You, a dragon, are farming in hell

"You...you..."

The spirit Caroline saw that with a gentle squeeze of the enormous claw, the demon that she found slightly troublesome turned to ash.

With a single grasp, the demon that had possessed Bishop Harrison's body was killed, and the claw wreathed in crimson lightning vanished into thin air.

The spirit Caroline turned around, and then she saw a cold, domineering vertical pupil appear in the blind eye of the one-eyed bald man.

The vertical pupil stared at the statue for a moment, then disappeared.

This astonishing change left everyone in the temple momentarily stunned.

Xavier, kneeling on one knee, was panting heavily; no one knew what he had just gone through.

No one knows how much pressure he was under just now.

Upon hearing Xavier's heavy breathing, Vivian was the first to recover from the shock of what had just happened, and she quickly helped Xavier up.

Is that the power of the Lord of Thunder?

The demon that had possessed the bishop's body was instantly reduced to ashes by the Lord of Thunder...

Father Ryder and Deacon Felix of the temple looked at the remaining black ash in front of the pulpit and wanted to ask, "Where did their Bishop Harrison go?"

But they didn't have the courage to ask.

What happened just now was truly terrifying.

Without any back-and-forth fighting, the enormous claw that appeared out of nowhere grabbed the demon that had possessed Bishop Harrison's body, and with a gentle squeeze, the demon turned to ash...

However… their Bishop Harrison… seems to have turned to ashes as well…

With the death of a bishop, Crescent City will surely send high-ranking clergy to the North to investigate.

Chapter 115 Kid, aren't you going to give me an explanation?

Father Ryder and Felix were wondering how they would explain to the high-ranking clergy from Crescent City that the bishop had been possessed by a demon and then turned to ash.

Xavier, kneeling on one knee, picked up the blindfold from the ground, put it on, and searched for Princess Sophia.

"What are you looking for?"

"Looking for Princess Sophia."

“Here, here, I’m here.” Sophia, who had been crouching behind Xavier, stood up with her hands raised. She had been hiding behind Xavier to avoid being seen by the dragon Diding.

Xavier was tall enough to shield her from view.

The still-present Heroic Spirit Caroline's gaze fell upon Sophia. The moment she saw Sophia, astonishment flashed in her golden eyes. This...this...how is this brat human?!

Isn't she a kid?

How did it turn into a human?

It possessed the body of a human girl who looked exactly like her?

It doesn't look like it at all.

This is clearly the little devil's own body.

"Xavier, what do you want with me?"

"Next time something like this happens, you should pray to that person. I'm scared..."

Xavier raised his hand and touched his bald head. This time, when he prayed to Lord Trist, the Lord of Thunder, the Lord's large paw smacked down on his bald head.

He also saw disdain in Lord Distin's cold, domineering eyes.

Moreover, the moment that adult's large hand landed on his head, he felt as if that adult was saying, 'You better give me a reason, or I'll crush your head.'

That's terrifying.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, that person isn't fierce at all."

"..."

The demon, along with Bishop Harrison who had made a pact with the demon, was turned to ashes by that man. You tell me that man wasn't fierce at all?

And right in front of the statue of the moon goddess... he turned that bishop to ashes.

Isn't that fierce?

"Kid, shouldn't you give me an explanation?"

The spirit Caroline looked at Sophia floating in the air and confirmed that the little brat was now human.

The reason she was floating was because she was cursed.

Everything will be fine as long as the curse is broken.

As a heroic spirit, she can break the curse on the little devil.

But now she's more curious about why the little devil is a human, not a ghost.

And there was also the way the bald guy addressed the kid earlier.

Princess Sophia...

Those who can be addressed as 'Your Highness' are either princesses, imperial princesses, or saintesses of some temple.

It's obvious that the imp is not a saintess of the Moon Goddess Temple.

Then she can only be a princess.

If it were a princess, her guards couldn't possibly be that weak.

Before she became a Heroic Spirit, she knew how strong the princess's guards were.

"Sister Caroline, there are too many people here. I'll explain to you later."

The Heroic Spirit Caroline stared into Sophia's eyes for a while, then nodded. "Alright, summon me tonight, and we'll have a good talk."

"Oh."

The spirit Caroline glanced at the ashes below the podium, raised her hand and unleashed a golden light, causing the ashes to vanish completely.

Demons possess extremely strange abilities; even if they turn to ashes, they may reappear.

Moreover, the true form of that demon had not fully descended into the human world; its true form was still in Hell.

However, its true form must be in bad shape now, its strength greatly diminished.

The spirit Caroline thought of the dragon claw wreathed in crimson lightning and the purplish-blue vertical pupil she had just seen.

That's... Didin, the dragon from hell?

