This was the second time he went to Manya. This time, Ivan was more restrained. Or rather, he was forced to restrain himself.

Jiazhou Qingguang glanced at his master. When he saw the things in his master's hands, he blushed and immediately snatched them back.

Ivan was a little stunned. He was just about to look at the instructions when he was snatched away.

However, seeing that Qing Guang was no longer as reserved as she was at the beginning, he was in a good mood and didn't mind. Especially when he saw the honeyed blush on Qing Guang's face just now, he couldn't help but go over and ask, "Qing Guang, what's that?

Why don't you let me see it clearly? "

Jiazhou Qingguang paused and looked away unnaturally. "Master, there are still many things in the house that you haven't finished. You should restrain yourself."

Because of this sentence, Jiazhou Qingguang thought that there was no need to buy anything necessary and returned them all.

Suddenly, the three almost full backpacks quickly deflated.

Seeing that the things he picked were put back one by one by Qing Guang with a serious face, Ivan suddenly felt a little wronged.

It was rare that he was in the mood to go all out, but he was stopped.

"Pharmaceutical Research."

Ivan went over to comfort him.

"General, I think Prince Jiazhou's decision is right."

Unfortunately, Pharmaceutical Research was a very serious knife. Everything was based on practicality.

Ivan's attempt to comfort him was futile. He shrugged and returned to his usual expression. There was no trace of the pitiful look he had just now.

Jiazhou Qingguang had an epiphany. Master, you are too good at pretending!

"Master, do you want to buy more tools? I think there will be many new companions joining us in the near future."

Pharmaceutical Research pointed at a row of different patterns of daily necessities such as mouthwash cups and other daily necessities.

Ivan thought about the different styles that Qing Guang and Pharmaceutical Research had chosen and shook his head. "I think not. Everyone has different preferences. When the time comes, we can buy them together. It can be a kind of fun."

The Director of Pharmaceutical Research nodded silently. He had a better impression of the general.

Being an object for a long time, even if they could take human form, their way of looking at things was still different from humans.

For example, swords and sabers. They were loyal to their masters and obeyed orders. It was a matter of course for them to be ordered around. Who would care about the preferences of an item?

If the owner was unhappy and wanted to beat or scold them, they could only endure it. If they didn't like them, they would throw them away. It wasn't that they didn't receive gifts, but because they were slightly famous, most of them were given away.

The number of weapons that were disposed of and reforged was uncountable.

The Director of Pharmaceutical Research stole a glance at the General's side profile. His facial features were exquisite but not feminine. He was the best-looking human he had ever seen.

The huge amount of Spiritual Energy mixed with the strong Divine Aura made people feel very pressured. Therefore, at the beginning, the Pharmaceutical Research Department was very nervous. They felt that the General was a very serious and strict person.

Now, it seemed that this was not the case.

The general was very talkative, loved to laugh, and knew how to pretend to be pitiful. He also respected their preferences and was a very gentle person.

The Director of Pharmaceutical Research didn't know how the other Ben Pills were like. He suddenly felt lucky that he was able to come here.

His tense nerves gradually relaxed, and the Director of Pharmaceutical Research's face was no longer so stiff. Jiazhou Qingguang keenly noticed this change and was very happy.

Sure enough, Master was a good master. Although he also felt that Master was a little scary at first.

***

Jiazhou Qingguang and the new Director of Pharmaceutical Research went out. With the Double Vibrator Knife to support each other, and with Ivan's accurate identification of the enemy's location, Fox's Assistance didn't go with them this time. Instead, he stayed behind and dutifully assisted Ivan to familiarize himself with the government affairs as soon as possible.

Based on what Ivan discovered yesterday, Fox's Assistance explained in detail and added a lot of things.

Ivan listened and dozed off.

"Sir!

Are you listening carefully? "

Ivan waved his hand and didn't bother to hide his yawn. "Yes, yes, yes. It's just completing the tasks assigned by the government."

It was up to the Divine Inquisitor to decide whether to do the daily tasks or not. However, if the tasks assigned by the government were not completed, it would affect the quarterly audit. If the Divine Inquisitor was at the bottom for two consecutive quarters, they would be warned and their resources would be reduced. If the Divine Inquisitor was at the bottom for the third quarter, they would be stripped of their qualifications as Divine Inquisitors.

Fox's Assistance was very depressed. The Divine Inquisitor that he had recruited felt very lazy.

"Fox's Assistance, if the Divine Inquisitor is gone, what will happen to the Swords and Blades?"

"If they accept another Divine Inquisitor to take over, a new Divine Inquisitor will be arranged to take over. Otherwise, they will turn back into Swords and Blades and return to their original point of time, waiting for the next master to appear."

In other words, they would be initialized.

After chatting with Jiazhou Qingguang for the past two days, Ivan suddenly felt that the Swords and Blades were quite pitiful.

This was because Fox's Assistance said that a human's Spiritual Power would slowly weaken with age and body functions. When the Spiritual Power dissipated, they would naturally be relieved of their duties.

According to records, the longest tenure of an Divine Inquisitor was thirty-two years. The shortest tenure was less than a year.

It was fine if the time was short and the relationship was not deep. However, if it was more than ten years and the two parties had established a deep emotional bond, would they still be able to accept a new master?

It would be very difficult. After all, they had been given a human body and human emotions. They were no longer cold weapons that could not speak or move.

