From Prisoner to Si Chen

"Dean Battalia, you're looking for me?"

In a Notre Dame church area, Aurora, wearing a nun's uniform, slowly walked to the chapel and knelt down to an old nun.

The old nun turned around and looked at the pretty woman with a kind smile, saying:

"Aurora, you are now a long-lived person, with good strength and experience in leading a team... The church originally considered promoting you to be a district-level bishop, but because you are too young and your qualifications are not enough, it is temporarily shelved."

"It just so happens that there is an opportunity to accumulate qualifications here. I wonder if you are interested?"

"Hmm?" Aurora was very surprised, and hurriedly said: "Dean, what's the matter?"

"The chairman of the empire personally called the pope and asked you to go to the committee for a six-month internship. The top leaders were very surprised about this, but they also wanted to ask your opinion."

Dean Battalia explained patiently.

As she spoke, she added in a low voice:

"Aurora, this is a rare opportunity, you should seize it... The new chairman of the empire, Mr. 'Red Sage' Gillan Ilos, is the strongest person in the world today. If you can be valued by him, your future will be limitless."

"After this internship, your experience of serving under the chairman is also an amazing qualification. The church will also look at you with new eyes in the future."

"Huh?!"

Aurora was surprised.

Mr. Gillan Ilos specifically asked her to join the mysterious investigation committee?

Why didn't the other party tell her in advance in her dream?

Although puzzled, she still nodded and agreed:

"Dean Batalia, I will follow the arrangement of the church and am willing to go to the capital to join the investigation committee for internship."

"Very good." The dean was very satisfied and smiled: "In that case, Aurora, you should get ready and set off tomorrow."

"Yes, dean."

Aurora bowed and left immediately.

After she left, the dean stood alone in the chapel, looking thoughtful.

In fact, the church leaders have speculated on the identity of the "Red Sage" more than once.

When the demonic wave occurred in Coburn City before, the angel "Father Scorched" conveyed the will of the Virgin Mary to the Pope in his dream and ordered the church to send people to assist Gillan Ilos.

Therefore, the church leaders once believed that the "Red Sage" might be the Virgin Mary's favor.

This time, Mr. Gillan specifically asked Aurora to intern in the committee, which seemed to have a hidden meaning... The bishops speculated that it was probably because Aurora led the team to support last time that she showed her face in front of Gillan, was appreciated, and planned to be further trained.

Of course, there is another possibility.

That is, Chairman Gillan Ilos may have taken a fancy to Aurora Lowry.

"If that is true..."

Dean Batalia murmured, showing embarrassment.

As a church nun, Aurora needs to serve the Virgin Mary for life and cannot get married.

But if the target is the "Red Sage", this rule can be changed...

Thinking of this, Battalia turned around and confessed to the statue of the Virgin Mary.

But she did not notice that the smile on the face of the statue of the Virgin Mary gradually faded.

…

…

The next day.

Aurora took off her red nun robe and church ornaments. Instead, she put on a youthful and beautiful dress, a white wreath straw hat, and carried a suitcase and boarded the train.

In the afternoon.

She arrived at the capital Musciti smoothly, and then took a taxi at the exit of the train station and went straight to the Triumph Building in the central area.

After arriving at the destination, Aurora showed her clergy certificate at the entrance of the building and stated that she was invited by the chairman to come for internship.

The security guards guarding the building saw this and did not stop her. They saluted respectfully and let her in.

This was not Aurora's first time here, so she had an impression of the environment. She went straight to the 70th floor of the building and came to the committee hall.

As soon as she got out of the elevator, she saw four familiar figures.

"Mr. Gillan! And Mr. Weiner, Mr. Franco and Miss Alevia!"

Aurora was delighted and greeted them quickly.

The four people who were originally sitting in the hall chatting and waiting stood up.

Alevia took the lead and gave Aurora a big hug.

"Long time no see, Aurora, you are getting more beautiful."

Baiou teased with a smile.

Aurora was a little shy and said embarrassedly:

"Thank you for the compliment, Miss Alevia is also more mature and charming."

