Chapter 122

Thanks to the magic potion, Reverend Kaven has lived to be 107 years old, which is a very long life for someone without talent.

When Al was young, his teeth were not good. Later, Al asked the dwarves to customize a pair of dentures for him. For the next few decades, the old man ate well, slept well, and was in good health. He lived his life without any worries.

Because he raised a Holy Son of Light, in the following years he heard from the young people in the town what the child had done outside. He felt very proud and lived happily every day.

Pastor Kevin suddenly fainted while chatting with other elderly people about daily life. When he woke up, he was visibly weakened. Everyone knew that he was going to die, and the young people in the town quickly contacted Al using the crystal ball.

Al left Austin and Yarlin behind to continue dealing with unfinished matters, and he used the precious teleportation scroll to return to his hometown without hesitation. In the eyes of the other two, Winster, who also grew up in the town of Lisai, naturally went with them.

But Winster cannot appear in front of everyone, mainly because he is afraid that the old man may be happy that the child is still alive one second, and die the next second because of the shock.

Winster didn't care at all. You could say he was heartless, he had no feelings for the old man. In his eyes, his brother was the only one who raised him when he was a child.

However, Pastor Carvin, a devout believer of light who was terrified by his true appearance, had never been thanked by Winster.

To be precise, he has no feelings for anyone other than his partner, including the other two companions who have been with him for many years.

Even though he was reborn as a human in this life, his arrogance and indifference as a god remained unchanged.

Winster jumped onto the top of a tree where he could see the chapel, and waited obediently for his partner to come out.

Many acquaintances who had known each other for decades gathered inside and outside the old man's house, but everyone was in a heavy mood and not in the mood to talk, so it was quite quiet.

When Al entered the house, there were several middle-aged men and women chatting with the old man. These were the children who grew up with Al and the first batch of children taught by Kaven. Now they have become reliable leaders in the town.

He saw that Grandpa Kevin had a ruddy complexion and was in good spirits, even better than the last time he came back. A word came to his mind: last gasp of life.

"Good boy, how come you're back so soon? Oh, did I sleep for several days?"

Everyone still called Al "brother/brother" affectionately as they did before, instead of using honorifics, and Al's gloomy expression softened.

"No, I came back using a teleportation scroll. Are you feeling unwell now?"

He asked, using his healing skills without wasting any time.

"Don't worry, Al. Grandpa feels fine now." The old man was not afraid of death. A smile appeared on his face. He patted the silver-haired young man's hand and said, "I can wake up again and see you again before I die. This must be... the luck bestowed upon me by God, ahem..."

After the wish that held him to his last breath came true, the old man's face quickly turned pale, and his voice trembled, "You are my greatest pride in this life. Don't be sad. My body will rest in peace in my beloved hometown. It is a very happy thing."

"Grandpa has never done anything bad in his life, so my soul can be led by the Celestial Clan to a very beautiful and peaceful place, right?"

The young man smiled and said, "Of course, I have seen them just now. Just like the legend says, they have white wings and are flying in the sky waiting for you."

Al is a powerful magician and a person favored by God. The old man trusts him very much. He is infected by the young man's peaceful attitude, and the tension in his heart also dissipates.

He smiled, looking at the person he was most reluctant to part with, and with his last breath, he stammered his last words, "I'm going to...see them, good child, be safe and happy, may God always protect you, successfully complete your mission, and all your...wishes..."

Al watched his grandfather close his eyes and heard the sighs and sobs around him. A feeling of loss came over him.

But he was not sad, because his grandfather did not have any illness before his death, it was a happy funeral. He had heard of many tragedies and witnessed too much death and suffering over the years, and it was a very happy thing that the old man passed away peacefully...

After Grandpa Kevin was buried, the furnishings of the chapel remained unchanged and it remained open. It was a place for children to learn to read during the day and a place for adults to chat and relieve boredom at night after a busy day.

Two days later, Al and his lover returned to the city where they were before and continued to investigate the case of someone using dark forbidden objects to frame others.

If they see something unusual, they will sentence people to death directly, just like the witch trials in the Middle Ages. There will be no careful investigation and no one will listen to what the victims say.

Everyone is eager to hope that things related to the dark forces will disappear quickly, so as not to bring disaster.

This kind of thing happens everywhere. In the situations that Al had encountered before, the priests basically just spoke without caring whether there was evidence or not, so Al handled it quickly.

But occasionally, one would actually find a magic circle drawn with blood in the victim's home, or a notebook recording terrible spells, or traces of a large number of dark elements.

The priests of this city have certainly heard of the Son of God's strict requirements and ruthless punishment methods, but they are justified - we have done our duty and executed those dark believers only after seeing the evidence. Your Highness will definitely agree with us!

Every time this happens, regardless of whether the people in the Chamber are innocent or not, His Royal Highness will be unhappy, because it reminds him of his mother's true love when she was young, and the hatred that his mother has not yet taken revenge, so he can never let go...

When faced with such a thing, Austin's emotions would become very restrained, but Her Majesty the Queen reacted greatly. She sent five thousand knights over on the pretext of helping the Holy See to clear out the dark forbidden objects. The whole city was under martial law for several days, and searches began in the homes of wealthy and powerful people who had channels to obtain the forbidden objects. She ordered that all those terrible forbidden objects and cultists must be found!

