Also, he still didn't understand why they always had to wear garters!
"I thought they'd stay hidden forever. Haha... If those things haven't disappeared after you leave, I plan to chop them all down."
"Did you notice that?"
"You thought I didn't notice?"
"That's not what I meant. I apologize if that made you feel that way."
While Selene and Alice were exchanging words, the battle sisters emerged from the shadows, knelt on one knee before Selene, and bowed their heads.
There were 12 of them in total, each with long silver-gray hair and purple eyes. Considering that the battle nuns under Stella were also blonde and blue-eyed, there seemed to be some secret here.
But now Lin Yinxi's mood was messed up by the Emperor, and he had no time to think about these things.
"My battle sisters will protect you. I'll also be keeping an eye on you, so you don't have to worry."
Selene snapped her fingers, and the battle nuns who were kneeling with their heads bowed before her seemed to melt away, instantly turning into shadows and disappearing from her sight.
Aurora looked around with a reluctant expression.
"The thought of being watched all day long doesn't make me feel good."
"The Sisters of Battle only monitor the exterior of the residence. Unless something special happens, they won't go deep inside to monitor."
"...That shouldn't be a problem. Anyway, I understand."
"Then I'll take my leave."
As soon as she finished speaking, Selene put the black robe back on her head. The robe swallowed her silver-gray ponytail, and her purple eyes disappeared under the light.
Then, Selene gave everyone her final greetings, just as she had done when they first met.
"Please get some rest, and we'll see you when we leave."
Soon, the figure in the robe disappeared from sight like shattered moonlight.
And the place where the moon disappeared was illuminated by the sun again.
089. Can you be a little gentler? I feel so uncomfortable~
[Ability Value]

"That's almost it."
After using attribute points to increase his endurance to 7, Lin Yinxi removed his hand from the ability confirmation bead. As the blue light dissipated, the words and data floating in the air like a status window disappeared.
So far, he has been clearing out those miscellaneous monsters whenever he has free time, which has been very rewarding for him.
Compared to the initial days when he came to the Knights of the Silver Dawn, when all attributes were at 1, his current attribute values had indeed made great progress.
After that, all you need to do is raise your Faith stat to around 3 or 4, and then add some Strength or Mana in appropriate proportions. Or, depending on the situation, add a little Stamina to replenish your stamina. It's up to him then.
In the Darkness mod, Stamina is a completely meaningless attribute, and Faith only needs to be able to use one or two holy spells or magic. Skill attributes are also not a very necessary attribute unless he chooses to go the magic route or the faith route.
Of course, practically speaking, even for melee characters, the required attributes will vary depending on the weapon used and the combat system chosen. However, in the combat system he chose, there was no need to waste attribute points on increasing skill attributes.
"The remaining question now is how to obtain that weapon."
Lin Yinxi walked out of the room, lost in thought. Although the conditions were complete, there was still a blind spot: after the Blood Sword was outdated, how would he obtain the next weapon?
The quest you have to complete to get the weapon that matches the game's development is really notorious and is a notoriously boring quest.
This mission has both similarities and differences with the Rock Centipede, which has also been criticized by players for a long time and has been insulted by players to the point of being unbearable.
The task process is not difficult, it just consumes time like crazy and even makes people feel hopeless.
If Rock Centipede is the type of "Is the game planner an orphan? Why was it designed like this?", then this task is the type of "Did the planner make it like this on purpose to extend the game time?"
As long as you have done this task, any player can clearly see the planner's purpose. Of course, most players just complain and rarely insult.
This task requires more than 10 hours of real-time time to complete in the game.
Now it has become a reality, and it may take several months if you are not careful.
"Are you ready?"
Just as he turned the corner of the corridor, lost in thought, a figure wearing silver armor and a helmet tucked into his waist suddenly appeared, interrupting his thoughts.
It was Liz, and she greeted Lin Yinxi. Perhaps because they were about to depart, the armor seemed to have been maintained more carefully than usual, its surface shining brightly.
"I've been ready for this for a long time. What about you, Liz? Okay, I know it without you telling me. I can tell by looking at your armor."
"I'm glad my efforts weren't in vain. Our Yinxi noticed it right away."
"It's obvious, right? It looks like it could be used as a mirror. Why is it wiped like this?"
"I can't help it. I can't help myself when I think about meeting a big shot like the Pope. In the Holy Kingdom, the Pope's status is equivalent to that of our Emperor. Of course, I can't just go there casually."
"Emperor..."
Hearing Liz's words, a bitter taste unconsciously rose in his mouth. Two days ago, when he heard Selene say that the emperor cared about him very much, the shocking words made him unable to sleep that night.
Even though some time has passed and his emotions have calmed down a little, he still cannot understand why the Emperor likes him so much.
Why does she like me so much, care about me so much, and pay so much attention to me even though we have only met once?
"Yinxi, you too, are you really ready to go like this? Without even wearing armor? Aren't you nervous?"
Liz looked Lin Yinxi up and down. He was wearing a cloth shirt and leather pants as usual, wearing sensible shoes, and a blood-stained sword at his waist.
