Miss Witch, it's time to clean up the entries
Chapter 186 This is a man-made monster
Chapter 186 This is a man-made monster ( words updated, please subscribe)
"How can this be?"
Arthur couldn't believe his eyes.
He counted Li En's entries repeatedly, "[Beautiful Boy], [Blacksmith's Apprentice], [Golden Hair], [Cartographer], [Illegitimate Child], [Excellent Lord], [Legion Leader], [Boiled with Passion], [Natural Card Player], [Silver Follower], [Explosive Physique]."
How come there aren't any heresy entries?
The new iteratively updated entry detector is no longer limited to priests or pastors who can see the entries, but everyone can see the entries through the projection above the entry detector.
"Yeah, that's strange. Why isn't there an entry for heretic? Oh, could it be that Lee En Moriah really isn't a heretic? Did I misunderstand him?"
Elizabeth mocked Arthur in an exaggerated tone.
Arthur gritted his teeth and snorted, "Just wait, Elizabeth, the entry test isn't over yet."
As the two of them were communicating, Fia was also nervously looking at the entry detector.
She had already prepared the argument to defend Li En that "vampires can coexist with humans", and had consulted most of the information and found some cases of vampires and humans coexisting, but she did not see the "vampire" entry that Li En had. Could it be that there was something wrong with the detector?
It was also the first time that the priests used this latest iteration of the product in public, and they were amazed at the images it could produce.
"It's truly the latest product developed by a wise man. Even from such a distance, I can clearly see its entry."
"This will minimize the loss of talent caused by misinterpretations of the terms, and the wise men will have made another contribution to the Holy Empire."
"Look, he is indeed a Silver Follower. Such a young Silver Follower actually became a secular lord. What a waste of talent."
"I don't think he needs to go back to the debt-ridden Green Shade Territory. It would be better for him to stay in the Vatican. I'm willing to be his teacher."
"He's old and still an ordinary priest. What qualifications do you have to accept him as a disciple? It's better to let him follow me."
"You are just a high priest. What qualifications do you have to criticize me?"
"Stop arguing. Only a bishop like me can bring him a bright future."
Priest Carl and his friends have begun to compete for the right to become Li En's teacher because of his outstanding talent.
However, the faces of most bishops and priests were still as cold as ice.
They were supporters of the Pope, and they knew that the Pope would not tolerate such a young Silver Follower to threaten his position.
Even if they do not support the Pope, they cannot tolerate wild geniuses like Li En. This is undoubtedly a slap in the face of the Holy See. Every year, they collect talented teenagers from all over the world and gather them in the Holy See Juvenile Institute to study. They spend a lot of resources and efforts to train them, but they only produce talents like Arthur and Elizabeth.
However, Li En was not just a humble illegitimate child. He also completed a journey that took others decades in a very short period of time and became a noble silver believer.
How can this bring peace of mind to them?
Catherine couldn't help but put her hands together and prayed silently, hoping that the entry detector would stop here.
Lor said in surprise, "Oh, Catherine, look, Li En is a natural poker player, an excellent lord, and a Silver Follower. He is indeed an outstanding man. Oh my god, he even has a physique that can produce a lot of troops."
Earl Hall was also observing these entries carefully. He always felt that although Li En became a Silver Believer at a young age, these entries were still much inferior to those of his daughter Dorothy.
"It seems that Li En Moriah has a talent for leading troops. Perhaps he can accompany you to the Azure Dragon Court."
Auglas spoke calmly, noting that he had also noticed the entry for "Explosive Physique." This entry was extremely rare, rarely appearing even in the Holy Empire's glorious war history. The last time Auglas had seen this entry was on a legendary general from the Stuart Kingdom, who tragically met his end at the hands of the Holy Empire.
"It is said that Green Shade Territory still has unpaid debts. He will not participate in any recruitment until the debts are paid off."
Lord Hall said.
"Oh, as the major shareholder of the Imperial Bank, you can completely forgive all his debts. A mere 3 million gold is just a drop in the bucket for you."
Auguras said with a smile that he hoped his attack on the Azure Dragon Court would go smoothly and that Li En seemed to be a good helper.
