Chapter 65: Image Building

"Fourteen years of penance have made Betty's faith in our Lord more devout, and this child's love and worship for the Goddess has deepened every day as the penance progresses, and the prosperity and wealth of the mortal world can no longer have a little temptation on her soul, and only by bathing in the glory of the Goddess can she obtain peace of mind. So, today, I have decided to officially reintroduce her to you, my chosen heir, and to take my place as the new Archbishop after I finally return to the bosom of the earth, and to lead you in spreading the glory of your Lord.www.biquge.info After the obese Keane finished a long introduction, he stopped and gasped for a while, the old man's health is getting worse and worse as he gets older, and he will feel tired even if he talks for too long. However, in the face of the current situation, the happy old man ignored the fatigue of his body, and after taking a breath, he continued: "And Helena here is Betty's sister, and in the process of studying with me, she felt that she did not understand the will and doctrine of my lord, so she moved into the old library, and while praying and listening to my lord's voice every day, she concentrated on studying the scriptures of the church, and used all her body and mind to experience the loving light of the goddess. This continued for ten years, until she decided that there was nothing more in books that could improve her, so four years ago she left the library, and even the Sanctuary, and wandered the continent of Yala as a traveling priest, helping all those in need as much as she could, so that the name of our Lord could spread to every corner of the earth. In the process of traveling, she finally fully comprehended the true meaning of the will of the goddess, and became a sage who has not appeared in our earth church for more than 100 years. And the mark of the sin on her forehead was deliberately left by her in the process of study, when she felt the love of our Lord and the mercy and care for the world, and felt guilty that she was unable to share more for my Lord, so she thought that she was a sinner of my Lord, so that she deliberately left it, just to remind her at all times and never forget the love and mercy of my Lord. ”

"Look, look, that's how good the clergy are. The rest of the party, plus three alien demigods as guests, were supposed to have their seats in the middle of the venue, but at the unanimous request of the eight of them, they were finally placed in an inconspicuous corner of the dining room, keeping a distance from all the Earth Cultists, with a space of their own. So, everyone finally no longer has to worry about the occasion and image, and can enjoy a hearty dinner happily while watching Lina become the focus of everyone's attention. Pannis held in his hand a roasted grass eagle wing that had just been gnawed and only bones remained, and said teasingly: "When something comes out of their mouths, the meaning has completely changed. Tsk, who is the person full of love and pity he described, hahahaha, is it really the timid fool who pretends to be someone else every day? Haha, Lina was described by him like this, I think she is a stranger I don't know. ”

"You whisper to me, and, put down the bone in your hand, don't deliberately dangle in front of Master Dilly, his eyes are becoming more and more dangerous, do you still want to break out into a serious riot?" Catherine sternly stopped Pannis from continuing to tease Dilly's death-seeking behavior like a dog, but she couldn't help but agree with his evaluation, and smiled helplessly: "What you said is indeed right, Lina is indeed completely unrecognizable by his description." However, I think he would say this, and it was also a very reluctant choice, as an archbishop, he also has his own things to consider. ”

Of course, it is a very helpless choice, if you want to establish an heir, you must create a good image of Betty, although it cannot be said to be perfect, but at least it must be noble enough. Pannis nodded, "I want Lina to be the representative of the Church among the mortal people, and I have the same request. So their past must be hidden for the time being, maybe when their position is stabilized, they can no longer care about this kind of image problem, but it is still necessary when they first sit in this position, including Keane asking Betty to grow her hair back for this reason. Tsk, it seems that he really put a lot of thought into Lina and Betty, maybe not only because of the guilt and insecurity in his heart, well, maybe. ”

"Guilty?" Freya, who looked at the sumptuous food in front of her, but had to control the amount of food under Catherine's forced order, put down her knife and fork early, and looked around with her chin in her chin very bored, looking for an opportunity to get food that Catherine was not paying attention to. At this time, hearing Pannis's words, she was familiar with all kinds of struggles and conspiracies, and she keenly grasped the point, and asked suspiciously: "It seems that he has done something special, otherwise you would not use the word guilt." ”

"Don't be so sensitive. Pannis pressed his forehead with a headache and said, "This is a topic I can't talk about, understand?"

"Then I understand that everything seems to be under his control. Freya and Catherine glanced at each other, both of them were smart enough women, Pannis's flickering words combined with Lina's doubts about the previous things themselves, the answer immediately took shape in their minds, Catherine said with a dissatisfied face: "It's understandable, but it's unacceptable, huh, this matter must be kept secret from Lina, otherwise it will be a bit too big for her everyone." ”

"Ha, it's the same reaction I had at the time, even the words were exactly the same. Pannis said: "But don't be too nervous, don't think of Lina as a fool, after so many years, she will guess a little bit in her heart, and even if she is really stupid, her friends are not stupid, it is impossible not to remind her, so since she refuses to mention it, then there is no need for us to dwell on this matter anymore." ”

"Well, what do you think I'll tell her about this comment?" Catherine looked thoughtful, but her words were full of danger, "I think she'll be very grateful for your evaluation of her, well, it must be so." ”

"Hey, this kind of whistleblowing is too vicious. Pannis broke out in a cold sweat and shook his head vigorously: "It's not in line with your knightly status at all." ”

"Hmph, who made you call her a fool. Catherine wrinkled her nose and snorted, and advised, "But everyone must be careful, whether she already knows it or not, don't talk about it in front of her, no problem." Especially you, Vivien, must remember. ”

"Huh, what do you remember?" the mage girl who had been hanging her head raised her head and asked with a blank expression, "Why did you call me?"

"It's fine. Catherine pressed Vivien's head down again with a blank face, "I didn't say anything. (To be continued.) )
