Banner of the Evil God

The fat president was teleported away with a wave of his hand, but Felix was still a little unhappy. He frowned for a while and took out a list.

There are more than a dozen names written in a row on the list, which are the big shots who actually rule the four towns in the northwest.

In this list, several de facto rulers of "Dragon Roar Town" and the spokespersons they arranged all checked, as did the army chief of Rye Town, the president of the Adventure Guild and others, but Gold Rush Town Over there, not many people check the box.

She picked up her pen and put a tick in front of the name of the president of the Mining Union of Gold Rush Town.

"Another one has been solved." Putting down the pen and paper, Felix sighed and said, "Your Majesty insists that we use legal means that can be justified. It's really inconvenient!"

The deputy mayor laughed: "But in this case, everyone will feel more at ease."

"Yeah, people who follow the rules are always much more popular than those who don't." Felix nodded, but couldn't help but sigh, "It's just... it's such a waste of time!"

"I think your demands are too high. In just over a year, you have already convinced or controlled so many people. At this rate, it will probably take less than a few years to completely control the four northwest towns. Even if I A mortal like you can't afford it, let alone a great mage like you."

Felix smiled: "You are right, the least important thing to me now is time. I still haven't been able to get rid of the inherent old thinking and am bound by the mortal concept of time - you really are A very talented person, wouldn’t you consider learning magic from me?”

"Please allow me to refuse." The deputy mayor smiled and shook his head, "I just need to do my job well. Learning magic requires too much time and energy. I don't want to spend more than half of my life studying or maybe even my whole life. In terms of ability.”

"Why can't we use it? Magic can do many special things!"

"But without magic, I can still do those things." The deputy mayor said, "Magic can move things, light bonfires, heal injuries, and destroy monsters... But these things, either I can do through other people." Either you can let others do it, I am just an ordinary civil affairs official, there is no need to complete them myself. "

Felix sighed and hung his head in frustration.

Persuasion failed again.

Ever since she discovered that the deputy mayor had good magic qualifications and clear and stable thoughts, she had been trying to persuade him to learn magic with her. But until now, I have tried to persuade him several times, but not even one of them has worked.

The deputy mayor, who always smiles gently, is actually a rather stubborn person. Her ideal in life seems to be to be a good civil affairs officer, and she is not interested in anything other than that.

Felix really didn't understand how the deputy mayor of a small town could have more status than a mage? And she believed that with this subordinate's qualifications and temperament, if he devoted himself to magic research, he wouldn't be able to say that he was a legend, but at least he would have great hope of reaching a high level.

A high-level mage who can speak on an equal footing even when facing powerful nobles is much better than a mere deputy mayor like her?

Moreover, becoming a mage can greatly increase your lifespan!

In this world, ordinary people can only live to be fifty or sixty years old. Those who live to the age of seventy are already called longevity stars, which is admirable. But for mages, even mid-level mages, there are ways to easily extend their lifespan to hundreds of years. Even if a high-level mage does not use some difficult and risky methods, it is not difficult to live to two hundred years just by relying on simple and safe methods. As for the legendary mage... Master Imia Lamperus, who led his students to end the "Era of Wizards" and founded the Secret Tower Federation, and his disciples who entered the legendary realm, did not have even one He died of old age.

For women, shouldn’t it be worth pursuing, even just for youth and longevity?

Because of this important reason, the proportion of women among mages is far more than half.

However, she was at her wits end when she met a woman who was not interested in youth and longevity.

Sighing deeply, Felix took out the documents and information he had just put down and continued to devote himself to the never-ending work.

There is never enough work to do, and this is true for everyone.

But work can always come to an end temporarily, and this is true for everyone.

For example, for Sui Xiong.

"It's finally over!"

Seeing the last batch of believer souls rescued from the Kingdom of the Harvest Goddess heading to the residential area, Sui Xiong took a long breath, wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead with his tentacles, and couldn't help but laugh.

"It's true that the eyes are not afraid of the hands. There are so many souls. I originally thought it would take a long time to purify them, but it didn't take long before they were all finished."

"How are you going to arrange them?" Morani came over and asked curiously, "Don't tell me, you haven't figured it out yet."

Sui Xiong laughed awkwardly and looked around at him.

"Ask them to change their faith." Morani said, "Since I have received your life-saving grace, it is natural to repay them with faith."

"...That's true, but I always feel very embarrassed." Sui Xiong scratched his face with his tentacles and said with a wry smile, "I didn't save them to get any benefits. I just couldn't bear to see them follow. The harvest goddess was buried with her."

"Whether you save them for the sake of gaining benefits is not important at all. What is important is whether they can bring benefits to you!" Morani said seriously, "I know you are a good person, but when good people do good things, they should not only harm themselves to help others, but also let everyone benefit."

"...How can such a good thing happen!"

"Yes, there are often no such good things in the world, so we should make a compromise. At least we should let good people not just give completely, and let their efforts have some rewards, which is at least comforting."

Sui Xiong was silent for a while and said, "This is also difficult."

"Maybe it's difficult, but shouldn't we do this?" Morani advised, "You have done enough for them, and now they should repay you. There should be rewards for giving, and as a god, you should especially uphold this law!"

Sui Xiong nodded and sighed softly.

A few days later, the believers of the goddess of harvest who were rescued received a notice from His Majesty the Void Mask.

"Because my kingdom is short of manpower, I am now recruiting some believers. Those who are interested can come to me for negotiation. The treatment will be better than your previous treatment."

Some stubborn believers disdained this, and some more extreme believers said that this was an insult to their beliefs, but in the end, many believers were still moved.

If they lose the power from the Goddess of Harvest, they will lose their eternal life. In order to survive, what does it matter if they change their beliefs?

After all, Her Majesty the Goddess of Harvest has fallen...
