[West Fantasy] The noble lady who was divorced became rich

Chapter 108

In Glisa's words, Lucius has a mysterious confidence in Mariana, and this confidence appears a little bit in the eyes of outsiders, especially those who know Lucius a little bit. is not normal.

Especially in the eyes of the sensitive Pope, who had broken his vows a long time ago, Lucius' abnormality forced him to think in a direction that attracted people's imagination: "Your feelings for the Duchess of Brittania amaze me... ...If only my children could trust each other like you and the Duchess of Brittania."

"..." Lucius didn't understand what the pope was causing the trouble with, but after what happened just now, he had let go of any expectations of the pope, and instead regarded him as the enemy of his mother and sister: "If you If there is no other order, I will go down first."

Taking into account the expenses of the temples in various places and the learning process of the saints, Lucius calculated that the Pope can only start the parade of the saints in two to three months at the earliest, and before that, Mariana must win Obsta the throne or expel the Canteros, or else...

"Okay, you go down first!" Since Lucius could not be persuaded, the Pope would not continue to waste time on him, so he made a very tired look.

After Lucius left the Pope's office, he let go of his clenched fist and found a deep crescent moon imprint on his palm.

"She should be okay!" Lucius asked in his heart.

As a result, before he could entangle himself, Griza approached him with an anxious expression on his face: "Go to the purification tower quickly, something happened to the saint."

Lucius didn't have time to worry about the dispute between the Pope and Marianne right now, so he had to follow Grisa to the purification tower where the saint was.And when he arrived, the mentor-level priests were still rescuing the comatose saint, and took care of the former saint.

"What are you doing?" Lucius had served the former saint before he became the head of the Southern Templars, so it was clear that this was a serious and pious woman, and she would not treat the current saint at all. , that is, Abella from Cantero made an offensive move.

"Your Excellency, please forgive us for doing this, but except for Sister Johanna (the former saint), no one knows what the saint did before she fell into a coma, and what unclean things she saw." The priest responsible for guarding the former saint The personnel had also served the former saint, so they were polite to her. They did not put the former saint into prison after Abela fainted inexplicably, but guarded her in a room beside her.

In this regard, Glisa and Lucius can't make any accusations. After all, the person who took care of the former saint did the following operations out of duty, so they can only hope that Abela can wake up as soon as possible, and then return to the hospital. The former saint is innocent.

"Can I go see Sister Johanna?" Lucius knew that he couldn't do anything here, so he asked the nun who managed the purification tower: "Grisa and I have been loyal to Sister Johanna, so He and I will go to see Sister Johanna, and we may be able to ask more questions."

The nun who managed the purification tower had also taken care of the former nun, and even had a friendship with her for 15 years, so at Lucius' request, she showed a very complicated expression, and finally said softly: "You only have 10 minutes, please Quick battle."

"Yes." Lucius heaved a sigh of relief, and went to the next room with Griza without much delay.

There, the former saint was holding a string of rosary beads with a pale face, letting the tough strings press her white fingers into frightening marks, reminiscent of a hanged neck.

However, if the former Saintess was found guilty of murdering the Saintess, what awaited her would not be merciful hanging and beheading, but even more serious...burning.

Like dealing with witches.

Hearing the sound of the door moving, the former saintess firmly suppressed the action of wanting to take a defensive posture, and after she saw who was coming, she breathed a sigh of relief, immediately untied her tight shoulders, and calmed down as much as possible Said: "Are you here to interrogate me on behalf of His Majesty the Pope?"

Even though the saint pretended to pretend nothing happened, Lucius and Griza could still hear the trill in her voice.

"No, I believe you won't do anything to hurt the saint." Lucius said bluntly, "I know exactly what kind of person you are."

Having said that, Lucius knelt down on one knee to avoid oppressing the former saint who was sitting: "It is absolutely impossible for a woman who is willing to dedicate herself to the gods after leaving the position of reverence." Associated with evil."

"..." The former saintess pursed her lips tightly, and the guard in her eyes retreated a little, but it was not enough for her to completely trust Lucius.

"Nun, we just want to know what happened before the saint fell into a coma, otherwise you will be charged with terrible accusations and the most severe punishment." Griza, who was guarding the door, beckoned to Lucius that "5 minutes left." "Clean up, and then said to the saint: "You should know that most of the people here believe in you, otherwise you would not be guarded to the side room."

