City of Glory, Golden Township Resort Manor.

As an external delegation, the angels were arranged to stay here by the City Lord's Mansion, and Maria, as the Young City Lord, was also pulled to do hard labor by her mother, who was the City Lord. At this time, she was accompanying the angels as a representative.

Of course, it is said to be accompanying, but it is actually surveillance. After all, putting such a group of disaster foreign species in her own territory, there will always be some unease, especially the leader of this angel delegation, who is a big shot in Heaven.

The supreme ruler of Heaven was once the nine Kings of Angels, but the most talented Morning Star Lord defected and fell into the King of Fallen Angels of Hell, and the strongest Lord of Radiance was sealed by the witches. There are only seven Kings of Angels left.

It's just that like the Witch King who doesn't care much about things, the King of Angels generally rarely manages Heaven's affairs in person. The people who really hold power in Heaven are the major Archangels.

It's just that unlike the witches who are uniformly led by the Sage Council, the major Archangels in Heaven are not harmonious. They are more for their own masters, and the internal fighting among them is serious.

And this Sariel is an Archangel, and also an Archangel under the Lord of Radiance. In the tens of thousands of years that the Lord of Radiance has been away, it is he who has commanded the old subordinates of the Lord of Radiance to fight against the factions of the other seven Kings of Angels.

Although the power of the Lord of Radiance has indeed shrunk a lot these years, changing from the strongest in the past to the weakest today, just looking at the fact that he can still deal with the oppression of the other seven major forces in the absence of his own King of Angels and firmly protect his own side from being swallowed by others, the ability of this Lord Sariel can be seen.

And such a powerful Archangel would actually lead the team in person because of an academic exchange delegation of a group of young angels, which is really not normal no matter how you think about it.

Especially considering that this Sariel is still an old subordinate of the Lord of Radiance, it makes people worry about whether he came to destroy the seal of the Lord of Radiance.

In short, the City of Glory, which does not know the seal situation, is very worried. If possible, they actually don't want to let people in, but their procedures are complete, and there is no reason to block people, so they have to send people to keep an eye on them, lest this group of angels want to do something crooked.

"Sister Maria, this group of angels really doesn't seem to want to do anything. They have been quite law-abiding."

The blue-haired six-winged angel witch's eyes were a bit sore from staring. She blinked and said to her eldest sister.

Her spirit has been tense since this group of angels came, but after being vigilant for a long time, she still found nothing.

"Michelle, don't relax your vigilance. This group of angels must not have any omissions on our side. The people from the Tribunal should come over to take over later."

The blonde Chief of Staff Seris hurriedly comforted her companion who had no patience.

"Hmm, if you count the time, the people from the Tribunal should be here soon. It's more reassuring to leave this kind of thing to those professionals."

Maria also nodded and said so.

Although the Tribunal has a bad reputation, every time they encounter this kind of situation, having those professionals there is exceptionally reassuring.

Maria really hopes that the Tribunal can send some strong people this time, preferably to keep an eye on this group of angels, otherwise she is really a bit uneasy.

After all, the Saintess's plan is about to begin, and she doesn't want any variables to appear in the future because of the arrival of this group of angels at this juncture.

Because of the confession with Lady Sophie Liya in the afternoon, Maria is now sincerely willing to have a big fight with this special netizen.

It's a bit shameful to say, but when Lady Sophie Liya told the story in the afternoon, she looked very moved, but in fact, she was secretly playing tricks.

Although others often say that she has a saintly style, and she herself considers herself a good person, sometimes she is indeed a bit overflowing with sympathy, especially when she sees little witches suffering, but as the Young City Lord of the City of Glory and the Deputy Admiral of the Apocalypse Fleet, Maria never acts blindly and impulsively on major issues.

She can sacrifice herself for her kindness, but she cannot drag the entire family and others in the fleet to bet everything because of that kindness.

Forcing others to sacrifice for their own love is really unreasonable. Being generous at others' expense is not a righteous act.

