I glanced at the time on the wall and realized it was already noon.

"That's all for today. Master and Xiao Mo, I'll introduce you to the others!"

Mo Li led the two to the hall, where Shiori had prepared a sumptuous lunch for everyone to enjoy.

"Everyone, these two are my newly recruited family members!"

"Yo, I am the King of Knights..."

Mordred had prepared a long speech, but upon seeing that familiar figure, all her words vanished, and her eyes filled with rage.

Artoria's reaction upon seeing Mordred wasn't particularly strong; she simply said:

"So it's Lord Mordred!"

"Father, Father?! What are you doing here? And what happened to your armor...?"

Looking at the composed Artoria before him, Mordred's composure vanished; he had never seen his father in this form before.

"Now that you have become Master's familiar, you must do your best, understand?"

It was the same familiar tone, the same indifferent expression.

Artoria's attitude seemed to ignite Mordred's anger. Despite being his only son (daughter), he had never been able to gain her recognition.

"Why is it that even though I've tried so hard, you still don't agree with me?"

If it were Blue Saber, there would probably only be one answer: the perfect king doesn't understand people's hearts.

But now standing before Mordred is Black Saber, also a King of Knights, but vastly different from the original.

"I have never disagreed with you!"

"Nonsense! Then why did you put me at the bottom of the Knights of the Round Table? Gawain, Lancelot, Tristan—what makes me inferior to them!"

"You do not have the qualities of a king. If you were to become king, it would only bring destruction to Britain!"

Artoria's words struck Mordred like a thunderbolt, leaving him stunned.

The term "rebellious knight" is a general term used to describe Mordred's actions, as her rebellion led to King Arthur's death and the destruction of Britain.

Artoria never denies anyone, even if that person is a child created by her own sister.

Chapter 429 The Hero Appears, Nia and Seven Sins Suffer a Setback

The town of Semur, the Grand Church.

Seven Sins, now a priest, and Nia, disguised as a nun, were sitting on a bench, idly passing the time.

"I can't take it anymore, I want to go back to Demon King's Castle!"

"Wait a minute, Erya, have you forgotten our mission?"

Seven Sins quickly stepped forward to stop her, even though she herself was extremely unwilling to stay there any longer.

Keep in mind, they've been infiltrating this place for almost three months and haven't even seen a single hero.

Erya seemed to have reached her limit; she was getting increasingly depressed from being around the people in the church every day.

"That damned hero, I'll teach him a lesson when I see him!"

"Calm down, Erya, it's almost time for the pilgrimage, and those two brats will be here soon too."

The two little devils mentioned by the Seven Deadly Sins refer to the two helpers that the gods found for the hero.

As soon as he finished speaking, the church doors opened, and a lively boy with brown hair wearing silver armor and a girl with red curly hair wearing a cloak walked in.

"Father, we've come to bother you again today. Is there still no news of the hero?"

"Yes, they should have arrived long ago!"

Seven Sins nodded, her lips twitching slightly; she no longer wanted to face those two brats.

She wants to go back to 893 and be with Megumin and Yoshino. Who wants to stay here and take care of them?

After the daily ritual prayers ended, Nia suddenly stood up, turned her head and gave Seven Sins a look.

The Seven Deadly Sins immediately became alert; Nia's reaction meant that the hero and the goddess had arrived.

Sure enough, not long after, the doors of the Great Church opened again, and the hero Ryuguuin Seiya and the goddess Ristarte walked in.

"How sacred! I can recognize you even in your human form! You must be the goddess? We have been waiting for you here, inspired by the gods!"

Seven Sins feigned tears welling up in his eyes, and pointed at the two people beside him, saying:

"These two are descendants of the dragon race who have inherited the bloodline of the dragon. They will become your and the hero's companions, and together they will defeat the Demon King!"

This was the first time that Seven Sins and Nia had met the Hero. On the surface, he didn't seem like a big deal, so how did this guy manage to injure Artoria?

Just as the two were pondering, Ryuguuin Seiya walked straight up to Nanami.

As Ryuguin Seiya approached step by step, a hint of panic flashed through Nanami's heart, but on the surface, she still maintained a holy expression and bowed respectfully.

"This must be the Hero! I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself first! I am Father Mars—"

Before the Seven Sins could finish announcing their names, Seiya took out holy water from his robes and poured it over her head without saying a word.

Holy water poured down, splashing everywhere.

Seven Sins, covered in holy water, stood frozen in place.

"Holy, holy, holy! What are you doing?!"

Lisda panicked; who would pour holy water on someone's head the moment they met?

Seven Sins thought that the hero had discovered her true identity, and her face immediately darkened. She exchanged a glance with Nia and then transformed back into her original witch form.

"Aaaaaaahhhhhh! The priest has turned into a witch!"

Not only Ristarte, but even the two dragon boys and girls standing nearby were somewhat shocked.

Although the Seven Sins had become demons, the cheap holy water bought from the store could not harm her in any way.

She could use holy water to bathe whenever she wanted.

However, Ryuguin Seiya's actions just now completely enraged the Seven Sins, causing them to revert to their original state regardless of the consequences.

"Yay, yay, I knew it would be like this."

"Divine Might Armor - Part Two! The Whispering Manual!"

