Witch Hunter from Entry to Unemployment

Chapter 29 The Saint Is Curious

When the pope is under a lot of pressure, especially now that the entire Holy See is in decline.

Not to mention the covetousness of the outside world, the inside is also full of worries.

As the seven archbishops who are the pillars of the Holy See, everyone has their own ideas.

I wanted to train several young people, but the best one chose to break with everyone and left this vortex 18 years ago.

The other one became the most special favored by the gods, the goddess' support in the world, but slowly lost himself.

The will of the gods will wear down the consciousness as a human being, and the more times you communicate with the goddess, the more serious the wear and tear on yourself will be.

The consciousness of the gods is not something everyone can bear.

Thinking of this, the Pope looked at the blindfolded girl beside him, and sighed softly again.

"Although the number of people is not large, they must be treated with caution. This blessing ceremony must be held beautifully."

"My lord Pope, although a total of four divinely favored ones were born, one of them still has some problems."

"What's the problem? Since he is the favored one chosen by the goddess, no matter what his birth or background is, there is no problem."

Locke smiled wryly, and spoke helplessly.

"Question, one of the family members this time is the child from Augustan's separated family, who is the only survivor of the incident that year."

There was silence in the hall, and the saint who had been standing there quietly raised her head and looked in the direction where Locke was sitting.

"Rosalind..."

She said the name softly, her tone full of nostalgia.

But her voice was very low, and other people in the hall were thinking about other important things, so they didn't hear her muttering.

"This……"

The Pope also had some difficulties. Others didn't know what happened back then, but he obviously knew it all too well.

The matter of the year can be suppressed, and the secrecy is carried out so well, the Holy See has naturally put in a lot of effort.

Also because of this, lost an outstanding young junior.

He still remembered Rosalind's disappointed look at that time. In the blink of an eye, 18 years had passed.

"Rosalind was right, but we were wrong. Beliefs mixed with many foreign objects have long since ceased to be pure."

Agatha said this suddenly, then closed her eyes, lowered her head and began to confess.

"Hey hey hey, this matter is not easy to handle. Let's not talk about repeated positions. After all, he was appointed by the goddess. How can the Augustman family explain it? This involves the face of the nobles. .”

Seemingly feeling that something interesting would happen, Ferris couldn't help but open his eyes wide, and opened his mouth with great interest.

"If the Augustman family insists on what happened back then, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble. Doing so is also in line with the thinking of their imperial power party."

Locke frowned, also looking very embarrassed.

The struggle between theocracy and imperial power has not stopped for hundreds of years.

In recent years, this struggle has intensified.

The imperial power did not want to completely overwhelm the divine power. What they wanted to do more was to send a few more of their own people to join the important departments of the Holy See to improve their voice.

But belief in gods should be kept pure and should not be mixed with these political struggles.

Although the Holy See itself is not very clean, it is a bit self-deceiving to say such a thing.

"Don't forget, there is also Rosalind. Haven't you ever thought about what would happen if Rosalind came back? There were a few guys back then, and it was fun to criticize her. Bishop Agatha, if I didn't Remember correctly, you were also one of those who condemned her back then, right?"

Thinking of certain scenes, Ferris grinned and showed a somewhat excited smile, while Agatha, who was named by him, still bowed her head and prayed softly, as if she didn't hear what he said.

"What is Rosalind thinking, has she contacted you?"

"No, the news about this divinely favored person came from Priest Richard of Blue Lake City. The child Rosalind seems to be the same as before."

"That's right, Rosalind doesn't seem like someone who would do that kind of thing. She is not keen on power, and her belief in the goddess is also unrivaled."

The pope nodded, and the expression on his face eased a lot.

"What needs to be worried is mainly the Augustusman family, or the thoughts of the entire aristocratic group behind the Augustman family. Whether it is using this child's identity to make a fuss and make the Holy See lose face, or to win over the other party and make him a A nail driven into the Holy See, it's all a troublesome thing."

"There is one more thing I can't understand. Why did the goddess... choose him to be her favored one? No matter how you look at it, the identity of this favored one should belong to Rosalind."

"Maybe the goddess is pure and wants to see our reaction."

"Don't lie!"

The Pope glared angrily and was a bit outspoken, but in his heart, he somehow felt that what the other party said made sense.

The goddess doesn't ask about world affairs, but it doesn't mean she doesn't know anything.

Naturally, she is always paying attention to the entire Starry Kingdom, which can be seen from the fact that the false god-favored person has become a regular.

Is it true that she was disappointed by some people's actions, that's why she chose such a person to become her favored person.

"Ask the goddess directly, and let her issue a clearer order."

Just when the Pope was deep in thought, the saint who had been silent all this time suddenly spoke.

"Is it... is it not good to pray to the goddess because of this kind of thing?"

The Pope still hesitated, while the Holy Maiden shook her head.

"The development of the Xingyue Holy See has been stagnant for a long time. The goddess may have other ideas. As a devout believer of the goddess, now is the time to listen to the will of the gods."

"That's true...then it's hard work, Her Majesty the Holy Maiden, we, the lost lambs, really need guidance from our lord."

The Pope nodded. In fact, he wanted the other party to talk to the goddess before, but he didn't have the nerve to speak.

Now that the saintess wants to communicate with the gods on her own initiative, she will naturally support her after being polite.

The saint nodded to the few people present, then turned and walked towards the hall behind.

There is a statue of the goddess. In front of this statue, her special favored person can communicate directly with the goddess.

She was very curious, she was really curious, what kind of magical power was in that young man, that former sinner.

Why, 18 years ago, Rosalind would choose to give up everything for that boy.

Now, why did Her Lady Goddess choose him again.
