"In other words, your physical features are more like your mother?"

"Not bad."

Richard was thoughtful.

Bastards were not a problem for the Pope. From this point of view, Leo IV's real concern is the influence of the woman's identity on him...... It's like another mystery.

"I don't know exactly what kind of person your father is, and I haven't seen it with my own eyes. After all, Steppenwolf and the religious leader were originally two people. If there is no major war, we will only die of old age. ”

Richard blinked.

"So, could you describe Leo IV to me as a person?"

“...... Even the same person, in the eyes of people with different positions and identities, will show different characteristics, whether good or evil, strong or weak, may be reversed in a moment; Not to mention a high-profile figure like the Pope. ”

The bishop's tone was cold and hard, and it seemed that she did not want to mention her father.

"I just need to know the idea of 'my knight'."

The smile on Richard's face didn't change at all.

Joan Borgia replied softly after a moment of silence.

"My father...... He was a madman, a madman, a conspirator with a greater desire for power than anyone else in the world. For this person, everything in the world is a bargaining chip, an object to be used. And if he doesn't show enough value, he may become a burden, even if it is relatives and friends, he will not hesitate to abandon it. My experience is proof enough. ”

"He was originally the leader of the second family of Emerald, and under his leadership, Borgia became the ruling family of the kingdom of Esperia; But when my father became pope and gave up his original name, he had to leave the family and kingdom he had run for so long......"

"Of course, the average person thinks it doesn't matter, right? After all, taking this position as a secular ruler is already a remarkable feat in itself. Holding Solomon's Ring in his hand and enjoying the highest position of honor in the world is already the limit of what one can imagine as a person in power. ”

"But my father is different, he is an extremely persistent person, and he refuses to let go of even the slightest benefit. Even if it is something that could have been discarded, it is still unwilling to give it up easily. That's why my father needs a trustworthy successor to help him manage the ...... I saw through this, and in order to get rid of the constraints he set for me, I had no choice but to give up my original identity. ”

I see. Richard thought to himself, but if it was just a change of gender and appearance, I am afraid it would not be enough for Joan to be favored by the Pope-

In her efforts to break free from the shackles, the girl has at least shown an astonishing talent for being extraordinary, after all, reaching a legend at this age, even if she forgoes her status as a cardinal, is enough to make her famous in Middle-earth and the world.

...... In this way, His Majesty the Pope is indeed stingy enough. The relationship between his own flesh and blood has become the reason for him to treat Qiong'an harshly, which is really unreasonable.

For girls, the reason why they will follow the path of the clergy seems to be to face difficulties, but in fact it is a last resort.

After all, her father did not allow herself to go to the center of power: whether it was a secular kingdom or a papacy, if she did not show ten times more value, she really no longer had a chance to control her own destiny; Qiong'an can have today's achievements, but I don't know what kind of hard work and hard work she has put in.

If others suffer from this unfair treatment, they may be able to ask for help from other big people who value their talents; But it was none other than the supreme ruler of Middle-earth, the head of the Holy See. No one would want to offend Leo IV for the sake of a little girl; If you join other forces that are far away from the Holy See, you will only cause fear, and there will be no peace at that time.

So Joan Borgia's choice is that it is better to leave his fate to his father once again, and let the Pope himself decide-

It's a very clever and slightly cruel choice. Because it is destined that in this process, the girl can only rely on herself.

"So, it's not the Holy See who casts the effect of the identity disguising spell on you? According to you, your father is not like someone who would do such a thing for you. ”

"Indeed."

Joan nodded, and then, a strange smile appeared on her face.

"Mr. Rasputchin, I advise you not to ask any further. Including my mother - I guess you're curious about her identity, right? After all, even my father would have a difficult background. ”

"Why? Is it that you are unwilling to answer? ”

"My life is now completely in your hands, and I will naturally answer whatever you want to ask. But...... All I can say is that my mother is related to the spellcaster, and if you mention 'that person' name here, you'll be stared at. I don't think it's a good choice for you. ”

"Just the name ......?"

"Not bad."

The other nodded affirmatively.

Richard didn't know if the other party was bluffing.

Theory, there is no way for the current Joan Bolkiah to lie to himself. This is part of the oath.

But the other party's statement that some kind of being can "hear the voice of everything in the world, and if someone mentions its name, it will be heard" is actually a rumor that has been widely circulated in the Mayan world.

It's just that the so-called "some kind of existence" is not something else, but a god, a real god.

Richard thought about it, but still didn't continue to inquire about the identity of the spellcaster. This was just in case, he didn't want to get into trouble, and the god killing cone was trying to relieve the consumption of Joan's body spell, but he saw it with his own eyes.

"Regardless, my knight, you succeeded in the end."

"Yes, although I know that my father has always longed for Borgia to have a descendant, and even later had the idea of adopting a adopted son in the family, I cannot bet my hopes on him. So, I decided to think about and deal with all his worries for him and stand in front of him again. ”

"That day has come. Specifically, on my eighteenth birthday. When I passed the Templar Commander's test as a male and became a Master of Knights, my father finally approved of my idea. The rest of the ...... It's the ones that are well known. ”

After Joan finished talking about her life experience in one breath, her expression didn't look as angry and gloomy as before.

She has been able to keep this secret alone, and I am afraid that she really needs such an opportunity to vent the emotions stored in her heart......

Now, the knightess seemed to have calmed down once more, turning back into the difficult cardinal.
