Chapter 283: House Arrest

"It's boring!"

See Carey. Santos's tense face, Hathaway shook her head, it is said that these knights of the church live an extremely disciplined life, and she sometimes really wants to ask: Are the gods you worship really worthy of your belief in them?

However, it is estimated that if this question is really asked, this paladin will slash her with a sword!

The Archbishop was not there, and they didn't want Hathaway out of their sight, but they couldn't keep her a prisoner, so the compromise was to put her under house arrest. They walked straight along a tree-lined avenue next to the cathedral until they entered a building that resembled a barracks.

Hathaway should feel lucky, if it weren't for the tough attitude of Fivinlie XVIII, and she also had the great merit of attacking the underground dwarf base and sheltering the refugees of the Alpine Kingdom, I am afraid that she would not be able to get out this time, because under normal circumstances, even the emperor XiΓ  would not collide with the church because of a small ordinary nobleman.

The veteran had sternly warned her before she came, as long as she followed the procedure, with the protection of Fivenel XVIII, the church would not dare to go too far, if she was too tough, even if she could return to the Cordillera Plateau, with the power of the natural church, there were eighteen ways to manipulate her. Anyway, she has already condensed her spiritual heart, and the methods of teaching those inquiries basically don't work for her.

"It's still too weak!"

Hathaway looked at the outer wall of the barracks and the turret, and sighed slightly.

It's interesting to have a place where a character like her is temporarily detained...... Separate small courtyards, separated by grilles. The room consists of a bedroom, a small living room, a washroom, etc., but it is very thorough, the courtyard is a lawn and a set of wooden tables and chairs, the gate is unlocked, but it is closed, and there are sentries patrolling back and forth at the door.

In the eyes of those in the church, it would be better for the detainees to be able to escape, so that they would have an excuse to take further steps.

There are twenty or thirty small courtyards in total, some of which are already occupied, but most of them are still empty. A few people walking around the courtyard saw a young magician being 'escorted' over. It's all quite strange to look at.

"Your Excellency, I'll let you know for a while, Your Excellency the Archbishop is not in Heidelberg at the moment, I'm afraid you will have to rest here for a while."

Carey. Sandos was polite though. But very resolutely. Look at that stance. If Hathaway didn't go in by himself, he would have to do it.

"Humph!"

Hathaway's anger surged, but she thought about what was at stake. With a cold snort, he pushed the door in, then slammed the door shut.

Carey. The four knights behind Santos all had angry expressions on their faces, and one of them was about to step forward and scream angrily, but was killed by Carey. Sandos stopped, "Your Excellency, dinner will be delivered on time, if it doesn't suit your taste, please take care of it." ”

With that, he turned and left with the four knights.

Hathaway followed the path in the courtyard into the room, the hall was an ordinary table, chairs, tea set, and a large bedroom, a hard bed, a simple bedding, but very clean, at least very different from the gloomy cell scene she imagined.

After touring her makeshift quarters, Hathaway took out her tea set and tea leaves and began to make tea...... The water used to make the tea is from the fairy garden, which is very pure and refreshing, and after a while, the fragrance of the tea overflows, which makes her mood much better.

"It's time to take a vacation." Hathaway comforted herself so much, poured herself a cup of tea, and took out some snacks, which was a little self-satisfied.

"What a fragrant smell, Your Excellency the Magician, would you mind entertaining an uninvited guest?" An old, somewhat hoarse voice came from outside.

"Please come in." Hathaway didn't greet her, but just raised her voice in response.

After a while, there was a sound of climbing the wall outside, and then someone jumped down from the fence, listening to the sound, it seemed that the martial arts skills were not very high. After a while, someone appeared at the door, but it was an old man with gray hair.

"Old man, if you don't leave the door but jump over the wall, are all the people here like this?"

Hathaway stood up, her tone teasing.

"Hehe, this kind of wall is meant to be used for jumping."

The old man smiled and introduced himself, "I'm Levitch. Hawa, young mage, what do you call it? ”

Hathaway's eyes flashed with surprise, you know, in the Titan world, strength and family background are very important. This old man has no noble signs on him, and he has not cultivated advanced martial arts and magic, he is clearly an ordinary person, but when facing her as a great magician, he is neither humble nor arrogant, and his bearing is calm.

