Yuli's considerate help, he finally calmed down physically.

Although I acted impulsively just now, how will this end... Yuli thought.

He and Stella were about to be investigated, so they didn't want to make a big deal out of it if possible.

If this gets to the ears of the Twelve Holy Sees, no matter who is right or wrong, they will always be used as excuses...

Just when Yuri was about to say something harsh and take Miss Witch away,

"Brother Yuli!"

A clear and penetrating voice rang out in the garden.

Everyone turned around in the direction of the voice and saw a young girl who looked very much in keeping with the charming courtyard.

Her dazzling long hair falls naturally over her shoulders, and her delicate features and fair skin remind her of a high-end doll in a shop window.

Her posture was extremely elegant, and her outfit was simple yet gorgeous, and it looked like a very high-end item.

Judging from her height and childish figure and face, the girl seems to be less than ten years old.

However, she exudes a certain kind of steady aura, making people feel a maturity that is inconsistent with her actual age.

Behind her were several adults, both men and women, who were the girl's attendants.

Obviously, the girl's security work was the reason why the two Temple Knights needed to block and clear the area.

"It's really Brother Yuli!"

The girl smiled a smile brighter than any flower and ran towards Yuri.

Several followers were immediately shocked when they saw this: "Wait, wait a minute, Lady Rukia! Please don't run in the garden!"

The girl ran so fast that the adults had to chase after her in panic.

The little girl named Rukia trotted up to Yuri and stopped.

"Good afternoon, Brother Yuli!"

"Good afternoon, Rukia."

Yuri answered while narrowing his eyes and looking to the side.

The two knights who had just tried to expel Yuli were now pale and at a loss.

"How could it be...you are Yuri..."

"Ulyphis Falchion?"

The knight who drew his sword showed a look of despair.

Yuri then reached out and stroked Rukia's head happily.

Look what you made for me?

What a cliché Dragon King plot. Oh, I told you not to keep doing this...

"Brother Yuli, what happened? I seemed to hear someone arguing just now."

Rukia smiled innocently and looked up at Yuri.

"It's nothing, just a small misunderstanding, it's been resolved."

These two knights are also concerned about Rukia's safety, so there is no need to make things too difficult for her.

Yuri smiled and said, "I think what I said is correct, my two lord knights."

"Ah...! Yes! I'm so sorry to trouble you! Master Ulysses Falchion!"

They bowed deeply and respectfully to apologize.

At Yuli's urging, Stella snorted disdainfully, accepted the apology and returned the sword to the other party.

"Brother Yuli, why are you in the Pope's Hall?"

Rukia and Yuri walked hand in hand in the flower-filled courtyard, chatting as they walked.

Stella walked aside, while Rukia's followers followed behind at a distance of more than five meters.

"I see. Are you here for an investigation?"

Rukia observed the silver-haired witch curiously, revealing a cute little girl's smirk: "In other words, this sister is the rumored ..."

"What kind of rumors?"

"Brother Yuri is challenging the authority of the Vatican for the sake of his beloved magician mistress." Lukia covered her lips with a cunning look on her face.

“Haa…!?” Stella’s eyes widened.

“It’s not like that. Stella and I don’t have that kind of relationship.”

Yuli explained that theirs was a pure teacher-student relationship.

"Really?" Rukia blinked her big watery eyes.

"Really, really." Yuli nodded.

"What? That's so boring... I thought I had a sister-in-law~" The little girl pouted her lips cutely.

Hey, Yuli!

Stella elbowed Yuli and whispered, “Who is this kid?”

"Wow……"

When Rukia saw the two of them biting each other's ears intimately, her cheeks turned slightly red and she exaggeratedly covered her lips with her hands.

Yuli sighed: "Stella, let me introduce you, this is..."

Just as he was about to explain, Rukia stopped him with her hand.

The little girl raised the corners of her mouth and lifted the hem of her skirt gracefully.

"Nice to meet you. My name is Lucia Farion."

She is obviously only eight or nine years old, and just now she looked lively and playful, in keeping with her age.

But at this moment, Stella felt a kind of indescribable solemnity from the girl.

However, compared to this trivial matter...

What really surprised the witch was the girl's last name.

"Farion... is...?"

The silver-haired witch stared at the girl in disbelief, her shoulders trembling violently, and she felt her throat quickly becoming dry.

Rukia held Yuri's big hand with one hand and placed the other hand on her flat chest.

"I am the Pope of this country... the Tenri Church."
