This Holy Knight is So Despicable!-Chapter 627 - 546 The Arrival of the Holy Daughter

As the representative of the entire Divine Court, Aloe led the envoy group to the Holy Mountain this time, feeling immense pressure.

The relationship between the Holy Mountain and the Divine Court had become quite delicate as it stood today.

The Divine Court dispatched the envoy group to both show goodwill and to find a way to understand the secrets of this Holy Mountain.

After all, this place appeared suddenly and spread wildly like wildfire, in the blink of an eye, it had already become a raging blaze.

When the Divine Court wanted to curb its development, it embarrassingly found that the other party had already grown into a formidable entity similar to itself.

At this point, trying to completely eliminate the other party was nothing but wishful thinking.

Only by seeking new ways of cooperation for mutual wins was the best option.

Of course, this was the attitude of everyone on the surface.

In reality, the Pope had already instructed Aloe, the Holy Daughter, privately.

This visit was crucial for determining who would be the real orthodoxy between the Divine Court and the Holy Mountain in the future.

By any means, they had to try to uncover the secrets of the Holy Mountain!

The best outcome would be to find the secret of the Holy Mountain's cure for Dark Corrosion, and if necessary, be prepared to sacrifice for the Divine Court.

Even if they couldn't find the root of the Secret Technique, finding some scandals or weaknesses of the other party to bring some initiative for the Divine Court would also be beneficial.

After all, compared to the newly established Holy Mountain, the Divine Court, which had existed for so long, also had too much dark history.

Taking on this heavy responsibility, Holy Daughter Aloe was despondent inside.

Because her position as the Holy Daughter was obtained through backdoor means.

Aloe's father was a Red Archbishop of the Divine Court, who spent great effort to push his daughter to the position of Holy Daughter to gain an advantage in the next papal election.

But Aloe knew very well that in terms of talent or devotion to the Holy Light, she could only be considered ordinary among the many Holy Daughter candidates.

But the current Divine Court was like this; relying solely on talent and effort was impossible to establish a foothold.

In the Divine Court, what mattered was strength and background.

Seeing the Holy Mountain in front, after a nearly week-long trek, Holy Daughter Aloe's eyes were full of fatigue and timidity.

It was said that even though Aloe was placed in the position of Holy Daughter by her father's power and was seen by others as the result of a deal,

she did quite well in these years as the Holy Daughter.

Not because she experienced a qualitative leap in talent after becoming Holy Daughter,

but because the current environment of the Divine Court was more suitable for someone like her, with background and willingness to work hard.

At least Aloe found all tasks went smoothly, and with her reasonable talents, she thrived, receiving better evaluations than previous Holy Daughters.

Many even saw her as the hope for the revival of the Church Court; her Red Archbishop father was especially proud.

But Aloe knew well that her style of Holy Daughter being popular in the Divine Court indicated that the Divine Court was already deeply sick.

"It really is dazzling."

Looking at the towering and holy mountain range in front, Aloe couldn't help but praise.

Once, she also longed for such pure and magnificent light until reality shattered her dreams.

Even though she came with a different mission, as a believer of the Holy Light, she couldn't help feeling a closeness to such sacred and bright places.

"The person who created such a Holy Land, that legendary Divine Envoy, what kind of person are they?"

Holy Daughter Aloe murmured, and in a daze, remembered the ambiguous hints of the Pope, blushing uncontrollably.

While she was lost in thought, a Light Knight riding alongside approached the carriage and reported softly.

"Holy Daughter, we're about to enter the Holy Mountain's pilgrimage residential area."

"Pilgrimage residential area?"

"Yes, it's said that the people from all over the continent who came for pilgrimage spontaneously stayed near the Holy Mountain, gradually forming villages and towns."

Aloe nodded in surprise: "I see, just like the Light Holy City at the beginning..."

Halfway through her sentence, Aloe began to smile bitterly.

The current Light Holy City was not like before; as the headquarters of the Light God Sect, it became private for the nobility and church high-ups.

Other believers were not even allowed to approach for pilgrimage.

Under the pretense of preventing the Light from being tainted, knowing people understood that the so-called Light had been...

Shaking her head, Aloe became more curious about the Divine Envoy in the Holy Mountain.

For the first time, she sincerely thanked her identity as Holy Daughter.

If she were not the Holy Daughter, perhaps she wouldn't have the chance for a close encounter with the other party.

Thinking of this, Aloe couldn't help feeling excited internally.

"Ahead, is it the Light Envoy Group from the Divine Court?"

Just as the convoy was about to enter the pilgrimage area, a shout came from ahead.

"That's right, we are the envoy group from the Holy City of Light, sent by the Pope to the Holy Mountain.

Oh, aren't you Knight Commander Terry?"

Hearing the voice of the knight in front, Aloe quickly lifted the carriage curtain and joyfully poked her head out.

"Uncle Terry!"

"Aloe, it really is you!"

Light Knight Commander Terry was very happy: "I guessed right, the Pope eventually chose to send you."

Aloe jumped off the carriage, took a few steps to the front of the team. Knight Commander Terry dismounted to greet her.

"It's been half a year; our Aloe has become more beautiful."

"Uncle Terry, how did you... how did you end up here? I remember you went out with Archbishop Charles...

Terry sighed: "It's a long story, it seems the Church Court still kept some things from you.

It's just right, the Divine Envoy sent me to welcome you.

Let's go to the Holy Mountain to see the Divine Envoy, and I'll tell you how I came to the Holy Mountain and converted under the Divine Envoy's leadership along the way."

Aloe clapped her hands: "That's great, Uncle Terry, wait a moment, I'll ride a horse over..."

"No!"

Terry waved his hand: "Let's not ride horses; we can walk together.

The Church Court sent you must also be to have you thoroughly understand the Holy Mountain, right?

Nothing can give you more understanding of the Holy Mountain than walking and seeing along the way."

Aloe was suddenly worried: "But Uncle Terry, the road ahead is a mountain path..."

"Hahaha, rest assured, the roads here are wider and more even than the main road of the Light Holy City.

Come with me confidently; I believe you'll encounter many things along the way that will overturn your understanding.

But it doesn't matter, ask me anything you don't understand.

All of this is brought by the Divine Envoy; they are miracles of Light!"
