Chapter 501: Admitting Mistakes

"Good day, Your Excellency the Grand Duke of Pritz, Donald, First Viscount of the Sect of Light, salutes you!" the young nobleman gave Leo a noble salute very respectfully, and from his elegant movements alone, it was clear that this Viscount Donald was well educated as a nobleman.

Leo only bowed slightly, looking slightly arrogant, but Viscount Donald didn't care, after all, the situation is different now, Leo has enough qualifications to show his arrogance, after all, this is also the prerogative of the victor.

Without speaking, Leo just looked at Donald coldly, waiting for what the first-class viscount of the Sect of Light would say. In fact, the reason why Leo was so arrogant was because he was also a little dissatisfied with this in his heart, after all, in the Bright Sect where the clerical power is supreme, nobility is just an honorary title, and the real power is controlled by those priests and priests. The Bright Sect sent such a vain noble viscount to negotiate with him, which in Leo's eyes was simply an insult to himself.

Viscount Donald obviously thought that he was a person with rich negotiation experience, he was not disgusted by Leo's cold attitude, he first laughed at himself: "It's a great honor to meet you, if it weren't for the fact that the knights of the Church in the Paris Empire were captured by you this time, I'm afraid I wouldn't have had the opportunity to meet you, speaking of which, I still have to thank those unlucky knights!" In fact, I've always been an admirer of you, and I've been amazed by your bravery and wisdom from the time you fought against the wolf invasion on the borders of the Varu Empire to the time you established the Duchy of Pritz. ”

Hearing Donald say this, even if Leo didn't respond, the tense face on his face had obviously eased a little, which made Viscount Donald's heart slightly relieved, it seemed that Leo was a young man after all, and the city was not so deep.

"The main purpose of this meeting with His Excellency the Grand Duke is to comply with the decree of His Majesty the Pope, hoping that His Excellency will be magnanimous and release the captured and imprisoned knights of the Church of Light. Of course, if His Excellency is able to release the knights, the Cult of Light will also compensate you and the Principality of Pritz accordingly. ”

Seeing Leo raise his eyebrows, before he could speak, Viscount Donald immediately added: "Please believe in the sincerity of the Sect, I am willing to swear to the noble God of Light, as long as you open your mouth, I will definitely satisfy you!"

"Hah!" Leo sneered lightly: "I have shown my sincerity to the Church of Light before, but you are not satisfied with my permission to allow the church to preach in the Principality of Pritz, and even want to plot to overthrow the Principality of Pritz, and after the matter is revealed, you slandered me as a blasphemous, and sent two knights to conquer me. Now, after being completely defeated, you still want me to release your knights? It's ridiculous! I find that the only thing about your Church of Light is that you are thick-skinned!"

In the face of Leo's anger and resentment, Viscount Donald did not show the slightest dissatisfaction on his face, like a sponge to accept all Leo's anger, making Leo feel as if he was punching in the air, completely powerless.

"Yes, as His Excellency the Grand Duke complained, the actions of the Bright Sect towards the Principality of Pritz in the past were indeed too wrong, which caused Pritz, which was originally extremely friendly to the Principality, to turn his back, and these are indeed the fault of the Church, and His Majesty the Pope has personally admitted this!" What made Leo feel strange was that this Viscount Donald actually admitted it without changing his face and took all the blame, which made Leo a little confused, this is not the style of the Bright Sect that has always been arrogant and domineering.

"As a matter of fact, His Majesty the Pope has convened a high-level council of the Church to personally try Cardinal Owen, who has an unshirkable responsibility for the affairs of the Principality of Pritz, and has punished him very severely, so I have come this time with 120,000 sincerity in the hope of restoring the old peace between the Church and the Principality of Pritz!"

"Of course, His Majesty the Pope is also well aware that because of Cardinal Owen's carelessness, he has caused a considerable misunderstanding in the Principality of Pritz, for which the Pope will compensate you accordingly. Suffice it to say, as long as you make a request, we will do our best to meet it!

Viscount Donald's words were extremely sincere, not only admitting his mistakes, disposing of the responsible person, but also asking for compensation, such an attitude made Leo stunned for a long time, and he could only stare at Donald.

To say that this Bright Sect is also extremely single, when you are weak, he bullies you mercilessly, when you are strong and he is weak, he looks like he grovels and does what the king does, this is simply a scoundrel to the extreme, Leo expressed extreme discomfort with this, and said Okay, what about the blasphemous? What about the trial? What are you here to do? When you see my fist is big, you admit it, you don't play like this!

Gao Xianzhi, Leonidas, and Joan of Arc behind Leo looked like they should be, and they were not as depressed as Leo. In their view, it is inevitable and wise for countries to bow to the strong.

Looking at Leo's face as if he was holding his stomach but there was nowhere to vent, his face was blue and red for a while, but Donald was not afraid, he came as an envoy, even if the Grand Duke Leo was dissatisfied, he couldn't attack the envoy, this was the default rule of the countries on the continent.

In fact, Leo was indeed unwilling in his heart, but the Bright Sect had already admitted defeat so neatly and was willing to make amends, which was already a very perfect ending. Leo couldn't continue to entangle, after all, he didn't even have the appetite to swallow the Paris Empire now, let alone the Bright Sect Nation thousands of miles away.

"Okay, since you admit the mistakes of this war on behalf of the Pope of the Bright Sect, then the matter is not impossible to discuss, and in terms of compensation, I will make a detailed list for you. As for those knights, as long as you can pay a ransom that matches their status, you can bring them back!"

Leo's reply made Viscount Donald overjoyed, and he hurriedly bowed to Leo and said: "Thank you very much for your magnanimity, I am just a messenger who stands in the front, as for specific matters, the Church Council will send a high-level representative of the Church to talk to you directly, and I believe that you will be satisfied when the time comes." ”

Although he was a little depressed, Leo had to say that the matter of the Bright Sect was relatively successful, with the compensation and ransom of the Bright Sect, plus the cities such as Panon that had been occupied, his Principality of Pritz would definitely become one of the great powers on the mainland.