Earl Hall did not want to forgive Li En's debt. Although 3 million gold was nothing to him, if Li En could not even pay back this little money, he could forget about marrying his daughter Dorothy.
"Bankers are not philanthropists. Even if I agree, other shareholders may not agree, unless you are willing to take the initiative to pay to make up for him."
Earl Hall said in a calm tone.
Augustus raised his eyebrows. He needed money to fight the war, so how could he have the spare money to fill Li En's hole?
"Prime Minister, are you not going to repay this debt for your grandson?"
Auguras looked at Grand Duke Moria.
Grand Duke Moria looked at Augulas seriously and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. As long as Li En marries Catherine, he will be able to repay the debt. We don't need to worry about it."
So you don't plan to pay Li En back? You're such a bunch of old foxes.
Augulas's eyes fell on Lee En's fiancée, Katherine Rochelle Hernandez Mehliban Jackson.
“Presumably this beautiful lady is the orphan of the Jackson family?”
"Your Majesty, I am not alone. I have my brother Lor, and my brother Lor's four mistresses are all pregnant."
Catherine wanted everyone to know that the Jackson family would not be extinct in her generation, so the Jackson family's wealth would not belong to the Frank family.
Augustus nodded slightly. "This is really good news, but isn't Lor Mary's husband?"
Mary, who was suddenly called, felt extremely annoyed.
What is the relationship between her marriage to Lor? Doesn’t Augulas know?
"Any man is free to have his own mistress, but I think the king should inspect them all to prevent heretics like Grace from appearing again and bringing new disasters to the Holy Empire."
Mary gave Lor a mocking look, and Lor's body began to tremble uncontrollably.
If there weren't so many important people present, Lor might have wanted to flee the scene immediately and never have any more contact with Mary.
"In fact, my brother will be turning in divorce papers soon."
Catherine leaned forward, using her thin body to block the line of sight between Mary and Lore. She knew what her brother was afraid of.
Seeing this scene, Augustus couldn't help but recall his childhood. When he was very young, his sister Mary also protected him in this way.
Unfortunately, that happened a long time ago, almost as if it happened in the last century.
"Catherine, you are so brave. You are the first person who dares to talk about divorce with the Frank family."
It's the way to go.
"I believe this isn't a family matter, but simply a divorce between you and Brother Lor. After all, you've been separated for a long time, and you haven't fulfilled your duties as a wife."
Although Catherine looked very fragile and as if she could be blown away by a gust of wind, she was very imposing when facing Mary. She did not look like a person with a terminal illness at all. She was like a rising star with her own light.
Augulas suddenly felt that Li En Moria had good taste to have such a fiancée.
Grand Duke Moria also looked at Catherine with admiration. He originally did not know the character of this orphan of the Jackson family, but now he judged her character through a small incident.
She dares to love and hate, is brave and decisive, and has a sense of responsibility and accountability. If she is given time, she will become an extraordinary woman in the future.
Dorothy made the same judgment, thinking that although Catherine looked very soft, she was actually a very strong person inside, and she knew how to protect her family. Compared with her brother Lor, she was indeed more qualified to inherit the Blue Moon Territory.
Mary looked at Catherine coldly. This woman seemed to have become more brave and fearless because of her illness, but she was not in the mood to argue with Catherine. She was more concerned about Li En's entry.
"So your grandson married the orphan girl of the Jackson family because he was attracted by the Jackson family's wealth?"
Earl Hall began to play tricks on Grand Duke Moria. The two had disagreements on political ideas for a long time and disliked each other. Now, because of the matter of Li En's fiancée, the situation became even more intense.
But Grand Duke Moria did not know that his son Jack Moria had secretly reached an unfinished "agreement" with Earl Hall.
"Since it's all about money, why don't you find someone richer?"
Lord Hall scoffed.
Grand Duke Moria glanced at him calmly and said, "Family-arranged marriages are no longer popular these days. Li En and Catherine are in love freely. It has nothing to do with us. The two children have a good relationship, so I can't do anything about it. Even if Catherine becomes penniless now, I believe Li En will not abandon her."
Good relationship? If the relationship is so good, why are you messing with my daughter?
Earl Hall felt a prick of gratitude in his heart, and he subconsciously looked at Dorothy.
