-5- Archpriest of the diocese

Charlotte's lack of visitors was a surprise.

To be honest, she didn't believe that she was really forgotten, the Castel family's convoy was still very strong, it was impossible for the nobles of the royal capital not to know about it, and as the victor of the Boulder-Castel War, she was not destined to be a minor role that could be ignored at the Central Committee.

Standing on the windowsill, Charlotte looked at the deserted streets outside the manor.

Perhaps because of the estate's remote location in the inner city, there were few pedestrians on the streets, but Charlotte's keen sense of awareness gave her a sense of prying eyes.

The feeling was intense, and it was ...... Not just from one place.

Obviously just standing in front of the windowsill, obviously just facing the deserted street, Charlotte has a feeling as if she is in the spotlight, being watched by many eyes.

And when she followed this spiritual sense to look in all directions, the sense of being spied in that direction would be correspondingly diminished......

Charlotte's heart fluttered slightly.

She quietly mobilized a trace of the divine power of blood and communicated with the "Blood Sacred Codex" in her consciousness.

After fusing the idol, her control of the Blood Sacred Book was also more like an arm, and under the mobilization of divine power, Charlotte's already sharp spiritual sense was suddenly strengthened again.

In an instant, she could "see" the scene around the manor, and "see" the eyeliner that was centered on the manor she rented, hiding everywhere to observe.

One, two, three...... Even if it's just a rough "look", there must be at least a dozen, and they obviously belong to different forces.

Charlotte: ......

So, she's really not forgotten.

On the contrary, she is too important.

No one comes to contact, it doesn't mean that no one wants to be contacted, but I don't know for what reason, no one wants to be the first to contact.

All of them invariably chose to wait and see in secret.

"Master, it seems...... The situation in the royal capital is even more delicate than we imagined, and the struggle between the king, the nobles, and the church has reached a fever pitch here."

Sebas was obviously aware of the problem, and said without moving.

Listening to her housekeeper's words, Charlotte was thoughtful.

She narrowed her eyes and suddenly smiled:

"It's okay, since no one wants to visit, let's go out on our own."

Sebas's heart moved:

"Where are you going?"

Charlotte glanced at him and said leisurely:

"What else, as a devout holy believer, after arranging accommodation, of course I have to go to church to pray."

With Charlotte's order, the whole manor was quickly busy.

After lunch, she got into the carriage and left her lodgings and headed for the cathedral of the royal capital.

And as soon as the carriage drove out of the manor, Charlotte was keenly aware of those secret eyeliners and immediately began to act together.

She snorted and smiled, but she didn't bother to bother with them.

……

Located in the western part of the inner city of the royal capital, not far from Charlotte's leased estate, and across the river from the Royal Palace and the Central Council, the Cathedral of Lutecia is also a typical West Unette building.

As the heart of the Crescent Diocese, the Cathedral of Lutesia is also the largest church in the entire Crescent Kingdom, hosting thousands of holy devotees from all over the country every day.

Charlotte did not make a formal visit to the church as the Castelles, but drove directly to the church as a believer.

But even so, the cathedral, which heard the news, received her with great pomp.

I saw that in front of the cathedral, the priests in divine robes were lined up on both sides, and it seemed that they had already received the news and were ready.

The priest who greeted him was dressed in a white robe with a sun badge on his chest.

That's the sign of the blazing sun.

Charlotte was greeted by a blazing sun-level great priest!

"Your Excellency Count Castel, welcome to the Cathedral of Lutesia, may the divine light always be with you......

"The High Priest learned of your arrival yesterday and has been waiting for you in the church for a long time."

The Grand Priest, dressed in a white robe, drew a ring cross symbol on his chest and said with a smile on his face.

Big...... The High Priest?

Charlotte's heart jumped.

In the Holy Court, only the highest priest of the diocese can be called the high priest.

And...... Strength is legendary.

In other words, from the moment she entered the royal capital, she had already registered with the big boss of the Holy Court Crescent Diocese.

It was a bit of a surprise.

You must know that the high priest in the Holy Court has always had a transcendent status, more power than the Grand Inquisitor, and more noble than the monarchy of many countries.

On weekdays, apart from kings and legends, few people can see him on other occasions outside of public events, and even ordinary dukes have difficulty meeting him.

It was also for this reason that Charlotte dared to visit the Cathedral of Lutesia with great swagger.

But now, the other party is waiting for Charlotte in the cathedral, and it sounds like he's been waiting for a long time.

Caught off guard, really caught off guard......

Charlotte didn't expect that she avoided the Grand Inquisitor and the Cardinal Priest who went to the Northland to investigate, but after coming to the royal capital, she directly bumped into the High Priest of the diocese!

Taking a deep breath, Charlotte suppressed the consternation in her heart.

Calm down......

Gotta be calm!

Although she didn't expect the high priest of the diocese to see her by name, she was not completely unprepared to bump into a legendary-level priest!

"Your Excellency Count Castel, here we are."

He smiled at Charlotte.

After speaking, I saw him take a step forward, lightly buckle the wooden door of the prayer room, and said respectfully:

"High Priest, Count Castel has arrived."

"Come in."

An old voice came from inside the door.

"Your Excellency, please."

The High Priest stepped out of the way.

Charlotte took a deep breath and gently pushed the wooden door open.

The prayer room is very basic.

There is only a pair of bookshelves, a table, and two chairs.

An old man in a white robe was sitting on a chair, quietly looking at the laws of the Holy Court.

He sat there, very peaceful, like the most ordinary old man.

In Charlotte's eyes, however, it was a different picture.

"Sun ......"

It was Charlotte's first thought after she saw the dazzling divine power in the room.
