His reluctance aroused the jealousy of another group of clergy in the Ottoman court, who belonged to the Orthodox Church. Ever since Greece and the Balyu Peninsula were conquered by the Ottoman army, the Orthodox Church has been an important faction in the Ottoman court and enjoys a special status.

These Orthodox clergy were very repulsive to the Catholic Church in Western Europe, and Louis, who was highly used by the Ottoman Empire, naturally became the object of their disgust and ostracism. Although Louis stated several times that he was not a missionary, that he did not care about the difference between the Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church, and that he swore that he could convert to the Orthodox Church or even Islam at any time, it was still to no avail, and he soon lost his unreliable favor, and was finally sent to a port off the coast of Greece to supervise the construction of warships. From the moment he left Constantinople, he knew that everything he wanted had been lost.

Life on the coast was boring, so boring that Louie almost forgot his original dream.

In the hope of a change of heart for the minister, he wandered countless times on the sands of the Aegean Sea. The lazy sea breeze mixed with sand grains and a hint of sea smell blew on his face, making him just want to fall asleep quickly under the blue sky and white clouds. If you stay here, you will not feel the happy atmosphere, nor will you not appreciate the quiet and indifferent joy of life after excluding ambition and anxiety. The air and the gentle sound of the waves are full of dreams. The sand whispered, sometimes melancholy, sometimes cheerful, sometimes golden, sometimes dim, but it did not resonate with Louis in the slightest.

Entering his third year, Louis finally realized that the minister could never change his mind again, and that his dream could never be realized in the Ottoman Empire. One afternoon, looking at the sun sinking on the sea and the clouds in the sky, he finally had no choice but to realize that he had no future here in the Ottoman Empire.

He called his servant and asked him to pack himself, and in this way, one evening, with what little money he had, Louis and his servant quietly left the shores and ushered into a new chapter in their lives.

After carefully assessing his shape, Louis felt that he probably didn't have many opportunities to get ahead in the big 6 in Europe, so he set his sights on outside of Europe - he planned to go to the Americas.

Having made this decision, he immediately plundered all the money at his disposal, and then set off directly with his servants, and the adventurer spirit was disguised as the passion of a missionary, and he disguised himself as a missionary, and thus ran away to America.

At this time, the Americas were being conquered by the Spaniards step by step, in Mexico and Peru, the original glorious civilizations were wiped out, the indigenous people were either massacred, or they had to be forced to convert to Catholicism, and the Spanish Empire had a growing need for missionaries, who needed missionaries to reform the minds of the local natives and explore their own paths by the way.

As soon as he arrived in the Americas, he actively explored the areas where the Spanish army had not yet set foot, and the deep mountains and plateaus and primeval jungles did not become an obstacle for him, not only to find the lamb who had not yet been inspired by God, but also to find the wealth that had not yet been revealed.

For the sake of some unbelievable rumors, he did not hesitate to set foot in the most dangerous jungles, where he wanted to find the last buried treasure of the Incas, and he took his servants to every remote corner of the Americas, and the local priests all marveled at the tenacity of his missionary spirit.

However, after a long period of hard work, Louis did not get a satisfactory result. He frantically walked through the ruins left by the Incas, trying to find gold or anything of value in them, and in the end he was disappointed, just as the Incas had been slaughtered, and the riches were long gone, leaving only a few remnants of a civilization that proved that a civilization had survived.

After more than 100 years of aggression and expansion, the Spaniards had basically controlled the Americas, and shiploads of gold and silver were constantly being transported from the Americas to all parts of the world, leaving him less and less to dig for. Even the land has long been turned into a collection of estates for the local wealthy.

After several years of adventure without any money, Louis's thirst for money finally eroded his sanity, and by chance, he tried to embezzle the gold plundered by a Spanish officer, only to be discovered by the officer, and in the horror of being hunted down, Louis was forced to embark on a voyage out of the Americas and on a journey to Asia.

The ship, carrying many passengers and a large amount of silver, sailed to the Philippines, a Spanish colony in Asia.

