In just over a month, more than a month ago, the Holy See civil war, and the news of four Paladins surrounding Gray spread throughout the continent. Finally, the Holy See, the Holy See, who had been on the downhill, seemed to have finally regained some face. Before they could recover, Paladin Gray had made a comeback, defeated, and captured the four Paladins of the Holy See.

It’s not just a matter of face, the Paladin, but the most core combat power of the Holy See, and the last means to deter all countries...

If Gray's previous actions were already a damaging blow to the Holy See, then this time it will undoubtedly be a fatal blow.

"What does he want to do? He imprisoned four paladins. Do he want to judge? He himself is just a paladin. What qualifications are there to judge the other four paladins!"

"It's definitely not possible to follow the rules, but... I don't think he plans to tell us the rules now."

"We violated the rules first."

"What are you talking about! Are you talking for him?"

"No, we are just stating the facts. No one of us wants this situation to happen, but that's the facts and we have to admit it."

"Maybe we should ask the Holy Spirit for arbitration."

"There will be no arbitration. The Holy Spirit has replied that we will not support either party with Paladin Gray. When we attacked Paladin Gray, the Holy Spirit did not interfere. Now we will definitely not interfere."

"What should I do? Oh my god, we shouldn't be enemies of him from the beginning. Where did his power come from? Why can he still defeat the other four Paladins when his guardian angel is captured?"

"If the Holy Spirit cannot intervene in arbitration, then we can only negotiate with him. But how should we negotiate with him, or, in other words, what conditions can we take for him to accept?"

Someone whispered: "He is challenging our voice to the divine...this should be what he wants. He wants to redefine, what we have defined and judged."

The panic spread rapidly among the Cardinals of the Cardinals, and everyone understood what the captive of the four paladins meant to the Holy See. It was like a building, with four pillars knocked off, and there was a risk of collapse at any time. If Gray was really challenging the Cardinals' voice for the sacred, then he was undoubtedly saying to everyone: "I want this house, I am the owner of this house."

"Crazy! A Paladin, does he want the Pope's position?"

Amidst the turmoil, the elderly pope sat quietly, silently, without saying a word.

The Celtics continent, which has a history of tens of thousands of years, is always unchanged, with the same mountains, rivers, lakes and seas. People on the mainland always rise and fall, come and go. Just like the Holy See, which represents the sacred faith of the mainland for ten thousand years, has never fallen since it reached this position. However, in fact, there are always countless changes, new dilemmas, new problems, and new crises. And this crisis is obviously "the most serious in history."

It's ridiculous to say that since Gray became a Paladin, he has been creating crises for the Holy See, and every crisis has been setting a new record. If the Cardinals had dared to say: "The Holy See has experienced countless crises, but every crisis will pass, and only the Holy See is eternal."

However, what about this time? Does anyone dare to say that?

Gray is completing something hell dreams of doing but never can be accomplished. The balance of victory is already tilting towards him.

...

Just when the Holy See was panic and helpless, what happened on the Iroy Peninsula had spread rapidly across the continent. The Cardinal thought that the world was in an uproar as before. However, there was no uproar as before, and replaced by a terrible calm. Everyone just listened and thought. There was no complaint, no reprimand, and there was no one who took the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, and no one took the opportunity to bargain with the church.

"I think no one in this world can defeat him. He can capture four paladins, and he is also a paladin. No one in this world can defeat him or threaten him. The Pope is not okay. I am now considering whether our priest tax should be handed over to the Holy See or to the Paladin Gray. In fact, I think it should be handed over to the Paladin Gray. He is the sacred supreme person on the continent, and the Pope is just a poor person who sends all his force out but loses miserably." A duke from the eastern continent said to his bishop.

If it were the past, if such words were said, the Duke would probably be blacklisted by the Holy See. The Holy See would join forces with other nobles to put pressure on him to abdicate. However, now, almost all nobles are saying this, at least thinking this way. The Holy See would not have blacklisted all nobles, so that no one can unite with him. The Holy See itself, even the most important force, has been lost.

At the same time, Gray is also undergoing some change.

"This letter will be sent to Baicheng for me and to Duke Beshiel. I will give it to her in person and tell her that everything is fine and I will return to Baicheng soon. Rest her. Also, this letter was written by Shelley to Earl Grugru. It must be handed to him in person. If you don't know where Earl Grugru lives, ask Duke Beshiel and she will tell you. And these letters are written to the kings of various countries and ask them to support food. You must deliver them all to me. After the delivery, you will make an appointment to help me get their reply. I have wasted too much time here. The famine in the Lion King City will break out at any time, and we cannot visit them one by one. Ask them for their forgiveness."