It was said that as long as they did not submit their resignation letter, the contract would be automatically renewed every year. The longer the tenure, the better the treatment when they returned to the modern world.

However, this was the first time Ivan heard that a human's Spiritual Power would disappear. After all, the concept of Spiritual Power did not exist in his world. Naturally, MP (Mana) would not disappear.

If Spiritual Power = MP, Ivan felt that unless he resigned, he would never be relieved of his duties. He suddenly felt that this was a trap.

These past few days, Fox's Assistance had been pretending to be pitiful and saying nice things. Ivan already knew that it would not let him go back. However, it was good that he did not go back. He did not have to worry about the endless documents, and he did not have to worry about the possibility of inheriting the position of chairman in the future.

However, he could not go to the frontlines or enter dungeons. It was really boring to stay here every day. Especially now that there were so few people, he did not even have someone to talk to.

"Sigh —"

Ivan sighed deeply. He glanced at the cross and felt that it was starting to rust.

"Actually, it's not like there are no Divine Inquisitors going to the frontlines." Fox's Assistance wagged its tail and began to spread the bait.

"Oh?" Ivan bit the bait.

Fox's Assistance continued, "First of all, you need merit points. If you are recognized by the government, more privileges will be granted, and the restrictions will naturally be reduced."

Ivan frowned. He did not like being a cadre.

"Of course, work such as reporting will be done by us, Fox's Assistance, and the men of swords and sabers."

Fox's Assistance's frown relaxed. It keenly caught this detail and gently wagged its tail.

Well, it seemed to have found the right way to communicate with the Divine Inquisitors.

"I have heard reports from my predecessors. Many powerful enemies are a headache for the government, so every year, outstanding Divine Inquisitors will be selected to assist in the work."

Ivan looked at Fox's Assistance without blinking.

"Sir, you might as well increase your merit points first. If you really can't do it, when you resign, I believe that with your outstanding merit, the Government of the Hour will find a way to let you return to your original world."

If the merit points were increased, it would not be its job to persuade the Divine Inquisitor to continue working.

Ivan tilted his head and thought that it was feasible.

"As for now, if the Divine Inquisitor is bored, you can learn how to control your spiritual power."

Every Divine Inquisitor could more or less go to the frontline, it was just a matter of how long they could stay. Even the current Divine Inquisitor, who was first on the comprehensive list, could stay for more than an hour, and it would be more accurate to sense the enemy's aura when they were in the same space and time.

Who knew that this Divine Inquisitor was a weirdo. Its powerful spiritual power was directly rejected by space and time.

"Well, after all, I don't want to blow up the forging room again." Ivan compromised. "Then how do I control it?"

Fox's Assistance widened its eyes, and so did Ivan.

"… This, that, maybe you can communicate with other Divine Inquisitors?"

Ivan rolled his eyes. "I don't even know half of them. Who do you want me to communicate with?"

Fox's Assistance lowered its head. It was also newly appointed, and it did not have any connections with other Divine Inquisitors.

"By the way, sir!"

Fox's Assistance suddenly raised its head excitedly. "The quarterly assessment will be held next month. Although the newly appointed Divine Inquisitors will not participate in the first quarter, they can go and observe. Maybe they can get to know other Divine Inquisitors."

Fox's Assistance had already made up its mind. It was going to create a little accident to attract the attention of some of the famous Divine Inquisitors on the ranking list. Maybe they could befriend them and get some advice or something.

Ivan rubbed his arms when he saw Fox's Assistance's increasingly perverted smile.

It felt a little creepy.

The flashing red dot on the map suddenly disappeared. It was probably Jiazhou Qingguang and the others who had completed their mission.

Ivan simply left Fox's Assistance, who was up to no good, and went to the entrance to welcome them.

Two Zhen, who had returned to the Homeworld, saw Ivan standing at the door from afar. They paused for a moment and quickly ran over.

"Master, we're back."

"Welcome back."

Ivan looked at the two of them. Although they were covered in dust, there was no sign of injury.

"General, sorry to keep you waiting. We also brought back a new companion."

Ivan took over and woke him up. This newcomer was younger than the previous Pharmaceutical Research.

"It's me, Jinjian!

I'm the Guardian Sword of Righteousness!

How is it? Awesome, right? "

Righteousness?

Who is it? I've never heard of it. Is it awesome?

Ivan clicked on the details of the equipment and began to confirm the content.

Jinjian's appearance was particularly lively. Before it could see what its master looked like, it was scared by the holy aura and trembled.

Its master was in a daze again. Jiazhou Qingguang sighed in its heart. It then went to say hello and said a few good words for its master.

Jinjian blinked its eyes. It was a sword that was offered in the temple to pray to the gods and Buddhas. It was very fond of the holy aura. It was just that its master's aura was too strong. As a spirit, it was instinctively afraid.

Now, after listening to the explanation of the two seniors, Jinjian quickly recovered and threw itself into Ivan's arms.

"Master, master, do you like Tengu?

I'm a Tengu!

A bouncing Tengu ~ "

After checking the attributes, Ivan, who had recovered from the shock, had a question mark above his head. Tengu?

Is it a type of dog?

So Ivan nodded. His Great White was a canine. Of course, it liked dogs.

Ivan whistled, and the Great White ran over happily. Jinjian's eyes lit up when it saw it. It cheered and pounced on it. "Wow, it's so furry and cute."
