"Blasphemy! This is the greatest blasphemy against our Lord!" Pope Roy said, slamming the letter in his hand to the ground.
The letter was made of fine parchment, and the words on it were very heroic, but the content was a bit unbearable. When Roy saw it, he became very angry.
"Sir, please take care of yourself!" Bill on the side quickly persuaded, and Roy took a long breath and sat back in the chair. He lowered his head and looked at the letter again, and suddenly sneered, "He actually wanted to ask the saint to crown him and hold an enthronement ceremony! He thought he could hide it from our Lord if he committed such sins as killing his father and brother. !"
As early as the third prince of the Daisy Principality wrote a letter and sent it to the Holy See, explaining in detail to the Holy See "why the old king died of illness" "if he could obtain the position of crown prince" "the second prince accidentally fell from his horse and died" "the eldest prince was able to show mercy. Before being able to return to the fiefdom, but unfortunately encountering bandits and dying on the road," all the priests, paladins and wizards in the Papal State heard the voice of God's wrath.
God was angry at the despicable crimes of the three princes and wanted to punish him by drowning the Daisy Principality in the ocean. Fortunately, the Saint stepped forward in time and led the Pope and the Duke in praying together, asking the Lord to forgive the lives of many believers in the Daisy Principality, and to be willing to use God as a sword to punish the arrogant heretic.
God thought for a moment and agreed.
So now everyone in the Papal State can't help but think about how to punish the blasphemer in order to satisfy their master.
Roy looked at the letter for a while, and finally looked back. He asked the bishop sitting in front of him: "Bill, has the specific matter of punishment been resolved?"
But Bill shook his head and said with a wry smile: "The Holy Lady is still at odds with the Duke, and the decision has not been finalized yet."
"Oh?" Roy raised his eyebrows when he heard this, then thought about it and said, "Then let's go over and listen to the opinions of the two adults."
After coming out of the Pope's private audience room and walking along the corridor paved with red marble, it didn't take long for the two of them to reach their destination, Duke Raul's office.
Before the attendant outside the door had time to report, controversial voices came from inside.
"My Lady Saint, I will not agree to your suggestion! You are risking your own life!" Raul, who had always acted calmly, roared loudly at this time.
"Sir, the purpose of our trip is not only to punish the blasphemer for God, but also to promote His will for God and to warn the increasingly arrogant kings for Him!" However, Katniss remained unmoved. He just yelled back in the same tone, "We want them to clearly understand that all the land in this world belongs to our Lord, and they are just temporarily guarding it for God"
The sound of the door opening sounded, interrupting Katniss's words. She immediately stopped talking and just looked at Raul who was also silent. Katniss noticed that the visitors were Roy and Bill, so she bowed, and then took the time to look back at Lilim, who was sitting in the corner of the room, yawning.
My sister asked me to speak for her.
The little girl was keenly aware of this, but she pretended not to know. She just lowered her eyebrows and pretended to be sleepy, but she kept complaining in her heart: Sister Katniss, don¡¯t look at me, little Lily doesn¡¯t know what to do!
From Lilim¡¯s heart, of course she is willing to help her sister who is always taking care of her. However, she also felt that Katniss's proposal was indeed a bit risky. Among other things, the three long-range spells cast by the Lich and the Death Angel made her still frightened now, and she felt that Master He also takes good care of his sister, so he probably wouldn't be happy to have her act like that.
Lilim doesn¡¯t help each other, and Katniss is helpless.
In the end, the pope, who had just arrived, calmed things down with a smile, "What do you two think? Can you tell me, maybe I can also give some opinions."
Katniss and Raul were arguing and couldn't help but look at each other and thought that was a solution. So starting from Raul, everyone talked about their own plans.
Raul's plan is actually very simple. He just wants to ask the Papal State to immediately announce the crimes committed by the three princes and make them known to the world. Then he will lead his troops north and fight all the way to the capital of the Daisy Principality, giving the blasphemer his due. punishment.
However, although this plan is simple, it is also detailed. Raul has spent several years in the East and has rich experience in leading troops. He has listed detailed marching routes, key points to be conquered, and logistical supplies in the plan. .
Anyone with a little bit of military experience will feel that it is feasible after looking at the opportunity.
Compared with Raul's plan, Katniss's idea is somewhat "whimsical"Well, she does not suggest raising troops directly, but is willing to bring a few holy warriors and priests directly into the royal capital on the grounds of canonizing the blasphemer, and then on a ceremonial occasion in front of the visiting princes and envoys from various countries. , announced the many crimes committed by the third prince, and then punished him to warn the world.
Not only does this plan sound risky, but because it is based on an unknown ceremony, there are many uncertain factors. Therefore, Katniss cannot provide as detailed information as Raul. She can only emphasize that she should adapt to the situation according to the situation at that time
"That's it" Roy pondered after hearing this.
Intellectually, he is very much in agreement with Raul's plan, but Katniss's tough attitude makes him hesitate and cannot express his position easily. Everyone in this room knows that Katniss is Feng Feiyang's favorite girl. Therefore, it is up to the Pope to speculate whether there is God¡¯s intention in her plan.
¡°Furthermore, Roy also knows that Katniss can invite divine messengers, so his concern for Katniss¡¯s safety is far less intense than Raul¡¯s.
He tugged at his beard and couldn't help thinking, but suddenly thought of the invitation he just saw. He couldn't help but asked Katniss tentatively: "My Lady, you made this plan because you received the invitation from the other party. ?¡±
Katniss shook her head, but said, "Although not, I think if I am willing to go, they will not refuse."
It is indeed true. It is a great honor for any king to be crowned by the Holy Son But because of this, the girl does not dare to bring too many people with her, for fear of arousing the other party's vigilance¡ª¡ª Although, the possibility of this is actually very small.
So Roy immediately became happy. He smiled and told everyone about the invitation sent by the third prince, and then said: "With the other party's numerous requests, it is not impossible for the saint to reluctantly go But for the safety of the saint - as you all know now, the Daisy Principality is not very safe, so it is only natural that we let many paladins, priests and saints go together to protect her! "
After he finished speaking, Katniss smiled, but Raoul was a little anxious. Just as he was about to speak, the Pope said again: "But Holy Lady, among us, only the Duke is an expert in fighting, so I miss him." There is some truth to your opinion. Your previous plan was indeed a bit reckless" He turned back and asked Raul, "Sir, let's consider the worst possible scenario. How many warriors of God can we completely protect the saint? safety?"
Raul understood now. He thought for a moment and then gave the number.
Roy nodded after hearing this, "Although there are slightly more people than I thought, I don't think the blasphemer will become suspicious because of this."
With the Pope's support, Katniss's proposal is passed. However, Roy still reminded Katniss three times, asking her to pay attention to her own safety and not to act recklessly. He also asked Raoul to take some chances on what would happen that day, so as not to catch them off guard if something unexpected happened.
Finally, Roy asked Bill to secretly detain the diplomatic envoys of various countries in the Papal State, restricting their freedom of movement, and then told Katniss and the others all the ins and outs of the trip before they set off. Understood.
It must be made clear to them that the purpose of the saint¡¯s doing this is out of mercy and to promote God¡¯s justice!
