Chapter 269: The Bishop Arrives

Five days later.

The luxury passenger ship "Oliver" equipped with the new [Windbreaker] system arrived at the Port of Velen dock.

This luxury passenger ship was originally exclusive to the Lawson family and had never received outsiders, but today the ship was filled with blue and white Holy Cross shield flags!

This is the symbol of the Knights of the Holy Cross to which the Holy Light Religion belongs.

This knighthood is affiliated with the Central Church. Each member has at least the strength of a gold-level knight and exists only to protect the red cardinal level.

Wherever they appear, it represents the arrival of at least the central bishop level.

Yes, the big shot from the Holy Light Religion is here.

And it was very strange. They obviously had their own ship but didn't use it. Instead, they rented the Lawson family's passenger ship.

The meaning is self-evident.

The edge of the pier was also crowded at this time, and flags with various markings were flapping in the wind.

The Holy Grail flag of the Holy Light Religion, the two-headed snake of the Stein family, the giant bear of the Lawson family...

Almost all the nobles in Maruo City came.

Everyone had heard about the conflict between Ethan and the Holy Light Cult. In order to avoid this happening to them, everyone rushed to the dock in unison.

Of course Ethan came too.

After suffering the loss last time, Ethan came to the dock early in the morning this time.

Giving others a little face can buy you a peaceful life, which is worth it no matter how you look at it.

When Cardinal Doromile appeared on the gangway in a bright red robe, the crowd immediately burst into overwhelming cheers.

The cheers reached a climax when another great sage, Ilysis, appeared next to him in white robes.

People's faces turned red with excitement, and some even had tears in their eyes.

Everyone is rejoicing for the arrival of the bishop and the sage!

However, there were always some discordant sounds that broke into Ethan's ears.

For example, Embiid behind him whispered to Kemp: "Kemp, you'd better find a way to squeeze out some tears. Also, your smile is uglier than crying!"

"Fuck you, stop talking about me, how do you think you are any better?"

"Shut up, you two!" Ethan couldn't bear to listen and stopped the two of them.

But I stopped these two people, but I couldn't stop others.

"Miss, are those two people sick? They kept standing there waving and refused to get off the boat!" Anna said to Sofia in a low voice while smiling.

"Shut up! If you don't speak, others will think you are mute!"

Bishop Dolomilei stayed on the boat with a smile and waved to everyone for three minutes. When he felt that it was almost done, he slowly walked off the boat with the great sage Ilysses.

"It seems that Maro City has a big problem! Almost no one has respect for the Holy See!" Bishop Dolomile said in a low voice to the great sage Ilysses beside him as he got off the boat.

"Who says it's not the case?" Elisis smiled bitterly: "The next step is to see how Bishop you can reestablish your authority. I'll wait and see!"

"As you wish!"

Bishop Doromile smiled back, then opened his hands and shouted loudly: "Ah... look who this is, isn't this the Duke of Lyon who turned the tide!"

The welcome ceremony went smoothly, and the nobles of Maro City successfully welcomed their new bishop.

Ethan was even lucky enough to ride in the same carriage as Bishop Dolomilei.

As for what the two said in the car, everyone was particularly curious, and so was Sofia.

As soon as she returned to the manor, Sophia couldn't wait to ask: "What happened?"

"Go to the Holy Light Church to repent in public next week! Each of the two soldiers' families will be compensated 1,000 gold!" Ethan replied calmly.

When Sophia heard this, she patted her chest and said, "That's okay! Finally, I don't want to embarrass myself anymore."

Ethan raised his eyes: "Indeed! They are very sincere!

However, Bishop Dolomilei still has a request. He wants the parliament to allocate money to the church to establish a rescue center.

I refused because the parliament had already passed the "No Talk of Two Religions" bill.

But even so, he still insisted on funding from the parliament and establishing rescue centers in the name of the parliament, as long as their people participated.

Tsk...I just can't figure it out.

Before, Capudo asked for funding from the parliament as soon as he came, and now Bishop Doromile does the same.

And it's always the first thing.

What's wrong with them?

Are you so insistent that the parliament must pay for it? "

Seeing that Ethan didn’t know the reason, Sofia’s eyes suddenly widened: “You don’t know the reason?

Then why were you so anxious to come forward in the first place?

you……"

Sofia was so suffocated that she couldn't speak for a while, "You..." After a long time, she finally answered: "So, why did you propose the 'No Talk of Two Religions' bill in the first place?"

"Uh..." Ethan had already realized that there was something wrong with this, so he said, "I just hate the church, and I want to oppose anything they do!

So, what’s the saying here? "

"Haha..." Sophia burst into laughter: "I thought you knew that I admired you so much at that time.

Who would have thought that you hit it by mistake? It really made me laugh to death! "

"What's the argument?"

"What explanation?" Sophia snorted coldly: "There are many explanations here.

For example, the church can use parliamentary funds to settle black debts, or it can win people's hearts without spending its own money.

Of course, these are secondary.

The most important thing is that if the parliament dares to allocate funds to them, they can control the parliament! "

Ethan was shocked and puzzled: "The parliament allocated funds to them, and they can still control the parliament? Isn't this too exaggerated!"

"Exaggerated?" Sophia sneered: "What's so exaggerated?

Let alone the parliament, even if the Aslan Empire dared to allocate funds to them, they could control the entire empire.

In fact, the empire was like this in the earliest days.

This is also one of the reasons for the origin of the Temple, and it is the main reason.

You should know that the Temple controls the empire's taxation!

Many notorious taxes were invented by them. Have you ever thought about why this is?

Also, you haven't thought about that day. Why did Leon sit next to you when you were at the meeting?

And he also emphasized to introduce Caputo to you?

You don't think he introduced you just for the sake of introduction, do you? "

The more Ethan listened, the more he felt that the matter was serious: "Don't keep me in suspense, or tell me what the reason is, why can they control the parliament just by allocating money?"

"There's no rush for this!" Sophia shook her finger, looked at Ethan with a worried look, and asked: "You shouldn't have agreed to him, right? Huh?"

"No!" Ethan spread his hands: "Although I don't know the reason, I always feel that something is wrong, so I just said I would consider it!"

"That's fine, that's fine!"
