"Oh, right, I have two announcements to make."

Fred gestured for everyone to be quiet: "The first thing is that we need to relocate some people from Golden Creek City. Hmm, what's that saying again... right, population relocation!"

"..."

The banquet hall fell silent. People looked at each other, all seemingly unwilling.

"Lord City Lord, Jinxi City is our home. Why are you driving us away?"

"Where will we live after we leave Jinxi City?"

I'm not leaving.

"I'm not leaving either!"

"I absolutely will not leave!"

"Hey, don't get excited, everyone, don't get excited."

Fred shouted, "Why would I kick you out for no reason? There's a reason!"

"Everyone knows that Simon, that demon, is capable of massacring entire cities, right?"

When the word "demon" was mentioned, fear appeared on everyone's faces.

“By sacrificing blood to nine cities, the gates of purgatory will open.”

"When the demon army invades, this world will be finished."

"Oh my god!"

"That's terrifying, that's terrifying."

"May the goddess protect you!"

"Don't worry, the Divine Envoy will stop the demon's evil plan. Just leave everything to the Divine Envoy," Fred said easily.

"Yes."

"Lord Sasha is here."

"..."

"Lord City Lord, the demon's evil plan is not yet complete. Will our Golden Creek City be targeted again?"

"Yes, that's why we need to relocate the population!"

Fred explained, "Demons don't just choose any city for their blood sacrifices; they only choose large cities with a long history and a large population."

"I see"

"If we move a group of people out, the demons won't target Golden Creek City again."

After understanding the significance of the relocation, no one expressed strong opposition anymore.

"I'm glad everyone understands. Okay, then I'll talk about the second thing."

Fred took a deep breath: "I am now a devout follower of the goddess, and I will go with Lady Sasha when she returns to the church."

"On the day I leave, I will relinquish my position as the city lord of Jinxi City."

Upon hearing this, many people showed expressions of reluctance.

Fred was not a cruel man, and in this world, that alone is enough to make people support him.

"Lord of the City, have you made your decision?"

"Yes, please don't stop me. I want to dedicate the rest of my life to the great goddess."

"Lord City Lord, you truly are the most devout believer in Jinxi City! However..."

"After you leave, who will become our city lord?"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the several high-ranking officials present changed slightly.

They quickly stepped forward so that Fred would notice them.

"The new city lord was jointly elected by several gentlemen from the neutral zone. He will take office on the day I leave."

"Hey, the city lord of our Jinxi City can't be decided by outsiders!"

Someone immediately objected: "Jinxi City is full of talented people, why should we let an outsider lead us?"

“Lord City Lord, I think it would be safest for you to personally appoint a successor.”

"Yes, yes, outsiders don't understand the situation, how can he lead the entire Jinxi City?"

Several high-ranking officials protested, but Fred remained steadfast.

"This has already been decided, so please don't say anything more."

"But......"

"If I really had to choose, I wouldn't choose any of you."

"..."

Several high-ranking officials, their faces ashen, stormed out of the banquet hall.

Upon seeing this, Fred sneered inwardly.

"It's because of you scoundrels that the water tank isn't full, and you still want me to pass the throne to you?"

'Hmph, I'm going to give you all a piece of my mind before I leave!'

Volume 1: Chapter 58 Honorary Bishop

"Lady Sasha, welcome back in triumph!"

The Pope knelt on one knee: "You defeated the demons and saved Golden Creek City. I will record this great achievement in the annals of the Church!"

"What a grand welcome ceremony, Zorn, get up."

The little girl helped the Pope up, and then waved to the soldiers around her: "I, the little angel Sasha, have returned after saving Golden Creek City!"

"Lady Sasha!"

"Lady Sasha!"

"Lady Sasha!"

A deafening cheer erupted, and Fred and his guards felt their legs go weak.

'This is incredible! Even His Holiness the Pope has to kneel in greeting! Sasha's status in the Church is simply beyond imagination!'

'And even the soldiers are so fanatical...'

Fred grinned foolishly; he and the angel were very close comrades-in-arms.

The higher her status in the Church of Dawn, the better her life will be in the future!

“Zorn, the man behind me is Lord Fred.”

"Former city lord, former city lord."

Fred quickly said, "I have already stepped down. After this incident, I feel that the church is my true home."

With a beaming smile, Zorn, the valiant city lord who fought alongside the angels against the demons, resolutely abandoned his position as city lord and chose to join the church after feeling the goddess's aura.

Once this gets out, who knows how big a sensation it will cause.

“Your Excellency Fred, I deeply admire your devotion to the goddess.”

"Are you free today? As the Pope, I would love to have a pleasant conversation with a devout believer like you."

"I have free time, I have so much free time!"

..........................................................

"Lady Sasha, welcome back!"

Daisy circled the little girl a few times, looking her over from left to right, as if she were worried that Sasha might be missing an arm or a leg.

"I'm home, Daisy. What are you looking at?"

"I'm checking to see if Lady Sasha is injured anywhere. I heard you had a big fight with that Simon, and I'm really worried..."

"Hahaha, the demon was sent fleeing with a single punch from me, there's nothing to worry about."

After a moment of smug satisfaction, the little girl said with great reluctance, "Unfortunately, he still managed to get away in the end."

"Lady Sasha, please tell me what happened in Golden Creek City!"

Daisy looked on expectantly: "I've heard several versions already, and I don't know which one is true."

"Well, let's start from when we arrived in Jinxi City..."

After telling Daisy everything that had happened to her these past few days, Sasha felt a sense of relief.

'I've been under so much pressure; it's been so long since I've had a casual chat with someone like this.'

"Lady Sasha, you are truly, truly amazing!"

"Hahaha"

Just as the little girl was smiling and about to say something, a knock suddenly sounded on the door.

"Lady Sasha, it's me, Fred."

"Oh? Please come in."

As soon as Fred entered the room, the little girl stood up in surprise.

"What are you dressed like...?"

"Lady Sasha, I am now an honorary bishop of the Church of Dawn."

The man chuckled and said, "Oh, gold really does shine wherever it is."

Congratulations!

The little girl quickly understood what Zorn meant; Fred had been used as a model by the church.

'Perhaps it's not just that; although Fred is no longer the city lord, his connections in the neutral zone remain.'

'Using Fred as a springboard, the church could completely...'