Fortunately, Dorothy didn't show any displeasure, and she didn't seem interested in this topic.
But Li En, who had excellent hearing, actually heard it clearly. He was really worried that Earl Hall would speak out his true feelings, and then Augulas would turn from an ally into his enemy.
He would then have the two most pitiful enemies in the world, the Pope and the King.
Thinking of this, Li En was already sweating profusely.
Fortunately, Dorothy and Catherine did not have any conflict, and Earl Hall did not mention Dorothy's engagement to himself.
The debate in the gallery came to an end with the appearance of Li En's last entry.
Li En’s last two entries are [Loss of Light] and [Father of Demons].
Both of these entries were obtained by being cursed by the evil god. If they were not displayed, it would seem too fake.
"Look, he is indeed a heretic! He is actually the father of demons!!!"
Arthur became excited.
But apart from him, most people showed compassionate expressions.
"This is the entry Li En gained after being cursed by the Eye of Doom. The price he paid was truly too high. He paid too much to save Yusofa's people."
"Yes, if my child is a demon, I would rather never have children."
"I guess Li En Moriah thinks so too."
"He also lost his sight forever."
Listening to the clergy's discussions, Arthur was confused.
This was completely different from what he thought.
"Wait, why don't you accuse him? He's a heretic."
Arthur said.
"Arthur, don't be impatient. The trial hasn't started yet."
The old priest reminded.
Arthur nodded, his confidence returning a little.
Auguras patted Grand Duke Moria on the shoulder and said, "Luckily, you have more than one grandson."
"You haven't comforted me at all."
Grand Duke Moria cares a lot about the entry "Father of Demons" because it means that Li En cannot have children of his own, at least not in the Holy Empire. If he really wants one, then he will become a heretic.
Auguras helped Li En, but not completely.
Earl Hall's face was not looking good either. He didn't want a demon grandson. He looked at his precious daughter Dorothy and thought about turning around and persuading her to give up.
Mary's pretty brows gradually wrinkled. She looked at Augustus's calm expression and suddenly realized something.
"You actually bribed the wise man to help you cheat!"
"Mary, what are you talking about? This is the Holy Tribunal of Justice, a wise man without emotions or desires. How could they be betrayed?"
Auglas raised his eyebrows slightly, his tone arrogant but with a hint of doubt, "But you, to have such thoughts, is itself a blasphemy against the gods."
The Wise Men are the smartest group of people in the empire, but when God bestows them with immense wisdom, he also deprives them of their emotions and worldly desires. They are equivalent to the scientists of the empire, who serve science and progress all their lives and are a group of people who basically cannot be bribed.
The reason why Auguras was able to persuade the old wise man to serve him was that this old wise man was one of the few emotional individuals in the group of wise men. He had a grandson who had just turned 18 years old. He inherited the family's good genes and was also a wise man and his successor. Auguras threatened the young man's life, forcing the old wise man to compromise.
Mary believed that her sixth sense would not be wrong. Augulas must have tampered with something, otherwise how could Li En have only so few entries?
The strength he displayed when facing the evil god alone was beyond the ability of a silver believer.
Although Li En explained that it was the angel who responded to him and gave him sudden strength, so that he could survive.
But being able to bear the power of angels, he must be at least a five-star Glory Knight, or a higher level, but this did not appear in the entry check.
Moreover, the most important heresy entry does not appear.
Just being the [Father of Demons] and [losing light] cannot allow Li En to drag the angel Soraya into the water and achieve their goal.
How did Augustus get the news in advance and bribe the wise man?
How did the wise man manage to make the term detector only display harmless terms?
Mary now had too many doubts in her mind, but she had no time to think about them. She was worried that she would lose this opportunity, the opportunity to completely break up Augustus and the Holy See.
As long as they could prove that there was something wrong with Li En, they could prove that there was something wrong with the angels. Proving there was something wrong with the angels would prove that Auglas was not pious enough to the God of Tiger, and even had the support of heretics. This would bring the relationship between Auglas and the Church to a freezing point.
Although Mary had the full support of the Pope, many priests in the Vatican still firmly believed that Augustus's position as emperor was unshakable. They were not supporters of Augustus, but supporters of the royal power. They would support whoever sat on the king's seat.
