Chapter 543 The Archbishop's Ambition

Chapter 543 The Archbishop's Ambition
Looking at the Knight of Light returning in anger, Archbishop Charles was a little scared.

Could it be that he saw those gold, silver and jewelry and was ready to argue with me about doctrines and morals?

However, what he didn't expect was that the Knight Commander actually came in front of him and knelt on one knee.

"Your Excellency the Archbishop, I am a subordinate who has not done my job well. Please punish me, Your Excellency the Archbishop!"

"Punishment? For incompetence?"

Archbishop Charles was a little confused, especially when he looked at the submissive Knight Commander, he was very surprised.

The Knights of Light are all stubborn people who stick to dogma, and Charles knows very well that he is not the same kind of person as them.

He also knew that the other party disliked him very much.

The evidence is that the Knights of Light serve as guards and are responsible for protecting his safety.

But apart from matters other than duty, he was basically unwilling to have any communication with him and his followers.

Even the campsites were separated by makeshift fences that the knights disdained.

The Captain of the Knights of Light had never performed any courtesy to him as a subordinate, except for bowing and kneeling when he accepted the mission at the Pope's Palace that day.

When there is really no other way, the believers' etiquette such as the Salutation of Light is used as a substitute.

The main point is, although I work for you, I am not the same kind of person as you.

Charles has been in the Church of Light for many years, so he is naturally very clear about the temperaments of these knights.

He would not bother to argue with these people. There was no point in comparing. Besides, taking it too seriously would often backfire.

But I didn't expect that today, the Knight Commander would actually kneel on one knee and perform the knight's salute?

This is a treatment only given to the Pope!

Archbishop Charles was flattered by this honor.

"Oh my, what's going on? Hurry up and get up!"

Archbishop Charles reached out and helped the Knight Commander up. "Knight Commander Terry, why do we have to be so polite to each other? It's not necessary!"

The Knight Commander sighed and said, "Archbishop, this time it is indeed my fault for not doing my job well.

We underestimated those damn heretics and were ambushed at the beginning, suffering a great loss!

We have returned empty-handed this time, which is really shameful and disappointing to you, my Lord!"

Charles couldn't stop smiling. If the treasure of a caravan could be used in exchange for reconciliation between himself and the Knights of Light, he would absolutely be happy to do so.

It can even be said that it is a big profit!
With the support of the Knight of Light, even if this huge violent group does not object.

Then Archbishop Charles may even have a chance to attack the throne of the Pope!

Unexpectedly, this time the loss of the goods unexpectedly opened up a new situation! Congratulations!

"Knight Commander Terry, don't worry too much. They are just some heretics. It doesn't matter!"

Unexpectedly, Knight Commander Terry waved his hand and said, "No! This is such a great shame, I must wash it away with the blood of heretics!
Your Excellency the Archbishop, I have a request that you make. Please help me!"

A favor delivered to your door?

Archbishop Charles was delighted in his heart, but on the surface he pretended to be embarrassed.

"This... I don't know what it is? If I can help, I will definitely not refuse!"

Knight Commander Terry smiled quietly, then said with a look of grief and indignation: "Please ask the Archbishop to draft a decree of light, so that the Knights of Light and the Guards of Light from the nearby territories can gather here, and then follow me to fight against heresy!
This time, we must completely eradicate them to deter heretics! Promote the majesty of our Church of Light!"

Archbishop Charles took a deep breath, his expression somewhat worried. "Mobilizing all the Knights of Light and Guards of Light in the surrounding area is no small feat!

Terry, you are making me make a mistake! "

Knight Commander Terry knelt on one knee again: "Archbishop, please help me!"

Archbishop Charles quickly helped Knight Commander Terry up with both hands and said, "Oh my, what are you doing?
Others may not be able to do it, but since you, the Knight Commander, have asked for it, I will help you no matter what!

What's more, this is a battle to eliminate heresy, it is reasonable and legal!"

"It is so... touching that the Archbishop supports me!"

The archbishop patted the knight commander on the shoulder and said, "Alas! We all support each other!"

At this point, the archbishop's eyes rolled and he came up with an idea, ready to magnify this favor even more.

"How about this, Knight Commander Terry? I will write a few more letters and have them delivered to several nearby lords and nobles, asking them to lend you their private soldiers as well."

The Knight Commander was stunned for a moment: "Private soldiers, this...isn't it too big of a scene?"

“It has to be big!”

Archbishop Charles lowered his voice and said, "It's a big deal. When the time comes, we'll reward people for their contributions... They've done a lot."

"But... the other side only has a small hill. I'm afraid..."

"Terry, you are confused. If you don't tell me and I don't tell you, who knows the details?"

Terry's eyes flashed, but he pretended to be suddenly enlightened.

"I see, Archbishop, you are really thoughtful!

In that case, I would like to thank the Archbishop first!"

"Hahaha, no need, we are all family!"

Archbishop Charles no longer cares about gold, silver and jewelry. He is now in high spirits and begins to enjoy a bright future.

Little did he know that at this moment the Knight Commander was looking at him with a teasing look, thinking silently in his mind.

"It's just as the Lord God's Messenger said, this fat-headed guy is cooperating so actively.

In this way, all the Knights of Light and Guards of Light around will be able to return to the ranks of Light and together defend the Holy Mountain and the Lord Messenger of God!
The private soldiers of other lords and nobles...

I didn’t expect there would be such a pleasant surprise!
If we bring these private soldiers with us, will it affect the conversion plan of the Lord God's Messenger?
No, definitely not!

God's Messenger represents the truth and the true light!
Even ordinary soldiers cannot refuse the personal preaching of the Lord of God! When the time comes, they will definitely choose to convert to the Holy Mountain of Light together!"

Captain Terry of Light trembled with excitement at the thought that he would lead so many people to convert to the Holy Mountain of Light.

"Your Excellency the Bishop, please go ahead and take care of my military affairs."

"Oh, oh, oh! All right, all right! You go first! I'll write the transfer order and letter of introduction, and I'll just have my servant deliver them to you."

Charles waved and watched the Knight Commander leave. He couldn't help but take a deep breath and exhale slowly.

"That's great! This is a blessing in disguise... Oops! I forgot to ask why my butler, Old Bob, didn't come back with us?
Oh, could it be that he unfortunately died during the attack on the mountain?

What a pity! His management and financial management abilities are among the best among the people around me.

However, if we can use this opportunity to reconcile with the Knights of Light camp, all the losses will be worth it!
I seemed to see the Pope’s crown waving at me!

Ha ha ha ha……"
