Demons are completely chaotic creatures in nature. Their twisted and frantic minds only have killing and destruction, and they are born to be enemies of all life in this world. Even if all life in this world is wiped out, resulting in the complete destruction of the foundation of this world's existence, and the destruction of itself, which has been fed on the souls of mortals, the devil will still do such things without hesitation, which will eventually lead to its own destruction.
Complete disorder, complete chaos, and no reason to exist only for destruction. It is difficult to imagine that a world structured with rules and precepts would produce such an existence that is completely contrary to the world itself.
Demons are existences that must be completely eliminated, and there must be no tolerance!
"I also agree to put the matter of the Kingdom of Saxony on hold for the time being. When we have a good opportunity to continue taking action in the future, we will temporarily let those sons of bitches┉┉ah~ I'm sorry, Your Majesty the Pope, let those damn unbelievers run rampant for a while."
Arnold Auerbach, one of the cardinals, this cardinal who is over 10 years old has always been an outspoken person. He always curses at his enemies and subordinates, and constantly condemns himself every time. own crimes. Although his temper was a bit grumpy, the diocese managed by Bishop Arnold wiped out almost all cultists and heretics, and the believers fanatically worshiped the goddess Ishtar and the goddess' spokesperson. He was like a general who was always full of anger, scolding his enemies, and at the same time scolding his subordinates to win one victory after another for him. Many people in the Holy See privately gave Arnold the nickname 'Red General'!
Arnold stood up like a general reporting the war situation and said forcefully to Pope Julian: "Your Majesty the Pope! In fact, the biggest problem now is not Saxony but the Kingdom of Belrama. Recently, the third king of the Kingdom of Belrama Salvatore Calenta, this stupid pig-like king~ Sorry! The rise of this third king is too fast, and it has begun to threaten the inheritance of the second king Dean┉┉ "
"Silvado Calenta?" Pope Julian pondered for a moment and asked: "I have only heard about Silvado accidentally. It is said that his evaluation is very bad. Do you have his detailed information? ?"
Arnold's eyes were blazing as he said: "Not only is it bad for His Majesty the Pope! This king is simply a complete fool. Many nobles and officials in the Kingdom of Belrama privately call him the Idiot King. Originally, his origin was He was destined to be exiled from the power of the Belrama Kingdom, but recently he suddenly gained the favor of the old king and became the lord of the Golden Spike Territory. "
"As a king who wants to continue to hold the throne, when faced with two sons who have grown up and are trying to seize power, they must want to have a chess piece that can check and balance them, right?"
Although Pope Julian does not like to pay too much attention to secular power struggles, the intelligence network established by the Holy See on this continent still continuously feeds important information back to the Holy Mountain. Regarding the power disputes in the Kingdom of Belrama, although Julian does not Familiar but not ignorant.
"Your Majesty the Pope! I have to admit that this is indeed a possibility." Arnold nodded in agreement but quickly rejected the idea: "But judging from the recent situation, the current king of the Kingdom of Belrama loves Silvado. It's a bit beyond common sense. Not only did Silvado get the richest territory, he also got certain rights to build an army and self-control. If the old king really wanted to use Silvado as a check and balance, If you play chess, you won’t give up too much power.”
Julian couldn't help but become confused, indeed! This is really suspicious.
Cardinal Magat added at this time: "Your Majesty the Pope, regarding the sudden appearance of the old king of the Kingdom of Belrama who overly doted on Silvado, I actually think that the old king may have been affected by some kind of influence. It is necessary to conduct a detailed investigation into the control of evil arts. If possible, we can perform a Holy Light Praise to the old king during this year's blessing ceremony to determine whether there is any evil magic controlling the king. "
Julian nodded in agreement and also made suggestions: "I agree with your idea, Cardinal Mag, but what should we do if the old king refuses to participate in the blessing ceremony? You must know that the king of Belrama is old, even if It’s understandable that you don’t come to participate. Besides, some confused people in the secular world still have a grudge against the goddess’s blessing. As believers of the goddess, we cannot use coercion, otherwise the confused people in the secular world will be in danger.”
The divine right of kings is the most desired goal of the Holy See. This world is shrouded in the sacred light of the goddess Ishtar, the only master in the world. All mortals are the subjects of the goddess, even emperors are no exception! The goddess is the holder of the scepter and has the obligation to protect them, guide them, save them, and punish them!
Under the guidance of the goddess's teachings and beliefs, human greed will be restrained, armies will not kill indiscriminately, merchants will not cheat, and countries will be unified under one will without conflicts, and human behavior will Only the most promising race can truly stand on top of this world and promote the rapid advancement of civilization in the entire world!
