Not a Witch

Since Frostrose and Crancia were established successively, the social structure and rights topics that were once ignored by people have been discussed intensely in recent years.People in other places may have little news, low education, and few words, but in a church where everyone is literate and proficient in history and classics, the views of all parties are lively and fierce.

Everyone often discussed with each other, and later became faintly divided into several factions.

After more and more information about Frost Rose was introduced to the sanctuary, many priests gradually agreed. They claimed to be the representatives of angels in the world, and they had extraordinary powers, which meant they were higher than ordinary people.

And the main group of people who agree with the hierarchical society theory is concentrated in the faction of Archbishop Sibis.

As for the Grand Leader of the Knights of the Holy Gun, Otis, he agrees with the view that those with merit are superior. No matter who they are, as long as they have merit, they are superior to those who have no merit at all. This is the point of view of their school .

And Binnes has never made a statement. Although Lorraine Hill feels that she may be inclined to equality for everyone, she has actually kept silent because she has no strong arguments.

The rain is coming and the wind is all over the building.

Lorraine Hill sighed in his heart, watching the scene of confrontation and noise between the two sides on the opposite mountain, and then a group of knights on horseback came from the other side of the mountain road. It is the long-known Knights of the Holy Lance on the mainland.

"Silence! Silence!"

The group of knights drove the two sides with torches, separating the two groups of people.Then a knight riding a tall horse and wearing dark gold and silver engraved armor came slowly, and the scene gradually became quiet.

Chapter 120 Three Thoughts and Decisions

"Grand Master Otis, he's actually here."

Whispering voices came from the crowd, quite surprised by the arrival of the leader of the Knights of the Holy Gun.Although the current scene is a bit chaotic, it is not a big deal. After a while, the Ten Sword Palace will mobilize people to disperse the troublesome priests, and then talk to each other to gradually eliminate this matter.

But now that the head of the regiment appears in person, the nature of the matter will become official, and it will not be so easy to suppress it.

"Why are you making noise here, disturbing the order of the holy mountain?"

Captain Otis had a serious face, and his sharp eyes swept across slowly. The people present did not dare to look directly into his eyes, and lowered their heads.

The scene suddenly fell into silence, and after a while, a priest explained with a slightly trembling voice.

"We have suffered injustice. I think, I want to ask for an explanation and fairness." He looked nervously at this man like a lion.

"What injustice have you suffered?" Otis' voice was as calm as a mountain.

"We have been..." After that, he began to explain slowly, and some companions around him gradually began to speak, helping to add.

The meaning is probably that a group of pastors who had similar grades back then, because of the different churches and regions they were assigned to, had a significant gap in status and treatment over the years. They worked harder and paid more, but they did not receive the corresponding respect and respect. Instead, they were ridiculed and looked down upon by the pastors in those rich areas.

"Why is it that we donate to the church in the most difficult place and fulfill our responsibilities for the peace of the world, but we have to suffer such humiliation!"

"Mud priest, sooty priest, country boy, shabby guy, etc., these are the titles they put on us. No matter how long we work and how much we pay, the chance of promotion will never come to us. A group of people talked and talked, recalling the hardships of these years, and some even shed tears, which made many onlookers around couldn't help feeling moved.

"Your efforts and hardships are seen by the church and will always be remembered." Otis' tone softened slightly at this time.

"But your behavior is not good after all. In this way, everyone is like this. What is the order? It is absolutely not advisable to distribute according to trouble."

"Go back first, I believe that Ten Swords Palace and the church will give everyone an explanation for this matter."

The pastor who was extremely strict in the past showed such soft feelings at this moment, which immediately moved the group of priests, so they all admitted their mistakes, saying that such an excessive parade should not destroy the order and peace in the holy mountain.

Finally, under the arrangement of this group of holy spear knights, they returned to rest in the guest residence outside the Holy Flame Palace, which was the residence of the branch church when it came to the headquarters.

After watching the group of people disperse and disappear into the night, the guards of Ten Swords Palace frowned slightly.Today's incident was really sudden. They had just received the news and rushed over. They didn't expect it to develop like this.

"What to do, captain?" A guard next to him asked.

"Go and report to Master Sibis first, this matter does not seem to be simple." The golden armored guard put away his weapon and led the people towards the Palace of Ten Swords at a fast pace.

