1669th "Desire"
"Ugh?"
When Emilia woke up from her sleep, Fang Li's figure was clearly reflected in her sleepy eyes.
"are you awake?"
Fang Li smiled slightly at Emilia.
But Emilia didn't show any obvious reaction, she stared blankly at Fang Li, and didn't murmur until after a while.
"Is it a hallucination again?"
Talking to herself like this, Emilia propped herself up, patted her cheek, and after pulling herself together, she looked in Fang Li's direction again.
However, Fang Li, who thought Emilia was hallucinating, stood in front of her with a speechless face, and did not disappear at all.
This surprised Emilia all of a sudden.
"that…"
At the moment, Emilia hesitated for a while and asked weakly.
"It's really Fang Li?"
Hearing this, Fang Li rolled his eyes at Emilia.
"Who else could it be if it wasn't me?" Fang Li said angrily, "Or you don't want to see me? Then I'll leave?"
After speaking, Fang Li made a gesture to leave.
"Wait...wait! No...! It's not like that...!"
Emilia panicked, stood up quickly, and grabbed Fang Li's clothes.
The flustered look made Fang Li feel funny all of a sudden.
"Snapped!"
Fang Li flicked Emilia's forehead.
"it hurts…!"
Emilia immediately covered her forehead and let out a cry of pain.
"Look at you, if you don't take a good rest and force yourself, you will end up as neurotic as you are now." Fang Li shook his head and said, "If this continues, the body will not be able to hold on first, huh?"
"However, the management of the territory has to be done." Emilia touched her forehead and said with some distress: "Besides, some things have happened in the capital recently, and I am also worried."
"Royal capital?" Fang Li frowned and asked, "Did something happen over there?"
Fang Li's question made Emilia hesitate, as if she didn't know whether she should tell Fang Li.
Seeing this, Fang Li raised his hand, as if to play.
"Yes...it's about the Witch Cult!"
Emilia quickly covered her forehead, not daring to hide any more, and said everything.
"Cursch-sama sent a message, saying that someone near the royal capital has witnessed traces of suspected Witch Cultists' activities."
——— "Witch Cult".
Unexpectedly, I heard this familiar name at this time.
"Witch Cultist..." Fang Li raised his brows and immediately pouted again, and said, "Is it a fish that slipped through the net at the time of "laziness"? "
"I don't think so." Emilia shook her head and said worriedly: "Master Crusch said that the other party is most likely not an ordinary Witch Cultist, but a Sin Archbishop of the same level as "Sloth". "
"Senior Sin?" Fang Li reacted to this.
Seeing that Emilia seems to be very concerned about this matter, Fang Li pondered for a moment and said something.
"Where is the contact from the Duke?"
Hearing Fang Li's words, Emilia was taken aback for a moment, but after realizing it, she quickly found a few letters from the documents on the table and handed them to Fang Li.
Fang Li took it and started flipping it.
Then, Fang Li gradually understood what was going on.
As Emilia said, someone seems to have found the figure of the Sin Archbishop suspected of being the Witch Cult near the capital.
There is not just one Sin Bishop of the Witch Cult, but seven.
These seven archbishops of sin are respectively in charge of a kind of original sin.
----"envy".
——— "Desire".
----"anger".
----"lazy".
——— "Gluttony".
----"arrogant".
———— "Lust".
The seven original sins represent a witch and a priest of sin.
Of course, the Archbishop of Sin only regards the Witch of Envy as his faith, and he rejects the other six witches who were devoured by the Witch of Envy.
However, there is no doubt that the witch factor of original sin is represented in the body of each archbishop of great sin.
But now, Petichius-Romane-Conti, the archbishop in charge of "laziness", has been crusaded, and the archbishop in charge of "arrogance" seems to have not yet appeared.
But even so, there are still five culprits in the Witch Cult, and each of them is the scourge of this world.
Among these scourges, the two major sins of "sloth" and "lust" are particularly famous.
"Laziness" is because the frequency of activities is extremely frequent, and more than half of the activities of the Witch Cult are related to it. He can be seen in almost all kinds of incidents caused by the Witch Cult all over the world. It is obviously "lazy" but this As diligent as he is, his mobility is so amazing that it makes people feel hopeless.
"Greed" is completely different from "laziness". There are very few evil deeds recorded in it, but in terms of threats, it is far superior to "laziness".
Its menace mainly comes from his strength.
The power of the "Greedy" Archbishop of Sin is far superior to that of the "Lazy" Petichius.
It is said that in the south of the world, there is a castle city.
It is known as the strongest city in the Bollachia Empire known for its military power, and it is a very famous border metropolis.
In that city, there are not only thousands of permanent soldiers, but also the heavy city walls surrounding the city, and those soldiers are all the best of the best. The knights of Gnica are comparable, and some excellent knights are even comparable to the knights of the Knights of the Guards.
In addition to the defensive power of the castle city itself, the border guarded by such an army would be difficult to capture even with the entire Dragon Kingdom Lugnica's power?
Moreover, the leader of this army was the general who once rivaled Wilhelm Van Astrea, the husband of the former swordsman known as the "Sword Demon" on the battlefield.
Such an impregnable wall, but suddenly one day, it was captured by a single person by the chief criminal who called himself "Greed".
That's right, being alone.
With only one person's power, he captured a border metropolis of a military power.
"This is really..."
Fang Li thought for a while.
He thought that if he did it, it would not be impossible.
As long as there are no threats like Reinhardt, even this army of thousands of people can rival Sword Demon, and Fang Li can capture it.
But Fang Li's strength has long surpassed that of ordinary people, and even a special saint like Hou Zhishui can defeat it. It is not surprising that he has achieved this level.
But there are actually some people in the Witch Cult who can do this, so it has to be noticed.
Because, as mentioned in Crusch's letter, the identity of the Sin Archbishop suspected to be the Witch Cult found near the capital seems to be this "lust".
Therefore, the capital is now on alert, and even the Sage Association seems to have a sense of crisis, and there is a faint tendency to call the five candidates for the throne to discuss countermeasures together.
"The Witch's High Sin Archbishop... "Greed"..."
Fang Li's eyes flickered slightly.
