"Your great sin is somewhat unorthodox!"

Beatrice coughed and understood why Louis wanted to calm down.

She subconsciously touched her belly.

I can still vaguely feel a soreness and swelling in my body.

Damn it.

Although her understanding of Louis has been constantly improving, she finds that no matter how much she improves her imagination, she can't seem to reach Louis' limits.

broken.

This is not what she learned from books! Louis rubbed her hair and said:

"It's okay. At least it's still within the tolerable range. Next, I will focus on the cardinal sin of greed."

"I can't let lust run rampant. It doesn't fit my values ​​and it's hard to control."

Beatrice nodded with difficulty and swallowed subconsciously.

Her magic eyes can see the essence of many things, but they are not invincible.

It is like Louis's mortal sin. When the mortal sin of greed occupies all attention, the lust hidden behind greed is hidden.

How to hide your true identity? Just put on more layers of skin.

This is the situation now.

Beatrice has already begun to think about how she will maintain a perfect married life in the future.

How about...try with your hands?

Do it when you think of it.

Beatrice looked at Louis with curiosity:

"Try?"

"Try what?"

"Wipe yourself clean first!"

“…”

Louis instinctively felt that Beatrice was thinking something strange.

So several more hours passed.

A thin layer of sweat appeared on Beatrice's forehead.

Louis said helplessly:

"Stop for a while and have a good rest. It will be dawn soon."

Beatrice slowly raised her head, a helpless look on her face.

She said seriously, "I think I'll need props in the future."

After a moment, she emphasized again: "It's for you, not for me."

She rubbed her sore cheeks wordlessly and slowly sat down.

Louis snorted softly, "Let's do this for now. You won't be able to bear it if you continue like this."

Beatrice lay limply on top of him, gritting her teeth and saying, "You're right. It's our duty to suppress the great sin of lust!"

That's what Louis said last night.

Now it made sense to her.

Not every mortal sin is greed.

On this day, Beatrice woke up late for a rare occasion.

Tired.

Originally, they were supposed to go to Robert Territory early in the morning to inspect the capital of art.

But due to some unspeakable reasons, the usually self-disciplined Beatrice had to postpone her departure time.

On the carriage that was about to travel, Louis and Beatrice sat in the same carriage.

In the carriage, he saw a pile of documents.

"What is that?"

Louis asked curiously.

Beatrice blushed slightly and said nothing.

Louis picked up the document and glanced at it.

The document reads:

"List of Information on the Great Sins of the Ages: Lust"

Louis: ??? Very good, it seems that my dear is still frightened.

Louis took a few more glances and saw a lot of familiar content on it.

Some of the grave sins, such as lust, overlap with the information given to him by his mentor Merlin.

For example, a certain sin that has transformed into thousands of bodies can directly turn the entire country into his clone.

The simple pleasure of sex can no longer satisfy him. He wants male happiness, female happiness, and happiness of people of different ages.

There were even some reports left by the secret guards at the bottom of the document: "Before the creatures of the entire country were exiled to the demiplane, someone discovered that the number of wild animals and monsters in the country had decreased significantly."

"It is reasonable to suspect that it is not just the people of this country who have become the incarnations of the Great Sin, but also a huge number of animals and monsters."

What can Louis say.

He could only say that no matter what, this damn crime must be suppressed!

However, the skills associated with this great sin seem quite unorthodox.

He even saw a strange skill in a certain generation of Great Sin.

The effect can be simply summarized as "whoever you stare at will get pregnant."

Well, boys can do it too! Anyway, after seeing such skills, Louis became more determined not to let this sin spread.

He was a serious man, and he didn't want later generations to describe his history in a way that was entirely indecent.

Beatrice, on the other hand, looked radiant yet tired.

But along the way, she still forced herself to cheer up and discuss academic issues with Louis.

Um.

It's probably about "what kind of props should be used to reduce the time it takes to do something like that".

What happened to the promise that only the cows would die of exhaustion?

Now something goes wrong.

The cows are fine, but the field can't hold up.

