Chapter 318: [God's Favorite Child]'s Night Visit (Part One)
The golden sunlight soon disappeared on the horizon, and the golden waves in the river also lost their color as the sun went down.
Before mid-night, Fei went into the tents of his men and checked up on them. After more than half a day of rest, Drogba and Torres almost completely recovered. After all, Fei used both [Health Potion] and his aura to treat them.
Fei didn't use [Health Potion] and his aura this time; rather, he let their bodies to self-recover the last bit of injuries.
However, Cech was still in the weird condition. He was breathing normally, and his heart was pumping normally as well. Fei still couldn't wake him up or make any new discoveries.
"Looks like I need to get some more experienced doctors to come and check this out. Or, I can wait until this competition is over and go find that [Silver Armored Vicious Sword] myself to figure out what is going."
Fei told others to take care of Cech, and he then let Pierce and Drogba to temporarily take over the military control of Chambord's campsite.
When it was mid-night, Fei switched to Assassin Mode. After he inspected the campsite in secrecy, he disappeared into the Moro Mountains. In less than ten minutes, he appeared in the [Huge Pit Battlefield] that was on the outer layer of Moro Mountains. Many days had passed, but all the magic arrays still tightly protected this battlefield earnestly as powerful magic energy flowed inside of them; it felt like they were trying to trap this battlefield inside.
Although he knew that the mysterious man wasn't going to come anymore and the magic arrays won't help him in terms of training the spiritual power, he still wanted to come here and see it again habitually.
On top of that, there was another important reason; he was here to erase all of the traces of him. For some reason, he felt like this was the only way to erase some kind of danger at an early stage.
After one hour, Fei finally erased all of his own traces carefully. The only things that could be found on the battlefield were the Fist Spiritual Spatial Seals and auras of that mysterious man and that mysterious assassin.
Standing on a hill that was outside the battlefield, Fei looked across the mountains as the wind fluttered his hair. Fei thought about that father-like and teacher-like mysterious man; he knew he wasn't going to come anymore. After he took another glance at the battlefield, he dashed off the mountains and went back to Chambord's campsite.
Perhaps he would never come here again.
...
"Your majesty, you are finally back!" Oleg who was patrolling around with the soldiers of Chambord ran over to Fei after he saw him. This fatty looked very anxious, and there was obviously some urgent matter that came up.
"Who came?" Fei saw a delicate magic carriage that was emitting a silver light parked inside Chambord's campsite. There were about 60 cavaliers in silver armors and black capes guarding around the carriage; a red cross could be clearly seen on their chest plates. Fei was confused: "They are from the Church?"
"Yeah, Your Majesty. Big characters! [God's Favorite Child] Mr. Kaka as well as the accompanying Red-Robe Priest Balesi. They have been waiting for you for a while now."
Oleg was obviously afraid of the people from the Holy Church. After he saw the king's return, he quickly ran over and whispered into Fei's ear.

Shortly after Fei left the campsite, Mr. Kaka, Priest Balesi, and another accompanying priest from St. Petersburg came. They said that they were here to see the king of Chambord. Since Fei wasn't here, they had been waiting in a tent for more than an hour.
Fei nodded and didn't really show any weird expressions. Although he calmly asked Oleg to go and report his arrival, he was actually very shocked.
For some reason, [God's Favorite Child] Mr. Kaka was always interested in him. He sent Fei invitations when Fei fought with the four Executive Knights, and he invited Fei again when Priest Balesi went to the headquarter of Blood-Edge. If anyone else was treated like this by the Holy Church, they would have accepted the invitation and went over as fast as they can. However, Fei tried his best to avoid it; he still hadn't paid a visit to [God's Favorite Child] Mr. Kaka who was from the Holy Mountain and was just passing by St. Petersburg.
Chapter 318: [God's Favorite Child]'s Night Visit (Part Two)
There were several reasons why Fei didn't want to go. First of all, Fei was influenced by his previous life experience, and he didn't believe in gods. Second of all, Priest Zola and his henchmen who resided in Chambord were arrogant and overbearing; they left a bad impression in Fei's mind. As a result, Fei didn't like this huge powerhouse – Holy Church at all. Third of all, Fei had the power of Necromancer from Diablo World, and he used it before when he was defending Chambord in the first battle he ever got into. Although one character's power won't leak when Fei was using another character, Fei wanted to stay far away from the Holy Church just in case.
In the last few months, Fei had already known more about the Holy Church compared to before.
The Holy Church hated the power of the Undead Magic; they hated it so much that it felt like the Undead Magic had ruined their families. As soon as traces of Undead Magic was found, the Holy Church would implement cruel Iron-Blood Policy where they would rather kill a thousand innocent people than letting one Undead Mage escape. On Azeroth Continent, people were drowned in rivers, burned on crosses, or hang on trees at any given second for being related to Undead Mages...Without exaggeration, if someone said that Chambord was connected with an Undead Mage, most of Chambord's royalties would be killed if not completely wiped out. The same thing would happen if the person who reported it was a beggar on the street corner. After all, the Iron-Blood Policy of the Holy Church would be 100% upheld.
Fei really wanted to avoid this [God's Favorite Child] Mr. Kaka, but that man looked for him proactively.

"Damn! Are all the enemies supposed to meet each other?" Fei thought.
The cavaliers who were guarding the magic carriage looked at Fei with hostility and mockery as Fei walked toward the tent where Chambord hosted its guests. In the eyes of these cavaliers, Fei was a sinner for not even showing up to Mr. Kaka's invitations. And when the honorable Mr. Kaka came here to this small campsite, this small king even dared to keep him waiting.
"Haha, King Alexander. It has been tough, but we finally met!"
As soon as Fei stepped into the tent, Priest Balesi's loud laughter sounded.
Fei looked up and saw this Top-Tier Priest who he met before standing up from his seat and walking towards him. The priest had a warm smile on his face, and he was greeting Fei politely. The elder was still wearing the old robe that was filled with white and black patches as well as a pair of shoes made from barks and grasses. His white hair and white beard gave off a timeless aura. Although he appeared wise, there was still a light haughty feel to him. However, this haughtiness was well hidden that it was hard to discover.
Priest Balesi was a powerful person who Fei met in the underground cave inside Blood-Edge's headquarter.
He was also a Red-Robe Top-Tier Priest from the Holy Church.
This elder would attract anyone's attention didn't matter where he was.
However, Fei's attention was grabbed by a man who was sitting beside Balesi. The young man was sitting at a more honorable seat, and he was smiling as he stood up.
This young man was in his twenties. His brown hair was fluttering a little, and his facial features perfectly showcased what it meant to be handsome. With his clear eyes filled with earnestness and sincere, people would automatically like him. His body was slim, but he didn't look weak. His broad chest and strong arms demonstrated his perfect physique. He was wearing a black and white standard church robe; it was clean and simple. However, the golden strips around the wrist of his robe added a noble aura to him. Overall, he was so bright that it looked like he was the son of the gods who got left behind in this world.
Without an introduction, Fei knew that this man must be [God's Favorite Child] Mr. Kaka who was from the Holy Mountain by just looking at him.
After seeing how perfect this Mr. Kaka was, Fei who was very proud of himself even felt a little jealous.
This was a perfect man.
For some reason, Fei suddenly thought of Dominguez when he saw this Mr. Kaka. Both Dominguez and Kaka were so handsome that it was shocking. A single glance from them would make numerous girls and woman scream and faint. However, they were a little different. The Second Prince was more laid back and more chill. On the other hand, Kaka was more bright and upbeat.
One of them was like the moon, and the other one was like the sun; they were all special in their own ways.
In their worlds, all other people were like the stars. Didn't matter how bright the stars tried to shine, they could never be compared to these two.
Chapter 319: The Tense Atmosphere (Part One)
"King Alexander, we have finally met." Kaka's magnetic voice sounded. Mixed with his handsome appearance, he was showing a very special charm.
"Your Highness, it is an honor to finally meet you….." Fei quickly walked up and started to chat with this handsome Kaka. With an earnest smile on his face, Fei apologized for not being able to visit Kaka earlier. In his words, he was really busy with administrative duties.
As he explained himself, he tried to inspect how powerful this Kaka was. However, Fei wasn't able to detect anything. It felt like this young man was just like an ordinary civilian, but Fei knew that it was because this [God's Favorite Child] was too powerful for him to see through.
Although Kaka's identity was really noble, he treated people with fairness and gentleness; it seemed like he didn't mind Fei's previous declines to his invitations. After everyone had sat down accordingly, Kaka smiled and said: "I have always heard that the king of Chambord is heroic and generous. You had established the Three-Sector Six-Department structure as well as the Law of the Twelve Tables. You managed to turn a weak and dying Chambord into a prosperous level 1 affiliated kingdom; it is miracle work! In addition to that, you have shown your unparalleled strength in this competition and gained a lot of fans. I always wanted to meet you in person, and that was why I tried to invite you over several times. However, I forgot that Your Majesty has been busy coordinating all the matches. It was my fault, and I apologize for causing troubles for you."
Didn't matter if he meant it or not, what Kaka said made Fei feel very comfortable.
From what Kaka had said, it seemed like this [God's Favorite Child] had done his research. He knew exactly what happened at Chambord to details.
Soon, Kaka continued with the smile: "Tomorrow is a very important day in the competition, and I shouldn't be here bothering you. However, I'm leaving St. Petersburg tonight, and I really want to chat with you before I leave. That is why I came here at this time of the day, and I hope that you won't get mad at me."
"You are being too humble, Your Highness. It is my honor to have you here." Kaka's image was getting better and better in Fei's mind.
In the rumors that Fei heard from other nobles in St, Petersburg, this [God's Favorite Child] Kaka who was from the Holy Mountain was very mysterious and never showed himself in public. In the last two weeks, only Emperor Yassin and the Bishop of the Holy Church who looked over Zenit Region met him. All other people didn't even get the chance of seeing him from afar let alone meeting him... "Why is such a person so humble and polite in front of me?" Fei thought.
Although Fei had a lot of questions, his impression of this [God's Favorite Child] was very good. Kaka was very humble and gentle like a warm jade. "Gentlemen are like jades," Fei recalled an old saying and thought that it perfectly described Kaka.
For a moment, Fei and Kaka were having a great conversation. All other people including Priest Balesi were listening and didn't interrupt.
Surprisingly, Fei found that Kaka's thoughts and beliefs were very similar to his. He felt like he found the perfect confidant.
Ever since Fei arrived on this Azeroth Continent, he was forced to change and adapt to the worldly view and morals of this world. However, since the traditions here were very different than the traditions in his previous life, Fei couldn't really talk about the beliefs and ideologies he had with people on Azeroth Continent or people in Diablo World. But today, a lot of what Kaka had talked about reflected beliefs that were very similar to Fei's. Closer to the end of their conversation, they were having so much fun that excitement showed on their faces.
Fei was so thrilled that he waved his hands, moved a heavy stone table, and positioned it in front of him and Kaka. Like two great friends, they started drinking and chatting even more. Because time flew when they were having fun, they already downed four big bottles of top-quality wine that Elder Princess gave Fei as a present.
This scene purely demonstrated what it meant by "Drinking thousands of cups of wine is too little when you have a real confidant." (Old Chinese saying)
The warriors of Chambord all looked at each other in surprise. They had never seen the king act this way before. It was the first time that the king was having so much fun chatting with an outsider. Priest Balesi, as well as other priests and cavaliers, were surprised as well. If they didn't see it with their own eyes, they won't believe that the humble, gentle, and haughty Mr. Kaka would show this side of him to someone who he just met; especially when that person's identity was only a little king of an affiliated kingdom – of course, among the people from the Holy Church, Balesi knew a little about Fei's other identity.

