Jenkins heard Mary crying while holding him:
"What's going on here?"
He asked his father Robert, who also seemed in a bad mood:
"The church told us about you."
"You know now that I'm the savior? Oh, it's a great honor. Rather than being a king, the savior is the real one..."
"Bishop Parode told us about the danger you will face, and he thinks we have the right to know."
The oldest of the three Williamette brothers, who has always been of little talk, Newman Williamette said. He huddled and sat on the armrest of the sofa, with his hands put together on his knees. Look at your younger brother with the movement of looking up:
"The bishop said it was dangerous."
Jenkins didn't speak immediately, but hugged Mary and patted her on the back, separated from his mother before saying:
"Actually, this..."
"You tell us the truth, how dangerous is it?"
Mary looked at Jenkins with red eyes and asked, he knew that even if he was lying, his family would probably not be able to tell, but this time he did not intend to lie:
"Very dangerous... Probably, there is nothing in the world that is more dangerous than this."
While confident in himself, Jenkins also knows what reality is.
"Do you have to go?"
"Yes, for the world."
Mary turned and hugged her husband again, and finally wept softly. Jenkins forced a smile and looked at his elder brother:
"Actually, it's really no problem. Although there are dangers, someone has to bear all this."
"Jenkins, we'd be proud of you."
Newman said.
"Jenkins, you will always be my brother."
Little John also said.
Jenkins smiled again, this time sincerely. He wanted to comfort his mother Mary again, but Newman had good news:
"Say some good news, our family is going to have a next generation."
"What's the meaning?"
"Brother's fiancée is pregnant."
Newman showed an embarrassed expression, so this is the news from John.
"Oh, congratulations, that's great, Robert and Mary are going to be grandfathers and grandmothers sooner than I thought."
The eldest brother Newman's wedding was planned to be held within six months, especially after Jenkins officially announced his succession to the crown a week ago, the eldest brother's fiancée's family urged the wedding date to be brought forward many times. Therefore, it doesn't matter even if the marriage is with a child, but it would be better to let the bride wear the wedding dress within three months in advance so that the belly of the bride will not be too obvious. After all, everyone wants to save face.
And counting the time, Jenkins met his niece in the second future he experienced in the Nolan Gallery. The date at that time was 3:25 p.m. on the first weekend of [The Moon of the Craftsman and the Rain] in 1880 according to the common calendar, about 14 years from now. Therefore, it can be considered that the unborn baby is in The girl who meets Jenkins in the future and calls him "Uncle Jenkins".
"Have you thought about a name?"
He didn't want to talk about his responsibility as a savior, so he wanted to use this topic to make his family members not so sad. Although the eldest brother Newman looks dull, his mind is actually very delicate, and he cooperated with Jenkins to divert the topic:
"If it's a boy, we're going to call him Spencer Robert Williams, and if it's a girl, Kris Marie Williams."
"Very nice name. I noticed that the middle name is related to our family. Does your fiancée have any objections?"
The middle name can be grandparents, but the two names given are related to the Williams family, and the other family will inevitably have opinions.
"In fact, they would have liked to have been able to use the current king's name as a middle name."
Newman shrugged at Jenkins:
"You know, after our family became the royal family, all the criticisms of me were gone. After you became the king, they wished... Forget it, let's not talk about it, I don't like to speak ill of people behind their backs. "
If Alexia is here, she can be sure that the baby born a year later must be the future niece. When they were in the Northland, Jenkins and Alexia boarded the [Dawn Steam Train] together. Jenkins was looking for chocolates running around on the train, and Alexia had a conversation with the niece, not only got I got the box that would give Jenkins a second chance, and even got to know the girl's name.
But now this niece will not have any involvement with Jenkins. Her story will not happen until decades later.
After finishing talking with his family, seeing that there was still some distance before lunch, Jenkins originally wanted to leave the church and visit his friends outside the church first, that is, the old elf, Mr. Hood, Mr. Black Cat and Mr. White Cat. If time is enough, I also want to say hello to the neighbor Mr. Goodman's family.
But almost as soon as he came out of the building where his family was, he was caught by his father again:
"where did you go?"
"Mary and Robert have business with me."
"Is it over?"
"it's over."
"Then come with me."
As he spoke, he took Jenkins to the khaki tower on the left side of the courtyard, returned to the main building complex of the church through the side door on the second floor of the tower, and finally came to the large conference room on the fourth floor.