"Hathaway. Bell, Count of the Cordillera. Have a seat. Hathaway also gave her name, stretched out her hand to invite the old man to sit down, then took a teacup and poured him a cup of tea...... Suddenly, her hand trembled, and she looked at the old man in surprise: "Levich. Hava Archmagister? ”

Levich that. Hava, a legendary figure in the Otiga Empire for nearly a hundred years, is only forty years old, and he is already a ninth-level magician, becoming an idol in the hearts of magic apprentices. However, he rose like a meteor and disappeared like a meteor, and no one had seen him for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be here...... Hathaway was even more strange, how could the archmage not have any magic at all? Is this a return to the basics?

"Good tea!"

Levich that. Hawa took a sip of the teacup and praised it, then gently put down the cup, shook his head and said, "It's just an old man who is dying, where is the great magister." ”

"Your Excellency Hawa, this is my homemade snack, please taste it."

Hathaway didn't ask any more, but her respectfulness remained...... Even if it was just once, the other party was also a strong person who had reached the realm of a ninth-level magician.

"Hehe, the food here is the same, and the mouth is light, but today I can change the taste." Levich that. Hawa was not polite, the old man's appetite was quite good, three times five divided by two, not only ate all the snacks on the plate, but also drank a whole pot of tea.

Finally, he touched his stomach and said with great satisfaction: "It's been a long time since I've eaten so happily, but today I can save food for those guys in the church." Young man, why did you get caught here? ”

"I wasn't caught." Hathaway told her what had happened, and it wasn't a big deal anyway.

"Well, you're in luck. If it's really not you're done, and the emperor is protecting you, those guys will also have some scruples about fame. If you do it, then even the emperor can't protect you, unless you are the illegitimate daughter of the goddess of nature. "Levich. Hawa said.

"How did you get caught here, Lord Hawa?" Hathaway asked rhetorically.

"I wasn't caught."

Levich that. Havamo imitated Hathaway's tone, "They just asked me about something, but unfortunately my luck is not as good as yours, and I have no one to protect me, so I have become a perennial visitor here, and I am afraid that I will die here in the future." ”

I was very embarrassed.

Hathaway couldn't bear to hear it, and it was also a sigh that a generation of legends had fallen into this fate. However, the two parties are not familiar with each other, and it is impossible for her to do anything for the other.

Levich that. Hawa didn't say anything the church wanted to ask him about, probably because he had been stuck here for a long time, and the conversation went on and on as soon as he started. However, this person has quite a lot of achievements in cultivating magic and alchemy, and many of his words are in one sentence, which gives Hathaway a lot of inspiration.

Right at Hathaway and Levich's. Hawa was talking freely in one of the rooms of the cathedral. Archbishop Stephen, Steven. Kennett and five other bishops are discussing Hathaway.

"I think that no matter who it is, it can't be released, Bishop BeyoncΓ©'s meaning will be very strict with the consequences of death, and we must have an explanation." The bishop who was speaking was about thirty years old, with a natural indifference in his eyes, and he spoke without mercy.

The position of this man in the church is only in Alain. Under Stephen, who was also a bishop in charge of punishment, his name was Sim. Karenin.

"Bishop Karenin, I don't agree with you. If it was really Count Bell who did it, of course we would judge her, but if she didn't do it, just to show the authority of the church and give people an account, it would not only violate the teachings of the goddess, but also affect the relationship between the church and the imperial family, I firmly disagree! ”

The one who spoke was also a bishop, a tall and thin man, and about thirty years old. This man seems to be the same as Sim. Bishop Karenin was a little wrong, raised his voice against it, and when he saw that everyone was looking at him, he said calmly: "Secondly, Count Bell has penetrated the underground dwarven base this time to sabotage their plot. It has also housed hundreds of thousands of refugees, which has contributed so much to the world that if we forcibly detain her or even sentence her to death on the basis of some suspicions, I am afraid that it will cause a strong backlash and damage the image of the Church among the common people! Therefore, we have to finish the matter and give an account to the outside. ”

"yes, that Hathaway. Bell is now an earl, and a great magician with a lot of potential, so he can't be too hasty, so he might as well bring her up for interrogation and see what her situation is. An elderly bishop said, his eyes shining with wisdom.

In the church state, the power of the church is greater than the royal power, and anyone can be tried directly without going through the emperor's majesty, even if the trial is carried out on trumped-up charges, no one dares to object, but in the Odidga Empire, they have restrained a lot, and without conclusive evidence, they do not dare to arrest people without permission.

The words of this old bishop obviously carry a lot of weight. Finally Alain. Archbishop Stephen has decided that he will summon this Count Bell tomorrow morning. (To be continued......)
