Chapter 49: The Sears Change (Part II)
"Captain Slom, this is a specialty of Sears, and it is made from the water cherries of the Kezi River, which is unique here, and cannot be tasted anywhere else. Madison smiled and gave a toast to Slom.
Slum smiled and nodded, and also raised his glass in return: "I heard that the water cherries in the Kezi River are only found in Sears, and even the source of the Kezi River, the Duchy of Kerna, does not grow this plant. ”
"Hehe, there is actually a small piece of the source of the Principality of Kerner, but it was transplanted from here thirty years ago, and if Captain Slum likes it, there are still some stocks in the church, and you can bring back a few barrels when you leave. ”
"Thank you, Archbishop Madison, then," Slom's serious face rarely smiled so much tonight, and he squinted as he drank the wine from his glass.
At the same time, under his desk, there was a piece of cloth like a handkerchief, and when he put down the cup, drops of pale red liquid seeped into the cloth from the tips of his hanging fingers.
This is one of Silom's natural abilities, and it is also the ability he first awakened, after so many years of killing and fighting, he always thought that it would not come in handy, but he didn't expect it to be today......
For the Aeolian Church, Silum has always had no good feelings, so naturally he can't talk about trust, even if he is a knight, so there are some things that have to be guarded against.
Putting down his glass, he continued to chat with Madison, the first archbishop of the Aeolian Church, but glanced at the door out of the corner of his eye.
When they first came in, they were arranged here, and the children were placed next door, saying that the young people on both sides would communicate with each other.
In this regard, the vigilance in Silom's heart was a little more, and he asked with a smile: "I don't know...... When will Pope Garcourt come? ”
Madison smiled: "I'm sorry Captain Slom, the Pope suddenly fell ill in the evening, I'm afraid he won't be able to come, you know, the Pope is old, hmm...... As far as I know, Pope Callando of your church is seventy years old this year, right?"
Slum nodded: "Yes, then I wonder if we can see Pope Garcourt again before leaving?"
Madison's hand stopped in the air and said in embarrassment, "This...... Yes, tomorrow, tomorrow during the day the Pope may personally bid you farewell and send a sincere greeting to Pope Calando. ”
In fact, for the two churches, the sun god also symbolizes the meaning of the harvest, and in the canon of the god of wind, the god of wind was also a god who taught people to plant and hunt, so for wine, there is no special norm for the two sides except for alcohol.
But just when Slom's wine glass was at eye level, there was a sudden sound of ping-pong wine glasses falling to the ground.
Slom's eyes widened suddenly, and he threw the glass out of the air and slammed it into Madison, who didn't move, and the delicate glass exploded in front of him.
Slum was shocked in his heart, he didn't care about it, the subordinates and the priest beside him had fainted weakly, he reached out and was about to pull out the long sword at his waist, although it was not a good weapon, but the other party really did it, and he couldn't sit still.
And just as his hand pressed the hilt of the sword, an invisible force wrapped around him, imprisoning him deadly.
Slom's face turned red, and he moved and moved, but he couldn't break free from the invisible bondage.
"Slum is worthy of Slom, but even if you can escape the secret medicine in the wine, you can't compete with the power given by God. ”
Madison walked slowly up to Slom, and saw that he could not even say a word, but could only try to break free again and again, and could not help laughing, and commanded his men:
"Come, pour the secret medicine down and bring it to the secret room. ”
....................................
Just as Slum was being captured, in the next room, Alena frowned and picked up a piece of fruit, but the dish in front of her didn't move.
Most of the companions who accompanied him were already a little dazed, and the fifteen young trainee knights were already half drunk, and the other half were loudly punching their peers from the Aeolian Church.
For these young boys and girls, where have the children of poor families seen this kind of battle, they naturally learn from others to drink and eat food, while some children of rich families ...... At this time, he was making a fist.
Such an absurd scene made Alena pray to the gods again and again in her heart, but even if she only ate fruit, the smell of alcohol in the house still made her a little dizzy.
The teenagers went round and round and played another game, and Ferrante, who had taken the lead, stepped back and walked over to Alena with his glass, his father was the Chancellor of the Exchequer of Keadir, a sight that was no surprise to him.
"Hiccup...... Alena, did you see Sophia?"
Alena shook her head: "She went out to the bathroom." ”
"Hiccup...... Aren't you best friends? Why didn't you go along?"
"I'm going to watch you. Alena rolled her eyes.
"Hahaha. Ferrante burst out laughing, "I'm the oldest here, I'm ...... Hiccup, I've seen the most, you see us? ha......"
