After participating in the bishop's council, Jacob, with his cronies and supporters, stepped out of the church's church door in full view of the believers.

The cardinal, with a gloomy face and an eagle-like face, glanced back at the cross above the church, and whispered, "All this is the will of the Lord. He is testing us and testing whether we still take up arms. The determination to defend the faith!"

Another cardinal looked at Jacob and said worriedly, "I heard that the southern empire was very strict with gunpowder weapons. If you want to purchase large quantities, even the noble regiments in the empire may not be able to do so. , Where can we get so many guns?"

Jacob glanced at the interrogator and said contemptuously, "The Church of the Heavenly Father has existed on this continent for thousands of years, and our catechumens are scattered in every corner of the world. How can we stop them with only a few weapons? The determination of those believers to be holy?"

"You mean, someone can provide us with a lot of imperial weapons?"

Just as Jacob was about to open his mouth, a church deacon hurried to his side and whispered, "My lord, the one from the south is here."

Jacob's eyes widened, and his expression was happy. "Are you coming? Is someone else there now?"

The deacon was embarrassed and hesitated.

Jacob frowned and shouted, "What's the hesitation?! Hurry up!"

"That lord is now in the prison of the First Heretic Inquisition..."

Jacob was taken aback, "Prison? What did he do in that place?!"

The deacon cried and said, "I don't know! We invited him to the banquet and prepared the most luxurious room for him. However, as soon as the adult’s carriage entered the capital of the Papal State, it went straight to the heresy court..."

Jacob rubbed his temples with his fingers, and said helplessly, "You lead the way, I will see him now!"

"Yes!"

The first heresy court, the prison of repentance.

As the most frightening building on the entire continent, in the eyes of many people in the First Heretic Judge, it is almost a "hell" existence.

From the surface, the First Heretic Inquisition is nothing more than a two-story low-rise bungalow, covering an area of ​​less than 2,000 square meters.

But if you really walk into it, you will find that this building is like a pyramid buried deep in the earth, and the above ground is just the tip of an iceberg.

The underground part of the First Heretic Inquisition has a total of eleven floors, and the deeper the single floor is, the larger the area.

Someone once said that the deepest level of the First Heretic Inquisition was even bigger than the duny palace of the Papal Kingdom, but this was just a rumor, and no one confirmed this claim.

As for Bishop Jacob, under the guidance of the deacon of the church, he saw the "guest" from the south in the fifth underground prison of the Heresy Inquisition.

This guest is a fairly young man. He is guarded by a group of strong, hill-like bodyguards, standing in front of a cell in an underground prison, looking through the cold iron fence in a dazed manner. Know what is thinking.

Jacob looked at the group of sturdy men with expressionless faces and puppets, and took two steps subconsciously.

Glancing at the church knight behind him, Jacob took a long breath, settled, and coughed vigorously.

Hearing the cough, the young man turned his head as if he had just awakened from a dream, and smiled and looked at Jacob, "Sorry, Lord Bishop, I didn't notice you coming."

The nose is full of disgusting breath, and the feet are full of viscous blood-like muddy. Jacob said dissatisfiedly, "Katiri, why are you here?!"

The young man called Katili nodded and smiled, "Master Bishop, I am a believer of the Lord. As soon as I enter this city, I can't wait to feel the majesty of God."

Jacob shook his head irritably and said, "If you want to get close to the Lord, you can go to the cathedral! Or, you can also go to the preaching hall!"

Kattili turned around, took two steps closer to Jacob, and said with a smile, "The people under the rule of God are a bunch of dull lambs. If they are at ease for too long, they will begin to question and neglect. Heart. So, what is the best way for them to learn how to stay in awe and how to reflect on their original intentions the fastest?"

Looking at Katila's overly pale face, Jacob's right eyelid jumped. "The best way?"

The young man shrugged and said in an unusually relaxed tone, "It's very simple. Just let them see the same kind being peeled, bloodletted, cramped, roasted, and finally served on the table."

Jacob's eyes widened in an instant, his fingertips trembled, and his mouth opened slightly, but he couldn't say anything.

Katili walked by Jacob's side without stopping, and left a sentence "Come on, my master, let's talk about business."

Smelling the strong perfume scent remaining in the air that the young man walked by, Jacob looked at the pile of bones left in the prison cell, and his right eyelid couldn't stop jumping again. Up.

Twilight West, the king's palace.

"Don't you think our daughter is a bit precocious?"

Deirdre, who covered his chest with a piece of fur on the giant warm bed of the palace, frowned and glanced at the silver-haired Valkyrie beside her husband who fell into a drowsy after joy, and whispered, "The other girls are three years old. At the time, all I thought about every day were toys and food, but Aurora was telling me that she wanted to leave Twilight City to take a look outside."

Todd lowered his head to look at the restless person under his bedding, and sighed, "Palace life is too depressing for her. It's normal to want to go out."

Deirdre bit her lip and whispered, "Aurora told me that she wants to go to your hometown..."

Todd was taken aback, turned his head to look at Deirdre, and found that the other person's eyes contained too much emotion.

Deirdre lowered her head and slowly said, "Aurora is your daughter and my only one. In the future, she will become one of the heirs of the kingdom..."

Deirdre’s words didn’t go on here~lightnovelpub.net~ but Todd had already understood her meaning.

"Aurora just thinks that life in the palace is too boring, let her walk around the city more, and soon she will forget about it."

Deirdre nodded helplessly after hearing Todd's words.

Todd held Deirdre's shoulder lightly and cast a questioning look at the opponent.

Deirdre's cheeks were flushed, and he covered his chest with his hands, and shook his head in a panic.

Todd was a little disappointed. He held Deirdre in his arms and gently kissed the other's forehead, "Go to sleep."

Early the next morning, Todd woke up from the bed, no longer sleepy, looked at the two women dreaming beside him, and climbed up from the bed creptically.

Under the service of the servant, Todd walked into the flower garden of the palace, enjoying breakfast while looking at the distant city amidst the beautiful scenery of flowers.
