Chapter 151: The Pope
Hearing this voice, Adrien suddenly put away his frivolous expression and became serious, and Marklov stopped speaking.
Leah's mood is a little complicated, what she has encountered along the way can be said to be the Pope's handiwork, and she doesn't know if she can stay calm when she sees the other party for a while.
Leah took two deep breaths, trying to calm her mood down, since she was already going to be this holy woman, sometimes she had to control her emotions, and this could be regarded as the price required to obtain such a status.
Soon after, a figure in a purple robe walked into the room, he was tall, with long blond hair, and his face was very handsome, almost like a beautiful man who had come out of a painting.
It's just that Leah had a very familiar feeling when she saw the Pope's face for no reason, but no matter how she recalled, she couldn't remember where she had seen this face.
Because she couldn't think of anything for a while, Leah put the matter aside.
The Pope couldn't help frowning when he saw that Marklov and Adrien had come here first, he was still thinking about whether he could take this last chance to instill some ideas in favor of the Cardinals in Leah, and now it seems that this matter is no longer a joke.
However, the Pope is worthy of being the leader of the House of Cardinals, and he quickly ** the mood, allowing a gentle smile on his face, giving people a very cordial feeling.
"Hello, my name is Antonio, I am the leader of the College of Cardinals, the Pope of the Holy Spirit Cult, I have heard about you, you have really worked hard along the way, but as long as you get here, you can rest assured. "If you just look at Antonio's current performance, who would have thought that he was the mastermind behind the plot to kill Leah, I have to say that this man is really as cunning as a fox.
To be honest, Leah didn't expect that the person who had always wanted to kill herself would show such a kind and kind expression after seeing her, she couldn't keep up with the other party's rhythm for a while, she just smiled stiffly, and gently held Antonio's outstretched hand: "Hello, His Majesty the Pope, my name is Leah." ”
"Antonio, put away your disgusting style, no one here knows what you're up to, hum!" Seeing Antonio like this, Adrien couldn't help but snort coldly, he didn't hide his meaning at all, as the chief referee, he still didn't like those things that went around the corner.
Moreover, the relationship between the Cardinal and the Inquisition is already tense to the extreme, and it is almost a conflict between the skin of the face, and he is too lazy to give the Pope a good look.
"Adrien, you can't talk nonsense, what do you mean I have a bad idea, do you want to say that I want to assassinate the future Holy Maiden? As the leader of the Cardinals, how could I do such a thing to damage the Holy Spirit Cult, speaking of which, I have already explored the den of the pirates who attacked His Highness the Holy Maiden last time, just now, I have already sent a fleet, thinking that those pirates will soon be on the spot, right?"
Antonio did not panic at all because of Adrian's words, he still had an amiable and elegant smile on his face, and the words in his mouth made Leah realize the essence of this person in an instant, he was not only able to completely deny what he had done without changing his face, but also took the means of erasing the evidence at the first time, I have to say that Antonio is really a cunning and witty existence.
The existence of such a person as an enemy is undoubtedly something that all people do not want to see.
"My Highness, I am here to express my deep apologies for this incident, if we had detected that someone was trying to attack you and sent someone to protect you, things would not have become so troublesome. Antonio actually bowed slightly to Leah and took the initiative to apologize.
Leah is even more jealous of Antonio, and the other party can take the initiative to admit her mistake to herself, a little girl who has not officially become a saint, which is undoubtedly a very dangerous signal.
A proud wise man and a wise man who can bend and stretch, the latter is undoubtedly much more threatening, because he can do anything to achieve his goals, the former is often bound by the pride of his heart, while the latter will never be like this.
Leah gradually understood why the Cardinal's House was so powerful, compared to Antonio, although Adrien also had wisdom, but he was completely unable to be as cunning as him, and he could not leave behind the pride of the strong in his heart.
"Well, now is not the time to talk about that," Maklov spoke, "and I think you all know very well that in five days is the end of God's destiny, and it's almost time to prepare for that day." ”
"God's Destiny?" Leah's expression moved, remembering what Tuya had said that in order for her identity to be officially recognized, she had to receive the blessing of the goddess of light, and this blessing could only be performed on certain days of the year.
And this divine designation obviously refers to that specific time.
