Chapter 884: Chapter 202 _4

"Helen is a simple girl without any excessive schemes. Considering my relationship with her, there’s no chance His Majesty the King’s efforts to win her over will succeed," Richard added sinisterly, "They analyzed the wrong target to win over."

"Hehe . . . . . . ," the Pope and Shaman Wei An laughed heartily together.

"Although the title of Grand Priest of Cambridge is honorary, its future prestige is immeasurable. The military-controlled cadre of War Shamans has already subtly become a core force. They can gather large armies to help the shamans acquire better magical pets, but the temples do not have this capability, so we must never let the military’s influence expand into the Cambridge Sacrificial College," Brut said as he picked up a glass of water and clinked glasses with Richard.

"Excuse my curiosity, but once I have my own sleeping quarters, how will my ceremonial knight, Saintess, and attendant priests be arranged? Do I have the autonomy to arrange them?" Richard asked as he held his water glass.

"The temple is a place of worship for the God of War, and your sleeping quarters are the God of War’s Summer Palace, one being a place for the God of War’s office work and the other his home," the Red Priest laughed heartily. "The Northeast Province Witherspoon Temple will arrange everything for you, but you may also make arrangements yourself."

"So, I was originally the God of War’s housekeeper?" Richard burst out laughing: "A housekeeper it is then. By the way, I plan to appoint a civilian Sharoman Shaman as my attendant priest, I wonder if that’s possible?"

"That . . . . . . isn’t exactly impossible . . . . . . ," the Pope frowned, "But you know, the Liger Clan is born with congenitally atrophied hands, which isn’t much of an issue, but for years, in order to break away from their civilian shaman status, the Liger Sharoman have had a tense relationship with the temples. Because of their presence, the Florendo Grand Temple in the Southeast Province has been continually looked down upon in Wolf Territory, which is why generation after generation of High Priests have explicitly forbidden the Altar Sacrifical Ceremony to enlighten Ligers, recognizing them as clergy by appointing them, isn’t that a bit inappropriate?"

"Your Majesty, if you set this precedent, how will other temples handle their status? Recognizing them as clergy? Then what about the legit priests of the Florendo Grand Temple in the Southeast Province? The racial war songs aren’t solely possessed by the Liger Sharoman; the Smey Clan that has the ’Sky Banning Song’ must be dealt with as well," Shaman Wei An added.

"Recognizing all their statuses is obviously not feasible, I’m just appointing one, so it shouldn’t be a problem, right? But then again, it’s such a waste for a smart Liger to refuse shamanic enlightenment, isn’t it?" Richard asked.

"Appointing a Liger Sharoman as a priest isn’t much of an issue, but the problem is that setting this example will lead to many incessant demands from Liger Sharoman in the future. If you really decide this, you must withstand the pressure going forward," the Red Priest said. "The main reason we do not enlighten Liger Sharoman is that their presence has severely impacted the Wolf military’s dependence on the Altar Sacrifical Ceremony, which directly leads to Elder Quentin of Redkenap not always paying heed to our temples! Having the Wolf possess a significant force in the temples wouldn’t necessarily be a good thing."

"True, the Wolf Clan’s unity and exclusivity are well-known," Richard nodded, "Now that you mention it, I understand."

"The Rhine Clan has already given me enough headaches, and moreover, there are many who covertly rely on the Rhine, not to mention Lord Mourinho, the High Priest. Our temple currently has three major forces already; wouldn’t adding one more throw the world into chaos?" the Red Priest chuckled.

"Lord Mourinho’s power is indeed formidable," Richard mischievously winked at the Pope: "Brut, aren’t you worried that Lord Mourinho might grow too influential? The city near my territory, Caiyu City, also has a numerous shaman community; Medusa indeed produces an abundance of shamans!"

"The title of High Priest can be contested through power, but not the title of Red Priest," Brut replied with a faint smile, a double entendre, "As the overlord of the Bode Clan, it’s normal for Lord Mourinho to have a bit more power, but for Taige and Rhine, it’s hardly worth mentioning. The balancing acts of the senate have always centered around the Liger and Tiger Clans and would never favor the Bode. After the Heigar Battle, the Bode Clan existed in name only, and for Lord Mourinho, although temples encourage every shaman to respect and worship him, that’s as far as it goes. Previously, Milu was a deterrent to Mourinho standing out alone, but now that Milu has retired due to illness, with the emergence of Your Majesty Richard and Helen, you have become new counterbalances in this balance scale. Despite being smart, Lord Mourinho truly lacks talent in discerning people; I firmly believe that you can absolutely play the role that Milu once did, possibly even outperforming him."

You don’t even know that the Fire Phoenix Shaman owns twin magical pets, so what are you flaunting! Richard sneered subtly.

"Regarding the matter of His Royal Highness, you need not worry, Your Majesty Richard. We will initiate impeachment in the senate later; after all, this opera is not about to end so easily; furthermore, since the Holy Temple Knights are about to be established, due to the metallurgical support provided by the Dorott Duchy Shalba family, these thousand pieces of armor and standard weaponry, we would like to allocate the funds directly to you to oversee this preparatory work," White Tiger Priest Bog Camp said, nodding to Richard.