"I heard that you have also mastered the Holy Power of the Holy Church? Is that true?" Kaka asked Fei this question near the end; it was hard to tell if Kaka asked this question intentionally or not.
"I do have some understanding of it," Fei said as he switched to Paladin Mode. The golden aura flowed around him, and he appeared kind, generous, noble, and gentle. This energy was exactly the same as the Holy Power that the people of the Holy Church tried to cultivate. However, it seemed like Fei's power was purer, and the entire space inside the tent got brighter and more cheerful.
The Holy Church didn't prohibit people from practicing the Holy Power; instead, they actually encouraged people and called them the subjects of the gods. Therefore, Fei didn't hide his Paladin Power. Moreover, Fei had used his Paladin's skills before and many people witnessed it; it would be hard for him to hide it.
"God! I didn't expect you to have such an advanced understanding of the Holy Power." Kaka's reaction was very real. As if he had confirmed something, his eyes lit up as he clapped and laughed: "I was planning to invite you to join the Holy Church, but it seems like I was planning unnecessary work! Haha! No need!"
Fei smiled and didn't say anything.
The king knew what Kaka meant.
The color of his "Holy Power" must have misguided this [God's Favorite Child]. Just like the Priest Zola at Chambord, Kaka thought that Fei was also a [God's Favorite Child]. After these days of learning, Fei understood how important the color of the Holy Power was to the Holy Church. There had never been a "wild" [God's Favorite Child] before. Before the [God's Favorite Children] were born, the god-tier device in the Holy Mountain would detect them, and the forces of the Holy Church would try to find them and recruit them into the Church for future development.
The identity of [God's Favorite Child] was really noble. It was said that they were the representatives of gods, and they all had the chance to become the supreme leader of the Holy Church – the Pope. These [God's Favorite Children] had one special and obvious characteristic – their Holy Power would be gold compared to the silver color of others.

Nueey
Fei was the first "wild" [God's Favorite Child] in this history of Azeroth.
Unless he met the Pope who knew exactly how many [God's Favorite Children] there were and the names of them, Fei would be able to fool everyone else with his Golden "Holy Power".
It was obvious! Even Kaka who was a [God's Favorite Child] even believed Fei's other identity.
Beside Kaka who was smiling joyously, the Priest Balesi squinted his eyes.
As if he was getting to know the king for the second time, he carefully observed him; he didn't even try to hide his rude inspection. What made Fei curious was that well-hidden murderous intent and hostility could be sensed from Balesi's eyes that were calm a moment ago. If Fei didn't switch back to Barbarian Mode that was extremely sensitive to hostility, he would be fool by this elder and won't be able to detect it.
Behind Balesi, the few armored cavaliers were shocked by what they saw. Their expressions changed the most as a sense of respect and hostility appeared on their faces. However, the hostility on them was more obvious, and even people like Drogba, Pierce, and Robbin sensed it.
The atmosphere in the tent got tense as people from both parties got a little nervous.
As if the cold north wind blew through the curtain, the temperature inside the tent dropped a lot; it was bone-chilling.
The only two people who seemed unaffected by all this was Fei and Kaka. As if nothing had happened, they looked at each other and smiled as they chugged down their wine.
At this time, a fragrance appeared as a series of footsteps sounded outside the tent. After the curtain door was opened, a person walked in and brightened up the tent.
It was the future queen, Angela.
Kaka felt like his world lit up, and he sensed a feel of spring despite the fact that it was still winter.
As a noble [God's Favorite Child], Kaka who had left the Holy Mountain and been traveling through the continent for five years was invited to all kinds of parties and balls as an honorable guest. He had been to numerous upper-class dinners, and he had met numerous beautiful woman. However, none of them have moved him as much as this girl in front of him. This girl in the white dress was special. Her black long hair was tied behind her head, and she was wearing a golden snake-shaped armband. She was clear and fresh like the spring water inside a natural valley.
Chapter 320: Purest Soul (Part One)
The cavaliers inside the tent were all loyal to the gods. They had all sworn to give everything to the gods, and their willpower were all strong and firm. Despite all that, they had to move their eyes away after looking at Angela for a few seconds; they were afraid that their loyalty towards the gods will crumble if they looked at the girl for too long.
However, Balesi with the white hair and white beard acted in a surprising manner.
Ever since Angela walked in, this priest who was in his fifties stared at her directly. Different from the cavaliers who quickly looked away, Balesi's stare was full of invasiveness. As if his eyes were two daggers, it felt like they cut open Angela and inspected her soul.
"I heard that you are having a great time talking with Mr. Kaka His Highness, and you guys already finished five big bottles of wine. Therefore, I ordered the maids to prepare a few more bottles of wine, and I also ordered the chef to cook up some delicate dishes." Angela smiled at Fei as she explained. After that, she smiled at everyone else and told the four maids behind her to bring up the prepared items. Soon, more than a dozen dishes of delicate food were placed on the table in front of everyone.
There were actually a few more dishes in the food boxes in the maids' hands.
These food boxes were products created by Fei when he was chilling with Angela. There were simple and basic magic arrays engraved on the inside of the boxes, and they could keep the temperature inside the box constant so food inside the boxes would be kept cold or hot. These boxes were far better than the fridges and thermal lunch boxes in Fei's previous life.
The dishes in the boxes were ones created by Fei as well; they were dishes such as "Kung Pao Chicken" and "Double Cooked Pork". They were all made with ingredients that were found on Azeroth Continent. Although they might not be as delicious as some of the best food in this world and they weren't exactly like the dishes on earth, they looked special, and they were created by Fei and Angela; these dishes represented some of the sweet moments Fei and Angela had.
After Angela heard that Fei drank a lot of wine and was having a great time with the guests, she and Emma cooked these dishes and brought them here.
In Angela's mind, since these people were Fei's guests, they should be treated well.
As Angela was putting down the dishes, Priest Balesi's eyes were still locked on her. His eyes were blurry since he was old, but at this moment, they were brighter than ever. Two vague silver lights dashed out of his eyes as he carefully observed Angela all around.
This kind of expression would only appear on addicted poker players who had a great hand, greedy merchants who discovered a gold mine, and a thirsty man who saw an unparalleled beauty.
"Bam!"
Both Pierce and Drogba hit the table and stood up. They sneered as they stared at Priest Balesi with anger. Their hands were already on their weapons. If this Balesi wasn't an important figure in the Holy Church, these two would have already drawn out their swords and attacked Balesi. The fact that Balesi was looking at the future queen of Chambord in such an offensive way already triggered these warriors of Chambord.
Fei also sneered as he looked at Balesi.
He knew that this Top-Tier Priest from the Holy Church wasn't thinking about obscenity. However, the desire in his eyes was a hundred times more terrifying than greed. As if he discovered a precious treasure, he was looking at Angela in a way that it felt like Angela was no longer a human but an item to him.
Fei instantly lost all respect he had towards this elder. He sneered again and turned around as he stared at Kaka who was sitting in front of him.
Kaka obviously didn't expect this as well. He frowned and coughed. "Teacher," he reminded Balesi with a quiet voice.