"What about me?" Weiner laughed and walked over with several men, jokingly saying: "Miss Aurora, don't be partial, praise me too."

However, Weiner's hair has not grown out yet. Although it is not as shiny as before, there is only a light layer of fluff on his head.

Aurora looked at him and was stunned for a moment.

"Mr. Weiner... well, you are stronger than before and look very energetic."

"Ah?" Weiner pretended to be disappointed. "Isn't he more handsome than before?"

"Wait until your hair grows out."

Franco laughed and teased.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh.

At this time, Aurora noticed that except for Mr. Gillan, the other three friends were wearing tailor-made gray-black uniforms, with extremely high-standard identity marks and badges on their shoulders and chests.

She was immediately surprised:

"Could it be that everyone has joined the mysterious investigation committee?"

"That's right." Alevia smiled. "We are all the leaders of the special operations team of the committee now. This matter was pushed by Gillan, so that we can gather together again in reality."

"No wonder..." Aurora suddenly realized and then showed a look of surprise. "This is great! We can finally be together again!"

She turned her head and looked at the purple-eyed young man with short golden red hair, a suit and a striped windbreaker, and said:

"Thank you, Mr. Gillan."

"No need to thank me." Gillan smiled. "It's just that the time has come."

"In the past, we were still very weak and had to rely on our own forces to grow, but now it's different... Everyone has a good ability, I think it's time to get the team together again."

Everyone looked at each other with a smile on their faces.

They have actually been waiting for this day for a long time.

"For a long time in the future, everyone will work in the committee... There are many opportunities here, and it can also allow you to obtain stable resources for cultivation and climb to a higher level as soon as possible."

Gillan looked at them and said.

"At the same time, with your help, my work will be easier."

"Yes!" Aurora nodded heavily.

But she suddenly remembered something and hesitated:

"However, Mr. Gillan, I only joined the committee in the name of an intern, and I may have to return to the Holy Mother Church in half a year."

"It's okay, this is just a name to transfer you here."

Gillan blinked at her.

"As for whether to let you go back or not, the Holy Mother Church has no say."

"Ah?" Aurora was stunned.

She secretly thought that Mr. Gillan was cunning, but she was happy in her heart.

Gillan added:

"Of course, it all depends on your mood, Aurora. If you want to go back to the church one day, you can go back at any time. If you want to come to the committee, I can tell your Pope again."

"This... is it so casual?"

Aurora was very surprised. Alevia chuckled twice and said jokingly:

"Our Chairman Gillan is now the most powerful person in the Bremen Empire. The Church of Our Lady has to act according to his mood. There is nothing to be surprised about, Aurora."

"Mr. Gillan, you are getting more and more powerful."

Aurora couldn't help but show admiration on her face and praised sincerely.

In her mind, the top leaders of the Church of Our Lady, including the Bishops and the Pope, are all big figures on the mysterious side, but she didn't expect that they had to be cautious when facing Mr. Gillan.

Aurora, who originally admired Gillan, couldn't help but bloom in her heart, and her joy was beyond words.

"It's almost dinner time now, why don't we go out for a meal together, I'll treat you."

Gillan turned his head and looked at the wall clock on the hall wall. It was already past four o'clock in the afternoon, and the sky outside was already dim, so he couldn't help but suggest.

Alevia, Aurora and others would certainly not refuse, and nodded in agreement.

…

…

With Aurora joining, the members of the "Hand of Dawn" completely settled in the mysterious investigation committee and became the official law enforcers of the Bremen Empire.

The reason why Gillan did this was actually very simple, that is, to use his power to give them a platform for promotion, so that they can display their fists and obtain resources.

After all, although he himself has stood at the top of the world, Alevia and others are still only at the 4th level.

The resources needed for cultivation will only increase.

If you have the support of the empire, it will be much easier.

In this way, Werner, Franco, Alevia and Aurora all became the leaders of a special operations team, each leading an elite team.

They did not participate in the work of the "gravedigger", but only obeyed the orders of Gillan, the chairman, and were responsible for assisting some high-risk mysterious events.

That night.