Is the hell dragon Destin really that powerful?

She felt that... even if the demon's true form descended upon the human world, the hellish dragon Diding could crush it to death with a single claw.

Father Ryder and Deacon Felix helped each other to Sophia's side.

“Your Highness, I apologize for my previous misunderstanding. I never imagined that Bishop Harrison would make a pact with the devil and sell his soul to him.”

“Your bishops not only sold their souls to the devil, but also took away several years of your lifespan as clergy.”

The devil can make Harrison young because the devil transferred your lifespans to your Bishop Harrison.

Taking lifespans from you clergy is probably the last bit of kindness your bishop has left.

At least he didn't choose to drain a clergyman's life force.

After saying this, the Heroic Spirit Caroline glanced at Sophia, then turned into golden specks of light and vanished.

Sophia's face lit up with sudden realization. No wonder Bishop Harrison had suddenly become younger. Before, she had thought that demons were really that powerful, able to turn an old man into a young man.

It turns out that the demon had extracted the lifespans of other clergy members and transferred them to Harrison...

The demon's ability is also terrifying.

"It's alright. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe that the bishop could be possessed by a demon."

Sophia had originally wanted to discuss the tax payment with the bishop of the Crescent Moon Church, but now that the bishop was gone, she didn't know who to talk to about the tax payment.

Thinking of Bishop Harrison, Sophia suddenly felt a little guilty.

"Your Highness Sophia, our bishop..."

“Ah, Deacon Felix, I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now. As for the matter of your temple paying taxes, I will come to the Crescent Church to discuss this matter once you have a new bishop.”

After saying that, Sophia floated towards the temple entrance. When she reached the entrance, she suddenly remembered another purpose of coming to the Crescent Moon Church: to borrow herbal books from them.

She floated back to Felix and said, "Deacon Felix, I would like to borrow some books from your Crescent Moon Church that record various herbs. Would that be convenient?"

“It’s convenient. If Your Highness Sophia has something to attend to, please go back first. We will deliver the organized herbal medicine books to Your Highness’s residence later.”

Both morally and logically, the Crescent Moon Church had no reason to refuse.

Not to mention that this princess just did their Crescent Moon Church a great favor.

Felix felt that their Crescent Moon Church needed to re-evaluate this princess.

Previously, all they knew was that this princess could summon skeletons.

I wonder if this princess can summon heroic spirits.

Little did they know that this princess could summon something even more terrifying than a heroic spirit.

Felix suspected that the enormous claw that had turned the demon to ash might be the 'deity' worshipped by the princess before him.

It turns out that there really are believers who can invoke 'divine spirits'.

But... that terrifying, enormous claw of the 'god'... was filled with an aura of destruction...

Not sacred, but domineering.

“That would be wonderful. Hopefully, Deacon Felix can deliver the books before dark.”

"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to prepare it right away."

Sophia left the temple satisfied, with Vivian supporting Xavier as they followed behind her.

"Xavier, do you think it's too late for me to swear allegiance to the 'Lord of Thunder' now?"

Chapter 116 Is there still any point in believing in gods?

"I think you'd better not swear allegiance so casually."

"why?"

"Because begging that sir to save your life is not a fun thing."

At this point, Xavier paused, looked into Vivian's eyes, and said seriously, "If you casually pray or beg from that person out of curiosity, it may bring you disaster."

Vivian laughed awkwardly; her desire to pledge allegiance to the 'Lord of Thunder' was indeed born of curiosity.

I want to see if the Lord of Thunder will respond to her prayers after she swears allegiance.

Judging from Xavier's words, if she truly prayed to the 'Lord of Thunder' out of curiosity, that great being might... punish her?

Xavier's underlying message is that she lacks reverence.

Sophia prickled up her ears, eavesdropping on Xavier and Vivian's conversation.

Is Lord Destin the Dragon really that terrifying?

Perhaps it's because she's spent so much time with Lord Distin.

"Your Highness."

"what happened?"

"Should we announce to the entire Northern Territory that the bishop of the New Moon Church has made a pact with a demon?"

Sophia glanced at Anna, thought for a moment, and shook her head: "Not for now. We'll see if we need to announce it to the entire North when I discuss the tax payment with the Church of the Crescent."

If the Crescent Moon Church had paid its taxes honestly, she wouldn't have announced what happened today.

If the Crescent Moon Church opposes her, she will use this matter to threaten them.

Then she'll say, "Your Church of the Crescent Moon wouldn't want the whole North to know about the bishop's pact with the demon, would you?"

Once these words are spoken, won't the Crescent Moon Church obediently pay their taxes?

Oh dear, it seems to have become a bit gloomy. No, no, it must be because I didn't get any sun today.
