Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 547 Write an invitation letter
Lori was disdainful of the Rain Goddess's overconfidence, but was very curious about why she had such confidence.

She estimated that it would be difficult for her to completely possess the power of ice. The reason she was able to take away one-tenth of it was because of the mention of cold rain in her early years.

This is all thanks to the high tower staff.

The guy's final fate is actually understandable. Even if the Dark Night Goddess hadn't tormented him, he would probably have to thank the world... You just understand~ You have to talk about rain and ice and snow, but they are all water.

Don’t the gods know?

She also knew about rain, but why didn't she dare to add ice and snow to her own scope of duties?

The concept of priesthood in the fantasy world has never been such simple physical knowledge. Since she did not obtain that part of the law when she was born into this world, if she wants to obtain it again, it will take a long time to slowly infect it into her own aura.

How could a 'weak' and 'unambitious' goddess who could only rely on the protection of the Goddess of Darkness do such a thing openly?

She understood it in her heart, and found many ways to grasp all the concepts related to water.

However, a bastard appeared and dragged her into the broad daylight for no apparent reason!
The expansion of divine duties that the Lord of the Earth could easily accept was almost the same as poison to her with such a low level of divine power.

The concept of law hit her, and she was trembling with fear, and it was difficult for her to maintain her own existence.

In the end, she could only hope that the believers on earth would pray at the same time to stabilize her personality and soul, and then her back-up plan on earth would be completely exposed.

The Goddess of Darkness gave up her complete protection and began to make some plans, probably because she saw her meticulous mind and resolute means.

After finally stabilizing things, the world changed drastically again, and the Rain Goddess had to make a choice between choosing herself and giving up a large number of her believers... That time, in order to save her life, she didn't have time to screen her believers. After all, at the beginning, she wanted to do something secretly, so she needed believers who were "decisive and ruthless" and dared to do anything.

This kind of believers are the best consumables. As long as they are used well, they can be burned out before affecting the image of the god itself, and become fuel for her to become powerful.

The Rain Goddess originally thought of resolving the problem slowly later, but unfortunately, fate did not give her this opportunity.

She crossed all the bottom lines set by the world's will. Although she did not die on the spot because the matter was not that serious, she was still facing a life-threatening crisis.

In the end, he could only plot against the White Dragon King to give himself a chance to reincarnate.

How could the Rain Goddess not hate Gaota and his little follower?
She could have taken it slow and at her own pace.

However, it was impossible for Lowry to sympathize with her.

She was responsible for everything. She didn't trust anyone from the beginning and relied on her own little tricks to slowly do things, which resulted in her being caught off guard.

The most important thing is, if she had sworn to heaven and earth that she would always be just the Rain Goddess when she encountered that emergency, then she would not have to worry about the surging divine power and faith.

There’s nothing wrong with wanting all of these, but having them all is a bit boring.

It's impossible that after the goddess of darkness finds out that her child is not really so weak and helpless, so innocent, and so selfless, she will still help her to fulfill her desires, right?

It would be good enough if you could ignore the past deceptions and continue to treat her as a friend you can still socialize with.

Lori didn't think there was anything wrong with the attitude of the Goddess of Darkness towards the Goddess of Rain... It was good enough that the friendship between gods could be as calculated as hers.

Few people who claim to cherish relationships can make friends without any demands.

If someone doesn't seem to have any material needs, then he or she must be demanding more emotionally.

What the Dark Night Goddess wanted at the beginning was love. Although that was a bit too much to ask for, there were really no other problems.

As a result, she found out that she had given it to the wrong person, and then quickly switched to a matter of interest. This goddess is already well-informed, and her emotional switching speed is really fast.

If you change someone else, you have to slap her a few times first.

In the end, it was the Rain Goddess who felt that the Dark Night Goddess had let her down... Well... If the Storm Lord hadn't said how annoying the Dark Night Goddess's tests of the beings she favored were, Lori would have thought that the Dark Night Goddess was the unlucky one.

But the past had nothing to do with outsiders like them. What Lori wanted to know now was, with only the dilapidated Rain Priesthood left and a covetous Goddess of Darkness beside her, where did she get the confidence to believe that she could return to the throne of God and even start paving the way for a 'beautiful' future?
But it is obvious that even in the eyes of the Lord of Storms, it is possible for the Rain Goddess to return to her old place.

Otherwise he wouldn't have escaped directly.

In the eyes of these gods, even if they are enemies, as long as the other party is still a god, there will be opportunities for cooperation.

Therefore, the Lord of Storms would not directly deny Lowry's question without being sure about it.

Lori shook his head slightly, becoming curious about the situation in his neighbor's house, which was obviously becoming more complicated.

Can Lord and Countess Hamilton find the only stable wind zone in this vortex?
Celestia had no intention of considering how Lord and Countess Hamilton would respond. She didn't even have time to think about how the enemy did these things.

