Your Majesty, the Spectacle Has Missed the Country!

Isabel left cheerfully.

But not long after, Will Roach and Mike came together.

Since the birth of Protestantism, Mike, who was originally the Cardinal of the Eastern Diocese, has transformed and completed his magnificent transformation, becoming the Pope of the Protestant Church with the support of Bruno.

However, this also caused the responsibilities on his shoulders to more than double, and even the daily pressure increased a lot.

This was not because he was worried about the attitude of the church, but because he was busy preaching in Hagia Sophia.

Anyway, the new religion has been established, and the guardians of the faith have also been established. How do you like it? Come and beat me if you can?

When the time comes, we will see how powerful the Crusaders are, and they are still the most powerful army of the Principality of Idar.

Anyway, Mike is full of confidence in the strength of Idar's army.

And when it comes to the spread of faith…

Perhaps it is due to the missionary bonus brought by the "Guardian of the Faith", or perhaps it is due to the propaganda of "Idar Daily", the chaotic situation in the interior of the empire, and the generally poor life of the people in this era and the peace of the Principality of Idar The huge contrast between comfort and comfort,

The spread of Protestantism in the eastern part of the empire went smoothly without any hindrance.

As more and more refugees are accepted by the Principality of Idar, more and more believers of the Church of Light will of course flock to this land.

but……

No matter how sincere their faith is in the Church of Light, believers will be shocked when they see the Hagia Sophia standing on the land of Solonborg for the first time.

No believer has the courage to say no to Hagia Sophia.

Just like no one can say no to a swimming pool or a jacuzzi, it's the same thing.

When believers from afar see the majestic Hagia Sophia for the first time, they will have an extraordinary sense of respect and intimacy for the clergy living in this land.

As for what’s next…

As the Pope, Mike will do his best to detail the sins of the Church of Light and elaborate on new doctrines, so that believers who are originally confused by some of the practices of the Church of Light can understand the advantages and disadvantages between the two.

What Bruno did not expect was that with the efforts of Mike and all the Protestant clergy, even the Conte Territory located outside the Principality of Idar, the west of the Valens Plains, and the northern part of the Kingdom of Basel... these were related to Idar. In the land bordering the Principality of Dar, Protestants gradually appeared.

As for Will Roach…

Although he was once a legion commander in the Crusaders, in the Principality of Idar, Bruno Stuart, Duke of Idar, was the supreme commander of all Idar armies.

No individual other than Bruno is allowed to have a private army, including the Crusaders.

And Protestantism is naturally no exception.

As for the reason given, it is also very simple.

Who is Bruno?

He is not only the ruler of the Principality of Idar, but also the "Guardian of the Faith" of the Protestant religion. Therefore, since Bruno has an army in his hands, that is enough.

There is no need for anything like the Crusaders.

Apart from wasting people and money and increasing the burden on the people, it will not have any practical effect.

Therefore, since he has defected to the Protestant religion, Will Roach, who was originally the commander of the Holy Army, will naturally have to change his position.

so……

Will Roach wears three hats.

At the same time, he was appointed as the minister of the Ministry of Evangelization of All Peoples, the Ministry of Canonization of Saints, and the Ministry of Contemporary Doctrine. He is responsible for conveying the virtues of goodness and beauty to the people, and encouraging people to use their own hands and labor to change their lives.

But it is only an appeal. Protestantism can only promote its own doctrines among believers within the framework allowed by the Law of Idar, and the doctrines mentioned are only appeals, not mandatory constraints.

As for these three departments, as soon as you hear the names, you know that they must not be in the original Church of Light, but... this is a Protestant church after all!

Not only do the doctrines need to be new, but the institutional settings also need to be new, so it is quite reasonable to carry out a little secular reform.

Moreover, most of the clergy are not full-time. Under Bruno's request, Mike's screening of clergy was very strict, and even the vast majority of them had to engage in production activities within their capabilities.

otherwise,

Could it be that the Protestant religion that was born in the Principality of Idar, like the Church of Light, raises a lot of bastards who just wait to die and waste air? !

This is something Bruno will never agree to, and it is absolutely impossible to agree to it!

Bruno's attitude towards Protestantism is actually very simple.

If there are too many clergy in the church, it will inevitably become a financial burden on the principality over time.