If this group of people can also completely break with Augustus, it will undoubtedly be the greatest victory for Mary.
Unfortunately, things did not go smoothly.
"The entry check has ended."
The wise man prepared to leave with the entry detector.
Li En also breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that the entry detector would suddenly expose all of his incredible entries.
Among the bigwigs present, the only one who could compete with him was probably the Pope himself.
Just when the young King Augulas, the Prime Minister of the Empire, Grand Duke Moria, Earl Hall, Dorothy, Catherine, and High Priest Fia all thought that this was the end, the Pope slowly spoke and said,
"Wise man, please wait a moment."
The old wise man raised his eyes slightly and looked at the Pope.
“Do you have concerns about testing?”
"I have no doubts about you. A wise man never lies. However, I'm always a bit reluctant to accept new things because they always have problems of one kind or another. Even the magic train broke down during its trial run. It took dozens of improvements before it achieved the stability it has today."
The Pope said slowly.
Li En's brows frowned slightly. He already knew what the Pope was going to do.
He wanted to test himself again using the old entry tester.
Perhaps it is not just an old entry detector, but one that has been specially processed by him.
"What do you want to do?"
The wise man asked.
"I want to use the most traditional method. Before the term detector appeared, we all used the Divine Eye to do this. Could the wise man please ask the Divine Eye to do the test for Lee En Moriah?"
The One with the Divine Eye is a prophet in the team of wise men.
He has the power to see some entries, and the entry detector was originally built based on his ability.
This old man has lived for 200 years and has absolute credibility.
But because he frequently used this extraordinary power 150 years ago, he was cursed.
Now he can only survive by relying on catheters and nutrient solution. Although he is still alive, he has difficulty moving. Even the strongest healing technique cannot heal his body.
The wise man looked at Augulas hesitantly, and a hint of displeasure appeared on Augulas' face.
"Sorry, it's not convenient for the Divine Eye to come to the scene."
"It's okay, I've already picked him up in advance."
The Pope nodded slightly, and two clergymen came in pushing a huge metal instrument.
The metal instrument connected many tubes to a huge test tube, which was filled with light green nutrient solution. An old man was soaking in the nutrient solution. The old man's skin was like tree bark, tightly wrapped around the bones. It seemed that all the fat layers had been lost, leaving only skin and bones. There were no less than twenty tubes connected to his back. He was the one with the divine eyes.
His current state is very much like that of an experimental subject in the hands of Frankenstein, and he doesn't look like a complete person at all.
When Li En saw the old man appear, his heart skipped a beat.
It seems this is Pope Randall's backup plan.
Mary's mouth curled up slightly. "Auguslas, this is someone you can never bribe."
Randall suspects that there is something wrong with Lee En, but he will not do anything at the trial because it is enough to let Lee En expose the real problem.
Randall has his own basis and reasons.
He is the man closest to the God Tiger in this world. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the one favored by God.
But he had never seen any angels. The rules of this world prevented angels from descending into reality. Just like the God of Tiger, they were on the other side of the distant starry sky.
The world can only be influenced through projection.
If an angel really appeared, it could only mean that it was a brand new angel, an angel not created by the God Tiger. Even if it was recognized by the God Tiger, its origin was still worth studying.
The fact that Li En was able to summon this angel through prayer is a big problem in itself.
The gods don't think so, because they never know the rules of the world. Only those who have reached Randall's level understand these secrets, which are concealed and cannot be shared.
Randall knew that the gift was not a gift from the God of Tiger, but a gift from the gods. He knew that the God of Tiger was not the omniscient and omnipotent as recorded in the scriptures, and that many of His powers had been taken away from the gods and fallen angels.
Randall knows God's true intention in creating witches. Witches do not exist to protect humans, but God wants to use them to take back these powers to a certain extent. Therefore, God will not create gods or angels again, otherwise the existence of witches will be meaningless.
Randall knew that no genius could reach the level of Silver Follower in half a year unless he borrowed the power of the evil god.
Therefore, he didn't need to do anything, he just needed to ask the most professional people to do professional things. Augustus didn't expect the Pope to invite the Divine Eye. Under normal circumstances, no one would doubt the old wise man.
