Chapter Ninety-Nine: Force
After some time, Ferranch left the Southern Province and continued his journey south.
Cassia was also on the border of the southern provinces, giving up on continuing to follow and observe Ferranche.
He didn't mean anything else, he just thought this person was very interesting.
In the current social environment, a person like him who can come from a background can have the idea of speaking for the poor, and he is really a talent.
As for his staff member Dunn, the first batch of students of the Magic Academy, there is no intention of embarrassing, and he still reuses it as before, and it can also be seen that Ferranch is indeed a broad-minded person.
After leaving Ferranche's group, Cassia didn't stay too long in the southern provinces and headed for Sears, and after all these years, he was eager to study Matt's awakening.
The southern province was actually in the middle of Kaiadir, still far from Sears, and by the time Cassia had either flown or walked to the border, a month had passed.
At this time, Tria, Ferrante and Ferranche's father, Rono, the finance minister of Kaiadir, was sitting in the secret room of the study, waiting for the arrival of the nobles.
If there are many 'like-minded' people in the usual meetings, then the number of people in today's meeting can be counted with one pair of hands.
Because today is not only about discussing the affairs of the nobility, but also the day when Rono decides to start seizing power, it is natural that he invites his henchmen who are trustworthy and willing to support him.
After a while, the bell in the secret room kept ringing, and in addition to Rono, a total of eight nobles with high-ranking upper bodies entered the secret room.
These people were not only great nobles themselves, but they were also imperial officials, involved in all aspects of military and domestic affairs, and even a cabinet member was among them.
"Rono, didn't you just get together once yesterday, what's going on today?"
"Kaiadir is stormy, and it's normal for you and me to get together once a day. Someone next to him took the lead in pushing back.
Rono smiled, and looked at the personnel who had arrived at the meeting, first clearing their throats, and then said, "Guys, I think the time is almost up. ”
Just one sentence, everyone's expressions changed instantly, some people looked unexpected, and some people were surprised.
"Ron, isn't it a little early, Kaiadiel is in a mess right now, and the attitude of the church is not clear. ”
"yes, who knows what that girl thinks. ”
Rono glanced at them: "Early, I'm going to see the God of Light if I wait any longer, or will I wait until my eldest son leads a group of poor people and hits Tria with a hoe, and then I will stand up?"
"But what about the church?"
"Bernal?" Rono turned to look at the deputy head of the Paladins in armor beside him.
Bernal nodded: "I have inquired clearly, the church will not care about this matter, as long as the new king also believes in the god of light, even if it is the pope, he will not interfere at will." ”
"Heh!" someone chuckled, "Believe in the light, Rono said you believe in the light, do you believe in it yourself?"
With a smile on his face and no words, Rono got up and walked towards the lampstand on the wall, twisting the lampstand, and there was a sound of stones rubbing, and a stone door appeared on the side of the secret room.
With a candle in his hand and a smile on the corner of his mouth, Rono stretched out his hand to everyone: "Everyone, please follow me." ”
The nobles glanced at each other and followed Rono in with curiosity.
The chamber was still as dark as ever, and everyone followed behind Rono, staring at the candle in his hand.
After a while, Rono stopped and lit a brazier next to the stone platform with a candle, and the fire suddenly illuminated the secret room, and Rono also turned sideways to get out of the way.
Everyone squinted at the stone platform, with some doubts in their eyes, only to see that on the stone platform, a dark green one-eyed was quietly placed on the shelf.
"This ...... What is this?"
"What does that mean, Rono?"
Rono smiled and looked at Bernal, who was frowning and thinking.
As the deputy head of the Holy Knights of Light, Bernal is a symbol of the Church's strength, but they also learn the classics from an early age, but the years of conquest and killing have almost forgotten him.
Bernalmo rubbed his chin and thought back to his childhood memories, which seemed to sound familiar.
Rono, who had waited for a long time and didn't make a sound, shook his head and spit out two words: "Light." ”
But everyone still didn't understand what he meant, but Bernal's eyes suddenly widened, and his palms unconsciously clenched the long sword at his waist.
"Bright...... Light...... One-eyed...... Eye ......" Bernal frowned and looked at Rono, "Eye of Horus?!"
"It seems that Captain Bernal's knowledge is still very solid. Rono smiled smugly.
"This ...... This can't be, how can this be the Eye of Horus?"