"Where are you going?" Alena shouted helplessly as she looked back at Ferrante, who was laughing and walking towards the door.
I saw Ferrante waving her hand behind her back: "I'll go find Sophia...... Belch. ”
Alena was stunned, thinking that there was no reason for a girl to go to the toilet and a boy to find it? Looking at Ferrante's back as he was about to go out, she got up and wanted to hold him.
However, as soon as Alena stood up, the feeling of dizziness hit again, and it was even more serious, and before she could mobilize her magic skills, she fainted and fell to the ground.
Ferrante, who had reached the door, turned around and wanted to laugh at Alena, but the door suddenly opened, and a figure in armor appeared, and a knife struck him in the back of the neck, knocking him unconscious.
In the courtyard, Madison stood quietly in the doorway, listened to the report of his subordinates, and then commanded:
"I know, those little ones are also filled with secret medicine, tied up and sent to the inn, send someone to watch, those knights of the Church of Light are locked up in the secret room, especially that Slem, show him to me, His Majesty the Pope will personally interrogate him. ”
"Understood, Archbishop. ”
"Wait, count the little guy who caught him from outside the toilet, pick a few knights, and burn him at the stake tomorrow at noon on the street, and I want all believers to know that the Church of Light has come boldly to assassinate the Pope!"
"Understood, but the archbishop, the fire is at the stake at the corner of the street, and the patrol should say hello. ”
Madison smiled and shook his head: "No, Your Majesty already knows about it." ”
....................................
palace
Outside the dormitory of the current king of Honoris, Walton I, the second prince was pacing anxiously, and when the clerk came out of the door of the dormitory, he hurriedly walked up.
"What did Father say?"
"Second Prince, Your Majesty said that everything will be done according to the will of the church. The clerk said calmly.
"No way, I saw those Kaiadir people enter the Church of the Wind God, and the burns at the stake at the corner of the street were laid out at night, did you tell your father? What is the church for? Are they going to provoke a war between the two countries?"
"Your Majesty already knows everything, but ...... He didn't tell me more, he just told me not to get involved in the affairs of the Aeolian Church. ”
"What are they going to do? This has already affected the Empire! This is a matter of diplomacy! Their usual small actions are the Empire's acquiescence, but now what does this mean? They are going to burn the exchange group in the bright light? Father really dare not fight those barbarians in Kaiadir?"
The second prince pointed to the door of the dormitory and shouted, as if to say it to Walton I, but after a while, there was still no sound from inside.
The second prince was a little impatient, and turned around to force his way into the palace while the clerk was not paying attention, but was stopped by a pair of big hands, who were the chief guards of the palace.
"Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, Your Majesty has decreed that no one is allowed to enter or leave the palace. ”
The second prince looked at the chief guard in disbelief, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that something must have happened, since this was the case, it was better to leave the palace first and make plans as soon as possible.
But just as he was about to leave, two groups of heavily armed guards came up and blocked his retreat, and immediately the chief of the guard was heard speak:
"Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, how do you know so much about Sears?"
"What do you mean, what are you doing here?" the second prince stared at the chief of the guard with wide eyes.
"Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, Your Majesty has an order, please stay in the palace, come here, please ask the second prince to go down and rest. ”
....................................
In the dormitory, Cassia sat on the beams of the room, quietly watching everything that happened below, and couldn't help but sigh, "In feudal society, usurping power and seizing the throne is really a common occurrence. ”
And just below Cassia I, Walton I lay on the bed, having lost his breath.
And the third prince calmly covered him with a quilt, and said slowly by his side:
"Father, I will rule over Honoris for you, and I will take back the lost glory of my ancestors from Kaiadir with my own hands. ”
Cassia shook his head, thinking to himself that if you kid wants to be the king, just say it, is it a pre-existing ambition or a pre-existing ideal ambition?
Cassia then disappeared into the dormitory and arrived at the Church of the Anemo God, where Sophia was locked up with several knights, apparently to be burned at the stake tomorrow.
The other boys and girls were tied up and sent back to the inn where they lived.
Cassia scratched his head, thinking that Alena had actually been tricked, but yes, magic is a kind of ability to put it bluntly, and with Alena's current age, it is indeed not highly resistant.
Resisting the cardinal archbishop at the beginning was indeed Alena's subconscious counterattack, but behind the scenes, Cassia also helped.
Looking at Sears, who was already turbulent, Cassia shook his head, and returned to the Maple Leaf Hotel in a flash, drinking tea leisurely.