Kaka was quiet and gentle with his tone, but it felt like his words carried an indescribable magic. Like the eruption of a volcano, it was able to wake up people who had fallen asleep for numerous year.
Fei was a little shocked. Kaka definitely used a special technique... This [God's Favorite Child] wasn't as simple as he seemed.
"Your Highness... Oh, my apologies..." Balesi's body shivered a little as he moved his eyes off of Angela.
This white-haired elder looked at Kaka and smiled; as he nodded his head, a strange light appeared in his eyes. After that, he smiled at Fei. The smile was so bright that it seemed like he wasn't sorry about his rude behavior at all. Soon, his eyes went back to Angela as he continued to observe and nod repeatedly.
After seeing this rude act again, people like Drogba could no longer hold back the anger. They shouted and was able to draw their weapons. However, Fei lightly waved his hand. These guys sat back down unwillingly as they still stared at Balesi angrily.
Balesi didn't care about the reaction of Chambord at all.
Chapter 320: Purest Soul (Part Two)
The silver lights in his eyes finally disappeared. He slowly stood up and walked to Fei in his simple and crude shoes. He pointed at Angela and asked: "I don't mean to offend you, but do you mind if I ask what is this girl's identity at Chambord?"
10 Places All Men Must Visit While They're Single
Nueey
Although the words were humble, the haughty and demanding tone of Balesi wasn't hidden at all.
Of course, a bit of hostility could be sensed from it as well.
Fei sneered as he grabbed onto Angela's hand. Instead of answering Balesi, he looked up at the roof of the tent and remained silent.
The king already hated this priest who left a good impression at first. Although this priest was acting in a humble manner, the haughty and high-up aura on him made the king really uncomfortable. If he was sure of Balesi's strength and wasn't afraid of the Holy Church's power, the king might have already attacked.
"I'm Angela, and I'm Alexander His Majesty's fiancée." Angela smiled and answered for Fei.
She knew who these guests were; the power and the strength of the Holy Church were so famous that they suppressed a lot of powerhouses like an unclimbable mountain. Angela knew why Fei was angry, and she was happy that he wanted to protect her. Since she didn't want her lover to stand on the wrong side of the Holy Church because of her, she answered proactively.
"Oh, so you must be the future queen of Chambord." Priest Balesi didn't mind Fei's cold treatment. He nodded his head and asked with a smile: "If you don't mind me asking, have Your Highness ever cultivated warrior energy or magic energy?"
"No."
Balesi's eyes got even brighter after hearing this answer.
"Thank the gods! A Saintess endowed by the heaven... I just used my [Godly Eyes] and discovered that you have a soul that is like the purest crystal; it has no flaws. I can't even believe it! The purest soul ever existed! I have served the gods for more than half of my life, and it is my first time to meet someone like you, Your Highness. With your talent and conditions, you are the best candidate to cultivate the Holy Power of the Holy Church. Are you willing to join the Shrine Choir?"
What Balesi said shocked a lot of people.
Purest soul?
Shrine Choir?
As Fei was shocked, he quickly went through his memories and tried to find the meaning of these words.
According to the documentation in the Royal Library of Chambord, the Holy Church claimed that they could communicate with the gods and ask the gods to grant miracles. In the long history of Azeroth, miracles did take place several times.
It was heard that only the people with the purest souls were able to communicate with the gods, understand the will of the gods, and represent the gods. Also, it seemed like the people with the purest souls were all women; virgins to be exact. After these virgins were selected to join Shrine Choir on the Holy Mountain, they would receive mysterious training, receive various educations, read godly literature, and get to know everything about the gods. After that, they would open themselves up to the gods, use their purest souls to communicate with the gods, and pass down the gods' wills to the people in this world.
In the end, the Holy Church would select one or a few women to be the Saintess or Saintesses of the Church. They would be the ones who actually represented the gods, and they would be the people who were only just below the Pope but were above everyone else.
Every year, the Holy Church would select women with pure souls and send them to the local choirs in their home countries to receive the basic education about the gods.
Among tens of thousands of women in the Choirs, only ten would be lucky enough to be selected by the gods. They would be invited to the Holy Mountain to join the Shrine Choir. The women who were not selected weren't allowed to go home or marry other people. They were all sent to local monasteries as they would become nuns and continue to serve the gods.
Of course, that was what happened on the surface.
Actually, a lot of beautiful nuns were sent to influential figures as presents. On this continent, a lot of noblemen were honored to have a concubine who was a part of the Choir. This was similar to how rich men in Fei's previous life liked to play around with celebrities and supermodels.
In a story that was well known to everyone, a young and brave nobleman was crazy over love. He and a girl who was selected to go to the Shrine Choir ran away, and he was envied by numerous men on the continent. Of course, the story didn't end well. The nobleman, the girl, and their families were all killed by the Holy Church who was infuriated by this. Their corpses were all thrown to the wild and became food for beasts and birds. They all died with no dignity.
However, there were a lot of women who were more ambitious than men.
To women who wanted power and fame, becoming a part of the Choirs, going to the Holy Mountain, receiving supreme power, communicating to the gods, and becoming a representative of the gods and a Saintess was a shortcut. Therefore, there were a lot of women who wanted to go down that path, just like how girls wanted to marry the emperor to become powerful and influential.
The only sacrifice they needed to make was simple yet horrible depending on who you ask – never get married and stay as a virgin.
What disappointed Balesi was that Angela wasn't one of those ambitious women. The future queen of Chambord declined the invitation immediately. "I'm sorry, Mr. Priest. Although I worship the gods, I'm already engaged with the king of Chambord. I don't want to become a nun," she said.
Chapter 321: Pressure (Part One)
"Haha, don't worry! As long as you want to join the Shrine Choir, the Church can stand up for you and cancel the engagement. You are gifted. If you join the Shrine Choir, you would have a good chance at becoming a Saintess. By then, you would be able to communicate to the gods and hold supreme power. You would be the representative of the gods, and anything you say would be treated with great respect. Your family and friends would also be uplifted by you. All of this can be achieved as long as you nod your head..."
Priest Balesi's words were filled with temptation as he told Angela about her potential bright future.
"Thank you, Mr. Priest. However, I don't want to become a nun."
Angela replied directly. Balesi was a little surprised by Angela's immediate answer. He was disappointed, and he couldn't believe what he had heard.
After looking at the king of Chambord who was sneering and the angry warriors of Chambord, he knew what he said had triggered a lot of people. What he did was similar to robbing the king of Chambord's fiancée, and he just offended this force that recently got power.
However, the girl in front of him had the purest soul he had ever seen, and she would be very important to how he and his people can advance inside the Holy Church. Even if he had to offend Chambord, he didn't care. After all, a little affiliated kingdom was nothing; even Zenit was like a bug in the eyes of the Holy Church.
"Beautiful lady, I hope you can really re-consider my offer. Being a Saintess of the Holy Church is hundreds of thousands of times better than being the queen of a little affiliated kingdom." Balesi spoke again and was unwilling to give up.
Angela didn't say anything. She held onto Fei's hands tightly and shook her head.
Balesi looked at their hands as if he understood something. He smiled and said: "As long as you agree, we are not scared of threats. Haha, don't worry about that. As long as you agree, no one dares to stop someone from becoming a member of the Shrine Choir."
What he said was really mean; he was obviously trying to create cracks in Fei and Angela's relationship.
Disgust appeared in Angela's peaceful and calm eyes. She said slowly, "No one is threatening me at Chambord. However, I can sense a lot of threat in your words, Ms. Priest."
Balesi's face got a little red as he was embarrassed. He opened his mouth and couldn't follow up with anything.
At this time, Fei suddenly stood up.
As he stood up, his dark red cape fluttered; it looked like a bloody flag that was in battle. A huge force blew at Balesi, and the patched robe he was wearing was fluttering backward as well. Although it didn't break off of his body, it was tightly pressed against his not-so-bulky body.
The huge power made Balesi's body shake. Although he didn't fall down or move back, his feet were driven deep into the ground by him; his ankles couldn't even be seen. Dense spider web-like cracks appeared on the ground and continued to expand.
Tink! Tink! Tink!
After seeing this, the dozen silver armored cavaliers of the Holy Church drew their swords as their faces changed color. They stood in front of Balesi and went against the pressure Fei was giving off together.