After returning to the small manor where she was staying temporarily, she immediately cleaned up and bathed, changed into long clothes, let her long hair down, knelt in front of the small statue she carried with her, and prayed madly according to her Ring of Storm.

After Celestia sensed that her information had been "uploaded" to the right place, she finally let out a sigh of relief.

Then he suddenly became filled with endless anger, and uttered a vicious voice word by word: "Watson!"

She knew very well that since the other party dared to say such words in front of her, he must have mentioned it to Priest Schroeder a long time ago.

No matter who Watson wanted to plot against, or whether the existence behind him wanted to deal with the Lord of Storms, when Watson said this, he put Celestia and High Priest Schroeder in a position of a life-and-death battle.

The McMillan and Schroeder families have indeed been enemies for generations.

But there is a difference between enemies.

They can be regarded as sworn enemies who never wish well to each other. It would be even better if they could bring misfortune to each other because of their actions.

Celestia was also clear about what happened to her that year. It was definitely not the Schroeder family who took the initiative to do anything to her.

But after discovering that they had one of McMillan's most outstanding descendants, the Schroeder family had no intention of letting her go.

Of course, this little greed also got them into trouble.

Even if High Priest Schroeder could regain his position as High Priest after this adventure, his power would certainly be greatly reduced.

The power he had given up twenty years ago was now in the hands of McMillan. This deputy high priest was even a powerful man who had worked in the Northern Temple of the Storm Church for more than fifty years.

It is because of the glory of the past thousands of years that the Schroeder family has been able to survive until now and still have a glimmer of hope.

High Priest Schroeder had no choice but to come to the North to accept the purge of his enemies. It was indeed because their family could no longer resist... They had originally bet that the old and frail Deputy High Priest McMillan would die early enough.

However, after learning what happened, Patriarch McMillan did not hesitate to spend all his money to buy the Fruit of Life from the Church of the Earth and gave it to the deputy priest.

Although the McMillan family has no one who can inherit his authority as the chief priest, as long as he holds on long enough, then at least the young people will be able to reach the level of being the bishop of a noble family.

McMillan, with Storm Knights appearing in every generation, it is natural that he is a little lacking in other aspects, but it is not to the point that no one can use him for two generations in a row, it is just that his talent is not that strong.

In addition, if the family has sufficient resources, he can basically become a pastor.

As long as the priest can hold on for a long time, he will eventually become a bishop... All members of the McMillan family will hold themselves to the standards of a Storm Knight, and they will basically be recognized by the gods.

Especially for the territorial bishop, once his identity is confirmed, unless he is caught with some serious crime, no matter how powerful the prelate is, he cannot deprive the legitimate bishop of his due rights.

The chief priest is indeed very important, with a high position of power and influence, even to the point where he can influence the Storm Lord Temple thousands of miles away. But he can never be more important than the future of the Storm Church.

Any attempt to forcibly and arbitrarily accuse the bishop of a crime, or even to expel the "innocent bishop" without guilt, will undermine the foundation of the Storm Church.

Before Archpriest Schroeder got himself into trouble, almost all the members of the McMillan family were pinned down in the capital and their own territories.

What’s the point of becoming a bishop in the Capital Cathedral?

With the celebrant present, who would listen to the bishop?

Archdeacon McMillan had to endure thirty years in the position of bishop before he was promoted to the position with great difficulty.

He even nearly lost his position as bishop of the capital, and reluctantly let a thirty-year-old priest in the family take over the responsibility.

Unexpectedly, one day, they, the McMillan, would even have the opportunity to obtain the right to preach.

Celestia also knew that the main temple would not allow the McMillan family to grow bigger. Even if the Schroeder family had no power to resist, they would definitely support a new main priest family. But so what?

They don't care about the apparent status of their family, affordability is the most important thing.

Even if one day the McMillan family loses in this power struggle, they will definitely be able to accumulate enough resources to allow the family to prosper again for thousands of years.

This is an investment that is sure to make money, and Celestia truly feels that her family leader is extremely wise.

However, there is also a prerequisite, that is... the Schroeder family will not fight with them.

The other party’s defeat should not be due to their family. At least, the reason the other party knows has nothing to do with them.

Baron Watson, this is going to completely destroy McMillan's best chance!

Celestia was extremely angry, but she couldn't show any disrespect in front of the statue, so she kept pacing around the room.

Fortunately, according to the procedure, the letters submitted by her portable statue must be given to the incarnation hanging around in Qingfeng Territory... Handling them nearby has always been the style of the Lord of Storms.

Celestia received a reply soon: Got it, don't worry.

She sat down on the ground suddenly and let out a long breath: It seems that Priest Schroeder is not crazy yet.

No matter what the other party was thinking, as long as he reported such an important matter honestly, the ones who would be unlucky in the end, no, it should be said that the ones who would bear the responsibility would only be Archpriest Schroeder and Duke Schroeder.

The family inheritance will not be affected.