Grand Duke Moria frowned, the accident he was most worried about happened.
Dorothy also grew inexplicably nervous. "The Divine Eye has not appeared in public for many years. No one doubts his judgment. He is the most accurate entry detector in the world. It is said that he has obtained the Eye of God."
Catherine clenched her hands. Her fluctuating emotions caused her already fragile body to react adversely. She began to cough violently and even coughed up blood.
Dorothy saw Catherine's weak appearance and realized that she seemed to have said something wrong. She silently cast a healing spell on Catherine, allowing Catherine's body to recover a little.
"Thank you."
Catherine looked at Dorothy gratefully.
She felt that even if she died, it would not be a bad thing for Li En to have a woman like Dorothy by his side.
Dorothy shook her head. "I should apologize. I said too much."
Lord Hall looked at Dorothy in surprise.
How come she gets along so well with her love rival? Has she forgotten about the engagement, or perhaps never considered agreeing to it?
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt relieved and felt that this was the best ending.
Even if the Divine Eye detects some incredible hidden entries in Li En, Dorothy should not be sad.
As the huge metal instrument approached, Li En saw the entry above the head of the Divine Eye Man clearly, which surprised him.
This man with the divine eye has suffered a lot. He was sent into a test tube at the age of 50, and 150 years have passed since then.
This would be endless torment and torture for any normal person.
The man with the divine eye also sensed Li En at the first moment. He struggled excitedly in the large test tube, and stretched out his hand to slap the glass wall of the tube.
Bang, bang, bang—
As the sound of glass continued to hit, the wise men and clergy became panicked.
"What happened to the Divine Eye? Why are you so excited?"
"He has never had any emotional ups and downs in the past 100 years. Why is he like this today?"
"Could it be that he was stimulated by something?"
Just as everyone was talking, the Pope struck the gavel again.
"Silence, comfort."
Two clergymen opened the tube cover of the metal instrument and injected a tranquilizer into it.
The Man with the Divine Eye stopped banging on the glass wall and fell silent.
Li En was frightened by this scene. The back of his clothes was completely soaked with sweat, the veins on his forehead were throbbing, and his heart and breathing were obviously accelerating.
He could feel that if he was exposed, he would become the next one with the Divine Eye.
The wise men are a group of emotionless scientific monsters. They will imprison themselves mercilessly to conduct various research and develop the latest entry detectors.
The metal instrument was pushed towards Li En.
"Respected Divine Eye, please tell us the complete entry for the young man before you."
The Pope spoke slowly in a magnetic voice.
The Man with Divine Eyes suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Li En excitedly.
Li En knew he was doomed.
This guy will definitely tell us about his ability to [Clear Entries]!
Because in this way he can be liberated, and I will become the new God's Eye, replacing him.
At this moment, Li En could feel that the thing in the test tube had completely lost its humanity. He was a real monster, a monster longing for freedom.
He felt unprecedented pressure, a pressure that even the evil god could not suppress.
This is a man-made monster.
The Man with Divine Eyes slowly opened his mouth, and just as he was about to utter the first syllable, his body suddenly twitched as if he had been electrocuted.
Then, the one with the Divine Eye died in front of everyone's eyes.
The two clergymen in charge frantically injected various drugs into the metal instruments, but to no avail.
The wise men were also panicked, and they hurried forward to check the equipment.
The archbishop and the priests all stood up and watched the scene nervously.
A gloomy expression appeared on Pope Randall's extremely handsome face, and his pair of inky pupils seemed able to swallow Li En at any time.
"Heresy, heresy, heresy, it was this heretic who killed the One with the Divine Eye!!!"
High Priest Arthur shouted regardless of the occasion.
"I can testify for my client that he did nothing, otherwise I would have been right next to him and would not have been unaware."
High Priest Fia responded calmly.
The bishops were not fools and would not believe Arthur's nonsense. They all stared at Li En, and Li En really did nothing.
"Dorothy. It's you."
Mary pointed in disbelief at Dorothy Hall, her former friend.
He is also the only friend that Mary acknowledges and has ever confided in.
Dorothy stood up and said seriously,
"Dorothy Hall is willing to accept the highest judgment of the Holy See."
