Chapter 204: Verdict
Messiah walked into the halls of the Council of Light, and there were far more people involved in this trial than Messiah had expected.
She glanced at the seated figures in the courtroom, all of whom she knew very well, including several bishops.
Among them, Bishop Monig and Bishop Kobler are the two bishops that Messi is most familiar with, they are both from the Holy Order, and Bishop Monig is even Messiah's mentor in swordsmanship.
When this gesture of a prisoner was seen by her mentor, shame filled Messiah's heart, and she bowed her head and barely dared to look at the bishops in the interrogation table.
The Messiah was soon taken to the place where the sinners were standing by four escorted Holy Religious troops, and the trial began in earnest with the bishop of the Inquisition.
"Messi, because during Nolan's participation in the crusade against the demon of sin, in order to protect a demon, he drew his sword and rashly attacked the presiding judge of the Inquisition..."
Hearing the accusation read by one of the bishops, Messi's lips opened to refute it.
She wasn't protecting a demon at all, but an innocent frost elf, and she didn't even pull her sword out of its scabbard during that time.
But in the end, the Messiah chose to listen quietly to all his accusations.
"The Inquisition believes that she has been influenced by demons during her time in Nolan, and has betrayed the teachings of the gods to be in league with demons, and needs to be punished by the Holy Light."
When the Bishop of the Inquisition had finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Bishop Monig and Bishop Kobler, who were sitting on the other side, the two bishops from the Holy Army, who could really decide the messian.
"Messi, say everything you want to say, the disciples I teach are not so cowardly!"
Bishop Monig stared at the Messiah below and said slowly, his voice not loud but resounding throughout the Council of Light.
By this time the Messiah had already raised her head, and she could endure the slander before the Inquisition, but the latter sentence 'betraying the teachings of the gods', the Messiah could not bear this accusation anyway.
Her faith in God was almost as important as her life......
"I think I'm guilty, Lord Bishop! But I'm not protecting a demon, I'm a helpless elf! The presiding judge had lost his mind and was ready to massacre innocent people during his mission, and I couldn't watch this atrocity happen! And also... I have never renounced my faith, even if it is death. ”
Messi is rarely provoked, even if her property is taken away by the Holy Cult Country, and her subordinates have treated her roughly, Mai Sai has never felt angry, but this time Messi really realized that he could not continue to be silent.
"Atrocities? The Inquisition was built by demons to carry out its mission, and there was no such thing as innocence or innocence. ”
The bishop of the Inquisition did not accept the messian.
"Do you really have proof that my disciple was protecting a demon at the time?"
Bishop Monig was a little impatient, Messi was one of the best disciples he had ever taught, and he was a model of knighthood in both character and ability, and had also fought on the battlefield.
The Inquisition, relying on a mere accusation of 'protecting the demons in Nolan', regarded the Messiah as a betrayer of the demons, much to Bishop Monig's dissatisfaction.
"With all due respect, Bishop Monig, the Inquisition has suffered a great loss this time, because it was attacked in Nolan by fellow demons... The betrayer's rash attack on the presiding judge had a great impact on the mission. ”
"But I'm not going to hand over my disciples to you either! Both witnesses are both judges, and I don't believe what they say! ”
Bishop Monig glanced at another bishop from the Holy Order, as if he had made up his mind.
"Messi, the mistakes you made in Nolan this time prove that you still need to be tempered, remove your identity as a knight of the Holy Cult, and send you to the Frost Fortress as a recruit!"
Bishop Monig's decision was intended to keep Messiah away from the Holy City of the Church, and after he dispersed back to the Holy City, the infamy of the traitor had already spread, and the Messiah wanted to regain his prestige in the Holy Army, and in the future even become a figure like the head of the legion, and the only way to win new glory was through battle.
Bishop Monig hopes that his disciple will become a legion commander in the future.
Frost Fortress...... Located on the border between the Land of Frost and the Land of the Holy Cult, Messi had been to this fortress and was covered in snow all year round, and was often attacked by orcs and demons.
To put it simply, it is to be sent to the frontier, and in exchange for the fact that the Messiah could gladly accept this condition, but now it ...... What made Messi himself a little ridiculous was that she wanted to ask to return to Nolan.
But the Messiah knew that this was absolutely impossible, and the Messiah was just about to agree with Bishop Monig's verdict...... Behind him, a figure stood up in the audience, directly interrupting Messiah's thoughts.
"Bishop Monig, I don't think this good knight going to the Frost Fortress will allow her to grow, if you can, please let her be my guardian and follow me."
This is... The voice of the Holy Lady Herolia! As soon as Messiah turned around, he saw the holy woman Herolia standing in front of the audience.
It is rumored that the person closest to the god in the Holy City has a feeling of inner uneasiness being soothed just by looking at her turquoise pupils.
"Don't... Make a dangerous betrayer a guardian... It's not ......"
Before Bishop Monig could speak, the bishops around him had already raised doubts.
The Messiah has already borne the name of a traitor in the Holy City, and if she becomes the guardian of the Holy Maiden, it will have a slightly bad effect.
"How can such a noble soul be said to be dangerous."
The eyes of the saint Herolia looked at the Messiah, who had a feeling that her own heart was being peeped at.
Illusion? Messi didn't know, but the sudden decision of the Holy Daughter Herolia made Messi very puzzled.
She had never spoken to her in the Holy City.
"I will accept her sins as well, Bishop Monig...... She learns so much by following me. ”
The Holy Maiden Herolia looked at Bishop Monig as he sat on the judgment seat, and she looked at the Legion Commander of the Holy Cult without fear.
The two bishops thought for a moment, and finally made a decision, probably because they saw the unusual expression on the bishop of the Inquisition.
"Perhaps the radiance of the Holy Maiden will wash away the sins of the Messiah, and I hope you will guide this child on the right path." Bishop Monig said.
"Thank you, Your Excellency."
After thanking the Judgment Seat, the Virgin Herolia smiled at the Messiah again, very kindly.
