Chapter 29 Just a book


Chapter 29: Just a Book
The Demon Kingdom of Avarus is one of the very few countries where no religion has entered.

This is mainly because the royal family believes that all demons should have only one god, and that is the Demon King God.

All other gods are false gods and heretics and should not be believed in.

However, the Demon King God has never performed miracles before, and even his existence is only a legend. Therefore, the royal family of the Demon Kingdom of Avarus issued an order to ban all belief in gods.

Logically speaking, Count Leon was right. Princess Viola was openly defying the national policy by doing this.

But judging from the actual situation, there is a question mark as to whether the Demon Kingdom of Avarus still exists, let alone what national policy it is.

Earl Leon jumped out at this time, wanting to poke Viola in a gentle way.

The subtext is probably that if you want to preach, you must first change the national policy, and before changing the national policy, you must first get back the lost land.

So go away quickly and don't come back.

Viola grew up in the palace and was very familiar with the intrigues and rhetoric of nobles. However, she clearly understood what Count Leon meant, but she deliberately pretended to be confused and said:

"Count Leon, as a member of the royal family, I can tell you responsibly that our country does prohibit the spread of all religious beliefs, except for the belief in the Demon King and God King."

"but……"

Count Leon pointed at the people behind him: "It's too dangerous for you to gather so many untouchables. I know very well that these untouchables can easily cause trouble once they gather together. If something happens to you, I can't explain it." "

It seems to be concern, but in fact it means that my family has ruled here for generations, and I know best the virtues of the common people here. You, a foreign princess, don't do anything wrong.

Viola still pretended to be confused:
"Count Leon, you should believe in them more and believe in the power of the people. After all, the country is composed of people. As a noble, you must set an example and lead the people through the new era." Good life.”

"Yes, Your Highness Princess, you are right."

Having said this, Earl Leon could only respond, even if it was only on the surface.

"Your Highness, I think you should..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a soft 'pop' sound, as if something fell to the ground.

Count Leon looked down and saw a book.

At that moment, Count Leon's pupils shrank, and the blood all over his body ran cold.

"Count Leon? What is that?"

Earl Leon suppressed the panic in his heart and bent down to pick up the book as calmly as possible.

"Nothing, just a book I wear on my body."

"Oh? A book, right?"

Seeing Princess Viola's half-smiling expression, Count Leon felt as if the back of his head was exploding.

"I'm sorry, Princess. Maybe it's because the weather is a bit hot. I feel a little unwell and want to go back first."

"Not feeling well? Then Earl Leon, please take care of yourself. If you can't find a doctor, you can come to me and I will treat you with the magic given by your Majesty."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."

Earl Leon saluted again, but this time his hands seemed to be shaking a little.

Then he hurriedly led the people away without looking back, which inexplicably reminded Viola of a dog escaping on its tail.

Upon seeing this, the knight Shelley quietly approached Viola: "Your Highness, is it really okay to let him go like this?"

"It doesn't matter. He can't be tried with only one account book. This may make the locals think that I deliberately found a reason to get rid of Earl Leon, which will be detrimental to the spread of Your Majesty's faith."

This morning when I was praying, the Demon King God sent me a ledger. It clearly records how Count Leon and his entire family embezzled taxes and disaster relief funds, and there are a large number of vouchers and records showing that he sold contraband goods to merchants from other countries.

If the Demon Kingdom of Avarus was still there, a ledger would be enough for Viola to dig up all the ancestral graves of Earl Leon, but that doesn't work now. Viola only has the Leon Territory left, so she must act cautiously. .

Due to the soldiers brought by the count, some people had dispersed, and as the crowd dwindled, Viola noticed that four people stood still.

They were three tall and one short, wearing simple fur cloaks to cover themselves tightly.

This style of painting makes people nervous at first sight, and the surrounding knights put their hands on their weapons.

"Wait, don't be impulsive."

Viola signaled the knights of the guard to relax, and waved to the four people:
"Are you from the Far Forest?"

The latter looked at each other after hearing this, and the leader took off his hood slightly, revealing dark green hair and a pair of pointed ears.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

The distribution range of tree elves is very wide, and there are traces of tree elves in all ancient forests.

Viola had heard of them, but this was the first time she saw them in person.

A few people were left to continue preaching, and everyone moved to a conference room in the castle.

As soon as they entered the door, the tree elves quickly opened their hoods and took off their cloaks. Each of them drank more than half a bottle of water before they felt relieved.

The tree elves have lost their perception of the outside world due to their long-term closed life. They have been living in the woodland where spring is all year round. They don't know what the temperature should be in April. They thought it was still very cold, so they came out wearing thick furs, but the result was almost Heat stroke.

"Are you Her Royal Highness the Princess? The Demon King God called us here. I am Zoya. The two behind me are the druids of the woodland, Seymour and Al. The one holding my arm is my sister Leah."

Many tree elves had never had any contact with outsiders. Zoya's voice was trembling but her smooth conversation was already outstanding. The two druids did not dare to speak at all and just nodded their heads.

However, Leah was very familiar with her and immediately showed an overly sweet smile:
"Hello, Your Highness, Princess."

Although he looked young, Viola knew that the youngest among the tree elves in front of her might actually be more than twice her age.

Elves all have a lifespan of 500 years. They reach adulthood around 100 years old, and they do not age after adulthood.

"Welcome, your Majesty told me that friends from the tree elves will be visiting, but I'm not sure why the tree elves are willing to show up."

The word "Kingshang" is used to address the emperor, and the title of Demon King God is 'King of Demons', so Viola uses the title "Kingshang".

How could a tree elf who had been living a closed life know this? However, Zhuo Ya reacted quickly and immediately followed Viola and said:

"Not long ago, your Majesty solved a big problem for us."

He roughly explained the cause and effect to Viola, and attached a bunch of words of thanks.

"There are no followers of the Lord in our forest. We rely on it to deliver the message."

Zoya pointed to the dove on her shoulder, and Viola discovered that the dove had the Holy Emblem of the Demon King on its leg.

"Because it is very troublesome to convey it, Your Majesty asked us to come to the city to find you to understand the specific situation."

"Your Majesty did mention you to me. It just so happens that I need your help with something."

Viola snapped her fingers, and the knight beside her immediately opened a large sack and showed it to the tree elves.

"What's this?"

"A magical tuber, your Majesty calls it potato."