Bam! Bam! Bam!
The warriors of Chambord like Drogba, Pierce, and Robbin also slapped the table, drew their weapons, and was about to strike.
The atmosphere inside the tent got very tense. As if a huge stone was hanging on a strand of hair, it was about to break loose at any second. The tent shook violently under the blowing wind, and the noises it made was breath-taking.
"Hahaha, I'm just playing. Why so serious?" Fei laughed as he suddenly pulled back his power.
"Eh?"
Balesi who was trying to go against Fei's force didn't react fast enough. He pushed forward habitually and almost fell on his face. It was fortunate that he was powerful and stopped himself right there. His face was all red as he fell to a disadvantage.
"It is late already. It is dark outside, and the terrain around here is pretty bad. Since Kaka His Highness needs to travel out tonight, it is better to leave earlier." Fei asked them to leave firmly.
"You..." All of Balesi's hairs stood up.

Chapter 321: Pressure (Part Two)
He stared at Fei with coldness in his eyes. He was actually shocked; he didn't expect Fei's strength to grow this much in this short amount of time. When he met Fei in the underground cave of Blood-Edge's headquarter, he was still able to clearly detect how powerful Fei was. Although he tried to recruit this young king at the time for some other reason, he looked down on Fei and didn't really think Fei was a character who posed threats to him. But now, this king was able to threaten him.
Of course, Balesi was infuriated.
"How dare such a small king offend me and trick me? How dare he ask Mr. Kaka to leave?"
Balesi wasn't someone who can't endure pain and embarrassment.
Instead, the reason he was the accompanying priest of Kaka wasn't because of his combat ability. Rather, it was because that he was wise and calm. He had read numerous books and witnessed how different groups inside the Holy Church tried to kill each other in order to advance.
However, he was the most irrational person today. For some reason, the person who was always calm and calculative was now very emotional like a rabbit that got its tail stepped on. Even Kaka and the cavaliers were a little surprised.
"Your Majesty, it is my fault for causing such trouble. Priest Balesi was very surprised by the queen, and he misbehaved. Please accept my apologies." At this intense moment, [God's Favorite Child] Kaka suddenly apologized to Fei as he waved his hand and signal the cavaliers to leave the tent and start preparing for the trip.
Fei's impression of Kaka wasn't bad. He smiled and also waved his hand to calm down the warriors of Chambord. After that, he walked Kaka to his silver magic carriage. After some more chitchat, they said farewells to each other.
"Your Highness, if you change your mind, you can inform the Bishop of Zenit. My offer would be open forever. To you, Chambord is only a little pond and the king of Chambord is only a big frog in this small pond. Your name is designated to be heard throughout the continent, and I'm sure that you will make the correct decision soon."
Before they left, Priest Balesi still continued to try to make Angela change her mind. As he talked to Angela, he looked at Fei in a provocative manner. It was obvious that he wanted to get Angela to become a Saintess, and it seemed like it was of utter importance to him.
Although Kaka and the king of Chambord were very friendly towards each other, Red-Robe Top-Tier Priest Balesi who was like a teacher and a strategist to Kaka already stood on the other side of the table.
What happened today was really strange.
A lot of people didn't understand what had happened. It was a friendly visit at first since Balesi was always trying to recruit the king of Chambord. However, the ending to this was very unexpected.
Fei didn't react to Balesi' provocation as a vague smile was always on his face.
"Your Majesty, let us go and teach that bastard a lesson!" Drogba and Pierce stared at Balesi who was leaving as they said. They couldn't hold back their anger, and they were planning to do some illegal things.
Fei turned around and saw Oleg who was also looking at him in an excited manner; he wanted to go and vent his anger as well.
Fei was surprised by this; he found it funny as well.
His men were spoiled by him. It was the Holy Church! All forces on the continent were afraid of them and had to respect them. They would either try to flatter them or try to stay far away from them. "These three guys want to chase and kill a priest of the Church? Are they crazy?" Fei thought.
"Fu*k off! Go and improve your strength first! The three of you added together can't even defend against his finger!" Fei stared at them and kicked them on their butts. After that, he walked towards his central tent.
After talking a few steps, he turned around and commanded: "No one can leave the camp area tonight without my permission! Everyone has to stay here quietly! Also, don't even talk about what happened tonight with anyone." Fei said seriously.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The warriors of Chambord all got docile after seeing how serious Fei was.
Only Lampard who was standing far away saw Fei's little movement. He saw Fei looking at the direction of the Balesi, and he saw a pair of eyes that were so cold that they could instantly freeze water.
...
After Fei walked into the central tent, he started to think back to what had happened. After he calmed down, he realized that things weren't that simple. Although Balesi was trying to convince Angela to join the Shrine Choir, it felt like there was something on Angela that was very important to Balesi and his group.
This was something that Fei had been thinking about as well.
Although Angela never had any magic and didn't have any special talent that she was born with, she was really good at communicating with animals. In fact, she was so good with animals that even the most vicious animal would be docile like a little cute kitty when it was near her.
Chapter 322: He Is Scary (Part One)
Fei always wanted to know where Angela's ability came from.
What Balesi said today gave Fei some possible ideas – perhaps only the people with the purest souls can community with the animals in natural on a spiritual level. Such pure souls may cause the beasts to lose their cautiousness as they would become intimate.
Only the purest soul can complete such a miracle.
Fei somehow felt like there were more secrets on Angela; it wasn't as simple as having the purest soul. These secrets may be tightly related to the Holy Church, and that was why sly Balesi had lost his temper today. It felt like the cavaliers of the Holy Church wasn't too stimulated as they didn't know much about the secrets.
Also, it was Fei's first-time meeting [God's Favorite Child] Kaka.
This was a deep and inestimable character; humble yet powerful. As for now, Fei couldn't see through Kaka's strength. During the conversation they had today, Kaka was always calm. Even when Fei and Balesi were facing off each other aggressively, the bright smile could still be seen on Kaka's face. It could easily pull people closer to him, and others won't be uncomfortable around him.
Such a character was scary.
However, Fei didn't sense anything negative about this Kaka. Instead, he felt very intimate towards him.
After he gathered his thoughts, Fei opened up the portal and entered Diablo World. This time, he didn't choose the Barbarian Character. He chose to use the Amazon Character and the Necromancer Character this time, and he tried his best to level up these two characters.
...
The dawn came.
When a sliver of white light appeared on the horizon, it lit up the clouds in the sky.
It was the coldest in the winter morning. Roads and trees on the sides were all covered by a thin layer of white frost. Under the bright sunlight, everything looked beautiful.
A team of about 100 people was moving forward slowly on a road in the valley.
The cavaliers who were wearing silver armors and white capes were chatting with each other and laughing; they were obviously having a good time. The crisp noises made by the horse hooves and the frozen ground resonated in the area. The person who was at the very front of this team was a tall cavalier who was riding on a black horse that was more than two meters tall; the horse breathed out "white fog" constantly. In the hands of this cavalier, there was a silver cross; that represented the identity of these people –
The Holy Church!
Among the cavaliers, there was a silver magic carriage. There were a lot of magic engravings that belonged to the Holy Church on the carriage. The carriage was about two meters long, and it didn't have any wheels. Under the carriage, more than 100 small wind-elemental magic arrays helped the carriage that was about 1000 kilograms float in the air. In the front, four black horses of similar sizes pulled the carriage forward slowly and steadily.

Nueey
The cavaliers around the carriage were powerful; they were all guarding this carriage cautiously.
Inside the carriage, there were two people enjoying the soft and comfortable interior. They were [God's Favorite Child] Kaka and his accompanying priest Balesi.
"Your Highness, aren't you moved by this opportunity?" Balesi opened his eyes and lightly asked.
"I didn't see any opportunities." Kaka shook his head.
"Eh... Your Highness, that woman named Angela has the 'godly body' and the "godly soul"; she is the most fitted for being a Saintess. If we can bring her to the Holy Mountain, you would definitely be favored by Pope His Majesty. I'm sure that she would have no problem advancing to a Saintess from a member of the Shrine Choir. If she succeeds, then our South Mountain's strength would increase dramatically. Then..."
"Bring her to the Holy Mountain? Did you see that she is already Alexander's woman?" Kaka interrupted Balesi's daydream with a smile.
"Haha, he is only a small king of a level 6 affiliated kingdom, and his parent empire is only a level 1 empire. As long as Your Highness want, does the king of Chambord dare to disobey your order?" Balesi sneered. As the winter sunlight shined on his wrinkled face, a fierce and vicious expression was highlighted. He was very different from the calm and gentle priest that he appeared in front of everyone else.
"If he is only a king of an affiliated kingdom, it would be fine. But I'm sure that you, the teacher, know that Alexander's identity isn't that simple."

