scepter

Back to half a day ago, Yannick was still on the dragon island with only one male dragon.

The male dragon Leopold is very lonely, it is a bitter tear to say, as the only remaining male dragon in this world, he looks very precious, but in fact no one cares about him, the only two male companions died Not only do female dragons dislike his type, they even disdain to mate with Leopold, preferring to like females.

Of course, Leopold doesn't want to be with female dragons, because he still likes males in essence. Although he doesn't mind interracial love occasionally, but he has a very high vision and has not been able to find his own. The other half could only hold a small handkerchief and wait to die silently on the dragon island. Unlike the female dragons, Leopold didn't even bother to change his human form. When Yannick came to another dragon island, The precious Leopold has always maintained the shape of a silver dragon, with his body soaked in the lake and his head resting on the shore. As a giant animal, his two lantern-sized eyes are embellished with a pitiful look.

"Ah, Julia asked you to come," Silver Dragon lazily said. The arrival of strange humans did not arouse his interest, even if the other party was the future Pope. "I hate that female dragon. She doesn't have the gentleness of a female at all. No, it should be said that all the females on that island have no gentleness at all! As for the continuation of offspring, I'm sorry, I have no interest. I don't care if I have any offspring, I can't even find a male I like, what offspring are there, I don't like having children with those female dragons, I can't be hard on them!"

Listening to the endless chatter, the silver-haired priest couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. The Feng Shui here doesn't seem to be special. How could such a wonderful dragon be born?In his impression, the majestic and noble dragon clan who could fly clouds and rain has long gone with integrity.

Yannick: "Dear Your Excellency Leopold, Elder Julia recommended me to visit you because she knows that there is something in me that interests you, not about the heirs of the Dragon Clan."

Yinlong raised his eyelids and glanced at him: "Interested? No, I'm not interested in your type. I like tall, mighty, wise, and masculine. Of course, it's best to be a dragon, but I know There are no dragons in this world other than me, if the other party is as good as I just said, I don’t mind having an interracial love, it’s better than mixing with those female dragons.”

Yannick: "..."

Resting his chin with his front paws, the silver dragon continued to recall his dreamy past: "Oh, I once fell in love with an earl of the Sarat Empire, but it is a pity that he only has the lifespan of an ordinary human, and he has a lot of female companions , I don’t like that, so I left, now that I think about it, I’m really great, as a powerful Dragon Clan, I actually didn’t capture him to Dragon Island, but respected his wishes… But you are the pope, don’t you? In your Holy See, isn’t there a male who fits my aesthetics? You must know that I have high vision, and I don’t even look down on ordinary males.”

Yannick coughed lightly: "Priests are not allowed to have a partner. We serve the gods and never marry."

Silver Dragon: "Goodbye, I'm going to sleep, please leave my island immediately."

Yannick: "...but there are not exceptions. I know one person who should be very in line with your aesthetics, and he also happens to like males."

As if with a ding, Yinlong's eyes brightened, looking at the silver-haired priest with piercing vigour.

The priest whetted his appetite, so he stopped talking. He smiled and said, "Are you going to rest, then I'll come back to you in two hours."

After finishing speaking, he was about to leave, Yinlong stretched out his front claws to hook his clothes and dragged him back.

Yannick: "..." Lao Tzu's elegant demeanor!

Yinlong: "Honey, cough, what's your name? I didn't remember it just now."

Yannick: "... Yannick Hill."

Silver Dragon: "Oh, dear Yannick, tell me about that person quickly. As a noble dragon, I promise with my reputation that if the person you mentioned is in line with my aesthetics, I will do it to the best of my ability. agree to your request."

Yannick: "Dear Leopold, don't worry, besides the partner you are looking for, I also bring you some good news, maybe the pile of magic crystals is higher than your body, I don't know if you are interested?"

Magic Crystals = Glittering Treasures = That's one of Dragon's favorites!

Yinlong blinked the lantern eyes: "Of course, I am very interested, if you don't want me to go to the monster's territory to snatch it."

It seems that this male dragon is not particularly stupid. How could it be killed by the blood race to the point of extinction?

