Chapter 602 : This is My Profession

In this remote corner of the park, the members of the Church of Reincarnation had already surrounded Felyn and Lecia.

And a little further away, nearly a hundred divine chains were surging in this direction. They were all here to contend for the Hero's Sword, "Saint Laeannos."

Valeria subconsciously waved at Felyn. She stood among the ranks, wearing the pure black robes of the Church of Reincarnation.

"Felyn, hand the relic over to us," Valeria reached out her hand towards Felyn. "I'll pull you into the team to participate in the Hero's Festival. After all, this can be considered your contribution."

"Lady Valeria! On what grounds!"

Dissatisfied voices came from the Church of Reincarnation members behind her. They were not willing to let Felyn join Valeria's team.

"Because... because..." Valeria couldn't say it. The order from the church elders to build a good relationship with Felyn needed to be kept absolutely secret. "Anyway, Felyn, hand the relic over to us, and the Church of Reincarnation will protect you. Otherwise..."

She looked around. "Tonight, to fight for the Hero's Sword, all the major churches have sent many people. You and Her Highness Lecia alone won't be able to get out of here. You might even be in mortal danger."

Valeria ignored the gazes of the people behind her. She walked past the vanguard members and came to the very front.

"Felyn, I know you have a problem with me, but..."

"Okay, I agree."

"Eh, eh?!"

Valeria was prepared to be rejected by Felyn again, but she didn't expect Felyn to actually agree.

"Really? Did I hear that right?" Valeria covered her mouth, her voice tinged with joy.

This joy made the church members behind her frown.

"You heard right, Miss Valeria."

Felyn tried to pull the relic sword from Lianlora's hands, only to find that the little girl was surprisingly strong and wouldn't let go no matter what.

It was forcibly bound to him.

"Felyn, then hand the relic to me first. I promise I won't leave you behind," Valeria waved her hand, and the surrounding Church of Reincarnation members came to Felyn's side, forming an even smaller encirclement.

Valeria walked up to Felyn, the curve of her lips a genuine smile.

Felyn has finally forgiven me.

The rest would be simple. As long as she teamed up with Felyn, then their relationship would get better and better, and finally, she would pull Eitani into the Church of Reincarnation as well. Then her own status could be elevated again.

And she would also let Daiyi and the others see that her, Valeria's, charm was in no way inferior to theirs.

Felyn interrupted Valeria's thoughts: "I can't get it off. You can pull the sword out."

Valeria found it a little strange that Lianlora, who was very good at escaping and fighting, was hugging Felyn's waist like a well-behaved child.

She tried to pull the sword in Lianlora's hands but found that she couldn't take it off no matter what.

"Lady Valeria, you have to use divine art to shatter Her Highness Lianlora's soul body," someone from the crowd reminded her.

Valeria nodded and said to Felyn, "You and Lianlora should separate, otherwise the divine art will hurt you."

Felyn shook his head. "I've tried that too, I just can't pull it off."

"How can that be?!"

Just as her voice fell, an explosion occurred nearby.

The fiery light of the divine art explosion instantly illuminated the surrounding woods, bringing a trace of gravity to everyone's faces.

The shockwave kicked up the dust on the ground, causing the robes of the Church of Reincarnation members to flutter powerlessly in the air.

At this moment, members of other churches rushed out from the woods from all directions, launching the most ferocious attack on the Church of Reincarnation.

Every church knew the importance of the Hero's Sword, so those who came here were all elites.

Countless fourth-tier divine arts fell from the sky like a world-ending meteor shower, smashing down hard on the heads of Valeria and her group.

"Enemy contact!"

The melee began.

The Church of Reincarnation was skilled in defense, and countless barrier shields blocked the attacks from the air.

The members on the periphery had already engaged in close combat with other church followers, getting entangled in the fray.

The Church of Reincarnation had also dispatched elites today, but facing the siege of nearly a hundred people, they were still somewhat unable to hold their ground.

For a time, the light of divine arts changed constantly here, and the surrounding trees and buildings were razed to the ground in the melee.

And at the center of this chaotic battle, Valeria kept trying to pull Lianlora off, wanting to leave with the relic.

Once they were out of the guards' encirclement, the battle would be forcibly ended.

The relic would then completely belong to the Church of Reincarnation.

"Lady Valeria, just use divine art on the two of them directly!" A slightly older member of the Church of Reincarnation, Flos, was a little anxious. She saw that the Church of Reincarnation's defensive line was gradually beginning to collapse.

"The offensive from the surrounding churches is too fierce. If we keep holding on here, we'll be completely wiped out!"

"But if we use divine art on them, Felyn, he..." Valeria didn't want to do that.

Flos grabbed Valeria's arm and said to her, "Lady Valeria, I know you like Felyn, but shouldn't you put the interests of the Church of Reincarnation first? We've prepared for so long for tonight. Isn't it right for him to make a sacrifice for the church?"

"Since he has already agreed to team up with you, then he should have the corresponding resolve. Even if he dies in the divine art, the God of Reincarnation will bless him."

Flos's family was high-ranking in the church, which was why she dared to speak to Valeria like this.

The light of divine art began to appear in the hands of several surrounding church members, ready to make a move on Felyn.

They only had eyes for the relic. As for Felyn, they didn't care.

"No, Felyn can't die, I..." Valeria turned back to look for Felyn's position, preparing to protect him at this moment to make him rely on her a little more.

But when she turned back, she found that Felyn was already gone.

"Where is he?!"

Taking advantage of the chaos, Felyn, who was in the center of the crowd, took off his clothes, covered the head of Lianlora's soul body, and used the enhancement and concealment art seals given to him by Daiyi to slip away directly.

Everyone thought that the Church of Reincarnation had obtained the relic, so their attention was focused on the members of the Church of Reincarnation.

None of them had expected that the child in Felyn's arms was Lianlora. They had never seen Lianlora being held so obediently by someone.

Some even thought that Felyn and his group were just innocent civilians taking a walk in the park.

Lecia followed closely by Felyn's side, the two of them putting more and more distance between themselves and the battle behind them.

"Felyn, you're such a scumbag. Actually deceiving a girl."

"Isn't this my old profession? Your Highness should also be careful not to be deceived by me."

"Are you thinking of taking both my sister and me?" Lecia glared at Felyn and pouted.

The two dared not stop for any rest.

The church members behind them would most likely discover their position soon. After all, they all had art seal devices to detect Lianlora's soul body.

It was only a matter of time before they were caught.

And at that time, Felyn would have to face the wrath of the Church of Reincarnation.

Just thinking about it was terrifying.

"Uu..."

The Lianlora soul body in Felyn's arms finally made a move. She struggled, raised her head, and looked at the sky.

"What's wrong?"

Felyn looked at the sky while running and seemed to vaguely see a white meteor.