Chapter 322: He Is Scary (Part Two)
"You mean the golden Holy Power?"
Kaka nodded as a response.
Balesi frowned. "Looking at the history of the king of Chambord, it seems like he did suddenly get the support of a powerful force. It is very likely that he is also a [God's Favorite Child]. After all, only the Holy Church can turn an idiot into a genius warrior in a short time." A confident smile appeared on Balesi's face as he continued: "So what? Even if he is a [God's Favorite Child], he is probably only discovered by the Holy Church recently; otherwise, he would be famous a long time ago. Your Highness doesn't need to be afraid of a weak [God's Favorite Child] who has little foundation. Using this opportunity..."
The expression on Balesi's face got terrifying and chilly. Although he didn't finish his sentence, he expressed his idea completely using this expression.
He wanted to ... kill the king of Chambord.
Among many [God's Favorite Children], only one was able to sit on the supreme throne on the Holy Mountain. There were a lot of competitions, and many forces within the Holy Church fought with each other for more power. These competitions mostly resulted in negatives loops.
Death of [God's Favorite Children] wasn't rare. In fact, the current Pope Sepp Blatt only got where he was by stepping on the corpses of more than a dozen [God's Favorite Children].
On the continent that was ruled by the Law of the Jungle, Balesi felt like it was normal for Kaka to use his power and influential to kill a potential future competitor.
"Teacher, you are too murderous." Kaka sighed as he shook his head.
Balesi sighed as well.
"Your Highness, you are just too kind and naïve. You have been traveling around the continent, and you have seen all kinds of bloodiness and ugliness of this world. However, you still refuse to believe that the world is cruel. Put that aside... Your Highness, you have to remember that you are one of the brightest [God's Favorite Children]. Your fate had been determined at the time of your birth, and kindness and sympathy can not help you. You can only be relieved after your sit on that throne."
Kaka only smiled; he did say anything back.
Balesi could only sigh again; he didn't continue talking as well.
This kind of conversations occurred numerous times in the last few years.
Although Balesi had never convinced this [God's Favorite Child], he would never give up on it.
As long as there was the opportunity, Balesi would try to tell Kaka about his fifty-years of life experience and the cruelness of the internal conflicts of the Holy Church. He believed that he was right. A [God's Favorite Child] who was too kind would never survive in the Holy Church which had numerous small but vicious groups, didn't matter how powerful he or she was.
Balesi felt like he had to convince Kaka.
His fate was tightly tied together with Kaka's fate when he became the first Robe-Robe Accompanying Priest to Kaka.
"Your Highness, please let me make the decision this time. This woman named Angela is too important for your future. I will get her for you by all means." As if he made a decision, Balesi told Kaka seriously.
"Don't offend the king of Chambord." Kaka looked at the stubborn elder in front of him and said: "He is scary, and he will become even scarier in the future."
"That is why we need to finish it right now." Balesi wasn't willing to back off.
As Kaka was about to say something, his face changed color. Balesi who was sitting in front of him also was shocked.
Before the two of them could say anything, a light buzzing noise sounded. A thin and short black sword had pierced through the silver magic carriage and appeared in front of Balesi instantly. With a dash of chilly light, it went at Balesi' throat.
Assassin!
This was an unanticipated change!
No one thought that there would be a person who dared to assassinate key figures of the Holy Church. Also, no one thought that the assassin could get into the silver magic carriage and carry out the assassination without anyone noticing.
It was fortunate that Balesi was powerful and had a good reaction speed.
In this critical moment, this white-haired priest was very calm. He sat still as a white flame appeared in his right hand. His Holy Power surged as he grabbed onto that assassination sword with his right hand.
"Die!" Balesi roared as he touched the sword.
As he was about to counterattack, his face changed color again; shock appeared in his eyes. His hand that was harder than steel under the empowerment of the Holy Power wasn't able to grasp that black sword. His palm was cut open as he sensed severe pain.
This short sword was a very powerful weapon; it even could pierce through Holy Power!
Boom!
Under the threat of death, Balesi roared again. Terrifying Holy Power spilled out of his body like a tsunami, and the white flames filled the inside of the silver magic carriage. After the outburst of power, the silver magic carriage exploded into pieces!
The person who also flew away was that assassin.
Under the impact of the Holy Power, the cavaliers who were protecting the carriage were also blown away with their horses as they had little time to react; they looked like they were weak ants.
"Hahaha, I didn't know that Mr. Priest is a Moon-Class Elite!"
A hoarse and crazy laughter sounded. That assassin who was blown away came back at Balesi even faster. Like a dangerous snake, the black sword broke through the white flames and stabbed at Balesi's heart. This strike was so powerful and desperate that it made people feel like the assassin was willing to trade his own life away.
Chapter 323: New Definition of Archers (Part One)
"Since you already know my strength, how dare you still continue to assassin me? I will make sure that you don't return alive. I will also burn your body and scatter your ashes."
After feeling the severe pain in his hand, Priest Balesi was enraged.
Ever since he became a priest, he hadn't been injured for a long time. Even though some of his opponents were much more powerful than him, they had to respect the Holy Church and didn't harm him. But today, his hand was cut open by this assassin who was much weaker than him. To Balesi, this was a great shame.
After seeing that the assassin didn't back away, Balesi roared again and struck out.
The silver-white Holy Power surged around like waves of the ocean, and it soon covered more than half of the sky. The valley that was previously shined on by the sun was now shined up by the Holy Power. A huge silver palm made from the Holy Power smashed into the body of the assassin.
"Puff... Eh..."
After the assassin was struck, he gaged a little as blood spurted out of his mouth.
Like a cannonball, his body got shot into the mountain on the side of the road. Clouds of dust instantly flew into the air, and the assassin was deeply pressed into the mountain. There was now a deep hole on the mountain... Balesi was really angry this time, and he used all of his power.
The clouds of dust slowly settled down.
Balesi was standing in mid-air with no support.
His robe with black and white patches fluttered in the wind, and waves of silver and white flames enveloped him. He looked just like a god of war, and all the cavaliers felt like kneeling down and worshiping him.
This was the first time that the cavaliers and the Godly Servants of the Holy Church saw Balesi using his full strength. They all looked at the figure in the air with excitement and admiration.
Standing in mid-air with no external support; that was a sign of a Moon-Class Elite.
The cavaliers finally knew that this frugal, stubborn, and normal-looking elder was a master warrior who was at least a Moon-Class Elite!
After the clouds of dust went down and the rock pieces stopped falling down, everyone looked at the side of the mountain again. On the mountain that wasn't too steep, there was a huge hole that was in the shape of a human figure. The cracked rocks on the side of the road were stained by blood, and there weren't any movements inside the hole as there was no sound coming from it.
Many cavaliers believed that this assassin had died after taking a full-on strike of a Moon-Class Elite.
"Go drag him out. Doesn't matter if he is dead or alive, we need to see his body. I want to see who dares to assassinate Mr. Kaka His Highness."

Nueey
After a dash of silver light, the wound on Balesi's hand disappeared. After that, he stood in mid-air and ordered the cavaliers to find the corpse of the assassin in the hole.
"Yes, Mr. Balesi."
Two cavaliers took the order and jumped towards the hole.
They started to move the rock pieces that were blocking the way to the hole. After they finished that, they entered the hole. All other cavaliers looked at them from afar. They all wanted to know who dared to assassinate key figures of the Holy Church.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Suddenly, three black arrows dashed out of the hole like meteors; they were like the three points of a triangle.
The noises weren't loud. The arrows passed by the ears of the two cavaliers in the hole with light air-piercing noises.
After the arrows passed by, the strong wind created by the arrows hit the two cavaliers. The force easily knocked the two cavaliers who were both three-star warriors out of the hole.

