Judy rode a white horse all the way to the top of the holy mountain.
Colin took a step forward and reached out to help Judy turn over and get off the horse.
As soon as Ke Lin took over, he realized that the little girl's palms were full of sweat.
"Scared?" Colin whispered in Judy's ear.
Judy shook her head, her eyes firm again.
"That's right." Colin showed a gentle smile, and patted Judy's little hand, "Don't forget what I told you, they are not the spokespersons of the Supreme Lord, but just a group of Xiaoxiao who stole the glory of the Supreme Lord only.
Your authority comes from the noble blood of San Lorenzo, from the support of hundreds of millions of people in the empire, from the protection of the most elite army in the empire, but it has nothing to do with the guy wearing the high crown. "
Hearing Colin's last words, Judy burst out laughing, and her expression eased.
"Go." Colin let go of his hand, letting Judy go forward alone.
"good!"
Judy lifted the hem of the skirt with both hands and went up the steps.
The moment she stepped into the door of the church, the melodious bell rang.
The tall and spacious prayer hall is deliberately designed to be extremely empty, so that people who walk in it unconsciously feel their own insignificance.
The colorful colored glaze casts colorful light and shadows under the shining of the holy light, and the statues of angels on both sides of the hall stand majestically, watching the petite figure who is slowly walking in.
The loud hymns echoed in the hall, and the solemn and solemn atmosphere made people dare not breathe loudly.
Judy paused at the door, looking at the new Pope Mensay standing tall at the other end of the hall, with an imperceptible coldness flashing in his eyes.
But soon, she started to walk again, and walked towards Mensay under the complicated gazes of the imperial nobles watching the ceremony.
After her, Colin also stepped into the prayer hall.
The sound of the hymn suddenly quieted down, as if someone had pressed the mute button.
The holy light that descended from the sky also dimmed a bit, and most of the solemn atmosphere permeating the air dissipated in an instant.
The corners of Mensay's mouth twitched, but seeing the heroic figure strolling over, he didn't dare to say anything.
Even if Colin radiated his coercion so unscrupulously, and expressed his hostility to the church so mercilessly, no one dared to say anything.
As a paladin, he has such strength and confidence!
Judy's footsteps became much lighter in an instant, and she soon came to Mensay.
Mensay looked down at the princess standing straight in front of him, and frowned slightly.
After waiting for a while, seeing that Judy was still standing upright, Mensay had no choice but to point to the mat on the ground, motioning for Judy to kneel down.
I don't know if she didn't understand Mensay's hint, but Judy still stood straight.
Mensay thought she was too nervous and forgot the process, so she had no choice but to straighten her face and began to chant the prayer:
"Judy San Lorenzo, today I crown you in the name of the Most High!
May the Lord guide your path and remove your obstacles!
As the shepherd of our Lord, you should have mercy on your people, respect your vassals, and protect the glory...
From today onwards, you are the emperor of the glorious empire, the monarch of all knights, and the leader of hundreds of millions of human beings!
The supreme lord of glory blesses you, allowing you to enjoy strength and dignity, free from evil! "
Mensay paused for a moment, then turned around and took the crown from the maid, held it high in front of her, and said loudly:
"Judy San Lorenzo, kneel down and receive the blessing of the Most High!"
This sentence is no longer the content of the normal prayer, and it is also Mensa who can only remind Judy aloud after seeing that Judy has not moved for a long time.
However, Judy just stared at Mensay in front of her with a tense face.
The nobles watching the ceremony also realized that something was wrong, and turned their heads to exchange glances, but they dared not speak out.
Mensay's face also darkened, and just about to speak again, he suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis.
For a split second, he felt as if his heart was tightly clenched, almost making him unable to breathe.
At this moment, Judy jumped up suddenly, snatched the crown from Mensay's hand, and put it on her head calmly!
At this moment, the entire hall was silent.
Everyone stopped breathing.
But immediately, there were uncontrollable exclamations one after another.
The nobles no longer cared about etiquette, and there were many discussions on any occasion.
The emperor actually snatched the crown from the pope and crowned himself!
What does it mean
Is it the provocation of imperial power to theocracy? Or just a little girl's prank
For a while, the nobles had different thoughts.
You must know that in recent years, the prestige of the church has been greatly reduced.
Various scandals emerged one after another, and even the last pope, Gregory, died at the hands of a San Lorenzo.
And the Prince Harrison who killed the Pope was not tried—of course he did lose the throne.
But such a punishment still shows that the church lacks confidence.
Back then, the news that Ke Lin personally climbed to the top of the holy mountain and forced Mensay to release Harrison had spread throughout Yulong City.
But today, what Judy did was to tear off the last face of the church, throw it on the ground, and step on it a few times!
Facing such humiliation, Mensay still didn't dare to make any outrageous moves.
He just stood there, his face flushed like a pig's liver.
"Your Majesty..." Mensay's voice leaked from between his teeth, carrying endless coldness.
But Judy didn't realize it, she turned around on her own, met the gaze of her teacher Ke Lin, and smiled sweetly.
Colin returned a bright smile.
Then, he strode forward, came in front of Judy, pulled out the sword at his waist, half-kneeled on the ground, and swore loudly:
"Respected Lord of the Glorious Empire, I swear allegiance to you, from today to forever!"
Only then did the nobles wake up from a dream, and drew out their swords one after another, half kneeling on the ground, swearing allegiance to the new emperor.
The loud voice echoed in the prayer hall, like gold and iron clashing.
The priests in the hall looked at this scene with pale faces, but when they turned their expectant gazes to Pope Mensay, they saw that the Pope was just trembling in place and did not dare to make any expression at all.
At this moment, the pastors couldn't help but lament in their hearts—
The majesty of the church is probably completely gone forever.
"I, Judy San Lorenzo, accept your allegiance!"
The Queen's voice is still very young, but no one present dares to underestimate her.
Not only because she has enough courage, but also because she has a strong supporter!
The coronation ceremony is over.
Judy walked out first.
Outside the church, enthusiastic cheers sounded, and gradually spread throughout the entire Yulong City, and even the entire Glorious Empire.
Everyone knows that a brand new era has arrived.
