The witch thought I am a Demon God

The mayor ordered Lord Prol and his followers to be escorted to the prison of [Palvega].

When Lord Prower walked past Ivita, he looked at Ivita hatefully and cursed him: "You will regret what you did today, Viscount Winchester will not let you go. "

Ivetta shrugged nonchalantly.

Viscount Winchester has to face too many enemies, and he is not even ranked among them.

In front of him was the city of Palvega.

Viscount Winchester, if he were a smart man, would know that he should win over himself instead of becoming his enemy.

Because he is not his main enemy.

All the people on Lord Proul's side had surrendered, and the two remaining knights who were fighting Black Wolf and the others had no choice but to surrender when they saw that the situation was over.

However, they received preferential treatment, that is, they could take their own equipment and leave the city directly.

This should be a compromise made by the mayor because he did not want to suffer more casualties due to fighting with them.

In addition, the irony is that the knight Tavel who was assassinated by Ivita and Bernhard actually survived because of this.

Two of his companions took the man away.

Logically speaking, Parvega could have used this person in exchange for ransom, but the problem was that after the mayor discovered that Tavel was seriously injured, he immediately made a decision to return this person to Viscount Winchester.

Because if you want to exchange this person for ransom, you must first spend money to maintain his life.

The mayor is an authentic businessman. He did some calculations in his mind and found that it was not cost-effective, so he immediately gave up the idea.

Ivita and others were arranged by Madam Alice in a relatively luxurious city villa of the Blacksmith Guild.

At this time, they also have to clean up the city hall and investigate those involved in the coup.

After all the complicated things went into the evening, the mayor and Alice held a masquerade ball regardless of everything.

They believe that this way they can pretend that the coup that occurred during the day does not exist, so that the foreign businessmen who come to Palvega will not leave in crisis.

But outside of this dance, it was Parvega's militiamen who shuttled through the doors of the wealthy Parve family, knocking on their doors and arresting families related to the coup.

It is different from the storm in the city outside.

The dance was filled with relaxed and happy emotions, and the confusion of lust and passion made it seem like a foreign land.

Men and women wearing strange masks hooked up with each other and danced a flirtatious and romantic dance.

The musical instrument team, sitting around, played their instruments with great joy.

The band has a lot of varied repertoire, but each one has a very happy tune.

A group of ladies sat aside, enjoying flowers and fruits, while discussing which family's daughter had just grown up and danced gracefully, wondering who would be lucky enough to marry them, or discussing which family's boy had grown up.

They are talking about some parents who are not very nutritious.

But that's life.

Ivita and the old witch, as well as Black Wolf and Griffin, sat in the corner of the ball, eating fruit.

Ivita had no interest in these, and besides, she couldn't dance.

So did the old witch.

Black Wolf and Griffin, on the other hand, saw that Ivita did not enter the dance, so they were naturally embarrassed to cross their lord.

So, he simply sat next to Ivita, and the four of them stayed here together in a daze, eating fruit.

But sometimes, doing nothing is a rare break.

Ivita and the other four people had just asked the doctors in the city to bandage their wounds, and they still had some bandages on their bodies, so it was not convenient for them to attend the dance.

Unfortunately, because of Ivita's identity, the center of this ball is simply Ivita.

This led to the fact that even if Ivita wanted to keep a low profile, people would still come to her.

Mrs. Alice, followed by a group of young girls, walked towards Ivita, "Lord Ivita, we can't let you be alone. Sir, after hearing your deeds, the girls in Palvega all want to be like you. dance partner."

"Can you give me a favor?"

Behind her was a group of shy girls. They were shy and expectant, wanting Ivita to talk to them, but they retreated timidly.

Iveta glanced at them, and the girls were all moved.

But Ivita lacks interest because although the girls here are young, they are not pretty enough.

Overwhelmed by the hospitality, he stood up and was about to find a dance partner, but suddenly another lady came.

