Chapter 58: Uncle and Nephew
Alertness, suspicion, disbelief, and even absolute trust, and so on, all kinds of eyes, exposed Neam to the crowd like countless spotlights. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Neam, who had been bowing his head, straightened his priest's robe, and he raised his head with a slight frown. Even in the face of such accusations, the gold-rimmed pastor remained unwavering.
"Neham!" Inigo's wrinkled face was full of anger, "give me the dagger at your waist and show me what secret you hide!"
The bishop's anger was not directed at Inigo, "Don't worry, if anyone on the scene dares to slander a devout disciple of Dagmar, I believe that His Royal Highness the Grand Duke will handle it impartially and let the slanderer get the punishment he deserves!"
Inigo used this to force Evan to make a promise, even if he couldn't attack the high-ranking Evan with this, but it must be able to teach Evan a lesson in abandoning the car and protecting the coach.
Aven's face was calm, "Bishop Inigo, you don't have to insinuate. I can tell you unequivocally that there is no such thing as a slanderer! If it turns out to be my mistake, then I promise that I will ask Dagmar, the god of justice, to repent of my sins and declare the Church of Justice the state religion of Erossa!"
Once the just church is established as the state religion, the Clayderman family will inevitably lose some of its power and great authority, and Dagmar will also gain unprecedented glory!
Allowing Claudien's bloodline descendants to submit to the glory of Dagmar would not only be a blow to the authority of the Alliance Leader left over from the War of Annihilation, but also a great harm to the multiverse mage community.
You must know that the Clayderman family is not just a descendant of the saint Claudine! it is also the bloodline descendant of the most ancient and powerful king, the king of all laws recognized by all mages!
Although Inigo is unaware of the Claydermans' relationship with Lusen, he is aware of Digma's concern and desire for Erosa. At this moment, he even felt his soul tremble!
To be able to subdue the Clayderman family, he could not imagine how Dagmar would reward himself! Become the Duchy Bishop of Erosa? No, it is not surprising that he even became the chosen person of Dagmar!
However, after the excitement, there was a suspicion, why did Evan make such a terrible promise? Is it just that he is young and vigorous, and he is dizzy for a while?
"So, why don't you give it a try and see if you can get that glory?" Evan asked, aggressively.
"Neham......" Inigo looked at his nephew and proud disciple.
“…… Look no further, Bishop Inigo. Neam subconsciously avoided Inigo's gaze, he looked at Evan, holding the hilt of the Black Blade in his right hand, "What His Highness Aven said is the truth!"
He frowned slightly confused, "Even though it's useless to say anything now, I'm still curious. Your Highness, where did you learn of my identity? Even counting yesterday's brief glimpse at the Champs, you and I should have only met for the second time. Did I accidentally expose something that aroused your suspicions?"
His words struck Inigo hard, and the bishop, who fully trusted his nephew, clutched his chest, took a few steps back and fell to the ground. He pointed at Neam with one hand, his face was old and pale, and he couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time, 'you, you, you'.
"There is a proverb in Erosa that a mouse in the skin of a flower cannot become a cat. Aven's index finger and middle finger were brought together, and he waved down to give the order, "If you do any injustice, you will kill yourself, Neham, and meet the judgment of fate!"
Hmmm――
The soldiers present drew their swords.
Edie stepped forward to protect Aven, Earl Aubrey grim-faced, leading his family knights to charge, Charlotte quietly made a magical gesture, and Vivien Leigh in the other corner drew her holy sword, and the knights under her command were ready to move.
Neam was silent and drew the Black Blade.
"Wait!
Onigo, who had fallen to the ground, roared loudly at the pain in his chest, and Neam looked at the loyal elder in surprise.
"Neam is the pastor of our just church, even if he falls, he will be judged by Dagmar himself!" Inigo turned around and knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Aven, the once high man is now like a lonely and helpless old man, "Your Highness! I beg you to hand over the traitor to me for trial, this is the internal affairs of our just church, please don't interfere!"
"......" Evan was silent for a moment, frowning and shaking his head, "I'm sorry, Inigo-sama. In fact, this is no longer an internal affair of your religion, Neam is suspected of summoning the Abyss Demon in Lucerne, and has violated the criminal law of Erosa, and I, as the de jure heir of Erosa, have the right and obligation to order the arrest!"
"Also, I have to tell you sorry. Evan said in a gentle voice with determination, "Because of Neham's actions, the entire Church of Justice is now on the suspicion list of the Principality of Erossa! ”
"W-what......" Inigo seemed to be dozens of years old, and the bishop who had been drained of his spirit and spirit was lying on the ground weakly.
Neam bowed his head sadly, and he said in a deep voice, "All of this has nothing to do with others, and the church has been deceived by the mages of the Forest of Illusions, who mistakenly think that I am the priest of Dagmar. They're all unrelated!"
He raised his head and said in a loud voice, "I'm the only traitor!"
"It's even more suspicious when you say that!"
The Earl of Aubrey roared in anger and drew his sword and slashed at Neham. The latter rolled sideways, avoiding Aubrey's slash. The spells on his body shone brightly, and he triggered various spells to strengthen his body functions, and rushed towards Ai Wen like an arrow from the string!
Neham intends to implement the decapitation tactic, after all, according to outside rumors, Evan is only a knight at the level of the fourth ring.
"Look down on people less!"
Edie roared and drew his sword to resist. The knights guarding Aven swarmed up and surrounded Neam. The tense atmosphere completely erupted with the first attack of Earl Aubrey, and hundreds of elite soldiers formed an impermeable encirclement of Neham.
Neam endured the bone-eating pain that ignited the Black Blade, and the black blade that was originally the length of the dagger turned into a half-sword. In the early summer sun, the Black Blade absorbs all light like a black hole, and no one can see the path of the Black Blade when it is wielded.
Neam has set off a bloody storm, except for the elite knights who can fight him, the rest are not his enemies!
"Bishop Inigo, give the order!"
The pastor of the Church of Justice surrounded Inigo and pressed him to make a decision in an anxious tone. If they make a move to watch from the sidelines at this moment, they will surely be speechless, and they will be tied to the pillar of shame of traitors forever.
"I know...... Of course I do!" Inigo's gums clattered, clenching his fists, and one last deep look at Neham's back.
Inigo poured too much affection into his nephew, which went far beyond that of his uncle and nephew, and the bishop even regarded Neham as his own son and heir.
All unfulfilled dreams are hoped for in Neham's life, but the reality is the most cruel hell of despair!
"I order, to assist His Royal Highness the Grand Duke of Aven, to capture Neham......"
He waved his hand and ordered, and that action seemed to drain his life's energy. In an instant, the bishop was completely drained of his energy and turned into an old man.