Seeing this, Niya also summoned the Whispering Scroll, which floated in front of her, and looked at everyone with a wary expression.

If they had known it would turn out this way, they wouldn't have had to stay here for three months.

Erya looked at the brave man with great admiration and praised him:

"You're quite impressive, hero. I was planning to take advantage of your lowered guard and wipe you all out, but I didn't expect..."

Then Nia opened the pages of the Whispering Book and summoned many magical beasts that surrounded everyone.

"But it doesn't matter, I'll just send you all to the Yellow Springs like this. I wonder what the young man will reward me with!"

"Stop wasting your breath on them, Niya, you fake witch!"

Seven Sins gently waved his magic broom, and the cathedral instantly transformed into a dream castle, with all the decorations inside replaced by items from fairy tales.

"Be careful, Seiya! They are one of the Demon King's personal retinue, and they are even more powerful than the ones we encountered last time!"

"Hmph, it's alright, I've already taken care of everything!"

As soon as Ryuguuin Seiya finished speaking, all the magical beasts surrounding them let out a miserable cry and turned back into pages.

Seeing this, Erya broke out in a cold sweat; she had never seen such a strong person before.

In just a moment, all the summoned monsters were annihilated.

"Damn it, which link went wrong? My disguise was flawless."

“It’s just a simple deduction,” Ryuguuin Seiya replied.

"what?"

“First of all, the priest is the oldest-looking person here, which means he will become immortal sooner or later, which is why I splashed you with holy water.”

Upon hearing this illogical reason, Seven Sins' lips twitched. She really didn't want to admit that she could be seen through by this kind of guy.

This isn't reasoning at all. Furthermore, this idea is both arbitrary and inhumane, and it also carries a discriminatory connotation against the elderly.

"There's no other way, Seven Sins. Let's retreat first and leave the rest to Yasaka Kurenai and the others."

After witnessing Ryuguin Seiya's strength, Nia was already having second thoughts.

The two of them alone are no match for the hero, so they have no choice but to retreat.

"Alright, here's another piece of bad news for you: the army of the undead will be attacking this town tomorrow. You should enjoy the little time you have left!"

Upon hearing this news, Ristarte trembled slightly and cautiously looked at Seiya.

Seiya's expression was no different from usual. After Nanami finished speaking, he simply nodded.

"Hmm, I've gathered enough information from this guy. Now let's take care of him. Since he's a familiar of the Demon King, I need to be even more careful than usual..."

The moment Ristarte heard Seiya's murmur, her expression became even more terrifying than before.

"Everyone, run! Aa ...

Ristarte screamed and pushed the two dragon descendants (dedede) on the back, quickly running outside.

"Wait, why are we running away? The enemy is no match for that hero!"

"You're wrong, the truly terrifying part is just beginning!"

Lista, with a look of lingering fear, spoke to the two in a terrifying tone:

"Listen up, everyone! That hero—he's going all out in cleaning up the mess than he did in battle! Uh, look, I've only just started talking and he's already at it! Aa ...

A deafening explosion came from behind; it was Seiya's fire magic.

The moment Rista opened the church doors, a storm triggered by high-level magic blew everyone out of the church.

After that, explosions and tremors continued to be heard from the church, and flames shot out from the shattered stained glass.

A few minutes later, the Dream Castle transformed back into the Church of Samuel, and then collapsed with a loud crash.

As the smoke and dust cleared, Ryuguin Seiya slowly emerged from the flames, frowning as he spoke:

"We made a mistake; they actually got away!"

Chapter 430 The Undead Legion, One Man Against Ten Thousand

"So, you managed to escape back in such a sorry state by taking advantage of Rokuro's sealing technique!"

Looking at the disheveled and covered-up Seven Sins and Nia standing below, Mo Li finally managed a smile.

7. Noticing that Mo Li seemed to be mocking them, Er Ya immediately stood up.

"Young man, that hero doesn't play by the rules at all. Who starts by pouring holy water on a priest's head right away?"

"Didn't I tell you to be careful? Ryuguuin Seiya's behavior is very different from that of previous heroes."

"It's completely pathological, okay?"

Yi Qizui couldn't help but complain that she had taken on this mission on her own, but she still failed in the end.

However, this was within Mo Li's expectations; he simply wanted to test the other party's strength.

"They actually defeated Artoria, Nia, and Nanami in succession. It seems their strength is not to be underestimated!"

"Second Sister is even more devilish than us devils!"

Nia clung to Takamiya Mana, frantically wiping her snot and tears all over her clothes.

Zhenna pushed Erya away with a look of disgust, and at the same time turned her gaze to Mo Li.

"Lord Mo Li, I'll go and meet him!"

"No need. Did you leak any information about Yasaka Kurenai?"

"I've already told him, but young man, why did you tell the hero about the Demon King's army's movements?"

Erya asked, puzzled, "Isn't this equivalent to revealing all my trump cards?"

It should be noted that Ryuguuin Seiya possesses the ability to destroy all magical beasts with a single blow, and defeating the undead army led by Yasaka Kurenai was effortless for him.

Mo Li smiled slightly and stood up from the Demon King's throne.

"Given his personality, he'll definitely eliminate the undead army before they reach the town. I'll seize this opportunity to wipe him out completely!"