At this moment, all eyes were focused on Dorothy.
This incomparably beautiful Imperial Rose, the Tower Witch, the daughter of Earl Hall, and the candidate for Director of the Guardian Bureau.
Why did she kill the God-Eye? !
Almost 99% of people have this question.
They were shocked by Dorothy's methods, which allowed her to use murderous magic under the noses of all the archbishops and even escape the eyes of the Pope, but they were also curious about Dorothy's purpose.
Is it for Lean Moriah?
What is their relationship?
Augustus thought Dorothy must have done this for him, and he believed that Dorothy, who was smart, knew the stakes involved.
He was both moved and worried.
But he swore that he would never let anything happen to Dorothy.
This is his future wife, the Empress of the Empire.
Earl Hall was very angry. He felt that he shouldn't have brought Dorothy here. Can the Supreme Trial be carried out just like that?
Grand Duke Moria was quite surprised. He didn't expect that the person who would come to the rescue would be Dorothy.
Catherine was also surprised, but also filled with gratitude and resentment.
At this time, she wished she could help Li En, but unfortunately she was too weak.
Luo Er felt that his brain was no longer enough. Why did the God Eyes die? When did Dorothy take action? He had no idea.
Elizabeth blinked, suspecting she was dreaming. She couldn't understand why Dorothy took action.
High Priest Arthur was completely stunned. The Divine Eye wasn't killed by Lee En, but by Dorothy Hall?! Why? Why on earth?
"Dorothy Hall, why are you doing this?"
Pope Randall asked, and this was the answer everyone wanted to know.
"I heard cries for help."
Dorothy said slowly,
"Mr. Giovanni Carson, the respected God's Eye, performed a word test on me when I was very young. He begged for help then, but I was too young to understand. It wasn't until I grew up that I understood the pain of losing freedom. I once swore that if I saw Mr. Giovanni Carson again, I would return his freedom to him, kill him, and set him free."
Everyone gasped when they heard Dorothy's narration.
They felt that Dorothy had told the truth, but they also felt that this truth should not be told, especially in such a public place.
Dorothy is essentially criticizing all the wise men, clergy, and even King Augustus.
It was this group of superiors who were unwilling to let go, causing Giovanni Carson to die of old age and suffer pain and torture.
"I am willing to take responsibility for my actions, I am willing to accept the Supreme Court's judgment, and I am willing to give up my candidacy for Director of the Guardian Bureau and for High Priest."
Dorothy said this sincerely, bowing slightly to the Pope.
The Pope could not tell that she was lying, nor could he guess her motives and reasons for lying.
Is it for Lean Moriah?
Rather than saying that Dorothy fell in love with Lee En and was willing to give up everything for him, it would be more accurate to say that Dorothy and Lee En reached some kind of deal.
At least what the Pope saw between Dorothy and Catherine was Catherine's strong love for Li En.
Li En also has the same feelings towards Catherine.
"Dorothy Hall, you will be tried, but not today. Sit down."
The Pope was very helpless. Not only did he fail to achieve his goal, but he also lost the empire's only divine eye holder.
Mary was so angry that if the occasion had not allowed it, she would have rushed forward to duel with Dorothy.
"Dorothy, if you wanted to kill him, why didn't you wait until he finished testing Leon Moriah? What is your relationship with Leon Moriah?"
Mary demanded.
Dorothy turned her head and looked at Mary with an apologetic look in her eyes.
"I'm sorry, Mary, although we used to be friends, but now Augustus is my friend and I must stand on his side."
Dorothy's words undoubtedly verified Augustus's guess.
Auguras was very satisfied and wanted to marry Dorothy immediately, but he couldn't do it. He had to get Sequence 7 before he had the courage to marry Dorothy.
He planned to proclaim himself emperor after the Harvest Festival, so he immediately proposed marriage to Earl Hall and made Dorothy his fiancée.
The attack on the Azure Dragon Court could also be postponed until after the Harvest Festival. This way, Earl Hall might be more attentive.
Mary gave Augustus a fierce look; she could sense her brother's pride.
"Your Holiness, if the trial does not continue, please allow me to rest for a moment."
Li En made an impatient sound.
