Chapter 200

Go back a few days ago...

In the cathedral in the center of Niceburg, Bishop Elvis led a prayer that had just concluded.

After the bishop gave his usual speech, the clergy dispersed.

Bishop Elvis, who had looked calm just now, now had a solemn expression.

He came to the cafeteria and prepared to have dinner.

In fact, with his status, he could order the kitchen to prepare meals for him alone.

But except for special periods such as illness, Elvis always insisted on eating a big pot of rice with ordinary priests in the cafeteria. This is also an important reason why he is so popular.

He sat down where he had always been, and the church servant set the plate before him.

Elvis picked up a hard-boiled egg and banged it on the table without stopping.

A priest next to him was very surprised. The bishop's egg was almost broken, but he didn't notice it, as if he was thinking about something.

"Lord Elvis? Lord Elvis?"

The priest gently pushed Elvis's arm to wake him up.

"oh……"

Only then did Elvis realize that the eggs in his hands were about to break.

"Lord, forgive me."

The bishop regretted his waste of food. He carefully peeled off the broken eggshell bit by bit and finished the boiled egg in small bites.

The priest on the side looked at it with great admiration. The bishop was really strict with himself.

Another priest came over in a hurry. He came to Elvis and whispered, "Lord Anthony is back."

"I understand. Get a breakfast and send it to his room and ask him to wait for me there."

"Yes, Lord Bishop."

Elvis ate faster, and in a short time he had wiped out everything in front of him.

After thanking the Lord of Light for giving him another sumptuous dinner, he got up and walked to Anthony's room.

Anthony, who had just finished his own dinner, received him in the room.

Elvis said with a guilty look on his face: "Lord Anthony, I accidentally let a witch go. I really failed in my duties as a bishop."

Anthony was very confused: "What happened? Tell me slowly."

Elvis looked troubled, as if he didn't know how to speak.

After a long time, he said slowly: "Something happened when we were transferring the witch last night."

"Last night? Did you meet a wolf?"

Anthony was referring to the unusual howling of wolves at night. It was estimated that there were many wolves on the roads outside the city, and there was a high probability that the team escorting Dame Fanny would encounter a wolf pack.

"Yes, after a whole night we didn't receive a call back from the escort team. As soon as day broke, I sent a team to the church to find out."

"But we found a lot of traces of wolf activity on the road, as well as...the bones of the people we sent out yesterday, all of them..."

"May their souls ascend to heaven. That witch also..."

"She escaped! Her bones were not found at the scene! It seems that the escort team was attacked by a pack of wolves, and the witch took advantage of the chaos to escape, but I don't think it is that simple!"

Elvis shook his head and said: "It must be that witch! Some witch must have used evil magic to summon the nearby wolves to attack our escort team."

The more the bishop spoke, the more he gritted his teeth. He now believed that the strange movement of the wolves last night was caused by the witch Fanny.

"Otherwise this evil witch would have absolutely no reason to survive alone."

Anthony said with a little pity: "So, we can't do deals with the Principality of Eton?"

Elvis was a little crestfallen, "Yeah! It's really hateful. Are we just going to watch an anti-church alliance form?"

Anthony comforted him: "Don't blame yourself too much, Lord Bishop. Even if the Principality of Eton obeys us, the effect they can have is limited."

"I know this. In fact, my unwillingness is mainly to let the witch go."

While the two were talking, a voice came from outside the door: "Is Mr. Elvis here? I have something important to report."

"Lord Anthony, I'll come as soon as I go."

Elvis got up and went outside the room. He came back a moment later.

But there was a look of shock and anger on his face now.

There is no mistake. One post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, one read!

"Lord Anthony, I just received a report. The Eaton embassy announced that they found Dame Fanny - that damn witch really ran back! The news they made public was that they intercepted the kidnapper of Dame Fanny outside the Eaton Guard City. Gang of gangsters!"

Anthony thought thoughtfully: "It seems that what happened last night was not simple."

Elvis looked around anxiously: "This must be related. The gangster group Eaton claimed may be our escort team - it is possible that Eaton's escort was also on that road last night."

"Ahhh! I should have guessed it a long time ago. The Etonians must have known that their Baroness was a witch, and had learned of our plan in some way. Together with the evil wolves summoned by the witch, they attacked our escort. Team!”

Elvis started to think about it.

Anthony asked him: "Your Majesty, what should we do now?"

Elvis raised his voice: "What else can we do? Of course, we should tell the story of the witch and let the whole world know the truth. Let the people know that the royal family of Eton is sheltering an evil and filthy witch."

Anthony shook his head, "My Lord Bishop, I advise you to calm down. When Lady Fanny is in our hands, we can always make public the evidence that she is a witch, but she is not in our hands now. If we unilaterally declare that she is a witch, it will cause big trouble. Especially at this time when the relationship between the church and the countries of the Horn Bay is so tense."

Elvis snorted, "Those rulers who are greedy for money! So what, the people are on our side."

"Oh, the position of the common people is the most unreliable. They will sing the glory of God today, and shout long live the king tomorrow!"

Elvis stopped talking. He looked at the flame on the candle, as if thinking about what he should do next.

"My Lord Bishop, instead of breaking with the Principality of Eton right away, it is better to do something else first. I think this is more important."

"What else is more important than destroying the evil wizard?"

Anthony showed a solemn expression and uttered a word: "Eliminate the traitor!"

"The traitor?"

"Yes, you just said that the Principality of Eton may have known our plan in some way."

Elvis stood up.

"If you hadn't said it, I would have forgotten it!"

He had a cold look in his eyes.

"There must be fallen people in the cathedral who have abandoned the teachings of God and plunged into darkness!"