This is usually the conference room used by the high-ranking staff of the Holy See when they come from Beldyran. Two long and two curved tables are put together to form a circular conference table in the center. The walls were filled with chairs, and they were all full of people at the moment.
There were about 40 or 50 people present, except for the father, the weakest one was also a seventh-level gifter, and most of them were demigods.
It wasn't in Jenkins' script that Pop sat at the table next to Miss Bevanna, and next to "Miss Fabry."
The chair people left for Jenkins was the one with its back facing the door. The main seat facing the door was left unoccupied, because no one was qualified to sit there. The sage and holy son, Miss Stress, who presided over the meeting, sat on the left hand side of the main seat.
"What is this for?"
Jenkins asked rudely.
"Certainly make a plan."
"what's the plan?"
"Aren't you going to that tower?"
"Oh. Yes...but need a plan?"
From the perspective of the church, of course planning is required. While they can't influence what happens after Jenkins enters the Metal Tower, they can prepare for Jenkins' entry into the Metal Tower.
This will be a battle that will affect the future. Although everyone can only watch Jenkins go to a battlefield that they cannot reach, they can provide the last help for the savior.
"If that's the case... In fact, you don't need to be so troublesome. You still have to come to the meeting. You don't need to explain too much to me about the delusion. After all, I have already experienced double-digit deceptions throughout the year..."
He hadn't mentioned this matter to the church before, but when he mentioned it now, neither his father nor Miss Bevanna showed any strange expressions, obviously thinking that these things are not important now.
"But the use of abilities is restricted in the strange world, so I need powers other than abilities, that is, numbered items, alchemy items, potions, and various spells. The A-type tricks are fine, and the B-type extraordinary can carry some appropriately. , but what I need most is the gift, the more the better. Since the ninth floor tower will be raised in the early hours of this night, in order to prevent the difference engine from sublimating first, I will set off before two o'clock in the morning. Before that, please Churches get as many C gifts as possible."
Because entering a strange world is actually a special way of space transfer, space items and abilities will be affected, so it is impossible to use storage items like silver dragon scales to carry thousands of tons of spells and ritual materials Into the strange world.
Gift is the most suitable weapon, especially for Jenkins, this kind of item that does not need to be carried in a container and has a high priority of effect is really suitable.
The church quickly sprang into action, looking for weapons and props as Jenkins requested. In order to deal with the end of the era, the churches had already transported some important weapons and props to the center of the storm, so it didn't take long for him to pick them out, probably around dinner time.
Although Jenkins thought that there was no need for a meeting after this, and it might be better to let himself be quiet before entering the tower, the old man still asked for a simple meeting around eleven o'clock tonight.
After all, it is the last time. The church needs to plan and arrange a response plan when various possibilities arise. It needs the savior to understand that everything is to save the world, and it needs to ensure that the savior can come back alive. A meeting before midnight is necessary.
It seemed that everyone in the church was anxious and busy for the savior to enter the nine-story tower, but only Jenkins seemed indifferent.
"Jenkins, why don't you look worried at all?"
asked Dad after this meeting was over.
"Why worry?"
"This is the final battle. From the purple star that appeared in the sky last year to now, we have been preparing for the end of the year. What you are going to do now is something that will affect the direction of civilization. Isn't that something to worry about?"
What the old man said made sense, but ever since he knew that he was going to enter the tower in the early hours of this night, Jenkins relaxed for the first time in a long time, as if everything didn't matter. He thinks it's a state of mind under stress, but it could just be relaxation after knowing the deadline and not having to worry and worry.
"The final battle, father, I read from the book that before the final battle, people will hold a banquet for the warriors to practice. Don't forget to inform the kitchen and let them prepare a sumptuous dinner for me... and chocolate."
"Jenkins..."
A sad expression suddenly appeared on the father's face, he quickly turned his face away, patted Jenkins on the shoulder, and then hurried away.
"It's rare to see Dad look like this."
Miss Bevanna approached Jenkins with her large book in her arms and said:
"However, I am different from my father. I believe in you very much. You will be able to succeed. Since you asked my father to be responsible for the dinner when you practice, then I will be in charge of the banquet to welcome you."
She smiled, patted Jenkins, and left. Jenkins looked at Miss Bevanna's back. In fact, he knew that he was not as confident as he appeared on the surface.
