Don't call me evil god

Chapter 434: Fatherly love and filial piety are the traditional arts of this place

Everyone unanimously put the blame on Griffin.

Henry Genevar's attitude was serious.

The reports he received were not from just one or two people, but from almost the entire branch, who unanimously reported Griffin, the commander of the Crusaders.

The reasons are similar.

"First, when the Eternal Night disaster arrived, Legion Commander Griffin failed to execute effectively and failed to lead the team to control the situation in the first place, which led to the chaos."

"Secondly, he failed to complete the operational process as required and contacted the senior clergy of the Church of Seeking Knowledge in private, leaking important intelligence, which ultimately caused the Crusaders to miss the best opportunity to resolve the Eternal Night disaster."

The second sentence is the biggest killer.

"Private contact and leak of secrets."

This is an extremely serious accusation.

A lot of information held by the Cult of the Glowing God is often directly related to monsters, cultists, evil gods, and the void, with the degree of danger increasing in sequence.

Of course, this information cannot be disclosed to irrelevant persons outside the church at will!
Relevant personnel should also sign a corresponding confidentiality agreement when following the prescribed procedures.

Otherwise - what if the secret is leaked and cultists or something else take the opportunity to cause trouble?
Henry Tran had colluded with the priests below him.

It’s no wonder that they can find opportunities to criticize Griffin on this point.

Because it was the people from the Church of Knowledge who rushed into the Countess's castle to end the eternal night and eliminate the disaster!

So where did they get the information?
How can they be sure that the key to solving this disaster lies in the Countess of Ceylon?

Theoretically speaking, this information should only be known by the Cult of the Light.

Henry Tran couldn't guess the real reason, and he didn't try to guess.

He was just making a reasonable guess.

Someone inside the Glowing God Cult leaked the secret!

If one wants to leak secrets, then one must have had experience of contact with people from the Church of Seeking Knowledge.

Filter by this condition.

Griffin immediately stood out!

He was the only guy who had ever had contact experience!
The shit pot fell on Griffin's head with a bang.

……

The next day, afternoon.

Glowing Church.

A small hall with a very quiet environment.

Supervisory priest Jeniva stood behind the pulpit where the priest usually preached. There was a slightly higher platform there, which allowed him to have a panoramic view of the situation in the hall.

The legion commander, who came to the small hall as a defendant, sat on a bench in the first row.

He kept his head down, so his facial expression couldn't be seen clearly.

Several priests sat in the back rows with Henry Tran.

In a sense, they are the plaintiffs.

Further back, there are some non-church members who came here as believers of the God of Light.

These people were invited randomly.

They are the protagonists of this investigation meeting.

Janiva will randomly ask them questions, all of which are related to Griffin.

Analyze and judge the situation from multiple dimensions using information from the perspective of non-church personnel.

Jenniwa took out a copper pocket watch that emitted a dim light from his arms, flicked his finger, opened the cover, and checked the time.

"On the hour."

"Next, ask questions."

"Please carefully consider your next words and actions. If there are any acts of deception, concealment, slander, framing, diversion, or substitution of concepts, the Glorious God Cult will pursue the corresponding joint liability."

Janiva swept his sharp eyes around the small hall and warned coldly. Everyone who was passed by his eyes lowered their heads involuntarily.

……

The first person to be questioned was a man dressed as an ordinary citizen.

"Please describe what you know about Captain Griffin."

The other party stood up hurriedly, a little nervous, and stammered:
"Captain of the Legion... Your Excellency, I am a little afraid of him. Aren't the Crusaders fighting against evil gods? I have nothing to do with evil gods!"

Jeneva's face was expressionless, making it impossible to tell what he was really thinking.

The next questioner changed:
"While the Ceylon region was under the eternal night, what did you witness or hear about Captain Griffin? Regardless of whether it was true or not."

The man who was being questioned slowly stood up.

Most of his hair was white, and there were many age wrinkles on his face. He looked to be in his fifties or sixties.

He looked much more calm.

His face was full of assurance:

"I've seen it with my own eyes!"

"Captain Griffin was dissatisfied with Bishop Henry Tran's orders. He had his own ideas. He led the Crusaders out of Ceylon City and secretly met with the believers of the Church of Knowledge!"

Janewa was still as expressionless as an iceberg: "Specific time, location, who else saw it besides you?"

The man reminisced.

"It was probably the third day of the Eternal Night outbreak, at night, late at night."

"At that time... I was fulfilling my duty as a viscount of the kingdom, destroying lone monsters wandering outside the city of Ceylon, and I happened to see the commander of the Griffin Army leaving the city."

"The location is not far east of Ceylon City."

"At that time and place, there were basically no other people outside the city, so no one else should know about this."

The man who was speaking was none other than himself.

It was Petunia's father, Viscount Tostin, one of the most famous manor nobles in Ceylon!

After hearing the accusation, Griffin kept his head down and did not move, without any reaction.

Janewa pursed her lips: "Can you take responsibility for what you said?"

Viscount Tostin nodded immediately and raised his right hand: "Of course! In the name of the God of Light, I can swear!"

Jenniva's two grey eyes, sunken in their eye sockets, stared at Viscount Tostin steadily: "One last time, can you confirm that you can take responsibility for what you said?"

Viscount Tostin gritted his teeth secretly.

"I can!"

"it is good."

Janiva first gestured for the other party to sit down.

Viscount Tostin heaved a sigh of relief as if he had been pardoned, and quickly sat down.

However, Jeniva's next move made Viscount Tostin suddenly nervous!

"Relevant witnesses, please come in."

"Squeak-"

The door of the church hall was slowly pushed open.

When Viscount Tostin heard the word "relevant witness", he wanted to turn around to look at the person who came, but when he took a closer look, he felt unwell!
"?!"

Because Viscount Tostin was very familiar with the appearance of the two young men and women who came in!

One of them is the Countess's daughter, Nicole Ceylan!
The 14-year-old third-level wizard has completely inherited her mother's beauty. Although they have not met many times, Viscount Tostin still has a deep memory of her.

Not to mention the other one who walked into the room with Nicole:
Pete Twain Tustin!

The moment Viscount Tostin saw Petwin appear, his brain froze!
"what's the situation?!"

Why did his son appear with the daughter of the Countess of Ceylon?
