"May God forgive me as a sinner so that my sins may be forgiven. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info "Mayor Lauretta sat across from me and bowed respectfully to me.

"God will forgive all the sins of His people," I responded formulaically.

"Father, you must have seen the situation here when you came here, and you must have heard about the situation in Esmunger, the people here live in poverty, and the standard of living is probably lower than that of most people in this world. The reason for this is none other than me," Lauretta looked up at me as she said this, but there was no expression on my face.

So he continued: "Esmunger is not actually like the outside world rumored, without any resources, and the transportation is not so convenient. You should have seen it in the two days you have been here, the traffic conditions here are not much worse, and in the same way, in fact, there are not no resources here, Esmanger has a huge deposit of earth-based magic crystals. ”

I didn't react until he said this, because I already knew about this kind of thing.

"It was I who blocked the news of the entire mine for my own selfishness, and found someone to dig the mine for sale, and I made a fortune with the help of this mine, but I didn't want others to get rich in this way, so after I got rich, I didn't let anyone here participate in the excavation of this mine, and the people here dared to be the owner of this mine, and they should have lived well because of this precious thing.

Father, if you say that I have committed such a crime, will God forgive me? Laureta looked up and asked me.

"God will forgive all the sins of His people, and besides, if you are such a devout believer and so sincerely repentant, God will forgive you," I said.

"Then I will be relieved, then, Father, in order to repay your grace, please accept this part of the offering, and praise my lord." Lauretta got up and went out at this time, leaving a gold card on the table, which I picked up and looked at, and there were a million gold coins in it.

Sure enough, he came to buy me, and in this way, the death of the last priest here is probably inseparable from him, but as for how he died, there are too many possibilities. However, the biggest possibility should be that he is too greedy.

After accepting the gold card, I walked out of the ashram to close the door to the church, only to find that Lauretta hadn't left yet. When he saw me coming out, he smiled and asked me, "Father, God must be satisfied with this dedication." ”

I looked up at the idol that no longer glowed because the magic power had been exhausted, how could the god have time to pay attention to such a small matter.

"God, very satisfied." That's how I answered.

"That's wonderful, I think my sins are so great that I should take time out of my month to repent and ask God to forgive me for my sins." Lauretta saluted me again, and then left with the two men behind him.

It's really a naked bribe, but since it's a free property, I reluctantly accept it.

When I knew that there was an earth-based magic crystal vein in this place, in fact, I had thought about it a lot, from going to Duolun City to report it to going directly to the City Lord's Mansion for a showdown, all the possibilities that could allow me to be promoted in the Holy See of Light, almost I had thought about it, the human world is a simple world after all, as long as there are benefits, everything will be possible.

But with my own conditions that I have just arrived here for less than a week, no matter how much possibility is pressed on me, I will not be able to bear it because the foundation is too weak. So in the end, I decided to wait and see.

The three people I killed were the henchmen of this mayor, and they disappeared from me, so this mayor will always come to me to find out, I just waited for this opportunity to slowly contact him, I still don't know anything about this place. Although I have confidence in my own strength, I don't want to be framed for being reckless, and in the end I will be expelled from the Holy See of Light, which would be too embarrassing.

Magic crystals are extremely precious strategic materials in every country, and they can hide a vein for decades, but not only a town mayor can do it, if he doesn't have any connections in the provincial city of Duolun City, I can't believe it.

So I lived here peacefully for a while, and Lauretta occasionally came to the church to talk to me about some inconsequential things, and I noticed that everyone here had a look of disgust when they saw Lauretta, and of course, the disgust could not hide the jealousy in their bones.

This is normal, Laureta's house is much bigger than the church, and his clothes are obviously much higher than the people here.

When I mentioned this issue to Lauretta, Lauretta said to me dismissively: "That's why I didn't use any of the people here when I was mining ore, and how could I mind if I used such a small thing as the local people were easy to leak information." Father Priest, you are also a wise man, and I don't need to explain the reason for this, but the reason why they dislike me is because they think I am too stingy. ”

"Oh? I don't think you're stingy in any way. "My interest was aroused, what I said was not against my will, Lauretta, in every way, is absolutely bold, which can be confirmed by his usual actions and behaviors, not to mention, sending a million gold coins every month, by no means a stingy person can do it.

"It's not like you can decide if you're not stingy, because ah, human beings are creatures with too strange psychological methods, and they can be punished, but they can't stand the gifts, especially if they can't stand the kindness of others to him for no reason." After Laureta said this, she sighed.

When I asked why I said that, he looked at me and said, "Father Andrew, by the way you do things, I can tell that you have just graduated from the Academy of Magic, and not a real clergyman who works directly as a priest, and as for what I mean by that, you will probably understand in the next few days if you try to refuse alms to beggars who come to church, or to say powerlessness to people who ask for healing." ”

With these words, Laureta got up and left. Instead of getting up to send him out, I sat in my chair and pondered his words.

The calculation of the soul sea speed, the conclusion reached without exception, is that all these people will either leave in frustration, or cry sadly, and the worst result is just sneaking into the church to steal, so why would Laureta say such a thing, I decided to try.