"As a devout disciple of the God of Light, can't Captain Bernal feel the pure power of light above?"
Bernal clenched his teeth tightly, the incredulity in his eyes gradually turned into acceptance, and looking at the dazed faces of the nobles around him, he opened his mouth to explain:
"The Eye of Horus, it is recorded in the church texts, the legend says that the god of light visited the earth and saw that his children were struggling to survive, so he sent an oracle to guide his children to defeat nature, and selected a king from among them, and gave him the eye of a god, the eye of Horus. ”
Bernal tried his best to calm the churning in his heart, stared at Rono tightly and continued: "And the chosen one is the one who was there back then...... The Iron King, the King of the Stars, is the first king of legend to shed the blood of the gods. ”
"What!?"
"This can't be!Rono, where did you find this stone!?"
Everyone was taken aback, such a big origin, they couldn't accept it for a while.
Bernal frowned, and turned to look at the nobleman who had just spoken, who was the minister in the cabinet.
"This is clearly recorded by the Church, the Iron King relied on the Eye of Horus to lead mankind to defeat nature and create a human kingdom, and there is indeed a pure and extreme power of light on it, this power, I have only felt from Pope Alena. ”
"This ......"
Bernal's words left them speechless, and apart from the shock on their faces, all that was left was to look at each other.
Turning around, Bernal stepped forward and asked Rono, "Why is it here?"
Rono smiled slightly, the wrinkles on his face seemed to be full of confidence: "Why can't it be here? Who can prove that the Bussey family is really the descendants of the Iron King?"
"Don't you ......?"
"That's right! I'm the direct descendant of the Iron King, and I'm the orthodox royal family of Kayadir! You're lucky enough to have chosen me early. ”
......
......
The Church of Light, Bernal walked on the path with a complicated expression, he had forgotten how the people who attended the meeting came out, and the impact of this incident on them was tantamount to the light ceremony that the gods came to in person back then.
After thinking about it for a long time, Bernal looked at the Great Hall of Light in front of him and walked in.
In the main hall, Alena and the three were discussing the affairs of the Aeolus Church together, and Sophia was the first to hear the footsteps outside the temple, and one dodged and hid in the dark.
Alena and Ferrante turned around and looked into Bernal and saluted them.
"Your Majesty, Head of the Mission. ”
"Any news, Bernal?"
"Holy Father, Ro......" Bernal glanced at Ferrante, "Rono has already decided to act. ”
The two looked at each other, and Alena knew that Ferrante was not easy to speak, so she asked, "What time is it?"
"Half a month later. ”
Alena held the canon behind her back and put her hands behind her back, "Continue to observe, and report anything to the church immediately." ”
"Yes!" Bernal agreed, turning and leaving the hall.
Sophia also came out of the shadows at this time, "It seems that things have come together." ”
"You don't have to worry about me, I'll take care of the affairs of the Aeolus Church with all my might. Ferrante said with a calm face.
"Okay, but you have to be careful, Sophia, the Inquisition will speed up the infiltration, and we must not allow the Aeolus Church to complete the sacrificial ritual. ”
"Don't worry, leave it to me. ”
The three of them were silent for a moment, and then said some specific arrangements, and Ferrante and Sophia left the hall together.
Alena was the only one left inside, quietly looking up at the tall statue of light.
"Come out. ”
"His Majesty the Pope. Bennal went and returned, and returned to the main hall again.
"Why don't you go, what do you need to avoid your captain?"
Bernal stepped forward with his head bowed and fell to one knee in front of Alena and the Idol of Light.
"Your Majesty, I found something in Rono's house?"
Alena lifted her eyelids and turned to wait for his next step.
"The Eye of Horus is the eye of the gods recorded in the texts, the Eye of Horus! It is in the hands of Rono, claiming to be a descendant of the Iron King. ”
Alena narrowed her eyes expressionlessly, "Are you sure?"
"Certainty is the purest force of light. ”
Alena's eyes fell on Bernal, and she didn't know what she was thinking in her head.
After a long while, she spoke, "I know, you go back and continue to spy on Rono, this matter is rotten in the stomach." ”
"Understood, His Majesty!"
Looking at the figure of Bernal leaving, Alena frowned, the texts in the church that only the Pope can read do record that the royal family of Kayadir is not descended from the Iron King.
But if the Eye of Horus is true, and Rono is really a descendant of the Iron King, then Ferrante......