Gillan rested in the apartment at No. 9 Morales Street.

He lay on the bed in the master bedroom on the second floor and closed his eyes to fall asleep.

After entering his own spiritual kingdom, Lordran, Gillan took out the "letter comb" directly, activated it, and was immediately pulled into the Black Castle.

Visiting the Black Castle again, Gillan carried two paper bags with some snacks prepared in advance.

The quiet girl with long black hair was still sitting in a wheelchair, waiting quietly on the platform at the top of the stairs.

After seeing Gillan, Miss Tolina smiled and called out crisply:

"Mr. Gillan, welcome."

"I brought you some more worldly snacks."

Gillan strode forward and raised her hand to signal.

Seeing this, Tolina's beautiful eyes moved and her mouth smiled.

"Thank you, sir."

"You're welcome."

Gillan handed the paper bag to the girl's arms, pushed the wheelchair, and walked all the way to the depths of the garden.

Tolina felt the breath of the young man behind her, and her face was flushed.

After Gillan sat down at the stone table, Tolina skillfully began to make tea.

The two began to chat with snacks.

"Sir, I heard Butler Jorah talk about you... well, some things that happened in the mortal world."

Tolina poured a cup of flower tea for Jilan and smiled.

"Jora went to the God's Land, and I heard that the story of you defeating five apostles Biwo in a one-on-five battle has spread there... Even Biwo, the 'blind general', was injured in the fight with you."

"Hmm?" Jilan raised his eyebrows. "Has it spread all over the God's Land..."

"Yeah." Tolina nodded, with admiration in her black eyes. "Sir, you are getting better and better. I'm afraid no one in the world can be your opponent."

"It's just a trick."

Gilan shook his head.

"If we fight head-on, I can't beat Si Chen by much."

"That's also amazing." Tolina took a bite of the chocolate ball, her black eyes flashing with joy, as if she liked it. Then she said, "From ancient times to the present, no one can do it like you..."

"This is all thanks to Miss Tolina."

Gilan saw that the girl liked to eat chocolate, so he personally peeled off the gold foil of a chocolate ball and handed it to Tolina.

The girl was startled at first, then she blushed and leaned forward, opened her mouth and bit off the chocolate.

The two of them were very tacit.

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to advance to level 6. For this, you paid a heavy price, which made your injuries even more serious."

Gilan looked at the girl and said in a deep voice.

Tolina shook her head.

"It's okay, sir. Over the years, I've gotten used to the pain."

As she spoke, she quietly raised her eyelids and whispered:

"It's just... after meeting you, I'm more afraid of the dark and the cold."

Hearing this, Gilan paused while peeling the chocolate ball.

The girl's words were an indirect confession.

Gilan put down the snack, stood up silently, walked to the girl, and hugged her by the waist amid her exclamation.

Then, he sat back on the stone bench.

Tolina buried her head in his arms, and her originally sickly pale face was red and hot.

"Thank you, sir, I'm much warmer."

"Do you want more chocolate?"

"Yeah!"

The girl snorted from her nose.

Jilan put one hand around the girl's waist, peeled a chocolate ball with the other hand, and then fed it to her mouth.

"When do you plan to ascend, sir?"

After a while, Tolina looked up and asked.

"If you need it, you can go through the 'Virgin Gate' in August. I will tell Butler Jorah to let you pass smoothly... Of course, I can also crown you in the future, but you will become my apostle, will you mind?"

"I don't mind, Tolina."

Jilan smiled and stuffed a chocolate ball into the girl's mouth. After Tolina bit it, her little face bulged like a cute hamster.

"But, I'm not in a hurry to ascend... and I will most likely choose the path of February in the future."

"But the three artistic officials have a deadly feud with the 'director', and they will not let you pass the 'black and white gate' easily."

"Don't worry, I have a way."

Jilan comforted.

Tolina nodded and smiled and hummed.

"I believe you, sir."

After saying that, she stood up, put her arms around Jilan's neck, raised her chin, and took the initiative to peck Jilan's lips.

Uncharacteristically, she said in a crisp voice:

"Sir, isn't it sweet?"
