When the Templar branch was expelled, the paladins of Diefonde became a rare class, and today, there are two apparently high-ranking paladins walking and chatting in the most prosperous business district of Difende.

"Oh, it turns out that you came here to perform official business, and you were sent here just after the end of the war, it seems that the church headquarters also attaches great importance to the war situation here?"

The female knight nodded, there is no need to deny this, the arrival of the envoy has already explained it.

"When the Orlan Empire was in a stalemate, no one expected the north to win first, which simply shocked the countries, this is the beginning of this holy war, coupled with the heavy gift from Donglan at this time, the Senate and His Majesty are very happy, so they sent us to commend us."

"Commendation? That Roland is not easy to deal with, and it is difficult to come up with a reward that can satisfy him. Besides, since Dong Lan sent the holy relics, it is impossible to return a few words of verbal thanks. Are the high-level bigwigs willing to bleed? ”

".......Although it is still a secret, since it will be announced sooner or later, it doesn't hurt to sue you. This time, Kaloma I may have given him an unbelievable honor......"

"Red-winged Vulture" Avella is very grateful to the young paladin in front of her, if he hadn't appeared in time and made compensation for himself, I am afraid that this time he would have been disgraced and thrown home, if he was chased to the envoy to ask for debts because he could not compensate the civilians, it would be really disgraceful.

And just when she was in trouble, the young paladin came out, although I don't know how this northern paladin gained respect in this hostile territory, but judging by the attitude of the other party and the people around her, who quickly softened. He seems to be very popular.

And judging from the frequency of passers-by taking the initiative to salute along the way. For Diefend, who clearly has some prejudices about the Holy Light profession. It's incredible.

"Perhaps, he can help with the current predicament."

Avella had already made up her mind to introduce the paladin named Rollo to the Legate, and the information and connections that the Landlord Snake could provide were exactly what the Legation needed.

At this time, Rollo asked about the mission of the envoy's visit, considering that the other party was obviously also a member of the paladin, coupled with the favor of being helped, Avella casually talked about the purpose of her trip.

"It's not a great secret. But the political meaning of the representative is very important, and it is a little sensitive, please don't spread it for the time being, especially not to let the Donglan royal family know. ”

"Of course, I guarantee in the name of the Holy Light that I will never leak it to any Donglan people."

Seeing the Rollo Paladin in front of her vouching for the Holy Light, Avella was even more impressed.

"This time His Holiness has given him the title of a saint! The object of the gift is the Prince Roland, who has the reputation of 'Shining Son'. ”

"St. Roland? How can it be? ”

"yes, totally incomprehensible. I don't even know what the Senate and His Holiness the Pope think, can the title of St. (ST) be given casually? Or to a living Gentile. Maybe he was a model of paladins in the past, maybe recovering the relics was indeed a commendable achievement, maybe he also received a proposal for a title, but the past is only the past. Look at this city, it is full of filthy undead, and how can he bestow such a noble title and the honor of a saint on an evil man. This is simply a disgrace to the entire Templar Church. ”

While speaking, the female knight stomped her feet angrily, the dissatisfaction accumulated these days has overflowed, in front of the two elders, she only dared to sulk, at this time, she encountered an opportunity to vent, complaining again and again.

But it's no wonder she's so upset, the title of St. (ST) is generally given to saints recognized by the Templar Church, and it is basically equivalent to a title that will be sealed after death, and this is not just a title, it represents the recognition of the God of Light and the Templar Church, even if it is glorious, it is also a substantial identity.

This title will also be added before the nation, representing the most devout faith and the favor of the god of light, and the major superpowers have squeezed their heads to grab a holy title, and only a few ancient empires such as San Antonio have obtained it with the contributions of countless years in the past.

"What the hell is the God of Light thinking, how could he suddenly give a big gift."

For me, it would be a lot of benefits to get this title.

For example, for the sake of the reputation of the Church and the eternal purity of the light, the saints are infallible, and if a saint does any evil deeds, it will be regarded as not happening, which is the perfect refuge.

The title of saint cannot be given casually, and no matter how many merits a person makes, it is impossible to remain infallible throughout his life.

Because of this, this title has basically become the patent of the dead, and there are not no living saints in history, but most of them are fanatical believers in the Templar Church, and most of them are related to the miracles of the God of Light.

