Chapter 0140: Father Bruce's Misunderstanding
"Ryan, you can't have done anything bad to that nun, right? How do I feel like she's running away! ”
Vakarn looked at Attila's departing figure with a strange expression, how embarrassed he looked.
Nock was speechless, could he be blamed for that? It's obviously a ghost done by the little girl Jasmine.
This little girl was reluctant to give up her doughnuts, so she asked people if they wanted to eat them.
As a result, I dragged the bag and didn't open it, you said this was not deliberately gluttonous!
Nock heard Attila swallowing his saliva, but he was afraid that Attila would be embarrassed, so he deliberately didn't mention it.
Nock told Vakarn the truth, and Vakahn looked at Jasmine with a smile in his eyes.
"This kid is the same little guy from two years ago! It's also too much to change. ”
"Who's to say it isn't! I don't know who I learned it from. ”
As soon as Nock said this, Vakka glared at Nok with a strange expression.
Isn't this stinky shameless one a little self-aware?
Two years have passed and Wakan has come to know Nok well.
Although he has not been to Tarn Village again, he does not know much about the news of Tarn Village and Lane.
Especially the fact that Ryan always has a little girl by his side, he knows it.
Teaching by word and deed, it is self-evident who the little girl learned from.
"Forget it, why do you have time to come and see me. Your church is not open? ”
"Recently, there have been no believers coming to the door, and the adventurers are too annoying, so I closed the door and rested."
“…… Wayward. Wakarn could only hold back these two words with envy and hatred.
No way, he was really envious.
Since his promotion to priesthood, the workload has increased.
And there are many believers who have pointed out that they are looking for him.
Especially marriageable female believers.
Although it is known that none of the priests of the Holy Church can get married, there are still people who rush to it.
This is because the church only explicitly stipulates that you cannot get married, but it does not stipulate that you cannot have children.
Many of the "nephews" of bishops in the Church have been raised from a very young age as "heirs" to the bishops.
As to why these nephews look so much like the bishops, it is not clear to them.
It is no secret that the bishops have mistresses.
In addition to not having an obvious identity, the treatment of a woman who is a bishop and a priest is actually not bad at all.
Even, for those women who are pregnant with the bishop's child, it is completely beneficial to find a declining nobleman to marry.
Their nominal husbands give their children a birth, and then their children do not inherit the husband's inheritance, but are brought up by the Church as heirs to a bishop or priest.
And their nominal husband will receive support from a certain big figure in the church, and the family will prosper. Then feed back to the big men of the church and become a force for the big men to fight for power.
As for the wives who would thank the big names of the church from time to time, they would turn a blind eye.
Because they will have their own lovers, and the illegitimate children they give birth to will be in the name of their wives and inherit the family business of their husbands.
That's the deal.
The down-and-out aristocracy made tacit deals with some people in the Church.
This kind of transaction, which lasted for hundreds of years, was ignored by both the nobility and the church.
exists, that is, reasonable.
So, naturally, Wakarn has become one of the hot targets.
It's just that Vakan wasn't interested in that kind of thing.
He was in the same vein as his teacher, and was of the purest ascetic origin.
They study only doctrine and theology, and serve the Lord and the Church wholeheartedly.
Not very keen on power.
"I really envy you for being so willful, I've been tired lately."
Wakarn complained briefly about what had happened to him, which made Nock laugh.
"Otherwise, you can choose one, and if you choose, no one will bother you."
"Hmph, why don't you choose. Don't think I don't know, but so many of the ladies of the city of Seine have come to you. ”
"Hey, a country priest like me doesn't have the confidence of you. Your teacher is a big man in the church, and even the bishop has to sell his face. ”
"you, you have the ability to say this, you tell my teacher."
"Hehe, I don't dare. Father Bruce's gaze was so sharp that I always felt like I was being looked at by him, and I didn't feel uncomfortable looking for it. ”
"Oh, am I that good? How did the old decay not know. ”
The abrupt insertion of the voice made Nock's body stiffen.
He looked at Wakahn, who was smiling evilly, and he didn't know that he had been tricked by him.
"Hahaha, it's a nice day, Father Bruce, you said yes?"
Father Theo Bruce smiled and reached out to touch the well-behaved Jasmine, looked up at the sunset in the sky, and said, "It's really good, the sunset is beautiful, just right for a night conversation with someone." ”
“…… It's not good, children should go to bed early and wake up early, you say yes, little Jasmine. ”
Nokra passed Jasmine and used her as a shield.
Jasmine looked at Father Lane, who was nervous, and then at the kind-looking old man opposite, not understanding why Father Lane was so nervous.
Still, she was on Father Lane's side.
"That's right! Mom said that small children can't go to bed late. It will not grow tall. ”
Father Bruce laughed twice and laughed, "Yes, your mother is right. Little children do have to go to bed early. Only obedient children can grow up healthily, and those bad children who speak ill of their elders behind their backs should be spanked. ”
"Ouch, you can't spank, spanking hurts! Jasmine is a good boy, and a bad boy deserves to be spanked! ”
Jasmine instinctively covered her ass and cowered into Nock's arms in fear.
Her movements amused the three adults.
"Alright, Ryan, why are you here this time?"
Bruce's seemingly casual question made Nock feel the pressure.
Nock doesn't understand why Father Bruce, who is kind to everyone, treats him like this, he seems to be wary of himself.
