Or, become the one who controls all monsters and becomes the demon king that is conquered by everyone
Or, should we point our weapons toward the sky and become blasphemers who disrespect the gods
…
Finally, all the images before the guard's eyes disappeared, leaving only the young and weak white-haired boy in front of him.
"Haha, by the way, there's no need to be so troublesome..."
She chuckled, clapped her hands gently, and extended an invitation to Herbert: "Herbert, do you want to come and sit with me in the future?"
"… What?"
Herbert was stunned. He suddenly had a sense of déjà vu, and felt that he had seen this scene somewhere before... Where
Bishop Huijin saw that he was stunned, but he was not anxious and patiently explained: "I like capable young people and often provide them with some help, hoping to help them go further."
Yes.
No matter how you look at the long river of fate and search for the one that will happen in the future among the countless tributaries, it is not as easy and enjoyable as witnessing it with your own eyes.
Bishop Ashes intended to provide Herbert with a little help and extended his olive branch: "Come on, become a member of the Secret Keeper's House."
The three cardinals nominally have their own institutions under their jurisdiction, and the caretaker is responsible for the Convent of Secret Sovereigns.
But the Secret Academy had long been in name only, with only one caretaker and no other monks.
Before Herbert could answer, another person present spoke up first.
"ah?"
Bishop of Thorns:
No, Master Caretaker!
Malcolm, that bastard, came to my place to rob people, but why did he do the same to you? !
And in front of me!
You, can't you just carry someone on your back
Even if you let me know the result afterwards, that's fine!
You are indeed someone I cannot afford to offend. I respect you, but you can't bully me like this!
You did it right in front of me, how do you expect me to react
Bishop Thorn felt that he was bullied again and was unwilling to accept this. He wanted to try to fight back and try to keep Herbert.
"Mr. Watcher, this matter..."
As a result, Malcolm, that bastard, rebelled on the spot and took the initiative to bow and said, "There is no problem with the Knights. Everything will be at your disposal."
You bastard!
traitor!
Bishop Thorn was almost out of breath, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "... The Inquisition is also fine."
"very good."
Bishop Ash nodded with satisfaction and gave Bishop Thorn an approving look - it was a pity that one of these two people had an expression that others couldn't see clearly, and the other couldn't see other people's expressions.
It can be described as someone with facial paralysis winking at a blind person.
The three bosses finalized the matter after a brief communication.
As for the wishes of the parties involved, they are naturally meaningless.
Did anyone ask you
Is it really useful if I ask you
Herbert certainly understood the rules and gladly accepted the guard's kind invitation.
"Thank you, Mr. Warden."
"No need to thank me. There are only you and me in the Secret Academy. There are no special rules. There is only one thing you need to pay attention to..."
At this point, Herbert successfully connected the three major departments of the monastery and became a three-way adapter.
Well, this is really exciting. It's a subtle feeling that I seem to have got the script of the heroine in a romantic action movie.
Wait, if that's the calculation...
When Herbert was listening to the guard explaining the rules of the Secret Academy, he suddenly thought of something.
Since I now belong to the Knights Templar, the Inquisition, and the House of Secrets, have I been upgraded
From being a slave of two families, he successfully counterattacked and became a true slave of three families... a slave of three families!
I always feel that the future is getting brighter and better.
"I have a lot of books here. If you need anything, you can come and read it openly. Just remember not to tell others..."
“Ahem!”
The caretaker continued to talk for a while, and finally Bishop Rusty Nail coughed and reminded, "Master Caretaker, His Excellency the Archbishop is still waiting for him."
"Oh yeah, the old man still wants to see you."
The guard also remembered this and waved his hands in disdain, saying to Bishop Rusty Nail perfunctorily, "I know, I know. Okay, the people have been sent to us, and I know your attitudes. You can leave now."
If the purpose was just to escort Herbert, why would two cardinals be needed
One is too many!
They didn't even need to take action themselves, two punishment nuns could easily capture Herbert.
The joint appearance of the two bishops had actually implicitly demonstrated their attitude towards Herbert—they must protect this young man.
"Thank you, sir."
The two bishops said no more, nor did they tell Herbert anything. They just turned around and left.
They have done what they could.
The rest was up to Herbert himself.
Chapter 85 I Trust Her (4/4 plus more)
"Judge, Knight Commander..."
Herbert turned around and bowed silently to the two departing figures.
When the two men just waited outside the Third Discipline House instead of rushing in to arrest him, Herbert had vaguely guessed what the other party meant.
The Archbishop's attitude is still unclear, but the two of them are definitely willing to believe in themselves.
Even though they haven't been together for a long time, she is still willing to trust him.
Herbert was actually a little excited.
Especially after having experienced betrayal and suspicion in the past, this trust is even more touching.
But at the same time, Herbert felt ashamed of this trust.
Because he really is a blasphemous, corrupt and dishonest paladin.
You trusted the wrong person—
"You don't have to thank them, it's just what they should do."
"As a strong person, you must protect the weak."
The guard looked at Herbert who seemed to be thinking about something, and said softly, "Well, don't be nervous. The old man won't do anything to you. Just answer his questions truthfully."
"As long as there is nothing wrong with you, he won't target you."
Bishop Ash pushed the door gently, and the huge stone door slowly revealed a gap large enough for one person to pass through, revealing the sacred space behind it.
"Go ahead."
Herbert nodded silently, hummed, and moved forward.
"Understood."
The innocent will be cleared.
That's true.
But the thing is, I really have a problem.
I'm not clean!
With such helpless complaints, Herbert walked into the Sealed Temple alone, and the stone door behind him slowly closed.
Click.
"Huh..."
After entering, Herbert stopped and let out a long breath. The emotions in his eyes gradually dissipated and finally returned to calm.
He walked slowly in the temple and soon saw the old man sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
"Your Excellency the Archbishop."
The white-bearded old man slowly opened his eyes, nodded, and said softly: "... Sit down."
"yes."
In the silent sanctuary, the two sat facing each other calmly.
Herbert seemed extremely calm at this moment, neither frightened nor excited.
In any case, now that we have come this far, there is no turning back.
Herbert looked at the archbishop quietly, at the old man who was wearing a linen robe like an ordinary old man.
The highest fighting force of the entire monastery is known as a saint walking on earth.
In front of such an existence, clumsy concealment has no meaning at all. It is better to express your thoughts openly.
He was very curious, how powerful was this being
Herbert was watching the Archbishop, and the Archbishop was watching him silently.
But it was not just a superficial observation. Those deep and calm eyes seemed to see through everything, analyzing his soul through his flesh and bones.
It made him feel like he had been seen through completely.
"… "
Finally, the archbishop's gaze finally rested on the back of Herbert's hand.
!
Just when Herbert thought the archbishop had seen something, the old man spoke.
He asked:
“What is life like in a monastery?”
Herbert narrowed his eyes, somewhat confused as to what the archbishop meant.
Chatting at this time
“… I’m getting used to it.”
"Well, you do seem to be adjusting well."
The archbishop nodded and said kindly, "The dragon's trust, the siren's nostalgia, the vampire's kindness, the dark elf's curiosity, the devil's resentment... In just a few days, you have left so many causes and effects."
!!!
Herbert was really shocked this time, as if his underwear was seen through.
explain!
Did you press the surveillance button on me
"you… "
"Don't panic, kid. I don't mean to blame you. On the contrary, you have done much better than I expected."
