"Who are you?" Harvey asked, turning to look at him, lacking not only the warmth of a priest, but also a hint of belligerence.

"Lord Harvey, allow me to introduce myself, I am Santiag, the current Presiding Judge of the Church of Light. Santiago saluted Harvey.

Harvey was confused, because this etiquette was not in accordance with the rules, whether in terms of status or his own strength, this person called Santiago was higher than Harvey, and there was obviously a reason for his humble attitude.

"You're so gracious, Judge Sir. I'm just an ordinary magician, and I can't afford to be so polite to you. ”

Reach out and don't hit the smiling person, let alone the other party is so humble.

"Respect for you is deserved. Santiago continued to keep his profile low.

Seeing Santiago like this, Harvey was going to get straight to the point, but the excessive humility already made him feel uncomfortable

"Lord Inquisitor, you came here before I arrived at the Sacred Mountain, and you called me out in advance, I don't know what kind of advice you have?" This is what Harvey wants to know most at the moment, after all, the Judge of the Church of Light usually only gives orders on the Sacred Mountain, deciding that those betrayers or heretics should be wiped out.

"Lord Harvey, it turns out that my recklessness, some things may not be suitable for discussion on the sacred mountain, what do you think?" said Santiago, with an attitude that you understand.

"Oh?" Harvey could sense that this Santiago was definitely a clever guy. At the same time, he thought that "Mr. Poseidon's killing of Paul XIX seems to have had a great influence on the Church of Light." Although the presiding judge at that time took the position of pope in time, the person he chose to succeed the presiding judge was clearly not suitable for this position. Of course, for the time being, it cannot be ruled out that everything he is showing now is pretending. ”

"I wonder what kind of relationship the Pope on the sacred mountain and the presiding judge should be, Lord Harvey?" Santiago smiled and asked Harvey.

"Is the Judge asking me to talk to the Pope?" Harvey didn't want to follow Santiago's rhythm, after all, he didn't have much friendship with him. As for the presumptuous discussion of the Pope? There are not a few people on this continent who are arrogant about the Pope. Besides, Harvey is a magician, and he is still an enemy of the Church of Light, and arguing about the Pope is what he should do.

"No, no, no, Lord Harvey misunderstood. Seeing that Harvey was not happy to take his words, Stantiago immediately said directly: "How can I, as the presiding judge of the church, let you talk about the pope." Since you don't want to go around the bend, I'm not going to waste your time either. The reason why I stopped you before you arrived at Mount Kinabalu was because I wanted to make a deal with you, I wonder if you are interested?"

Santiago wasn't unhappy by Harvey's attitude, it wasn't that he was generous, it was that he didn't dare. When the lord gave him the order, he had already said that if he had any disrespect for Harvey, then he would die a miserable death.

"I wonder what kind of deal the Judge wants to make with me?" Harvey had already thought about what Santiago wanted to do, but he couldn't figure out why the other party was coming to him. After all, he didn't have the strength to kill the Pope at all, and he didn't plan to mix in the interest of fighting for power within the Church of Light.

"Your Majesty is very old, and every day he spares no effort to work for the affairs of the church, and I can't bear to look at it. And it is precisely because of the Pope's hard work that he is a little indecisive in many things, which is not a good phenomenon for the current Church of Light. Therefore, I would like to ask His Holiness to put aside the trivial matters of the Church and take a good rest, so that he can also spend his old age easily and happily. ”

Santiag's words didn't surprise Harvey, so he still felt that it didn't seem to have anything to do with him.

"Lord Harvey, you may think that this matter has nothing to do with you, and I should not have come to you. Santiage looked at Harvey and smiled: "Maybe you misunderstood, I, Santiago, will only be the presiding judge of the Church of Light, and will never be the pope of the Church of Light, and I still have self-knowledge of myself." ”

Hearing Santiago's words, Harvey thought for a moment, and suddenly felt a chuckle in his heart, his face became gloomy, and at the same time he said to Santiag: "Are you planning to be the second Paul XIX?"

Paul XIX died on the sacred mountain because he wanted to erase Harvey's memory and force him to be the pope of the Church of Light. Harvey was disgusted by the Church of Light's way of controlling others by erasing their memories.

"No, no, no, please don't excite Lord Harvey, I'm really here to make a deal, not to force you to do anything. "How could Santiago not know about the matter of Paul XIX, and it was precisely because of that incident that he, who was not among the candidates for presiding judge, urgently took over the position of presiding judge. So, in the case of Paul XIX, Santiago also has to thank Harvey and his teacher Poseidon.

"Well, tell me about your deal, but I'm definitely not going to be the Pope of the Church of Light. As a magician, Harvey could tell that Santiago wasn't lying.

Santiago nodded and said, "Actually, nothing will change, His Majesty the Pope is still His Majesty the Pope, I am also the presiding judge, of course you are still your magician." The only thing that has changed is that His Majesty the Pope's power has become your power, and I am the one who communicates and carries out your orders in the Church of Light. ”

A tempting deal, but why, Harvey didn't understand that the purpose of Santiago's great efforts was to make himself an outsider the power behind the Church of Light, and what good it would do him, Harvey couldn't think of.

"Judge, since it's a trade, what do I need to give?" Harvey showed interest in his deal, he wanted to see what the hell this San Dieg was up to.

"All you need to do is ask the local magician guilds to lift the suppression of the Church of Light's local churches. After saying that, Stantiago added, "It's also a good thing for you to control the Church of Light." ”

"Judge, although you have said so much, I don't think you missed a key link?"

"Oh? ”

"Do you think His Majesty the current Pope will obediently hand over his power?" Harvey didn't know that Santiago didn't mention how to seize power, after all, the only way to get the power of the Pope was first,... Everything that follows will be true.

"Your Excellency Harvey, you are really forgetful, I told you at the beginning, Your Majesty is old and overworked, so now he needs someone to accept him because he is overworked. ”

Harvey didn't expect Santiago to do this, so he asked, "Can you tell me how you did it?"

"A woman will always do something detrimental to her family for the sake of love, even if the woman is a saint. ”

In addition to pride, there was also a certain aftertaste on Santiago's face, especially when he said the word "holy woman".

As far as Harvey knows, the current saint of the Church of Light is the daughter of Paul XX.

Harvey was struggling, usually when he encountered such a good thing, Harvey would definitely refuse immediately, and the wisdom of his predecessors told him that if a person gains something, then he will lose something. And he has also heard many times in Delith's mouth that equivalent exchange is the most basic law of this world. If, he did get the power of the pope, then he could hardly imagine what he would lose.

Harvey knew that it wasn't that simple, but he had figured out that the Santiage in front of him was nothing more than a microphone, and it was obvious that all of this was not his idea, he was just an executor.

So the question is, who is this person behind the scenes? He is obviously already the master of the Church of Light now, why did he give me this power? If he seems to be courting himself and taking the entire Church of Light as a gift, then why doesn't he come in person, worried that he won't believe it? No, as long as he goes up to the sacred mountain, he can be confirmed, and it is nothing whether he believes it at that time.

After some deliberation, Harvey spoke: "I can't think of a reason to refuse, my presiding judge. ”

Santiag was overjoyed to hear Harvey say this, and immediately knelt down on one knee and said respectfully, "Presiding Judge Santiag, please meet Your Majesty." ”
