?“ Oh? Bismarck's smile remained unchanged, and he didn't seem to be surprised: "Then how do you explain why the great God of Light foresaw what is happening to you thirty years ago?" ”

"It's so simple." Leo looked at Bismarck seriously: "Judging from the prophecy I know, His Majesty the Supreme God of Light only predicted that there would be such a pope in thirty years, but who can prove that this pope must be me?" In my opinion, if it weren't for my hard work, struggle and persistence along the way, I am afraid that I would have fallen on this road to the pinnacle of power. ”

Bismarck said, "But of course it's you, otherwise why would you be standing here?" ”

"You are wrong, Duke Bismarck." Leo shook his head and said, "I'm just me, Leo Sargeras, a magic waste who was an apprentice in magic a year ago, and even scratched his head to become a first-class magician, this world won't stop turning even if I don't have it, and even if I die, there will be another pope standing in front of you, right?" ”

Leo looked at Bismarck, and his eyes glowed with a special brilliance: "Don't you understand? My hard work, perseverance and struggle all come from my heart. It's not by others, and it's not because of any prophecy or favor. Yes, there are many people who have helped me step by step, but if you think about it, if I were a guy who only knows surrender, give up, and decadence, would those people still go out of their way to help me? I'm afraid I'll have left me to fend for myself. ”

Leo took a deep breath, his cheeks flushed, and he didn't know if it was because of the five glasses of wine he had just drunk, or because of the excitement in his heart: "Please remember my words, Duke Bismarck." Instead of believing in an ethereal fate, it is better to be yourself in a down-to-earth manner. ”

Bismarck was silent for a while, and a smile suddenly flashed on his face: "I understand, thank you for your answer, Your Majesty the Pope." ”

Leo let out a sigh of relief, and for some reason, just after saying these words to Bismarck, Leo suddenly felt that his whole person seemed to have a sense of sublimation in an instant, and many of the problems that had plagued Leo were suddenly solved, making Leo's whole person more thoughtful.

Leo has never believed in the protection of any gods, let alone fate, not only because of the education that Leo has been receiving at the Wizard Academy, but also because of what Leo has seen and heard along the way.

Yes, there are gods in this world, and they are gods as powerful as the Supreme God of Light, but so what?

Where was the God of Light when Pope Enhill, the highest god servant in the world, died?

When the Great Demon King from the Dark Demon Realm is making waves, where is the God of Light?

When the Holy See is bloodied because of the Pope's throne, where is the God of Light?

Leo did not forget the light of judgment that fell from the sky on the day of the miracle in Varna City, and almost wiped out Leo.

If it weren't for the real god favor, that cute little girl Angelina had spoken in time, then Leo would have been split into tens of millions of pieces by that light of judgment.

The Prophecy of the Most High God of Light, the Pope? To hell with this prophecy and the King James Decree!

After a few moments, Leo slowly came back to his senses, and then he was stunned.

"Hey, where did this Bismarck go?"

In the moment when Leo was distracted, Bismarck had disappeared from Leo's presence.

Leo looked left and right, and even searched for a few nearby flowers, and finally determined that Bismarck was really missing, or rather, had run away.

Yes, just ran.

"Make no mistake, the old man hasn't answered me why he knows the prophecy of the god of light." Leo was quite speechless in his heart at the moment, this Bismarck, as the dignified Prime Minister of the Jimny Empire, how could he say that he was also a famous superstar on the mainland, so he broke his promise and ran away?

The unwilling Leo even went back to the main venue of the banquet to look for and inquire, and the reply he received was "Duke Bismarck just said that he wanted to rest and has left early." ”

Leo looked at the sky speechlessly for three seconds, and finally came to a conclusion: "His sister, if this Pope believes in this old fox again in the future, I will be a puppy!" ”

And not only that, judging from the information that Leo got later, Bismarck did not even return to the residence arranged by the Spinny Empire after leaving the Imperial Garden, but went directly out of the east gate of Ridmar City, and then completely disappeared from everyone's sight.

At this time, no matter how speechless Leo was, he could only accept the fact that he was tricked by Bismarck but gained nothing, but judging from the results, Leo was not a loss.

In the following days, Leo stayed in the city of Ridmar for two more days, and consulted with Her Majesty and her three ministers about how to send troops, how to command, how to coordinate, and so on, and then left Ridmar and returned to the Holy See.

Of course, after doing so many things, Leo is not without rewards, first of all, Empress Teresa I officially confirmed the marriage contract between Leo and Bella with Leo as Bella's family, and announced it to the world.

Secondly, through this series of operations, Duke Habs and Duke Lean have established a relationship with Leo among the three major ministers of the empire, which makes the Church of Light, which has lost its influence on the upper echelons of the empire since Charles XVI ascended the throne, once again has a strong voice within the Spanny Empire, and at the same time further consolidates the relationship between the Church and the Spanny Empire.

After returning to the Holy See, Leo mobilized a knight order and a clerical order to rush to the northeastern front of the Spanne Empire as agreed.

When everything was ready, the Spanny Empire officially announced to the world, condemning the traitorous Louis and Jimny invaders in the Kingdom of Frans, and declaring Her Royal Highness Bella, Princess of the Kingdom of France, who is currently under the protection of the Spanny Empire, the only legitimate heir to the throne of France.

In order to defend Princess Bera's succession, the 200,000 Sbani army under the command of the Duke of Lien officially entered the Kingdom of France on the day of the proclamation, and vowed to expel all those who dared to covet the throne and territory of France.

A great war that was talked about by later historians and war researchers broke out.

But a month before the start of the war, Leo's attention was not too much on the great battle that was destined to go down in history.

Because the day of the Pope's enthronement ceremony has finally come.