The Pope could only continue the trial.
As Li En's defense priest, Fia took the initiative to step forward and stated the process and results of the previous secular trial.
"In summary, my client, Lee En Moriah, is not guilty."
"Does anyone object to this conclusion?"
The Pope looked at the old priest.
The old priest coughed. "I object. I cannot allow the Demon Father to remain in this world. Demons themselves are heretics. Even if the Demon Father has done nothing, he will cause the Holy Empire to fall into danger again."
"That's right. We can't allow a [Demon Father] to exist in this world. Every one of his children could be a demon. What a disaster that would bring to us."
Arthur immediately agreed.
More priests also chose to take sides and expressed their support for this view.
"The [Demon Father] was cursed during the battle against Grace, the vessel of the fallen angel Abel. Lean Moriah fought Grace to save Yusofa. If such a hero were to be sent to the gallows, the empire would lose its faith and become a nation of ignorant barbarians."
High Priest Fia said.
High Priest Karl also spoke slowly, "Yes, this is a Silver Follower. Do you really want to bury him?"
"Just make him sign an agreement that he will never have children. That's enough."
Bishop Ashton Graham spoke up.
Because there were too many bishops and priests, and Li En was blind and could only see the entries, he only noticed Archbishop Ashton Graham at this time.
There is an entry above the bishop's head that reads [Love Daughter as His Life], proving that what Lao Deng said was right. He can be won over as long as he is told how to rescue his daughter.
"I object. No one can guarantee that he won't have children unless he becomes Unsullied."
Archbishop Ethan Taylor said.
This bishop was also one of the three people mentioned by Old Jack. He actually advocated for the Immaculate Treatment for himself, which was really cruel.
Li En's sense of him plummeted.
"I cannot allow this to happen to my offspring."
Grand Duke Moria could no longer sit still, and even in the audience, he couldn't help but speak.
Ethan Taylor glanced at Grand Duke Moria indifferently and said, "No one can restrain him. This is the best way."
"Yes, how could a man from the Moria family not sow seeds everywhere?"
Arthur scoffed.
Grand Duke Moria remembered Arthur and planned to use secular power to completely bankrupt Arthur's secular half of the family.
Just when everyone was discussing whether to let Li En become Unsullied, they ignored the Pope's expression.
The Unsullied are the Pope's eternal pain, and he will not allow another Unsullied to exist in this world.
The Pope struck the gavel and said indifferently,
"Archbishop Ethan Taylor, you should not be so disrespectful to a man of noble birth."
"I'm sorry, Your Holiness. I was disrespectful."
Ethan Taylor admitted his mistake.
Only then did everyone end their discussion about the Unsullied and began to debate whether Li En was a heretic.
In the end, Fia defeated everyone with various legal clauses and completed her defense, but also made compromises.
Li En Moriah does not need to sign a fertility clause, but each of his children must be sent to the Vatican for testing. If they are found to be demons, they will be executed immediately.
Even Fia felt that this was reasonable, so she did not continue to defend herself.
Because everyone agrees that the devil can only bring disaster to the world.
Dorothy, the only one who can control demons, doesn't think so. She thinks that as long as the demons are given a limited space, they can also be turned into pets.
After the debate ended, the Pope said seriously,
"Now the bishops, high priests, and priests may vote."
Finally, we have arrived at the final voting stage.
Catherine nervously clasped her hands together again, and her body couldn't help but tremble.
Lor comforted her, "Catherine, don't worry, the outcome will definitely be good. High Priest Feia just left almost everyone speechless. They were all defeated by High Priest Feia. This was a perfect defense."
Catherine nodded heavily, wanting to believe that what Lor said was true.
"It's not that simple. The higher the status of a person, the harder it is to overcome their prejudice."
Grand Duke Moria said.
The voting began, with 10 bishops voting first, followed by 22 high priests and 88 priests.
120 votes. In the end, Li En received 66 guilty votes and 54 not guilty votes.
Fia slumped weakly in the chair. She had done her best.
But she still could not resist the factional power of the Holy See and the prejudice of the people.
However, the Pope did not win because he did not achieve his desired goal, and Augustus was not implicated in Li En's affairs.
This is a collective trial where both sides lose.
