The last ray of sunlight disappeared below the horizon Deep darkness enveloped the entire village

Usually, during this tiers would have ended their daily tasks and visit the pub for leisure Chatting, enjoying the food and alcohol to spend some time after a hard day of work Afterwards, they would return hoht into bed Once the next day arrives, they would repeat that action, and that’s how they lived their days in a village

However, it was a pity that they can’t enjoy it today The pub was taken over by the “evil, irritating and terrifying” roup, so they didn’t have the chance to drown their weary souls in beer Moreover, early that evening, they received an indirect threat froesting’ that they should stay indoors for their own safety or else they ‘ht’ end up as bait for the undead creatures

The villagers could only curse and swear behind the backs of those dah so the curfew, they were re helplessly in bed —- If they didn’t wish to face the same consequences, then it’s better to stay out of trouble

And right now, the athered at the square They started to fore teepee ca everyone to see each other clearly Celia quietly stood in the middle, with both hands on the sword hilt while her eyes were closed The rest of thes Although the undead creatures were troubleso this kind of dangerous life with Rhode Besides, with the coel, everyone felt emboldened

“Devil worshi+pper?”

Marlene opened her eyes slightly wider, revealing some confusion

“Never did I expect thee That’s really odd”

“Is it really that odd?”

“Yes, it is I had a few encounters with the church handling the devil worshi+pper during ic, the devil worshi+pper should hide in big cities because a bigger population meant that it was easier for therievous harm To a devil, chaos, death, and dee like this, to be honest, even if it burned down, the devils wouldn’t spare a glance at it”

“In normal circued his shoulders

“However if there’s so that the devils wanted from here, then it’s another htly shocked after hearing Rhode’s reply She iirl sitting beside Lize

“She… attracted the devil’s attention? Although this little girl has traces of devil descent, since there are countless of half devils around in this world, I doubt the devils would only pay attention to her?”

“As for this, I’m not too sure”

Rhode shook his head as he didn’t know much of this

“However today, I sensed a faint evil presence fro to Christie Although Celia thought that the presence was left behind by Christie unknowingly, I felt that it wasn’t the case Besides, I have sufficient reasons to prove this point”

After co his sentence, Rhode opened his arence we received, it isn’t odd that this village got attacked by undead creatures every night Yet, froe chief, I realized that there e number of undead creatures, which is very odd Because, if they want to offer sacrifices to the devils, then the safest way should be through carrying it out privately Once the overnors easily; which is e’re here Moreover, if they truly wanted to offer sacrifices to the devil, they shouldn’t have created so many undead creatures After all, there are much more benefits if they offered the spirits to the devils”

“This indeed reelance at Rhode Although she had spent a lot of tiotten used to his vast knowledge, at this moment, Marlene felt that Rhode had reached an oes and clerics with higher rankings could not be certain soiven her an ‘always-ready’ sensation as if he could iive you an answer no matter what you asked him

Of course, Marlene didn’t know that Rhode had been granted the title of ‘walking library’ And to hion Soul Continent had no secrets The devils were no exception

“But if that’s the truth, asn’t Christie kept in captivity?”

Marlene was doubtful

“And they could also send her away anytih time”
