Chapter 13 The Victims of Imperial Power and Church Power

"Thank you for doing so much for me." Sean put on a grateful expression and said to Bishop Benjamin: "But I'm just an ordinary lord, why did you spend so much money to heal me quickly?"

Bishop Benjamin shook his head with a smile, and instead of answering, asked, "Your teacher is Paladin Rhys Field (Field) from Palomia Cathedral in the capital, right?"

When it comes to Rees Field, Sean still has a little impression.

The predecessor learned the "chivalry" from him, and then quarreled with Grand Duke Ryan and left the capital.

Speaking of which, without this Knight Rees (sounds a bit like Li Si), Sean would not have left the capital, would not have been attacked by bandits, and he would have no chance to travel to this world.

"That's right, my teacher is Paladin Rhys, and I'm very 'thankful' to him!" Sean added an accent on the word "thank you".

Bishop Benjamin didn't understand the meaning of Xiao En's words, and said with a smile: "The matter of why I want to heal you quickly actually dates back to a few years ago.

About six or seven years ago, several bishops of the Principality of Ryan, including me, had a discussion in the Palomian Cathedral.

According to the prophecy of the God of Light, we believe that you are the incarnation of the God of Light in the Principality of Lane, that is, the 'holy son' of the church.

After getting the approval of Grand Duke Ryan, we will let the paladin of Rhys be your teacher to guide you in practice, which is why I will spare no effort to heal you after you are seriously injured. "

"Son?"

Bishop Benjamin's words were a bit too unbelievable, which made Sean at a loss for what to say for a while.

According to his understanding, the status of the Holy Son in the Holy Light Church is not ordinary, only under the Holy Maiden.

But there is only one saint in the church, but there are more than a dozen sons.emmmm
The Holy Son has a very high status in the church, even to a certain extent, it is much higher than the Bishop Benjamin in front of him.

But Holy Son is just an honorary title and has no real power. Just like those earls without territory in Jorn City, they still have to be humble when they see the earl of the river.

. . . . . .

"That's right, you should be the Holy Son." Bishop Benjamin added: "We originally wanted to train you with all our strength and let you ascend to the position of Grand Duke, so that the church can better benefit the people of the Principality.

But not long ago, Paladin Rhys was suddenly arrested by the Grand Duke's personal guards on the grounds that he was having an affair with a nobleman's wife. Your Highness Sean, you were also forced to leave the capital. Our plan fell short. "

"Oh, so that's the case." Xiao En had a realization in his heart, and a puzzle that had troubled him for a long time finally had an answer.

In the past two days, Sean has been thinking about a question, that is, why did Grand Duke Ryan send Sean to the border town of River Beach as the lord?
After all, he is his own son, so if he is disobedient, he can just give him a good beating. Throwing a 16-year-old child into such a remote place, there is a high probability that he will be beaten to death by the old fritter lords here.

Now he finally understood that it turned out that Sean became a victim of the struggle between the Church of the Holy Light and Grand Duke Ryan, and died young at the age of 16, what a pity!

Thinking of this, Sean couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.

. . . . . .

Bishop Benjamin saw Sean shaking his head and consoled him: "Although the Archduke sent you to Hetan Town to become a lord, our Holy Light Church will not give up our Holy Son easily.

We will send priests and paladins into your territory to provide healing to the local residents, and also to protect the security of your territory. "

"Really? Can these priests and paladins go with me?" Sean's eyes lit up.

Regardless of the intentions of the priests sent by the Church of the Holy Light (it is estimated that they have no intentions, at most they are preaching), and they still have to wipe out the gnolls on the territory. If there is a group of priests who are good at healing, it will also reduce the burden on the soldiers.

"This. Because I only recently found out that you have arrived in the city of Yorn, and the turnover of personnel is too high. It is unlikely that you will come to your territory in the near future. It may take three months." Bishop Benjamin said a little embarrassedly.

"That's it." Sean was very disappointed.

Now the territory is in need of manpower, if you don't come, the territory will be almost rebuilt in three months, so what's the use of you coming?
"But don't worry, the God of Light will take care of every believer's territory." Bishop Benjamin waved one hand, and a burst of holy light burst out from his fingertips.

Immediately afterwards, driven by the power of the holy light of Bishop Benjamin, a book on the bookshelf floated towards them.

"This is the most basic technique for Paladins and Priests to gain the power of faith through prayer." Bishop Benjamin handed the book to Sean, "You can teach this book to the children in the territory for free. If you have children If you can master the content of Chapter 1 of this book within seven days, then he will be qualified to become a candidate for a priest or a paladin. At that time, you can send them directly to John Cathedral, and I will teach them carefully so that They can better serve the God of Light."

Sean took the book. The book was made of parchment. The title of the book was simply "Faith and Practice".

Sean forcibly resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and replied in a very sincere tone: "Don't worry, my lord bishop, I will definitely let the fire of holy light burn throughout the territory."

. . . . .

Next, Sean and Bishop Benjamin chatted for nearly half an hour.

During this half hour, Sean disguised himself as a devout believer and kept asking Bishop Benjamin various questions.

How great is the God of Light?
Where is the headquarters of the Church of the Holy Light?
How influential is the Holy Light Church in the entire world?
How can the power of faith be improved besides praying?

Who is stronger, paladin or magician?

Seeing Sean's "fanatic" eyes, Bishop Benjamin was very satisfied and gave him answers one by one.

The experience value increased very quickly. In this half hour, Sean's experience value increased to level 10 17/100, a full 11 points of experience increase!
If you keep asking questions at this pace, you will be able to reach level 11 in a few hours.

Sean wanted to continue asking, but at this moment Pastor Joshua came in and said there was something urgent, so Sean reluctantly made a mistake with the experience and bid farewell to Bishop Benjamin.

"Master Bishop, rest assured, I will leave first, and I will let the light of the God of Light shine on every corner of the territory."

Bishop Benjamin glanced at Sean with satisfaction, and said solemnly: "Then goodbye, Your Highness Sean, may the Holy Light protect you."

. . . . . .

After bidding farewell to Bishop Benjamin, Sean took his bodyguard John and left the Holy Light Church of Jorn.

This visit to the church was not bad, and I gained a lot of experience points, and through chatting with Bishop Benjamin, Xiao En became more vigilant about the Church of the Holy Light.

Although Duke Ryan won the battle between the church and Duke Ryan this time, and Sean became a victim and was dispatched to a border town, but it does not mean that Duke Ryan won.

According to Bishop Benjamin's description, the Church of the Holy Light is one of the two largest churches on the mainland, and its size is not comparable to that of the small Principality of Ryan.

The failure this time can only be said that the Church of the Holy Light's branch in the Principality of Ryan lost, not the Church of the Holy Light.

After receiving the support from the headquarters, the Church of the Holy Light's next counterattack will be even more intense.

"The victim of the struggle between imperial power and religious power, oh, the predecessor is really pitiful, but don't worry, since I used your body, I will try my best to avenge you." Sean looked at the towering steeple of the church, silently Made an oath.