"Isn't it too quick to have a blessing ceremony in such a hurry?" Antonio said lightly.
"I'm also in favor of completing the ceremony sooner rather than later, lest anything bad happen during this time, Leah has already suffered a lot, and it's a good thing to have her identity confirmed a day earlier, am I right, His Majesty the Pope. Adrien looked at Antonio with a sneer.
Antonio didn't say anything, just chuckled and bowed, not at all meaning to confront Adrien head-on, which made Adrien feel like he was punching in the air, and his face suddenly became a little gloomy.
"You guys, don't tell me about such an important matter!"
At this moment, a rough voice came into the room, and then from the side of the door walked in a burly man more than two meters tall, he looked about forty years old, with short hard black hair like the thorns of a hedgehog, and his face was well-defined, and at first glance he was a man with the surname Ge Jian......
On top of that, he was wearing a silvery-white piece of heavy armor, which made a "click" sound as he moved, making him look like a small, moving fortress.
Leah couldn't help but take two steps back when she saw this man who suddenly appeared, and she was standing in front of the other party with a height of less than one meter six, and could only look up at his chin, which brought her a lot of pressure.
"Well, is this what you call a holy woman? Why is she so weak? The man glanced at Leah and couldn't help but frown.
"Ronaldo, don't you look at a woman's surname in the same way as a man? You don't want to think about what a woman has to look good about if she is full of muscles. Adrien looked at Ronaldo dissatisfied, as Lori, he really didn't want to see Leah being counted down like this.
Leah couldn't help but think of Lilith in the Rose Academy in Minas City, far away in Minas City, her body was full of muscles, and she couldn't see the softness of the female surname at all.
"Hmph, what can this thin arm and thin leg do?" Ronaldo snorted dissatisfiedly.
"Your Highness, this is the Grand Knight Captain of the Holy Knights, Ronaldo. Maklov reminded in a whisper beside Leah.
Leah then knew that the other party was the leader of the last Holy Knights of the three major forces of the Holy Spirit Cult, Adrien once commented that they were all a group of martial artists, thinking about ** things every day, and now it seems that this Ronaldo is indeed a guy who is dedicated to martial arts......
Leah thought for a while and decided to take this opportunity to show her ability, after all, she was going to become a saint, and it was not okay to continue to be so weak.
"Hello, Grand Knight Commander Ronaldo. Leah smiled and said hello.
"No, not at all, you look at you like this, you look like a doll, a little bit of a saint. Ronaldo looked at Leah's cute appearance and kept shaking his head.
"In that case, the Grand Knight Commander will personally verify how it is, whether I am weak or not, let's use the facts to explain. Leah chuckled and looked at Ronaldo, her expression was very confident, because her strength was already at the level of a monster among her peers, and Leah didn't believe that she couldn't let Ronaldo admit herself.
"Haha! That's a bit of a saint," Ronaldo couldn't help but laugh when he heard Leah's words, "Don't forget! You're going to be the leader of a force, and you can't have the slightest cowardice in your heart when you sit in this position, it will only lead you and your men to destruction!"
Ronaldo's attitude towards Leah is obviously much better than just now, it is obvious that his surname is the kind of straightforward and straightforward surname, although such a person sometimes speaks a little hurtful, but it is difficult to arouse the bad feelings of others.
"I wonder if the Grand Knight Captain is interested in taking my blow?" asked Leah with a smile.
"Haha! Interesting, really interesting, it seems that you are also a wonderful person, in that case, what does it matter if I take your blow, but don't let me down, I am not interested in tickling attacks. Ronaldo let out a big laugh.
"Your Highness, isn't it inappropriate to do this...... Marklov whispered with some concern, he doesn't know much about Leah's strength now, but with her age, she can't think of too exaggerated strength.
"Grandpa Mark, you can rest assured, I won't do things that I am not sure of, this incident can just show my ability, so that there will be less rumors in the future, the test of the Temple of Light this time should be hidden, this will inevitably appear in the future There will be rumors that the saint is a vase, even so, it is better to solve this matter today." Leah had a confident look on her face.
Maklov didn't expect Leah to think about this step, and he couldn't help but show a relieved expression on his face. (To be continued.) )
