Strength 99999 but the Holy Sister

But now, her heart was brought up by Aisha.
"Thank you, Elsa."
Grace said, raising her head. She has never been a pretentious person, but this time her expression was extremely serious.
"As long as I can do it, no matter what it is, I will..."
She was about to say something else, but Aisha interrupted her.
"Well, now's the time to change your clothes," Elsa said with a smile, "You can't go to see the king like this."
Grace subconsciously looked at what she was wearing - a thick gray wizard robe, which was quite practical and simple, but indeed not suitable for formal occasions.
"Tricia, Becky, and I need to change clothes too, and I happen to know a place."
Aisha said.
The three of them had just come out of the sea, and although they had cleaned themselves up a little, they still exuded the smell of the ocean.
Although it is necessary to be more "casual", it is not appropriate to be too casual.
……
I don't know if it's because the storm in the sea has subsided, but today we have a long-awaited sunny day. This is undoubtedly a good day for the people living in the port of Bolmo - what's more, all kinds of rumors are circulating in the streets today. The commotion in the stormy sea last night was quite big. Many people were awakened and witnessed the shocking spectacle on the sea with their own eyes.
People took to the streets, especially the harbor, which was already crowded with people who had gathered out of curiosity, and it was extremely lively.
As a result, the square that was once bustling has become deserted.
The clothing store in the corner of the square——
Bona was diligently repairing things in the studio on the second floor. She was humming a song and was in a very good mood because just last night the city guards came to her house and sent her brother and sister home. Although they looked thinner and listless, the pastor of the church came to their house in person to pray for them and give them treatment, and they are now fine.
There is nothing more joyful than having our loved ones who were captured by the vampires and turned into blood slaves return safely.
Jingle Bell--
There was a crisp sound of bells coming from downstairs, indicating that guests were coming.
Bona quickly put down the scissors in her hand, took off her glasses and walked quickly downstairs.
"Welcome to Bona's tailor shop..."
Halfway through her words, she realized that the people who came were Elsa and Becky - they were the ones who came here a few days ago and subdued the vampire, and then not long after, her brothers and sisters were sent back safely. Bona knew that they must have been a great help.
However, she also discovered that there were several unfamiliar faces coming with Aisha and Becky.
"I want to buy some clothes."
Aisha said with a smile.
……
Just as Tricia said, this banquet was indeed simple. It was held in the mayor's palace of Bormo City. King Garshakin Geri did not even have a minister by his side. There was only his secretary and a strong warrior, as well as the mayor of Bormo City and the bishop of the Bormo Church.
In contrast, there are six people on Elsa's side.
Garshakin Gri, Tricia and Aisha were the only ones who spoke. The others hardly spoke at all. When facing the king, the city lord and the bishop seemed extremely nervous, and the man dressed as a warrior was quite taciturn.
On the other hand, Charlie and Becky were much better off. After all, Grace had worked for the Queen of Hercules Butana and was used to these scenes. Becky and Charlie often saw Tricia, the contemporary mystical sage, and had gradually become accustomed to it. Only Novi seemed quite restrained.
However, although it was "simple", the dishes prepared were actually extremely rich. The city lord got almost any kind of ingredients that Bolmo could get and prepared an exceptionally sumptuous lunch.
In addition, there is amber beer, a specialty of Belmont Ferrea. Of course, good beer must be served when entertaining guests. This is the Ute people's way of hospitality.
In the empire, people usually drank and chatted after dinner, or had drinks and snacks.
At Belmont Ferrea, chatting takes place almost simultaneously with eating and drinking.
Garshakin Geri, the king of Belmontferrea—there was no one in this land who didn't know this renowned king; his stories could be heard even in the Western Continent. More than forty years ago, he personally mounted his horse and led elite warriors in declaring war on the Demon King's army. He was severely wounded many times during the war but never left the front lines. He was valiant and skilled in fighting, and had made great achievements. He was also the forger of the Brave Armor and the Sage's Staff. The former had been destroyed during the war, but the latter was still in the hands of the Sage.
Although he is now over eighty years old, he is still as vigorous and charming as ever. He sits firmly on the throne of king and governs the Northern Kingdom in an orderly, prosperous and wealthy manner.
