I have a role in the heavens
Chapter 2357 Balance all parties and determine your mind
In the Great Hall of Light, members of the College of Cardinals in the holy city of Reims discussed the materials and reports submitted by Salde.
"The mental condition of the clergy and night watchmen in the diocese of Holm is very problematic," St. Melmoth, the master of the Knights Templar, said only of the report.
The remaining members of the College of Cardinals were all silent, because these extreme night watchmen obviously disagreed with Pope Benedict II's approach and believed that the church should not tolerate the Magic Council, let alone continue to fight because of the latest discovery of arcane magic. Changing the divine arts and doctrines is a blasphemy against the God of Truth, so they made such a strong counterattack in order to express their dissatisfaction to the church's senior leaders.
Benedict II's eyes were deep and dark, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking. After a long time, he spoke calmly.
"In that case, let's deal with it according to the opinions of the Glorious Cathedral! Punish the night watchman, remove the cardinal of the Inquisition, and transfer Amorton and others to the Holm Diocese!"
The cardinal of the Diocese of Violet immediately expressed his approval. Amorton and others are the confidants of Bishop Salde. They have been staying in Alto, which is a kind of constraint for him. Now they are just in time to clear out all the people in Salde. If he goes out, he can completely control the diocese, and his strength will naturally be enhanced, he said with great joy.
"I comply with the order of His Majesty the Pope and I will reappoint a cardinal in charge of the Inquisition."
The other cardinals remained silent and did not express their opinions when the matter was of no concern to them.
"Well, there is one more thing. Bishop Amorton angered Star Knight Ivan Vincent, and then went to Holm to ask him to be more honest and stop causing other troubles!"
"Ivan Vincent, the youngest epic knight, really shouldn't anger him anymore. This is a knight who grew up in Alto. He is already engaged to Natasha. We need to do our best. The strong man to win over!”
"Ivan Vincent is expected to become a legendary peak knight. He has great potential and outstanding talent. Indeed, we should not push him to the side of the Magic Council. We should try our best to win over him. This will be of great benefit to us in controlling the Holm Church!"
Glorious Cathedral, Salde saw the written reply and rubbed the paper with a smile. Then he moved his finger. Juliana appeared at the end of the punishment list, but her punishment was much lighter than the two night watchmen who restrained Baron Austin. Those two were executed, while she was imprisoned for one year.
"Send Octave here." Sard ordered the cardinal on duty through the magic circle.
A moment later, Octave, who was wearing a bright red bishop's robe, walked out of the cardinal's study with an unusually gloomy expression. He was actually deprived of his position as the head of the tribunal, which was the second most important position among the cardinals. In a position of real power in a small parish, radical night watchmen appear every year. How much does this have to do with yourself?
"What's the big deal about killing a noble who listened to the mysterious voice and turned to the Magic Council? Is it against the Lord's teachings? Is it possible to see evil and let them develop? The church is really getting weaker!"
Walking in the Glorious Cathedral, Octave felt countless sympathetic looks, and couldn't help shouting in his heart.
"His Majesty the Pope, have you seen it? They are all sympathizing with me and questioning your handling of the matter!"
On June 20, the funerals of King Feltis and Prince Patrick had been completed. Natasha, who was wearing a black conservative dress, received Duke James, Duke Russell and Earl Sea Pines.
"The church's punishment results have come out. The two night watchmen who took action at that time will be executed by the tribunal. The other night watchmen will also be punished to varying degrees. Please convey this result to Baron Austin's family and help me convey my condolences."
Natasha drew a cross on her chest, looked solemn, expressed her sorrow to the Dukes, and spoke out the church's decision in a deep voice.
Duke James was a little dissatisfied. He was a liberal and had opinions about the church. Now that the night watchman killed a noble baron for no reason, it ended like this, which made him feel a sense of crisis.
