Chapter 139 – 139 – Hyde Gives Away “The Village of Back Alley Nymphs”! # One
139 – Hyde, giving away “Village of Back Alley Nymphs”! # 1
I shouted clearly to Kusan again amidst thunderous applause.
“Kusan. I excommunicate you!”
Excommunication.
It was the highest punishment the church could impose.
Those who were excommunicated lost the right to pray to God and the right to participate in the Holy Communion.
Those words were a warning that the soul would be forever branded a sinner and destined to burn in hell.
In some ways, it was a punishment of the highest order, more terrible than the death penalty of death.
Of course-.
Actually, I didn’t believe in things like ‘excommunication’.
There is no way it would be possible for a person to take away the right to pray from another person.
However, Kusan was furious and trembled like someone who had stepped on a stinging thorn.
“Hyde! You bastard! I am the Pope! It’s King Kushan! By what right do you dare to excommunicate me! How dare you! Hyde! Yes this guy!!! You fucking orphan!!! A scum-like commoner!!! I am excommunicating you!!! “You are excommunicated, Hyde!!!”
“Don’t use too strong words. “You look weak.”
When a person is really pushed into a corner, their personality is ruined.
Of course, like Psyche, some people show their true value like a shining pearl only when they are cornered -.
Cusan was a sordid little person that it would be shameful to compare her to Psyche.
I didn’t even expect it in the first place.
“Gold-plated knight Naib. Take Lord Cusan with you.”
I gave an order while looking at Kusan, who was struggling on the floor.
Naive, the Red Knight of the Rose Order, protested to me, “You, you bastard, at most a silver plate priest, give me orders?”
“Hyde!”
“Priest Hyde’s victory!”
“No, this is the victory of the righteousness of the Lord Elohim!”
Clap clap clap-.
While so many people were clapping and chanting my name, the rank that was hanging around my neck seemed to no longer matter.
If I had Archibald’s paladin Alter, I could have easily solved the problem.
I wanted to appoint Alter Archibald as the “Platinum Knight” Of the new female church queen Lucy.
Because I need someone to protect Lucy.
If it was an alter who had clashed with me dozens of times over the past 5 years, I could trust his skills.
Zek-.
At that time, Archbishop Hugo stood up.
“There is nothing more base to hear than the cries of a loser. Sir Benjamin. Come in! Come in and drag that bastard away!”
As Yugo shouted in a cracked voice, a giant who appeared to be over 2 meters tall appeared carrying a large iron ball.
He was wearing a lion skin around his head, and had a strong appearance just like Hercules from some myth.
His muscles were like rocks and his palms were as big as wagon wheels.
“Kusan. Let’s go.”
As far as I knew, that man with a heavy voice was Benjamin, the 6th knight, known as the ‘giant’ of the Garud region.
Most of the gold-plated knight Benjamin and the knights under him come from discriminated ethnic groups and were influenced by Archbishop Hugo.
He had high loyalty and high combat power.
“Naib. “I will transport the criminal away.”
The giant Benjamin said.
The gold-plated knight, Naive, seemed to be watching in various ways and clicked his tongue.
“Do whatever you want.”
“Let go of this!” Let go of this!!! I am the Pope! I am the leader! Hyde you guy!!! Ahhh! “Let go of this!!!”
Cusan struggled and was dragged out by people.
Tangerung-.
It’s quite nice to see the funny ivory crown hanging from his head fall to the floor.
After picking it up, I placed it on top of Lucy’s head.
Then he raised his clenched hand high and shouted.
“Long live Pope Lucy Emma Gregory!”
“Hurray!”
“Long live Lucy Emma Gregory!”
The priests chanted the same story with me.
They began to applaud louder, as if competing for loyalty, and Archbishop Hugo also raised his hands and said:
“Long live Lucy Emma Gregory!”
Now the only one sitting was Archbishop Archibald.
Archibald had a rather serious expression on his face, and in some ways he looked gloomy.
However, he also soon stood up and spoke.
“May the will of the Lord Elohim be with the new Pope Lucy Emma Gregory.”
This was unanimous.
The third adopted child, Atalanta, who was watching this scene amidst continued applause and cheers, trembled.
“To bring down the real Pope. Hyde. Even though I knew he was crazy. “There has never been anything like this before in the history of the denomination, and it will never happen again.”
Can’t you believe what I did?
Of course I knew it would happen like this.
“Well, I am—.”
At that time, Lucy hesitantly opened her mouth.
One by one, the people who were applauding stopped their hands, cheered, and then closed their mouths.
The chairman of the council, which had over 100 people in attendance, was instantly enveloped in silence.
A conference hall where even the sound of breathing disappeared.
Lucy, who was looking inside, seemed a little embarrassed.
“Kyuiing…”
Miss Watson looking at her friend Lucy with slightly worried and anxious eyes.
I said to her.
“It’s okay. “I trust Miss Lucy.”
I don’t trust anyone.
In the first place, others are beings that should be loved, not trusted.
Faith is a vertical thing that must be directed only to the Lord Elohim.
Nevertheless, the people I could trust even a little were the ones who did their part well no matter what happened.
Soon Lucy looked at me and clenched his fists as if he had decided something.