Everyone said that if it weren't for the Empress of the Empire, he would undoubtedly be the most legendary king.
"...and also, he's an old friend of mine."
Tricia is always so elegant and generous. She is both a guest and a bridge builder, introducing everyone to each other.
What surprised Elsa and the others was that the legendary King Garshakin Geri turned out to be a kind-looking old man. He even gave Elsa the feeling of being with an old priest. Neither his clothes nor his behavior showed the majesty of a king. Instead, he was very approachable.
It is really hard to imagine what this king looked like when he was young and galloping on the battlefield.
When Tricia finished her introduction, the old king burst into laughter, his face beaming with joy. He was so happy that he tilted his head back and drank a large glass of beer.
"When I was young, I was very capable!" He smiled, revealing a row of big white teeth, and looked very proud. It was obvious that he enjoyed the praise from others and was proud of it.
"However," he looked at Elsa and said with a smile, "but I'm definitely not as good as you, Miss Faris. I heard that you even killed Tobias. It's really amazing - I suffered a lot from that guy in the past!"
Garshakin Gurley put down his wine glass and raised his left hand. Everyone was surprised to find that his entire arm was empty.
"Don't look at me like this. Even though I have a broken arm, if I were to carry a hammer, even now there are few people who can withstand my old bones."
His tone was full of confidence.
"He is also a master forger, Aisha. Your spear was reforged and reinforced by him personally."
Tricia said this to Elsa, which really surprised Elsa - Elsa didn't know about this before. When Tricia handed the spear to her, she only knew that it was made by the so-called "Ute Master", but she didn't know that this "Master" was the ruler of a country.
"How's my craft? Is it pretty good? Are you using it well?"
Garshakin Gri looked at Elsa expectantly. When Tricia handed the spear to him, he was somewhat reluctant. But when he heard that Elsa had fought Tobias with this spear and even that Tobias died at Elsa's hands, he accepted the job without a second thought. Now that he thought about it, the spear could be ranked among his masterpieces in his life.
Although Tobias died from Elsa's fist rather than a spear, what does it matter?
"Excellent, very reliable, perfect center of gravity, the best weapon I've ever used."
Aisha gave it a very high evaluation.
If she had to say anything, she wished the spear were a little heavier and stronger. Of course, it was best not to say such things in front of the blacksmith.
The luncheon didn't last long.
During this time, Garshakin was mainly chatting with Aisha and Tricia. Halfway through the conversation, even the city lord and others avoided it, leaving only Garshakin's secretary. That was the time Tricia specially left for Grace. The topic about witches was actually very sensitive, but Garshakin still agreed very happily.
After all, if the potential harm posed by the witch could be solved, it would certainly be a great thing. It would only require effort to find and contact her, and Garshakin would naturally be willing to provide help.
By the way, we also talked about Mengsk Village.
After that, the topic quickly shifted from Tobias to the remnants of the Demon King's army, then to the vampires and the Storm Sea, which was closely related to Belmont Freya.
Up to this point, the topic had become very political - or rather, this was Garshakin Geri's original purpose. Something earth-shattering had happened to the sea people in his neighboring Storm Sea, and it would be a miracle for him, as the king of Belmont Freya, to sit still.
These things cannot be explained in a few words and must be discussed face to face.
What's more, Elsa, the hotly discussed figure among the upper class, is still here. It would be a good thing if we could make friends with her.
That's why he came here in such a hurry.
"So that's how it is. That Hayes has returned to the sea clan..."
Garshakin's aged face had a few more wrinkles on it, and he frowned deeply as he pondered the details.
As the king of Belmont Freya, he had to consider more things.
Although the Storm Sea was once dangerous, its threat wasn't particularly troublesome unless it was winter. A detour southward could still lead to a route to the Western Continent. While the Storm Sea no longer experiences storms, the return of the renowned Emperor Hayes from the history of the sea race is certain to cause a major upheaval in this area.
Is this a good thing or a bad thing for Belmont Freya, which borders the Storm Sea?
When a matter rises to the level of ethnic groups and countries, it becomes a matter of great importance.
