01.
After the conversation just now, there was silence in the church. After a long time, the rain outside finally started to fall. Gray rain streaks interspersed together in the dark sky. The rain was not heavy, but more to make the whole environment look It's cooler.
Teresa knew that he couldn't stay silent all the time, so he spoke first, "So, what do you think of today's communication?"
"I understand your attitude better." The Pope said, "You can also talk about your current thoughts."
"I thought I was done," Theresa said.
"Then you can talk about what you want to do now, I know you don't want to do the tasks I assigned you." The Pope said.
"What do I want to do now..." Teresa repeated gently. At this time, the rain was getting heavier, and it was close to the summer heavy rain in the general sense. The whole rainy day became violent, and the raindrops hit the The ground was broken into thousands of water droplets, and these water droplets were intertwined, making the entire surface hazy. Teresa said slowly: "I still think that I should do those things. Someone has to do it. If I do it, at least I can ensure that no more innocent people will be hurt."
He understands what he said, and he also understands what his choice will make him choose to bear.
The Pope nodded, "You have a good idea."
"The other thing is," Teresa said after hesitating for a moment, "I, I want to talk to the Dark Pope or the Demon King himself."
This made the Pope curious: "Aren't you afraid?"
"Uh," Theresa didn't know what attitude she should use to say this, which was actually a bit embarrassing, "I don't think they will kill me."
"That's true." The Pope nodded, "Then you can't hurt them on the spur of the moment."
Teresa felt even weirder, but he could only answer "Yes", after he finished speaking, he mourned for his integrity, and then said: "Then I will trouble you and them to make a request, that, I You must also state my name before making a communication request."
"Um?"
Teresa made an excuse for herself: "Because my reputation with the demons should be very bad, it's better to tell in advance, otherwise they saw me and killed me in the last impulse...that's what." Well, in fact, he was worried that His Majesty Greenwald and His Majesty Monroe would refuse to meet with people who 'do not know the details', so he asked the Pope to propose his name...
This feeling of openly collaborating with the enemy in front of the Pope is still a bit exciting, but there is no way, Teresa has not contacted them for too long, and the current situation is too dangerous to meet in private, it is better to meet directly.
When Teresa left the church, he saw that the Pope was looking at the statue of the God of Light with the scepter, and the shadow of the statue covered him. This back... Teresa walked directly into the majestic rain, and he remembered what the Pope said just now-what I pursue has never been greatness.
02.
Soon Monroe received a meeting request from the Pope of Light. He immediately understood Teresa's thoughts after hearing the request from the 'Bishop Shelley'. He couldn't help laughing, Teresa really It's getting smarter.
But on the surface, there is still work to be done. Monroe made replies such as "that traitor", "Is he the so-called bishop who is closest to the devil?" "Actually, I have nothing to say to him, but the devil is very interested in him." After agreeing to meet. The meeting place is in Yulan City, which is the absolute home field for the demons. Teresa pretended to hesitate again and again, and finally agreed.
Next is the Fireworks Festival of the Magnolia Continent, which is unprecedentedly grand this year. Originally, the Fireworks Festival was just a festival in Yulan City, but with the increasing cultural exchanges and with the help of the demons, many festivals have spread from regional festivals to the whole continent. Hill intends to hold the Fireworks Festival as a typical example. .
With such a big wave of his hand, all countries started to prepare, gunpowder fireworks, magic fireworks, various performances... Hill evenly distributed the stars launched by the demon world to each country, so that there would be fireworks festivals in those regions. star. Then there was a one-day martial arts contest in the Fireworks Festival. The winners could get 1000 magic spar and have the qualifications to visit the demon army for free, and they can also directly choose to become a general of humans or demons .
1,000 magic spar is a huge sum of money for most people, and that person can choose to become a general... Well, if the champion is not a warrior who has direct interests in the imperial family, then most of the winners will probably choose to lead Some demons.
Wow, that's becoming a demon general! I get excited just thinking about it!
Of course, in the eyes of human rulers, Hill’s trick is a bit shameless. You just poached our human warriors away... If they said that, Hill would reply sanctimoniously: "That's theirs." self-chosen."
It's a pity that no one asked, which made Hill a little disappointed.
The specific plan for the Fireworks Festival was created by Hill lazily and brainstorming. He directly solicited proposals in the magazine, and many submitted proposals were really good, so Hill put together those proposals and made a complete set. He is now in these On the one hand, I hope that I can use my brain less and use my brain less.
Bonfire night, small trolley snacks, all kinds of barbecue, poultry meat, as well as toasted toffee, cotton candy and other fresh and delicious things. Coffee pineapple fried rice, rich coffee flavor, sweet and sour pineapple flavor, the feeling of mixing together is enough to make any sweet tooth addicted; delicious grilled fish with crispy skin and tender meat, you can smell the burnt aroma from a distance The aroma mixed with the sauce; the grilled sausage threaded on a wooden stick is full of meaty aroma; various flavors of fairy bean cakes, meat floss, mung beans, and pearl milk tea, each taste is a unique taste. New World... This kind of gourmet feast is very satisfying for both adults and children
The most important thing in the fireworks festival is of course all kinds of fireworks. Hill took out half of the fireworks researched by the black dwarf. Fireworks in the sky, in the air, and held by people on the ground, magic fireworks are full of fun, but gunpowder fireworks are not inferior. All the shops had their windows wide open, and the hillside outside was full of people. Everyone wore all kinds of beautiful clothes and carefully dressed, which became a new landscape in itself.
milheim. The Royal Palace of Winter City.
Ice Empress Claude and Olivia stood on the terrace, the sky was filled with light, and their pupils were also dazzled by various lights. Ice Emperor Claude looked up at the night sky and asked, "Are these really the traditions of the demons?"
"Yes or not is not important anymore." Olivia also looked at the fireworks in the sky, "Because what happened to us now will belong to our country in the future."
"You're right, Ollie," Cloud said.
There was a burst of cheers from below, a man and a woman started dancing in the middle of the bonfire in the square, the people around applauded, the bard played the lute, and everyone started dancing too.
Olivia glanced at Ice Empress, and found that the other party was eager to try, she smiled: "No, Claude."
Ice Empress Claude also smiled. He took a step back, then saluted Olivia as a gentleman, and then stretched out his hand: "Do I have the honor to dance with you? My queen .”
Olivia put her hand in his palm, "Of course, my king."
The people below danced happily under the bard's playing.
Olivia and Ice Emperor Claude were dancing quietly on the palace terrace.
There is no music and accompaniment, only brilliant fireworks blooming and blooming in the air one after another.

