The Devil Priest and the Brave Beautiful Girl

Passing through a huge stone gate, the graceful outline of Sophia Palace was unreservedly displayed in front of the heroic king Yu Ke and Ulysses. Since the entire palace is surrounded by a huge magic circle, the hustle and bustle of the city is completely isolated. All you can feel here is tranquility, solemnity, and ancient mystery.

In front of the palace is a huge circular square. The flat ground of the square is entirely made of neatly cut white marble. Around the square, twelve huge round stone pillars stand. All stone pillars are designed by skilled craftsmen, and the distance between each pillar is exactly the same. And beside each stone pillar, there is a giant knight statue. These ancient statues have different expressions, and their lifelike expressions seem to be quietly telling unknown stories.

A huge sword-shaped stone stele stands proudly in the center of the square. From the shape of it, it looks like a huge sword inserted into the earth. For some reason, Ulysses felt that the shape of the sword was a bit familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

In front of the square, there is a step wide enough for a whole group of heavy cavalry to charge, and the long bluestone steps extend all the way to the gate of the palace. On both sides of each step of the stairs, different statues of knights are placed. Some of these statues stand upright with swords, some swing with axes, and others lean over and sprint with horses. Compared with the twelve huge statues in the square, these statues are more realistic. If the twelve statues feel like legendary heroes, these knights are real warriors.

Everyone who steps on these bluestone steps in front of the palace, after going through these hundreds of steps, will deeply feel the knight tradition deeply immersed in the country of Sophia. This is a country that respects knights, and it is also a country rich in great knights. This country, built on the ruins of an ancient country, pays the utmost respect to those knights who have always fought at the forefront in the Necropolis.

Because it is already dusk, the number of knights in the palace has decreased a lot compared to the daytime, but every knight bowed his head in salute when he saw the heroic king Yuke wearing gold armor. Well, she also seems to be a knight. (It doesn’t seem to be big)

"Yuke, what kind of knight are you?" Ulysses asked with some curiosity when he noticed that what the knights could do to the Heroic King Yu was a knight's gift.

"It's still a question. This king is of course a knight of gold. In terms of rank, he is considered the highest-ranking knight in this country, and Leilu is the same." The heroic Wang Yu said casually. This knight status actually doesn't make much sense to her, probably as long as she is a 7th-level strong in Sophia, she can seal one, and even the wizard can get it.

With the leadership of the heroic king Yuke, no one came to ask Ulysses. So they quickly passed through the square in front of the palace and entered the palace.

Under the leadership of the heroic king Yu Ke, Ulysses came to a huge palace. This hall is in a typical retro style. Twelve thick white stone pillars support the main weight of the entire building. The reliefs on it are exactly the same as the knight statues on the outside square. Spotless white marble walls stretched unscrupulously from the left and right, and on the walls hung hand after hand with decorative weapons. Although they don't seem to be opened, judging from the complicated patterns on their blades and the magical atmosphere, it seems that they are not just mere decorations.

"This is the position of Sophia's king, are you interested? Ulysses." The heroic king Yu Ke pointed at the position in the center of the hall. There, is the throne carved from marble, and it is also the location that countless people dream of.

"Is that the throne? What does that round table do?" Ulysses noticed a huge round table near the throne. Judging from the size of the table, it should be possible for more than a dozen people to sit down for a meeting. This round table is more interesting to him than the throne that represents kingship.

"Um, that is something used to hold a round table meeting." The Heroic Spirit Wang Yuke shrugged his shoulders and replied naturally.

"Roundtable?" Ulysses heard the word for the first time.

"It's the props used by all the seventh-level powerhouses in Sophia when meeting with the king. Because the king itself is not more noble than the seventh-level powerhouse, so the seventh-level powerhouse sits with the king during the meeting. This seems to be the previous one. A tradition from a ruined country."

"Is that meeting important?" Ulysses asked curiously.

