"The former saintess..." A certain cardinal who was confused was still holding on to the former saintess.

"She is here, can she still grow wings and fly?" In all fairness, Bishop Felipe never believed that the former saint would associate with the devil. After being elected as a saint, she rarely left the Pope's country, so Felipe was more inclined to be someone who hung the devil's contamination on the former saint.

It's just that the former saint has nothing to do with most people in the Papal State. Even the Pope himself can't figure out who would harm her, or what benefits it would have if he harmed her.

"If when we are talking, the devil in the city has a new target, and then expands the circle of victims, can everyone here block the news in time like the saint who fainted for no reason, so as to avoid causing panic?" Bishop Felipe seemed I grew up a lot during Obstar's Royal City Rebellion, so I am not as cynical as I was when I was young, but I learned to cut into the core interests of others to achieve my own goals.

"If the former saintess can disappear out of thin air under the guard of the two knight commanders, then the future of the Papal Kingdom is worth worrying about." Bishop Felipe subconsciously softened his tone after sternly, making a "I'm all for the Pope" For the sake of the country's future" expression: "It's just my personal selfishness, I don't want Sister Johanna (former saint) to be accused of 'having an affair with the devil'."

"You're right." It was rare for the pope to stand on the same side as Bishop Felipe. After all, out of all the people present, the pope would be held accountable for "not knowing people clearly".To put it even more exaggeratedly, even if this matter can have a good ending, the Pope will not be able to get rid of the previous infamy, so under the premise of losing his old face, the less accountability, the better.

"It is a troubled time right now, and the Papal State, as the hub of belief in the south, naturally cannot make such a big mistake." After a simple balance of interests, the Pope agreed with Bishop Felipe's proposal, but he also took into account the face of other bishops in other aspects : "In any case, the saint fainted because of the collision of Sister Johanna (the former saint). Do you want to deny this?"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the former saintess pursed her lips tightly, and after a period of inner entanglement, she actually stretched her brows, and said calmly: "Yes, I don't deny this. Because no one approached the saintess at that time except me. "

"Then reduce the crime to 'accidentally contaminated with the breath of the devil, and then collided with the saint'." The pope is very satisfied with the knowledge of the former saint, because the sooner this kind of scandal is naturally resolved, the better.

"As for the others... Considering the special circumstances at the time of the incident, and the fact that it is not easy to make a big fuss at this stage, they are temporarily exempted from accountability." The Pope also plans to hold a 'Saint Parade' earlier to avoid The installed Obsidas had wiped out Cantero's old background, so they pardoned those service personnel in the purification tower as the former saint wished.

"As for you..." The pope glanced at Bishop Felipe and the cardinal, and under the nervous eyes of some people, announced the punishment for the former saint: "Since you have been influenced by the devil, then accepting the punishment of the gods After purification, they should not remain in the Pope's country."

"Yes." The former saintess had long been prepared to be deported. After all, for such a serious crime, the Pope would like to show her affection, which is already a great gift: "I have no complaints about your punishment, just Thank you for your kindness."

"Wait, she committed such a big thing, you just expelled her?" A cardinal who was obviously from Cantero asked on the spot: "Even the saint, after having an affair with the devil, should be Sentenced to be burned at the stake or imprisoned for life."

"...Your Excellency, were you asleep just now?" Although the Pope has reached an alliance with Seys of Cantero, he doesn't like the fact that the Cantero people are still wantonly installing in the Pope's country after taking the title of saint. manpower.

This is simply the rhythm to take him out of the way.

"The starting point of Bishop Felipe and I is the safety of the Pope's country and the reputation of everyone here." The Pope's voice was very calm, but he could hear a trace of unhappiness: "Rules are dead, but people are alive. Or say Do you think the Pope's state is decided by the saint, not me, the Pope?"

This can be said to be very embarrassing, and I almost pointed at the other party's nose and cursed, "Do you Cantero people want the saint to replace me?"

Facing the pope's anger, the cardinal also understood that now is not a good time to fight against the pope.

Because Cantero has not yet ended the war with Obstar, Seyes reminded these cardinals from Cantero to maintain a good relationship with the Pope.

"...I see, please forgive my gaffe." The cardinal who was born in Cantero sat back unwillingly, and then secretly forgot Bishop Felipe at an angle that everyone could not see, full of Anger and unwillingness on the face.

