All the contract girls want to marry me

The hearts of the Holy See, the hearts of the empire's top officials, and the hearts of the believers.

Looking at the people coming back one after another, she took a deep breath and looked straight ahead without looking back.

She knew very well that Matthew was beside her. As long as she turned her head slightly, she could see Matthew's encouraging eyes and hear his suggestions.

But she didn't look back.

The reason is simple, she wants to grow up, she wants to become someone who can help Matthew, instead of being a cripple who has to rely on Matthew as a crutch to walk all her life.

What Matthew needs is a helper, a life partner who can move forward side by side, not an incompetent giant baby who can't do anything.

She must grow, grow as quickly as possible.

Only in this way can she stand firmly by Matthew's side when the mass extinction comes and become his best helper.

Looking at the senior members of the Holy See kneeling in front of her, Diana raised her scepter and motioned for everyone to stand up.

"Everyone, a lot has happened today, but you still stick to your posts. Thank you for your efforts."

"Three wise men recommended me as the new pope. Do you have any objections?"

Although it is a question, Diana is not asking for everyone's opinion.

She was informing those present that from today on she was the pope.

The senior members of the Holy See who were kneeling under the stage exchanged glances with each other, feeling each other's inner shock.

Diana is indeed different from the former Pope Eugene.

After announcing the appointment, Diana solemnly said:

"New people and new things will naturally lead to new trends. In the past, our Holy See did not do well enough in many places, and it can even be said to be very bad. But it doesn't matter. Now that I'm here, some things should end."

"I'm here to announce a few things."

"First, from now on, the 13th volume of Canon No. [-] will be released from the ban. Secretary General, you are responsible for sorting out this volume of canon. After I review it, we will start printing and publishing it."

The entire audience was silent. No one expected that Diana would receive such big news just after she came on stage.

There is a huge difference in whether the scripture is in twelve or thirteen volumes.

The content of Volume No. 13 is even more than the first twelve volumes of the Scripture combined.

The thirteen volumes of the Canon cover all aspects of life. It is not so much a canon as an encyclopedia that provides guidance for believers in their lives.

After announcing this, Deanna continued to drop bombshells.

"Second thing, there are several personnel appointments that need to be announced."

"The first thing is the choice of referee."

Diana's eyes slowly swept across the audience, and finally locked on Bishop Under Armor who was huddled in the corner with a lonely expression.

He impeached Diana not long ago, and he directly doubted Diana's lifestyle.

It would be a good thing for such people not to be liquidated.

But Deanna decided to use him!

She said slowly: "Bishop Under Armor."

Under Armor's eyes were dull and he didn't hear anything. He finally reacted after being prompted by the person next to him. He quickly knelt down on one knee, but he didn't know what to say.

Just when he was worried, Diana said slowly: "Bishop Under Armor, you are not afraid of power and dare to denounce the darkness. You are the most suitable to be the chief referee!"

"But you have to pay attention to two things. First, you must have good evidence before making a complaint. Second, you must improve your personal strength as soon as possible. This is not an easy position."

Chapter 281: Liquidation or forgiveness?

The person who made the accusation publicly just now was Bishop Under Armor, and it was his words that kicked off today's bloody prelude.

According to most people's opinions, a guy like him who gave Diana eye drops will definitely be the first to be liquidated now.

Although Diana has outstanding abilities and good temperament, she is still a woman.

Women hold grudges the most.

But what Diana did made everyone confused.

Does she win people's hearts or is she magnanimous?

It didn't matter what was going on in Deanna's mind, but what she did.

As long as they are normal people, they will not convict based on their motives.

Bishop Under Armor was stunned by Diana's decision and became confused.

Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, Diana chuckled and asked: "Bishop Under Armor, don't you have the confidence to be a good judge?"

"I, of course I am confident!"

Someone threw a pebble, hitting Under Armor in the butt, waking up the guy who was still in a daze.

He quickly expressed his loyalty to Diana.

He's just straight-minded, not really stupid.

He knew very well that Diana might not forgive him, but it was only because he had a good reputation and needed to stabilize people's hearts that he made this arrangement.

But no matter what, he survived and was reused.

What pleased him even more was that there was nothing wrong with Diana.

She was still the perfect and holy person in his mind.

He was never angry because Diana and Matthew were so close. He just suspected that Diana was deceiving the Lord of Light and everyone.

Since Diana did not cheat, he would naturally offer his loyalty to her.

Under Armor is a typical fanatical believer who can't get rid of any sand in his eyes.

Because of this, he was used by Julius.

Seeing that Under Armor was so knowledgeable, Diana also let go of some of her grudges.