Nueey
The three arrows were like the sickle of the Grim Reaper. They were targeting the vital spots on Balesi who was standing in mid-air.
"He is not dead..."
"That assassin is still alive!"
The cavaliers and Godly Servants standing by shouted in surprise. No one thought that this assassin who took a strike from a Moon-Class Elite was still alive. The assassin was able to counterattack so effectively... could it be that this assassin was also a Moon-Class Elite?
The appearance of the three arrows was way too unexpected. They were released just as people thought the assassin was dead.
This assassin must be an experienced executor. He had mastered the art of picking the appropriate time and angle!
"Humph!"
Chapter 323: New Definition of Archers (Part Two)
Balesi's pupil contracted as he sneered. He grasped his left hand, and the Holy Power around him surrounded his hand and formed an energy shield with numerous runes on it. This shield blocked the path of the arrows.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Three crackling noises sounded almost at the same time.
When the black arrows hit the white shield, a huge energy wave was created. The waves moved outward like the ripples in a lake. Balesi who was standing in mid-air also moved a little. It was obvious that the power contained inside the arrows were far beyond everyone's expectation. It felt like the three arrows were the dragon lances that were shot out by the huge Siege Crossbows.
The arrows that collided with the shield didn't fall down. As if they had the minds of their own, they tightly nailed onto the surface of the shield with the residual power, and it felt like they wanted to pierce through the shield and the man behind it.
"Fu*k! Back off!"
Balesi roared, and the Holy Power around him surged again. A huge amount of energy rushed into the shield, and the three demon-like arrows were knocked back. With the force of the Holy Power, they went back into the hole faster than when they came out.
Whoosh!
A figure dashed out of the human-shaped hole as fast as a lightning.
A whirlwind was created by his movement.
As the clouds of dust and small rocks started to fly into the air again, this man grabbed onto the arrows that were shooting back at him. In just a split second, he was only one meter away from Balesi. With a shake of his wrist, the three arrows turned into many as they stabbed at Balesi' forehead, eyes, throat, and heart; he was using the arrows like swords.
Tink! Tink! Tink!
A series of white and silver energies rippled in the air as Balesi used his mind to create them.
Like indestructible armors, they covered the vitals spots on Balesi. As some of the energies were eliminated, more energies appeared. Series of metal-colliding noises sounded, and sparks shot at all directions. This completely blocked the strikes coming from the assassin.
After he realized that this strike was not effective, the assassin made an unexpected attack again.
The bow that was in his other hand was used as a weapon. The assassin smacked down at Balesi' head with the back of the bow. Balesi saw this coming, and he dodged away. However, the dark-red bowstring that was sharper than a blade coiled towards Balesi's neck. If Balesi' neck was coiled, his head would be instantly cut off.
Balesi stepped in the air and dodged this strike again perfectly. Then, a vicious sneer appeared on his face. His right hand grasped in thin air, and a dragon lance appeared in his hand. He roared and stabbed at the back of the assassin.
The dragon lance was as fast as lightning.
This priest was great at grasping opportunities in battles as well.
The cavaliers started to cheer as they saw that the assassin wasn't able to dodge. But in the next second, the assassin smashed his bow against the dragon lance. By using the repulsion force generated by this, his body turned around rapidly like a Beyblade. He dodged the lance by rotating 360 degrees four times in the air.
As he was rotating his body, a series of bowstring vibrations sounded. Four to five arrows were shot at Balesi as they took strange trajectories.
The power in the arrows could even break the space and time. Balesi didn't dare to underestimate the arrows. He quickly waved his hands, and the silver Holy Power created three rune shields and protected him.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The arrows broke the three silver shields. Fire came out of the cracks on the shields and even burned a few of Balesi's hairs.
Fire Magic Arrows!
This assassin was a Magic Archer!
Everyone opened their mouths subconsciously as they couldn't believe it.
This assassin had too many tricks up his sleeves.
In the next moment, this assassin already landed on the ground. With momentum, he rotated his body and got on a single-knee. He instantly stabilized his body and pulled on the bow; he demonstrated his impressive archery again.
After three more arrows were shot out, they split into tens of thousands of arrows on the way. In just a second, numerous arrows had targeted Balesi like a storm.
One arrow into 10,000 arrows!
This was the legendary archery skill that only god-tier archers could use. On the Azeroth Continent, there were only a few people who could achieve this level. The fact that this assassin had this level of archery surprised the cavaliers and Godly Servants of the Holy Church even more.
Balesi who was still in mid-air was caught off guard. Facing the numerous arrows, his silver Holy Power surged more and more; it looked like it was another sun in the sky.
The assassin on the ground continued to shoot out arrows.
Each of these arrows turned into 10,000 more arrows.
The entire sky was covered by this "arrow rain".
Now almost all the cavaliers and Godly Servants knew that the assassin wasn't a Moon-Class Elite yet.
However, the assassin was very agile and fast. His movements and techniques were fantastic, and his archery was shocking as well. Bow and arrows were lethal weapons in his hands, and he was still powerful with them gone. He wasn't like a typical archer who could only attack in a distance; his close-range combat skills enabled him to be an all-around fighter. This man gave the people a completely new definition of archers.
Chapter 324: About Agility (Part One)
It was because of all these strange and unexpected battle methods and styles that allowed this assassin to trouble Balesi who was a Moon-Class Elite. For a moment, Balesi could only try to play the defensive game instead of the offensive game.
By this time, all the cavaliers had carefully circled around [God's Favorite Child] Kaka to protect him.
Balesi who was standing in mid-air seemed like he was locked up by all these arrows as the arrows enveloped around him. Like a small boat floating on a river in a storm, Balesi was only protected by his Holy Power. However, his Holy Power was enough. Numerous layers of white Holy Power appeared one meter in front of him, and all the fierce and vicious arrows that were coming at him couldn't pass through this line of defense.
It was obvious that this mysterious assassin was no match to Balesi in terms of pure power.
As long as Balesi got a moment to breathe and regroup, this mysterious assassin could start to lose.
Soon, this assassin realized this as well.
In the next second, the assassin changed his method of attack.
He stood still, but the strangely-shaped big bow that was twice the size as a regular bow disappeared after a light flashed by. What appeared in his hand next was a javelin. The javelin was about two meters long, and both ends of it were sharp. Without any patterns or symbols on it, its smooth body looked like a thin line from afar.
This assassin held onto the javelin tightly. After he dashed forward and accelerated, his body suddenly tilted forward. With a roar, the javelin was thrown out at Balesi who was in still in the sky.
This throw looked average, but it was actually powerful.
As soon as the javelin left this assassin's hand, it already appeared in front of Balesi; it felt like this javelin ignored time and space.
White energy shields continued to appear in front of Balesi, but these shields couldn't stop this javelin as easily as when they stopped the arrows.
In just a second, the javelin broke through more than a dozen shields and was less than one centimeter away from Balesi' heart.
At this moment, a long and ear-piercing noise sounded by everyone's ear. This was the noise that the javelin made. The javelin was traveling faster than the sonic speed; that was why the noise it made came after the strike almost landed.
It was fortunate that Balesi had more than one set of Holy Power around him.
After the javelin pierced through numerous layers of energy shields, it stopped moving forward. Its power was limited by the strength of this assassin.
As people thought that the javelin was about to fall to the ground, a sudden change occurred. Terrifying lightning magic elements surged on the javelin, and the energy shields Balesi had in front of him all shattered like glass. The javelin instantly passed through all of Balesi' Holy Power defense lines, and it struck towards Balesi' heart again.

"Danger!"
"Mr. Balesi, be careful!"
The cavaliers on the ground shouted subconsciously.
This assassin had way too many techniques that they never heard of. The cavaliers on the ground were all terrified. If they were the target instead of Balesi who was a Moon-Class Elite, they would have died more than a hundred times.
Rip!
All of Balesi's hairs stood up on his body. At that critical moment, his body moved unexpectedly and dodged the attack; he demonstrated the power and the unchallengeable dignity of a Moon-Class Elite.
This javelin that had lightning power on it didn't injure Balesi, but it did tear a huge opening on his robe that had numerous black and white patches. The area under his armpit was torn, and the white inner shirt he was wearing got burned by the lightning and turned brownish-yellow.
It was a scary scene.