That year, when the Holy Light of despair finally shone in the sky above Difende, there were many different voices in the church, and in just two years, he went from a bronze paladin to a legend, which was a miracle in itself. The pure light of despair was seen as a miracle, and the Bishop did offer to give Roland the title of saint, but of course, it was denied.

Now that the information from all sides has been put together, I almost know what is going on.

It was probably that His Majesty the Pope, who had just taken office, received this great gift and wanted to reward something, and then considering the historical mention of yì, he gave the title of saint, but obviously the envoys saw the situation here and had their own ideas, so they hesitated.

"No, how troublesome a lively sage is, they should think about it, just because of this reason, giving too much, there must be some information that has not been collected, this little girl doesn't want to be a person who can hide her heart, then, maybe even she doesn't know."

But keep trying, at least yes, maybe there's anything else to gain.

“…… This is a decision of the Pope's crown, so let's be cautious. Although I am not qualified to say anything, I also feel that the man is not worthy of the honor of being a saint. He never had a god of light in his mind. Don't the rest of the Holy See have an opinion? ”

His opinion was recognized by the young knight in front of him. Avey nodded uncontrollably.

"Yes, it's completely incomprehensible, there is a lot of controversy in the church, and I still have reservations, but when I get here, it's strange to see these heretics who don't obey the teachings of the Holy Light, as well as the spirits of the dead in broad daylight, not to condemn him as a heretic. His Holiness must have been deceived. would make such an absurd decision. But ......"

"But?"

"Actually, it's nothing, it's just a personal guess. Perhaps it is hoped that a branch of the Templar Church will be established here, and it is also possible that the relationship between the two sides can be eased through the title of saint conferred on Guò. ”

I nodded, this is all expected, even if the God of Law is established as the state religion, the territory will allow the branches of other gods of order to exist.

And although it was tough, I was able to accept the new Templar Chapter, which was not only a political need, but also a high practical value.

Although the power of the law is in many ways the power of the Light. It also surpasses the power of the Light in punishing the wicked, but in terms of healing. It is still the patent of the power of the Holy Light, and there are too few Holy Light professionals on our side, which is also a very disadvantageous factor.

In fact, it is precisely the unique advantage of the Holy Light Power in healing that makes its legend of healing the wounds of the world endlessly favorable, and it is also difficult for countries to refuse the spread of branches of the Holy Light Church and Holy Light professionals within their borders.

What Avella said makes a lot of sense, but .......

"It's still not enough, the deep hatred of the eternal night period is not so easy to resolve, and it is not so simple to grant the status of a saint, which is equivalent to emptying all the past grudges. Unjustified kindness is dangerous, especially if it comes from past enemies. ”

I pondered it, but I still found nothing, and looking at Avella's grudgeful look, I knew there was no point in asking.

“…… Looks like she doesn't know. ”

And on the side of the street, under the large tent that has been erected, the undead knights are preparing for the show, and the opening performance of the Death Crown Circus is about to take place on time.

Death Knights in pumpkin hats are laughing at each other, bone dragons in broomstick decorations and lichs trying to ride broomsticks are competing, the Headless Horseman who can go straight to the field without makeup is suitable for praising polo with his head, and the Skeleton General is reliving his turntable stunt as a Juggernaut.

"Damn the undead! May the Heavenly Fire purify you! ”

Looking at the undead knights who were rehearsing the show, feeling the powerful power of death, Avella gritting her teeth, and the dark beings in front of her who cursed in a low voice.

I could see an undisguised hatred in the eyes of the middle knight, and it seemed that her hatred for the undead was not just because of her profession.

Just as I was about to ask something, a familiar figure appeared on the street corner, and he seemed to be looking for something.

"Master Estrada! Are you here for me? ”

As Avella hurried towards the figure, she didn't notice that the young knight behind her, who was going to introduce her to the legations, had quietly disappeared into the shadows.

And Estrada's first reaction when he saw Avella was stunned, he seemed to see the breath of an acquaintance from the female knight, and immediately asked.

"Who were you just with?"

"....... just right, Master Estrada, let me introduce you to someone, he is also a local paladin, he helped me, and he is familiar with this place, Rollo, this is Master Estrada, Rollo? Human? ”

Looking back, the friendly young paladin had vanished without a trace.

Soon, after learning about the appearance and characteristics of the paladin who was eager to help others, Estrada's face turned blue, and he only squeezed out a sentence in the middle of a sound.

