"Please take care of me in the future, Leah."
This voice made Leah feel inexplicably at ease.
Chapter 4 You are a talent
[After you have gathered the minimum team size, you go to find Bishop Leiter. Bishop Leiter has asked you to go to him.]
[Although Ravni was a little unhappy about you adding Pierce and Kurt to the team, she finally agreed. Pierce and Kurt directly regarded Ravni as their leader.]
[You also introduced Leah to Raphne. Pierce and Kurt already knew about Leah. Everyone was friendly with her, but you could sense that Leah was consciously keeping a distance from the others.]
[When Raphne saw that Leah seemed to be getting close to you, she became a little angry like a provoked kitten. Leah seemed to have noticed something, too. The two girls looked at each other with somewhat strange eyes.]
[In a somewhat subtle atmosphere, you and a few others found Bishop Leiter.]
In the church with stained glass, a burly man in a bishop's robe was standing in front of the statue of the Holy Goddess and telling a group of children the story of the origin of the magic command spell.
After noticing the appearance of Blacklett, the sturdy man who looked like a brown bear handed over the storytelling task to the pastor next to him.
Bishop Rhett walked with steady steps, exuding a gentle aura. He patted Blacklett on the shoulder and said with a smile.
"Boy, I was just planning to look for you later, but I didn't expect you to come here by yourself."
While speaking, Bishop Rhett glanced at the people behind Heilite. His gaze lingered on Leah, who was following closely behind Heilite, for a few seconds. A meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"I don't want to come to you, can I leave now?"
Black Light looked at the muscular man in front of him who could kill a cow with one punch, a reluctant expression appeared on his face, and he turned around and made a gesture to leave.
Bishop Rhett, it was he who brought Helett to the Cathedral Church, and Rhett often claimed to be Helett's godfather.
It can be said that it was because of meeting Bishop Rhett that Helett was able to live such a peaceful life in the cathedral church, with food and drink and the company of those broad-minded nuns. The nuns liked to listen to him telling them stories about fairies in heaven falling in love with mortals.
But Hei Lai Te also did not pay less for "rent and food". The bishop in front of him always treated Hei Lai Te as a tool, such as testing new magic marks, trying new magic potions and so on. Anyway, there was no good thing.
"Heilite! There's something wrong with your mind! Come here! You need to repent!"
Bishop Rhett suddenly shouted, grabbed the back of Blacklett's collar, and dragged Blacklett into the soundproof confessional in front of Raphne and Leah.
Seeing the closed door of the confessional, Leah seemed a little worried, but Raphney was not surprised.
Pierce and Kurt simply pretended not to see anything.
"Boy, you just met Miss Liya today, right? You made her care about you so much on the first day we met? I knew you were not a good person."
As soon as he entered the confessional, Bishop Rhett unbuttoned his solemn and gorgeous bishop's robe, skillfully took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.
Black Light was not surprised by this. When he first met Bishop Light, he was smoking a cigarette and had blood all over his head while fighting with magic against someone else.
"So what's wrong with Leah? If she's just a half-demon, then she shouldn't be so feared by other nobles, right? I can feel that she's very unique..."
Going straight to the point, Hei Lai Te asked the questions in his mind.
The teammates Bishop Rhett chose for him were not just Pierce and Kurt. Apparently, Bishop Rhett had chosen Leah to join Black Light's team from the very beginning.
This can be guessed from the change in Bishop Rhett's eyes when he saw Leah and Blacklet appear together.
"Haha, since you already know it, I won't explain any more. Next, I will tell you about Leah, about her and the Thor family she belongs to."
Bishop Rhett was well prepared for Helett's inquiries.
Then, Bishop Rhett told you the secrets about Leah and the Thor family.
It turns out that the Thor family, as lords, has been studying blood and magic. The first method the Thor family found was to intermarry with the demons so that their descendants could obtain the same innate and powerful magic as the demons.
Initially, this kind of intermarriage and mixed blood did have a very good effect. However, gradually the disadvantages of such mixed blood emerged. Excellent descendants of the Thor family continued to die, and no one could live beyond the age of twelve.
In order to strengthen the magic of the succubus bloodline, the Thor family began to constantly try to enhance the magic of succubus hybrids through artificial means. Leah is the Thor family's most successful experimental result.
But even if Leah is the most successful experimental result at present, it does not mean that it is a successful experimental result. Occasionally losing control will cause Leah to absorb the magic power of others like a succubus.
Once, at a noble banquet, Leah accidentally went berserk and absorbed a large amount of magic power, causing all the nobles at the banquet to be unconscious for more than half a month, and the weaker ones had to recuperate for half a year.
Therefore, the nobles developed a strong fear of Leah, the daughter of the lord. However, given that Leah was the daughter of the lord, no one dared to condemn Leah. Avoiding contact with Leah had become a consensus among the nobles.
After reading the information, Hei Lai Te frowned heavily.
This kind of reaction from Hei Lai Te was completely within Bishop Lei Te's expectations. You know, when Bishop Lei Te first knew about this, he was also sighing in his heart.
After all, Leah is just a sacrifice of the lord's family, an experimental subject created to make the lord's family continue to be powerful.
Being born was not what Leah wanted, and that powerful power was not what Leah wanted either.
"Hey, why do you think humans pursue power so recklessly? The reason why humans are humans is because they are not as strong as demons, elves, or beastmen. However, humans also have their own wisdom advantages. Why should they give up their advantages and pursue power that does not belong to them?"
