Leon and his party wander around the White Mist City for an afternoon, and Riley and Emma get new clothes, as the first banquet will be held at the castle in a few days. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the evening, they arrived at the dock to prepare for their return journey.

"Your Highness Leon, you are here. It was a gift from the Earl. The earl's butler greeted Leon with a smile, and he pointed to the two ships behind him.

"Gifts?" Leon didn't know what the Count would give, it should be an apology, right, but it was useless to care about these at this time, the most important thing was for the Count to give it to himself, at least it meant that he was talking.

"Yes, it took a lot of thought for Lord Earl to prepare these things. "The housekeeper did not forget to say good things for the earl, and the relationship between the two families was not mentioned for the time being, but the work on the surface still had to be done.

Whether the Count had any intention when he gave these "gifts", Leon didn't know, now that the things were here, he wouldn't return them for any boring backbone, since he wanted to emphasize that it was a gift, then it would be good to accept it himself.

"Let's go check it out. "Leon let the butler lead the way, and the things given by the Count were loaded on two ships, and now I can go and see the steward to go back and pay off, and by the way express my gratitude.

The ship was packed with a mess, almost a little bit of everything.

There are several types of grain alone, three bags of barley, three bags of wheat, and two bags of corn.

Later, I saw alcohol, dried meat, fabrics, spices, ornaments, and other things.

"Not bad, thank the Earl for your kindness when you go back. "Leon couldn't remember what was on board after looking at it.

"Then I'll quit. The butler replied with a smile, and then left the dock with the people.

"Your Highness, the Earl's gift has really taken a lot of thought. York looked at the departing butler and couldn't help but mock. Listening to the butler's words before, he still didn't believe it, but the Earl could still think about it when he was angry?

"Isn't that right, we need a lot of things for a banquet, and the Earl sent it just enough for us. Leon calculated that the things here were similar to those that had been burned before, and the Count's careful thinking avoided the need to buy them again.

"What if the Earl knows the news, and doesn't know what he thinks?" said York, who thought it made sense, for it would not be practical for the Earl to send two boatloads of barley.

"We just knew about it, and he gave us a gift and made him happy. "Leon has no intention of exposing the matter, the current situation is good news for the town, and then try to avoid conflicts with the earl, before there is no strong strength, stable development is the last word.

"Let's go, it's time for us to go. "The matter of White Mist City has been settled, and they are about to embark on their way back.

Just as they were about to board the ship, a few people rushed over from the direction of the city gate.

The leader was Arnold, the priest of the Divine Court, and there were several people who looked like believers around him.

"Your Highness, are you going back?" Arnold called Leon in time, if he was a few steps late, he might not be able to touch it.

"We've finished visiting Whitefog City, the Winter Festival is over, and it's time to head back to Ravenwood. Leon probably guessed their intentions, he "helped" them a great favor today, and he would get a few words of thanks, but Leon felt ashamed, he didn't get a step closer to the divine court after that, and it was best to stop this matter.

"I am here to thank you for helping us retrieve the sacrifice today. As Leon had guessed, Priest Arnold was talking about it as soon as he opened his mouth.

"It's just a gesture, Priest Arnold should hurry back and get busy. Leon saw that his expression was a little wrong, and it seemed that there was something else to say besides thanks.

It is possible that the only thing they can talk about is the construction of the Divine Court, and today he helped himself testify and help them find sacrifices, and the two sides are even, if Arnold still wants to use this matter to persuade himself to build the Divine Court, Leon can also find enough reasons to refuse.

"Don't worry, there are other priests in the divine court, not to mention that I still came at the behest of the bishop. Priest Arnold shook his head, thinking that Leon was worried that he would be blamed by the bishop for going out for too long, and he hastened to explain.

"I know your gratitude. Leon knew what he was about to say, and seeing that the hands of the group were empty, the bishop had certainly not sent them to give thanks, so there was only one possibility left of verbal thanks.

When he was in the Divine Court this morning, Leon had already seen what kind of person the bishop was, this kind of person who had been in contact with high-level nobles for a long time, his vision would not be too low, and his down-and-out prince status was nothing in his eyes. Leon didn't think about getting anything from the Divine Court, so it was good that everyone would no longer have anything to do with each other.

"No, I'm here to discuss the construction of the Divine Court. Arnold finally explained the purpose of his visit.

Leon didn't answer, instead glancing back at Riley and Emma, who were calm enough to stand up and remind themselves of their opposition to the proposal.

"Priest Arnold, we discussed this issue last time, and I'm afraid it's not a good time yet. Leon continued to reject him, and there was no possibility of the Divine Court settling down in the town.

"Your Highness Leon, you have misunderstood what I meant, and I am here to inform you on behalf of the Bishop that our Holy See will fund the construction of the Divine Court in Ravenwood, and you don't have to worry about the trouble of building it. Priest Arnold said with a smile on his face.

"How is this possible?" said Leon, suspecting that he had misheard, that he had never heard that the Holy See would fund an obscure place, and that it was not something that the Bishop did.

"Your Highness also knows the value of Uragen, and today happens to be the day of the Winter Festival, and retrieving the sacrifices in time has avoided a lot of losses for the Divine Court, so I suggest that the Bishop fund the construction of the Divine Court to thank you. Priest Arnold explained that at first, the bishop's plan was to give some valuable gifts, but Arnold repeatedly insisted that the best gift was to let more people be blessed by the gods of nature, and finally the bishop agreed, but he was willing to give very little money, and the size of the town's divine court would be limited.

Leon felt a little depressed, how could this Arnold have such an idea, the world of fanatical believers is really different from ordinary people.

"There is no need for this, and Priest Arnold went back to thank the bishop for his kindness. "Leon didn't expect things to turn out like this, funded by the Holy See, that means that the construction of the Divine Court cannot be decided by the lord, and there is not even the right to object, this kind of rule really doesn't know when it was stayed, it's a shame for the lords.

"Your Highness, you don't have to be polite, I'll take care of this matter after a while. I'll go back first, and I won't delay your time any longer. Arnold smiled at everyone and turned to leave the docks.

Leon was helpless.

"Your Highness, you must refuse him. As soon as he turned around, he heard Riley and Emma say in unison.
