Lord of Glory

After laughing, Paladin had just sat down on the chair, smelling the special fragrance coming from the candlestick behind him, and was about to drink the red wine as a courtesy. Andrew put down the knife and fork in his hand, suddenly interrupted Paladin's movements with a smile and said: "Paladin, I'm planning to let Canalava concurrently serve as the pastor of this parish. What do you think?" "Oh! "

Upon hearing this, Paladin put down his wine glass and looked at Canalava with a surprised look. The position of pastor. It is the priest who takes charge of the entire diocese when the bishop, auxiliary bishop, and assistant bishop are absent. Daily activities, masses, sacrifices and festivals are also managed by the chief priest. To be honest, it is the job of a great steward.

But don't underestimate this position. There is a lot of oil and water that can be fished out of it! Not to mention too much, just the candles, bread and red wine required for mass every weekend. That number is too huge! Although the individual value is not high, if you buy it in batches, as long as a part of it is deducted and pocketed, it is still worth ten gold coins! What's more, for sacrifices to Enos or festivals, banquets and activities held in the square in front of the church will cost you at least a hundred gold coins! For the powerful but poor abbot Canalava, this is simply a piece of cake!

Paladin instantly understood what Andrew meant. It was hoped that Kanalava would be given the approval vote as an auxiliary bishop when he was appointed to concurrently serve as pastor. After all, this position is different from that of auxiliary bishop. Auxiliary bishops can be appointed directly by the bishop, but the chief pastor is elected by all the priests in the diocese! In other words, when dissatisfied voices arise, Paladin has to take charge, so that on the surface Canalava also serves as the chief priest, which is what everyone expects. Let those who are interested have nothing to say. This is equivalent to sending a mission to Paladin. It is the first task to see his ability to do things.

Paladin nodded clearly, then smiled and said to Canalava: "Dean, don't worry, I, Paladin, am firmly on your side. I believe other priests will also admit it because of a little reward that can improve their lives. Dean, your prestige." The words were a bit direct, but Kanalava also hoped not to beat around the bush. He immediately nodded expectantly. He drank another glass of red wine and said, "It is said that there are no nuns around you, auxiliary bishop? There are many devout nuns with good qualifications in my place who are dedicated to God. Just ask when it is convenient!"

Both Paladin and Andrew understood what this qualification meant. Both size, beauty and loyalty. Paladin naturally wanted to rope in a few beautiful nuns to explore the mysteries of humankind. But his basement and the humanoid materials that come and go cannot be exposed. Having a woman around is a ticking time bomb. He reluctantly declined the kindness, waved his hand and said: "Forget it, nun. I'm used to living alone."

Andrew and Kanalava were stunned for a moment, then looked at each other and suddenly burst into laughter! When Paladin was laughing so hard that he didn't know what to do. Canalava smiled with a "you know me" expression: "No nun, auxiliary bishop, you want a boy? It seems that our hobbies really coincide with each other!"

Upon hearing this, Paladin's hair stood up all over his body! Listening to Kanarawa's words, this guy doesn't like women, but likes boys? ! For Paladin, this is really weird. However, in order not to leave a bad impression, Paladin still smiled awkwardly. Let these two powerful guys burst into laughter.

"Paladine, I'm going to hand over the two towns of Qiqilar and Faramir to you. Of course, you are still the religious town under your management. You know what I mean." After laughing, Andrew smiled slightly. I was eating beef with squinted eyes when this sentence suddenly came out. Paladin immediately understood that Qiqiral and Faramir were the two iron towns that were comparable to Alba. Many of its subordinate villages also engaged in iron smelting. These are unified and put under the control of Paladin, hoping that Paladin can continue the achievements of Fuba and take advantage of the war to make another war fortune!

But it's difficult, because most of the businessmen in these ironworks are backed by nobles or knights. You can't get angry, you have to win over. But there is no limit to Paladin. He knows his own abilities best. Not to mention how easy it is to kill someone, it is also easy to frame someone. And these people above are not big shots. At most, they are just some knights and knight lords who cannot be hereditary.

As long as it doesn't go too far, there's nothing they can do. The higher-ups above, such as Earl Torch, would not pay attention to these trivial matters. In other words, Paladin's real opponents are just jazz or knights. What is he afraid of? They just killed Sir Amit’s family this morning!

"Don't worry, Your Excellency, the donations raised by believers will definitely satisfy you!" In other words, the gold coins will definitely increase, so don't worry and give them to me! "Okay, okay!" Andrew shouted happily. Picked up the knife and fork again and ate the meat. He suddenly realized that this roasted meat, which was somewhat boring to eat, had a strange delicious taste today. What is that delicious thing? That is the joy of getting what you want.

Paladin felt relieved when he saw the two of them eating. Cut a small piece of beef and smell the faint aroma of spices and meat. Put it into your mouth in one mouthful, chew it a few times and swallow it into your stomach. Feel the soft texture and the aroma of the gravy. Paladin immediately couldn't help but nodded and said: "It's delicious!" After saying that, he forked another piece and was about to put it into his mouth when something unexpected happened!

Suddenly, Paladin's face suddenly turned deathly pale! When Andrew and Kanarawa, who were about to make fun of him, saw Paladin's appearance, they immediately stood up and asked, "Paladin, what's wrong with you?" He stood up, covering his mouth with his right hand, rushed into the toilet at the corner, and vomited into the toilet with a loud sound!

"Paladin, what are you..." Andrew and Kanalava rushed over. Immediately, he saw Paladin with a very bad expression lying on the toilet vomiting. He even vomited out his bile! A scent filled the room. This is the smell of that barbecue! But there is not even a trace of the sour smell of stomach acid that should be there! Paladin's face was ugly, but he was even more shocked! He felt as if his stomach was on strike, like a burden in his body. The function has completely stopped!

Suddenly, Paladin thought of the dream that incorporated light elements not long ago! Yes, that black baby dragged itself into the circle of Gluttony! For more than a day, Paladin had not eaten any food. And there is no feeling of hunger at all! "I should have discovered it a long time ago, I should have discovered it a long time ago!" Paladin's face showed a solemn expression. At this moment, he didn't care at all about the strange looks in Andrew and Kanalava's eyes. He realized in his heart: "Seven deadly sins. Is this the price of gaining power? If this continues, am I a human or a monster? Am I still the Paladin I thought I was? Who am I...!"
