"I'm glad you hear from so many people, to be a good leader you have to listen to people and examine their lives.
"It really is you, the only person in the world who puts useless things first!"
There was a person standing behind Si Lang.
He is Archbishop Li Ding, and he is not very impressed with this professor.
Li Ding showed up with a group of paladins belonging to the legion. He was so angry that his cheeks were trembling, and his eyes were fixed on Silang, who didn't seem too good-looking.
"Arrest him immediately!"
Silang was terrified.
Veronica III was also taken aback, and rushed over to stop their actions.
"Stop it! Si Lang is not a bad person!"
Seeing this, the paladins had no choice but to let go of Silang temporarily.
Seeing this, Li Ding frowned.
He can't help it. Court paladins who guard the palace and the Pope cannot defy the Pope.
They obeyed Li Ding because he was known to be the pope's regent.
Cut, this useless doll, I have to replace her later.
Li Ding approached Veronica who was standing in front of Si Lang with her arms outstretched.
"My lord, do you still remember the assassin who sneaked into the palace three days ago?"
"Yes, the one with the knife in his hand."
The case has not been released to the public.
They were interrogating the assassins, finding out the truth, and then releasing the news to the public.
During their interrogation, a surprising truth was revealed.
"The pass for the assassin to enter the palace was forged by Si Lang. In addition, the poison and dagger he used were all hidden in imported books and brought into the palace.
Surprised by the facts, Veronica turned to Siron.
"Is that true, Siran?"
"It's true, holy."
Silang admitted in a low voice, but he revealed another truth.
"But the assassin's target has never been the pope, but Jigong who has been by your side all the time.
"This bastard!" Li Ding was furious.
Whether Li Ding yelled or tried to scream, Si Lang said everything he wanted to do.
"Li Ding! Your sin of violating the will of Buddha Ancestor covered the eyes and ears of the apostles and the pope, and it would not be short to die a hundred times! How long do you think your influence on her will last?"
"What, what's that saying?"
Li Ding, who was flushed with anger, looked back at the paladins.
"What are you people doing? Why don't you arrest him?"
"But, but..."
Just when the paladins were hesitating, Silang stepped forward.
Veronica was surprised by his behavior and tried to stop him.
But Si Lang shook his head: "It's just killing people, it's still a violation of the national law and disturbing the palace, I don't want to use some excuse to evade responsibility.
Li Ding did not detain him, but was furious when he saw his actions, which shocked the paladins near Si Lang.
"Cut off his neck immediately!"
"No! Don't kill him!"
Facing Veronica's direct objection, Li Ding shouted: "Holy! This is a job that must be handled by me..."
"Didn't I tell you not to kill him?"
Li Ding could no longer speak.
The pope who had just spoken had a strong tone of anger. He had never seen an innocent figure make such a move.
This is obviously a murder gag, they all underestimated the Pope's intelligence.
The clarity and intensity in her eyes showed that she was full of dignity as the leader of the country.
How could she be like this all of a sudden?
"This, damn it..."
Seeing her like that, Li Ding's face became serious.
If there is a quarrel with the Pope inside, he will not be able to please him.
If the Pope disagreed with even a modicum of truth in the regent's rumors, the hyenas would go and take the regent's place.
"Ah, I see, we won't kill him."
"That's good." Veronica replied.
The eventual attack on the Imperial Library has subsided.
Veronica III, who was alone, sat down and sighed.
"I never thought of my grandfather, no, the Regent, never..."
Li Ding won't be angry with her in the future, will he?
Veronica was terrified, fidgeting as if she had done something wrong.
But on the other hand, she kept telling herself.
-You did a great job, you did what had to be done.
This was the voice that had spoken to her the other day.
Veronica felt a little relieved about this.
Although she didn't realize it, a little confidence rose in her heart.
A few days later, the frontier war intensified.
The closer the capital, the greater the influence of the Marian faction, but they knew that conflict with the imperial army would be tantamount to suicide.
"But once we get into the Conrad area, that changes."
Lin Qing has reason to believe this.
Duke Reed was in Conrad for a long time and most of the villagers and residents believed in the "Marlon Parr" led by the Archbishop/Duke
In addition, the walls of Eisenberg, the gateway city of Álvira, are notable for their strength and sprawl.
Not even the best artillery can make fortified walls.
Stop it all! Today, we will set up camp here!"
The envoy ran from the front to the back and told the soldiers what the commander said.
The 4th Squadron settled down and set up camp.
After dinner at night, white smoke rose everywhere.
"That sounds, a little simple?"
Speaking of dinner, the knights under him spoke.
They marched for about ten days without seeing the enemy.
"Are they going to be terrified that such a large army could come at them at any moment?"
Hearing what they said, Lin Qing shook his head and said: "No, keep moving forward tomorrow, cross Conrad's territory, maybe you can see the enemy."
"Really?"
"So, don't drink before late at night."
Hearing Lin Qing's order, the knights looked very disappointed.
A group of mercenaries appeared and talked to them: "Fallen nobles, you are having dinner, but is porridge and bread enough to replenish your strength?"
"If it were me, I'd catch a horse and cook it."
"quack!"
They belong to the Garlic Mercenary Corps, quite powerful in the (Hello King) Holy Arthurian Empire.
Most of them are nomads from the northern meadows, the number is about 500, and there is also a huge mercenary group, about 30 expert-level mercenaries.
However, unlike other mercenaries, they did not receive any special treatment because there were no titans around them.
But they found a mercenary with the titan.
After hearing the rumors, they knew that he was a fallen nobleman wandering in their land.
Of course, garlic mercenaries are insatiable for titans.
"Hey, you don't have to eat like a beggar and sell your titan.
A nasty mercenary with a pimple on his forehead walked up while speaking.
His name is Gavel, and he is the captain of the Garlic Mercenary Group.
There is a reason why he insists on being a mercenary despite his outstanding abilities.
Since he is a nomad, he can do nothing but use a sword, his mind is full of money, and his allegiance is only money. .
