Chapter 368: Starting from the Knights of Holy Judgment to build the school’s armed forces

"His Eminence, Archbishop Pana:

I have learned about the joint fight against demons, and I suggest that we establish a "Knights of the Holy Inquisition" based on the system of your sect's Protectorate Knights.

I have contacted Ambassador Sinvera to report to the Arcane Committee and the Royal Academy of Magic respectively. I look forward to your reply. Thank you. "

Lena Parish Cathedral, a magnificent and magnificent palace.

The elderly Archbishop Pana tremblingly opened the letter brought back by the messenger, read it carefully, and asked: "Did Mr. Roland say anything else?"

"We talked privately about the idea of ​​the 'Holy Judgment Knights' and found out that Lord Roland has a big structure and is trying to bring in all the protective knights from the Righteous God Church to form a joint law enforcement team.

But he aimed to use magical power to deal with evil spirits and undead creatures, and had no respect for faith. "

"Haha, Mr. Roland is a great benefactor who ranks high on the donation list of this diocese in recent years. He is also a favored person who has been approved by the oracle, and a person who has received the grace of the Lord.

I specially issued a diocesan edict announcing that the believers should learn from Lord Roland.

There is no doubt about his piety. "

The messenger's face turned pale when he heard the facts that Archbishop Pana said as if he were chatting about everyday things.

He quickly bowed and apologized: "I made a mistake."

Archbishop Pana nodded, but did not continue to beat the still immature young man, but began to think deeply.

Roland’s view of faith…

To be precise, the faith view of the entire Seris School is an issue that has been widely discussed by churches and diocesan bishops from all walks of life.

Because winning Roland to become a member of the church means that the faith of Reiner's world and the faith of the Seris School will belong to the Lord.

This is a great credit to the clergy.

Archbishop Pana has naturally worked hard for this.

His most proud and luckiest work should be the creation of "The Gift of the Goddess of Light" and the exchange of some secrets of the "Goddess Technique" from Roland.

But through contact, he also understood that Roland did not have any religious beliefs.

It is different from ordinary polytheism and pan-believers.

Roland holds a philosophy that favors Druidry.

But it is not biased towards the spirit of nature, but towards the unique combination of ancestor worship and popular will in the human world.

……

"This Roland is not old, but he is very powerful."

At the same time, Atrein's Arcane Committee was in the office.

Antonia and several committee members on duty also saw the proposal submitted by Roland.

In this proposal, Roland provided suggestions for leading the counterattack against the "quagmire plan".

At the same time, the framework previously proposed by Antonia should be improved, even expanded and supplemented, and the pattern improved.

What he seeks is not only the union of Atrein, Sinvela and the Church of the God of Light, but he also tries to win over other righteous churches to fight evil together.

"Logically speaking, churches that support polytheism should allow such organizations to exist, but it is not easy to unite believers from various sects."

An archmage on duty raised his concerns.

"You can think of Serisism as a pope. The doctrine it supports is naturally the coexistence of many gods and justification by faith.

Roland is a very smart guy. What he advocates is a more convenient and simple concept of pan-believers who can just 'praise the light'. He refines the concepts of the Holy Light from various parties and expands it to all lights, justice and holiness. explanation of.

As long as one believes in the Holy Light, he can be a believer in the Lord of Light, or he can be a believer in the Mother Earth, the God of Nature, and the God of Justice.

Even the sun gods and moon gods in other primitive religions...

They all share the source of faith. "

"Isn't this how the interdimensional consortium operates?"

"Will those gods... agree?"

Everyone couldn't help but be suspicious.

Antonia said nothing.

Because he wasn't very sure either.

but……

He was still willing to give Roland the chance to give it a try.

……

East Lena Mage Tower, Seris Academy.

Roland, who was nominally back on vacation, sat in his office again.

He still can't let go of the affairs here.

After Her Majesty the Queen took care of the little prince, she came to accompany him.

The two of them get along warmly, as if they have returned to the past time.

But Roland did not immerse himself in the gentle land, but discussed with her what he was going to promote.

