Chapter 897: Chapter 335 Tilling in the Light, Serving the Darkness

Saint Patrick Cathedral.

The ruined cathedral had none of the divine solemnity of its past; if it had only been destroyed by a battle, that wouldn’t be too bad, the foundation was still there. Mona and Umr’s battle was very restrained, rebuilding and renovating wouldn’t cost much.

The one who ruined the atmosphere was Wayne, holding a Golden Rule Bible, toiling in the light, serving the darkness, more of a capitalist than a Devil.

Inside the cathedral, a procession of clergy formed a long line, listening to the roaring at the front, all trembling and wearing bitter expressions.

It was over, the Archbishop was the Devil’s pawn, the Envoy from the Papal State had come to inspect, and they were slandered all over, today’s affair was hard to settle.

A few white-bearded old men stood at the very front, all of Gold Mage cultivation, and the strongest among them, a Legendary Mage, was the captain of the Guardian Knights.

"Great..."

"Great what?"

"I mean, Your Excellency."

"Excellency what?"

"The Envoy from the Papal State, Your Excellency."

"Haha, you still acknowledge that I’m the Envoy. How did you curse me just now, eh? Why are you quiet now? Every one of you full of foul language, still clergy, you’ve all shamed the Holy See."

Wayne had recently succeeded in cleansing the Emperor’s side and had quite the knack for playing the leader.

A leader doesn’t necessarily need to be loud, or tall and imposing, or even particularly handsome; that’s just what the citizens of the Star City wishfully think.

The key to leadership lies in the tone: three parts assertiveness, four parts insidiousness, and ninety-three parts capriciousness.

In conclusion, the Envoy of the Papal State is the boss, and you bunch of country officials, whatever you are called, you are, and you have to accept it even if you don’t want to.

Wayne looked coldly at the few white-bearded old men in front of him, feeling as if he had given them too much face, slightly tilted his chin up, and stuck his nose out: "Hodgson is the Envy Demon King’s pawn, in The Void he has gathered a bunch of fallen Evil Gods, wanting to sacrifice the entire Republic of Ireland, to open Hell Gate and release the evil Demon King..."

"As the upper echelon of Saint Patrick Cathedral, the Holy See has poured in so many resources to cultivate you, and look what happened, all of you became accomplices of the Devil, how could His Holiness the Pope face Heavenly Father in Heaven with such as you!"

"Your Excellency, you can’t just carelessly accuse people, Hodgson has always been autocratic, handled big and small matters alone, we didn’t know..."

"Shut up! Still trying to argue your case!"

Wayne kicked what was under his feet, half-cooked, and rebuked: "Hodgson said it, you are all accomplices, everyone in Saint Patrick Cathedral except for me, not a single good person."

Everyone quivered, one white-bearded old man said: "Your Excellency, Hodgson knows he’s on a dead-end path, that’s why he’s dragging us down with him, you must see that we are innocent."

"Hehe, now you recognize my foresight, what took you so long!"

Wayne cursed, training the group until they dared not lift their heads. After easing up, he lamented resentfully: "Not a single one in Saint Patrick Cathedral realized Hodgson was the Devil’s pawn, you have let down His Holiness the Pope, and even more so the Father in Heaven."

"Your Excellency, we are willing to accept punishment, just please put in a good word for us in front of His Holiness the Pope."

"Good word for what, tell His Holiness the Pope how incompetent you are?"

"Your Excellency, may I have a word with you in private..."

"What a spectacle, dragging and pulling, just say whatever you have in front of everyone, I’ll tell you, I can’t tolerate bribery in my sight, don’t think you can buy me with money and beauty, there’s no way."

Wayne, strong and young, was soon dragged into a corner by the few white-bearded old men.

"I see now, you few are wronged!"

"So it is, indeed there are reasons for this!"

"Ssssss, no wonder I received an anonymous tip-off, the investigation went smoothly all the way, turns out you were helping in secret."

"Loyalty! His Holiness the Pope will surely reward you."

The effect of leading by example is profound, with a few white-bearded old men setting the precedent, the followers one after another followed suit, offering up their meager family assets, proving their devout faith, their deep hatred and detestation for the Devil, unwavering loyalty to the Papal State.

Soon, everyone became meritorious officials, they all had contributed to the plan to eliminate the Devil.

Of course, there were a few exceptions, who thought liking little boys meant the Envoy from the Papal State liked little boys too, they were taken down on the spot and beaten half to death, becoming accomplices of Hodgson.

The evidence was conclusive, no room for overturning the judgment!

"Poli, remember you owe me the deeds to three mansions, don’t forget to bring them tomorrow."

"As it should be, as it should be."

"Bart, forget about your daughter, she, after all, is a married woman. But your granddaughter is at the age of growth, remember to bring her tomorrow, I’ll help her with a check-up."

"You are too generous."

"And Taylor, your family even has a shipyard, it’s not apparent, you are a Noble."

"Fallen on hard times, I’ve been wanting to transfer the shipyard, I’ve never found the right buyer, Your Excellency helped me greatly."

"Hahahahaha————"xN

Inside the cathedral, there was harmony and joy, the Envoy from the Papal State and the country officials got along famously, the officials too moved to move.

Two emotionless faces propped the door of the cathedral.

Mona and Umr.

(눈_눈)x2

It’s not right to say emotionless, they just don’t know what expression to use at this time.

Umr’s eyes twitched slightly, unable to understand how the Holy See had come to this, she whispered: "Archangel, is this really okay?"

"Don’t worry, he’s very excellent, possesses a special physique that attracts Devils, this is very important to me."