At this time, the Philippines was prosperous because of its trade with Asia, and large quantities of silver were transported from the Americas, and then exchanged for porcelain, silk and spices from the East and transported to Europe, forming a huge commercial network. After arriving in the Philippines, Louis was at odds with the local Catholic clergy because of his secretive background, and it took a lot of effort to get the local church to confirm his missionary status.

After gaining a foothold, Louis began to chase his dream. Because it had been ruled by the Spaniards for many years, the Philippines, like the Americas, did not offer much room for outsiders like him, so Louis had to look elsewhere in Asia.

After a few rounds, he followed a merchant ship to the Japanese port of Nagasaki, disguised himself as a missionary, and began to move around Japan, constantly looking for opportunities for money.

Although he initially wanted to learn Japanese on his own, he soon realized that Japanese was the most difficult language he had ever learned, and that there was no place to start with a large number of kanji from the Big 6 in addition to kana, so he had to abandon the idea and mingle with the local Catholics instead.

Fortunately, after many years of missionary work by Spanish and Portuguese missionaries, Japan already had a large number of Catholics in areas such as Kitakyushu and Nagasaki, and many of them learned Spanish and Latin, so Louis did not encounter any obstacles, and soon became a member of the local Catholic circle, and also initially established his personal reputation in the local area.

For the sake of his own financial dreams, Louis, like most missionaries at the time, used his medical knowledge to see several patients in the local area, and accidentally cured several people, including local merchants, so he was also grateful by the merchants. Using the influence he had built-up, Louis encouraged the merchant to participate in the maritime trade, making the merchant earn a lot of money, and then receiving a lot of benefits from it.

The missionary, the adventurer, was almost forty years old this year, but because of his many years of experience abroad, he looked a little older, and his long golden head had begun to turn white, and there were a few wrinkles on his forehead, and he looked almost like a fifty-year-old man, but his sharp and ambitious eyes did not make one doubt that he was old and deaf.

His forehead was broader, his face was pale, and he always wore a black coat with a stern expression, he was pious and dignified, and because he was respected by the locals and earned a sum of money, his expression became more solemn, and the whole person seemed to be a model for the missionary.

However, just when Louis thought that his dream would finally come true this time, as if God was deliberately trying to hinder him, a new calamity came.

At this time, Japan was transitioning from the chaotic Warring States period to the relatively stable Tokugawa shogunate era, and the domestic warlord melee slowly came to an end, especially in 1615, after the Japanese general Tokugawa Ieyasu attacked Osaka Castle and killed the previous ruler Toyotomi family, the rule of the Tokugawa shogunate in Japan has gradually stabilized.

After establishing direct rule over Japan with the sword, the Tokugawa family sought to consolidate its rule in other areas, and ideological rule, as an important link, certainly did not escape the control of the Tokugawa shogunate. In order to consolidate his ideological domination, Tokugawa Ieyasu deliberately supported Buddhism and rejected the spread of Catholicism in Japan.

At the same time, although Japan had entered an era of relative peace, the oppression and exploitation of the peasants by the lords in various places was still the same as in the past, and the Japanese peasants, who could not bear the oppression, rose up one after another, and at the same time took foreign Catholicism as their spiritual sustenance.

The shogunate, of course, did not sit idly by, and they did not believe that their own oppression had caused the peasants to revolt, but that Catholicism had corrupted the hearts of the people, so they decided to ban the spread of Catholicism in Japan.

In 1612, the Japanese shogunate first issued a ban on religion in the shogunate's own direct jurisdiction, prohibiting Western missionaries from preaching, and the following year it extended this decree to the whole country, and in 1616, the Japanese shogunate extended this prohibition to foreign trade, stipulating that European ships could only dock and trade in the ports of Hirado and Nagasaki

As a member of the Catholic priesthood, Louis was of course also regarded as a dangerous element by the shogunate, and the local officials summoned him directly and ordered him not to preach in Japan, and if he dared to violate it, he would be in danger of his life.

Louis, who was already not very interested in missionary work, of course agreed to this order easily, but the Japanese shogunate's policy of restricting overseas trade made him bitter. Under the pressure of the shogunate's sword, he had to stop his activities throughout Japan and return to the port of Nagasaki, where he intended to continue his career.