"Just punish the night watchmen? Those lunatics will not be afraid. Are we going to live in fear in the future? The person in charge of the tribunal must be punished. Let them be alert, and immediately screen the night watchmen of the tribunal, and control all those with extreme tendencies Stay. Erase it. This is the view of some of our nobles. Her Majesty, this is also to ensure your safety. Madmen should not live!"
This punishment decision is actually not completely unacceptable to the liberals. They do not want to directly provoke a conflict with the church. It is expected that the church will make such a concession. The reason why Duke James used the topic to play on it is because he wants to Testing Natasha's attitude and inclination, this was a strategy they had long discussed. Duke Russell and Earl Haison nodded in agreement.
Natasha looked at the three of them seriously, and said righteously.
"Duke James, Duke Russell, and Earl Sea Pines. This time it was the church's fault for not being optimistic about the Extreme Night Watch. However, their apology was very sincere. I think the punishment result is acceptable. The execution of the murderer can already comfort Baron Austin. "
"Moreover, the head of the tribunal, Cardinal Octave, has also been dismissed from his post. I believe Bishop Sard will slowly control those lunatics. Your request is correct, but it cannot be too radical and does not give the church some relief. It not only violates the Lord's teachings of kindness and forgiveness, but also does not give the church a step forward. The consequences are definitely not what the nobles want to see."
Duke James seemed slightly disappointed when he heard Natasha's answer, but he still accepted the reality and said very respectfully.
"Since Her Majesty you think it is acceptable, we have no objection."
In the study room of a side hall in the Nexor Palace, Ivan Vincent sat at the desk, flipping through the "Arcane" magazine in his hand. Arcane represents the knowledge of the origin and operating laws of the world, and Arcana is the essence and principle of magic. Meaning, this "Arcane" magazine was founded by Douglas three hundred years ago. Each issue will publish the latest discoveries and theories of the Magic Council. Ivan Vincent saw a familiar name on it, Lucien. Ivan Vincent, he proposed some new theories on electromagnetism. At this time, he has become a sixth-ring arcanist and a fifth-ring magician. He is only one step away from becoming a high-level magician. He is making rapid progress and deserves to have a soul. The protagonist of the library plug-in stands on the shoulders of countless scientific giants and has unparalleled advantages and talents in studying arcana.
Natasha walked into the study alone, came to stand in front of Ivan Vincent, looked at the "Arcane" in his hand, frowned slightly, and reminded.
"This is the Nexor Palace after all, and there are many eyes staring at it. You are just openly reading the magic magazine of the Magic Council. It can easily be interpreted as being close to the Magic Council!"
Ivan Vincent put down the magazine in his hand, looked up at Natasha, showed a faint smile, and said something shocking.
"Just to let those eyes see it, so that the enlightened nobles can be appeased!"
"You should have already conveyed the church's decision on punishment. Duke James and the others will definitely be dissatisfied and even a little uneasy. They will most likely make preparations in advance to deal with any eventuality!"
Natasha sighed. It was really difficult to sit in the Queen's position. The interests of each party needed to be considered. Both the bowl of water and the uneven bowl of water had to be balanced. It was necessary to make decisions based on the situation at all times. Adjustment.
"This time, the night watchman was indeed too extreme. He actually dared to break into the noble area and killed a baron, which aroused the hostility of all the nobles. Even some conservative nobles were extremely dissatisfied!"
Ivan Vincent stood up, walked to Natasha, held her hand, walked out of the study, and said.
"Since the church has made the nobles feel wronged and dissatisfied, then you need to make a statement and give a gesture to the nobles! Appease all the dissatisfied nobles!"
"What to do?"
Natasha lowered her head and glanced at the two clasped hands. She felt pretty good. She didn't have the repulsive feeling she had with men in the past. She was even vaguely happy. Her mind was not thinking about things at all, so she asked directly.
"I remember Mr. Hathaway is your elder, and he has a very good relationship with you! Don't you want to visit your elder?"
Natasha naturally thought about this, but after she became the queen of Holm, this idea was restrained by him. She could not act recklessly and make actions that could easily be considered tendentious.
