Job hunting in another world [Western Fantasy]

The eyes of the ministers immediately shifted to Daniel, and Daniel nodded calmly, and did not refute His Majesty's face on the spot.

His Majesty the King laughed, and then left the meeting with the dog.

After he left, the meeting was gloomy. Although the important officials didn't say anything, they looked at Daniel very unfriendly.

"In that case, the meeting..." said the Chancellor with a wrinkled face.

Daniel waved his hand and said, "I'm going to persuade His Majesty." He left the hall straight away.

The general snorted coldly behind him, presumably the attitude of these ministers towards Daniel could not get better, but at this time Daniel couldn't care less about it.

He chased after the back of His Majesty the King, but was stopped by a person.

It was an old man in a black robe, as dry as an old tree, with a tall black round cap on his head, white hair and beard, serious and rigid facial features.He held a long wooden staff in his hand, and behind him were two silent men in gray robes, showing his extraordinary identity.

"Your Excellency the Archbishop." Daniel stopped and saluted him.

The Archbishop looked down at him and asked in a flat tone, "Your Excellency, where are you going?"

Daniel was disgusted for a while, glanced at the garden pond in the palace, and then turned back lightly, showing a smile: "It's just a few words with His Majesty the King."

The archbishop chuckled: "Your Excellency, it is also my job to contact His Majesty the King. You don't have to worry about it in the future. I heard that all the ministers in the palace have opinions on you, and there are many people in the church who are against you." The voice is not pleasing to both sides. Why don't you spend more time and sit on your bishop's seat."

Daniel glanced at him lightly and said, "Thank you, Archbishop, for your guidance."

He was about to leave after speaking, but the Archbishop stopped him again and said, "Daniel, are you trying to persuade His Majesty the King to take a long-term view on the matter of the Northern Alliance?"

Daniel: "This is what I should do. What the Shilan Empire needs most now is to cultivate health and wellness. There is no benefit in attacking the Northern Alliance at this time. Sooner or later, the Shilan Empire will be dragged down by the too long front."

The archbishop shook his head and said with a sigh: "Daniel, what you should see is not the future of the Shilan Empire, but the future of the Chaos Church. The Chaos Church will use the Shilan Empire as a springboard to develop to the entire Redras continent. You How can you be held back by a mere Shilan Empire?"

"Sure enough, it's because you were born in the aristocratic class of the Shilan Empire." The archbishop wrinkled his nose with some distaste, and sneered, "Daniel, you should understand that now you are the bishop of the Church of Chaos. Between the nobles and the church In between, there is nothing good to end."

Daniel twitched his lips.

Now that he was talking about this, he remembered some of the reform measures that the Church of Chaos had carried out before. In his opinion, these measures were nothing more than self-destruction, speeding up the road towards the destruction of the Church of Light.When he first joined the Church of Chaos and climbed up step by step, he wanted to create a church that could replace the Church of Light—no matter what kind of god it believed in or what doctrine it would do.

What he wants is a church in which the king is greater than the pope, the court is greater than the church, and the law is greater than doctrine.

At a very early age, his thoughts were circulated among the nobles through the book "Monetary Theory". The church only cares about the affairs of heaven, and must hand over secular power to the secular nobles, and they really shouldn't occupy so much society. resource.Wealth is not created through prayer, but by people led by nobles.If it has been controlled by the church, the Shilan Empire will inevitably decline gradually and be abandoned by history!After all, the church can only keep people pious and continue to atone for their sins, but it cannot help people produce any clothes or food.

When fighting, they can't use holy water as a weapon.

As a result, he won the support of nobles and some businessmen. When he was promoted rapidly in the Church of Chaos, another faction dominated by the archbishop had already disliked Daniel.The reform measures they promulgated were the product of their struggle with Daniel, which allowed the archbishops to once again gain the right to speak.

Presumably, the idea of ​​attacking the Northern Alliance this time is also inseparable from the archbishop and the others.

Daniel was a former nobleman, once a businessman, and now a priest.He has always maintained the acumen of a businessman, weighing costs and benefits at all times.It is definitely not in his interest to destroy the Shi Lan Empire.

"If you think so, then you are wrong." Daniel said coldly, "Whether it is from nobles or members of the church, I have received support. The most important thing is that His Majesty the King favors me."

