Chapter 239
Rin looked at Albert with disdain: "Oh, so he is a useless person who only cares about his position and does nothing. I thought so."
Being scolded by Rin again, Albert was extremely angry. He could not spit back because of the appearance of the eldest prince. He just said: "The only clue at the moment is him. According to the guards' report, he had close contact with the prisoner and was holding something in his hand at the time. What do you plan to do, Your Highness?"
Rin bared his teeth at him: "Then you will arrest me?"
"If it weren't for you... Do you really think I don't want to arrest you?! Your Highness, did you see that this man is so rampant because of his status? Maybe the thing is on him."
"Shut up."
Sylvester glared at Albert fiercely, and looked at Rin with a kind and friendly look.
"My classmate, that thing is indeed very important. If you accidentally got it, please return it. Don't worry, I know you have nothing to do with the wanted criminal."
Lin's attitude was arrogant, and his words were still unyielding: "Oh, so you just listened to someone's casual words and insisted that the thing was in my hand? My gem tie clip was lost, and that bastard was closest to me just now. I suspect he stole it. Hand it over."
Young Master Lin has a temper. He is soft-hearted and not hard-hearted, unless he is much harder than him.
Although the thing is indeed in his hand, the two people clearly have no evidence, and they have determined it based on a vague sentence from a guard, which makes him angry.
The two of them, one playing the good cop and the other playing the bad cop, really think that this young master is as stupid as Ryan?
Lin refused to cooperate, and Sylvester's eyes flashed with a cold light. He was so kind, but this guy didn't give him any face at all. This dandy and arrogant look is disgusting.
On the contrary, the princess who had been standing aside without saying anything looked at Lin and Sylvester with a playful look.
"Classmate, do you mean that the thing is not in your hand?"
"Nonsense, I can be regarded as an accomplice just by holding a bag of cookies. If you have the guts, you can arrest all the bakery!"
"You... don't rely on you being a noble of Giorar to be so rampant in the Holy Empire." Albert was so angry that he jumped up and down.
However, Lin still crossed his arms and looked disgusted: "It's the same for you. I don't know who jumped out to ask for scolding first."
Sylvester's face twitched. No matter how good his temper was, he could become a powder keg in front of this arrogant young man.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Ryan quickly stood up.
"Phoenix, speak properly, Xier is obviously helping you."
"Help you."
Lin was a little desperate about Ryan's IQ, rolled his eyes, and was too lazy to explain to him, and spread his hands directly.
"Anyway, that thing is not with me. I've finished. When will the meal start?"
"Phoenix, you are so rude."
At this time, Vice Dean Shen Yang had to stand up, scolded Lin, bowed to Sylvester and said: "Your Highness, Phoenix classmate is just angry because he was slandered, please forgive me."
Sylvester smiled: "After all, he is young, so it is understandable that he is arrogant, but now..."
As he said, his eyes met with Albert, and he closed his mouth.
Albert stood up and said: "He is the most suspicious, and I hope he will cooperate with the investigation."
"It's not a good thing to delay everyone like this." His Royal Highness thought, "Phoenix... Little brother Phoenix, let's go to the back, you just need to let Albert check the storage device, and then I will personally invite you to dinner to make amends. What do you think? Everyone is still waiting for dinner, don't hurt the harmony."
"I don't think it's a big deal." Lin refused directly.
Are you kidding? If we really find a piece of metal in his ring, who was he showing off his strong attitude before?
"Your Highness, I think he has something to hide!"
"My ring is full of treasures. Why should I show it to you? What if you want to steal things and then argue with me? I still say that if you have the ability, just arrest me directly. If you don't have the ability, don't delay my meal!"
At this time, most people present felt that Lin was too arrogant.
Whether it was good or bad, he was domineering, worthy of being the first evil young man in Giorar.
But not long after he finished speaking, another stern voice came from the door, accompanied by a strong aura that swept the whole place, and the air temperature dropped sharply.
Xiye put his hand on the hilt of the sword, straightened his back, and walked in with his head held high. His red eyes were cold at all. The whole person was like a sharp sword emitting sword energy, and also carrying a trace of piercing murderous intent.
"Who? Dare to touch my brother?"
Chapter 21 The 600-year agreement has come, welcome the Son of God back to his position (fog)
Xiye looked straight ahead, walked delicately in front of Lin, and protected him behind him.
Lin leaned sideways and poked his head out, whispering: "Why are you back?"
"I'm a little worried."