Yannick smiled: "Of course not, they are in the Dark Forest of Olin Continent. Although the Dark Forest has been occupied by monsters, sooner or later the allied forces of the mainland will take it back. After all, it belongs to our Olin Continent. Everyone, after the monsters are driven away, we can divide the magic crystal into two equally, and I am willing to share these wealth with you, dear Leopold."

Under the lure of the priest's eloquence, it is hard not to be tempted by Yinlong, whose two major weaknesses are firmly grasped.

"What agreement did you reach with Julia and the others?" Yinlong scratched his chin.

"I promise to help them find a way to continue the descendants of the Dragon Clan. In return, the Dragon Clan will send soldiers to participate in the war against monsters." In fact, with the shackles of the magic contract, Julia and the others are not worried at all that Yannick will go back on his word and retreat [-] steps Said, even if Yannick repents, with the ability of the Dragon Clan, he can go to Yannick to settle accounts and mess up the Holy See. This is the advantage of strong force.

Yinlong blinked: "Since that's the case, why did they let you come to me?"

Yannick: "Elder Julia believes that, as the only male of the Dragon Clan, you are stronger than any of them."

Yinlong proudly raised his head and let out a sigh of relief: "Of course!"

Yannick: "So I sincerely invite you to attend my coronation ceremony as a representative of the Dragon Clan."

Yinlong: "I can go with you, and the matter of the magic crystal can also be postponed, but the matter of helping me find a partner must not be delayed, and if the person you mentioned does not meet my aesthetics, I will run away immediately Come back, if Julia and the others want to come, let Julia and the others send someone!"

It is obviously impossible for Yannick to be deterred by such naive words. On the contrary, as long as the Dragon Clan is willing to show up, even for a second, the effect has already been achieved.

The above is the cause and effect of Yannick's "cheat" Leopold.

When the silver dragon descended gracefully in front of everyone's attention, it finally stopped on the square outside the Althea Auditorium. The baby stepped down, and then the silver body shrank rapidly, and finally turned into a beautiful boy wearing noble clothes.

Perhaps it was because the gap between the real body and the human form was too great. Everyone stared blankly at the silver dragon who looked like a weak and beautiful boy, and couldn't recover until the elf queen stepped forward and took Yannick into her arms, obviously still not excited. The elf baby who has recovered.

The silver-haired priest smiled slightly: "You are very welcome, Your Majesty, and thank you for lending Illus to me."

Her Majesty's smile was still so bright and gentle: "Illus always liked to be with you, I just fulfilled his wish, this time he can follow you to the Dragon Island, it is also a memorable passage for him journey."

The two exchanged short greetings, and soon, Fansherich led the group of silver-haired priests and walked into the auditorium. After all, today, the coronation ceremony is the highlight.

Those priests who were fortunate enough to witness the spectacular scene of His Majesty appearing on a silver dragon, except for a few of Gustav’s loyal buddies, even if they didn’t cry and lose their temper on the spot, they still felt a sense of pride and excitement. The eyes of the future pope will also become very different.

Originally, in many people's minds, Yannick Hill was able to be elected Pope, and it was really [-]% luck. If it wasn't for the support of Vanserich, if it wasn't just for Vanserich and Gusta Husband had a conflict, if it wasn't for Gustav's being too careless... In short, if it wasn't for all kinds of luck, how could he have taken advantage of it?

It is precisely because of this that the upper echelons of the Holy See initially had a negative attitude towards the coronation of the new pope. Except for Yannick's own die-hard supporters and Vaserich and others, many people took With a wait-and-see attitude, it is really embarrassing for them to face a young pope with no qualifications to lower his noble head!

This indifferent reaction was in stark contrast to those middle and lower priests who were elated after learning that Yannick Hill had been elected pope.

However, the coronation ceremony was held in the Papal State. No matter how happy the middle and lower priests were, they would not be able to celebrate here. Even if they came to the Central Holy See, they would not be easily allowed to enter.

Today, however, the reality slaps those who are not very loyal to the new pope, or who have not given their loyalty at all!

Among the aristocrats, the kings or rulers of the seven countries are all present. Among the mages, the saints of the law are also here. Even the elves and blood clans who are at odds with the Holy See, the former comes from the queen himself, and the latter is said to be older The current blood prince who is older than the Pope, a veritable generation of blood clan, knows with his toes that the reason why he is willing to come is definitely for the face of the new Pope, not the face of the Holy See.