However, both of them tacitly ignored the simplest solution.

If one field cannot hold up, the simplest solution is to add a few more fields.

But Louis couldn't quite accept this.

Isn't this bullying the pure love warriors?

The two of them came to another city in the north with complicated and distressed feelings.

…

【Location: Robert County, Robert City】

“Is this the legendary art capital?”

Louis sighed.

The appearance of Robert City was different from any city he had ever seen before.

That is a completely different look from that of Tino City.

When he came out of the teleportation array in the city, he was attracted by the giant stone sculpture hundreds of meters high in the center of the city at first sight.

"A statue of the god of love?"

Louis said curiously.

The style of the statue was very similar to the one he had seen before in the Church of Love in Tino City.

But as soon as he finished saying this, the expression on his face became stiff.

He turned his head and looked at Beatrice: "Is it okay to put this kind of thing in the city?"

Beatrice glanced at the statue and said:

"I asked my father many years ago, and he said it was no problem."

Louis spread his hands.

Okay.

If the Emperor says it's okay, then it's okay.

As soon as he entered the city, he discovered that the hundred-meter-tall statue of the god of love was very similar to something he had seen before.

That's right.

The divine incarnation left behind by the goddess of darkness, Shar, during the battle in the Kingdom of Shadows.

However, compared to the divine incarnation of the goddess of darkness, Shar, the destructive power of this statue should be greater.

For example, the main body of the incarnation has fallen.

For example, the incarnation has not been maintained for many years.

For example, part of the faith of the Goddess of Darkness was stolen by the Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows, and eventually became part of the Black Swan's possession.

All in all, in this battle in the Kingdom of Shadows, the power that the divine incarnation could exert was greatly restricted.

From this point of view, the God-forged incarnation is in no way stronger than the God-forged incarnation of the City of Art.

However, he couldn't quite understand why the Emperor allowed the Church of Love to place such a powerful weapon in the city, which was equivalent to that of a top demigod.

All right.

Strictly speaking, it is understandable.

Although the imperial power of the Enther Empire is still supreme, it still has very close cooperation with the major orthodox churches.

Even according to the Greedy Diary, after the original owner found that there was no way to save the situation, he chose to entrust the future of the empire to the Church of the God of Glory and Justice.

Unconsciously, he suddenly remembered a line written in the Greedy Diary at that time.

"The Great Sin of Greed responded to his call, using all his power and existence, the afterglow of the Unther Empire, and the authority of the Libra Saint as sacrifices, and precipitated the final crystal of the authority of greed."

Judging from this sentence, Grace seems to have become part of the sacrifice.

Louis would not be so stupid as to think that the original owner had plotted against Grace and made her a sacrifice.

The entry of the Church of the God of Glory and Justice was obviously the result of the original owner's tacit consent.

With Beatrice dead, the Emperor transformed into the Black Sun of Destruction, and the main forces of the Empire basically buried in the Shadowless Underworld, letting the Church in is the easiest way to preserve the last rays of light of the Empire.

Since the Church of the God of Glory and Justice agreed to do this, it is impossible for them to know nothing about the original owner's plan.

Considering that their pope is a great sin...

A subtle guess flashed through Louis' mind.

The power of the [Greed Diary] that the original owner finally created is strictly speaking greater than any of the deadly sin skills that Louis has currently acquired.

Many of the cards he has now were obtained through the Greedy Diary.

Especially the Sin Dragon Armed Forces.

The Greedy Diary's closure of the timeline seems to transform some of the power that originally disappeared because he changed the future into a more controllable power through the Greedy Diary as a converter.

Even because the original owner has already paid a price, the side effects Louis suffers when using the corresponding skills are smaller than he imagined.

He thought that his greed for knowledge would turn him into a beast of knowledge.

But I didn't expect that I could suppress the restlessness by just filling the void with enough knowledge.

He thought that the greedy ruler would turn him into a slave owner who would be full of evil and try to squeeze out the surplus value of others.

But he hardly felt any obvious side effects of being the Greedy Ruler... Um, does it count as him particularly liking to rub Rimuru?

