The Exorcist Boy: The Book of Conviction

Chapter 55 The Cardinal
"Ss...s...s..."

The rabbi stammered and didn't utter a word for a long time. It wasn't until the two of them walked away that he managed to say a complete name.

"Snow... what's going on here?"

But the other party had already walked away, and the rabbi looked at the backs of the two with a shocked face, feeling that his brain was not enough.

With his barren imagination, he couldn't understand the current situation of the two of them at all.

"Rabbi...do you want roast chicken?"

Marshal Socalo thoughtfully put a large piece of chicken butt in front of him. It turned out that at some point, he had already walked to the table full of food.

"Thank you Marshal..."

The rabbi accepted the delicious chicken butt with a blank expression, but it tasted like chewing wax in his mouth.

How on earth did Snow climb up to such a beautiful big sister, and the other party seems to have such strength and status...

She looks like a rich woman! ! !
"Feeling curious?"

Marshal Zocalo looked at the backs of the two of them with interest while chewing the food. He could also see that the rabbi seemed to be so shocked that he couldn't turn the corner.

"Generalissimo Akchi is Snow's guardian. In name, the information is filled with the adoptive mother. Later, it seems to be changed to sister by the Generalissimo... Recently, I heard that she wrote two masters on it. Character.

But didn't Snow tell you? "

It took a few seconds for the rabbi to digest the information Marshal Zocalo said belatedly.

"Never. I only know that he lived in the religious group since he was a child... Ah! I don't know if Li Nali knows about it."

The rabbi couldn't help but drift to other places...

"Oh my god! The envious eyes of those men can't be concealed."

Snow complained with a black face. Although he stretched out his arm naturally, he still felt weak all over while being held by the other party.

"It's not mom! It's Anisan, please be careful with your words in the future, I'm not old at all."

While smiling all over her face, Sarah moved freely among the various nobles to say hello, while reminding him without changing her expression.

Almost like a perfect courtesan.

But for any conversation, Sarah just clicked to the end, she was not interested in this group of new nobles at all.

It's just because she represents the religious order, and she needs to give these guys some face.

The nobles of the upper Rhine have suffered heavy losses, and many local families can't even make up a single box.

As a result, many blood related people in other places were filled in as the new successors of the country's aristocratic class.

And Sarah, as the sole agent of the Black Order here, must also consider establishing necessary connections with these upper-level figures.

The relational society of the upper class is very complicated.

Looking at General Astor in the distance, who was chatting freely with a smile on his face, Snow couldn't help feeling sick to his stomach.

In his eyes, that decent hero is not a good thing.

If it weren't for what the other party did before, maybe things wouldn't be what they are now.

But even so, the pope sent a cardinal with the blessed crown prepared for the newly crowned king.

That's right, the crown of the Principality of the Rhine was actually made by the Pope this time, which means that Astor's future monarchy will always be subordinated to God's theocracy.

This guy's face is like an obedient dog.

Right now, the cardinal of the black order is also communicating with a circle of nobles, and words such as "God" and "blessing" can be vaguely discerned from his mouth.

Ordinary people or nobles will not know the details of the jihad, but this will not affect the mentality of the black church to actively win them over.

In the previous wars, Astor's army provided a lot of logistical support for the Black Order, as well as some neighboring countries, and the people of the Rhine who were invaded by the enemy were also rescued by "Hero Astor".

After learning that Rhine City was completely destroyed by the war, the calls for Mr. Astor to be crowned king never stopped.

As for other noble forces?
Come on, at least half of the nobles in power in the Rhineland were basically wiped out by the raging demons, and the rest either fled or chose to side with Astor.

Those who can still stand here are vested interests. The once genuine Rhine family has long since been ignored. Most people think that they have long since died in the previous disaster.

"Sorry to bother you, lady, may I be eligible to invite you to..."

"Sorry... my dance partner is petty."

Sarah tugged at Snow's arm very naturally, and then politely rejected him.

