Chapter 55: Inquisition of Heresy (5)

Checking chastity?

The monk sneered, "Please!"

Todd is in danger, and if there is anything wrong with this, not only Karin, but also his own life will be put into it.

But for some reason, his heart was calm, without the slightest fear or uneasiness.

Scenes from the past gradually came to his mind,

In the laboratory, silently acting as an assistant, the girl always admired her back.

On a lonely island, with unconditional honesty, the girl reveals herself her deepest secrets.

In the watchtown, eating Western food, the girl quietly cast a grateful glance at herself.

Todd believes that there is an invisible trust between him and Karin, an unspeakable trust......

Father Paul was quick to act, and immediately found a lady who had served as a ceremonial lady in the court.

As Karin followed the woman backstage to the "virginity test", Todd looked around at the chemical agent on the table, and on the side of his body, a bottle of potion was rolled into his sleeve.

Ten minutes later, Madame walked out and announced the results of the test to the crowd.

"This girl is a virgin. 』

Hearing this, Queen Mary, who was on the second floor, was startled, and covered her mouth with her hand. She became more and more unable to understand Todd, and at first she thought that the two were lovers, so they behad to protect each other. It turned out that the monk was really using his life to defend the pious girl.

In her heart, there is a trace of emotion, a trace of envy, and ...... A hint of jealousy......

As the crowd whispered, Todd breathed a sigh of relief.

"How is this possible?!" Paul lost his mind and yelled with his hands and feet, "How could she be a virgin?!"

Todd's eyes grew colder, and his patience had come to an end.

He said to Paul, "Father, since you have completed the test you requested, could you please cooperate with me in taking one of the tests?"

Paul watched as the other party raised a glass of the 'Eye of God', and his body stepped back in horror, and said, "I don't believe in your alchemy!

Todd said to the audience, "Can anyone cooperate?"

Needless to say, several priests and knights who were usually at odds with Paul walked quickly to the judgment seat and firmly held the struggling priest.

The monk held the Eye of God closer and closer, and pressed Paul's palm into the solution.

The clear water instantly turned black and brown.

Seeing this scene, everyone's jaws dropped.

"It turns out that the real evil has been lurking in the light!"

Seeing the priests and knights around him retreat in fright, Paul grabbed his hair with his hands in pain, and he knew that his life was completely over.

And all of this is thanks to this bastard monk!

Red-eyed, the desperate man picked up the silver candlestick beside him and swung it at Todd.

The latter relied on the ability of "speed" to avoid this attack, and instead used the ability of "weakness" in his right hand, grabbed Paul's arm, causing him to lose all his strength in an instant, and his whole body collapsed in front of the judgment seat.

To outsiders, it looked as if the attacker was standing unsteady and falling to the ground, and the monk was supporting him.

Todd put his mouth in Paul's ear and said in a voice that only two people could hear, "Father, I have good news for you, you have succeeded in messing me off!"

Using his body as a cover, Todd poured a bottle of pale yellow powder that he had just taken from the table on Paul's body.

Then, standing up, ignoring the immobile man who had fallen to the ground, he took a prayer book from the table and said aloud: "God is merciful, the rising sun shines on us from above, I protect myself as an enemy, and defeat the treacherous schemes of the devil, I pray to God to send the demons away, Satan and the procession of the world with the power of the Lord, and the demons that harm the souls of men are driven to hell!"

There were clergy in the audience who were familiar with the scriptures and explained to others: "This is a prayer for exorcism. ”

"Exorcism? Could it be that Father Paul has demons in his body?"

Todd sprinkled holy water on the pulpit on the priest's body, and white smoke slowly rose, and the latter let out a terrible scream.

"Behold, the holy water works! there really is a demon in the inquisitor's body!"

After sprinkling the holy water, Todd walked directly above the judgment seat and came to Bishop Fabian's side.

The old man's body shook like chaff, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Todd, what do you want to do?!"

Ignoring him and looking at the huge cross overhead, Todd pushed open the windows of the cathedral's main hall with both hands, and the sunlight slanted into the hall from the outside, shining on Paul, who was lying on the ground, unable to move. Suddenly, without warning, a fire raged from his body, and the burning pain caused the gloomy man to climb up and become a "fire man", running back and forth for his life.

Amid the screams and cries of the audience, and in the prayers and supplications of the jury, Todd stepped down from the judgment seat and came to the Burning Man.

Paul, whose vitality was gradually running out, knelt down in front of Todd with blackened skin, withered hair, and shriveled eyes, and uttered a final curse to the enemy in front of him with his last voice: "You...... Yes...... To hell...... The "

Todd squatted down, smelled the smell of burnt flesh and blood in the air, looked at the man who was burning more and more half a meter away, and whispered: "If there really is that day, I will set fire to the entire heaven with my own hands in hell......"

————————————

The Inquisition of Heresy is over.

To everyone's surprise, the judge became a saint, and he was carried out of the cathedral after being worshipped, while the judge became a heretic and was burned alive on the pulpit.

After that trial, Todd and Bishop Fabian met in private and negotiated something akin to "bargaining."

In the end, the following conditions were met:

Bishop Fabian undertook that, (1) to grant Todd a power of attorney to establish the "Church of the Harbor of the Twilight", (2) to allocate enough supplies and weapons for him to use the 500 soldiers, (3) that the Cathedral of the Silver Ring agreed that Todd would establish the Order of His own, and that Fabian would write a letter of his own hand to report the matter to the Archbishop and the College of Cardinals of the Diocese of the West; (4) to allow the Church of the Harbor of Twilight to establish the "Sisters of the Father" and to have Todd temporarily administered it; (5) not to prosecute Karin for the crimes of "pretending to be a monk" and "attempted arson"; (6) He was stripped of his holy order by Father Paul and recorded in the register of heretics.

What Todd needs to do is to send a batch of crystal relics to the church every twenty days, no less than the first quantity.
