Chapter 648: 222. It may be a bit ugly, but there shouldn’t be a big problem, right? _2

"Don’t tell me that you, as sincere witch hunters, are less proficient in the scriptures of the Nature Church than ordinary people?

If so, then you are undoubtedly heretics."

"They are not the same!"

Natalie glared fiercely at the unrestrained Murphy, wanting to scold him for his irreverent tone towards the Divine Spirit, but on second thought, he was a vampire, which indeed put him at a "racial disadvantage".

So, the chairman of the Adventurer Guild changed her tone to that of an explanation, saying:

"In the system of the old religion, witch hunters are warriors, and although we also study scriptures and divine teachings, our understanding of the classics is far less than that of preachers such as Madam Jules. We are the sword of Avalon, but its proverbs are spread by church members who are good at this."

"But I’m not asking you to debate with priests of the Winter Wolves Religion, am I?"

Murphy spread his hands and said with utmost sincerity:

"I just need you to use religious rituals to stabilize my people and soothe their poor and desiring hearts. I don’t care how good the priests you send are. To be blunt, as long as they can teach my people to recite the scriptures and hold a Nature worship every Sunday at the church, I’ll be satisfied."

"You!"

Natalie was truly angry this time, she stood up, pounding on the table and scolded:

"It’s bad enough that you don’t believe in gods, but your behavior of openly using sacred faith as a tool of rule is inexcusable! If this were before, that sentence alone would be enough for the Grey Knight to arrest you and tie you to the stake.

Murphy!

I know you’re a faithless vampire, but you can’t disrespect Divine Spirits this way..."

"But isn’t faith just a tool of the rulers?"

Murphy was not angry.

He just calmly retorted:

"After going through ten grueling years due to your steadfast faith, you still remain so naive? Everything the Old Church has gone through still hasn’t awakened you to the importance of religious authority versus royal power... You don’t really think the Avalon Church was banned by the Golden Flower Kingdom just because of the rebellion you started, do you?

Let me tell you, Natalie, on a personal level, I am willing to respect your faith and protect your right to choose your faith, but I am a lord!

My rule always comes before my faith, and you are now a part of this system of rule.

You must also understand this!

If you insist on prioritizing your faith over the safety of my territories, then the newly born Avalon Church may soon suffer all that the Old Church has gone through.

You’re resentful, aren’t you?

That’s fine.

Talk to your Divine Spirit right now."

Murphy waved his hand and said:

"Tell your god about my blasphemous words, see if Avalon would command you to wield the holy blade and punish me, the blasphemer, or if it would command you to obey my orders.

I believe you are the shepherds of God among people.

Your duty is to enlarge God’s flock, not to create chaos and strife among the flock artificially, don’t even think about abandoning the entire pasture and setting the flock free in the dangerous wilderness.

You are the most incompetent shepherds I have ever seen.

Go now.

Go to the little chapel and ask your Divine Spirit.

But I want an answer by tomorrow morning, Natalie, whether you like it or not, you have to give me an answer tomorrow morning!

If you don’t want to fulfill your duty as the nominal leader of the Avalon Church right now, don’t blame me for bypassing you and recruiting new Natural Priests among my warriors, but, to be honest, I can’t imagine how those guys would interpret the teachings of Avalon."

"You want more than just that."

Natalie took a deep breath, stood up, looked at Murphy, and said:

"You want to meddle in the restructuring of our church, I should have thought of that. You want to use your method to form a new Avalon Church to serve your regime. Dear God, you are the most dangerous vampire I’ve ever met.

How dare you put your hands on God’s plate?"

"What if I told you, I’ve spoken to your Avalon God, would you be surprised?"

Murphy stood up and poured himself a glass of wine with a drop of fresh blood. Without turning his head, he said softly:

"Your Divine Spirit has acquiesced to my actions, your Divine Spirit knows better than you what its followers need. It’s not me who is wrong, Natalie, it’s time for you to change your mindset.

Transylvania will be different, and you need to learn to embrace change. That will be the most wonderful thing I bring to this world. You can see it with your own eyes. That’s what your father hopes I can teach you.

He hopes you can be an outstanding leader!

Regrettably, you are still satisfied with being an outstanding warrior. Ah, your Silver Trial is about to be completed, isn’t it? However, I think what you need right now is not strength."

Don’t hesitate to talk to my Crimson Regent more often, keep learning history from Professor Malcolm and glean the wisdom you need from it.

If you want to become the most outstanding Shepherd of Avalon, there’s still much you need to learn in the art of management."

Murphy turned around, raised the wine in his hand to Natalie, who gave a frosty nod in response, turned around without saying a word, and left.

"She has grown up a lot."

Cui Si’s voice came from the shadows in the corner of the office, with a touch of mockery, saying:
