Chapter Forty-Six: Throwing It For Love
The sky was gradually darkening, and the ten elders had long been unbearable for the incessant frivolous human race.
The young cardinal kept repeating the fact: " I was fascinated by her from the first time I saw her.Yes.It doesn't take much time to fall in love with someone.But I'm not just a three-minute heat.Ever since I saw her in the Danse Forest.My heart has been hovering around this figure all the time.She has the intelligence and shyness of a fawn.But also the gentleness and kindness of a lamb.I've often asked myself in recent times.Is career or love important?Cardinality is an honor.It's a responsibility.Heaven has so mercy on me.How can I live up to his expectations.The prophet Cyril once said.‘ The spirit and spirit life is always higher than the material life, and I, as a member of the Bodian Sect, must strive to practice this standard for the benefit of the entire Bodi Continent. The emperors and generals cannot understand the suffering of the poor, and our Bojiao is like a long stream of water, and strive to infiltrate the well-being into thousands of households. Tell the people that the heavens will not turn a blind eye and hear nothing, but the time has not yet come, and when the final judgment day comes, those who do good will eventually be able to ascend to the eternal blessed heaven, and those who do evil will definitely not escape the pursuit of the law."
Valentine said this, turning to look at his balding colleague Benedict, who was sitting behind him in deep thought.
Benedict had already gotten angry with Valentine earlier, because Pope Damassus had already explained some details to him when he went to the Emperor's banquet in the imperial capital of Cisa. In order to fight against the evil creature that lurked underground, and which could have led to the demise of the entire Ancient Orint Empire, it was necessary to find a group of people who knew how to perform magic without being influenced by the mind. The druids of the spirit clan were the most suitable choice, and the Pope himself sent two capable men, Valentine and Benedict, to carry out the work of 'probing'.
The visions of the hiccup dragon tavern in the holy city of Råm and the strange abilities of Marshal Cripple of the Dessert all terrified the Bojiao and others.The prophet Cyril and his eight disciples had written books and published their opinions on such creatures.Most of these documents had turned into clouds of green smoke and drifted away in the wind.But a few of the works that had been handed down by chance had become heirlooms of the Orthodox Sect.No outsider had ever had the opportunity to see them.Only the successive popes and a few cardinals of great repute were free to browse and browse them.
In the Liberal Arts, everybody knows that there is such a thing as a Mind Flayer, but in the old days, no one was overly worried, because it was like hell and heaven, and even though everybody talked about it, there was never a living person who could come to you to prove it.
The conquest of the Desserts changed this frivolous and noncommittal state, and both the Pope himself and Old Benedict were more or less exposed to something that was used to prove the existence of the Mind Flayer.
When Ben was about to leave for the imperial capital, he was greatly touched by a whisper from Pontifical Damasus: "If the Mind Flayer really exists, then the Bodi continent will fall into an unprecedented crisis. After this banquet, we must rush to the Danse Forest as soon as possible, and find a way to get in touch with Bishop Valentine, who has already arrived in advance. Since he did not go north with us, he may still have a fluke mentality. You must repeatedly emphasize the seriousness of the matter to him, and if you two join hands together, I will be relieved."
The old man and the young man are one soft and one strong, one retreats and one advances, one red and one black, just right to reconcile with each other. Valentine is not only the youngest cardinal in the Liberal Arts, but he is also recognized as a hard-hearted man in the Liberal Arts. He is not the kind of reckless man, but he can always choose the toughest and most domineering way to solve the problem after careful consideration.
Benedict is the opposite, his 'sexual' personality is relatively forbearing, even if someone bullies him, at most he just throws a sleep technique and pats his ass and walks away. The reason why he seems a little depressed at the welcome banquet of the 'spirit' and 'woman' king is that he can't understand Valentine's style of acting.
He had thought that such an ambitious and resourceful young man would not fall into Qingyu's struggles, but what he never expected was that Valentine would openly talk about this taboo topic in front of so many 'spirits'.
When Valentine turned around to look at him halfway through his talk, Benedict was pretty much in that state.
The young cardinal smiled slightly, he glanced around, all he saw was a hostile look, but he was not flustered, and still said unhurriedly to the 'female' king: "Your Majesty, life is precious, freedom is more valuable, if it is for love, both can be thrown away, life is unsatisfactory in the world. And since I am fortunate enough to find the other half, then I should resolutely pursue this happiness, and the cause of the Bojiao is indeed magnificent, and I will indeed be expelled from the Bojiao for this reason, but I will not regret it, because as long as I have a breath, I will be able to do my best, continue my previous career as a cloth, continue to seek all kinds of welfare for the common people in the world, and my destiny is now in the hands of your majesty."
"Oh."' The female king didn't react at once.
"Your Majesty, on the Bodi Continent." There are many cases of 'fornication' between the spirit and the human being.The half-spirit spirit and the half-human 'mixed' blood can also be seen occasionally. Valentine is willing to give up all worldly prejudices to pursue this favorite 'girl', and that 'girl' is also willing to make a personal promise, but the abyss that lies before us is still clearly visible, because she is not willing to be abandoned by her beloved people, she is not willing to never return to the Danse Forest, she does not want her future children to be wronged, all of this has to be decided by your Majesty, as long as you have a word, then all problems can be solved, I believe that Your Majesty will definitely 'become' the beauty of a person."
Valentine said this in a "swaying" manner, and there was hardly any pause in between, and a few of the elders listened as they opened their two lips so wide that their chins were almost on the wine glass.
Some of the composed, who were at once noticed, noticed that the hand of the 'female' king, which hung down at her waist, seemed to tremble slightly.
'Slow."' The king stepped in front of the "loyal" courtier, smiled faintly at him, and then unexpectedly slapped him in the mouth with his hand, which had been trembling a little just a moment. Get him out."
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and everyone was nervous. What kind of 'medicine' is sold in the gourd of the female king today?
Valentine stood very calmly in the middle of the feast, waiting for the 'woman' to answer in the affirmative.
The young man met his dream lover Agnes after being attacked by a werewolf, and in addition to falling in love, he was most concerned with the various political factions in the Danse Forest and the various legends and anecdotes about the 'female' king. The fact that the king had never married all her life was very clear, and Valentine immediately saw something unusual in this. The spirit is controlled by the double shackles of reason and emotion just like humans.A person can work fourteen hours a day.But he can't live without a 'private' life all his life.There is no such thing as a higher being.As long as a person is physically and mentally healthy, he must need a companion to soothe himself and relieve his worries and sorrows.' The female king is not openly married, but it does not mean that she cannot have a lover behind her back to please herself. This is almost a sure thing. Valentine's research and mastery of human "sex" is very thorough.
The reason why he dared to bargain with the 'female' king at the banquet was that he saw an inexplicable entry point, and his self-confidence became the best accelerant.
His gamble was at least half of a success for the time being, because the 'female' king not only did not refuse to his face, but immediately drove the bird out of the banquet.
Outside the lobby, a bright moon was already hanging in the air, and everyone dared to be angry. The powerful prestige and aura that the female king has accumulated over the past 150 years are beyond the reach of these junior elders, and they have also let it go. No matter what the female king wants to say next, for the sake of his own political future, he must support him unconditionally.
Just as the 'woman' king was about to open his mouth to respond, there was a terrible wolf howl outside the hall, and everyone was taken aback.
The 'squires', armed to the teeth, immediately began to get busy, and they went in groups to find out in a vain attempt to eradicate the scourge as quickly as possible.
'Want' to know what's going on, and continue next time.
