When Valian returned home, the words of Pope Innocent were still echoing in his mind:

"Valian, you are a good scientific scholar, not a good politician."

"But it doesn't matter, the power of the pope itself is very limited, and the symbolism of his own position is more important than the authority that the pope has."

"You may not be able to become the best pope, but in the future, under your leadership, the Holy See may be the most powerful in history."

What does this mean exactly?

Although Valian was the head of the Licinian family, he was a symbolic male head of the family, and his career was entirely oriented towards the Holy See and scientific research.

After all, the foundation of the Licinius family is still business, which is in the hands of the family's second daughter Capacille, and at the same time under her control, the family's financial and personnel rights are also under her control - yes, the invisible head of the Licinius family is actually Nola's second sister Capacille.

Talking about things with Capracillin, the other party almost immediately came to the conclusion:

"It's because of my little sister."

"Nola? Why? Valyan was stunned.

"Don't forget she's R4." Capacille muttered, "The last R4 was Julius. Emperor Caesar. ”

"Caesar? Nola? "Valyan is completely unable to connect the first emperor of history with his pure and kind sister.

"Well, next week we are going to sponsor a research grant for a project of the Holy See, and I will talk to the Holy See in person at that time." Capacille was about to touch her phone, then sighed again.

After the end of the magic tide, the production line of the mobile phone has not been restored, and there is no way to contact Xiaomei now.

However, her team should be in the Weissbach family, the rulers of the Duchy of Bavaria, and there should be no problems in the short term.

————————

At the same time, the island of the hearth.

After a certain regiment commander finished his daily training, he suddenly discovered a problem.

I seem to be ...... Got a little fat?

Well, one more suspicious piece of evidence that "this is another world".

If you are intubated in the back of your head to play games, is there still a setting for the character to eat too much and become fat?

But then again, I've been controlling my diet, how can I be out of shape.

Asker thought about it carefully, and realized that he had made a big mistake.

Yes, my diet is very regular, but lately the dishes have become more and more delicious—and it is clear that a certain girl's cooking skills are rising at a terrible rate.

And it's all high-calorie meat......

"What's wrong?" In the kitchen, Nola, who was washing dishes, turned around and asked, "Is it because my food is not delicious?" ”

Asker looked behind her, and from the potato on the dishwasher, several thick shoots had grown, diligently wiping the bowl with leaves, and green stems had grown from the ginger next to her, and they were rubbing the dishwashing agent into the bowl......

The Life III ability gives the Transcendent the ability to manipulate biological tissue, but this is the first time Aske has seen the dishes he uses. He forcibly withdrew his gaze and told Nora about it.

"It's very simple." "The next time I soak the meat in water, I'll just remove the fat tissue." ”

Asker: ..................

Shouldn't the normal way of thinking be to burn less fatty meat? However, the pork knuckle here in Bavaria is really good*** Hua lies in the gelatinous pork skin with a little bit of fat sticked, delicious and springy.

"Oh yes." Nora clasped her hands together and said, "The food reserves in the Fire Island are running out, I have to go out to buy a batch of supplies today, Asker, will you accompany me?" ”

"Oh, good." Asker subconsciously agreed, and then felt that something was wrong, but Nora had already pulled him to teleport out.

Lightning-fast implantation of ideas, success!

Today, Mia was outside guarding the ancient books, and the two teleported to the kitchen of the Weissbach family.

Mia:!!!

Asker: ......

Nola: ......

"Why are you stealing from other people's stuff again?" Asker grabbed Mia by the back collar and lifted her up, only to think that the guy seemed to have gained a lot of weight.

"Because there's nothing left to eat on the island of the hearth!" Mia, who was carried in the air, didn't dare to resist, but just said confidently.

"No wonder the kitchen runs out of food so quickly." Nora couldn't laugh or cry.

Speaking of which, it seems that it was because I fed her a piece of luncheon meat last time, and as a result, she got used to the habit of secretly shaving food in the kitchen all day.

"Don't be embarrassed here." Asker let her down, then pressed her little head, "We're going out to buy food, do you want to go along?" ”

Food? Yes, yes, yes! Mia's eyes lit up, and she was about to speak, only to hear Nora hurriedly say:

"Eh, Mia, didn't you say you were going to play with Mi'er? I'll take care of that book~"

Oh, I look like I'm looking for honey. Mia thought to herself, so she gave the ancient book "Ridiculous Dreams" to Nola, and teleported to the Fire Island.

Implant the thought and make merit again.

The two left Weissbach Palace, and the urban area of Mingxing City was obviously much more prosperous than before.

On the one hand, because of the end of the civil war, the trade routes to Mingxing City from all over the country resumed traffic.

On the other hand, due to the resurgence of the demon tide, there are more and more supernatural creatures outside the disaster. Many villagers in nearby towns and villages also had to settle down near the outskirts of Mingxing, resulting in a rapid increase in the population of the entire urban area.

Of course, the city guard was also enlarged, and it was full of heavily armed patrolling soldiers.

"Wow, this!" Nora pulled Asker into a cake shop, pointed to the cake on the counter and said, "Half-cooked cheese, I haven't eaten it in a long time." ”

"How many do you want, Miss?" The clerk brought the tray, "Which flavor?" ”

"I want six." Nora tapped her finger and said, "Matcha, cocoa, raspberry, caramel, mango, and plain." ”

The clerk expertly took out six kinds of cheesecakes, wrapped them in strips of oiled paper, put them in a box and handed them to her.

Asker took out his wallet and was going to pay, but Nora paid for it directly, and the action was jaw-dropping.

"Aren't we going to buy food reserves?" Leaving the cake shop, Asker couldn't help but ask.

"There's no rush here, it's hard to come out and play, let's eat something first." Nora said with a smile, took out the cheesecake and took a bite, and suddenly made a surprised voice like a deer's chirp, "Woo! Delicious! ”

She handed Asker the half-bitten bite of the cheesecake, who visibly hesitated (why do you always like to give your bite to someone else) but eventually took it.

"Is it delicious?" Nora asked wistfully, pretending not to read her mind.

"Not bad." Asker gave a decent assessment.

"I'll do this, but I can't make so many flavors in the store." Nora clapped her hands with a smile and said, "I'll go back and make it for you to taste." ”

"You're going to go in the direction of the decathlon." "Now we're starting to get into the sweet tooth space." ”

"Of course, it doesn't depend on who I learned my cooking from." Nora curled the corners of her mouth slightly, but couldn't help but laugh.