And Al only searched the Chamber Church easily.

This move had no solution, and the priests had no reason to stop Her Majesty the Queen from searching places outside the Vatican's sphere of influence.

After the common people knew the purpose of the knights in cold armor, they felt relieved - find out those corrupt people quickly! Execute them and the city will be safe!

Because people with insufficient status had no channels to obtain forbidden objects, the final outcome was as expected. The nobles and the priests colluded to clear the way for their greed. Sometimes they would directly frame people, and sometimes they would kill people and then put the blame on others.

After cleaning up the place with ease, Al sent his own people to take over the branch. Yes, over the years, he has developed some power of his own in the Holy See.

There are several thousand priests in the Vatican, and those who are upright and devout in their faith are a minority, but they are enough to fill the vacancies he cleared out. However... Al does not want particularly devout people to have too much say and influence more humans to become believers of light.

Since worshiping gods is useless, he hopes that humans can become self-reliant and strong, and slowly develop technology and culture.

He was very popular when he was in college, and he also met a lot of people when he traveled every year. The young man persuaded some acquaintances who had good character, average ability, and no goals in life to pretend to be believers of light and become priests.

Then Al gave them some guidance to help them gain the support of the believers, and then it was a natural thing for him to propose to Bishop Edgar to promote them.

The people selected by Al were pharmacists, alchemists, and swordsmen. He thought that even if the common people could not sense any magic power, under the long-term instruction of senior talents, he hoped that they could be inspired to use common materials in nature, or learn some physical fitness moves and self-defense methods from the swordsmen.

Over the past decade, many statues of the God in the branches are still as new as ever, and the priests and believers still mention the God, but the frequency is much less. Most believers have unconsciously faded the image of the God of Light in their minds.

In addition to the affairs of the Vatican, Al also took the time to care about the situation in the abyss. In fact, it was more like he had seen too many bad things and wanted to find a place to travel where he didn't have to hide his relationship with his lover.

Every two years, Austin and Yarlin returned to the royal city to rest and visit their families. In order to unlock more of Samuel's strength, he drew a complex formation in the room, opened the door to another dimension... no, to the abyss, and walked in directly to the Dark Temple.

The new things that El taught the demons when he first came to the Abyss quickly became popular, centered in the Far West, and became a greatly sought-after entertainment activity.

After that, every time the silver-haired angel came to the abyss, he would bring some new things, such as musical instruments, new styles of clothes... He would also come up with some new ideas to entertain them, such as board games, competitive sports that did not allow the use of magic and force...

Because of these things to pass the time, the demons are currently having a great time in the abyss. Also, the great demon Hank was summoned to the mortal world by humans a few years ago. When he came back, he said that the place was shabby and boring, so the demons didn't always ask the messenger of God when the seal could be lifted to let them out to play.

The demons like to use themselves as prototypes and have written many exciting novels. Every time Al walks out of the temple, demons he knows and doesn't know will give him their own books. Strong ones like Hank and Anita will even ask him who he thinks writes the best.

"..." Some demons' handwriting was so bad that it hurt his eyes if he looked at it for too long, so how could he know who wrote well?

When they came to the abyss again, Al also gave them a bunch of typewriters made by the dwarves.

This time, Al found that Abyss's stage play had matured a lot, both in terms of story and acting.

There is no need to worry about food and clothing, birth, aging, sickness and death. Apart from the possibility of death in a fight, there is no other pressure of survival. Therefore, after the popularity of Abyss Entertainment, the atmosphere is very good, at least in Al's opinion, it is very suitable for him and his lover to come here for a trip to relax.

The demons who had tried to seduce the silver-haired divine envoy in the past suddenly realized when they saw the two of them holding hands. No wonder His Highness had no interest in them at all. And even if he had feelings for them, what could he do? With his partner right beside him, it would be difficult for him to do anything.

Anita rolled her eyes. No wonder that dark-talented angel wanted to kill her. Could you have said earlier that you two were a couple?

The succubus secretly pushed the responsibility away, without giving it any thought that even if she knew from the beginning that the silver-haired young man she had her eyes on had a partner, she would still play that trick in the woods with her companions.

When in the mortal world, Al would call his partner's name in turn during the day and at night, but the sky in the abyss was always the same, so he often mistook consciousness.

As the years passed, the words and actions of the two consciousnesses became more similar. This time when he came to the abyss, Al could no longer tell who was around him.

After calling the wrong name again, Al even suspected that his lover was teasing him.

He suddenly thought that in the future, when his lover reaches a higher level and becomes stronger, he will only have one consciousness that combines the memories of two lifetimes. He was a little distressed, "What name should I call you in the future?"

It would be strange for one consciousness to be called by two names in turn, but no matter which one is determined, it would be unfair to the other name...

Damn it, I only have one partner, but I still have the trouble of being surrounded by men!

Samuel raised an eyebrow, "You can call me honey." He saw that all his partners would call each other that way, "I can call you baby."

"..." The handsome silver-haired young man looked at Him with a wooden face, "Be serious."

The Lord God sighed helplessly. After so many years, his lover was still so shy to express his feelings.

"Then in your original world, what do you call your partner?"

Al rolled his eyes and suddenly smiled, a cute smile that seemed a little naughty in Samuel's eyes.

"I can call you my wife."
