Chapter 20

The King looked at the Holy Pope who had come to his side, and his eyes flashed with anger.

Without his permission, the Holy Pope had come and entered his palace.

However, he did not show it. He knew that the Holy Pope had come this time to show off his strength.

It had to be said that the Holy Pope’s strength was at the top, even surpassing the Demon King. He was a powerful existence with the authority of a demigod.

“Your Holiness the Pope has come at the right time. I wonder what Your Holiness the Pope thinks about the revival of the Demon King?”

The Holy Pope smiled, “Before I came here, I went to the prison and carefully observed the remnants of mana there. Fortunately, I found many traces of dark magic corrosion. That black-haired Chen Deng who escaped must be the Demon King.”

“After killing the Demon King, the other party must have accidentally come into contact with some of the Demon King’s items, or perhaps the Demon King’s soul and will. In addition to being betrayed, the other party must have fused with the Demon King’s will out of shame and anger.”

“The Demon King has the power of a Demigod, and it is extremely difficult to destroy him. This time, it will be even harder to capture him.”

“But I guess he should be hiding in Rose City.”

Suddenly, he changed the topic and looked at the prince beside him, “This is Prince Charles, right? It’s been a long time since we last met. You were still so old back then, but you’re already an adult now.”

He gestured at half of his body, and his words were somewhat impudent.

Prince Charles bowed slightly, “Greetings, Your Holiness. I haven’t been to the Holy Church for a long time. If I have time, I will definitely visit Your Holiness.”

The Holy Pope frowned slightly and looked at Prince Charles carefully, “Strange, could it be that it wasn’t you?”

The King and the Prince looked at him strangely, not knowing what he was talking about.

The Pope’s scepter gently stamped on the ground, and a holy light spread out in all directions. At this moment, Prince Charles and the King had goosebumps all over their bodies.

They looked at the throne behind them in horror. A man dressed in armor was sitting there, staring at the three of them.

He seemed to have been there for a long time, but also seemed to have just appeared.

“As expected of His Holiness the Pope. Allow me to introduce myself. I am the commander of the Dark Guards of the Demon King Army, the Shadow Monster Beard.”

“This time, I’m just giving everyone a warning. Don’t affect my King’s recovery. Otherwise, I don’t mind washing the Imperial City with blood.”

He pushed the armor on his head and stood up, “What a headache! It’s really too difficult to deal with a playful Demon King.”

The Holy Pope laughed, “You are very arrogant! Do you think you are stronger than the Demon King?”

“The Shadow Power you possess is like a fluorescent light compared to the bright moon.”

The Shadow Monster Beard shook his head, “Please don’t misunderstand, Your Holiness. I have no intention of challenging you.”

“What I mean is very simple. As long as His Holiness the Pope, the King, and the Prince don’t leave the capital, I won’t make a move. You don’t want the entire capital to be covered in corpses, right? There are many nobles, marquises, and princes here.”

“I forgot to tell you, the one before you is actually just a shadow clone of mine. I purposely lured you here to let His Holiness discover me.”

Whether it was His Majesty the King, Prince Charles, or the Holy Pope, they all looked at him in surprise.

He didn’t expect that this was actually a clone, just like the real one.

At this moment, the three of them were more or less afraid of taking action. After all, if what this person said was true, if they did not handle it well, the entire capital might fall.

The Holy Pope said coldly, “If I can get rid of a demon like you, even if I have to sacrifice these people in the capital, it will be worth it.”

The Shadow Monster Beard stood up, “I believe you wouldn’t dare. You just have to stay in this city quietly for a year, and I’ll leave.”

“I believe that even if you can find my true body, it won’t necessarily take a year.”

“For the safety of both parties, I believe you will agree, right?”

Beard stood up and swaggered towards the palace gates.

The armor on his body gradually faded and then slowly dissipated in the air.

The three of them were surprised. The Holy Pope’s expression became much more serious, “This is Shadow Escape. The other party might really have more than one clone.”

“Your Majesty, it’s time to investigate the entire capital.”

Even he wasn’t sure if the other party was telling the truth.



Outside the imperial city, a shadow was fleeing rapidly.

“D*mn, I was scared to death. I didn’t think that the Pope would be there. Fortunately, I’m well prepared. ”

“I just don’t know how long we can delay them. Your Majesty, you have to recover quickly! Otherwise, with the Holy Pope’s temper, he’ll turn the entire Norland Continent upside down and never let you go.”

Beard had appeared here to find traces of the black-haired Chen Deng.

However, during his investigation, he discovered something interesting.

It turned out that the entire kingdom wasn’t as united as an iron bucket. The Castellans of the various cities were secretly fighting against the king.

The Holy Church was also fighting for the power of the kingdom, trying to control the entire kingdom.

Even the King and Prince Charles were not simple. Even the death of the Demon King had traces of these people.

Beard wasn’t sure what role they played in this.

It was possible that the Holy Pope had found traces of them during the investigation, which was why he had come personally.

Fortunately, he was a relatively steady person and never exposed his true body. Otherwise, he would be in trouble.

The entire capital was relaxed on the outside but tense on the inside. They quickly began to investigate.

In the capital, even a brick had to be cut open to be searched.

A huge investigation was underway.

At this time, the Holy Church was not idle either.

After discovering that there was something wrong with the Holy Priest Bishop Dennis, the entire Holy Church began to investigate themselves. No accidents were allowed to happen.

At the same time, a large number of Cardinals and Arch-Cardinals gathered in Rose City.

Although the Holy Pope was temporarily stalled, he still had a chance to deal with the Demon King, who had lost his demigod power, without the Pope personally coming out.

Rose City, Holy Church.

Cardinal Zelenthal looked at the people who walked in expressionlessly.

“Hong City, Cardinal Salar.”

“Cardinal Elfa.”

“New Delhi…”

“Reporting…”

“Greetings to the Red-robed Archbishop, Lord Zelenthal.”

Zelenthal waved his hand, “Although the Demon King’s Army has been defeated, the Demon King has been killed, and the power of the demigods has fallen, the Demon King is a centipede. He is planning to return again. This time, our goal is to keep him in Rose City.”