“…… Let's talk about it later. ”

In the alley on the side, looking at the paladin group who left in a hurry, I also breathed a sigh of relief, the shadow of the famous tree, the pressure on me from the "strongest paladin" is really not small, and if I am caught by him, it is really a little troublesome.

"Hey, why don't you go and meet your mentor, I haven't seen you for so many years, and it seems a little rude to hide when you meet. Anyway, he taught you back then, it's too affectionate. ”

“…… I still taught you your swordsmanship, and I haven't seen you be so polite to me. ”

I remembered that I was rampaging through thousands of troops and charging at me. The hand of light who also shouted "My mistakes are corrected by me". I just felt a headache. Unlike the young Avella, whether it is intelligence and experience, or combat power and the strength under his command, it can be said that the invincible Estrada is very difficult to deal with.

There are so many paladins as a basic class, and the advanced classes of paladins are countless, and the fact that other paladins can convince them of being "the strongest" already says a lot about it.

But for me, his extraordinary prowess is only part of the story. As one of the most senior paladins, his connections and prestige even surpass those of previous popes, and that is the most fatal.

If he says "the evil Roland must be defeated", I'm afraid that more than seventy percent of the paladins and priests will regard me as a mortal enemy, and I will have a lot of fun.

It was precisely because of his efforts that the paladins and priests and the upper bishops almost turned their faces, and the so-called holy war did not have an army of paladins that should be the main force, but during the Battle of the Eternal Night, he and the knights under his command were the sworn enemies who gave me the most headaches.

Look at this still young figure. I don't even know what to do anymore.

"Poof, that's true." When I'm troubled. Adam, who had no heart and no lungs, suddenly remembered something and snickered.

"What are you laughing at? Eat too much. "This guy can make me very upset every time.

Adam, who was crouching, laughed breathlessly, and waved his hand halfway.

"No, no. It's just that I recently heard Heloise talk about the tradition that your master and apprentice have always been killed by apprentices, and I still didn't believe it at first, but now it seems that some things have to be believed. ”

"You see, Heroise taught you back then, and was cheated by you, and Emira taught you, and she was cheated by you. That's two. ”

Not to mention, Adam also pulled his fingers and began to count with a clear eye.

"You taught Eliza, and in the end she cut you down, and the third, Estrada taught you, and in the end she will meet with a sword. Four of you, you are really powerful, it has become a curse, and you dare to accept apprentices. Look at how well-behaved my little Anne is, I don't think Renee and Grena are not fuel-efficient lamps, you are not afraid to repeat the mistakes of the past...... What do you do with your sword drawn? ”

[System prompt: You...]

"Shut up, too!"

[I haven't said anything yet]

"Are there good words? Isn't it just those spoof titles and damage to me, if not, if I guess wrong, you can continue to say. ”

【……】

The silence of the system (default) made me feel even more miserable, I silently drew my sword, remembered the past that was also killed by Anne in "history", remembered the stab in the back of the elven apprentice that Adam didn't know, and the depression in my heart had found a target to vent.

"I just remembered the one you missed............ I didn't teach you back then, you didn't cut me yet! Today, I'm going to clean up the portal! ”

After a long fight...... Okay, I'll admit that I suffered a small loss, and accidentally misestimated the difference in strength between the two sides, but Adam is definitely not easy to do, he underestimated my current brute strength, and I am also a brute with 30 points of strength!

Although that girl turned into a panda eye, that guy was actually embarrassed to use his demigod-level strength to crush me, a rookie rookie gold, and I was beaten a little more...... Once we came to an agreement, we finally got down to business.

"Little Red and Anne are here, and I called you to pick them up."

As a representative of the underworld, Anne came over with the envoy group, accompanied by Xiaohong, who finally woke up, and I was really a little worried about not seeing her for so long.

"Then you beat me into a panda eye. How to pick up people. ”

"I'm not the same, you can't do it."

"Wait a minute, you have to give a lecture to the newbie, and prepare a little."

"Newbie? What the? ”

"I'm going to ask Anne to bring some of the newly trained Knights of the City and the Knights of the Law, and it's time for those bastards in the city to clean up. The training is up to you. ”

"You didn't say it sooner! How can I establish my prestige like this? ”

Looking at the swollen eyes that I had just beaten with my own hands, I smiled proudly.

"Hehe, that's what you want. Don't want to be handsome in front of beautiful women! (To be continued......)