---------

After the incident on the other side of the mountain ended, the crowd dispersed and slowly returned to silence. In the restaurant under the Holy Flame Palace, seven students from Emenes were also having dinner happily.

Compared with other palaces, the restaurant here seems to have more meat, which greatly satisfies the lackluster taste of this group of students recently.

"Come on, have another drink." Several boys drank a little, blushing and thick neck.

"Dry!"

Although the language and culture are completely different, the scene on the wine table is always so similar. Lorraine Hill looked at the crowd in front of him, shook his head slightly, and then turned his gaze to the small wine glass at hand.Among them is light red fruit wine, which seems to be brewed from a kind of red plum on the holy mountain. The alcohol content is not high, and the taste is sour and sweet.

She rarely drank alcohol, but this was a rare gathering, and she didn't want to be too independent, so she ordered a glass of fruit wine.

"Rossier, Boli, come on, let's have a drink too."

Jelica held a large wine glass and wanted to clink glasses with the two people beside her.She seems to be a good drinker, and it seems that she used to drink a lot.

"I can only drink a little, or I will get dizzy." Boli looked at the liquid left in her glass with a little fear, as if it was extremely unpalatable and bitter.

"Okay, okay, I won't make things difficult for you. Rocher, how much you can drink, if you can't, you don't have to force it." Jelica turned around and looked at the silver-haired girl who was holding a wine glass in a daze.

"It's nothing, this is okay." There was a hint of a smile in the girl's voice, and then the girls touched the cups again, and then slowly drank the liquid in it.

Compared with baijiu with high alcohol content, most of the wines in the Western Continent are not too high alcohol content, and there are not many merchants who use distillation technology to make wine, but alchemists often use distillation to extract some substances.

Just like this, the seven of them ate and chatted until the night darkened.

"It's getting late, let's end the party today." After the food on the table was finished, several people were almost done drinking, so it was time to say goodbye.

"I'll go back with Rothschild and Bolly, you boys can take care of each other by yourself." Jelica said first, she didn't want to help these drunk boys, and she didn't want her two friends to help them.

"Well then, be careful on the road."

Hai Sen nodded to the three of them, and then walked out of the restaurant slowly, one by one in each hand, like a rare strongman.The rest of the people held each other's hands and walked out of the restaurant slowly.

"Let's go too. Don't look at Boli, don't worry about them. Among us, except you, the strength is above Sequence 5. There will be no safety problems on the road."

"Well, although...but...you are right, but I always feel offended." Boli muttered a few words unwillingly, and then was pulled away by Jelica with a smile up.

The three of them returned along the mountain road. Since they were relatively awake and did not need support, they walked briskly and slowly disappeared into the night.

Palace of Ten Swords, inner palace of flowing water.

Sibbes was eating, and the large table was covered with swept dishes, and his appetite seemed to have been good.

belch--

The potbellied man finally put down the tableware in his hand and stretched out his hands.The attendant at the side came over immediately, wiped his hands with a wet towel, and then asked people to clean up the table.

"It seems a little noisy outside today, let the captain on duty come in and report." He lay on a comfortable armchair, closed his eyes, and let the nun behind him massage his head, speaking in a soft voice.

"Yes, Lord Sibis." Then an attendant went to inform the captain of the guard who had been waiting at the door for a long time.

"Master Sibbis..."

The captain saluted first, and then slowly reported what happened in the Holy Flame Palace this evening.

After he finished his report, Sibis did not respond immediately, but was quiet for a while.

"I see. Later, you and the few people who were present at that time will write down the details of the time and put them in the palace, and someone will analyze them slowly."

"Yes, Lord Sibbis."

"Well, then you go down first." He raised his fat hand and waved it slightly, letting the people on both sides exit the palace, leaving only a nun who helped him massage and a personal attendant.

"Odis...heh, when did you become so cunning." He seemed to sigh something, and then asked the two people beside him.

"Tell me, is he acting with good intentions and impartiality, or does he have ulterior motives?"

"Of course there are ulterior motives." The attendant at the side said so, as if he was happy to have the opportunity to express himself.

"Oh, then analyze and analyze it for me." A smile appeared on Sibis' face with closed eyes.

"If the original normal development is followed, our guards from the Ten Swords Palace will rush to disperse this group of priests who disturbed the order, and then detain a few leaders, and ask them slowly for a few months. When the heat of the matter passes, give them It’s a good thing to pass away.”