Therefore, the Government Affairs Office of the Principality of Idar not only sets a clear upper limit for the number of churches in each administrative region, but also encourages people to pray briefly before going to bed or before meals.

All in all...as long as you have faith in your heart, that is enough. As for the ritual of collective blessing and blessing, it is even more economical.

after all……

Every labor force in the Principality of Idar is extremely valuable, and Bruno wishes he could only have Mike and Will Roach among the Protestants!

It is precisely because of this consideration that although it has been established for a long time, the total number of clergy in the entire Protestant church does not even exceed a hundred, and this number even includes those responsible for cleaning the church. Aunts.

It is precisely because Bruno has always imposed strict restrictions on religious expenditures. Although the tithes paid by the people to the church have been reduced or reduced, there is still a lot of surplus.

This part of the tax revenue was directly allocated by Bruno to the fiscal revenue of the Principality of Idar to support the development of medical care, education and other welfare undertakings in the Principality of Idar.

"Is there another letter from the Light Church?"

When he saw Mike and Will Roach coming together, Bruno couldn't help but ask.

Due to the extremely busy missionary tasks in the Principality of Idar, Bruno has not seen these two people recently, so he made some guesses.

The reason why he asked this was because the Church of Light had previously sent many letters to Mike and Will Roach, with the purpose of determining whether the birth of Protestantism was a rumor or a fact.

after all……

This is the first time such a thing has happened since the establishment of the Church of Light.

This undoubtedly made all the clergy and believers of the Light Church feel confused.

To know,

When the news of the establishment of the Protestant Church in this land in the eastern part of the empire was carried to the interior of the empire by business travelers, almost everyone in the interior, not to mention the Church of Light, became excited, whether they were nobles or civilians.

A cardinal of the Eastern Diocese appointed by Cardinal Camus Blanchard not only detailed all the evil deeds of the Church of Light in the lands in the eastern part of the empire, he even went so far as to establish a new church in the Principality of Idar. A whole new religion.

Is there anything more outrageous than this in the world? !

This is even more unacceptable and unbelievable than the Odin Empire crossing the Forest of Warcraft.

It is said...

When Cardinal Camus Blanchard heard the news, his nose was twisted with anger.

To know,

Mike is a cardinal appointed by the Cardinal himself, and Will Roach is also an outstanding leader of the Crusaders in the Church of Light.

But whether it was the bishop sent out or the bishop's regiment commander sent out to investigate, the two people actually formed a united front in the eastern part of the empire, and they all stood in the Protestant camp.

If we send people to Idar Principality again...

Although the behavior of the two people was a complete trampling on the dignity of the Church of Light, the power possessed by the Principality of Idar made Cardinal Camus Blanchard have to think twice because... In addition to military power, As a trade-off, he must also consider the risks that continuous nesting dolls bring to the church.

If another person is sent to the Principality of Idar and then assimilated by the Protestant Church...doesn't this mean that the Protestant Church is more advanced than the Church of Light?

Where does this put the light of the Church of Light?

"This is not..."

Mike said truthfully: "Since the reply you wrote was sent, there has not been another letter to us from the Holy City of Bethlehem, and the Church of Light has suddenly become much more stable."

Hearing this, Bruno couldn't help but chuckle and said: "That's true."

Bruno's letter actually did not use any particularly ups and downs tone or punctuation, nor did it make any blatant threats, but...his reply gave the Church of Light a great shock.

For example...

In a calm tone, Bruno mentioned in the letter the cause of death of the former emperor of the Norman Empire, Raphael Alexander, and the Odin Empire's raid on the Norman Empire...

Besides that, there are many, many more.

A large part of this content was not announced to the public by Bruno!

so……

As long as Cardinal Camus Blanchard is not a fool, the Church of Light will not press too hard on the Principality of Idar given the current chaotic situation in the interior of the empire.

"what is that?"

"Actually...it's some news about the Augures area."

After a moment of silence, Will Roach, who was standing behind Mike, finally raised his head, looked at the Duke in front of him, and spoke proactively.

"Ogu...Leis?"

Bruno is very familiar with this name.

Or……

The reason why the Principality of Idar was able to become a necessary place for commercial exchanges between the Norman Empire and the Kingdom of Basel was largely due to the Baiogures region.

