A prosperous city, with streets intertwined and houses lined up.

The lights lit up in the city illuminate the entire city, leaving no difference between night and day.

This is a royal city, and the castle located in the middle of the city illustrates this.

The towering castle is like a top that touches the sky, standing on one side of the earth, making everyone who sees it unable to help but sigh at its grandeur.

It is like a building that is comparable to the sky. Sometimes people can't help but wonder whether they can take off the stars hanging in the sky if they stand at the highest point of this castle.

Of course, this can only be a fantasy. The highest point of the castle is where the queen lives.

No one can go up there except the Queen. Even the waiters who deliver food and clean can only enter and exit within the specified time, and must undergo strict inspections before entering and leaving.

The city is brightly lit and prosperous, and the highest point of the castle is only silence.

The windows of the room at the highest point are half open, and you can see the lights of the whole city and the endless stars in the sky through the window. This is definitely the most beautiful place in the city at night. Unfortunately, no one can appreciate it.

There is no other sound beside the window except the sound of the wind.

Bright lights illuminate every corner of the room, with luxurious blankets on the floor, and crystal magic crystals on the top. The furniture made by palace craftsmen is beautiful and firm.

The interior is very spacious, so spacious that it can be said to be empty. Apart from various exquisite furnishings and utensils, there is only one woman sitting in the room.

The woman was wearing a dark blue long skirt with a small hem, wrapping her slender legs that were overlapping each other. Her body was slightly tilted and she sat on a sofa with great decoration.

A red cloak was covered with her shoulders, and the white soft fur on the collar of the cloak gently covered her half-exposed shoulders and neck.

He had long golden hair, simply wrapped around the back of his head, and a golden crown was worn on it. The crown was carved with the most exquisite patterns of the country, and a bright red gem was inlaid in the center.

Her name is Hillman, and she is the queen of this country, the youngest queen ever, and the strongest master of the royal power in this country ever.

In her hands, this country became the most powerful country among the four countries in the mainland in just a few years. Her extremely aggressive character and overly tough political skills made her famous in various countries, so that some people began to call her royal power the king of Lionheart.

However, in her opinion, this was just because the rest of the people were too weak.

At this time, the queen was sitting lazily on her seat, with one hand leaning against her face, lowering her slender eyelashes, playing with a black stone in her hand.

A stone with black all over the body is polished very regularly and is a standard cube. The stone is carved with some patterns, which are very fine and cannot see clearly the pattern of the patterns, and it is difficult to understand how it was carved.

Today an old minister from the kingdom told her that her father had given him something before his death.

When she became a real queen, she was asked to go to the last room of the Kingdom Treasure House, where a gift from her father left her.

Perhaps the old minister felt that she had become a real king, so he told her this instructions and asked her to go to the last room of the kingdom treasure house.

From childhood to adulthood, Hillman had only the impression of his father's strict and harsh discipline. In her memory, the father only gave her a gift, that was the throne of this kingdom.

With a complicated mood, Hillman came to the last room of the treasure house.

In the room, she saw a small box. After opening the box with the keys given to her by Lao Chen, she found that there were only two things in the box.

A letter, and this inconspicuous black stone.

The letter was not sealed, and there were only a few short sentences on it.

“Leave it to my dear daughter:

You can come here to show that you have become a king, and I am proud of you. This is the last gift I have left to you, and when you need it, use it, and it will bring you a loyal and powerful servant.

But, I sincerely hope that you will never need to use it.

Your father.”

Hillman didn't know what to say. This might be the first time her father communicated with her in such a tone, but in this way.

She picked up the black stones in the box, and then a message suddenly appeared in her mind.

I don’t know where it came from, nor who left it, but the message that suddenly appeared in her mind the moment she picked up the stone.

"Are you willing to summon the apostles at the cost of your sin?"

The queen stood in the treasure house with the stone for a long time, and then slowly put it away.

···

"Apostle?"

In the room, Hillman held the black stone in his hand and muttered to himself lightly.

The voice once again appeared in her mind through the black stone.

"Are you willing to summon the apostles at the cost of your sin?"

Hillman turned the black stone and chuckled.

"At the cost of sin, Father, what is this gift you left me?"

However, she seems to meet this so-called summoning requirement now, and she also just needs this summoning.

Just like destined in the dark, she raised the stone and spoke in front of her.

"Summon, at the cost of this war."

Since it is said that summoning needs to be at the cost of a sin, the sin of war should be great enough.

Thinking of herself as if she was self-deprecating, Hillman smiled calmly.

As her voice fell.

A voice sounded in the dark.

“The contract is signed, and you will have control of the apostle, and the apostle will complete the tasks you entrust until the contract is over.”

The stone turned into slag powder and suddenly dispersed. At the same time, a thick black mist gushed out from the original stone and condensed into a ball in front of her. Countless dark thick fog gathered in the air and intertwine.

Hillman looked at the black fog in the air. The stone seemed to be able to summon something she knew from an unknown space.

But there was no fear of the unknown in her eyes, but a little expectation.

Is this the gift you left to me?

Father.

As time went by, perhaps just a few breaths passed, and in the queen's sight, the thick black fog gradually gathered into a human form.

The human figure was wearing a wide black robe, and the whole body was wrapped in a layer of black matter. Only the outline of the human figure could be seen.

Until the gathering was completed, the human figure fell from mid-air, stood in front of the queen, and slowly knelt down on one knee.

A dull and hoarse voice rang.

"The apostle came in the first place according to the call and waited for the sending."

At the same time, Hillman could clearly feel that she had obtained a contract, through which she could control the other party's behavior and life and death at any time, which means that as long as she had one thought, the apostle in front of her could dissipate.

Moreover, the contract also made her feel what the apostle was thinking, which made this apostle have almost no secret to her.

The incredible summoning technique. Looking at the "people" in front of me were shrouded in black, Hillman thought.

There was a simple message about the apostle in her mind, which briefly explained part of the apostle's power.

Very powerful. This is her first evaluation of this apostle. If she wants to evaluate it in her way, the apostle's ability is at least as good as a saint. You should know that her country, as the strongest country among the four countries on the mainland, only has three saints.

However, in her message, the apostle seemed to have some special abilities.

It's a terrible existence, isn't it?