"Is it okay to do this? Will it dissatisfy conservatives and the teachings?"
Ivan Vincent looked up at the sky, and a floating city came into view. It was Alinge, the headquarters of the Continental Magic Council. It was a paradise for magic. He was extremely interested and said.
"I want to visit Arlinge and am very interested in the Magic Parliament of this world!"
"Then it's a happy decision. Let's go to Arlinge together to visit Mother-in-law Hathaway. Who made the church right this time? It just gave us a reason and an excuse. I'm really grateful to those radical night watchmen. Wait until Lake When Duke Si and the church asked, I said it was to appease all the restless nobles!”
With a bright smile on her face, Natasha held Ivan Vincent's hand tightly with her palms. She made this decision very lovingly, quite like a fatuous monarch, smiling for the beauty, beacon fire drama princes.
After leaving Nexor Palace, Duke Russell and Earl Season crowded into Duke James' carriage. The three of them fell into an unspeakable silence. It was not until they were approaching the villa that Duke Russell sighed, broke the depression, and looked at Looking at the other two people, he persuaded.
"Her Majesty the Queen has been nurtured by the church since she was a child, and she grew up in Alto, which has a conservative religious atmosphere. It is normal to be slightly biased towards the church, and there is no need to be too pessimistic."
"I'm afraid this is just the beginning. Her teacher is Beria, the Glory of God."
James's face was gloomy and changeable, showing a bit of dissatisfaction. He didn't expect Natasha to be biased towards the Magic Council, but she couldn't be biased towards the Church of Truth. It was best to remain completely neutral.
Earl Haisong nodded, lowered his voice, and spoke to the two dukes with a cautious expression.
"We need to make some preparations early so that we won't be at a loss when the time comes. We have to make some arrangements."
Suddenly, there was the sound of dragon-scaled horses galloping outside, and a knight who was watching the movements of Nexor Palace leaned against the carriage window.
"What's wrong?"
Duke James recognized that this was a loyal knight of his family, and asked in a lowered voice.
The knight had a strange expression, a mixture of surprise and joy. He looked around with his eyes and spoke quickly in a low voice.
"Duke Ivan Vincent has been reading Arcana magazine recently. Her Majesty the Queen and Ivan Vincent are going to Arline to visit Her Excellency Hathaway!"
"What?"
Earl Haisong blurted out, there was such a change, what happened to this world!
"Her Majesty, shouldn't you be close to the church? Why did she suddenly make such a shocking decision? Is this to express a position?"
"His Excellency Ivan Vincent's actions reveal a clear signal. This means that Her Majesty the Queen will never exclude the Magic Council and is sending a signal to everyone!"
"She will govern the kingdom fairly, never favoring the church, and appease the uneasy hearts of all nobles!"'
Count Haisong's eyes were filled with confusion. The world was changing too fast. What should they do?
"Do we still need to make preparations?"
"Just wait and see, don't be anxious. It seems that Her Majesty the Queen and Her Excellency Ivan Vincent will not necessarily fall to the conservative side!"
"That's right, we can wait a little longer and wait and see what happens. We can't make any mistakes. We still need time to judge!"
In the Queen's Palace, Natasha returned here. Camille had been waiting here for a long time, looking at Natasha with a strange expression.
"Why do you suddenly want to visit Arlinge? This is really too radical. Even visiting the Holm Royal Magic Tower is fine. After all, it has the title of royal and royal family, and there are many royal members. With good reasons, it will not irritate the church and conservative aristocrats."
"What Ivan Vincent proposed is that it can appease the uneasiness of the nobles and won't have much impact!"
Natasha said with a smile, without any intention of changing her mind, which made Camille's eyes look even weirder. A trace of determination flashed in her deep and cold eyes, and she gestured to Natasha.
"What's wrong? Aunt Camille!"
Camille raised her chin and pointed to the mirror in the corner of the living room.
"Look at yourself in the mirror and see how you look now. Is this still the Natasha I know?"
