"What is dirty? What is unclean, what is unclean? Why do you think our great Lord and Blue Star Mother created them?"
Hearing Reina's question, Gregory's eyes widened.
A long time ago, about a hundred years ago, he heard her ask the same question.
Gregory is a student of Theology at the College.
He wasn't sure if he wanted to be a priest or a paladin.
But even then, he had the same convictions as he does now.
He used to get up earlier than anyone to pray.
He used to go to work in the fields earlier than anyone else.
He practiced martial arts harder than anyone.
No one in the class could keep up with Gregory.
Gregory, in particular, shares a dorm with a poor student who has trouble reciting scriptures.
Because of his faith, Gregory didn't notice it.
Since this person was not skilled enough, Gregory was rightly embarrassed.
But one day, Gregory was called by his teacher.
He thought he wanted to praise his professionalism, but he didn't expect the teacher to have a serious expression.
"What is the most just thing for you? Don't you think you should help the person you share a room with?
"I believe faith and loyalty are things you work on to see, and it's something you practice on your own without help.
The teacher looked at Gregory.
The teacher sighed: "You will be better than anyone else, but you will never be a Saint.
At that time, Gregory considered his teacher's words trivial.
Because not just anyone can become a saint.
Since then, he has lived for more than a hundred years, and he has never even thought about what his master said.
...until he heard Reina's question.
"Holy Pope, I live to this day only in the service of God, because of the denomination and work of this empire.
Gregory's tone was lighter than before: "I was too stubborn and dull, and the Pope's words didn't reach my heart at all. However, I will try my best to understand more people in the future."
Having said that, Lei Na smiled, and Lin Qing just sighed.
The Juggernaut's test is complete.
However, Lin Qing couldn't calm down.
Grand Duke Gregory's eyes were still dissatisfied with him.
It's going well for now, but Lin Qing can't help worrying about the difficulties she will face in the future.
After the end of the turmoil, Reina and Lin Qing were ordered by the Grand Duke to return to the Legion and the Holy Guard who were searching.
Terrified of assassination, the men were delighted to hear that their pope had returned safely.
If anyone was happier, it was Victor.
Zhang Peng, who finally saw Leina after two years, held her hand and shed tears.
"I'm very sorry, Sir Zhang Peng, I acted like a spoiled child."
"Not at all, princess, since I see that you are fine, I can die too."
"Die, never say that."
Lin Qing glanced at the reunion of the two, then turned to look at Grand Duke Gregory.
Gregory didn't seem to show much anger when he looked at Zhang Peng, but his eyes were as unhappy as when he looked at Lin Qing.
Gregory noticed that Lin Qing was staring at him, looked back at him coldly, and asked.
"What do you see me doing?"
"That's it...nothing interesting.
Now that he had spoken, Grand Duke Gregory asked Lin Qing.
"Is the attack you used just now the Titan Blade? Doesn't it look like Luo's sword skill?"
"Yes, this is one of my skills." Lin Qing replied.
How would Gregory react if Lin Qing told him the truth?
Lin Qing was curious about his reaction, but he had already lost his chance.
"Your attack is strong and powerful. Are you always looking for opportunities?"
"Yes, it looks like you threw away half of the golden sword...but in fact, you didn't."
Hearing Lin Qing's words, Gregory nodded.
In fact, Gregory did not give up the golden sword.
He resented the sword skills that made him a Juggernaut.
The Golden Sword is so impressive and so different.
Even after discovering that it was only half of the real thing, he kept trying to develop it.
Known after a few strikes, it has become a familiar part of going, even chopping is no exception. "
"Yes, because your eyes saw."
However, Lin Qing's mastery of the golden sword, as well as Gregory's sword skills, are not just the result of his several months of practice.
Because, in the process of fighting against Gregory, Lin Qing's memory flashed the scene of fighting with the sword warrior Luo in the past.
At that time, he could not understand the characteristics of this sword, but this time, he was able to grasp it.
That's why it was possible to find Gregory's flaws.
"When fighting him, I kept thinking about Luo's sword skills and skills. So, can I find the second part of the golden sword..."
Lin Qing was thinking.
Inside the Pope's barracks, a paladin had already rushed in, looking at Grand Duke Gregory.
What's the matter with you in such a hurry?"
"Urgent report from the Regent," replied the paladin.
"Bishop Tandin?"
The expression on the paladin's face was strange.
After seeing the report, Gregory's face also became distorted.
"what happened?"
Gregory answered Reina's question as calmly as possible.
"Suleiman of Rangel's territory, he is invading the capital."
"How... How many people are there in their army?" Reyna asked.
"About 50,000. The power of the capital is probably hard to match."
After a little thought, Na immediately gave the order.
"Please prepare now, we cannot let the capital fall into the hands of the rebels."
"Understood, my lord."
The Grand Duke glanced at Reina after hearing the order.
He was worried that she would try to get him to leave, and then follow Lin Qing out of there, but there was no such sign.
On the contrary, she tried harder than before to present the image of a leader.
When Gregory moved out of the barracks (Qian Zhao's), Lin Qing and Zhang Peng were still troubled.
"Do you want to go back immediately?" Lin Qing asked.
"By the way, princess, shouldn't the army quell the rebellion?" Zhang Peng said.
They already knew that taking Reyna away would be a very difficult task.
Because even if it is not Grand Duke Gregory, there will be many people who are against them.
However, they do not know whether Reina will actively participate in the work of the Holy Empire.
"I'm sorry, you came here to find me...but there are some things that I need to deal with."
"What's the matter?" Lin Qing asked.
"For the stability of the Holy Arthurian Empire."
Many people in the capital have witnessed the miracles created by Lena, so their trust in Lena is much stronger than in other parts of the empire.
But what happens if the capital is captured by rebels?
If the capital falls into the hands of the rebels, the number of rebel attacks will occur frequently, and the suffering of the common people will be more serious. .
