In the papal office at the top of the Cathedral of Light, St. Paul walked in softly and handed the contents of the magical message he had just received to Pope San Francesco. After the old Pope saw it, he frowned at first, then laughed contemptuously, turned his head to Leo who was a little unclear, and said: "I just received the news that the Dark Council has discovered the internal response we have planted around them, but it is surprising that His Excellency the Dark Speaker actually led a team into the Holy City himself, and it seems that this time he may be able to catch a big fish!"

Hearing the words of Pope San Francisco, Leo's eyes lit up, and his heart was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that this time the Dark Council would play so big, and even the Dark Speaker would appear in the Holy City of Light in person, which was simply a rhythm that was about to break the net with the Church of Light!

However, Leo was both frightened by the Church of Light's surveillance of the Dark Council, and disdainful of the Dark Council's secrets. If this continues, maybe we can't wait for tomorrow's coronation, and the infiltrated hands of the Dark Council will be found out by the Church of Light, and there will be no excitement to see.

"I didn't expect these dark mages to be so bold, and they really have some skills, they can sneak into the Holy City, it seems that they know a lot about the Church of Light!" Leo smiled slightly, but his mouth was slightly provocative.

St. Paul, whose face was grim, said coldly: "Dare to go wild in the Holy City, these ground rats will not end well, and it won't take long to find their traces!"

Leo raised his eyebrows, pursed his lips and made an expression that I would believe, but such a perfunctory demeanor only irritated São Paulo even more. He bowed to Pope San Francisco and retreated again, apparently in a rage that he had to find out the dark mages.

After watching St. Paul leave, Pope San Francisco looked at Leo with deep eyes and said: "It seems that His Excellency has really succeeded in arousing St. Paul's competitive spirit, but ...... That's fine, anyway, the court is supposed to be in charge of St. Paul, and that's his duty!"

Unexpectedly, a little bit of caution would be spotted by Pope San Francisco so quickly, Leo smiled a little embarrassedly: "If you can eradicate the Dark Council now, maybe it will relieve the pressure tomorrow, and it should be easier for you to deal with it at that time." ”

The old pope shook his head and said unoptimistically: "It's not that simple, these dark mages have been able to entangle with the church for so many years, and naturally have their own unique ways of concealing their whereabouts, even if St. Paul personally intervenes, he may not be able to find His Excellency the Speaker." And ......"

Speaking of this, the old Pope paused for a moment and continued: "Even if St. Paul is found, what if they dare to enter the Holy City so blatantly, they must be sure to leave, not to mention others, at least the strength of His Excellency the Dark Speaker surpasses that of St. Paul, unless I personally take action, I can't keep him at all!"

This puzzled Leo, who looked at Pope San Francisco strangely and asked, "Isn't this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? Why don't you take action to leave the Dark Speaker behind?

"Hahahaha!" After listening to Leo's question, the old pope laughed, and he said while laughing: "Your Excellency is a secular person who does not understand the nature of the church. ”

In Leo's puzzled eyes, Pope San Francesco patiently explained to him: "Whether it is the Dark Council or the Gray Bone Cult, the relationship between the Dark Council and the Church of Light is not a life-and-death relationship. The essence of the church has always been to expand believers for the gods they believe in, and the more believers there are, the more faith they generate, the more powerful the gods will be, and the more miracles and divine graces will be given to the church, which are mutually reinforcing. The reason why the Church of Light has spared no effort to fight the Dark Council and the Gray Bone Sect for thousands of years is precisely to compete for population and faith. But no matter which sect it is, it is impossible to completely kill the other party, because this will cause a war at the level of the gods, and the consequences will inevitably be unbearable for mortals. ”

"So even if I know that the Dark Speaker is in the Holy City, I can't directly come forward to kill him, and besides, he must have an artifact given by the Dark God on his body, and once a big war is caused at that time, he may directly destroy this Holy City, even if it is for the believers in the city, I can't expand the incident. ”

This was the first time Leo had learned about the religion of this world, and he had no idea that there were such unspoken rules at the religious level. Just when Leo opened his mouth and wanted to say something, Pope San Francesco raised his hand and waved his hand: "I have said enough today, His Excellency must be very tired from running all the way, please go back and rest for a while, everything will naturally be revealed at the coronation ceremony tomorrow." ”

Now that the Pope had issued an expulsion order, Leo had no reason to stay any longer, so he had to take Feng Xifan and Immorton to retire and leave. The white bishop who had led them when he came still stood in the Cathedral of Light and continued to show them the way.

When the group returned to the outside of the Cathedral of Light, Sidney had already come to his senses and said to Leo with some reproach, "I'm sorry, Leo, I'm ...... I don't know what I am, I was so blinded by the light for a while. ”

For Sidney, Leo didn't have any sense of blame, he gently took Sidney's hand, and said softly: "It's nothing, nothing, don't care, maybe it's a good thing, some things have some words, it's not good for you to suppress them in your heart for too long, if you can take this opportunity to say it, it will also help you." ”

Sidney sobbed slightly and said, "I ...... Am I a burden to you, and instead of helping, I'm causing you trouble!"

"No, Sidney, you can't think so, if I don't have you by my side, where would I have the courage to contend with the Pope of the Church of Light and the Speaker of the Council of Darkness? You gave me the courage to keep moving forward and fighting for our better life in the future! If I didn't have you by my side, what was the point of even if I got this world?"

Although Leo is not a playboy, after all, he has experienced the era of information explosion, and a little sweet talk is enough to coax Sidney, who has never been in love, into ruddy and shy.