“I don’t know anything. I couldn’t even see my father’s face… Also, I never thought I would become a Pope. But I promise I will do my best if I have to!”
Lucy’s voice was trembling, but it contained quite a bit of power.
Everyone must have felt the sincerity.
“I want the world to be a little better. Rather than fighting and blushing, we will heal our wounds together and create a world where we can trust each other!”
That was when Lucy made a big decision.
People began to admire one by one.
“Look at that.”
“It’s the same light as Gregory. It is the quality of a king… !”
“It’s a miracle! It’s a miracle!”
People opened their mouths and shouted as they saw the white light shining behind Lucy’s head.
Behind Lucy’s head, a dazzling white light, just like the one I had seen on Pope Gregory, was floating and turning like a gear wheel.
Wooooow-.
Lucy’s appearance, illuminated by the dazzling light, looked very holy, like a saint or queen from a story, and even looked like an angel.
The hands of the priests, who had been applauding continuously, were now so overwhelmed with emotion that they could not help but clenched their hands as if praying.
“Lord-.”
“Thank you for letting me be here today─.”
Medici Archibald caressing his chin while everyone is praying thanks.
He spoke softly.
“… Did you take over as expected? It seems that the qualities of a king are passed down from parents to children, as expected. It was the same during the time of Redfox and Cusan.”
Archbishop Hugo also responded to his words.
“I see. Medici. It’s like the karma of original sin that is passed down through blood. A king is not made. “It’s something you’re born with ordained by God.”
# # #
“Hyde! I was so nervous! I just said this without even knowing what I was talking about, but I’m glad everyone liked it! Furthermore, I did my best! Did you do well?”
The seat of the council was abandoned.
Lucy came towards me waiting in the hallway and shouted wildly.
I said that to Lucy.
“You did very well. Although it was Hyde who brought down Cusan, it was His Holiness Lucy’s sincerity that captured the hearts of the priests.”
To be honest, Lucy wasn’t very eloquent and couldn’t speak well.
But he didn’t have to.
Because a leader who stands above the heads of the people must have ‘opinions’, not ‘words’.
It can be expressed as an idea that leads the world.
Lucy’s idea of wanting to stop war and make the world a warm place touched the hearts of the priests and made them helpers of Lucy.
Appealing one’s feelings to others-.
Isn’t that the power of a king that Lucy was born with by inheriting Gregory’s blood?
However, Lucy, who was so great, looked down as if she was somehow embarrassed.
“… Be holy toward me! Hyde! You don’t have to do that to me! And I’ve thought about it for a long time, but I think Hyde… Me that… I hope you feel comfortable calling me… !”
Lucy twisted his body as if telling a very embarrassing story.
It must be Lucy’s sincerity.
I can feel Lucy’s emotions well.
I decided to respond to this sincerity.
“Then shall we do that?”
“Yes!”
It’s easy to talk to the newly inaugurated pope.
I knew it was against etiquette, but since Lucy made such an earnest request, it was not right for me to refuse.
Of course, Miss Watson, who was watching this from the side, said, “Ying…” .” He made an incomprehensible sound and opened his narrow eyes.
Lucy hugged Miss Watson.
“A little while ago! Thanks for letting me know when Kusan is about to use some sinister magic! “If Miss Watson hadn’t been there at that time, terrible magic might have attacked us!”
That was also correct.
Kusan guy.
I talked about the power of “Fulfilling promises” And all that, but I knew full well that they would use dirty tricks behind my back.
I can’t believe you’re trying to use “Instant Death Magic”.
For reference, “Magic of Instant Death” Was a magic that made the hearts of people around you stop by chanting a spell for about a minute.
To be honest, I thought it was such a useless spell that I wondered if it would be better to just pick up a knife and swing at the person next to me rather than spend a minute chanting it to stop the heart.
“Hyde. “It was great.”
Zek-.
At that time, someone came towards me.
He was a cripple with an amputated leg and his arm was also prosthetic.
Archbishop Hugo.
I bowed my head slightly when he appeared.
“Thank you.”
“To be honest, I didn’t believe you. Not that I thought you would lose to Kusan. “I meant that I thought you would try to sit in the Pope’s chair.”
I’m going to become a pope?
It was a very terrible story.
What I wanted to become was not a king, but a pastor who ministered more passionately than anyone else.
“So. With the consent of the priests and the Pope, we have decided to award you a golden cross. The youngest Archbishop, Hyde. “Your name will remain in history for a long time.”
Zek-.
Hugo took off the gold cross hanging from his neck and held it out towards me.
Lucy accepted it and hung it around my neck, which was quite touching.
“Hyde. Congratulations! Gold suits you well!”
How much time did it take for me, who fell into the path of a cult early on, to get here?
To be honest, it hasn’t even been a year since I started living a new life.
It was supposed to be like this.
Yes.
This was the providence prepared for me.
I thought there was something I should do using my authority to celebrate becoming archbishop.
“Now, I have to distribute all volumes of ‘Village of Back Alley Nymphs’ to the citizens of Barakhan. That is the way to make the world peaceful.”
“Good idea!”
Lucy also nodded her head at my opinion.
With that feeling, I distributed all volumes of “The Village of the Back Alley Nymphs” To everyone throughout Barakhan.
Naturally, people loved it!