This also requires that East Lena Mage Tower and Lena World be used as the headquarters of the Knights and the base for training.

Active cooperation from the authorities is required.

"Honey, is this really possible?"

After hearing this, Rosa couldn't help but feel a little worried.

“Indeed, because of the real existence of gods, it is somewhat difficult to do this kind of thing.

Conflicts in doctrine or philosophy of conduct are almost irreconcilable contradictions.

But conversely, it can also be said that it is much simpler than a demon-free world without gods. "

"why?"

“Because all these contradictions are actually concentrated on the god himself.

As long as the gods recognize me and the ideas of the Seris School, they will agree.

The next best thing is the combination of interests.

There are reform factions in each religion, and the patriarchs and diocesan bishops are all targets that can be fought for.

I have an idea, that is, to gather believers from all sects, in a place like the Pantheon, where everyone can gather together, hold hands and talk.

Everyone seeks common ground while shelving differences, rather than falling into endless disputes.

Let the things of the gods be given to the gods, and the things of the queen should be given to the queen...

Such harmony. "

Rosa listened to Roland's explanation as if opening the door to a new world.

Is this okay?

……

After Rosa left thoughtfully, Roland didn't pay much attention to her, but returned his attention to the matter at hand.

He is currently on vacation waiting for a job transfer. After temporarily paying attention to the progress of various projects such as the construction of the occult science major, the elemental furnace, and the strange weapons and puppets, he took the writing brush from the pen holder next to him and wrote a big letter on the table. The holy word.

"Atali, do you believe in light?"

"Ok?"

The female knight who remained in the room cast a confused look.

If she could use magic waves to reflect the shape of flames or runes like some high-level mages, it would definitely be in the shape of a question mark. "I mean, do you believe in the Holy Light?"

Roland said with a smile.

"How about I help you get those secret magical techniques from the Righteous God Church and let you transfer to the Paladin?"

Atali was surprised.

Paladins are high-ranking combatants of the church.

Although there are rumors that there are also people outside the sect who have independently cultivated themselves as paladins and mastered some magical abilities.

But just like most of the people who encounter adventure, there is no complete and stable career system, and there is no possibility of changing careers.

“Isn’t it possible to have faith in gods and obtain gifts?”

"We seem to have discussed similar topics before...

It is true that faith is required, but it does not necessarily mean faith in gods. It can also be kindness and justice in your heart. "

Roland corrected.

“The word ‘holy’ was first seen in oracle bone inscriptions. The shape of the glyph simulates a person listening with his ears upright. Its original meaning is close to cong, which refers to keen hearing.

By extension, it refers to a person who is proficient in a certain knowledge or skill and has achieved extremely high achievements. It also refers to a person who has the most noble character and the most extensive intelligence and knowledge.

Everything that is superb, beautiful, and related to gods and emperors is enough to be called holy.

What the Seris School and I stand for is intelligence, understanding, skill, and determination...

Become a saint! "

As he spoke, he condensed the talisman.

Constructed with magic power, the flame-like writing began to burn slowly.

The writing on the table floated up, slowly spreading and twisting in the air, blooming with a strong but not dazzling white light.

Atali looked at this scene in surprise.

She felt the warmth and holiness from it like the morning sun.

This feeling is a bit like the feeling of being sprinkled with holy water when you went to church with your family to worship when you were a child, looking at the statue of God and receiving blessings.

Although the church most of the time uses diluted pseudo-holy water to fool the people, it does contain some magical ingredients that can boost spirits and boost morale.

That can only be obtained by consuming magic power.

But now, Roland seems to have achieved a similar effect by just writing one word.

People who didn't know what was going on looked at it and thought he was really blessed by the gods.

"Don't be surprised, this is also a type of spell, but it is closer to the principles of arcane magic.

I used the divine art "Holy Light Art" as a prototype and created my own holy word formula constructed from the Syris Talisman. "

"Aren't divine arts and arcane arts... completely different systems?" Atali said with some confusion.

"Actually, that's not the case. Arcane art is a subject of analysis, induction and summary, and it is completely possible to imitate divine art.