Just as Bishop Rhett was sighing like this, he heard Helett mutter something.
"After all, does the succubus really have a neon sign that lights up? Your information doesn't mention it."
Hearing what Blacklett said, Bishop Leiter felt mixed emotions.
It turns out that this kid just finished reading the information without saying a word. He was not thinking about the sins of mankind, but was thinking about the neon sign! ?
This kid! He is a talent.
Chapter 5 Pick up a succubus and take it home
"Well, now you know that Leah is special. The succubus power in her body is unstable. She can't control it herself. If she's not careful, she can easily absorb the magic power of those around her."
"However, the amount of magic power that Leah can absorb is limited. She can easily absorb the magic power of people at the same level or weaker than her. When facing people who are stronger than her, it will be more difficult for her to absorb the magic power of the other party."
"But Leah is currently a stage three magician. Only stage four magicians in the entire city can withstand her rampage. The lord and I are both stage four magicians, and you, a monster, are also stage four. Moreover, your magic power is stronger than mine. That's why I decided to let you team up with Leah. You must take good care of her."
Bishop Rhett's meaningful gaze fell on Helett, and the tone of his voice was a little strange.
Especially in the last sentence, Bishop Rhett emphasized his tone.
Blacklett's eyes turned cold and he asked.
"You mean, the lord has given up on Leah? He thinks she's a failure?"
Seeing that Helet was so sharp, Bishop Leiter smiled with satisfaction.
It was easy to talk to this guy, but he did not directly answer Blacklett's question.
"The Lord's family is currently researching other test subjects. Because of the irreparable damage to her body caused by the experiment, Miss Liya will not live more than a year."
"No one can go against the family's decision, not even the Lord. I happen to be friends with the Lord."
"You know what happened next. This bishop and you have a good relationship, hehehe."
Although he did not directly answer Helett's question, the meaning of Bishop Leiter's words was clear enough.
In the past, the Thor family's experimental subjects did not live past the age of twelve. Even though Leah only lived a few years longer than the previous experimental subjects, the Thor family chose to give up on Leah, a failure.
Letting Leah out to see the world before dying was the last kindness he gave to Leah.
The lord himself therefore asked Bishop Rhett to take care of Leah, which was why Bishop Rhett wanted to arrange for Leah to team up with Blacklett.
He also selected two honest men, Pierce and Kurt, to make up the number of people for Black Light. Together with Raphne, it would be enough to form a minimum team of five people.
As a result, Bishop Rhett did not expect that Helett would take the initiative to find Leah, saving his energy.
"Okay, there's no problem with me taking care of Leah. But I need to remind you that Leah is already a member of my team before you ask."
Blacklett didn't like having any dealings with the nobles. He had seen the ugly faces of the nobles many times when he was in the orphanage.
At this time, he also stated that his contact with Leah was completely voluntary, and it was not because Bishop Rhett asked him to let Leah join his team. This point must be clearly distinguished.
Leah is the victim of the lord's family, as if Leah is not a human being, but an object created by the nobles.
On the surface, Leah has the noble status of a lord's daughter, but in fact, Leah is more miserable than orphans Blacklet and Raphne.
"Yes, I know. I'll leave Leah to you. Don't worry about any troubles with the nobles. I will take care of it."
Bishop Rhett nodded reassuringly, expressing his unconditional trust in Blacklett.
"Okay, are you done? If you're done, I'll leave!"
After finishing the business, Hei Lai Te stood up and walked out the door without any hesitation. He knew everything he needed to know.
"Hey! Open the door slowly! I haven't put out my cigarette yet, you..."
Without waiting for Bishop Rhett to put on his serious and formal business appearance as an archbishop, Hei Lai Te opened the door and walked out.
Leah and Raphne, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, came over immediately, and Pierce and Kurt also pricked up their ears.
Before they could ask if Helett was reprimanded by Bishop Leiter, Bishop Leiter's voice was heard from the confessional.
"Ms. Liya, please come in for a moment."
Leah glanced at you, looking a little uneasy.
"It's okay. Bishop Rhett just told me not to fall in love too early. It's not a big deal."
After being told this by Blacklett, Leah's pretty face turned red and she couldn't help but laugh, and she also felt relaxed.
"Ah."
Nodding to Hei Lai Te, Leah then turned and entered the confessional.
Raphney on the side saw all of this. When she saw Leah come in, she stepped on Blacklett's foot and glared at him with bared teeth.
"So what did Bishop Rhett tell you? Don't try to fool me about this being a puppy love."
Raphne knew Blacklett and Bishop Rhett, so the excuse just now certainly could not fool Raphne.
"Nothing. Bishop Rhett just told me that Leah is more miserable than the rest of us and asked me to take better care of her. She will live with us from now on."
Blacklet had nothing to hide from Raphne.
Even Pierce and Kurt, who were nobles, knew some things a long time ago, and Blacklett spoke directly without hesitation.
"Oh, I know."
Upon hearing this, Raphney withdrew her foot from stepping on Blacklet and nodded seriously.
Although she didn't know more details, Raphne understood clearly that Leah was pitiful.
After all, as the lord's daughter, she had to eat and live with them, which was tantamount to being demoted to a commoner and losing her aristocratic privileges.
[At this time, you didn't know that Bishop Rhett had shown Leah the video of your conversation with him, which prevented you from being misunderstood by Leah in the future.]