Xiye said simply, then looked at Sylvester and Albert, holding the hilt of the sword, gently pulled it out, revealing a cold light.
"What do you want to do?"
Sylvester's expression froze, and for a moment he was actually shocked by the aura of the Sword Saint, and his smile was a little unnatural: "Miss Xiye, no one forced your brother, there is a little misunderstanding here."
The students began to whisper, and no one knew who started it. Soon, Xiye's identity as the Sword Saint had spread, and everyone's attitude became respectful.
Such a beautiful girl with extraordinary temperament and magnificent appearance, as dazzling as a flower on the high mountain, with the title of Sword Master on her head, her appearance and strength will always make people yearn for her.
Of course, if Emilia had been present, she would have received no less enthusiastic looks than this.
Having said that, the students all know about the brave men participating in the competition, and they are eager to see his face. Unfortunately, they don't even know who they are until now. The people at the Royal Academy of Gioral have been tight-lipped.
Xiye ignored the new group of fans and just said two words in a cold tone, "Misunderstanding?"
"Yes, it's a misunderstanding. It's just some official business that I want your brother to cooperate with, but your brother is reluctant no matter what."
Xiye didn't listen to what the eldest prince said, but turned her head and looked at Rin: "Brother, have they bullied you?"
Lin leaned his head out sideways, looked around with a smug look, and touched his chin.
"These guys want to search me!"
Elbert almost choked with a breath: "Who wants to search you? We just want to see if you have any secrets in your storage device... Well, if there is any physical evidence for a certain case!"
Lin had someone to back her up, and her already arrogant attitude was now even more out of control. She said, "Can anyone search for my space ring?"
Hearing this, Xiye nodded and said in a tone that left no room for doubt: "Please don't disturb my brother."
He spoke a lot more politely than Rin, but the meaning was the same.
Sylvester's expression turned even more ugly. No matter how well-educated he was, he couldn't hold back at this moment.
A trace of worry flashed in the corner of Elbert's eyes, he pondered for a moment, and suddenly stood up: "So, the great swordsman, wants to protect his younger brother? Phoenix, you deny it in every possible way, I have every reason to suspect that you are related to this case. "
"Oh, don't you suspect that it has something to do with me? A toad's egg was stolen on the roadside and I suspect it was me. I still have to explain it, don't I?"
Elbert sneered: "I will report to Your Majesty immediately and submit a letter to Queen Gioral, but before that, I have the right to control and supervise the trouble. Please go back to your room. Where are you in the near future? Don’t even travel.”
Good guy, are you going to show your face and force yourself?
Rin narrowed his eyes slightly. Although he himself acted a little suspicious, as a lawless young master, he could explain it reasonably, but the other party's behavior seemed really wrong.
As soon as he came in, he directly labeled him as a comrade, and he could be said to be a cruel official. When he showed his identity, the other party was not completely sure, but he was still so unrelenting, and even did not hesitate to tear his face. What does this mean?
It means that that thing is more important than his official title, and he is now planning to put all his money into it.
Maybe Rin is just the beginning. If nothing is found on him, students in the entire academy will have to investigate, and the impact will be even greater.
As the Security Department, he is the person responsible for supervising the case. Unless it is a national secret, it is impossible for him to insist on causing a serious diplomatic incident and insist on his own way.
But if it were really a national secret, the two of them had previously acted like one was a good person and the other was a bad person, hiding it, which made Rin feel very inconsistent.
It makes sense to say that he is worried about exposing secrets to other countries, but Rin still feels suspicious.
Rin was a little curious, and suddenly felt that things were starting to become interesting, and wanted to go back now to see what the cube was.
At this time, Xiye's expression did not change, and she just said: "My brother still wants to participate in the competition. Let me see, who dares to imprison him?"
The sword master girl stared at Elbert with a stern gaze, unable to hide the look in her eyes that wanted to kill someone.
Elbert was so stared at that his whole body shivered, and he felt that if he dared to do this, this woman would really do it.
The atmosphere suddenly fell silent, and the tense feeling of suffocation made everyone dare not say a word, as if accidentally making a sound would turn into a fuse and cause blood to flow into a river.
People who knew Rin did not think that Yuye was so decisive for her younger brother, but thought that it was to maintain the dignity of the Phoenix family.
Those who don’t know each other are impressed by their deep brother-sister relationship.
Just when the atmosphere had dropped below freezing, another voice sounded at the door.
"What's going on? It's so scary."
