Tomie's Unlimited Journey

"Burn them!

"Burn these witches! Stooges of the devil!"

"Burn them quickly!"

"Burn them! Burn them!"

"Your Majesty Bishop, please let me be the first to add fuel to the fire!"

"No! Please let me come!"

Around the square, crazy people cheered and taunted wantonly, and some even wanted to go up and burn these sinners in person, so that after that, they could have more talking points or be respectfully called witch killers or something like that. Honorary title.

Some people mingling with the crowd also threw small stones and rotten eggs on the stone platform, as if they were heinous devils.

But they didn't care at all whether the four people on the platform were guilty or not. The years of killing and brainwashing by the Holy See had made them no longer want to think about it. As long as it didn't concern them, then the Holy See must be right, and they must be sinners. The unforgivable villain.

In a large number of trials, the priests have accumulated quite "rich" experience in judging witches. They have even published special books. The general content of the books is to tell others that once they are recognized by the church, it will be useless no matter how you argue. …

If the defendant leads an immoral life, then this certainly proves that she has dealings with the devil. And if she is pious and behaves dignifiedly, then she is obviously pretending to use her piety to divert people from her dealings with the devil and attending night parties. The suspicion of the coven. If she appears frightened during interrogation, then she is obviously guilty, and her conscience has exposed her. If she believes she is innocent and remains calm, then she is undoubtedly guilty, as witches are accustomed to do just that. Shamelessly lying. If she pleads guilty to the accusation brought against her, this proves her guilt. If she is frightened, despairing, dejected, and silent about the accusation, this is direct evidence of her guilt. If an unfortunate woman is If the tortured person rolls her eyes in agony, it means that she is looking for her devil with her eyes. And if her eyes are dull and motionless, it means that she has seen her devil. If she has the strength to stand up, If she cannot bear the torture and dies under the torture, it means that the devil allows her to die in order to prevent her from confessing or refusing to confess. Reveal secrets.

These conclusions are actually quite ridiculous. No matter how you argue and resist, as long as they identify you, you can only be a witch. In other words, regardless of any performance or reaction of the person being tried, he will be judged as a witch and be sentenced to death.

Conrad has been the Bishop of Port Semen for more than 20 years. From the lowest missionary to the position of bishop, he became one of the many Mediterranean bosses in the church. The evil witch Dodo died under him. Hundreds of people, and today four more evil people will die in his hands. Every time he is executed, he will pray for the witches. Even if they are evil people with unforgivable sins, he is still willing to pray for their evil souls.

How noble I am, such a noble self should sit in the position of archbishop...

After Conrad finished praying, he walked down the high platform and came to the four evil men kneeling on the ground. He smiled kindly at first, raised his hand to signal the cheering people to quiet down, and then looked at the trembling people with their heads lowered. Four people, a trace of imperceptible mockery flashed in his eyes.

The man in front of me is naturally not a witch or a wizard. He is the descendant of a down-and-out noble. He is actually just a name. He runs a tavern to make a living. These three witches are actually hiding.

Dressed as a waiter in a tavern, he secretly performed a ritual to communicate with the devil in hell.

"Karl, do you have anything else to say now? The crime of harboring witches is not a light one. Are you sure you still want to defend them?"

Conrad asked in a deep voice. If Karl hadn't had a noble title, why would he have asked such nonsense? He would have been killed long ago. Although the church has great power, the aristocracy is not a vegetarian. It will kill a nobleman at will, even if

Even a nobleman who is almost as poor as a poor person must be handled with caution. Once someone with an intention to catch him gets caught, Conrad will be in trouble.

He really didn't want to deal with this nobleman, but this man was too stubborn to take the hard way, so he could only hold a public trial in order to minimize the nobles' backlash.

The holy judgment of the Holy See will never back down because of a down-and-out noble!

This is the most important point, and it is related to his promotion path.

"Master Bishop, they are not evil witches, they are just ordinary people. Please let them go."

The disheveled Karl said firmly that he, who was over thirty, had experienced the ups and downs of the world since he was a child. He fell from a wealthy aristocratic family to the bottom of the valley. He used the little inheritance left by his parents to come to Semen Port from the mainland and open a restaurant.

In the tavern, he has always been kind to others and helped many people. He bought these three girls from a passing slave merchant. Their miserable life experience reminded him of the difficult days of his childhood. They were said to be servants, but he was more

Treat them like daughters.

The people in the crowd who had been helped by him in the past looked excited and had no intention of helping him at all, but this was reasonable, although it was a bit disappointing.

"Hey, Karl, you are really blinded by the devil. It seems that only God can release your blinded eyes."

Conrad pretended to lament that he did not even look at the three crying girls, because for them death was absolute. As for the trial, it had been completed long ago. He only needed to do it in front of the big audience.

Just execute him.

He took out a full bottle of holy water and poured it on Karl's head. The clear water followed the dirt on his body and turned into black sewage.

"Did you see it? This is the ironclad proof that you were deceived by the devil!"

Conrad poured it on the heads of three jet-black girls, and the holy water also turned into sewage. He shouted to everyone in the audience, "See! This is the ironclad proof of witches! Holy water given by God."

It’s all stained black by them!”

"Burn them!"

"Burn them!"

The spectators in the audience were even more furious at this moment, with their fists raised in the air and eager to come up and execute him personally.

Conrad was very satisfied with this perfect effect. He nodded and raised his hand to signal everyone to calm down.

"Look at the final fate of these evil witches. Their wails will be the best warning to the devils in hell, but God is always kind. As long as you are pious enough, even a fallen soul like a witch can be redeemed!!"

"And you, Karl! You will be hanged in public!"

All that was left was to tie the witch to the cross and light the firewood piled around her.

Conrad was very satisfied with what he just said, and he waved his hand to signal his men to start the execution.
