Chapter 296: Enlightenment
Outside Indo Harbour, inside the Hot Springs lodge on Mount Tamik.
"His Excellency Wimbledon Einhorn, Duke of Grey Castle, and His Excellency Yin Van Andronik, Archbishop of the Church of the God of War, are in Presence in Into, and will be attending the 'Twilight Day Celebration' at the Pitt Grand Hotel." Abner, who was having afternoon tea with two ladies, "greedy" and "lazy", casually flipped through the "Indo Morning Post" in his living room.
Hearing Abner's whisper, "Lazy" Crossfia turned to Miss "Greedy" Ksenia and asked:
"I remember the Duke of Greycastle was the father of your student?"
She was wearing a loose beige bathrobe and looked like she had just finished bathing in the hot springs.
Countess Ksenia, who was also wearing a bathrobe and had long hair tied behind her head, nodded and said, "That's right, Nasari is Wimbledon's daughter." ”
"That Duke of Greycastle is also extraordinary, isn't he? What level? Abner also looked over at this time and asked curiously.
"Wimbledon Einhorn himself is a 'Predator Knight', but he secretly seems to have a good relationship with a certain organization, and has the full support of the other party, acting as an intermediary between that organization and the royal family, so he was named the Duke of Real Power." Ksenia, Countess of Rouse, thought for a moment and added, "But he probably also feels that his current position is awkward, so except for the eldest son, he has been deliberately alienating the rest of the children, leaving them to fend for themselves and provide only some necessary support."
"That's why Nasari became my student."
"Lazy" Cross Fia heard this, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a dimple, and said with a smile: "It seems that the organization that colludes with him is not a serious thing." ”
"Greed" Ksenia pondered for a moment and said in an uncertain tone, "It is rumored that the person who contacted him is likely to be the 'Demon' family. ”
The "Demon" family...... "Andrerad" after Yadabao's integration? Well, judging by the memories of the Beria family members such as "Checia", "Andrerad" is indeed hiding in the territory of Vusak.
Based on the nightmare of the adventurer rescued by Dunn's "embarrassing" role as a hero in the script of the last time we were outside of "Castle at Dusk", it is likely that the "demons" are stationed in the Antars Mountains.
And the "Grey Castle" is located at the southern foot of the Antars Mountains!
Seeing Abner's thoughtful expression, Cross Fia untied her head and spread her beautiful long brown hair away, and asked, "What comes to mind?" ”
"I don't think this 'Twilight Day Celebration' is ...... easy," Abner replied earnestly.
Every time Yadabao appears, something big happens...... Compared with him, his "party disaster" physique is actually a bit unworthy of the name.
And now in Indo Harbor, the four members of the "Psychological Alchemy Society", including himself, the former Archbishop of the Dark Night Church Incs Zangwill, the "Archcon of Death" Azk and other high-order existences have all gathered here for various reasons......
plus the "man behind the scenes" who guided Leonard's "Red Glove" team all the way with the help of the "Black Blade", and the "Yadabao" looming behind the Duke of Grey Keep......
As an "insight", although Abner failed to detect the changes in the "River of Destiny", he also had a premonition that "the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings".
"Of course it won't be easy...... From what I've gotten, it seems like the royal family and the church are going to publicly recognize a 'black blade' who has just returned from a mission in Rune. "Greedy" Ksenia took over the conversation, and then sighed, "It seems that war is difficult to avoid......"
Publicly commend the "black blade" who does dirty work, and Bacheng will shake out the ugly things done by the slain viscount...... This is a slap in the face of Rune and the Church of the Night!
So actively engage in friction?
Thinking so in his heart, Abner also somewhat understood why Fursac would hold such a large-scale "celebration" here in Into.
As one of the port cities with the closest trade with Rune, Indo Port does not want war, and there are even many people who come from Rune here who retain their belief in the goddess...... Therefore, it is natural to engage in a wave of "smearing".
Nodding slightly, Abner pointed to another name published in the newspaper, "Yin Van Andronik", and asked, "Why haven't I heard of this archbishop of the God of War Church?" ”
At least the "learning space" of the "Iceberg Lieutenant General" did not have this person on the list of archbishops of the God of War Church that he had provided to him.
The countess also shook her head and said, "I don't know the origin of this person, as if he suddenly appeared...... Never heard of it before. ”
At this point, she changed her tone and said in a speculative tone, "However, this is not without precedent...... I think most of the 'archbishops' who have appeared so suddenly are from the 'Inquisition'! ”
The "Inquisition" does not exist in the rest of the Orthodox Churches, and only the "God of War Church", which monopolizes all the beliefs of the Visak Empire and only allows the "Mother Earth God Church" to preach on a small scale, has set up this kind of organization to punish heresy.
It is worth mentioning that although the "Mother Earth God Church" also monopolizes the faith of the Fenerport Kingdom, the religious atmosphere is actually not very strong.
Only a semi-giant bishop from Vrsack, such as Utravsky, was keen to proselytize and develop believers, and most of the others were "salted fish" like Miss "Lazy".
It is indeed necessary to suppress and smear the "Church of the Night" and send out a demigod from the "Inquisition" to come to the town, no wonder it will be this Yin Fan who came to Indogang, not other archbishops.
However, understanding is understanding, but your behavior of smearing the goddess of the night, I feel very unhappy when I look at it...... Perhaps, I should do Leonard a hand and kill that "black blade" secretly?
Just as Abner was pondering whether to "curse" or spread "disease", a three-headed python suddenly emerged from the void.
It has a thick bowl mouth, more than five meters long, and has a figure on the back of each of the three heads of the neck.
The figure on the head and neck in the middle is a blood-red spear.
However, none of the three of them cared about its appearance, instead focusing on the letter in its middle head.
- This is the "messenger" of the "greedy" Ksenia.
The countess took the letter, opened it, glanced at it a few times, handed it to "Sloth", and said:
"'Gluttony' made me wait for someone in front of the Pete Hotel, and I also pointed out that that person had the opportunity to be promoted to 'Insight'......
"Is this to take advantage of my 'greedy' nature? But why didn't he give the name of the person I was asked to wait for? ”
Ksenia scoffed at this, she is now a "lazy" person, and she has to ask for the consent of "lazy" when encountering major things, and naturally she will no longer be affected by the mask of "greed".
Abner took the letter and read it a few times, and then a glimmer of realization arose in his heart:
"'Gluttony' should be a pawn with some kind of layout......
"It seems that the bureau of Indo Port is ...... Far more than I could have imagined! ”