He originally thought that the Mask of Greed would make him schizophrenic, but from what he could see, the biggest price of the Mask of Greed was actually consuming too much mana?

The price is really too low.

This was completely different from Beatrice's previous extremely taboo attitude when she talked about serious sins.

…until he saw lust, the greatest sin of the ages.

He finally understood that he was the one with the problem.

His mind is a little confused.

Judging from the current results, it seems that Grace in her previous life intentionally fulfilled the original owner's plan?

I just don't know if this is a requirement from the church or her own choice.

In a trance, he seemed to recall the last conversation he had with Grace when he was taken to the guillotine in his previous life and looked up at her.

…

She said:

"That's enough. Let's execute him."

He said, "If I say this has nothing to do with me, would you believe me?"

The Saint was silent, and finally sighed: "Goodbye, Lightless Emperor. I hope you can find the value of your existence in the world after death."

…

Thinking back carefully, Grace in her previous life had a rather strange attitude when she was being executed.

Louis suppressed the thought.

He took another look at the divine incarnation of the god of love.

Not many people know about the God-cast incarnation.

Even within the major churches, only a few people knew about this powerful weapon.

Most of the time, this thing is used as the church's trump card.

I don’t know what the emperor did to make the Church of the God of Love move its own divine incarnation and place it in Robert City.

He looked at Beatrice and said, "What are you mainly here to deal with this time?"

Although Louis and Beatrice's trip was a honeymoon, it was not chosen casually.

For example, the Byron Territory in the northern Flower City was built to investigate whether the local monster ecosystem was overloaded.

The Byron Territory has been attacked by monsters for many years and has always been a major northern city that has attracted the attention of the royal family.

But the art capital is a bit strange.

Although it has good artistic value, its geographical location does not quite meet the requirements of this visit.

To be included in the list by Beatrice, one must generally possess any one or all three of the following elements.

1. Military stronghold

2. Northern Economic Hub

3. Area to which the hole belongs

Byron Territory meets condition one.

But art is valuable, but it is impossible to develop technology into an economic hub given the current transportation conditions in the mainland.

Robert City doesn't seem to be heavily guarded at the moment, and there is no passage leading to another world on the Enser Cave Map.

So it was put on the shortlist and he was quite surprised when he chose it.

However, after arriving here, he quickly realized something was wrong.

After all...if it were just a city of art, the Church of the God of Love would not have thrown such a trump card as the God-cast Avatar here.

Even Beatrice said so, and the Emperor agreed.

That's strange.

"Beatrice, what's wrong with this city?"

Beatrice was silent for a moment, then sighed and said:

"Father said that we will know it when we are supposed to know it."

Louis: ??? Riddler, get out of here!

He has PTSD.

Judging from the emperor's character, he has probably completed the layout in advance and is waiting for latecomers to reap the rewards.

I just don’t know if they are the ones who reap the harvest.

"My father didn't arrange for me to handle it. This time I came here mainly to deal with a special treasure."

After Beatrice said this, Louis felt relieved. He asked casually, "What treasure requires you to come and handle it?"

Beatrice looked at Louis and said, "Strictly speaking, it has a lot to do with you as well."

"ah?"

Louis was confused.

How did it get to him?

Beatrice says:

"To be precise, you have come into contact with similar treasures."

Louis was stunned for a moment.

Robert City is the capital of art and one of the top three auction venues in the empire.

Because of the special nature of this place, the auctions here mainly sell precious art treasures,

Art capital, artworks, auctions, treasures...

This series of key words flashed through his mind, and he said cautiously:

"Could it be Ms. Xilin's world-famous painting?"

Among the limited knowledge he had about art, the best of the great works he had come across was naturally the work of Ms. Celine.

The otherworldly version of Ma Liang with the magic brush, or the high-magic version of a genius painter.

Beatrice smiled and said, "Congratulations, you guessed it right. We came here this time because we need to buy a painting from Ms. Xilin. Its name is--"

"Snow Country Border."