She was indeed moved by Lady Sophie Liya's strange life experience and tragic fate, and was willing to do her best to help her, but this was limited to herself, and would not bet on the family and the fleet.

What really made Maria decide to bet everything was not because of this boring pity, but because of the other party's sincerity.

They say that you know people, you know faces, but you don't know hearts, and hearts are hard to measure, but for her, hearts can really be observed.

Maria was born with a special talent called 【True Pupil Saintess】. This is not an inherited talent from her family, but a mutated talent.

【True Pupil Saintess (ssr): You have a natural saintly heart. Your talent for justice, compassion, and healing is greatly improved. Your affinity with cubs of any race is greatly improved. The friendliness of those with justice in their hearts toward you is greatly improved. But a benevolent saint also needs caution. There are always those with darkness in their hearts and those who are beyond cure who will try to use your pity and compassion. You need a pair of bright eyes that can see through the truth. Whenever you practice the saintly way, you will be able to see through the target's true heart.】

This is the reason why Maria finally decided to sincerely follow Lady Sophie Liya and honor her as the Saintess.

Listening to others' repentance and sins is in line with the saintly way. Therefore, when Lady Sophie Liya confessed to her before, Maria's talent had already been activated.

This is not mind reading, and cannot directly listen to the other party's inner voice, but in a sense, this is stronger than mind reading. After all, mind readers can sometimes be deceived, but she won't.

Because her observation is completely idealistic. As long as she asks a question in her heart when observing, she can directly observe the answer.

And what Maria was thinking in her heart at that time was not questions like "Is Sophie Liya deceiving me" or "Does Sophie Liya harbor malice toward me."

"Is Lady Sophie Liya worth my betting everything to follow? Is she someone who can be trusted, will not betray, has consistent interests with me, and can help me realize my ideals?"

This was the inquiry in Maria's heart at that time, and her talent also told her the answer truthfully.

That was an affirmative answer.

The conclusion Maria observed was that this Lady Sophie Liya was not a good person in the normal sense. She was a firm egoist, someone who could be cold-blooded and ruthless to achieve her goals, but her goals were indeed consistent with her own. As long as she could ascend, she would definitely do her best to revive the Angel Witch race, because this was originally part of realizing her own ideals.

She was also someone who could be trusted and would not betray, because although everyone had different purposes, they were indeed walking on the same road. Once they betrayed each other, it was actually equivalent to betraying themselves.

Thus, the answer was very obvious.

She was not betting everything for a moment of kindness, but for the common ideals of the family and the fleet, swearing loyalty to Lady Sophie Liya.

Also because of this, she was particularly worried now. After all, the master she was loyal to had the blood of the Lord of Radiance, and now that the loyal ministers of the Lord of Radiance had arrived, she was afraid that Lady Sophie Liya would be abducted by this group of angels.

Fortunately, her worries were soon relieved.

"Who is..."

Maria suddenly frowned, her gaze fixed on a door not far away. With her Peak-level strength, she could feel that this originally ordinary door suddenly became deep and mysterious.

And seeing her reaction, Michelle and Seris also hurriedly became vigilant.

Not only these three witches, but in the angel delegation on the side, Sariel and a young six-winged angel beside him also looked toward this side.

Soon, the door that looked ordinary opened, and a tall figure wearing a black battle robe and a mask walked out.

That height of more than two meters, the dragon horns on the top of the head, and the dragon scales faintly visible on the exposed skin explained her race. This was a Dragon Witch.

And the iconic black robe, the strange clown mask, and the token shining with silver light on her waist indicated the other party's identity.

This was a Grand Inquisitor from the Tribunal.

Maria and the two sisters beside her recognized the identity of this person wearing a strange clown mask at a glance. After all, this one was the reason they chose to return.

This was clearly the ruthless person who had raided the ancestral court of the Angel Kingdom with great courage not long ago.

To be honest, although Maria and others were disappointed with the ancestral court and went out to break through, they didn't like the people in the ancestral court, and even gloated when the rice buckets in the ancestral court were caught, but this didn't mean they would like this Grand Inquisitor who raided the ancestral court.