They are a group of ladies wearing dresses whose main color is black.

These ladies obviously already have husbands, but they show their charming looks in every gesture.

Mrs. Alice looked at the woman standing at the front and said in shock: "Rosa Lilin?"

Rosalind winked at Ivita, pouted her plump lips painted with lipstick, and said to Lady Alice: "Alice, are you looking for these ignorant little girls to accompany Lady Ivita?"

"This is too negligent."

"They don't even have a good body, and their brains are ignorant."

"Rude behavior only makes people laugh."

As Rosalind spoke, she glanced at Ivita with a vague look.

Iveta was speechless, picked up the cup next to her and took a sip of water.

If he remembered correctly, these women must have husbands.

This is too open.

But this kind of dance is originally a place for everyone to have fun.

Iveta did not have a special habit of finding wives. When she saw the strange looks of a group of dissatisfied women looking at her, she immediately stood up and said to them: "Mrs. Alice, everyone, I'm sorry, I just finished a fight. Fighting consumes too much energy.”

"Now it's more important to take care of your health."

"I'm going to rest."

"Black Wolf, Griffin, let's go."

He turned around and found that the two men were a little reluctant to part with each other, and he immediately understood that these two vigorous men could not pass the test of women.

So, Ivita had to change her tune. "You two can do it yourself."

Ivita left the ball, and only the old witch followed her.

Madam Alice immediately looked at Rosalind with reproachful eyes.

Instead, Rosalind glanced at Alice and the group of girls behind Alice with resentment. Apparently she thought it was them, not herself, who scared Ivita away.

…

Walking out of the public building where the ball was held, the old witch said to Ivita: "You were right to leave there."

"As a single, independent landed noble, you are a hot commodity in the dance."

"Everyone wants to bite you."

Ivita nodded, her body was too small.

Although marriage is also an option, marrying a woman from Palvega is a waste.

"Mrs. Alice brought those girls here. Of course, the reasons are complicated and her utilitarianism is too obvious."

"But I'm only in this city for business."

There was applause from beside her, and Ivita turned around strangely and found a priest wearing white church clothes with a golden deformed [4] pattern on the right chest.

Ivita took a quick glance at the old witch, wondering what the priest's reaction would be when he saw the witch beside him.

Bishop Parvega wisely ignored the witch beside Ivita. "Hello, Your Excellency Ivita, I am the Bishop of the city of Parvega. Thank you for saving the church and the city council of Parvega today."

"Your actions are in line with the ways of the God of all things."

Ivita understood his identity, that's it, but what does the bishop want from me?

Ivita bowed and saluted him, and the other party returned the salute.

"These are all things I should do, not worth mentioning. What can I do for you?"

Bishop Palvega, said: "I have come to bring you a word for a noble man."

He glanced at the old witch, meaning can this person be trusted?

Ivita thought for a while, then nodded, "You said, I am willing to listen carefully to God's guidance."

Bishop Parvega looked at him in astonishment. It was rare for nobles to speak as sweetly as Ivita, and his smile became a little more real. “The church can serve everyone who is willing to listen to God’s teachings.”

“Never let down believers, that’s the promise of our church.”

"That promise never expires."

"That noble man, let me tell you - [The Cross Island in the south is very uneasy recently. If you go there, you should be able to get a lot of land and titles]."

Iveta was stunned, because it was really unexpected for a bishop to say such things to him.

He hesitated for a moment and asked him, "Can I ask the identity of that noble man?"

The Bishop of Parvega hesitated: "He is the Cardinal Archbishop General of the Kingdom of Ferrara - Lord Antioch."

The old witch behind Ivita suddenly changed her expression when she heard this, and her shoulders even trembled with fear.

Her high-pitched voice changed. "He is also in this city?"

The bishop did not answer her words. Even if he could ignore the existence of the witch for Ivita, he would not be able to talk to her in a pleasant manner.

To some extent, the church has double standards.

