Chapter 382: Connected Households
The meeting, which was supposed to be full of quarrels and debates, was a little deserted because of Mine's presence. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although many people expressed their dissatisfaction with the reduction of the clergy in various places, no one dared to stand up and speak first at this time.
Hunting magical creatures with those adventurers can earn high commissions, but there are risks and benefits, and the delicate priests who have become accustomed to 'pensioning' in churches around the world do not want to fight for those commissions, and they also have to mingle with those lowly adventurers.
After waiting for a moment, Mien looked at the black-clothed cardinal, who was all talking in private, and said with a blank face, "Why hasn't anyone spoken? Since this is an important issue concerning the future development of the Holy See, I wonder what you all think about it?"
Seeing that no one was willing to stand up and speak, Theodore turned his gaze to Mine, "Your Excellency, now that the Holy See has a serious financial deficit, I am not opposed to cutting the clergy in the churches everywhere, but let those clergy and adventurers who have not even seen blood hunt magical creatures, I think this reform is very likely to cause heavy casualties among the clergy who have newly become 'clergy'." ”
Theodore had also thought carefully about the issue that Theodore had mentioned, which was why he had decided on it early.
"Archbishop Sunnah, regarding the problem you mentioned, I think the new Holy Seminary can solve it very well, not only to reduce the financial burden within the Holy See, but now more and more adventurers are potential believers, but to return them to the Light, even if it is not because of financial problems, the establishment of the Holy Seminary will continue. ”
At the beginning of Theodore, a black-clothed cardinal sitting on the periphery stood up and said, "Your Excellency, although I agree with you, the number of magical creatures is limited after all, and if one day magical creatures are exterminated by a human hunt, what will happen to the Holy Seminary left behind?"
To be able to ask such a question, the black bishop has a unique perspective on the matter.
After all, the entire human world has been silent for too many years, so that magical creatures are regarded as an extremely rare species, and if the Holy See invests a lot of resources to establish a holy seminary, then magical creatures are on the verge of extinction, and the Holy See is likely to face an embarrassing situation.
It's just that Meen won't tell them right now what will happen in a few years, once the entrance to the subplane opens, it will be a paradise for adventurers to pan for gold!
"You don't have to worry about that, the number of magical creatures will not decrease due to the adventurer's hunting. ”
After receiving an answer, the cardinal sat down again.
The hall fell silent again, and seeing that no one spoke again, Meen spoke, "If no one disagrees with this subject any more, then everything will go according to the plan that has been made." ”
Looking around the hall and seeing that no one was speaking, Mien motioned for Domina to read the second item.
When there is only one voice in a large organization, a lot of things that need to be delayed are quickly resolved.
On the second issue, no one in the hall dared to question it.
The Inquisition was established with three Grand Presiding Judges.
The former Archbishop of the Southwest, Lucia Priest, is in charge of the 'Adjudication Council' to deal with all corruption within the Church.
It was up to Royette Nolan, the Avenger, the leader of the Black Cavalry, to deal with all heretics and degenerates outside the Church.
As for the third presiding judge, Meen did not make it clear who would be the presiding judge, and even Reutt and Lucia were not who would be the third presiding judge in the future.
In addition to the three presiding judges, Minn will also appoint five presiding judges to serve as judges in the 'religious courts' to deal with some ordinary pagan and civil disputes, and Lucia will also be in charge of handling some vicious incidents.
The headquarters of the Inquisition will be in the holy city of Lotta, but the Inquisition will be in Haina, the city in the very center of the north.
After seeing the strength of the black-clothed masked man in the square a month ago, these black-clothed bishops muttered in their hearts one by one, they had all heard the rumors about the 'enforcer' from the south, and now the masked man was more like the Pope had already agreed to be the Grand Inquisitor.
The only surprise to them was the Holy Inquisition, the young woman who had risen to the position of archbishop at the beginning of the establishment of the Holy See.
Six years have passed, and at this time, she is going to become the president of the 'Adjudicator Council' and one of the three chief judges!
From a clergyman who was originally next to the Archbishop of the Holy Law, she has grown into a hot new magnate within the Holy See in just a few years, and many people have maliciously speculated about the relationship between her and the Pope in private.
It's just that this kind of rebellious speculation can only rot deep in their stomachs, whether it is ability or force, she and the knight elder are not the same class of existence at all!
Many people think that Lucia has the same relationship that she joined when the Holy See was founded... Or some more intimate relationships can jump off the springboard all the way to the current position of the Grand Judge in a few years.
But many of the cardinals who had seen Lucia for the first time in recent months wondered how the woman's hair had turned pink, and even her skin had turned much paler.
If Samier Medester's authority in the Holy See is forged by blood and fire, and the Masked Man is the Pope's early nominee, then Lucia can only be regarded as a 'relation'.
The ability is mediocre, and the gap between her appearance and the knight's growth is not small, and she is a powerless woman!
If it weren't for the fact that she was the first pope's choice just now, I'm afraid that some people would have jumped out and voiced their opposition to Lucia's appointment as Grand Inquisitor!
As for Reggie, who has always taken Lucia as the object of comparison, although his face was expressionless at this time, when he heard the Pope announce that Lucia would take up the position of chief judge and chief justice, his heart was like a stone blocked.
Holding a 'tribunal' on corruption within the Holy See, but its status is faintly half higher than that of the archbishop!
That's a real amount of power!
I'm afraid that after today, in addition to the first pope, the clergy of the entire Holy See will have another big man who needs to look at his face and act!
Although no one spoke in the room, Mien knew that there would be people who would disagree with his arrangement for Lucia, but he didn't need to worry about these things at all.
Leaving the Northwest Diocese to deal with it until now, Mien just wanted him to be a stepping stone to establish the authority of the Inquisition!