Everyone looked at the door and saw a group of clergymen wearing monastic sacrificial robes. The sacrificial robes of the two leaders were even more solemn and luxurious.
This is really a scene where you sing and I come on stage, one after another, which makes the teachers, students and attendants in the restaurant feel a little numb.
The two leading clergymen, one with a face like a coffin lid, looked very stern, while the other smiled and was very easy-going.
The two of them walked in together, and the officials and attendants belonging to the Holy Empire who were present quickly knelt half down and put their hands in front of their hearts, looking pious.
Even the eldest prince and Elbert lowered their heads and bowed to show respect for the visitor.
The Holy Empire is a religious country. Among the rights of the country, the imperial power is the highest, but in terms of belief, the church is also supreme. It is precisely because of this belief that the empire is extremely stable.
The church would not interfere with the emperor when nothing happened, but the emperor also had to show sufficient respect to the church.
If we have to divide it, one is in charge of political affairs and the other is in charge of cultural beliefs. The former has greater power to govern, while the latter has the support of the whole people and is the spiritual support of everyone.
As for the military, in addition to the guarding knights, the church also has an entire army, and the soldiers of the Holy Empire also believe in the church. It is really hard to say who is more effective than the other. .
Over the years, the church and the royal family have been interdependent but also had subtle conflicts.
But no matter what, most of the time the interests are the same.
"Met Webster and Archbishop Bai Tu."
The visitors were none other than the two platinum archbishops of the church, but they had no time to pay attention to anyone else right now.
Bai Tu walked up to Lin in three steps and two steps. After saluting, he said, "Your Highness, why are you here? We thought you would be in the palace."
Rin rolled her eyes and thought to herself, "Who told you to walk so slowly? How can I enter the palace even if I don't have proof of identity?"
Of course, this incident was actually caused by him leaving in advance in a hurry.
When Webster saw Rin, his stern face immediately became incomparable. He looked at him like he was looking at his grandson who was the only son of the ninth generation.
"Your Highness, it's been a hard journey. Come with us to meet the emperor first."
Rin crossed his arms and turned away his face, looking unhappy.
But when Webster and Bai Tu said "His Highness", everyone looked at each other, a little confused.
Sylvester felt a little bad in his heart and asked: "Two archbishops, your highness...are they in agreement?"
Bai Tu patted his head and said with a smile: "Look at my memory. I was just looking for His Highness. I forgot to mention that this Rin Phoenix is the Holy Religion chosen by the goddess... No, His Highness the Holy Son, the only one in the world. ”
Webster looked even more proud and honored: "Six hundred years after the last saint chosen by God, the great Holy Light girl has once again sent down her grace! Your Highness Rin is also the first Holy Son in history!"
Sylvester was a little dumbfounded, and Elbert beside him was even more speechless.
"God...chosen by God, the Holy Son? What the hell?"
"Be bold!"
Webster's eyes were like daggers, and he raised his staff high and pointed it directly at Elbert: "Are you insulting the Holy Son?"
Elbert's face suddenly turned pale, and he knelt down quickly: "I am too shocked to speak without hesitation. I hope you will forgive me."
It took Sylvester a long time to understand what Webster said.
In other words, this guy who looks extremely arrogant and needs a beating, with a face that says he is evil and has the ability to bite me, is actually the God-chosen Saint... Bah, Holy Son?
Since an ordinary saint is called Your Highness, her status in the country is equal to that of the prince, and her influence outside the empire is even greater. After all, the word saint has entrusted the people's long-cherished wishes.
However, the key is not the saint or the saint, but the two words chosen by God in front of it.
In a human civilization where divine power outweighs all, the people chosen by the Creation Goddess are just like the goddess’s messengers in the human world. It is conceivable that their status among humans is not limited to the Holy Empire.
The Chosen Saint has not appeared for six hundred years, which is also the main reason for the decline of the church's influence. Now that she suddenly appears, it means that the church will expand greatly and spread the belief in the goddess to the entire world again.
The teachers and students present from Wanjing Continent were not very clear about the history of the Holy Church, but they were confused because of Lin's new identity.
But how could the believers in the Holy Empire's own country not be clear about this?
The first person to react was the receptionist, who was already on the edge. He was trembling with excitement and went straight to worship him without saying a word.
"Your Highness the Holy Son, please give us the radiance of the goddess!"
Others also woke up from a dream, including the guards who came later, and all fell down.
Some students didn't know why, so they knelt down half-kneeling, and were pulled up by the classmates next to them. They were still scratching their heads and felt very confused.