"I have to admit that your strength is impressive. However, your performance ends now." After Balesi dodged this lethal attack, his expression calmed as he stood in the sky and stated.
He already calmed down at this point, and he wasn't as angry as he was at the beginning. This assassin had demonstrated a level of power that he had to respect. Although this assassin wasn't a Moon-Class Elite, he was at least an eight-star warrior.
It was at this moment that Balesi realized a small issue that he ignored at the beginning.
This assassin was here to kill him!
A few minutes ago when the assassin showed himself, many people subconsciously thought that he was here to kill Kaka.
Chapter 324: About Agility (Part Two)
After all, every assassination this team had faced so far these years had been targeting [God's Favorite Child] Kaka. Kaka's identity was noble, and he had unlimited potential. He was a strong candidate for the throne of the Pope, and he had a lot of potential enemies. No assassin has ever targeted anyone else.
It was different this time.
Balesi realized that this mysterious assassin had been targeting him from the beginning. This assassin showed no sign of attacking the handsome [God's Favorite Child] Kaka who was still smiling at this moment.
Balesi's brain started to process the potential information this sudden observation brought.
He even had a suspect in mind, but he wasn��t sure if he was right.
"Could that guy be this daring?"
Although Balesi was thinking, his movements weren't slow.
The silver Holy Power filled up the entire valley.
In the next second, there were numerous silver dragon lances created by the pure Holy Power in the sky. The tips of the dragon lances were all pointing at the assassin on the ground. Although each dragon lance was formed by the Holy Power, they all had a deadly metallic glare to them.
With this level of power, Balesi could easily destroy this valley if he wanted to.
People in the valley sensed the pressure, and they felt like it was doomsday. It felt like the air had even frozen.
"Kneel down and surrender. I won't kill you if you do that." Balesi said as he looked majestic in the sky. His white hair and beard fluttered in the wind, and it felt like he was connected with nature and couldn't be defeated.
"Surrender your mom!"
The assassin suddenly mocked Balesi casually. He then waved his hand, and clouds of red flames emerged from afar as a buzzing noise sounded. These clouds of flames danced in the air and merged with each other. Soon, these clouds of flames became one and turned into a figure who looked exactly like this assassin.
Didn't matter if it was the clothing, weapon, or the facial expression, they all looked identical to the assassin.
"What?"
"A clone? Or teleportation? Which one is real?"
The two "assassins" were ten meters apart, but they looked exactly the same to everyone else. Everyone opened their eyes widely, but they couldn't spot the difference.
Balesi's face changed color as well. He concentrated as two dashes of silver light shot out of his eyes. The lights enveloped the two figures as Balesi wanted to find the difference and spot the real assassin.
"What? They are the same? Even my 'Godly Eyes' can't tell which one is fake?"
Balesi was shocked. But after a second, he was no longer troubled. He opened his palms and struck down at both ���assassins".
All the dragon lances that were floating in the sky turned into dashes of silver flashes of lightning instantly.
The dragon lances shot down at the two assassins, and they created numerous trajectories in the air.
The wind created by the strike sounded like the howling of the ghosts and the roaring of the gods.
A Moon-Class Elite's full strike looked like it was able to destroy the heaven and the earth.
The cavaliers and the Godly Servants of the Holy Church all opened their eyes widely; they all wanted to see this powerful yet unlucky assassin die. Everyone believed that this was the end for this assassin. They didn't think that dodging this strike was possible, let alone actually fighting back.
Just as they imagined, under the dense and powerful "dragon lance shower", one of the "assassins" popped like a bubble after getting hit by more than a dozen dragon lances. It disappeared and couldn't be found.
It was a phantom!
Even if this phantom was clever enough to trick Balesi's technique – Godly Eyes, it couldn't avoid getting destroyed by this lethal attack.
The collapse of the phantom represented the death of the real assassin.
The cavaliers and the Godly Servants had no doubts in their minds.
However, what happened next redefined the word "agility" in their minds.
Under the dense AoE (Area of Effect) attack, the assassin who everyone thought was going to die started to run. His speed wasn't fast and wasn't slow, but it was full of rhythms. As if he was dancing, he sometimes moved forward, he sometimes moved backward, he sometimes moved to the left, and he sometimes moved to the right; he even made some ridicules moves that were funny to others.
It was like a miracle! This assassin had dodged all of the dragon lances that were coming at him.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The huge dragon lances had silver flames around them, and they targeted the assassin's head as they moved with surging Holy Power and pressure. Under the intentional control of Balesi, all the dragon lances were shooting at the assassin.
Numerous dragon lances flew by this assassin's shoulders, waist, legs, back, and head. It was obvious that this assassin was keeping a tiny distance between him and the dragon lances.
Every time the cavaliers and the Godly Servants thought the assassin was about to be hit, this assassin showed them a new way of moving the body, dodging the dragon lances at special angles, and avoiding the kiss of the Grim Reaper.
Everyone's heart was racing as no one knew what was about to come.
Chapter 325: Necromancer (Part One)
It was a really strange feeling. For some reason, despite knowing that the assassin was an enemy, the cavaliers and the Godly Servants couldn't help but feel nervous for him at this moment. They were all subconsciously captured by the mysterious assassin as he showed his miracle-like techniques. They were secretly rooting for him, and they would sometimes gasp when the situation got too dangerous.
[God's Favorite Child] Kaka was standing among the cavaliers and the Godly Servants.
He was really calm from the beginning. The smile on his handsome face was really shiny, but his crystal-like eyes got brighter and brighter.
The 30 seconds felt like 30 decades.
Gradually, the assassin who was being showered by dragon lances moved slower and slower.
Under the control of Balesi, the space the assassin had to move around got smaller and smaller. In the end, there was nowhere to run, and the assassin had to change his body's position to dodge the lances.
Soon, wounds started to appear on his body; the wind the dragon lances created cut a lot of small wounds on the assassin's body.
The cavaliers and the Godly Servants saw a series of afterimages in the same area. Every time a lance pierced through the assassin's body, the audience would find that the lance only pierced through an afterimage.
This assassin had displayed an unimaginable level of coordination and agility.
These abilities were beyond many people's understanding.
"Are you in the final moment? Too bad that you are using your insane skills to fight against the Holy Church. In the end, your corpse can't even stay intact." A bit of unwillingness appeared on Balesi' face as he stood in the sky and shot down dragon lances made by his Holy Power. He wasn't sorry for this reckless assassin; he was only sad that these insane abilities couldn't be kept.
"Yuck! Stop acting!"
The assassin who was still changing his body's positions laughed back. Suddenly, a huge sky-blue colored shield appeared in his hand, and it completely blocked all the dragon lances that were coming at him. For a moment, the dragon lances couldn't penetrate through the shield. Loud explosion noises sounded, and the land even started to shake.
Under the thrust of numerous dragon lances, the assassin and his shield started to sink into the frozen ground that was harder than steel.
The cavaliers and Godly Servants saw blood spurting out of the assassin's mouth and nose. If he wasn't wearing a special black metal bask, his face would have been all stained. Finally, the assassin was nailed into the frozen ground and a huge circular pit that was about four meters in diameter formed in the ground.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The dragon lances formed by the Holy Power continued to rain down and dash into the huge black pit. They created clouds of dust and chipped a lot of rocks.

After three minutes, Balesi finally stopped attacking. All the dragon lances around him stopped moving, and he carefully looked at the deep pit on the ground. However, the clouds of dust in the air blocked everyone's sight. No one knew how deep the pit was, no one knew what was happening inside the pit, and no one knew if the talented assassin was still alive or not.
This time, Balesi didn't order cavaliers to go into the pit like last time.
He suddenly dashed into the pit himself. He was a Moon-Class Elite, and he wanted to see what was going on first-hand.
The cavaliers, Godly Servants, and Kaka were all waiting for the results on the ground. For some reason, they all felt like something bad was about to happen despite the fact that Balesi was a Moon-Class Elite.
At this moment –
"Ah... gods... Undead….. Undead Mage!"
A hoarse and extremely terrified voice sounded from the deep pit, and a bright silver Poly Power shot up into the sky following the scream. However, it was clear that a light grey and blueish fog was mixed in with the Holy Power. This fog-like power had a gloomy and chilly feel to it, and it felt like it could instantly freeze up someone's blood.
"God! Undead Mag! Evil Undead Mage!"

"Damn, that guy is an Undead Mage... Undead…. AHAHAHA..."
"Sh*t, shi*t! What should we do!"
Chapter 325: Necromancer (Part Two)
"Impossible!"
The cavaliers and the Godly Servants were all shocked. They shouted loudly and couldn't believe what was going on. As if the most unimaginable event took place, their voices even changed.
[God's Favorite Child] Kaka who had the warm smile on his face also frowned. His expression froze, and he could no longer take it casually.
Everyone was sure that the strands of grey and blueish fog-like power that was within the Holy Power were the evil and terrifying Undead Magic Power!
It was also the Undead Magic Power in its purest form.
Even [God's Favorite Child] Kaka had never seen such a pure Undead Magic Power despite his vast knowledge. This power was equivalent to the evillest and most terrifying power that could corrode away anything.
Since the inception of the Holy Church, they had been fighting Undead Mages. The history of the grudge between the two forces was buried in the dust of the time, but many people thought that the Undead Magic Power was the only counter for the Holy Power. Although the Undead Mages were associated with corpses and dead people and were disliked by many, the real reason why Holy Church wiped them out was that the dominating Holy Church would never allow a group of people who could counter them to exist.
Light and Darkness were co-existing, and yet they counter each other.
The Bright Holy Power and the Undead Magic Power were the same. One of them wasn't stronger than the other; there were only stronger practitioners.
At the moment, the Undead Magic Power was so pure that it dominated over the Holy Power Balesi had. That grey yet blueish Undead Magic Power was the purest Undead Magic Power in this world. Even the pureness of Kaka's golden Holy Power might not even compare to this. Perhaps only the legendary Godly Holy Power that the Pope had could rival against this purest Undead Magic Power.
In a few moments, the silver Holy Power that had filled the valley was almost completely corroded by the Undead Magic Power. It was getting weaker and weaker.
This meant that Balesi who was battling with the Undead Mage inside the pit was at a disadvantage.
After a series of anxious and angry shouts sounded from the pit, everyone on the ground got nervous. "How powerful is this Undead Mage? He is able to put Balesi who is a Moon-Class Elite into a disadvantage so fast?" They thought. Once Balesi was defeated, it was unlikely that people here today could survive.
Kaka's face changed color. As he was about to say something, changes occurred –
A terrifying silver Holy Power shot into the sky, and a series of booming noises sounded afterward. Then, a figure who looked anxious rushed out of the pit as he was enveloped by this Holy Power.
"It is Mr. Balesi!"
"Mr. Balesi got out!"
Everyone relaxed. As they were about to let go of the breath that they were holding in for a long time, a sharp bone spear that reflected a chilly glare caught up with Balesi. It dashed through the fog-like Undead Magic Power and pierced through Balesi's left chest as it made a loud air-piercing noise.
Boom!
A huge hole was created in Balesi' chest, and blood, as well as chipped bones, fall out of there.
Balesi fell down from the sky as blood also leaked out of all seven openings on his head including his nostrils, ears, eyes, and mouth. He was severely injured.
"Protect Mr. Balesi."
"Quick! Protect Mr. Balesi!"
The cavaliers and the Godly Servants quickly surrounded Balesi who already fainted after being reminded by [God's Favorite Child] Kaka. They all looked at the vague figure who also jumped out of the pit. With dense layers of Undead Magic Power and white bones circling around this figure, it was hard to tell what this person looked like. They couldn't be sure if this was the same person as that skillful assassin.
Tap!
Tap, tap!
Tap, tap, tap, tap!
A series of clear yet heavy footsteps sounded, and they hammered the nerves of the cavaliers and the Godly Servants. The atmosphere was really intense.
"Quick! Set up the Bright Array!" Someone shouted and reminded all of the cavaliers and Godly Servants.
More than a dozen Godly Servants started to chant a series of indescribable and vague phrases, and the cavaliers all stomped on the ground as silver Battle Rings appeared under their feet. The wave-like Battle Rings started to expand, and they soon merged with the silver Holy Power emitted by the Godly Servants. Together, they formed a huge silver sphere that was more than 100 meters in diameter. Numerous silver runes started to appear on the sphere as well on the ground. A huge Bright Holy Power Magic Array was constructed in time.
This time, that terrifying Undead Mage finally walked out of the cloud of fog-like Undead Magic Power.
Within 20 centimeters from him, there was huge armor that was made from white bones. The bones flew around him and protected him in all directions. His grey and white long hair was fluttering in the air, and his face was covered-up by a magic mask. Only his eyes were exposed, and they were emitting dark-blue lights as if they were two lanterns. In his left hand, he was holding onto a strange shield made from purple bones and skeleton heads. In his right hand, he was holding onto a magic wand that was about half a meter long and had a white skeleton head on the tip of it. The entire body of this Undead Mage was covered with that grey and blueish fog-like Undead Magic Power, and he looked scary and murderous.
Chapter 326: Shocking News (Part One)
For some reason, it felt like Balesi had already aged for more than ten years in just a few seconds, and he continued to age even faster visibly. Time was passing by him at an insane rate, and a lot of wrinkles appeared on his skin. The age spots appeared on his face, and his eyes got very cloudy. Soon, it felt like this Moon-Class Elite couldn't even open his eyes anymore.
It was a very powerful curse.
The curse was taking away Balesi's life at a fast pace.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
There was only a sneer in response. The grey and blueish fog-like power started to surge, and the Undead Mage who was inside this "fog" only needed to wave his wand to cast a spell; he didn't even need to chant and experience the time-lag.
In the next moment, a series of sharp and chilling bone spears appeared in the air, and they dashed at Balesi like a bunch of lightning bolts.
Boom! Bam!
The bone spears struck onto the Bright Holy Power Magic Array, and the Holy Power shone. The huge impact force shocked everyone inside the array, and the people from the Holy Church felt like there was an earthquake occurring. The collision between the light and darkness exploded, and the entire valley was filled with silver energy flames.
It was fortunate that the bone spears didn't penetrate through the magic array.
After the energies in them were gone, the bone spears all turned into strands of grey Undead Magic Power and dispersed into the air.
This outcome allowed the cavaliers and Godly Servants who were inside the array to catch a breath.
With the protection of the most secure array of the Holy Church that was activated by more than 100 people's power and energy, they didn't need to worry about that scary devil breaking through the array and killing them. If this devil broke in, no one would be able to stop him as this devil was an Undead Mage who rivaled against a Moon-Class Elite.
At this intense moment where a lot of people forgot to breathe, no one noticed [God's Favorite Child] Kaka's movements. He quietly appeared behind Balesi and injected his golden Holy Power into Balesi's body from the back. Quickly, this aging priest who was about to die finally stopped the fast aging curse.
"You... can't live on."
Terrifying blue lights brightened as that devil opened his eyes widely. The blue lights passed through the fog-like Undead Magic Power and shined on Balesi. After he carefully observed Balesi's body, he made that clear announcement.
The voice of this devil sounded like a hammer that smashed everyone's heart, and it also sounded like the sickle of the Grim Reaper and made the people inside the array feel a chill in their throats.
His voice was very hoarse, and his special voice told everyone that this Undead Mage was the same person as the previous assassin.