What is sad is that some short-sighted and confused people only know how to grasp the power and wealth in front of them, rejecting the unity of will, rejecting the progress of light, and rejecting the best blessings that the goddess has brought to this world! For their own selfish desires, they push countless innocent people into pain and disaster, and set off one meaningless war after another in this world!
There was a trace of sadness in Julian's eyes. Human nature is so pathetic, and the eyes of mortals are so narrow. Only the goddess Ishtar can bring real peace and progress to this world!
"If this is the case, then we can only instigate King Dean to ascend the throne as soon as possible. Recently, the voice of dissatisfaction with the old king in the Kingdom of Belrama has gradually grown. However, King Victor has received the support of some conservatives and aristocrats. Now Supporting King Dean’s rash action may give Victor a reputation as a righteous person.”
Tanaia, the only female among the cardinals, summarized the current situation. Cardinal Tanaia is responsible for the operation of the choir and hymns in the Holy See that promote and praise the goddess. At the same time, this cardinal is also a A master-level pharmacist with a very high status among the four cardinals.
Pieces of information were presented to Pope Julian. Now the situation in the Kingdom of Belrama is in a delicate state of balance. The king and the two kings are evenly matched. The two people who are facing each other are like confronting each other. The old king is like a weight to balance the two of them. At least when the old king is still alive, neither Victor nor Dean dares to take the lead in provoking a war. The sudden rise of Silvado is like a It's the same as the blood-sucking louse attached to the two beasts. Although both beasts hate the louse, no one dares to pay too much attention to the louse during the confrontation. This only puts Silvado in the gap between the beasts. It grew rapidly.
If the old king is suddenly used as a weight, the two kings will definitely plunge the entire Kingdom of Belrama into civil war. This is not the outcome that the Holy See wants to see. After all, when the Holy See confronts the Holy City, no matter whether it is between countries, War or a country's own civil war will damage the prestige of the Holy See. This is the case with the local war between the Carlseman Empire and the Kingdom of Creses. Although the two sides have signed an armistice agreement with the efforts of the Holy See, this undoubtedly still gives people An impression that the power of the gods could not restrain the warlike king!
"Since we can't open a breakthrough here, are there any candidates in the Kingdom of Belrama who are worthy of the goddess's favor?" Pope Julian thought deeply after hearing this. It is obvious that Dean, the candidate, is now checkmate and unable to move. Now he can only If it can be temporarily frozen, the Holy See needs to find new candidates.
Tanaya nodded: "There is still one person in the Kingdom of Belrama who is worthy of the goddess's favor, and that is the eldest princess Rafina! Although Princess Rafina has no intention of participating in this political struggle, more or less Princess Rafina Du secretly helped his brother, the second king Dean, who was two years older than him, several times, and Princess Refina was good friends with Eliza, the daughter of the richest man in the Kingdom of Belrama, Jerson Westphalen. Some time ago, Princess Refina We also entrusted Alisa to go to the Golden Spike Territory to find out information about Silvado. This princess should be worth fighting for, Your Majesty the Pope!"
"Ms. Tanaya, there has been new news in the Golden Spike Territory recently. It seems that Lord Silvado led his troops into the special envoy's mansion and captured the fugitives who attacked the special envoy's mansion. As the special envoy, Alisa also thanked the lord for his help. Rescue." Cardinal Arnold explained the newly obtained intelligence: "But according to the intelligence personnel's report, that White King Silvador probably led his troops to surround the special envoy for other reasons. Mansion."
Pope Julian waved his hand to signal Cardinal Arnold to calm down: "Although the information is not comprehensive, under the current situation, Princess Lefina is indeed worthy of the Holy See. Someone can be sent to contact Her Royal Highness to explain the current situation of the old king. , it is best to enlist the help of Princess Lefina to allow the old king to participate in the blessing ceremony┉┉"
Pope Julian paused after saying this, and the tone of his next sentence suddenly became serious with unquestionable majesty: "Bishop Mago, please inform Bishop Iseno who is still in the North and let him stop by when he returns to the Holy Mountain. Visit the following Kingdom of Belrama. If it is found that the old king is really controlled by evil spirits, then the most suspected King Silvado must be thoroughly investigated. If it is really found that Silvado has used evil magic, or is in contact with the cultists ┉┉If there is even collusion with the devil, then no matter how noble Silvado’s status is, he must be severely punished in the name of the goddess Ishtar!”
"Yes! Your Majesty the Pope! In the name of Ishtar, the goddess of light!"