"But now is the critical moment of the pope's election. As a result, although he helped us stop the incident, no matter how we follow up, we will be somewhat passive."

"If we continue to ignore this matter and let it develop, the stigma will not be removed, and this will greatly affect the recent general election."

"But if we try to solve it, the situation will be worse. Finding mistakes is much easier than solving the problem. A little carelessness will lead to greater conflicts. More people will see the benefits and think that our Ten Sword Palace It’s easy to bully, and then, like this group of pastors, it caused conflicts over the years one by one.”

"Originally, we could force this matter to be suppressed, but after this group of holy gun knights appeared, we would be stopped by them if we went to arrest people near the Holy Flame Palace. The public will greatly damage the prestige of the past."

He analyzed happily, talking more and more, as if he was proud of his intelligence.

clap clap-

Sibis clapped his palms and said, "Very good, yes, indeed. But do you have any good countermeasures?"

"This..." The excited attendant just said suddenly stuck with the owner, and couldn't think of any good ideas for a long time.

"Then keep quiet and don't ask questions if you can't solve them. No matter what kind of organization it is, wherever it is, there must be all kinds of problems and problems. If you can see it, but can't find effective solutions The only way is to pretend not to see it."

"The thing that gives people hope and then takes it away is the most hated thing."

"Yes, Master Sibis." The attendant who made Zhang Yang just now fell silent and stopped talking.

Sibis leaned on the recliner, enjoying the cool in the courtyard of the Flowing Water Palace. He slowly played with the gadgets in his hands, his eyes were slightly fixed, as if he was thinking about some problems.

It wasn't until late at night that he signaled for someone to call in the captains of the guards outside the palace. After giving some soft instructions, he went back to take a bath and then went to rest.

After returning to the place where she lived, Bolly went to bed early, while Lorraine Hill sat at the desk after taking a shower, holding a pen in his hand, and writing under the dim light of a candle. paddling something.

As the pope's election approached, she also began to consider her future choices, whether to participate in it and interfere, or continue to keep a low profile and not participate in this incident.

It is foreseeable that once you participate, there is definitely a risk, either your identity will be exposed, or it will trigger a conflict between the two countries.

But it would be inappropriate not to interfere at all. If Sanctuary favored Frost Rose, Clancia would face an extremely difficult opponent in the future.

The church has its own branches all over the mainland, with a good reputation and a considerable popular base. If it is done right, it will not only have to face hundreds of thousands of extraordinary people, but also have to deal with surging public opinion. These will become huge instability Factors that shake the foundation of the country.

It seems that you still have to get involved, at least you have to choose a pope who remains neutral.

Lorraine Hill stroked the wet hair around his ears, felt a bit of coolness from the night wind blowing through his body, and drew four names on the paper, 'Charente', 'Odis' and 'Sibes' Beignece'.

According to its usual behavior and rumors, 'Sibis' is not a good partner for Crancia, and there is a huge gap in the values ​​​​of the two sides.

Although 'Odis' has a strict style of work on weekdays, he is the kind of person who attaches great importance to his own interests, and joining forces with him will be very troublesome and unpleasant.He only stands on the side of interests, and he is very ambitious. For Clancia and Frost Rose, he is not a good ally.You can only choose him when you have no choice.

'Charente' himself is too mysterious and powerful, and people from both sides dare not easily win over and contact them, lest they feel bad. Maybe he is more loyal to the mission and righteousness of the church, and using small tricks in front of him will only get his own way disgrace.

The only one left, who seems to be easy to talk to, is 'Pines'. She is not bad in her own strength, has a kind personality, and has a group of loyal and close supporters.

But since they have become Sequence Nine, their mind and wisdom are not easy to exist, and they are not people who can be easily coaxed and persuaded.

If you really want to win over this priestess, you have to show your sincerity, otherwise it is useless.

Lorraine Hill drew a circle on Benesse's name with a pen, and then wrote some information beside it to aid thinking.

'Angel Sequence 9', 'Moon of Water Dew and Golden Branches', 'Priest of the Aquarius Palace', 'Emenas Mentor', 'Intellectual Preference', 'Can Communicate', 'Calm and Wise', 'Clear Public and Private', 'Know Your Identity'' live in a vortex tower'
