Archduke Barria said such a thing, which made Harvey, as a bishop, feel unacceptable for a moment. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In fact, before such an exchange with the new Grand Duke, the Bishop also heard some rumors about the process of the Grand Duke's ascension to the throne. Although it is inevitably mixed with the content of some small citizens who spread false rumors, there are also some that sound more credible.

For example, it is rumored that the Grand Duke of Baria actually relied on the help of the Night Race to finally defeat the rebels;

It is also rumored that the Night Race and the Grand Duke of Baria have made a secret agreement, with the former promising to protect the new regime and the latter giving the Night Race proper freedom within the borders.

If this is only said from the mouth of one person, the credibility is naturally not worth mentioning. But the reality is that half of the people in Ontario are whispering about it, and some of the details are very credible.

And now, after hearing Archduke Barria say such a thing, Bishop Harvey suddenly couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty, after I returned to Ontariel, I heard some rumors about the Night Race. These rumors are the exact opposite of what the Principality proclamation says, but it says that the Principality has united with the Night Race in order to resist the rebels. ”

With that, Bishop Harvey looked at Archduke Barria, as if trying to see some clues in the other man's face.

To be honest, Archduke Barria was a little unhappy with Bishop Harvey's questioning. As the current supreme leader of the principality, his identity is completely different from before. However, as a bishop, Harvey dared to speak to himself with such an attitude, which was a great disrespect in the eyes of the Grand Duke of Barria.

In the end, it was the old nobleman who had been tempered in the upper game, and the Grand Duke of Baria had already cultivated a kind of ability to be happy and angry, and he pretended to be surprised: "There are such rumors in the principality? It seems that since I took the position of Grand Duke, there are still many people who are not convinced and want to deliberately do something. For such rebels, the Principality Security Force will send them where they need to go. ”

This threatening-sounding remark suddenly made Harvey's face a little ugly.

However, the Grand Duke of Baria did not give the bishop time to fully chew on the meaning of his words, and continued to ask rhetorically in an aggressive manner: "The bishop does not think that what these people say is true, does he?" I acknowledge that the current duchy decree is beneficial to the Night Race, but the purpose of doing so is to maintain the stability of the Principality of Finir, not to collude with the Night Race, as is rumored. ”

Bishop Harvey couldn't help but be speechless. Although as a bishop, he is the leader of the Light Race in the Duchy of Finir, but he has to lower his posture in the face of the Grand Duke. Since the other party refused to admit it, he had no reason or right to ask any further questions - even if the truth was in front of him, he had to pretend not to see it, and instead chose to accept the Grand Duke's statement.

Due to the restrictions of the Duchy's decree and the instructions of the Grand Duke of Efe, the two hundred Holy Knights of the Alliance, who were originally intended to be used to eliminate the Night Race, were respectfully returned to the Alliance after a period of good food and drink in the Duchy. Some of the priests and paladins who had come to their aid from other cities in the duchy were left behind to form Ontariel's new clergy system.

Bishop Harvey, whose power has been greatly weakened, sometimes feels a sudden burst of fire, and even has an urge to lead the Light Race to openly break with the Duke of Barria.

But at this time, he had to use reason to convince himself: even if he led the Bright Race to fight with the principality, it was likely to end in failure. Because the other party not only holds the public ** team in his hands, but also the secret support of the night race. And what about your own side? Good generals fled, and the troops were insufficient.

Endure, can only endure.

……

In an alley not too far from the original site of the First Church of Ontare, a middle-aged man in a white robe was slowly walking towards the other end of the alley.

This middle-aged man was a priest who had come from another city in the Duchy of Fenier the other day. Since the Ontario rebellion was affected by the Posador rebellion, clergy from all over the Principality have continued to enter the Principality, in the name of support, but in fact to gain a place in the re-establishment of the Ontario priesthood system.

And Pastor William clearly falls into this category. Luckily, having reached the quasi-gold level, he was favored by the Bishop because of his abilities, and became a part of the future First Church, and was temporarily responsible for managing the reconstruction of the First Church.

Half an hour earlier, William had been reporting to the Bishop on the rebuilding of the First Church. It was undoubtedly an honor for him to be able to communicate with the bishop in person, and it was a great honor for him to praise him.

Remembering what had just happened, William's steps became brisk. In such a dark night without moonlight, not only was there no light in the whole alley, but there was not even the sound of rodents crawling, so his footsteps were particularly clear.

"Knock knock—"

But when he reached the middle of this long alley, he felt that something was not quite right. Human feelings, although sometimes unjustified, are in many cases very accurate.

Pastor William looked left and right, didn't notice anything unusual, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly. After silently saying something in his mouth, a silver holy light lit up in his hand.

But at the same time as this light appeared, a huge black shadow suddenly appeared at the end of the alley.

From the moment the priest saw the dark shadow, he concluded that it was definitely not a human being, because the width of the black shadow was much greater than the height, and if it was a human being, it would only have this effect.

The shadow blocked at the end of the alley, and then it didn't move.

Although there was some faint uneasiness in his heart, as a devout follower of the power of the Light, and that he would soon enter the gold level, Pastor William was not too alarmed. In his opinion, the guy in front of him is just a magical beast at most, as long as it is not the kind that defends the sky, he can still deal with it.

Thinking of this, he gathered the holy light power in his body to the surface of his body, forming a holy light shield. The brilliance in his hand also skyrocketed in an instant, not only to make his vision clearer, but also to overpower the other party in terms of momentum. At the moment, if you are alone, you may not be able to win against a demonic beast, so it is best to scare the other party away with this power.

However, the huge black shadow did not make any movement, as if it did not pay attention to the dazzling holy light, and remained at the mouth of the alley, just waiting for Pastor William to step forward.