And witches are not wizards after all. Wizards don't matter, but witches cannot be recognized as existing according to the church's teachings.

In the past two hundred years, the church has changed from its previous harsh attitude towards witches to an attitude of, "If I don't see you, it means I don't know you exist."

Two hundred years ago, the church would have pursued witches relentlessly.

Ivita asked the old witch curiously. "Who is Antiochus?"

The old witch looked fearfully at the place where the ball was, lest Antiochus was among them. "The Marquis of Ferrara is the most loyal dog of the Church and has killed countless enemies of the Church..."

"Ahem..." The bishop of Parvega coughed.

Ivita immediately pretended to be angry and said to the old witch: "Why are you talking? There is no politeness at all. You should read more books so that you don't speak rudely."

The old witch was also frightened for a while, she was used to speaking without restraint. "My lord is right."

"Antioch is said to have a fifth level of professional class."

"He is a powerful red archbishop, a famous priest general."

"You know, because priests focus on the cultivation of spiritual activities, they are not good at managing territories and fighting wars."

"But that Antiochus was extraordinary. He launched at least more than three hundred wars in his life."

“He is warlike and good at fighting, and he is invincible.”

"As long as the church allows him to lead the church's army, there will be no fortress that cannot be conquered."

"When the Kingdom of Montenegro was still a principality, a very fat noble once provoked a witch. She thought the witch was a beggar, so she casually insulted her. As a result, the witch cursed the fat noble to become thin until he died."

"That nobleman was really losing weight every day no matter how he ate. At first he thought it was a good thing, but soon he realized something was wrong."

"In the end, he became a skinny man and starved to death."

"But the great witch who did this also angered the church."

"Because that nobleman has close ties with the church."

"It was rare for the church to directly send troops to hunt down the big witch. The person who led the team at that time was Antioch."

"The great witch hid in her wizard's tower, and was eventually burned alive by Antiochus. It is said that Antiochus only used a group of mortal cavalry at the time. No one knows how he did it."

The old witch thought for a while and then said to Ivita: "But because of this, because the big witch is the apprentice of the black witch, the black witch and the church have never dealt with each other."

Ivita suddenly remembered that the eldest princess had said that the black witch was the most powerful dragon witch.

However, I can’t say this now.

If you think about it carefully, it seems that with your status, you cannot pass the political review of the church.

Seeing that Ivita had learned about Antioch, the bishop smiled at Ivita and said, "What Lord Antioch said is definitely correct."

"He must have his own motives for telling you this."

"But I heard that you have become an honorary citizen of Palvega, so please don't forget to exercise your rights as a citizen."

The bishop whispered to Ivita, "As long as you are a citizen, you have the right to join the guild of Palvega. I heard that you entered this city to do business with Lady Alice, then if you can join the blacksmith's guild Yes, by becoming a trader of the guild, you have the right to decide the pricing of your goods by the guild."

"Of course this is just a small trick, and your goods also need to be of excellent quality."

"Besides, you'd better keep..."

The bishop hesitated, finding euphemistic words. "You'd better stay pure."

"Marrying with a wealthy lady from Palvega is not the best choice. You are still too young now. If you improve in the future, the Monferrato family of the Grand Earl of Monferrato will definitely find you for marriage. If you can Marriage with the ruling family of the Grand Earl of Monferrato, a tributary of the Valedo Principality, will be of great benefit to your career."

The bishop explained to Ivita. "On the surface, it appears that the Valedo Principality on the coast of the mountains south of Ambrose is a vassal of the Grand Earl of Monferrato. However, in fact, the Monferrato family used marriage to become the master of the Valedo Principality. , controls the laws there.”

"That family is connected to many ancient and noble bloodlines. It will be of great benefit to you to have a wife from that family, even if it is a side branch."

Ivita was a little ashamed. Of course he knew that the other party was giving him some life advice.

It should be because I left a good impression on him.
