The warden who guards the witches

The three people in the distance, Precia and Dai Li, exchanged glances - the direction in which Sister Nevius escaped just now was the direction of the abandoned mine, which connected the route to the outside of the autonomous prefecture, and Lamia and the others were now It seems to be there.

Veronica also heard the conversation clearly. She didn't quite understand part of the meaning of the conversation, but one thing she could still tell was that Aiden was in control of the confrontation.

She relaxed a little and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your mother?" Hearing the priest's confession, Aiden was stunned for a moment, and then realized something, "Could it be... the queen of the old Lesai Kingdom?"

The priest's goat-like face twitched violently several times, and finally he nodded with difficulty: "Yes."

Aiden's guess was confirmed. The queen of the old Lesai Kingdom who was assassinated by the unknown witch did not really die. Instead, her power has been passed down by her heirs through "inheritance" until now. It was just that in his imagination at the time, the person who inherited the queen's will was It's Father Valles.

"So that's it..." Aiden stared at Father Barres for a while, "You seem to have had a hard time talking about it. Betrayal of that mother is a heavy psychological burden for you? Is it because of the influence of power?"

He could see from the priest's expression and tone that the confession was very difficult, and he seemed to be engaged in a fierce psychological battle between heaven and man at all times.

"It's because of power..." Father Valles replied, "The power held by the mother can affect the will of her children. The children who are directly split will become puppets that can be manipulated by her. Children who are directly born from the blood of others will not She has an independent will...but she will also be influenced by her, and she will not allow me to do anything that is not good for her."

"But you can still tell her information."

"I am a special case." Father Bales let out a deep breath, "because my bloodline is extremely impure."

"Synthetic beast?" Aiden looked at the priest's body that looked like a spliced ​​creature.

"Yes, this was an experiment of hers. She wanted to obtain a bloodline as powerful as the Dragonborn, but could not find the chance. So when she was pregnant, she drank the blood of monsters and demons, and used her power to combine these bloodlines with the fetus. The final result of the fusion of my children was that I became neither human nor ghost. "

Father Barrez grasped the horns on his head with his shackled hands, and Aiden could hear the resentment in his voice.

"But to a certain extent, I was saved by this appearance." The priest continued, "It is said that I was half-human and half-animal when I was born. She was full of disgust at my appearance, so she did not save me. Become the heir."

Aiden recalled the priest's contradictory attitude of retreating from the battle to save his life, but not daring to evacuate directly. It seemed that it was Sister Nevius who ordered him to stay and break up the rear.

"So she finally chose your daughter as the heir?" Aiden asked.

"Ah, to save trouble and to cover up others' eyes. Before Nevi, she had chosen another daughter she gave birth to, which was my sister, but that daughter was killed by her when she tried to escape. In the end, she chose to let me I couldn't resist her by giving birth to a daughter who had washed away the blood of monsters." The priest lowered his eyes, "She wanted me to step up to the stage and become the leader of the cult, and she also gave me her divinity and power. Playing Nevi, even in the cult, our relationship is still that of father and daughter.”

Aiden thought to himself that it was no wonder that Chichimora didn't find out the problem. Father Bales and Sister Nevius were indeed father and daughter in their public identities, and they always played this role both on stage and behind the scenes. On the surface they are father and daughter, but in fact they are mother and son.

Sister Nevius communicates with the priest in the form of "suggestions", and the priest will "adopt" her opinions every time and become the leader of the order according to her wishes, so that Sister Naver can serve as the queen behind the order. Although those who are targeting the priest's head will also target her as the "heir", the risk will still be reduced a lot. This is a very typical insurance method.

For the enemy, if they are not fully prepared and are caught off guard against a powerful saint, and if they do not have the ability to get close to him, they will most likely die ugly.

So... the direction Sister Naiyu left seemed to be over the mine.

If his previous guess was correct, then Lamia and Kikimora should be dealing with groups of synthetic beasts in the mine right now, and they would probably run into Sister Neve.

What's more, according to the planned plan, Lamia's target was originally Sister Nai.

Those big witches wanted to trick him into dragging down the enemy's main force, but they missed it themselves, but ended up plunging into the pit set up by the religious order...

Is this... a good reincarnation?

How could such a good thing happen!

Aiden suddenly felt like laughing.

But reason told him that this was not entirely something to be happy about. Sister Nai was the saint with the power of "reproduction", which meant that the main combat power of the cult was still good, and there must be another successor. .

After thinking for a while, he said to the priest: "I can let you go, but you must agree to a few conditions."

The Fengran Mother Goddess Cult has offended both black and white, and has also determined that he is related to the Feitian Noodle Cult. From Aiden's point of view, this sect has to disappear.

"Say." The priest responded immediately.

"First, give me all the divinity in you." Aiden pointed back and forth to the priest and himself.

"Divinity... it's okay to give it to you." Father Valles did not hesitate on this matter, because he knew that it was meaningless to oppose, and if he refused, the other party would probably think of killing him to obtain divinity from the remains.

Aiden nodded, and then made a second request: "Second, tell me who is your mother's real heir."

"Are you going to kill my mother?" Father Valles asked.

"If, if necessary." Aiden answered bluntly, and then asked about the other party's position, "Why, you plan to protect her?"

"... No, I hope she can die." After a moment of silence, Father Valles replied, "In that case, I might be free."

Aiden raised his eyebrows, but he was not too surprised. The words between the lines of Father Valles's confession just now had already revealed this taste. It seemed that since he was born with the blood of a monster, he had resentment towards his mother, and Her Majesty the Queen, who had always used her offspring as a prop to inherit her will, did not seem to give him even a trace of affection, but only regarded him as a tool to manage the cult.

Just as Aiden himself said when Veronica felt sad about those nuns: People can't choose their parents.

Maybe... I can use it. Aiden thought.