Magnolia Empire. Magnolia City.
Emperor Yulan said with emotion: "This is really beautiful."
Elder Jackson said from the side: "The temperature is already quite high now, and we should pay attention to fire prevention when holding this kind of fireworks festival."
"Hahahaha old Jackson, you are making sarcastic remarks again, you are always so spoiling the scenery." Emperor Yulan said.
Old Jackson smiled and didn't say anything, but left the palace and went out to set up fire prevention tasks.
Not long after, Theodore caught up with him in the corridor: "You seem to have a good temper today, Your Excellency the Duke."
"After all, today is a holiday. Let him be happy if he wants to be happy." Old Jackson said, "I recalled some things from the past."
"That's it." Theodore nodded, and the old Jackson noticed that he was pinning the badge of the Grand Master's Assistant to his body, which meant that he was about to enter work.
"Aren't you going to accompany your Highness the Princess?" Old Jackson asked.
"After the company, I told her that I'd better go out and do business now. I have my affairs, and she has hers." Theodore replied.
"You are a good pair, both are independent." Old Jackson praised.
Theodore pinned the badge on the button, then nodded, "Well, we have each other's worlds, and our worlds also overlap. I think this relationship is very good."
Old Jackson said a few more words of praise and encouragement, then he looked at the fireworks outside and said, "You go to be in charge of the outer city, dispatch mages and soldiers in time to monitor the fire, and I'll go and see the inner city."
"Okay, my lord duke."

Caribbean Sea. Bird of Death.
Alice has been on the Bird of Death recently, and the pirates all know that she is the adopted daughter of the Demon King, so she is having a good time here.
Hill wanted to expose her to a variety of things, so every once in a while he sent her to a different place for her to experience.
Jack, who had been promoted to a senior sailor that day, carried a bunch of things on the deck after nightfall.
"What's this?"
"What are you going to do?"
"A new gadget from the devil world?"
Standing in front of the pile of things, Jack announced to everyone: "Today is the Fireworks Festival, and we don't have time to go back to the mainland recently, so the first officer decided to find a small island for the Fireworks Festival tonight. Take it all out and share.”
"Wow! Long live the mate! Long live the captain!"
"Long live!"
The pirates who were drunk today immediately cheered.
The Death Bird quickly found a small island, which was really small, only about the size of a football field. They lit the fire and lit the fireworks, and the reflection of the fireworks on the sea was really beautiful. Alice stood on the edge of the beach looking up at the fireworks, all of which came to her mind.
A pirate walked over and said kindly, "If I had a daughter, she would grow up to this size."
"Fart, you can't even get a wife." Another pirate said ruthlessly.
"I told you that the girl ten years ago really wanted to marry me! She was a noble lady!" The pirate tried to win the honor.
"Just go dreaming hahaha..." the pirate just now laughed and said, and the other pirates also booed and laughed.
"Hahaha yes, I'll just dream!" The pirate also laughed, his laughter was a little relieved, but no one noticed, even if they noticed, it doesn't matter, everyone is a pirate, unrestrained pirate.

Plague Islands.
While reviewing the accounts, Joan Baker found that there was something wrong with a number. He was about to go to the people under his hand to settle the accounts with the documents, but as soon as he arrived in the backyard, he saw the other party and his lover standing there watching the fireworks.
Joan Baker glanced at the fireworks blooming in the sky, and for the first time, he didn't walk in so coldly to forcefully pull the other party out.
Forget it, Joan Baker thought, although he doesn't know what's so good about these flashy things, he should try to understand it. He took care of this matter by himself. Thinking of this, he went to the study. After hesitating for a while, he opened the window, then sat at the desk and started working.
There are bursts of fireworks outside, and the room is also flickering.
Joan Baker flipped through the accounts page by page, occasionally looked up at the fireworks, and found that some restless emotions were immediately calmed down.
Does it feel like this
He lowered his head and continued to look at the accounts, with an invisible smile on his lips.

Dijon tribe.
Hill held the red wine on the top floor of the courtyard and watched the carnival below. He took a sip of the red wine and said to the Lich Alighieri next to him, "They look very happy."
"Because you let these humans see too many things in a short period of time that they can hardly see in their lifetime." Lich Alighieri said.
"Well." Hill continued, "Monroe didn't come to accompany me today."
Lich Alighieri considered for a moment, and said, "After all, Monroe is the Dark Pope, and there are still many things about the Dark Pope."
"I think my business is more important," Hill said.
"Uh, it's fine if you understand it that way." Lich Alighieri said a little nervously.
"Haha, just kidding. After all, these people look so happy." Hill said, "I think the next anime can start playing tomorrow."
Finally not talking about that dangerous topic, Lich Alighieri breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What are you going to play?"
Hill smiled and said, "Girls' Last Tour."
Lich Alighieri: …
Lich Alighieri: "You, as long as you are happy."
"Girls Last Tour" ah... What a depressing thing that is... Sorrows to these humans...