Natasha walked to the mirror strangely and doubtfully, and saw a slender and well-proportioned purple-haired beauty. "Her cheeks were flushed with happiness, which softened the heroic and toughness on her face, making her already beautiful. The unparalleled appearance is even more bright and charming, the eyes are like water, and the light is flowing, and the corners of the mouth are smiling, showing an indescribable taste.
"Is this still me?"
Natasha forgot how long it had been since she last saw this kind of herself. It was probably when she was with Sylvia.
Camille had a straight face, very calmly, without any surprise, and pointed out the truth in a very calm tone.
"You have fallen in love with His Excellency Ivan Vincent."
"What?!"
Natasha's expression suddenly became extremely distorted and entangled, as if she had been struck by lightning.
Camille was like a wise but cold witch, regardless of Natasha's expression, she revealed it mercilessly.
"I feel very happy when I see him. He always has endless things to say. Even if sometimes we can't find a topic, we feel warm when we are silent with each other."
"When talking to the Grand Duke and me, he will be mentioned once in a few words."
"Sometimes I will laugh inexplicably by myself. This is the reaction of falling in love with someone!"
"For him, you even violated your own position and went to visit Alinge. You should know that even if the church is in the wrong, doing so will make the church dissatisfied, not to mention that you took the initiative to plot against him and force him to do so. Being engaged to you is not normal at all!"
Natasha seemed to be struck by lightning one after another, her expression was abnormally distorted, she seemed to want to struggle, and retorted somewhat unconvinced.
"But, the genders are different. He is a man. Besides, shouldn't good friends help each other?"
"I got engaged to him just to maintain our friendship!"
The distortion on Natasha's face gradually developed in an uncertain direction, and she subconsciously paced back and forth in the room, and the pace became faster and faster. Suddenly, Natasha gritted her teeth, passed Camille, and rushed out the door.
"Wait a moment!"
Calm Camille was also startled by Natasha's actions and quickly stopped her, worried that she might have said too much and Natasha would not be able to accept it, and that she would do something drastic.
Seeing that Natasha finally regained her senses, Camille stopped and spoke again to persuade her.
"Natasha, you don't need to think too much about relationships. This is what you used to encourage yourself. Have you forgotten? It's just because the person you liked before happened to be Sylvia. So, this time you fell in love The person is Ivan Vincent, he is a man, this kind of thing is not worth panicking."
While Camille was enlightening, she was a little worried, wondering if she had chosen the wrong time, warned her too early, and failed to live up to the Grand Duke's instructions before he came.
Natasha turned around slowly, but the expression on her face was beyond Camille's imagination, with a kind of joy coming from deep inside her heart, her eyes were bright, filled with joy, and there was uncontrollable excitement between her eyebrows. , seems to finally understand his own heart, no longer troubled.
"you?"
Camille was so surprised that she didn't know how to react. At this time, Natasha's reaction seemed a little different from what she had imagined. It was not unacceptable, but full of joy.
Natasha has been feeling confused and wandering lately. But now that most of this emotion has dissipated, it seems that she has found a new goal, so she is no longer at a loss, with a bit of determination in her eyes, Natasha said with a bright smile.
"Aunt Camille, don't worry about me, I will work hard for my own happiness!"
"oh!"
Camille felt that this was the day she was most frightened. Did Natasha, who didn’t like men, accept her changes so quickly? What was wrong with the world? It was changing so fast that she seemed to be unable to keep up. I have the same feeling as Earl Haisong.
Natasha clenched her right hand into a fist, her expression extremely determined and excited, as if she was a warrior about to rush to the battlefield, full of fighting spirit and fighting spirit, and she said very seriously.
"I, Natasha, am a true knight. I will not back down when facing any difficulties, but look for ways to solve them."
Natasha's voice gradually became high-pitched and full of passion, just like when she was in the Dark Mountain Mountains, she spoke loudly with high eyes and full of fighting spirit.
"My knight's creed is to move forward, move forward. Always move forward and defeat all obstacles head-on!"