If Lucius is a sincere show of favor, then Glisa is a mistaken type.It would be better if he didn't mention other people. When he mentioned other people, the former saint could not help but worry that her situation would harm those who subconsciously favored her.

Especially the nanny who manages the purification tower.

"Snapped!"

Because the previous saint was too hard, the rosary in her hand fell to the ground, played irregular music on the ground, and hit the former saint's calf.

"I hope you can tell us the truth." Lucius counted the time, letting a drop of cold sweat slide down his temples.

The former saint finally let go of her bruised hand, and whispered bitterly, "It's the evil god."

"..."

At this moment, both Lucius and Glisa couldn't help opening their eyes wide, suspecting that they were hallucinating.

"I saw Abela communicating with the evil god." The former saint could not regard this woman who betrayed the gods as her successor, the saint whom the Papal Kingdom relied on, so she trembled all over: "She tried to pull me Into the camp of the evil god... So after I shouted for help, the evil god cast a spell to make her faint, and then left the Pope's kingdom..."

"It's impossible." Lucius vetoed reflexively: "Other countries are fine, but the Pope...the Pope is..."

Before Lucius could finish his sentence, the former saintess was already in tears: "If I could, I wouldn't believe my eyes."

It's a pity that before she had time to express more emotions, the door of the room was opened by the nuns of the purification tower, and behind her were the guards of the Inquisition Bureau.

"Excuse me, Your Excellency Griza, Your Excellency Lucius, and this... former Her Majesty the Holy Maiden." Although the guards of the Inquisition Bureau had room for address, they were more ruthless than the nuns of the Purification Tower. , Even after saying hello, let the guards behind him take down the former saint.

"Wait." Griza immediately stopped the guards who wanted to make a move, and then explained: "I don't care what you find out, but for the sake of the reputation of the Papal State, don't be rough with Sister Johanna, let alone Don't cause a big commotion, understand?"

If it was just Griza who warned, perhaps the guards of the Inquisition would not take it seriously, but with Lucius watching, they had to weigh the importance of these two.

After all, Transia has always been the head of the Northern Alliance, and Lucius's sister is about to become the master of a unified power, so the Papal States will need these two to deal with each other for a long time to prevent the great powers from recurring. The outbreak of war.

"You're right, we should take into account the face of the Papal State." The leader was not an elm-headed person either, and stopped the person who wanted to grab the former saint with his backhand after Grisa's voice.

"Sister, please!" The leading guard made a respectful gesture to the former saint, but the others just looked like "don't embarrass us".

"Thank you." The former saintess took a deep breath and almost fell when she got up, but was caught by Lucius quickly.

"I will visit you regularly to prevent them from punishing you." Lucius said while supporting the former saint.

"No need, this is a test given to me by the gods." The former saintess knew very well what would happen if she had an affair with the evil god, so she didn't want to involve Lucius and Grisa.Because these two are very upright people, those who favor her need the help of Lucius and others more than her.

Besides, Lucius and the others have a good future, and they don't have to pay a lifetime price for an ordinary nun.

The guards of the Inquisition didn't bother to purify the other people in the tower after the former saint put on handcuffs.

However, when the former saintess was about to step out of the room, Abela, who had just woken up, shouted, "Wait."

This time, both the guards of the Inquisition Bureau and the former saint turned around, waiting for Abela to give a reasonable explanation.

"She...she is a good person, please don't make things difficult for her." Under the eyes of everyone, Abela just opened her mouth and said something specious, remembering the evil god's instructions.

[You have to remember that the price of having an affair with me is being burned at the stake.However, the former saint has a very high reputation in the Papal State, so as long as you insist that she was unintentionally contaminated with the breath of the devil, causing you to be knocked unconscious, then the Papal State will at most sentence her to exile or life imprisonment, absolutely A former saint would not be executed without risking her reputation. 】

The evil god lowered Abela's psychological burden with a bewitching voice: [Anyway, you are a saint, and there will always be a chance to lift the punishment of the former saint, right! 】

"..."

[For the sake of the future of demons and human beings, you cannot abandon your identity as a saint, let alone be condemned by the pope and cast aside by the people. 】

【Abela, I believe in you, and you should also believe in yourself. 】
