Devil's Bible

Chapter 94: They can sleep, but you can't?
After the carriage had passed, the priest suddenly broke free from some kind of control and collapsed to the ground, covered in sweat.

He was breathing heavily, his face filled with fear.

"The gap... how could it be... so big!" The priest was a combat priest of the Judgment Team. He had recently been promoted to the Iron Seed level for his meritorious service in the operation against the Floating World Society.

They had received advance notice that Nemes was coming.

He couldn't help but want to test Nemus's abilities, as Nemus was also a newly promoted Grand Knight.

While secretly casting spells, he also ordered his subordinates to make things difficult for him.

He roughly judged that once they engaged in combat, he could instantly cast a spell and then intimidate the situation.

With his own preparations, he was fully capable of using the advantages of a priest spellcaster to suppress Nemus.

However, while the idea was good, its execution inexplicably turned out this way.

First, his own spell was dispelled by a newly promoted priest on the opposing side.

In the end, he was so eager to heal his subordinates that before he could even make a move, he was instantly killed by a basic ability of Nemus.

The spiritual will of a typical Iron-type paladin is only good for bullying ordinary people and giving them some resistance to charm, mental, and illusion spells.

Who would have thought that Nems could use this to forcefully control himself for a few seconds?

This disparity almost caused him to lose his composure.

However, he still possesses some ability to become a Steel Seed Priest.

He tried to keep his composure and then reported the current situation to his superiors via a grid.

The reason why the adjudication team was able to suppress most people with the strength of a single team is naturally because most of their members are elites.

Just like his two subordinates now, if they were in other teams, they could basically become full-fledged paladins.

However, even within the referee team, they can only be trainees.

"Even so, the village guardian's strength is definitely not simple."

"What exactly did Nair do in the years he was away in Backfin Village after leaving the Dartmenley family?" The priest gradually sat up from the ground, and his thoughts gradually returned to normal.

"This matter is difficult to explain clearly." All the conflicts today are illegal.

Nemes had visitation rights; he produced the documents he had signed, and his entry into the mansion was legal.

His obstruction was illegal.

However, it was also against regulations for Nemes to have someone take direct action afterward.

After that, the two sides started fighting, and things became unclear.

He might even suffer a loss if he tells anyone.

After all, their referee team has always emphasized various rules.

But this time, they were the ones who broke the rules first.

In the end, he lost, so there were no more excuses left.

Ignoring the priest's thoughts behind him, Nemes' carriage drove through the courtyard and soon stopped at the gate.

By this time, many servants inside the mansion had heard the commotion and came forward tremblingly.

"My lord!" The servants, however, had not been restricted in their movements during this time.

However, the key individuals were not allowed to leave the courtyard.

"Have you been paid?" Nemus asked a servant beside him with a smile as he got off the carriage.
"It's settled!" The servant, bewildered, could only answer truthfully.

"Then leave."

“Everyone is.” With that, Nemus walked into the mansion.

Poole pushed open the door, and Kru followed beside Nemus, secretly preparing for casting a spell. One advantage of having two bodies was that the preparations needed for casting a spell could be done by the overlapping self, or by both of them together, to speed up the casting process or enhance the power of the spell.

He can do anything twice as fast as others.

Furthermore, Nemus was always very generous to his loyal subordinates. After returning yesterday, Nemus taught him the secret technique of Bimodal Harmony.

With the two bodies working in tandem, Kru's strength far exceeds that of normal circumstances.

He is currently only a priest with a stat of 6, but he is able to detect the spellcasting fluctuations of the Ironborn priests first and quickly determine the opponent's spellcasting.

They then completed their spellcasting almost simultaneously, using their counter-spell to counter the opponent's spell and defend against it.

As Nemes entered the mansion, people in the inner courtyard had already heard the commotion and came over.

The person in the lead was an old woman.

She was accompanied by several children and some women.

In the Xibin family, he is the only adult male left in this generation.

"Grand Knight Nair, what brings you here today?" Although she was forbidden from leaving, she still had the necessary information.

Even last night, someone hurriedly reminded them that the new Grand Knight would come looking for trouble.

Nemes glanced at the Xibin family, typical minor nobles after a family division.

The talented son, along with his mother and wife, started a business in a foreign land on his own. Apart from himself, the family members were mostly younger generations.

The eldest male member is his eldest son.

He is currently thirteen years old. Although he still has some childishness, his body has begun to develop. He has been training as a knight for several years. Judging from his actions and behavior, his stat is three, indicating good talent.

At this moment, he was slightly supporting his grandmother, his head lowered, trying his best to hide the hatred in his eyes.

In addition, he has two other sons and three daughters.

"Kru, have the results of the investigation come out yet?" Nems didn't answer the old woman's question, but instead asked his assistant.

"Most of them have already come out. The former Grand Knight, now the sinner Xibin, his legal and compliant assets are insufficient to support this mansion."

"According to calculations, he has already used his position to obtain other benefits, so strictly speaking, everything, including his residence, should be seized."

"The compliant portion will be returned to his family once the accounting and cleanup are completed."

Hearing this, Nems finally smiled and looked at the old woman: "You see, that's the situation."

"Please pack your clothes and other personal belongings and move out of this house."

"If you kick us out, where will we live?!" Xibin's eldest son, Zuowen, could no longer hold back and questioned him.

“That’s not something we should be concerned about.” Nems didn’t care about the other party’s anger.

"Besides, aren't there many workers in the South District who don't have a place to live and choose to sleep on the streets?"

“You are all human beings. Just because they can sleep doesn’t mean you can’t.”

“How could we go with those bastards…” Upon hearing this, Zuowen immediately seemed to have been subjected to the ultimate insult.

Nems didn't look at the other person, but at the old woman.

The other person could no longer maintain their usual kind expression; their face was now gloomy.

"Go pack your things," the old woman ordered after taking a deep breath.

She knew Nemes's purpose was simply to put their family in a difficult situation so that she could force her son out.

"But, Great Knight, what has been done will be done again, and what has been done will be done again!"