In fact, they really didn't need any other miscellaneous items. It wasn't like the Holy Kingdom wouldn't solve their food, clothing, housing, and transportation problems.
As for the armor? He couldn't roll while wearing it. Nervous? Even though it was in a game, Lin Yinxi had seen the Pope hundreds of times. All he had to do now was pray that the Pope's personality didn't change too much.
"The armor gets in the way."
"...I guess you'd say it's a secret again."
Liz looked at him with a pair of slightly unconvinced eyes.
"One day in the future, you will confess all your secrets to me. That's a promise."
Liz's reaction was more insistent than before, but with good reason.
After Selene returned that day, Lin Yinxi told Alice and Aurora about his experience in defeating Arachnella, and revealed the fact that his ability value had increased.
Perhaps it was precisely because of his increased ability that the Inquisitor was able to detect that he possessed divine power.
Before explaining, he had already thought of an excuse, saying that as he gradually regained his past memories, his physical abilities also gradually recovered.
But after going through a lot of things together, he didn't want to lie to them anymore, so he gave up on making excuses and just continued to fool them with the "secret".
At that time, Aurora and the Knight Commanders all gave him a look that was slightly dissatisfied and helpless.
"We absolutely cannot let the emperor find out, so there's nothing we can do."
To be honest, he had also thought about whether he could now confess the truth about the world to these five people. Because the Knights General were allies that could be trusted unconditionally, and even Aurora was the type who would not betray him.
But after hearing Selene's words, he decided to remain silent for a while, because he didn't know when and where the Emperor would pay attention to him.
If the emperor hadn't suddenly taken an interest in me, I would have confided my secret to them long ago...
At least until he was sure that he could bear the emperor's concern, he believed that none of his secrets could reach the emperor's ears.
I can’t bear it now. If I can’t come up with an excuse, something serious will happen.
"Of course, I'll tell you one day."
"Hmph...I won't let you get away."
Liz pouted her lips, and Lin Yinxi gently stroked her head, because he knew how profound the meaning of the word "run away" was.
Liz closed her eyes obediently, enjoying his touch.
As the two walked towards the castle's main gate, they saw the figures of the knights wearing silver armor. Standing at the front was Alice, and she spoke as soon as she saw Lin Yinxi.
"I'm not wearing armor this time. Aren't you nervous?"
"Liz asked that just now. Is there any connection between armor and nervousness?"
"...After all, you are going to meet the Pope of the Holy Kingdom. Apart from His Majesty the Emperor, I'm afraid you are the only one who can be so calm and composed, Lin Yinxi."
The answer was filled with nervousness and uneasiness. He had thought Alice would remain calm, but that was not the case.
“Is everyone here?”
Swish, Selene suddenly appeared beside everyone, just like when they first met, she gently took off the robe covering her face from over her head.
Because she appeared so quickly, the Knights Generals reflexively placed their hands on their weapons, and only relaxed their posture after confirming her identity.
“Is that… magic?”
"I appreciate you calling it magic. But it's nothing like it."
Selene replied calmly, then pulled out the Holy Catalyst from the sleeve of her robe. The Holy Catalyst was dark silver in color, with a full moon painted in its center.
"Please gather near me. We're moving."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sacred catalyst shone brightly. It was as if night had fallen, and the moonlight shone brightly through the darkness. White light, mixed with the moon's silver glow, spread in all directions.
Ding-ling-ling~, as the delicate tinkling sound unique to the sacred catalyst rang out, the light permeated everyone around Selene.
When the surrounding light faded, they were already standing in the courtyard of the lord's mansion. In front of them, Aurora came into view, her arms crossed, waiting for everyone.
"Lord Aurora?"
After seeing Aurora's expression, Alice made a confused sound.
"I requested that the Inquisitor come here before heading to the Holy Kingdom. You just defeated a monster and are now going to see the Pope. I can't let you just leave like that, can I?"
Aurora uncrossed her arms and strode toward the group, handing over the heavy bag. Alice took it and opened it.
It was filled with Imperial gold coins.
"This is......?"
"This should be enough. The Holy Kingdom's currency is worth about the same as the Imperial currency, so you won't lose out if you use it. It may not be necessary, but just in case, keep it."
"Yes, I will accept it gratefully. Can I return the remaining money to you when I return?"
"What? Why give it back? This is for you. Divide the rest. This is the public property of the Knights. Do with it as you please."
That fat pig embezzled too much of the funds before, and this is just pocket change to me, so you don't have to worry about it."
"Well, thank you, Lord Aurora."
"..."
After saying these words, Aurora stared at Lin Yinxi with her unique golden eyes, with complicated emotions in her eyes.
This look unconsciously made Lin Yinxi feel a little burdened, because it reminded him of an emperor who also had black hair and golden eyes.
"......What's wrong?"
"Because you're fascinating. I was curious as to why, even the Holy Kingdom's Pope cared so much about you, not just the Emperor... Then it suddenly occurred to me. You have many secrets."
"If I knew the reason, I would have avoided it a long time ago."
He was also surprised that the emperor and the pope cared so much about him even though the main storyline hadn't progressed for long.