Although he is a little impulsive and confused, Bishop Under Armor's ability and moral character are still intact.

Reusing this person is only based on his ability, and more for the purpose of stabilizing people's hearts.

This sudden factional struggle severely damaged the vitality of the conservatives in the Holy See, and some neutrals also suffered losses.

Compared with the casualties, the greater damage is to the people's hearts.

People will wonder, what happened to the Holy See?

In less than an hour of the prayer ceremony, all three giants of the Holy See died, and Diana, who had just been a defendant, became the only female pope.

Can she do it?

Will there be a reckoning after she takes power?

Will she let them go, who were once enemies?

These questions haunt the minds of conservatives and centrists alike, making them uneasy.

According to Diana's original plan, there were quite a few conservatives who wanted to be killed.

But with the death of Pope Eugene, Diana had to seriously consider his will.

Even if she didn't consider the overall situation, just out of respect for the teacher, she had to try her best to fulfill his last wish.

It doesn't actually matter whether the name of the Holy See is changed. What matters is whether the organization can be transformed according to her ideas.

Complete demolition and reconstruction is of course the most pleasant and thorough way to change, but how many people will support it?

People's peace of mind, the Holy See has indeed come to the point where people are angry and complaining in recent years, and everyone is shouting for beatings, but this is all due to the perverse actions of Julius and others.

The reputation that the sages of the Holy See won back then is still there.

As long as they make changes, people are still willing to believe them.

Of course, the premise is that a makeover-like change must be made.

Deanna decided to make a radical change.

In the past, there were always many die-hards who stood up to obstruct reforms.

The deaths of Julius and Ulrich gave Diana the best reason to deal with these die-hards.

Anyone who is a die-hard on Diana's blacklist can be dealt with in the name of Julius's accomplice.

After figuring this out, Diana no longer insisted on disbanding the Holy See.

In addition to the mood of most people, she also has to consider the attitudes of the three sages.

If the Three Sages don't support her, how can she face the Twilight Sect's crazy counterattack?

Politics is like this, always reaching a compromise solution that is not completely satisfactory to all parties but is basically acceptable through constant compromise.

If the Holy See were to be dissolved, the three wise men would not agree to it. However, if the Holy See was to be reformed except for its name, most of the three wise men would agree.

Between opening the windows and lifting the roof, everyone knows how to choose.

Seeing that Under Armor, the guy who was supposedly hated by Deanna the most, was being reused, the others felt a little calmer.

Fortunately, Captain Diana did not retaliate wildly.

No, not the leader, she is the pope now!

Although there are still some procedures to go through to officially take office, no one dares to question her status.

She can gain the approval of the three sages, which is the greatest legitimacy.

The three sages have a very high status in the Holy See. As long as they nod their approval, they can change the pope.

Bishop Under Armor was promoted to referee, standing under Diana's left hand, becoming the first capable person under the new pope.

Diana looked around the audience, taking in everyone's reactions.

She knew very well that not all of these people might recognize her, let alone be willing to be loyal to her, but they were forced by the situation to give in temporarily.

It doesn't matter, she doesn't want most of the people here either.

Diana's eyes slowly passed over everyone.

Both supporters and opponents carefully maintained a calm appearance under this calm and sharp gaze.

Diana continued to announce calmly:

"Bring Saint Eurysia up here."

I'm coming!

The high-ranking clergy standing in the audience all knew that this was the highlight of the day.

After all, Bishop Under Armor had a neutral attitude before and was even leaning towards Diana, but today he jumped out and accused Diana of taking the wrong medicine.

Maybe it's out of the consideration of stabilizing people's hearts, maybe it's out of nostalgia for old feelings, so it's normal to forgive him.

But Yurishia is definitely not among them.

Because their father was killed, there has always been tit-for-tat between Urithia and Diana.

Especially today, Yurishia went into battle personally and participated in the conspiracy to deal with Diana.

The main leaders of this operation are Julius, Ulrich and Yurishia.

Julius and Ulrich were dead, and now only Yurishia was left.

Poor Miss Saint, dying peacefully is probably the best ending.

Some people sighed for Yurishia, while others were happy that important positions such as the Speaker and the Saint were vacant.

If Ulrich had not died, Bishop Under Armor would never have had the chance to take office.

Today's public coup is both a disaster and an opportunity.

Many people began to think about their personal relationship with Diana and their own value.

Looking at the expressions of everyone in the audience, Diana knew their mentality very clearly.

Seeing Yurishia being led up in a state of embarrassment with her hands tied behind her back, Diana said nothing and just looked at her silently.

Urithia sighed softly. Although she was still looking at Diana, her aura had long since lost.

She is meat on the chopping block now.