The Augures region, also known as the Augures region, is located at the junction of the Norman Empire, the Kingdom of Basel, and the Principality of Sidon, covering an area equivalent to three-fifths of the Principality of Idar.

No matter which country it borders, there is a long border line.

only……

Merchants who used to travel between the Norman Empire and the Kingdom of Basel would rather choose to go all the way north, passing through the Principality of Idar, or all the way west, crossing the Principality of Sidon, rather than choose to go from the closer Augure. Sri Lanka area passed.

And the reason is very simple...

Although the chaos in the interior of the empire has made the people of the Norman Empire miserable, if compared with the Augures region located on the border of the three countries, today's Norman Empire can be said to be a well-organized and prosperous country.

If Bruno were asked to describe the Augures region in one sentence, it would be "the Golden Triangle of another world, the Little Middle East of the mainland."

Chaos, and not just any chaos.

The Augures region has long been famous throughout the interior of the empire, but... it's not a good reputation.

This land is inhabited by all kinds of thieves, bandits, and criminals. In the early days, they not only often robbed caravans, but also used extremely cruel methods.

In addition, most of the Augres region is actually located in the vast desert in the northwest of the Principality of Sidon. Its special geographical location and special climate environment make the Augres region a famous place on this continent. A place of no concern.

only……

Although the surrounding countries don't care, there are people who do, and this "person" is... the Church of Light.

I don’t know since when, the Church of Light began to release the Crusader Legion in the Augures area on the pretext of “letting people with sinful hearts feel the care of the God of Light.”

The Crusader Army, which is affiliated to the Church of Light, has become the only legion stationed in the Augres area.

"What happened to the Augures area?"

Bruno couldn't help but straighten his body and motioned for Mike and Will Roach to sit down and talk.

"Before I became the commander of the Crusader Army, I followed the Crusader Army and was stationed in the Augures area. I also performed tasks of transporting grain, grass and supplies into the desert."

As he spoke, Will Roach gradually showed an expression of reminiscence.

"Since joining the Protestant faith, I have actually been thinking about some of the things I have seen in the holy city of Bethlehem and everything I have experienced, so something strange caught my attention."

"oh?"

Upon hearing this, Bruno suddenly became interested: "Keep talking, this is very important to Protestantism and the Principality of Idar!"

Will Roach nodded and continued:

"In my opinion, the reason why the Church of Light stationed troops in the Augures area is definitely not just for the lame reason of "spreading faith", and it is definitely not as simple as it seems.

"Although before this, the Church of Light has been publicizing their achievements in the Augures area, letting everyone know that they punished the murderers and saved the people... Maybe the church has done these things, but this is absolutely not the case. Not the main purpose of the church!

"Otherwise, with countless Crusader soldiers, how could it not be possible to build a decent safe zone? Why would the caravan always avoid the Augures area?

"The reason why other countries and forces don't care about it is undoubtedly because the cost of governance is too high, the desert area is vast, and there are no noble fiefdoms, so they let that land go their own way and are unwilling to interfere.

"But you have to know that although it is not as good as the Idar army, the Crusaders with their faith are enough to be regarded as one of the strongest armies in this continent, and can even be compared with the most elite soldiers in the Norman Empire!

"If you really want to quell the chaos in the Augures area, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net can rely on the strength of the Crusaders... let alone stationed on that land for nearly a hundred years, even if it is more than ten years The effort is completely enough!

"Before I came to the Principality of Idar and came into contact with the Protestant religion, I had doubts about these, but they quickly dissipated. After all... I was just the most ordinary member of the Crusaders at that time, and many of the decisions of the Church of Light were It’s not something I can learn about either.

"However, after seeing the Idar Principality's policy of recruiting refugees and the love of civilians and serfs for you, I suddenly realized that if the church really wants to save those people living in dire straits, the church can completely act like You also build refugee camps to let the suffering civilians find another way out!

"So...perhaps because of my faith, I was blinded by the Church of Light before."

Bruno frowned slightly and said, "But, this seems... doesn't mean anything, does it?"

Hearing this, Will Roach looked into the Duke's eyes and said seriously:

"That's because... you don't know how much money the Church of Light spends on food on that land!"