The archbishop was very angry. He lowered his voice, leaned forward, and looked at Daniel closely: "Don't be too arrogant, you are just a bishop! Look at the good things you have done, it is simply ridiculous! The church will always remember you The failure of Coldwind City and the Beastman Empire! If you still want to maintain the goodwill of His Majesty the King, don't make any more suggestions!"

Daniel frowned.

Among all his activities in the Church of Chaos, he only ended in failure twice, and those two times were all because of the same person!

He never thought that meeting Noah in Banyaf City was the beginning of all the bad things.

At this moment, Daniel has not received the news of the staff, otherwise he would have known, not twice, but three times.

Thinking of this, Daniel's patience with the archbishop was completely exhausted, he left coldly, and did not chase after His Majesty the King, but returned to his residence.

His Majesty the new king used to be a younger brother, and finally became king with the support of the Church of Chaos, but he didn't show the king's wisdom at all.To release all the suppressed desires in the first half of his life all at once, it seems distorted and weird.He stays with the dog all day long, decides political affairs completely according to his own mood, knows more about politics than military affairs, but has a sensitive self-esteem, and has to compare everything with the previous king. Daniel would rather he didn't care about anything.Facts have proved that the king is not necessarily wise and powerful, and an ordinary person may become even worse when he becomes a king.

It's not very useful to persuade him, the archbishop is right about that, it's better not to waste those little favors on this kind of thing.

Daniel's residence is very private and not part of the church.As soon as he came in, a servant came forward and said, "Master, the envoy of Dura is dead."

Daniel's eyelids twitched violently. Dora was the gray-robed man he sent to retrieve the staff.

"How did he die?" he asked.

"Dead in Arabella's laboratory, and Arabella's body."

Daniel rubbed between his brows: "Where's the staff?"

"Missing." The attendant said: "We found the breath of magic in the laboratory. Maybe it was the magician on the White Tower. After all, the magician is too powerful in the Northern Alliance. They found Arabella."

Daniel calmly listened to him, and cursed in a low voice: "Arabella, that trash who has done more than succeed in doing nothing...!"

He stood still and thought for a while. Since the plan failed, he had to find another way. Fortunately, he still had some other clues.

"Don't leak these things." Daniel said, "Dispose of the bodies of Arabella and Dora. Only you and I know about the staff."

"Yes." The attendant answered in a low voice.

"Only you and I know." Daniel emphasized again: "If there is a third person who knows, it is your problem."

Northern League.

Although Aldrich and Daniel belonged to the hostile camp, if given the chance, the two sides would definitely kill each other completely.But at this time, they are facing the same dilemma.

"How could the Shilan Empire come here?" The leader of the alliance smiled nervously, and then said to Aldridge: "You are really too sensitive, we have not had a war with the Shilan Empire for a hundred years, and there is still It is impossible for them to fight over the natural moat of the Kansero Mountains."

"The Cancero Mountains are not insurmountable, I walked that road." Aldridge said.

"Aldridge, I know you are always worried about the safety of the alliance, but this is too unfounded." The leader of the alliance said: "You should be cautious about the source of the news."

Even though he said that, what he thought in his heart was that Aldrich didn't know good from bad, and he must have said such words that the Shilan Empire might call him in order to consolidate his position.

Aldridge sighed in his heart, he stared at the leader for a while, and said calmly: "The Shilan Empire has just occupied the Helmert Kingdom in the south. According to the news, they have more than 50 soldiers in total. Participated in the war. After occupying the kingdom of Helmert, they burned down the local church, gathered all the people in the church and massacred them, stripped their corpses, and searched for gold, silver and treasures in the flesh and bones The king of Helmert died in the rebellion, and even his teeth were taken out and sold. The blood flowed all over the land of Helmert, and even the horse-drawn carts could hardly walk in it, and the corpses had nowhere to go They can only be piled up on the road, and they can’t even be burned..."

"Don't say any more." The leader of the alliance paled: "We need to discuss this matter with the kingdoms before making a decision. It just so happens that the envoys of the kingdoms haven't left yet..."

Aldrich looked at him, and suddenly thought of the queen who was far away in the orc empire.Although she killed her brother and father with ruthless and decisive methods, she would never expose the people to danger and dare not do anything.Being her relatives and subordinates is a dangerous thing, but being her people can lead a stable life.

"I understand." Aldrich took a step back and saluted the leader of the alliance: "I still need to make preparations earlier, please allow me to resign."

The leader of the alliance looked at him with a complicated expression and waved his hand.