Here I have relied on the results of the past "God Enlightenment Technique", but what I rely on at the bottom level is not a certain god, but the faith of all living beings on this land.

What the Seris School emphasizes is that Heaven sees itself and the people see it, and Heaven hears itself and the people listen.

Acting chivalrously and doing justice to benefit the people can also be a kind of belief. "

He told what he understood.

What Siris advocates is a secular, practical, and human-centered advanced faith that does not rely on any gods or powerful creatures for its existence.

If we have to say that it relies on something, it is dependent on ancestors and compatriots, which requires double certification of blood and culture.

Atali heard it half-understood, but she also understood that he seemed to be trying to reform these teachings and powers, transforming the power of talismans, gods, etc. that had been mentioned before, into the power of Siris!

……

Some time passed and the end of the year gradually came.

While all parties were preparing for many matters at the end of the year, Roland's initiative caused quite a stir among the senior leaders of the parties.

These things have nothing to do with public opinion, but they were eventually released to test the waters.

The senior management also wants to see how supportive the people below are.

The result was, as expected, arousing criticism from some conservatives.

Many conservatives can fight even members of their own church, and asking them to engage in such innovative ideas is simply more uncomfortable than killing them.

Fortunately, the power of the reformists is also not small, especially the Church of Light, which has entered the modernization stage and has evolved a new image like the "Goddess of Light", and is fully supportive.

If you ask why, of course it's because Roland once wrote "Ode to the Goddess of Light", which was a good flattering film...

Cross out the above.

The official statement is that the goddess of light favors Mr. Roland, praises and praises Mr. Roland for his wisdom, and gives him the power to defeat evil!

As for taking the initiative to invite the Church of the Goddess of Light to take the lead, through practical actions such as special funding and personnel contributions, we can help the church expand its influence and cultivate members of the sect.

There is no need to mention those vulgar things...

In the eyes of Antonia and others, Roland has indeed managed to balance and unite everyone through a series of proper operations that took into account the interests of all parties.

This is a sign of political maturity and can be of great use!

When the time came to the end of December, Antonia officially informed him: "The organization of the Holy Inquisition Knights has been established."

Roland took a look and found that all the native and vassal countries of Atrein and Sinvilla, as well as the Church of Light, the Church of the Earth Goddess, and the God of Nature Church, will recognize the "Knights of the Holy Inquisition". Reasonable enforcement power.

The regiment will have dedicated teleportation quotas and special permissions, and will be able to freely enter countries and fight cross-border operations with the parish...

As for the funding issue, Sinvela will temporarily bear about 75% of the share, and the rest will be raised by itself.

"It's finally done!"

Roland was very excited.

Immediately, he received another notice: "Because of Sinvera's reluctance... the Royal Academy will send a group of outstanding magic talents and combatants to visit the East Lena Mage Tower.

It’s up to you how to discover and make good friends with the talents among them, how to exclude spies, ears and eyes, and how to participate in the cause of exterminating demons. "

This is an important matter that Antonia has explained.

He has already favored the Roland and Seris schools in the deployment of high-level strategies.

The rest of the realization depends on Roland and the Seris School.

But before the Synvela delegation arrived, Roland set his sights on foreign elves.

Because of his relationship with the Gaussian elves, he also has some connections there.

"actually……

I want to take advantage of this opportunity to make full use of resources and funds to build a combat force that I can control. "

Although this kind of joint force from multiple countries and forces will inevitably be mixed with some gold-plated people or spies, if it can be passed down to the school, it will be a great wealth.

There is even a chance to monopolize the interpretation power of light and justice and become a "plane policeman" in the true sense...

Relevant training experience and true secret methods can also be transformed into the foundation for establishing the school's armed forces in the future.

This is Roland's true purpose that has not yet been announced to the population.

At present, it is becoming a reality step by step.

The progress is still very gratifying.

Under such a purpose, of course, the more shareholders participating and the more power is concentrated to themselves, the better.

　If you feel uncomfortable and it hurts when you cough, it’s okay if you don’t cough. Everyone should also pay attention to preventing sudden temperature changes due to seasonal changes.
