Chapter 1001 275: Love and the Fickle Divine Favored—Kael's Starry Night
The corners of the Divine Favored's mouth lifted higher, saying, "I came this time under the orders of Pope Mephiel to investigate and assist in the espionage of foreign countries, to steal the core interests of our Sacred Briania, two Magic Monarchs of the Holy Law Hall.
Please do not stir trouble without reason. This is truly an internal affair of our Sacred Briania."
Kael's expression twitched slightly.
Just as the Divine Favored said, this matter, in a certain sense, is indeed a domestic affair of Sacred Briania, and he actually didn't have much reason to get involved.
Some of the forces present, which had always followed behind the Bell Federation, also showed a hint of hesitation in their eyes.
After all, the saying "minding one's own business" applies here. For the Bell Federation, these two Magic Monarchs from the enemy were never really their people, and for many Mage Forces close to the Bell Federation, they would rather see Sacred Briania have internal strife.
In fact, Kael also hesitated, but he quickly thought of another issue.
Others may not know, but how could Kael not understand the situation of the two Magic Monarchs of the Holy Law Hall?
They had signed their names on the Akasha Contract, one of the future participants in the Floating City Project.
In normal circumstances, even if the two Magic Monarchs were directly attacked by deities and crushed to death in the wilderness, Kael wouldn't feel any internal turmoil.
But at this particular point in time, he hesitated.
After all, the two Magic Monarchs had signed the Akasha Contract.
This meant that they and their affiliated forces would become an important part of the Floating City Project in the future.
If now, before the public, they choose to ignore their crisis, then even if the Monarchs involved in this plan keep silent, they will secretly think:
"In front of everyone, if your Bell Federation couldn't protect the participants of the Floating City, what about when we're outside the territories of your Bell Federation? Wouldn't we be more easily manipulated by Sacred Briania?"
When morale dissipates, it's hard to lead the team.
Although considering the inherent value of the Floating City in the Floating City Project, the various Magic Monarchs will still choose to continue building the Floating City. Yet, by then, the possibility of following the lead of the Bell Federation will decrease significantly.
After all, if your federation doesn't fight for it, then what's the reason for them to continue supporting the federation's side?
Once such thoughts take root, the already secretly formed alliance established in critical moments could directly face problems. The future will involve various forces collapsing due to a breakdown in trust, falling under the attacks of the Divine Favored.
Just as he made up his mind, Monarch Bartlet patted his shoulder and glanced at the Divine Favored from the Church of the God of Love and Changeability, snorting lightly, saying:
"If your Sacred Briania has any demands to express to the federation, let Pope Mephiel provide us a specific response through official channels, rather than simply letting some nobodies make a loud noise on others' land."
The disciple of the God of Love and Changeability had a slight change in their eyes, their gaze appearing deeper, saying:
"Are you sure about this?"
"Today's banquet is hosted by us, and we can't simply nod in agreement right away just because someone unknown suddenly came out and said a few words...
After all, who knows if you are falsely using Pope Mephiel's name to intimidate others? I think even Pope Mephiel wouldn't want someone to act in his name without confirming the related circumstances with him first?"
The Divine Favored of Love and Changeability fell silent for a moment, smiling as he looked at the people of the Bell Federation, somewhat surprised, saying:
"Then be prepared!"
He spoke calmly, yet his tone and voice let Kael feel the profound malice hidden within, so deep it was unfathomable.
The Divine Favored didn't say much else, just smiled slightly, leaned closer, stood below the high platform, looked up at Kael, and said:
"We originally came with good intentions."
"To be honest, if we can, we don't wish to become adversaries with Sacred Briania. After all, the sides are too large, and if a collision truly occurs, I'm afraid it's not just us who will suffer. More people would be dragged into the flames of war, which would make things difficult for us..."
Kael sighed, as if showing weakness, but in the next second, he squeezed out more honest emotions through his teeth:
"But since the struggle is unavoidable, then let's bring the initiative back to our hands. Friends will be welcomed with good wine, uninvited guests will meet question with a cleaver, and if there's any dissatisfaction..."
Kael lifted his head to look at the man, smiling, saying: "Then let's have a clash; let's see the real moves under the hands."
The Divine Favored of Love and Changeability squinted, a slightly crazed, happy smile appearing on his face.
"Fine, I'll remember those words, and hope when you stand in front of that dignitary, you can still be as commendably brave as now."
Yet... Divine Favored, huh?
Kael listened to him laugh in a seemingly bewitching manner beside him, his expression unchanged.
Their eyes met once again, seeing Kael's ruby-like eyes, he squinted slightly, using his Priest Robe to cover half of his body, and as the mask of gentle words was pierced, he slowly spoke in a cold voice:
