Chapter 596: Appropriate
If the previous news only surprised Leo, then the words that Cheedo just said were like a thunderbolt from the sky, splitting Leo's whole person into scorching and tender, and even his thinking was completely stunned at once. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Me? You just said, let me be this pope? β
"That's right, you." This time it was Dandrien, who had been drinking tea calmly, who spoke: "After discussing with Cheetos, I think you are the best candidate for the pope at this moment." β
If someone else were standing here and hearing the message that he was going to be elected pope, then that person would be absolutely ecstatic and would have jumped three feet high, eager to wear the crown that symbolizes the leader of tens of millions of light believers in the world.
But Leo is not like this, on the contrary, when Leo hears the news, there is only fear in his heart.
"What are you kidding!!" Leo couldn't help but shout: "This is too admirable, I'm not modest, how can you say I can be a pope?" β
"Why can't you be pope?" Chita smiled and asked: "You must know that the status of the god is even higher than that of the cardinal, and it can be said that it is the most suitable successor of the pope." And Lucyβwell, a large part of the reason why Bishop Gavin was able to make the anti-papal faction so great was because of your name as a god, wasn't it? β
Leo couldn't help but roll his eyes fiercely, and said, "That's true, but don't forget-I'm not a real god, okay, I'm an impostor, big brother!" β
That's why Leo is reluctant to try to compete for the papal throne.
What are you kidding that a fake god wants to be the pope of the Church of Light? Isn't this the nakedness of deceiving the Supreme God of Light?
It is said that every pope will be blessed by the god of light from the heavenly realm when he takes office, but the problem is that if Leo really becomes the pope, I am afraid that what will fall from the sky at that time will not be the blessing of some bullshit god of light, but a light of judgment that represents the wrath of the gods and can make Leo evaporate in an instant, right?
Who doesn't know that the position of the Pope represents unparalleled power, represents the spokesperson of the God of Light in this world, and represents the ability to control a top force that even the Spany Empire, the largest power in the continent, must take seriously?
But there is a good saying, if you have money, you must also have a life to spend! If the result of becoming pope is to be destroyed in the light of judgment, what is the use of the papal throne?
Leo isn't tired yet!
"Whoever loves this pope should go, I will never do it!" Leo huffed and took the teacup that Dandrion had just handed over, took a big sip, and then made up his mind categorically.
To Leo's surprise, Cheeto and Dandrion didn't look frustrated, instead showing a look of "I knew you kid would refuse" on their faces.
This made Leo suddenly have an ominous premonition in his heart: "Why do you feel like I've fallen for it?" β
Sure enough, Chieta smiled and said, "Leo, of course we know that you are a fake, but don't forget, it doesn't mean that a fake god will definitely attract the wrath of the Supreme God of Light." β
"Huh?" Leo couldn't help but be a little stunned at this moment: "I don't read much, don't lie to me, as far as I know, a high god like the Supreme God of Light has always been the most intolerant of others' deception of him, right?" β
Cheetos smiled and said, "Let me tell you a secret, this secret has been passed down by word of mouth among the masters of the Inquisition for a long time, and even many popes don't know about it." β
Leo tugged at the corners of his mouth, although he wasn't interested in this bullshit secret in Cheeto's mouth, but he still asked very cooperatively: "What secret?" β
Cheeta smiled and said, "This secret is actually very simple, that is, in fact, the masters of each generation of the Inquisition are dark cultivators who cultivate the power of the dark attribute!" β
Leo's mouthful of tea almost squirted out: "You, what did you say?" β
To be honest, Leo thought that the reason why Cheeto was able to become a dark cultivator was a special case - after all, Leo had known it from Dandrien's story, and Cheeto had brought Dandrion out of the castle to join the Church of Light, and the church wanted to sell Dandrion, an angel, a face.
But Leo never imagined that every top leader of the Inquisition, who had killed an unknown number of dark cultivators in the past few hundred years, was actually one of the dark cultivators!
The smile on Cheeto's face remained the same, but what came out of his mouth was the secret that the Inquisition had been keeping secret: "Surprised, right? Actually, I have never cultivated even a day's holy power, and since Lord Dandrion brought me from the castle to the Holy See, I have passed the examination of the Inquisition and become a member of the Inquisition. Since that time, I have been cultivating the dark power until today. β
"So you still don't understand, Leo?" When Chieto said this, he suddenly reached out and patted Leo on the shoulder: "The Great Light Supreme God doesn't really care what kind of identity we were before, nor does it care what attribute power we cultivated, as long as we can be wholeheartedly loyal to him and work hard for his glory to spread throughout this world, he will forgive all our sins, whether it is you or me, it is the same in this regard." β
"Thisβ" Leo's mouth opened wide, unable to speak for a long time, feeling that his three views seemed to be subverted again.
As a supreme god of light representing the power of light in the Three Realms, he was able to tolerate the existence of dark cultivators under his subordinates?
And looking at this situation, this situation in the Inquisition may be tacitly approved by this light and supreme god! Don't forget that Dandrien, the angel sent down to this world by the Supreme God of Light, is sitting next to Leo not far from drinking tea at this moment!
At this time, Dandrion also spoke: "Leo, in fact, you should know very well that there is no good and evil in power, only those who control the power itself can be good and evil. Even a cultivator of the dark power can use the dark power he cultivates to do good deeds and do good deeds; And cultivators who cultivate the power of light can also use the power of light to do evil things, right? β
"As a great deity who knows all things in the world, the all-powerful God of Light and the Supreme God has foreseen everything. The light is loving and forgiving, and as long as you can believe in Him wholeheartedly and work hard to spread His glory, I believe that the Light Supreme God will not count the slightest mistake you have done before. β
"Well," Leo said after a long moment of strange looking at Dandrien, "though Lord Dandrien does not seem to be at all disobedient to you, and it is quite demagogic in your rhetoric, butβI am not a fool, why should I put my life on the forgiveness of your Most High God!" Besides, I don't believe in God at all, how can you make me believe in your light and supreme god with all my heart! Don't do it, don't do it! β
Dandrion coughed and said, "In that case, you will never be able to be this pope?" β
Leo snorted twice and said very firmly: "That's right, even if I die, I won't agree to be this pope!" β
A cold light suddenly burst out from Dandrien's waist and instantly came to Leo's neck: "You just said that you won't be this pope even if you die?" β
Leo glanced at the sharp blade across his neck, couldn't help but gasp, gritted his teeth fiercely and shouted, "Don't, don't do this! It's just a joke, just kidding! When, am I not good enough for this pope? β