The man could only leave with a look of regret.

"I can't dance, and you used me as a shield just now."

Snow sighed, it turned out that Baima Zhang also had the day to become a tool man.

He knew that Sarah did it on purpose, because in his memory, although the other party had done a good job on the surface, she didn't seem to like too much contact with men.

That's why Snow appeared here today.

At the beginning, he was a fishy existence in the circle of rich women, but now he was pinned down by a woman.

"Of course you can dance... I taught you when I was nine years old, remind me quickly."

Sarah stepped on his toes dissatisfied, and then forcibly pulled him onto the dance floor.

"It's been almost ten years, how much can I remember?"

Snow accompanied her helplessly, and simply dealt with the two songs.

Fortunately, the spotlight did not shine on them because of Sarah.

Otherwise, he's going to make a fool of himself.

Just before, he accidentally stepped on the opponent several times in a row, and Sarah's face became obviously unhappy. Maybe she was already thinking about how to give him special training afterwards.

Just after the dance, there was loud applause around, but it wasn't aimed at them.

Our soon-to-be King, with a smile that Snow thought was extremely hypocritical, walked to the spotlight on the dance floor.

The other party still looked like an upright and tough soldier, but there was excitement and joy in his eyes that couldn't be concealed.

Afterwards he made an impassioned falsehood, and likewise made many promises to everyone's satisfaction.

For example, he will lead the country to become prosperous and strong again, relying more on the new aristocracy that supports him.

Also, he plans to build a church bigger than the royal palace in the new capital city, and accept the coronation of the bishop instead of the pope there.

The old cardinal with a wrinkled face couldn't even close his mouth.

In this operation, the benefits gained by their black sect behind the scenes are unimaginably huge, wealth is second, and influence is the biggest.

Most of the troops after the Rhine will become God's supporters.

Grand Duke Astor personally promised that he would let his troops cooperate with the screening of the Black Order, and then become members of the search force.

At the same time, he also fully promised that the religious order will re-establish a branch here, and use this as a starting point to radiate surrounding countries that have not yet been bathed in the light of God.

How could the Cardinal not be excited by such a bright prospect?
Because this is the first time that the Black Order has received the full support of the noble class of human society.

And as the driving force leading this process, he must also be able to get a lot of experience in the faction behind him.

Although the few red-clothed archbishops did not directly hold real power like the Grand Marshal, they were still indispensable to the struggle for power and profit within the central hall.

Maybe this will allow them to gain the attention of the gods, and then become the spokespersons appointed by the gods in the next selection of the Pope.

"Ah, ah, ah! Isn't this Generalissimo Akchi? Today, you are as brilliant as ever.

Oh!And Snow!In a flash, you are so big..."

Cardinal Aman Leitch walked up to greet the two with a smug smile on his face.

The four big characters "Spring Breeze Proud" were written on his face. Those who didn't know would think that he would be the one who would ascend the throne soon.

Seeing this nasty stinky face, Snow couldn't help clenching his fists. Of course he recognized this guy. When the synchronization rate was tested by Black Laska for the first time,
It was at the insistence of this Aman Leitch that he was forced to undergo electric shock stimulation in order to respond to the ability of [INNOCENCE].

Later, the weapon-related information was confirmed, and Snow was tormented enough, and when he went to Hebraska for the second time, Snow was picked up by Sarah.

Seeing this disgusting guy again now, he almost couldn't help but took out the [Devil Slayer Holy Flame], and put the gun barrel into this guy's mouth.

It was Sarah who pinched his arm, making him forcefully suppress his impulse.

"Bishop of Aman Rachel, please be safe."

On this occasion, no matter who she was facing, Sarah's behavior was very polite and decent, just like a real noble lady.

Although she is not very cold about this guy.

However, there is no direct superior-subordinate relationship between the marshal and the bishop's system, so there is basically no conflict of interest.

Unless the archbishop took action, they would not be able to interfere with the black order's exorcist combat system.

