Female priests: Can pastors only be bullied?

The movement behind him naturally could not be hidden from Xin Lai's eyes.

When she saw Ito apologize and defend himself for his impolite behavior, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

“Well, Ito, you’re still the same… You’re still defending me even though I’m being so disrespectful.

Alas... there is nothing I can do about you..."

......

With Ito mediating, the members of the brave team quickly dispelled their dissatisfaction with Xinlai's attitude.

They followed Xin Lai through the endless corridors, and finally, they stopped in front of a big door.

This gate looks majestic from the outside, and the surface of the gate is exquisitely crafted. A closer look reveals that there are seven golden statues of different animals carved on it, making it look particularly impressive.

Xin Lai took a step forward and pushed the door open. With a creaky sound, the scene inside the door appeared in front of everyone.

This is a very large room, but there are no decorations or furniture in the room. In other words, the only decoration is a painting hanging on the wall that is two people tall.

There are scrolls neatly arranged on three walls, each depicting a strange scene.

Seeing this, doubts flashed through Ito's mind. He didn't understand why Xin Lai brought him here...and, most importantly, he had never been here before. He thought he knew the full picture of the palace, but now, it seems that this is not the case.

The brave team was also confused, and they looked at Ito with doubtful eyes, wanting to ask what was going on. But when they saw that Ito had the same confused look as them, they knew that Ito probably didn't know either, just like them.

"Ito, you probably haven't been here before."

Xin Lai turned around, squinted his eyes, and asked Ito with a smile.

In response, Ito did not deny it and nodded:

"Well... I've certainly never been here, but... what's the point of coming to this room? And those paintings on the wall...?"

"Well...how should I put it? If I have to say it, this matter might be quite complicated.

However, this room may be the most important to Gwen, and I guess only my sisters know about it."

Xin Lai's words aroused strong curiosity in Ito's heart.

He turned his gaze towards these intricate paintings and upon closer inspection, he discovered something extraordinary.

"These paintings...are they depicting seven demon kings? This..."

"That's right. Hehe, I didn't expect that you, Ito, still have some brains."

Xin Lai suddenly changed his cold temperament and laughed out loud, which gave people a great sense of contrast.

Then, Xin Lai explained:

“Well… well, the earliest of these paintings are probably about a thousand years old.

The paintings above are all records of the lives of the seven sisters, but unfortunately, there are only paintings from 1,000 to 800 years ago, so there are really not many. "

"The Demon King... Seven Sisters...? Sure enough, these are all true..."

Elphis frowned and murmured. Although she didn't know much about the real Demon King, she at least knew that there seemed to be seven Demon Kings. But how come there were only four left... She didn't know the details.

Ito was shocked by what Xin Lai said. He quickly took a few steps forward, came to the front of the paintings, and looked at them carefully.

What surprised Ito was that the scenes depicted in these paintings seemed to be very harmonious, and there was no discord between the demon kings as he imagined Shinrai had previously portrayed.

As if seeing the doubt in Ito's eyes, Xin Lai explained with a smile:

"Eight hundred years ago, the relationship between us seven sisters was very good, just like real sisters."

"Eight hundred years ago... Well, if I remember correctly, the war between the seven demon kings seemed to be seven hundred years ago..."

"Yes, a hundred years later, our relationship has changed drastically... Our originally close sisterly relationship has suddenly turned into an irreconcilable enemy..."

Speaking of this, a trace of sadness flashed in the depths of Xin Lai's eyes.

That memory...maybe it's a bad thing for Xin Lai himself.

Seeing Xin Lai's appearance, Ito couldn't help but feel a little worried and asked:

"Xinlai...are you okay?"

Xin Lai came to her senses belatedly. She also realized her own gaffe and quickly waved her hands and said in a slightly awkward tone:

"It's okay... It's okay. I accidentally strayed from the topic. Sorry for making you listen to so much nonsense..."

This apology made the brave team have a slightly better impression of her, but only a little. After all, it was Xin Lai who forcibly abducted Ito, and everyone still had a lot of complaints about her.

Elphis shook her head and said:

"It's okay. We don't care about these. It's nice to listen to them."

"Ah."

Xin Lai took a deep breath and interrupted his thoughts.

Then, he spoke seriously:

“We must have a doubt in our hearts.

There is only one demon king in the book drawn by successive heroes, and the demon king is not very powerful because he has just been sealed."

Xin Lai's words really hit the nail on the head. They expressed the doubts in everyone's heart.

“Perhaps you have guessed the answer to this question.

You, the sixth generation, may be the strongest among all the heroes of all generations. The strongest heroes I met before were probably only at the S-level intermediate level 2. The strength of other professions... is probably only at the low level.

Even if there were ten of them, they would not be able to defeat a single demon king like us."

"So...you mean...the records in those books are all...fake...?"

"Well...it's not wrong if you put it that way. It is indeed false."

When the contents of the book were actually admitted to be false, the brave team felt a little embarrassed.

After all, they grew up reading these books, and their goal as heroes is to become powerful warriors like the previous generations, defeat the demon king and seal him, and then return peace to the world.

Now, I tell them that these are all fake and have been planned...
