Lord of Glory

Chapter 77: The Confusion of Power

Laughing, Paladin just sat down in his chair, sniffing the deliberate scent wafting from the candelabra behind him, and was about to drink the wine as a courtesy. Andrew put the knife and fork in his hand, suddenly interrupted Paladin's action with a smile and said: "Paladin ah, I am going to want to let Kanarawa also serve as the head pastor of this parish, what do you think?" "Oh!"

When Paladin heard that he put down his wine glass, he looked at the smiling Kanarawa with a surprised expression. The position of the head pastor. It is the priest who takes over the entire diocese when the bishop, auxiliary bishop, and assistant bishop are not present. The usual activities of mass, sacrifices and festivals are also managed by the head pastor. To be honest, it is also the position of a big housekeeper.

But don't take this job lightly. There is a lot of oil and water that can be fished out of it! Not much to say, the light is the mass every weekend, the candles, bread and red wine to be used. That amount is too large! Although the individual value is not high, but buying in batches, as long as a part of the income is deducted from it, it is also worth ten gold coins! What's more, for sacrifices to Enos or festivals, the banquets and activities held in the square in front of the church cost at least one hundred gold coins for one scrape! For the powerful, powerful but poor abbot Kanarawa, this is simply fat on his lips!

Paladin instantly understood what Andrew meant. It is hoped that when Kanalawa is appointed as the head pastor on the bright side, he will get a vote of approval as an auxiliary bishop. After all, this position is different from that of an assistant bishop. The auxiliary bishop can be directly appointed by the bishop, but the head priest is elected by all the priests of the diocese! That is to say, when there is a voice of being out of group, Paladin will come to manage the ups and downs, causing Kanarawa to act as the head priest on the surface, which is what everyone expects. So that even those who have a heart have nothing to say. This is equivalent to sending a task to Paladin. It is the first task to see his ability to do things.

Paladin nodded with understanding, then smiled and said to Kanarawa: "The abbot need not worry, I, Paladin, am firmly on your side. I believe that the other priests, too, will recognize your authority, Dean, because of the little bounty available to improve their lives." The words were somewhat direct, but Kanarawa also wished not to beat around the bush. He immediately nodded his head expectantly. Drinking a glass of red wine again, he said, "It is said that the auxiliary bishop does not have any nuns around you yet? My place has many pious nuns with good qualifications and a heart for God. Just ask when it's convenient!"

.

Both Paladin and Andrew understood what this qualification meant. It was all about body, beauty and loyalty. Paladin naturally would love to pull up a few beautiful nuns to explore the mysteries of humanity. But his basement and the humanoid materials he came and went with could not be exposed. Having a woman around is a ticking time bomb. So he reluctantly declined the kindness, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, the nun will be spared. I'm used to living alone."

Andrew and Kanarawa faintly froze, looked at each other and suddenly burst out laughing! They laughed when Paladin was at a loss for words. Kanarawa with a you-know-what expression laughing: "No nuns, auxiliary bishop do you want boys? It seems that our fetishes really coincide!"

Hearing this, Paladin's hair stood on end! Listening to Kanarawa's words, this guy doesn't like women, but boys? For Paladin, this is really a bit weird. But in order not to leave a bad impression on people, Paladin still smiled awkwardly. Let these two powerful guys burst out laughing.

"Paladin, I'm going to give you all the two towns of Qiqilal, Falamo to be in charge. Of course, Nurba is still the church town you manage. You know what I mean." Laughing, Andrew slightly squinted his eyes eating beef, and suddenly came out with this sentence. Paladin immediately understood, Qiqilal and Falamo are two out of the iron town compared to Nurba. The villages under them also have more ironmaking. These unified Paladin in charge, is the hope that Paladin can follow Nurba's achievements, take advantage of the war to make a war fortune again!

But the difficulty is that most of the merchants in these ironworks are backed by nobles or knights. You can't anger them, you have to win them over. But that's no limit to the Paladin. He knows his own abilities best. Not to mention how easy it is to kill a person, it is also easy to plant evidence and frame someone. And these people above are not big people. At most, there are some lords and knights who cannot be hereditary.

As long as it's not too much, they can't do anything about it. The upper echelons, such as the Earl of Torch simply will not pay attention to these small matters. In other words, Paladin's real opponents are only knights and some nobles. What is he afraid of? This morning, he had just killed Sir Emmet's family!

"Don't worry, Your Excellency, the donations raised by believers will definitely satisfy you!" That is to say, the gold coins will definitely increase, so don't worry about giving them to me! "Okay, okay!" Andrew yelled very comfortably. Once again he picked up the knife and fork to eat the meat. He suddenly found that he is somewhat tired of eating roast meat, but today there is a strange delicacy. What is that deliciousness? That is the joy of getting what you want.

Seeing the two of them eating, Paladin felt relieved. He cut a small piece of beef and smelled the fragrance of spices and meat mixed with it. And put it into his mouth in one bite, chewed it a few times and swallowed it in his stomach. Felt the soft texture and the aroma of the gravy. Paladin immediately couldn't help but nod and said: "Delicious!" After finishing speaking, he forked another piece and was about to put it into his mouth, when an unexpected thing happened suddenly!

Suddenly, Paladin's face suddenly went dead white! Andrew and Kanarawa, who were about to laugh, saw Paladin's appearance and stood up with a sense of urgency and asked, "Paladin, what's wrong with you?" "Umm." Paladin only felt a flip of the stomach bag, suddenly stood up sharply, the right hand deadly covered his mouth, rushed into the toilet at the corner, and vomited out into the toilet!

"Paladin, are you…." Andrew and Kanarawa rushed over. Immediately saw the extremely bad-looking Paladin lying on the toilet vomiting. Even bile water had been vomited out! The room was filled with a scent. It was the aroma of that roast meat! And the sour smell of stomach acid that should have existed, but not a trace of half! Paladin's face was ugly, but his heart was even more shocked! He felt as if his stomach had gone on strike, as if a burden existed in the body. The function had completely stopped!

Suddenly, Paladin thought of the dream of merging light elements not long ago! That's right, the black baby dragged itself into the gluttonous circle! And for more than a day, Paladin didn't eat any food. And without any hunger pangs! "I should have discovered it long ago, I should have discovered it long ago!" Paladin's face showed a dignified expression. At this moment, he didn't care about the strange eyes of Andrew and Kanarawa. He realized this in his heart: "Seven deadly sins. Is this the price for gaining power? If this continues, am I a human or a monster? Am I still the Paladin I thought I was? Who am I...!"