Although this group of guys has always had the bad habit of pointing fingers, at least with their group of old men, they are not qualified to affect the existence of the generalissimo level.

Aman Leitch said that the whole big central hall is just a clown, not a character.

This time he was able to leave the country like this, and it was all thanks to contacting Astor, so the archbishop behind him gave him a lot of support.

But on his face, it looked as if he took all the credit for this battle on his own head.

A clown character eager for quick success.

"Oh hehe... Generalissimo Amanche, the glory of God has begun to shine on this land again.

However, it is a little pity that such a large-scale force was not expected to be able to wipe out the Millennium Earl.

Fortunately, we found General Astor, oh no, a man of insight like His Majesty. "

Aman Leitch's accent is greasy, which is really annoying. It seems that this guy came here specially to give them eye drops.

Several archbishops and their families all had the idea of ​​extending their hands into the combat system of the exorcist.

But because of the most direct reason [INNOCENCE], they didn't get their wish.

However, this group of guys have found a different way, and often fiddle with some small means behind the scenes, such as alternative exorcist plans, artificial exorcist experiments, and even human body modification projects...

I don't know how many innocent people have been persecuted because of this kind of experiment, and even the direct blood relatives of many exorcists who died for the Black Order could not be avoided.

The several archbishop factions in the central hall have often presided over these unsuitable sons of men, and there are many internal interest disputes, and secret infighting often occurs.

If it weren't for the genius of Komui who served as the chief of the war room, barely sheltering most of the exorcists and not getting involved in such boring disputes, I'm afraid the current environment of the church would be even worse.

"Oh, by the way, although Rhine has a new presiding officer, the punishment imposed by the substitute god cannot be ignored.

After all, someone has to pay the price for the current situation, and Grand Duke Rhine is really, at least think about it for his descendants. "

Aman Leitch put on a hypocritical, heartbroken look, and suddenly, his eyes lit up.

And Snow frowned instinctively, he felt that the other party might be about to spill some bad water again.

"Ah! Marshal Akchi, I need to trouble you a lot with this matter. I heard that one of the Rhine's direct lineage seems to have escaped. I'm afraid I need to bother you to emphasize the majesty of the gods.

By the way, let me see, leave this matter to Mr. Snow!I heard that he seemed to have seen the descendant of the traitor as well. "

After finishing speaking, Aman Leitch turned and left with that annoying posture.

This time, even Sarah's face was a little more displeased,
Who does he think he is?A mere cardinal. Is this the Grand Marshal of the black order?
Snow, on the other hand, had a gloomy face, staring at the figure in the red robe, he felt that he was about to be unable to restrain the killing intent in his heart.

What did you just say?Was it a warning to him?
After thinking about it, Snow understood why Aman Rachel knew that he had met Princess Adele, and he only mentioned it to that Astor.

He didn't expect that the other party would sell him so quickly—on the premise that he knew that the Black Order was going to execute a divine trial on Adele.

The guy had put on a heartbroken look before, saying that he was willing to give up the inheritance and protect his niece.

"Hehehe, seeing Yue Buqun in another world..."

Looking at the proud figure on the stage, Snow gritted his teeth and squeezed out such a sentence.

After going through such a thing, Snow has no interest in this so-called party.

As for the so-called face, there is no need to waste it on that kind of guy, anyway, we will not have any intersections in the future.

Snow briefly greeted Sarah, and then left without looking back. This place made him feel sick.

After rushing back to his residence, he quickly packed his luggage and left tomorrow. This place is really annoying.

As for what the cardinal meant?
Heh, what kind of beast is that thing, it doesn't matter even if it treats this guy's words as a fart, Snow has no intention of listening to the other party's words.

Just as he was about to start, the outside door suddenly rang.

It was the rabbi, and his face looked a little weird.

"Well...Snow, I think you'd better come out and have a look, because my intuition tells me that this matter must have something to do with you."