After this incident, the pope didn't know whether his alliance with Cantero was useful, but in front of everyone, he still didn't show his confusion, but added to the former saint: "Except for being deported , from next month, the Pope will also cancel your retirement allowance and confiscate all your income in the Pope... Do you have any objections?"

"No." The former saint didn't care about these extraneous things.Since most of her property was spent on orphans adopted by the Temple, or the dying elderly, the Pope could not confiscate much from her.

"For the sake of safety, I suggest that Lucius or Glisa be in charge of the purification ceremony of Sister Johanna, and then send her out of the country." Bishop Felipe breathed a sigh of relief, so he said casually: "We know about this matter. The fewer people there, the better, and the devil has already infiltrated the Pope's country, so it is the best arrangement for the two Templar leaders to send Sister Johanna away."

The pope knew that Bishop Felipe was worried that someone would abuse the former saint by chance.After all, there are everyone in the Pope's country, and those who don't know the former saintess are likely to presume that the former saintess committed a felony, or they want to get something good from her, so let Lucius or Glisa Only by sending him away can Bishop Felipe feel at ease.

As for how the former saintess should survive after being sent out of the Papal Kingdom... Bishop Felipe decided to write a letter to Mariana to see if his niece could find a position for the former saintess in the temple of the Principality of Brittania.

Considering that the Principality of Britannia has not completely banned the study of black magic, and that it is separated from the Papal State by the Principality of Aquique and the Little Inner Sea, the former saintess should be able to live a relatively stable life there.

"That's it!" The Pope didn't want to take over this matter, let alone make any mistakes later, so he gave Bishop Felipe full responsibility for the arrangement of the former saint.

But after they left, Abela, who was in a nervous mood, stopped the Pope who was about to leave, leaving a clear tooth mark on his lower lip: "Your Majesty, is Sister Johanna okay? Will she be severely punished? "

The Pope looked at this troublesome woman, and felt that Seyes was really capable of finding such a "wonderful flower" from the huge Canteroli.

"This is not something you should ask." Out of worries about Abela's double business, the pope didn't want to answer Abela's question at all, and just wanted to leave quickly.

However, just as he wanted to bypass Abela, the latter blocked the pope's way first.

"Your Majesty, please tell me what happened to Sister Johanna? I'm really worried about her." Abella thought the Pope was trying to alleviate her guilt, so she said relentlessly, "I also express my condolences to Lucius and Lord Griza asked about Sister Johanna's condition, but they didn't say anything..."

"If you really think about Sister Johanna, don't get entangled here." The pope has had enough troubles one after another, and even wonders if he has recently angered the god of fortune, which has caused him to have a rather rough life.

"Remind you, the Papal Kingdom needs a saint, but it doesn't need a saint who causes trouble." The pope glanced at the person who took care of Abela, and under the other's nervous gaze, he warned mercilessly: "Be careful of the saint, Otherwise, you won't be so lucky next time."

"Yes." The nun in charge of the purification tower heard what the pope meant, and knew that the priests in the purification tower and the accused former saint would all be able to escape unscathed.

However, behind this relatively happy ending, it was Seyes' anger that he wanted to fly to the Papal State to strangle Abela to death.

Although Marianne has never fought in a war, she has watched many documentaries in her previous life, plus her experience in playing strategy games, so she is very aware of the importance of intelligence warfare and attack time.

According to Seyes's assumption, the Papal States should pull up the banner of the Virgin's parade before Obsta's official counterattack, and then force Mariana to suspend the counteroffensive plan and hold peace talks with Cantero.

Even after receiving the news that Mariana would become the queen of Obstar, in order to allow Cantero to fight in the Three Kingdoms League, he still had a sigh of relief under the face-riding output, deliberately risking the bankruptcy of the treasury, and went straight to the Obstar's southern belly.

After all, the more towns he takes now, the more beneficial it will be for future negotiations.

As for whether these cities can be kept after the capture... It can only be said that Seyes has not yet been naive enough to understand that most of the towns that have been captured will be returned, and at most they will use this to blackmail Obsta and even The Grand Duchy of Aquique made a fortune, and then acquired the city connected to Obsta and Cantero.

only……

The dream is beautiful, but the cruelty of reality gave Seyes a fatal blow.

If Abella hadn't stepped in, maybe Seyes would be [-]% sure that Mariana would back down in the negotiation.However, the Papal State was so disturbed by Abela that it directly added nearly a week of attack time to Obsta, and within three or four days, it completely destroyed Cantero's advantages.