As long as at least one of them made it out of here alive, the Holy Church would be able to find this Undead Mage using this clue. By then, there would be master warriors from the Church's Execution Legion coming here to take care of this devil. What was more important at the moment for them was to pass out the news. After more than 20 years, the Undead Magic Power re-appeared on the Azeroth Continent. This would be a news that was going to shock the entire continent, and it needed to be passed out so that every single force on the continent would be ready to wipe out the evil entities.
As the cavaliers and the Godly Servants of the Church made up their minds and were prepared to at least help [God's Favorite Child] Kaka get away even if they all died, the thick grey and blueish "fog" disappeared quickly like the tide.
That figure inside the fog-like Undead Magic Power also quickly backed away.
At this moment, the people of the Holy Church realized that there was a blue oval sphere, that was about two meters tall, behind them. Not sure when it appeared, but it was on the road that they walked by. That devil with the bones armors around him dashed to the blue oval sphere, and he waved his hands to send clouds of dust into the air to block everyone's vision.
Then, a light flashed by as a buzzing noise sounded.
Chapter 326: Shocking News (Part Two)
As the clouds of dust settled down, that scary devil was nowhere to be found.
Since their visions were blocked by clouds of dust and the Undead Magic Power, the people of the Holy Church didn't see clearly and weren't sure what that blue oval sphere was.
You Won't Believe What the World's Most Beautiful Girl Looks Like Today
Nueey
The morning wind blew by, and it was so cold that some people sensed a chill in their bones.
As time passed by, all of the grey and blueish Undead Magic Power was gone.
The people of the Holy Church felt thirsty, but none of them dared to be careless. They still unleashed the power inside of them to maintain the Bright Holy Power Magic Array. They couldn't be sure that the devil was really gone. They were afraid that the assassin would jump out of nowhere and demonstrate a few more secret techniques. After all, that was a reckless, powerful, yet sly Undead Mage; no one could be sure that this wasn't a trick.
This tense atmosphere was maintained for almost half an hour.
"Stop. He is gone." [God's Favorite Child] Kaka finally spoke.
The Godly Servants stopped chanting, and the silver Battle Rings under the cavaliers' feet also returned to their bodies like reverse-ripples. The bright runes on the ground were gone, and the Bright Holy Power Magic Array was pulled back.
Everyone felt like their legs were weak, and they almost fell to the ground. This was the result of depleting stamina and Holy Power during a big battle. Only themselves knew if fear played a role in that.
"That guy... a really scary devil." Someone said.
If there weren't obvious traces of battle around the terrains and Moon-Class Elite Balesi wasn't severely injured, everyone would have thought that they all hallucinated and everything was just an illusion. That assassin came fast and left even faster. No one saw where he came from, and no one knew how he left. However, everyone all realized one thing –
He was here to kill Balesi.
"Why would such a powerful Undead Mage come here to only kill Balesi?"
This question was on everyone's mind, but no one asked it out loud.
The cavaliers started to retrieve the horses that ran off due to fear, and the Godly Servants started to use special techniques of the Holy Church to record the entire event. They kept the traces that were left behind, they recorded how the Undead Mage attacked, and they even tried to capture some of the Undead Magic Power that still hadn't fully dispersed. The Mage Research Council on the Holy Mountain would be able to use special methods to analyze this Undead Magic Power to figure out the level of this Undead Mage.
The team of the cavaliers and the Godly Servants didn't just run off.
Under the command of [God's Favorite Child] Kaka, they carefully preserved the battleground. The news about the re-appearance of an Undead Mage was also passed back to the Holy Mountain using the fastest method. Soon, the master warriors from the closet Regional Churches would be here.
The light and darkness had been battling for more than a hundred years, and the Holy Church was experienced at killing Undead Mages. Soon, special forces would be here to take care of the rest. As long as an Undead Mage showed his or her appearance, they would be spotted by the Holy Church's huge network. Even though Undead Mage hadn't made an appearance for more than 20 years, even though the Holy Church was a little corrupted due to the long-term domination and comfort, these special forces were still efficient at dealing with Undead Mages.
Priest Balesi fainted, and he was really weak. With the big hole in his left chest, he could die at any given moment.
More than a dozen Godly Servants circled around him, and they were all trying their best to use their Holy Power to save Balesi's life. On top of Balesi's high status, he was the only one who battled with that Undead Mage. Only Balesi knew what happened in the pit, and he was the person who knew the most about that Undead Mage including the power level and characteristics. If Balesi died here, everyone here except [God's Favorite Child] Kaka would be cruelly punished.
Too bad that the Undead Mage left a lot of purest Undead Magic Power inside Balesi's body. For a moment, no healing attempts worked. Grey and blueish "fog" floated around the wounds, and they started to attack all the energy connections and channels inside Balesi's body. The silver Holy Power from the Godly Servants' couldn't hold up, and even Kaka's golden Holy Power couldn't defend against it.
The magic array had already eaten up a lot of these Godly Servant's power, and that was why they were all sweating like crazy after a few minutes into healing Balesi; they weren't going to last long.
"You guys can all back off and rest." Kaka waved his hand and let them guard the battlefield with the cavaliers as they all waited for reinforcement.
Kaka himself carefully took the torn robe off Balesi's body. Then, he took out a small silver knife and started to cut off the flesh that was corroded by the Undead Magic Power and turned black. As he tried his best to alleviate the pain this old priest was experiencing, he injected his golden Holy Power into the old priest's body to help him heal.
At the same time, Kaka tried to inspect the injuries on Balesi's body and figure out how this Moon-Class Elite lost so quickly.
Soon, Kaka's expression turned serious.
"All of them are Undead Curses... Eh... Amplify Damage... Dim Vision... Weaken that reduced the damage Teacher could deal, so he was like an Eight-Star Warrior in front of that Undead Mage... More? Confuse? Also, his soul experienced terror... More?... what is this? God! Balesi instantly got nine different types of curses thrown onto him... I can't even figure some out!!"