"Oh, I'm just bored in the village, and I'm going to come to the city to relax. I didn't intend to bother you. However, before we entered the city, we were targeted by trouble. It's inconvenient for me to identify myself, otherwise I'm afraid it will be more annoying than being in the village. Therefore, I plan to use the power of the church in the church to deter those who are restless. ”
"Don't worry, we'll be leaving by tomorrow night at most. The little girl's mother was also worried that she would stay outside for too long. ”
"I see. In that case, you can rest assured. It just so happens that Weiss has been a little tired lately, so I'll give him a day off tomorrow and let him walk with you, so I'll take a break. With him by your side, as long as you have long eyes, they will not trouble you. There are really those who don't have long eyes, and you don't have to be polite, Robert and I will support you. ”
Hearing that Nock was just here to relax, Bruce retracted the momentum that was pressing on Nock and gave him a package ticket.
Anyway, Nock is also a member of the church, and he calls the priest of the church under the nose of the church, what is the difference between that and the church.
Bruce was just afraid that Nock would get big trouble on his students.
But small troubles, there is nothing to be afraid of.
He was just afraid of the trouble behind Nock, but he didn't think about breaking off Nok's relationship with Wakahn.
In Father Bruce's heart, befriending this Ryan has a lot of benefits for his disciple Weiss.
Although their ascetic lineage is strong within the church, they have little authority and can make too few noises.
Especially in recent years, the upper echelons of the Church have been so corrupted that if it were not for the pope's shock, I am afraid that some cardinals would have been restless long ago.
If this Ryan really represents another force, then the ascetic lineage plus their other force will definitely be able to win decision-making power within the church.
No matter how much the Twelve Cardinals fight, they can't threaten them.
That's right, Father Bruce had already misunderstood Father Nock from the time he first met him.
In addition, after Mao Wakarn personally described Ryan's battle with the demons, he affirmed that this Father Ryan was even the heir of that lineage.
After all, this Father Ryan's weapon is almost exactly the same as the legendary holy weapon [Holy Light and Punishment] used back then!
It's just that after the legend was framed, the pair of holy artifacts disappeared.
There are rumors within the church that he was taken away by the heirs of the line where the legend belongs.
Moreover, in all branches of the Church, only those of that vein could use that pair of holy weapons.
Because the attributes of light and darkness are mutually reinforcing, people in the church basically practice divine attributes. Only those who guard the lineage will have a wide variety of attributes.
But those guards have almost no divine attributes.
As for the dark attribute alone, that's the enemy of the church!
It is impossible for such a person to exist within the church on the surface.
Only the descendants of that lineage will have the dark attribute. Because that vein is the dark side of the church, representing the darkness of the church.
All the things that can't be put on the table are solved by people in that lineage.
The existence of that line is a secret even in the upper echelons of the church.
None of the twelve cardinals is qualified to know of their existence.
Only the heirs of the pope who have been in various lineages are entitled to know of their existence.
Other powerful people within the church have heard at most unverifiable legends.
Coincidentally, Father Bruce was the heir to the ascetic lineage.
It's just that because of some things, he stayed away from the center of church power, walked away from the city of Seine, and devoted himself to cultivating his heir.
Vis Wakarn was his chosen successor.
Although Vess's talent cannot be said to be the best, he is the most suitable person for his lineage he has encountered.
So he stayed in the city of Seine and devoted himself to cultivating Weiss to lay the foundation.
Therefore, don't look at Wakahn who only became a priest at the age of thirty-five, and only has the strength of the sixth level of silver, but when it comes to fighting, the average seventh level of silver can't help the current Wakahn.
After Bruce taught the fighting skills and skills of their lineage to Wakaan, Vakahn would be invincible in his class, and it would not be too easy to fight beyond the level.
When the time comes, as long as this Ryan does not use the holy weapon, it is impossible for him to be his disciple's opponent.
How did Nock know that this Father Bruce had misunderstood his origin with only a pair of weapons.
He was an orphan, a person whose identity had not even been recognized by the church, and was mistaken for the heir of a certain branch of the church.
If he knew about this, he would probably laugh off his big teeth happily.
He's the heir to a big man, he's just a disciple of an abandoned priest in the Lionheart Kingdom.
Unless, John, who died young, still has some ulterior identity hidden.
But in that case, it was impossible for John not to tell Nock before he died.
But before he died, that guy hiccuped without leaving anything but nagging and saying a lot of daily nonsense.
Nock really didn't suspect that he had any special status.
Except for a letter of recommendation for Nock to succeed to the position of Father of the Convent of Our Lady, Father John left nothing to confess.
As for the Light and Punishment, Father John did know, but it was not given to Nock by Father John.
It was something that Nock had before he knew John.
It was when he was three years old, and he got it from someone by chance.
The man used the pair of guns to deceive Nock of a whole bag of food, for which Nock was scolded by Sister Merry.
Later, the pair became a tool for Nock to knock walnuts.
If it weren't for Father John's arrival and telling Nock that this was a pair of weapons, [Holy Light and Punishment] would have become a tool for all the children in the monastery to smash walnuts.
Nock did learn how to use Light and Punishment under the guidance of Father John.
But it was only a drive, and after that, John never taught about Light and Punishment again.
Instead, he was taught to practice priesthood.
Therefore, Nock's use of Light and Punishment is very crude. It doesn't correspond to the power of a holy artifact at all.
But Nok didn't know that [Holy Light and Punishment] was a holy weapon, so he didn't care if it was rough or not, it was enough!
Not to mention the fact that this pair of holy artifacts is a symbol of the heir of a certain branch.
Therefore, a person who does not know is misunderstood by an old man who claims to know everything.
But the old man looked tacit, which made Nock stay away from him.
