"What did you say?!" Regnar's eyes became sharp in an instant. Wasn't it given to her by Pelor? So where does Eileen's power come from? !
Don't think that Regnar's nervousness is all a fuss. Power of unknown origin has always meant unparalleled danger and insidious plots. Irene's sudden power can certainly make Regnar feel relieved about this girl's safety. But if these powers were obtained through certain transactions and missions, then Regnar would rather be by her side forever to protect her at all times.
"What on earth is going on?! Where did those powers come from!?" Regnar asked sharply. If it was Peiro, he would at least be able to talk to this guy now. But if Irene obtained her power from a god whose name she didn't even know, this would become troublesome.
Fortunately, things were not as bad as Regnar imagined. Pero glanced at Irene unintentionally, and then said, "Those powers are mine. However, they were not given to her by me."
"..." Regnar was stunned for a moment after hearing this: "What do you mean?"
"She took those powers from me." Pero replied helplessly.
"From you... seize..." When Regnar heard this, cold sweat immediately flowed from his forehead.
Take power from the gods! Although these powers are only a drop in the bucket to the Sun God, this means that the existence of Irene can pose a threat to Pelor himself! In this case, it's hard to say whether Perot would...
"If you dare..."
"I killed her, what can you do to me?" Pero asked jokingly.
"If you really dare to do this, then I swear!" Regnar gritted his teeth and said to Pero: "Whether it is the most powerful devil in the Nine Hells or the most terrifying devil in the Endless Abyss. I will not hesitate to do so. Trade with them at all costs to gain power, and I will destroy everything about you until not even the dregs are left! I swear!"
"At all costs?" Pero looked at Regnar with a smile, and then asked: "Can your price include the two women Annelotte and Inelise? In order to avenge Irene, what will you do? Are you willing to hand them over to the devil?"
"..." Regnar did not answer, but he still looked at Pero fiercely.
Pero seemed very satisfied when he saw Regnar's reaction. The golden light in the eyes of his statue shone a little brighter again, and just like No. 1, Pero began to use his power to peek into the future fragments that happened to Regnar. And with Regnar's reaction at this time as a reference, Napero is even more certain that the future will develop with the outcome he expected.
"If you really want to play, then I will play with you to the end. Naraku, but when the time comes, are you really sure to bear his anger?" When those fragmented fragments of the future flashed in Pero's mind As they passed by, the Sun God couldn't help but think to himself.
He looked at the protagonist of his plan, Regnar, who was still nervous about Irene's life and death, and then let out deafening laughter again.
"Why are you laughing?!" Regnar shouted to cover up his inner uneasiness.
"You don't need to be nervous." Pero said calmly: "The reason why Irene was able to take away my power is actually just because her actions are very consistent with the priesthood I am in charge of."
"I do not understand."
"I am a god who symbolizes kindness and light, but this girl Eileen has hardly done any evil things to harm others in the past twenty years. It can be said that she is so kind that even I find it incredible. In order to commend her for her actions , the rules of the original plane naturally gifted her with a divine power word in her mind." Pero explained patiently: "And that power word can take away a negligible amount of power from me, and this power word is also It’s a one-time thing. So, I naturally don’t have to worry about any threats she poses to me.”
"..." Regnar did not answer, but his eyes were filled with suspicion and distrust.
"Don't take mortals too seriously, Regnar." Pero's voice began to become majestic again: "In this endless river of time, there are indeed many gods who have been pulled down from the altar by mortals, and some Many mortals have lit divine fires and become almost eternal existences. But if you zoom in on the long river of time, you will find that even one such mortal may not appear for thousands of years. The current Irene is far away to me Not far enough to pose a threat. On the contrary, she can be regarded as my most devout believer. As her faith and refuge, if I do something to harm her, it will shake the foundation of my faith."
"What Irene believes in is the true kindness and peace of this world, not you. Moreover, the person who can really protect her is me, not you." Regnar coldly contradicted Pero, but in the end he There is no denying Perrault's statement.
Indeed, although the gods are divided into good and evil, there is no doubt that the guys who can work tirelessly from the mortal stage and finally ignite the divine fire naturally have one thing in common: they are not stupid.