"This is a meeting that can determine the fate of the entire country. This generation of King Sofia has only convened once. However, it was not that king, but Princess Victoria, who held it on his behalf. It was convened to solve Sofia, who was almost collapsed at that time. This King and Leilu were also added at that time." The Heroic Spirit King Yu explained it carefully.

"Do you decide the fate of the country..." For some reason, Ulysses felt a heartbeat when he saw the round table. Compared with the throne, this round table is extremely simple, and it seems to have an extraordinary charm. What seems to be vaguely felt from above, what is it?

"That's right. Even the king can't oppose the things decided on this round table. Go away, Princess Victoria should already be waiting for you." After speaking, the heroic king Yu forced Ulysses away again. .

Although being pulled by the heroic king Yu Ke, Ulysses felt shocked by the grandeur and mystery of the Palace of Sophia. Whether it is an ordinary column, a sculpture on the dome of the wall, or the utensils displayed on the side of the corridor, they are all so simple and perfect, simple but with gorgeousness. Every building seems to have its own soul, which makes people heart-wrenching.

"When you arrive, the princess will wait for you in that room. This king will not be with you for the time being." He took Ulysses to the door of a small room. The heroic king Yu walked away without looking back, which was tantamount to throwing him directly into this huge palace.

Will you not get lost when you go back next time? After looking helplessly at Shi's road, Ulysses knocked on the door of the room after confirming that it was absolutely impossible for him to figure out the maze-like road on his own.

"Hello, this is Ulysses."

"Is it finally here? Come in." A female voice came from the room.

"Crack." The door of the room was gently pushed open, Ulysses finally saw the Princess Victoria who had been taking care of Farrie and was guarded by Lei Lu and the heroic king Yu Ke.

It is completely different from what I imagined. It is not the amiable image that I thought at first, nor the shrewd and capable image that I judged not long ago. The woman lying slanting in the corner of the sofa is a very beautiful woman, with a pair of blue eyes as clear as Fali on her beautiful Guazi face. The soft blond hair gently hung from her shoulders and fell onto the sofa. The casual and natural posture brought a lazy atmosphere to this room.

Looking out to the surroundings, this is a very spacious bedroom. A light golden magic lamp hangs on the beautiful ceiling. On the opposite floor are carpets woven from fine textiles and some low furniture specially used in the bedrooms. The only tall thing is the big closet that occupies an entire wall. Calculating from the volume, there should be quite a few pieces of clothing inside. But that's all. Compared with the gleaming room of Heroic King Yuke, this room couldn't be more simple.

"You are Ulysses, younger than I thought." Victoria leaned lazily on the sofa and gently shook the down fan in her hand. It looks like a golden cat that hasn't woken up much, noble and cute.

"The princess is much younger than I thought." Before coming, Ulysses thought that the princess should be a shrewd and capable middle-aged woman. It seemed that the princess was closer to Fali's sister than her aunt.

"Hehe. I can talk, no wonder Fali is fascinated. That child, for taking care of you a lot, I want to thank you. If it weren't for you, she would probably no longer be in this world." No matter what kind of woman it is. , You seem to be happy if you are praised for being young.

"You too..." Ulysses said embarrassedly, but was interrupted by Princess Victoria after only one word.

"You don't need to be so restrained, there is no need to be nervous, and there is no need to use honorifics, just call me Victoria."

"That won't work, you are the princess!" The need to be polite to the royal family is one of the basics of the education Ulysses received. It's the same as the respect for the great priest of Anad, this is a matter of course.

"Really, then how can you accept Farrie so casually, isn't she also the Princess Sophia you should respect?"

"But, Farrie and I have been together for a long time. And, at first, I didn't know that she was Sofia's princess..."

"The conclusion is that the intimacy between us is not enough? It's really a pity."

"No, it's not like that."

"Then, for the sake of the future, let's increase the intimacy between us! A date with me, this is the order of the Princess of Sophia!"
