Lord of Glory

"Look, you are the priest who is about to become the priest of the church. You are actually a noble! Welcome, servant of God, our brothers and sisters. Welcome to this big family."

These words are extremely elegant. Anyone who doesn't understand the situation will think that this priest is the real nobleman. Paladin was a little stunned. This rumored cruel and ruthless executioner of the Vatican was so polite to a lowly priest! It was beyond his expectation. I thought this person would be dismissive and ignore me. This is of course the result that Paladin wants to see most.

With such beauty, not only the mercenaries around him were dumbfounded, but even the third-rate girls were blushing and eager to come forward and hug the priest and give him a good kiss. But this is just thinking in my head. If you really want to do it, you may not know how you will be treated. The clergy of the Holy See clearly stipulate that they are not allowed to touch women.

The handsome priest suddenly froze, shook his head helplessly, and whispered piously: "I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Maurice. I am the CEO of the Sixth Inquisition Hall of the Holy Vatican. These brothers and sisters, It's an honor to meet you." "Uh, oh..." Paladin couldn't recover. Morris, who is in a high position, is a little weird about his kindness. Let Paladin not be able to tell what the other party wants to do. You can only follow his train of thought.

At the same time, Paladin secretly clicked his tongue. This Morris claimed to be the CEO of the Sixth Court of Justice. It is known from the manuscripts of dead priests that the Inquisition was divided into two departments. One is called the Judge's Hall and the other is called the Judgment Hall.

The former is responsible for catching and killing heretics, while the latter is responsible for approving and recording heretics. In the tribunal, there are a total of thirteen tribunal halls. In other words, in the tribunal, there are only twelve people at the same level as Morris! One can imagine how huge this person's power is.

Morris, who was smiling, suddenly stared at the silver cross on Paladin's chest, the only thing left to him by his unmasked parents. Suddenly he said with a smile: "Priest Paladin, the cross on your chest is very unique. Can you take it off and show it to me?"

Paladin, who suddenly felt something was wrong, had no choice. He took off the cross with a smile and handed it to Morris's hand. "Hmm~ Very interesting thing. Where did you get it?" Although Morris smiled brightly, Paladin only felt a heart-breaking coldness running through his body. He lowered his hands and crossed them subconsciously, avoiding Morris's eyes, and said indifferently: "It's nothing, but I got it from a wandering ascetic before. If Lord Morris likes it, just take it."

"No, no, no, thank you priest for your kindness." Morris laughed and returned the Paladin cross. Hearing this, Paladin was secretly relieved. And what a coincidence, the old man with a face full of joy came in from the back door happily while looking at two big bags of flour cakes and holding six pots of water in his hand. When Morris saw the dry food arrived, he immediately crossed his hands and clenched his fists piously and said: "See you later. May the Supreme God of Light bless you at all times."

"Bless you too." Paladin returned the greeting hurriedly. But Morris turned around, holding bread and water with the five executives in each hand. Open the door and leave.

The potential danger was over, and Paladin just wanted to raise his hand to wipe the thin beads of sweat on his forehead. Morris, who was walking at the end and was about to step out of the tavern, suddenly stopped, turned around and suddenly shouted: "Paladin!" "Ah? Sir Morris called me? But is there anything else that I need to do?" "

This sudden loud shout made Paladin tremble all over. Fortunately, his real name was also Paladin, so he raised his head and looked at Morris without any hesitation. He immediately started talking in a pretentious manner. Morris looked at Paladin's reaction and suddenly laughed harmlessly, stretched out his hand to put on his hood, and said nonchalantly: "It's nothing, just kidding you."

After that, he left the tavern. He and his five companions got on the pure white tall horse, a horse roar sounded, and the six of them galloped away with a puff of smoke. Until it was confirmed that Morris and others had left, Paladin's face instantly darkened. If you look carefully, you can still find it. The hands half exposed in the sleeves were trembling rapidly!

"Maurice, did he find out that I am a fake? He should have noticed it, but there is no definite evidence or reason. Even he himself does not believe in his guess. That's why he left so easily. What's more, There is branch work waiting for them, so why waste time on an unknown priest?"

Paladin, who was thinking this way, saw the old man coming over in a flattering manner. It wasn't because he saw that he had close contact with CEO Morris that he became interested in trying to win over him. Suddenly, Paladin felt an unknown fire raging, and the mask he had been putting on was taken off at this time: "Old man! Take me to the room quickly!" The old man was stunned, but he saw Paladin's face was gloomy, and he said: He waved his sleeves and went straight up the stairs. Although the old man felt unhappy, he did not dare to say it openly. He showed a fake smile and followed him...

At this time, Morris and his party were riding wildly. The direction of travel is towards the branch of the Free Masons that Paladin finally escaped from! A tall executive running wildly beside Morris saw the calmness and thinking under Morris's hood. He couldn't help but leaned forward and asked in a low voice: "Chief, what's wrong with you?" "That priest named Paladin is very suspicious..."

When the tall executive heard this, he immediately lowered his head and waited. Because he knew Morris and would tell him in detail. Sure enough, Morris' deep voice passed through the roaring wind and reached the ears of the executive: "Through the test just now, it was confirmed that his name is Paladin. It doesn't seem to be a fake. But it's strange Yes, a priest who is about to take up his post as a church priest doesn’t even understand the etiquette of meeting a priest! It’s really strange.”

Not to mention whether Paladin would be so frightened that he would fall to the ground if he heard this. But I heard the tall executive say indifferently: "It's nothing, sir. You also heard that he is a noble. Maybe he just spent money to buy a position. He didn't enter the monastery for systematic study at all. ." Morris waved his hand and said immediately: "Let's not say whether he bought a priesthood, but the cross on his chest was only worn by the executive officer of our Inquisition to bless the holy purification cross. There is no reason why he would be a monk from an ascetic. You can buy it there.”

The tall executive was a little surprised, but unexpectedly Maurice continued: "Moreover, when I talked to him, his forehead, palms, and back were sweating. When he asked for the cross, he avoided my sight, holding his hands Cross. A very obvious self-protection action." "Then, what is it?" Hearing his subordinate's question, Morris looked up at the white clouds covering the blue sky and murmured: "He is too nervous... "