And Erin…
Regnar couldn't help but shake his head when he thought of this girl. A half-elf is the kind of silly girl who is so stupid that she happily counts money for others after being sold. Not to mention that she doesn't have enough power to threaten the gods. Even if she does, she doesn't have enough intelligence to seize Pelor's priesthood. Regnar himself couldn't even imagine how Irene would behave if she became a goddess. Therefore, there is no need for Pero to be suspicious of such a silly girl.
Afraid of Erin? Isn't Pelor afraid of being laughed at by the other gods
However, for the sake of safety, Regnar still did not relax completely. He looked at Perot and said, "Can I discuss a deal with you?"
"Oh?" Pero looked a little surprised: "Tell me about it."
"I will control Irene's power to continue to grow. As a condition, I hope you can promise that you will never hurt Irene." Regnar said sincerely.
"You just want my guarantee?"
"That's right. If God's guarantee is not enough to be trusted, then I really can't think of anyone else whose guarantee can be trusted." Regnar nodded. Destructive power was not particularly necessary for Irene. . Although the power of a high-level priest is not enough for her to dominate the world, self-protection is not a problem.
Therefore, Regnar did not intend to let Irene continue to become stronger. Otherwise, if one day she becomes so powerful that Pelor cannot ignore her, then things will really become a headache. Regnar felt that instead of doing this, it would be better to lower his profile now and let Pero understand that neither he nor Irene had much interest in becoming a god. If this can bring even a trace of Irene's safety, then Regnar feels that the deal is worth it.
"Although it won't take long, you will understand that God's promises are the least trustworthy." Pero thought in his heart, but he still nodded: "It's a very reasonable request. If it is just my guarantee, I will make it now I can give it to you. Erin is my believer and I will not hurt her."
"Very good." Regnar couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the assurance: "Thank you... thank you."
The bright golden light on the statue of Peluo slowly disappeared. It seemed that Peluo only gave Regnar so much time. And when the time came, he left without even saying hello.
Regnar opened his mouth. He originally wanted to find out something about No. 1 from Pero. But I didn't expect that Pero would leave so suddenly.
Anyway, Pero is not a fool. Since there are some things that he refuses to say, then even if Regnar tries hard, it won't have any effect. He kept every word that Peiro said today firmly in mind, and then prepared to study it carefully when he had time.
"Brother Regnar..." Irene opened her sleepy eyes. It seemed that Pero was not lying. Although Irene accidentally took away some of his power, the Sun God was not in a crisis because of such a thing. Exploding, he killed Eileen.
"Are you awake?" Regnar stood in front of Irene and kissed her forehead gently.
"Hmm..." Irene looked at Regnar, and then suddenly recalled something.
Irene wasn't really sleeping when Regnar and Pero were talking just now. Her spirit was pulled into the illusion again by Pero. There, Pero also gave some additional explanations to Irene.
Eileen touched a small pocket on the belly of her shepherd's robe, where there was a pure transparent gemstone the size of a dove egg. This was the gift that Pelor gave to Irene when she first came to her.
And now, Erin finally knew the use of this thing. But seriously... If this gem has such a function, doesn't it mean...
When Erin thought of this, she couldn't help but secretly pray that she would never have the chance to use this thing.
…
Within the Military Intelligence Office, Regner was not in the office because he needed to figure out the source of Irene's power today. At this time, Snow was sitting there, dealing with various chores in the Military Intelligence Department.
"Sir Snow, Wendy is here to report." Wendy, the girl agent who was responsible for protecting Irene before, knocked on the door and walked in.
"Is the injury healed?" Snow looked up at Wendy, and then asked softly.
"Yes, thanks to Miss Irene, Wendy's injury healed quickly." Wendy replied.
"Then, you should understand why I asked you to come here, right?" Snow said with a hint of apology.
"Yes." Wendy nodded: "Don't worry, Sir Snow, my subordinate will go to the Ministry of Justice to collect the punishment, and it will not implicate Sir Regner in any way."
"As long as you understand." Snow stood up and bowed his head slightly to Wendy: "I'm sorry about this."
"My subordinates resign." Wendy didn't say much. After confirming the arrangements of the department, she left. But until she left, Wendy didn't feel any dissatisfaction or guilt in her heart.
Because Regner didn't know about this. At least Wendy knew there was someone willing to disobey the king's orders for her own sake. If this is the case, then Wendy naturally has the courage to accept the fate of becoming a slave for him. The only regret is that Wendy may never see him again.