After all, no matter what, they were still angel witches. Internal fighting among their own people was one thing, but being bullied by others was another.

It's just that this didn't prevent the three witches from breathing a sigh of relief at this time. After all, even if they didn't like this Clown Grand Inquisitor, they had to admit that this one was indeed very strong and very bold.

After all, the Inquisitors of the Tribunal have always been domineering, but someone like Lord Clown who dares to confront the descendants of the Three Kings head-on is the first time in witch history.

But thinking that this tricky angel delegation was about to be watched by this ruthless person, Maria and others were exceptionally reassured. After all, this one really dared to go up when something happened.

It's just that such reassurance didn't last long, because they found that the people following this Clown Grand Inquisitor were not the elite troops of the Tribunal they expected, but a group of newbie squads that looked like newbies, and behind this newbie squad were various servant armies dancing in groups.

Maria and the three: "..."

Angel Delegation: "..."

Both sides had a bunch of question marks on their heads at the same time.

Is this the person sent by the Tribunal? Could it be that the Tribunal is already short of manpower to this extent?

Fortunately, when the hundred-person Moon Rabbit Knight Order finally appeared, both sides had emotional reversals again.

From suspecting that the Tribunal was short of people at the beginning, it turned into: Lord Grand Inquisitor, are you here to show off?

Whether it was the three angel witches or the angel delegation that had been quite calm, they all stared at the Moon Rabbit Knight Order with envious eyes.

After all, angels actually like the Moon Rabbit race even more than witches. After all, angels want faith, and loyal Moon Rabbits, once they recognize their master, start as pious believers, and with a little strengthening, they become fanatic believers. Ask which religion doesn't love such leeks... ah, loyal believers.

The only trouble is that this group of Moon Rabbits are mostly atheists. It is really too difficult to spread faith to them. Even Heaven has no way to deal with these stubborn Moon Rabbits. After all, they can use force to force other races to submit, but if you force Moon Rabbits, they can really be stubborn enough to fight to the last soldier without surrendering.

Wanting to conquer Moon Rabbits really only has one way to make the other party convinced, which really depends on luck.

On the other side, Dorothy was also very satisfied with her appearance. She now really realized what kind of treasure the Moon Rabbits she had been quite disgusted with before were. This is even more vanity-satisfying than taking a beautiful girlfriend out for a stroll.

Hey, be envious, be jealous, I just like to see you guys being envious and jealous.

Really cool.

The Home Witch felt secretly cool.

Fortunately, she hadn't forgotten to maintain her b-grade, and didn't get too carried away.

At the moment, she took off her silver dragon card from her waist, first showed it to the three angel witch acquaintances she met in the afternoon, and then cast her gaze toward the angel delegation opposite.

"Tribunal Grand Inquisitor Clown, by the order of Grand Inquisitor Miejin, came to perform the bodyguard task. Please pay attention to cooperate with our work later. After all, you have seen it, I am just newly appointed, and my manpower is insufficient. If there is any chaos, I may not be able to guard you."

She didn't get used to this group of angels who were guests at all, and said so.

Actually, according to Dorothy's personality, she is not used to talking to people like this, because it is easy to offend people and cause trouble. This is not consistent with her philosophy of avoiding trouble as much as possible.

But there is no way, the task document given by Mother required her to be tough in attitude and to suppress the spirit of this group of angels as much as possible, preferably giving a warning.

The Home Witch was helpless, so she had to do this, and she even felt that she might not be domineering enough, so she directly handed over the control of her body to the Fairy King and retired to the second line to watch the play.

Hmm, it can only be said that it is worthy of being the Fairy King. This opening is really sarcastic.

"In short, please cooperate. I think you shouldn't want me to help you cooperate with that situation."

The Fairy King then added such a sentence.

Ah, this, even Dorothy felt that her little four was really asking for a beating, and she looked at the angel delegation again...

Oh, it's not surprising at all. The young angels who came to exchange were all having several "well" characters on their foreheads, and they were really angry.

.... Angel anger accumulating...