"I... heard it right?" Julian was a little confused when he looked at the thick stack of letters handed over by Gray: "You let us deliver the letter for you?"

"Angelics will deliver letters faster."

"We are not carrier pigeons, we are guardian angels."

"I know. The guardian angels of the Holy See, your paladins are being kept in prison by me. They have to eat every day without making any contribution. I have never heard of people who have made such serious mistakes, but still enjoy the welfare. And when I urgently need food, as accomplices, you can work to serve them and atone for themselves in exchange for their three meals a day. Or, I will turn them into one meal a day. In this way, I can save some food, although not much."

After gritting his teeth, Julian had to take the stack of letters.

...

"From today, I will remove you from your posts as Bishop Fidels and Bishop Bert. You may recommend your successors, but you must agree with me. In addition, your own qualifications as clergy have been deprived, and you must make your own living. Of course, you may also leave the Iroy Peninsula and go to the Holy See if they are willing to accept you."

"Why..." Feders and Bert's two bishops were stunned.

"You want to know why? Because I don't think you are suitable for clergy anymore, and your behavior is far from the divine faith. If you continue to preach, it will make people feel divine, that's it. This seems to me more terrible than not preaching. It can even make people lose hope. Repeat again, this is not asking for your opinions, it is informing you."

"We...I am the Pope's canonized bishop!"

"Then go find the Pope!" Gray shouted loudly: "There will not be your place to stay in the Aeroy Peninsula!"

Bishop Fides and Bishop Bert were speechless.

...

"When did you let us go!" Li Wei, who was locked tightly and had a disheveled face, shouted.

"What I do now is nothing but what you originally wanted to do to me. I will not let you go. You will be imprisoned and I will take you with you wherever you go. Until I feel that you will be released, at least harmless to the world and to my faith."

"The Pope will not agree!"

"This matter does not require the Pope's consent." Gray replied coldly.

...

"Your Majesty the King, you not only betrayed the agreement, but also took the initiative to attack Duke Bert afterwards. Tell me what to do with you?"

Lu Sien V, who was trembling on the ground, quickly said, "I...I will give you food, 90,000 tons! All you want!"

"But you don't have ninety thousand tons of food."

"No, I have!"

Lu Sien V blinked and stared at Gray blankly.

Grey stared at him quietly.

After a long time, Gray whispered: "You are no longer suitable to be a king."

"Ah?" Lu Sien V sat down on the ground in dejection, opening his eyes wide.

Turning his face, Gray said, "Arthur, he abdicates and you succeed to the throne. The town of Buck belongs to the Principal of Bert, which is the price of your previous actions. I heard that you have captured the Duke of Bert and my daughter, and I want to see them. They must be safe. In addition, I need to borrow food from you. Go back and calculate how much you can give me. I will pay it back, but it won't be soon. At the same time, recruiting food will not cause famine, and we don't want anyone to suffer from it. You should understand what I mean. And."

Speaking of this, Greyton lived.

Arthur looked at Gray carefully.

"Don't make me think you are like your father and are not suitable to be a king."

"Yes!" Arthur bowed respectfully.

After Lu Sien and his son left, only Gray was left in the room. Gray looked at the sky outside the window and said blankly: "I think I'm in emotions."

"I can see that it is because of the influence of the power of the Demon Lord?" Black Cat asked softly.

Gray shook his head slowly: "I still don't think it's not. But I must admit that I do have emotions. It's... hatred. Although I will do this even without emotions, I can't find any kindness in my answer to them. I didn't do that before."

"It is normal to have emotions, and it is abnormal to have almost no emotions like you did before. Of course, I am not saying that you are in good mood. It's just... As you know more, you know more, and you get more disappointed, everyone will have emotions. The same is true for lichs. This is growth."

"Is it new, confused about growth?"

"Yes, it's not the confusion of faith, but the confusion of growth. Just as the charlatan pastor said. People should also have some emotions, otherwise, others will constantly challenge your bottom line, and you will not be able to complete your own affairs smoothly. You need a little majesty. Sometimes it's not necessarily a bad thing."

"Okay." Gray said softly: "Then I will slowly adapt to my emotional self. I can be disappointed, but I should not give up hope. If the world is not good enough, then transform him better by myself instead of sighing or standing by and complaining about the world."

“Yes, that’s it.”

"Black Cat, I think you are greater than the Pope, really."

“Huh?”

"Isn't it? The four paladins trained by the Pope are all in the prison cells of the paladins you trained. Is there anything more to prove your greatness than this?"