Even if the old pope climbed out of the coffin now, it would be impossible for him to have such a big face, right?

Facing the cruel reality, those once arrogant people had to admit the status of the new pope.

The moment the silver-haired priest stepped into the auditorium, melodious singing reverberated everywhere in the auditorium. The members of the choir were composed of low-ranking priests from the central Holy See. Goddess, whenever the Holy See holds a major ceremony, "Light" is always a must play.

In the sacred and resonant libretto, as a temporary distinguished guest who had the honor of accompanying the future His Majesty the Pope, Yinlong suddenly tugged at Yannick's sleeve.

Yannick didn't stop walking, and turned his face slightly to the side, expressing a question.

"That man fits my aesthetics very well. I like him very much." Leopold, who has become a beautiful boy, doesn't know what reserve is, but he finally pays attention to keeping his voice so low that only Yannick can hear it.

"...Where is it?" Yannick didn't expect him to have a goal so soon.

"It's right next to that thin man in red. He's full of beards, tall, and also wearing red clothes. Well, I guess he must have a good figure under his clothes." Yinlong's eyes had already started to shine.

"..." You have good eyesight. "His name is Gustav, and he is a very capable cardinal, the one I told you, the one who likes males."

"Then I want him!" Leopold said firmly.

"Maybe he may have difficulty accepting you at first." Yannick reminded tactfully.

"It doesn't matter, I believe my enthusiasm and sincerity can move him."

"Okay, then after I become Pope, I will send him to serve in the Zarate Empire, but how to capture his heart depends on your own ability, dear Leopold."

"make a deal."

In just half a minute, the life of Archbishop Gustav was thus finalized.

It's a pity that he didn't know it yet, and he just looked gloomy at the pope's scepter that he had dreamed of but could never get, which was placed on the purple velvet shelf.

Vanserich had already stepped onto the high platform first, and the status of the former pope and crowned person was waiting for Yannick, which was also a novel experience for him.

And when the silver-haired priest was not wearing the Pope's robes, but just an ordinary robe and walked up the steps and walked towards the Pope's scepter, no one could take their eyes off him.

The long silver hair hangs behind him, intertwined with the sunlight to form a dazzling light. In just a few years, this extremely handsome priest has completed a span that many people can't achieve in a lifetime-from a famous The unknown priest directly boarded the Pope's throne.

Such a legendary story may not have happened before, nor will it happen in the future.

Under the solemn and sacred atmosphere, the silver-haired priest walked the last step, stood in front of Fansherich, and then knelt down in front of the statue in accordance with the rules of the coronation of the popes in the past. Next to him was holding a crown and a scepter, which was about to represent the goddess. Awarded to the new Pope.

The singing finally stopped and was replaced by the voice of the new pope.

"I, Yannick Hill, the successor of the Holy See of Light, solemnly swear today in front of the Goddess of Light, Orthea, that as the leader of the Holy See of Light, I will fulfill my duties and dedicate my life and everything to the existence and development of the Light." , until the end of life."

Here, in addition to taking the oath, the new pope also includes a procedure, which is to be recognized by the goddess.

When the oath is read, the idol will emit white light, which means that the successor is recognized by the goddess, and it also means that his soul is compatible with the divine consciousness left by the goddess in the world.

Of course, as far as Yannick knows, no matter what the character of the successor is, there has never been an oolong where the idol does not glow after the oath is read, so he speculates that the oath may hide a spell, and the spell can make the idol glow. If you admit something, you are spreading feudal superstition.

Therefore, after Yannick recited the oath, the idol also emitted a soft light as a response.

It's just that with the domineering appearance before, those who were lucky enough to witness the coronation ceremony of the previous pope had the illusion that the light seemed to be much more dazzling than last time.

"The scepter and the crown represent honor and responsibility, Yannick Hill, I hope you can fulfill your promise." Fansherich said, this line is also an inevitable procedure of the coronation ceremony.

"Yes, my life is with the Holy See." The silver-haired priest lowered his head slightly so that the gorgeous and extravagant crown could be worn on his head.

In an instant, the brilliant colors of gold and silver and the glare of the sun almost blinded everyone. But when Yannick Hill got up and took the scepter, people suddenly had a feeling: as if this The diadem has waited for millennia for its best owner to appear.
