"Honey, honey! Look what I brought you to eat... ahhhh!"

Mia rushed into the room with food and was immediately frightened by Ask standing there:

"Captain Tuan Tuan! Why are you here?"

"I came to see what good things you have done." Ask said slowly.

"I..." Mia hid the food behind her, "This was given to me by the chef in the kitchen!"

"Oh, it should be given to you without your knowledge, right?" Ask said.

Mia: …

"Well, I'll give you a little bit at most, okay?" She reluctantly took out a box of candied fruit and forcefully stuffed it into Ask's hand, "Shut your mouth, you know nothing!"

What the hell is going on? Why do you think I would be bribed by your little food

Ask was at a loss for words, because the most difficult thing to understand was the mind of a little girl like this, which was impossible to guess.

"It's like this..." Ask told the two of them what happened, and the two girls were stunned.

"So Ask, are you finally going to start killing demigods again?" asked Mi'er.

"What do you mean by anew?" Ask asked.

"Didn't we kill someone last time in Constantinople?" Mier reminded him, "I told Mia about it, but she didn't believe it."

"Last time it was a sneak attack from a very long distance, and the other party accidentally lost control in order to protect Governor Venis. The situation this time is completely different..." Ask tried to educate the two of them how unreliable and dangerous it was to "kill a demigod."

"Can't we launch a long-distance sneak attack this time?" Mia asked curiously.

"Of course not." Ask said, "Mi'er has tried it, right? Bullets can't penetrate the opponent's defense at all."

"But doesn't the captain have that cheating Nine Swords?" Mia asked again.

"It's the Nine Star Styles." Mi'er said.

"Then you can defeat the demigod just by cheating, right?" Mia said, "Shouldn't demigods be able to cheat?"

Ask was speechless.

He also didn't know how to explain to the two little girls that "even with the Nine Star Styles, you can't defeat a demigod". It was all because the image he had established before was too great. In their hearts, he was almost a god.

To emphasize how dangerous demigods are now would be like slapping oneself in the face.

"Let's not talk about this." Ask mentioned the following events, "Once the civil war in the empire is over, the emperor will march south to Italy."

"Why does the emperor want to attack the Vatican?" Mia asked curiously, "Which side is good and which side is bad?"

"Eleanor's family is on the emperor's side," Mier added.

"Then the Church is evil." Mia said, "Can the emperor's army defeat the Church?"

"No way," said Ask.

"Then we shouldn't fight." Mia said, "Why fight a losing war?"

Ask was speechless after hearing what she said. After a while, he said, "Because we have accepted the mission to investigate the target in the Emperor's camp, we must join the Emperor's camp."

"Then just investigate and don't fight, okay?" Mia asked again, with so many questions that she was like a "little Eleanor".