Including the disciples and descendants spread across the major territories in the north, they can continue to do their work.

In the end, the struggle between the two families will still be carried out within the bottom line, rather than a life-and-death struggle.

very nice.

As for why Baron Watson knew nothing about this, Celestia had no interest in knowing.

With Schroeder's cunningness, Watson's pretended calmness and composure were too obvious and he could never be his opponent.

Celestia's heart slightly moved: That old guy, shouldn't he be...

No, it's impossible.

The Schroeder family's selfish nature cannot be eradicated.

One of the important reasons why the McMillan family has always been at a disadvantage over the years is that they care too much about each other.

If one's ascension to the top is likely to lead to the failure or even misfortune of several family members, most people would hesitate.

But in this kind of competition, there is no room for hesitation.
The most important opportunities are fleeting. If you don’t seize them immediately, you will just have to watch others snatch them away.

Even if one person from the Schroeder family wins and everyone else loses, and they, the McMillan, lose the biggest loss but hold all the small gains, the final result will inevitably be their defeat.

But McMillan could never change their indecisive behavior, just like the Schroeder family who always watched their brothers and sisters lose everything.

Celestia slowly walked out of the prayer room, turned her head to look at the statue, and belatedly realized the key point: the Lord of Storms had known what had happened for a long time, but had remained silent, and it was obvious that he had other plans.

It was a secret that Officiant Schroeder reported the matter secretly.

Then... won't she have to fight a tacit battle with the high priest afterwards?

How to fight... She is really a little weak.

In a head-on battle, Celestia is not afraid of anyone. For the Storm Knight, heroic sacrifice is the best way to return.

But to play tricks on a guy like Archpriest Schroeder, and to have the back and forth be completely invisible to outsiders... She really is not good at it.

Celestia walked to the window and cast her eyes towards Hamilton Castle.

Although her interest in Almes was mixed with some complicated emotions, her enthusiasm for him was by no means false.

Everything else is just added value. Having a child who looks more like Almes would be the perfect outcome.

All the ambitions and desires shown by Celestia were to cover up her most fundamental need: to borrow a seed.

But that Almes was too smart and too perceptive... If Celestia didn't use all that messy tricks to distract him, the end result would definitely be a total loss.

It would be fine if she lost the principal and interest, but if she really gave birth to a child who inherited McMillan's blood and Almes's mind, and he took the child back to Hamilton... wouldn't she lose so much money that she would vomit blood?

This will put you in a lot of debt!

The McMillan ancestors are watching her in the Kingdom of Storm God!

Celestia really didn't want to die without having the face to do so one day.

So, now she can only be distant and seem to be there and not there.

It looks like he is flirting with flowers and plants, but in fact, he is worried that the flower he likes is too poisonous, so he only dares to land on the grass nearby and take a peek.

Celestia didn't think that Almes could defeat Priest Schroeder in a life-and-death struggle.

This is not a question of qualifications.

Almes is several decades younger than Priest Schroeder!
Of course, Celestia doesn't think that having more experience will necessarily make one stronger.

However, when it comes to harming others, people with more experience definitely have a more obvious advantage.

Besides, Almes is a person with a bottom line. Although he is a jerk, he is not a bad person.

Neither good nor bad, sometimes it is also a defect.

However, if Almes plays a game of competition with Archpriest Schroeder, he will not necessarily lose.

Celestia shook hands, walked into her study, and began to write furiously... Of course, Almes didn't care about her life or death, but as her biological father, mother, and sister, he should at least consider it, right?

In the current situation, the Earl and Countess Hamilton, who rely on the military style to do things, will definitely not be able to withstand it even if there is a Bowen with some means.

Just think about the fate of the former Earl of the North, Montes.

Once you are treated as a chess piece by the gods, and become a discarded piece by accident... you will not be placed neatly beside the chessboard, or even thrown into the trash can. Instead, you will be completely destroyed.

Celestia and High Priest Schroeder are actually in equally danger.

She did not think she was exaggerating. After all, as long as she did not make any mistakes, the incarnation of the Lord of Storms nearby could guarantee that she would return to the kingdom of God after her death.

But the Hamilton family didn't have this opportunity.

Once you die, you are really dead.

However, the couple seemed to think that this matter had nothing to do with them and just wanted to watch the fun!

This is also the biggest weakness of the military nobles who have been protected by the White Dragon King for too long.

They knew how terrifying the gods were and they respected them, but their fear of them was not enough.

They are so honest now because the lesson taught by Count Montes was too profound, otherwise, they might have taken the initiative to attack!
It’s really nice to be able to just stay in the castle and watch the fun like now.

However, the ones causing trouble now are not the local gods who must abide by the rules of this world!
Even the Lord of Ice and the Lord of the Tower act within a certain bottom line... They have always targeted the nobles, or in other words, the professional class.

Outsiders are different.

Celestia looked at the written letter in her hand and smiled slightly... She had done a great thing.