"So I hope you can pay more attention to their movements. You are the only one on the Eastern Continent that directly borders the Storm Sea. As for the Western Continent, I will directly explain the situation to the Pope. I believe the Church will also make arrangements."
Tricia said.
"Of course."
Garshakin agreed after a little consideration. This was something he had to do. Since Tricia was helping to cooperate with the Vatican, he had no reason not to agree.
……
After the banquet, Elsa and the others did not stay in the City Lord's Mansion, but took a few happy walks around the Bolmo Harbor together. Charlie and Novi had a good experience of the exotic customs. Along the way, Grace also smiled more rarely, and it was obvious that she was very happy today.
The next day, everyone returned to the Barony of Fisher. Surprisingly, Ruby was not there. There was a huge hole in the middle of the castle, and half of it had collapsed.
Before Elsa could figure out what was going on, she saw Duke Charlbliss who was guarding outside.
"I'm here to say goodbye."
Duke Chalblis explained his purpose. He had completely wiped out the remnants of the organization that followed Alman. He had now recalled his men and was preparing to leave the border. However, before that, he wanted to talk to Elsa, so he was waiting here.
Of course, this was just what he said to Elsa. In fact, the real situation was that he still wanted to see Charlie again - he was still obsessed with the inexplicable blood power displayed by Charlie. After all, for a vampire duke like him who had become an old monster, only this kind of thing could attract him.
But at this moment, he seemed to suddenly realize something and looked at Becky who had been following Elsa with an inexplicable expression.
He looked at it carefully and was shocked.
"Miss Becky, why are you..."
Although it seemed very weak at the moment, Chalbliss could indeed sense from Becky a breath of blood power similar to that in Charlie.
Isn't this right?
He recognized Becky, but Becky clearly didn't...
Chalbliss looked at Aisha in horror.
Aisha smiled slightly, which made Charlbis feel creepy, and he stopped asking questions.
Before leaving, he said to Aisha, "Lady Faris, an envoy was sent from Dragon Canyon yesterday. He should be waiting for you now. I think it may be related to the dragon named Ruby."
After saying that, he left in a hurry, obviously not wanting to get involved in this mess.
"Ruby?"
Elsa and Tricia looked at each other and came to the atrium. Ruby was still lying there, and this time there was a tall and hot red-haired woman next to Ruby. In the corner not far away, there was a man lying there with his body burned black, in a miserable state, and half-dead. It was Alman.
The red-haired woman had a gloomy face and held a ball of fire in her hand. The flames could be seen flickering faintly among her fiery red hair.
"How dare you stand and talk to me, you blood-sucking parasite?"
Alman took two breaths in one breath and looked half dead.
"who are you?"
Elsa spoke, pausing.
Hearing Elsa's voice, Alman, who was almost burned to charcoal, suddenly had a gleam in his eyes and seemed to come alive.
It's Elsa!
There is help!
The red-haired woman also noticed the arrival of Aisha and Tricia, and her eyes suddenly dropped and frowned.
"Human, who allowed you to stand and talk to me..."
Bang.
Elsa's fist hit her in the face, and her whole face was deformed. The air waves rolled, and the shock wave flattened the rubble. The next moment, the red-haired woman turned into a ray of light and pierced straight through the sky, and a big hole opened in the layers of clouds.
"If you can't speak, don't speak."
Elsa wiped her hands. She had already restrained her strength. She would definitely not die, but it would probably hurt a little.
Ruby, who was sleeping on the side, opened one eye to look for a moment, then closed it again and continued to rest, without moving her tail at all.
"That woman just now should be a transformed red dragon. If I'm not mistaken, she's a red dragon with quite pure bloodline. This means she has a high status among the dragons."
Tricia looked at the sky and suddenly said, as if thinking about something.
"Who is she?"
Erza asked Ruby, who was taking a leisurely nap.
"My aunt."
Ruby spoke normally, and she seemed to speak much more fluently than she did two months ago.
"Your aunt?" Auntie is a red dragon, so how could Ruby be a black dragon? Elsa thought about it and decided not to dwell on it. "Why did she ask you for help?"
"She wants to take me back."
"so?"
"I didn't want to leave, but she insisted on taking me away, so this older brother came out, and then he got burned."
Elsa glanced at Alman and cast a few healing spells.
